    Two crappy 1-2 starts for me, and a really good start in salary cap.
    But my question is in the 12 team league I run. 2-1 start and atop my division, but major bye week and injury issues. Here's the situation:
    QB: Schaub
    RB: Coffee
    RB: ?
    WR: Ochocinco
    WR: Mason
    WR/RB: ?
    TE: ?
     
    Okay, so I have Steve Smith, Turner, & Celek on bye. Kevin Smith  and Dwayne Bowe are both gametime decisions for me. Have Barber & Choice, as well as Hasselbeck and Garcon on the bench. As of this moment, I don't have a TE to play this week. Should I:
    Start Bowe or Kevin Smith if they play at one spot, and then Barber at the other. Then I can drop Garcon & pick up H. Miller or Heap.
    Or do I just go ahead and play Barber & Choice regardless if either Bowe or K. Smith goes? And again drop Garcon. Or drop Choice for a TE and play Garcon? Don't think I like dropping Choice here, especially having Barber.
    If Kevin Smith & Bowe both don't play, then I'll have to start both Dallas backs anyway to be able to get a TE.
    And which TE would you play, H. Miller or Heap? Leaning to H. Miller
    AWWWW

    Oh, and in another league, we start 2 QBs. Definately playing Palmer, but for the other spot would you start Romo or Garrard? As bad as Romo has been the last 2 weeks, I'm seriously leaning to Garrard in a matchup in Jacksonville that could see some points scored.

    it sounds like kevin smith will be playing, so i would roll w/him for sure.  I don't trust garcon yet.  Are you in a ppr league or standard league?? I would go with heath miller.....heap is still very inconsistent, even though i think his ceiling is higher than millers......i'd roll w/miller though...plus sd never is that good at covering tight ends.  As for the flex, right now i would lean choice even if barber ends up playing.  Every source i've heard is saying that barber will start, but choice will carry more of the workload.  I'd definitely watch the morning news closely though to see how barber's health is.
    As for ur qb question.....i'd probably follow ur gut and put in garrard.....i don't think the denver d is as good as advertised, but i KNOW the titans pass d sucks....so garrard should be able to put up some decent numbers.

    Garrard has put up decent numbers thus far but historically struggles vs TENN
    Romo has not had a great start and is playin in Denver

    Go Garrard and hope he gets atleast 15pts
