I've been offered Shane Vereen for Kelvin Benjamin. On the fence with this one. Benjamin could turn out to be a stud this year

That was my story last year. Deep league or did you pass on a lot with Ingram being your #3?
I actually just picked Ingram up for last week after I finally cooled on Toby Gerhart...it's an auction league with 3 keepers (at $5 higher value than whatever they were last year), so I think the only "stud" RB left after keepers was Peterson (and I'm quite glad I didn't end up with him, because I tried like hell)...

Our scoring system is unique to say the least, so QBs and defenses are worth more than in most leagues, and with the advent of the passing stats, stud wideouts are more valuable than all but 4-5 backs, so I targeted wide outs (ended up with Green, Crabtree, R White, and Maclin, Green and Crabtree were ultra cheap keepers).

Odds are that he doesn't play.

On a Lovie Smith team, you only need a RB and the defense. Didn't anybody pay attention in Chicago? QB and WR are not needed.

Starting Frank Gore is usually a no brainer. But he's up against a Cardinal's D that has been stingy with RB's. AND Gore doesn't have a great track record against division rivals.

My only option is Pierre Thomas. With Ingram out, is it a good idea to start Thomas over Gore?

I'm hoping NO leans heavy on Khiry Robinson, personally. So I'm going to suggest that you stick with Gore :)

Actually, Khiry is a good point. Maybe I'll stick with Gore...

Who should I start at QB, though. I want to go with Brady because I hate the Raiders. But Brady's been SO lackluster (again!) this year. He hasn't gotten me a double digit week yet. But it's Oakland! Surely, he's gonna light up Oakland, right?

If not Brady, then I have to go with Cousins or Dalton. And without AJ Green (potentially) Dalton worries me.

I don't know.
