Is Ahmad Bradshaw A PPR Viable RB?

Coming into the season, the expert community assumed Bradshaw would get the receptions departed RB Derrick Ward received in 2008 (41). Instead, he has just six through the Giants' 1st five games.

While this stat already surpasses the five balls he caught in 2008, it is still on pace for 18 catches on the season. A total that is decidedly un-PPR favorable.

Like Tony Romo last week, is this the week you give-up on Bradshaw as a 2-3 receptions per week option?

Week Three Start/Sit Pierre Thomas

Looking at a choice between New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas, New York Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw and Washington Redskins WR Santana Moss at my Flex.

I am leaning towards Bradshaw against a horrible Buccaneers defense.

Thomas worries me a little with all the talk of Lynell Hamilton and a concern about the knee.

Moss is intriguing as he gets a bad Lions team on turf. Looks like the typical 1 in 5 Moss explosion.

Fantasy Football: My Start/Sit Decisions

12-team PPR
WR Santana Moss over RB Ahmad Bradshaw at Flex
Why: Hunch Moss will get a long TD against the Rams pass defense.

QB Matt Schaub over Donovan McNabb
Why: Even if McNabb was active, I am not risking a 1st drive hit and losing McNabb for rest of game.

12-team PPR
WR Brandon Marshall over RB Ahmad Bradshaw at Flex
Why: Hunch that Marshall breaks. Damn tantalizing skills!

QB Matt Schaub over Jason Campbell
Why: Campbell has the better match-up, but Schaub has the better skills. Campbell and big passing yardage? Unheard of!

12-team non-PPR
RB Ahmad Bradshaw over RB Knowshon Moreno or RB Mike Bell
Why: Despite claiming 100% health, Moreno hasn't earned #1 status and Broncos unpredictable right now. Mike Bell is going against a quality defnese on the road and won't have the luxury of a large lead to run with.
