Week 7 Fantasy Help

Need a QB due to bye weeks who do I try to get through waivers:
Kevin Kolb, Sam Bradford, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Brandon Weeden, Josh Freeman, Jay Cutler, Mark Sanchez, Blaine Gabbert, Matt Hasselbeck.

I would say Cutler should have a good week against a poor Lions D Derby.

Go for my Jay Cutler

I've kept Cutler in a few leagues simply because of his matchup this week when most of my QBs are on bye's
I'm starting him in all four of my leagues

606V2 West - no other QB
606V2 Keeper - Matt Ryan on Bye
NFL Winners League - Peyton Manning on Bye
NFL Winners League #2 - Phillip Rivers on Bye

After that I'd take Fitzpatrick as the Bills should put up some points on the Titans

I have a couple of selection choices to make, and I have White, Turner, and Decker all on bye weeks.

So I need 2 WRs out of: DHB, Ogletree and Manningham
2 RBs out of: Greene, Bolden, Goodson
A TE out of: Fleener or Cook
And one of the above not playing to start in flex...

My first thoughts are DHB/Manningham, Greene/Bolden, Cook, and Goodson in the flex.

I'm the same, my starting QB and offensive player are both on bye weeks and am struggling to bring in cover

I only had the choice of Gabbert, Ponder and Weedon so have gone with the latter two, all other choices would s only see game time if there was an injury to starting QB

Hoping for big numbers from Foster on the ground and Cruz through the air to stand any chance of winning my h2h this week

Very tempted to just accept week 7 as a loss in one of my leagues as I have Rivers, Bush, Jones, White, Bowe all on Byes plus Garcon is potentially out which means I only have one WR.

I think I would go pretty much the same as you Sodhat but would play Fleener as the flex.

Bench of: Philip Rivers, Reggie Bush, Chris Johnson, Roddy White, Julio Jones and Dwayne Bowe which one do I cut? And who do I add Mike Williams vs Saints or Steve Johnson vs Titans?

I'd be tempted by Bowe out of those because of the quarterback issues at Kansas.

I have Roddy White and he is consistent, and with Jones on your team too I think it looks pretty good at WR, and Bowe is a clear 3rd choice.

I'd say add Mike Williams because the Saints defense is looking poor. So long as you trust Freeman to have a good game!

Well I just picked up Freeman so I don't have issues with trusting him.

Last week I dropped RG3 for Luck in one league as Luck was coming off the back of a huge week and RG3 was questionable.

This week Luck faces the Browns and RG3 is up against a tough Giants defence. Should I stick with Luck?

I would Mikey. The Giants tend to play well against mobile qb's and I expect Luck to bounce back well this week

For a full picture my current starting line up is:
QB: Dalton + Freeman
RB: C.J. Spiller
WR: Miles Austin and need one more.
TE: Cook + Hernandez
Flex: Darren McFadden

I would say Luck but it's not as obvious as it seems Browns coming off the win should be riding high and looking for more while they hit a team they have a chance against.

I would go for Williams and Johnson and drop Austin Derby but thats just me!

I wouldn't drop any of them.
Take the hit, play one man down. You don't really want to give up any of your bench guys.
I presume your in a dual QB league, otherwise i'd drop one of them.

James Jones (@ STL) or Dez Bryant (@ CAR)?

Agree with crazy_dave, your line up could still win you the matchup, if not I would rather not be giving up a guy like Bowe.

Dez for me. Played well last week, James Jones will be up against either Cortland Finnegan or Janoris Jenkins, both have been pretty good this year

Have added Mike Williams for Miles Austin do still need another WR if I want to be full strength.

2 receivers from Britt, Austin and Devery Henderson...

Hmmm...

I'd take Austin as I figure Dallas has to beat Carolina and Romo will still give him looks... it's not like Bryant has ever been massively consistent... and maybe gamble on Henderson (your best placed to comment on the ability of the Buccs defence to stop Brees)

Mike Goodson (JAC) or Danny Woodhead (NYJ) at RB?

Yes it has got that bad...

erm... Goodson?

Pundits have been rating RunDMC's chances against Jacksonville, so go with the backup there

Woodhead could be 3rd string, could be 4th string - though does get a couple of passing looks. Still its tough to roll with him!

Bolden might be out this weekend though and Woodhead is ahead of Vereen in carries. Probs 2nd string this weekend. Tough call

Jared Cook or JerMichael Finley?

Case of pick your poison there.

Titans will likely run over the Jets and Finley is less than 100% and inconsistent at best

Titans are playing the Bills, but the point remains relatively true.

I'd possibly roll with Finley as the Rams CBs are decent and that could limit the WRs?

4 from: Matt Forte, Antonio Brown, Torrey Smith, Rob Gronkowski, Kyle Rudolph.

Forte, Smith, gronk and brown.

Forte, Smith, Gronk and Rudolph

2 RB, 2WR and one flex from Alfred Morris, MJD, Ridley, Austin, Devery Henderson and Britt.

2RB: MJD, Ridley
2WR: Henderson, Britt
Flex: Morris

Pr4wn I would start Miles Austin over Henderson every day of the week

All my fantasy teams are conspiring to annoy me. I'm up against someone who isn't even active and only has 4 players not on their bye week, but so far Chris Johnson and Doug Martin alone are beating me.
