How will the Houston Texans do this season?
Asked in: Andre Davis, Andre Johnson, Arian Foster, Derrick Ward, Houston D/ST, Jacoby Jones, Joel Dreessen, Kevin Walter, Matt Schaub, Neil Rackers, Owen Daniels, T. J. Yates

2Anthony Best
There Defense did look suspect up til everyone else in their division has decided to go with a new QB.. But I feel they are the sleeper DEF this season.. They might surprise some people. And u can't forget about just how good their offense is.. even without Foster.

I have the first overall pick. Who should I take?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson, Ray Rice, Drafting, Running Backs

1Sean Weinstock
I'm always going with AP, but that's probably biased and unfair. numberFire, what do you think?

Arian Foster v. Ray Rice as a keeper?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Ray Rice, Houston Texans, Baltimore Ravens, Joe Flacco, Matt Schaub, Anquan Boldin, Andre Johnson

1Ashley Sanders
I'd go with Arian Foster myself. He's tops on my draft board and I think he's tops here as well. I definitely think Ray Rice is headed for a big year but I also think that Foster is a total beast in a great offense with almost zero chance of splitting carries with someone.

Draft theory: 12 Man and 6 point passer TD
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady

1Keith Goldner
In a 6-point pass TD league the top tier of QBs improve. While RBs may still be the value picks in the beginning, it's more important in this kind of league to get one of the top 5 guys: Rodgers, Manning, Brees, Rivers, Brady. Because of the pass TD totals, they separate themselves a little more from the Ryan/Flacco types. Schaub could go either way. Check out the draft kit to see how the overall ranks are affected by 6-pt pass TDs. That should give you a good idea of the positions relative value.

Would you take Arian Foster first overall?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson

1Stacy Robert Reagan
I think I would in a league with standard scoring... I got him very late last year on a couple of my teams and he helped me to a great year. I do hate that he lost his fullback but I think a hopefully improved Texan DEF(big if) may get him some more touches running out the clock at the end of games...

How great did Arian Foster look over the weekend? Damn.
Asked in: Houston Texans, Running Backs, Arian Foster

2Stacy Robert Reagan
He made the Saints look like chumps... if he stays healthy looks like another big year on the way and me with zero #1 picks in any of my leagues... Rats !!!

Lions and Texans in the playoffs this year?
Asked in: Detroit Lions, Detroit D/ST, Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Houston Texans, Houston D/ST, Matt Schaub, Arian Foster, Andre Johnson

1Ben Johnston
I think the Lions will just miss a playoff spot, finishing behind GB in their division and Dallas and New Orleans for a Wild Card spot. I have a feeling the Texans, on the other hand, will win their division this year and make the playoffs.

What do you think of going WWQRRW @ 7 pos. in an 8 man league?
Asked in: Mike Williams (TB), Ahmad Bradshaw, Arian Foster, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Roddy White

4Matt Gregg
First and foremost, you should always draft for value ahead of position. That said, it's also good to pay attention to who's coming off the board by position, so keep a cheat sheet on hand. I agree w Anthony, you have to get a solid RB in the first two rounds in PPR--then shoot for the best available WR/RB in 3/4. I'd try and take a QB in the 5th since this is an 8 man league.

Is it still worth drafting Foster in the 1st round if he's going to be out 3-4 weeks?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Houston Texans

3Anthony Romanelli
maybe later in the 1st round or early in the 2nd. Too bad this injury couldn't have happened two weekends ago or I would have known better.

Who is the Texans RB2?
Asked in: Arian Foster

1Ashley Sanders
I'm pretty sure it's Ben Tate.

10 team draft and i have pick #4. It's not a ppr league. who do i take?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Jamaal Charles, Ray Rice

1Keith Goldner
Whoever is available out of: Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Ray Rice, Chris Johnson

If Foster is out do you pick up Ward or Tate?
Asked in: Houston Texans, Running Backs, Arian Foster

3Daniel Okopnyi
Most sports sites are saying to go with Tate, but I heard the coach talking about putting in Ward because he is seasoned. Bottom line he wants to start the season with a Vet.

I have already entered emails twice now to get the draft kit and now even when I enter more emails It won't let me click submit. What's going on?
Asked in: New York Giants, New York Jets, Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson

0Daniel Okopnyi
Here's an idea, don't post it to the questions pertaining to players and leagues, tagging it with those players. Try the FAQ, Suggestions/Bug Fixes or contact someone on the Forums. Otherwise, I don't think the regulars here can help you friend!

