Kevin Curtis is out for week 1, and Steven Jackson probably won't be signed until partway in the regular season. What should I do?

Roster

QB - Matt Hasselbeck

RB - Steven Jackson

RB - Ryan Grant

RB/WR - Jamal Lewis

WR - Larry Fitzgerald

WR - Kevin Curtis

TE - Benjamin Watson

D/ST - Bears

K - Nick Folk

Bench

RB - Michael Turner

WR - Brandon Marshall (suspended)

WR - Isaac Bruce

WR - Derrick Mason

K - Stephen Gostkowski

TE - Kevin Boss

QB - Alex Smith (SF)

Answer 1

Definately drop Derrick Mason. When Stephen Jackson plays you will want to start him. Start Michael Turner.

Answer 2

I would start Michael Turner in Jackson's place and Isaac Bruce in Curtis' place for week 1.

Answer 3

Dont get rid of Jackson thats for 1.Bench him in place of Michael Turner.If he returns and plays you'll get a good late boost in the final half of your season.Bruce is the new number 1 in San Fran,use him instead of Curtis..it pay off trust me.Get rid of Derrick Mason however and pick up another back.

Answer 4

IDK but my dad won that last year!!

Answer 5

nice timing - Jackson ended his holdout, so your RB worries should be over. your only 2 options at WR (the old farts) are pretty solid, and both of them will probably be their team's #1. they both play for teams with extremely shaky QB situations, but look at the other options for SF & Baltimore- all of those guys are either inexperienced, inconsistent, injury prone, or any combination of the above. i think you're in pretty good shape. and when Marshall comes back you'll really be stylin'. i don't know how many teams in your league, but props for assembling a wicked RB stable. i'd just dump the backup kicker and that chump QB on your bench. take a gamble on more WRs or RBs. good luck.

Answer 6

Michael Turner may be a hidden gem for your team now that he will be out of LT's shadow. One week will not kill you in fantasy so play Bruce or Mason and hope for the best. Never thought I would see someone "sweat" the loss of Kevin Curtis. He had one, maybe 2 big weeks last year otherwise he is no better than the guys you have on your bench.
