Looks pretty solid to me. I'm debating my Vjax situation this week as well. Normally when a guy is coming back like that, I give them a "show me" week, but Rivers is playing out of his mind, and Vjax should benefit from that.

With VJax, I am banking that since San Diego lost Crayton and have a few other injuries in the WR corp, VJax may be getting tons of looks. It is a gamble, but I feel better about him then I did with Sydney Rice (another waiver wire pick up from the week before). Just hope he isn't sucking air. Even Rice got 11 looks last week, and VJax isn't coming off any injuries.

Yeah, I'm probably starting him as well. (unless someone gives me some solid advice to the contrary)

I considered picking up Rice, but the situation in Minn is so bad, I can't justify a spot on my roster for him. Dez Bryant and Mike Williams (sea) are probably my two worst WRs.

Talk about a stacked team... DAMN!

I don't know about your league, but in mine running backs score significantly more points than wide receivers. I'd definitely consider putting Tolbert at your flex position.

I am waiting a week on VJax too. I just have a ton of depth with my WRs so it's not a pressing situation even though I lost Hakeem Nicks for some time.
I am using Brandon Lloyd, Mike Wallace, and Reggie Wayne for the rest of the weekend(I used Santonio Holmes yesterday).

Your Tolbert suggestion has got my interest tweaked. I keep flip-flopping on him for Fitz at the flex, moving Johnson to WR.

Read that Fitz has never had a good Monday night game, best he has ever done is 46 yds on Monday Night. And I thought Tolbert was a good choice until I read John Clayton's article about playoff contenders this weekend. For some reason he makes it sound like Ryan Matthews is going to play. Decisions.

On the Vincent Jackson tip.

I probably will end up burning myself with VJ, but unlike Sydney Rice, he isn't coming off injury. Gamble but my other guys have tough matchups or are hurt.

Ryan Mathews has done jack for my team this year, even when healthy. Everything I've read says that Mathews is out for this next game. Even when he does come back, I still expect Tolbert to get the goal line carries. The dude weighs in at 245 lbs...how can they not give him the ball for a two yard run? I'd take him over Fitz personally.

Also: VJ looks scary this week. Even if he's not fully prepared, he's basically going to be forced the ball because Rivers has absolutely no one else to throw to. Malcolm Floyd and Antonio Gates are both out. Legedu Naanee and Patrick Crayton are both hurt too (unsure on whether they are playing or not).

Sigh. If I lose this week, and VJ has a huge game, I'm going to hate myself.

Looks like your caution on playing VJ was correct. Didn't think they wouldn't have him out there. Good thing the one league I have him starting, I am losing by 75 pts and teh other one I am comfortably ahead by 80pts with my opponent not having any more players left.