Any thoughts on Arian Foster for week 1?
Asked in: Arian Foster

1Ashley Sanders
I'd be worried. Who else do you have, Caleb?

if foster is hurt,,start derik ward or tashard choice? or pick up gore or drew's backup?
Asked in: Arian Foster

1Jd Dre
If you meant to say Gore's backup or Drew's backup, first I would probably play Ward, but Ben Tate will get looks also. You need to take the guy that will get the most touches, regardless of the team they are on.Keep an eye on this first weekend, see if Detroit uses Harrison, etc.

TRADE:
Asked in: Aaron Rodgers, Mike Williams (TB), Philip Rivers, Arian Foster

0Nik Bonaddio
What's the trade? It looks like it got cut off.

I got foster, mcfadden, and wells. now if foster is a game day decision should i just put wells
Asked in: Arian Foster, Houston Texans, Darren McFadden, Beanie Wells

1numberFire, inc.
Good question! I'd go DMC. Beanie is good but unproven, at least you know what you're getting with DMC.

If Foster is out.. do I play Ward or Marshawn Lynch from my bench?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Marshawn Lynch, Derrick Ward

1Nate Tharp
Ward is risky as he's not a lock for starter carries, but I like his match-up better than Lynch's.

Foster Out: should I play Ben Tate or Knowshon Moreno?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Knowshon Moreno

0PEJ
I like Moreno. Not sure how Tate and Ward are going to split.

if foster is out: Ward versus Moreno?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Derrick Ward, Knowshon Moreno

4Daniel Okopnyi
I would say run with Moreno.. he is the main starter.. seems the rule of thumb is if you have a solid starter (despite the skill set) more touches = better chances at yards scoring.

Is there any reason not to drop Thomas Jones? (non-ppr)
Asked in: Thomas Jones, Running Backs, Wide Receivers, Lesean McCoy, Mike Tolbert, Arian Foster, Danny Woodhead, Larry Fitzgerald, Santonio Holmes, Hines Ward, Michael Crabtree, Nate Burleson, Ricky Williams, Dexter McCluster, Jordy Nelson

0Keith Goldner
There is no reason not to drop him. I was forced to drop him last week after the Manning injury. I would pick up Jordy to secure your WR as your RBs are already pretty stacked.

Do I start a banged up Arian Foster or a healthy Jahvid Best who is playing a really weak K.C. Defense?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Jahvid Best, Running Backs, Running Backs

1Nik Bonaddio
Great question, Josh. I still say stick with Foster. Best is way too inconsistent for my blood.

Should I start Arian Foster? He's questionable, plus playing against Miami. If he plays, I bet it will be limited. Should I start my bench (Reggie Bush or CJ Spiller) instead?
Asked in: Arian Foster

2Shannon Jones
I have Foster in one of my leagues and he is a start for me over B.Wells, but I think R.Bush is a good play I have him in another league that he is making the lineup over J.Best. C.J Spiller can ride the bench until they find a role for him.

Do you recommend playing on ESPN or Yahoo?
Asked in: Michael Vick, Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson, Ray Rice, Lesean McCoy

1Steve Morris
I prefer Yahoo just because that's what I'm used to. I find that managing my lineup and adding/dropping players is easier. I think ESPN's content (projections/articles) are more valuable though.

Vincent Jackson and Matthew Stafford for Mike Wallace, Sam Bradford, and Arian Foster?
Asked in: Vincent Jackson, Matthew Stafford, Mike Wallace, Sam Bradford, Arian Foster

2Frank Lenz
If you are confident in Romo's health than I would do it because of the upside of Foster. If not, then I wouldn't because you will need Stafford. Vincent Jackson/Mike Wallace are pretty much a wash.

Thoughts on trade?
Asked in: Matthew Stafford, Vincent Jackson, Julio Jones, Felix Jones, Jonathan Stewart, Kevin Kolb, Mike Wallace, Santonio Holmes, Jahvid Best, Arian Foster

1Nik Bonaddio
Wow. That is a blockbuster. It would depend on if Felix Jones is hurt and how healthy Arian Foster is, but I think I'd rather have the Kolb/Wallace side.

