Consensus Start and Sit Picks for Week 14

It's snowing today in Colorado - 2 to 3 feet up in the mountains! - even though it was 70 on Tuesday. Gotta love this crazy state. But that has nothing to do with football, which is why you're all really here. So I posted a bunch of start/sit links yesterday and Wednesday but there are of course several more that you may want to know about:
Okay, so who are the consensus picks this week? Remember, this isn't a must-start list, just recommendations across the board based on the most frequent start or sits from all of these links.
  • QB
    • Start: David Garrard, Drew Brees, Carson Palmer, Tony Romo (I can't believe I just had to type that), Big Ben, Derek Anderson, Matt Hasselbeck
    • Sit: Philip Rivers, Eli Manning, Kyle Boller, Sage Rosenfels, Kurt Warner
  • RB
    • Start: Ryant Grant, Jamal Lewis, Earnest Graham, Kolby Smith, Travis Henry
    • Sit: Frank Gore, Kevin Jones, DeShaun Foster, Laurence Maroney
  • WR
    • Start: Roddy White, Bobby Engram, Patrick Crayton, Torry Holt

This week I'm sitting Addai... can't believe I'm doing it, but I have Grant and Kolby so hopefully I'll be fine considering their matchups. Joe Addy just ain't been adding up to much lately, and Baltimore might be out for blood this week if the Pats game didn't knock 'em out.

Thanks for the links.

Any idea what Marion Barber's going to do against Detroit? He's a good runner, but he's just been inconsistent at times this season.
Thanks Freddie - always good to hear from you.

Glad to be of help, Sammy, and I actually just recommended sitting Addai to two people today that had better matchups. Addai has just been cold lately and the Ravens D can be troublesome...

Barber has a pretty decent history against the Lions - in their last 2 meetings, he's scored a total of 3 TDs. Not bad - I think he'll be a running machine on the Lions, especially when the Cowboys go up big on them and turn to the run.

Start Alge Crumpler.
Man, that's funny stuff.

David Garrard is money, though.

Back on the fantasy wagon

With my library conferences behind me (for a few weeks at least), I can now concentrate on fantasy football again. If you happen to be a librarian and are interested in how my co-presenter and I tied together fantasy football and information literacy, check out my co-presenter’s blog . Though I imagine most of you would much rather catch up on the following football news and thoughts for the week: I remain a bit dazed and confused by my certainty last summer that Cedric Benson was going to rock my RB2 world in 2007. Didn’t happen and now he’s moved onto ankle surgery, alleged intoxication and resisting arrest on boats. Awesome. You can practically taste Matt Forte’s value skyrocketing here. In fact, wondering about rookie RBs in general? Well then check out FF Xtreme’s The Day After: Ranking the Rookie Running Backs . I love reading articles or stats that challenge my preconceived notions – The Fifth Down’s Chad the Completion Percentage Machine does just that. No offense to thos

Streaming Defenses - Week 16

Don't know about you all, but in our house this week is just chock full of events, visiting with family, and getting organized for our upcoming time off over the holidays. Lots of scrambling going on around here and attempts to install some sense of gratitude in my boys. What am I grateful for this season? Many things but let's start with Bob. Bob has been my fantasy football rock, coming back week after week to post. Hats off to you, Bob, and thank you for your diligent work and research. So here he is with this year's final streaming defense post.  Well it’s the last week of the Fantasy Football Playoffs in most leagues, and my last post of the season. I hope you all found these posts useful. And if I failed you, you have to murder a lot more experts before you get to me. I myself have had a terrible playoff season. I’m out of all but one of my leagues due to the weird games the last two weeks. Between weather that didn’t materialize to normally consistent players co

Start/Sit Week 4 and a smattering of rankings

It's been awhile, my fantasy football friends. I have lofty intentions of getting several posts up here each week, but life is busy and I will do my best. So in the intervening 6 years since I've posted regularly on here, our family added another child (now there are 3!), moved back to Boulder for a sabbatical year and then returned to Knoxville, and we have basically been chugging along like many of the rest of you. My two boys (who turn 12 and 9 soon) are in a fantasy football league for the first time this year with their buddies, which ostensibly is the just the dads (and mom!) playing one another of course. But my oldest is taking it super seriously and what kind of Fantasy Football Librarian would I be if I didn't step up my game for him? So I'm back - and am interested in the fantasy landscape - lots of the same awesome sites out there, but many new ones as well. I'll try to incorporate a mix. Please be sure to let me know if my 2006 ways aren't working i
