FF: 10 minutes to make a decision

[kingnebwsu]

I'm in a yahoo league with standard yahoo scoring.

At WR, do I start Eddie Kennison (vs SF) or Keenan McCardell (@Bal)

[kingnebwsu]

Dola, I'm leaning toward Kennison because he's playing the weaker opponent. Even though neither Huard of KC or Rivers of SD is proven. McCardell is questionable for the game today also. They both are sucking bad so far this year, Kennison has 1 point total (obviously Green has been hurt) and McCardell has 2. Advice would be appreciated. If nothing changes, I'm just gonna start Kennison.

Kennison is the obvious choice. The Niners D still isn't great, and they'll be bringing a safety to try and stop Johnson. It probably won't be a great day for Kennison, but it'll be better than McCardell who, as you note, is Questionable, and is playing Baltimore, who have looked ridiculous on defense this year. I'd imagine San Diego will play it safe with Rivers by having him mostly throw short to LT & Gates today.

I would take Kennison too. McCardell is playing a good defense and I think RIvers will be on his back most of the day anyways...its really a horse a piece, but Kennison would get the nod for me.

Thanks a lot guys...hopefully he can at least match his season output of 1/3 point per game :)

Nice to see my logic is in line with people who know what they're doing (this is my 2nd year ever doing FF).

Hope my team can bounce back from a 1-2 start. Thanks guys!

I agree with Kennison as well. Therefore you should absolutely go with Keenan.

Good thing I went with Kennison. He just had a 30-some yard TD catch, his first of the year!!! He's got 9 fantasy points today and it's still the first half. This is the kind of game I've been waiting for from my WR's :)

My team was down 11 to -3, but now we're up 24 to 12. This first slate of games is key for me this week.