Trade ?
Asked in: Arian Foster

2Tom Maloney
I wouldn't take the trade, only because you're not getting a RB to replace the potentially explosive Foster. If it were Roddy White plus a solid RB, thats a different question. I wouldn't worry about Steve Smith long term. Sean Wienstock clearly didn't see the game this week, they were playing in a monsoon... Jerry Rice wouldn't have gotten him any points in that game either.

Apparently Arian Foster is practicing and will start on Sunday
Asked in: Arian Foster, Houston Texans, Pittsburgh D/ST

0Stacy Robert Reagan
I love a healthy Foster but I could see him in a time share with Tate as he gets back into it or pull up with a bad hamstring again...

What is Fred Jackson's trade value?
Asked in: Mike Wallace, Fred Jackson, Jason Witten, Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, Chris Johnson, Arian Foster, Steven Jackson, Greg Jennings, Ryan Mathews, Dwayne Bowe

1Keith Goldner
He's got a lot of value right now. If you're trading for him you probably have to give up a good amount. Out of the listed guys I would say comparables are: Wallace, Jennings, Mathews. Foster and Steven Jackson are tough because of the injuries.

pick 2 out of the 4 Rb's for this week. standard scoring
Asked in: Arian Foster

1Keith Goldner
I think I'd go with Fred Jackson and Bradshaw unless we find out for sure that Foster will get a full workload

Start 3 of these RBs, .5PPR
Asked in: Arian Foster, Daniel Thomas, Ahmad Bradshaw, Matt Forte, Roy Helu

0Keith Goldner
Yeah I like your thinking . I'd go Foster, Bradshaw and Forte

need to start 2 of the four nonppr
Asked in: Joseph Addai, Arian Foster, Beanie Wells, Frank Gore

1Jennifer Cornacchia
If Foster plays, then I would say Foster and Gore

Arian Foster or Mike Williams (TB) at flex?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Mike Williams (TB)

1Keith Goldner
I'd go Arian, supposed to be getting a good amount of carries

Cam newton and FJax for Arian Foster?
Asked in: Cam Newton, Fred Jackson, Arian Foster

1Anthony Best
I want to say yes, since Johnson is going to be out for a few weeks.. but Jackson is just as involved in the offense as Arian is. And Cam will be a solid backup in week 8! Rodgers bye, and Cam faces MIN!

big trade proposed to me
Asked in: Aaron Rodgers, Cedric Benson, Dez Bryant, Devery Henderson, Ben Roethlisberger, Vincent Jackson, Arian Foster, Michael Crabtree

4Donald Wharton
I would do it only if u have a running back to replace foster. Not a big time rb but someone who will put up respectable points. Rodgers is a beast and Big Ben is doing bad this season. I would do it

Who is your upset special pick for this week?
Asked in: Tom Brady, Arian Foster, Chris Johnson

0Anthony Best
Have to say Brady since I have Foster on my team in the money league!!

Week 6 line-up help!! for 2 teams
Asked in: Fred Jackson, Arian Foster, Vernon Davis

2Nik Bonaddio
Let's see..Foster and Jackson. Brady, and Torain.

Is this a soild starting line up
Asked in: Tony Romo, Arian Foster, Steven Jackson, Anquan Boldin, Steve Smith (CAR), Earnest Graham, Owen Daniels, New York Jets D/ST, Mike Nugent

1Anthony Best
I like it but, Boldin hasn't really been producing this year so far though and BAL is very tough against RB's

Thoughts on this trade... My A.Foster (HOU) for J.Best (DET) and D.Jackson (PHI)??
Asked in: Arian Foster, Jahvid Best, DeSean Jackson

0Anthony Best
Hate it.. Best is not Equal to Foster in any way!! My opinion.. I also don't see Best keeping up his good play. He did get lucky against Chi, but they are not as strong as they have been in the past. and except for CHI they have yet to face a good D.. wait til after this weeks game to decide,, See how he does against SF

Can I start Foster in week 6?
Asked in: Arian Foster

0Patrick Frank
Play Foster, don't be stupid.

Trade Eli for Daniel Thomas?
Asked in: Matthew Stafford, Eli Manning, Chris Johnson, Arian Foster, Daniel Thomas, Tim Tebow

1Anthony Best
I'd wait to see how he does after this week.. It's hard for me to say yes when he is on such a bad team! but they did just have their bye so I would wait to see how if at all improved! But I don't hate their schedule and you also want to see how his hamstring is.. I believe he has been limited

V-Jax for Dez Bryant?
Asked in: Vincent Jackson, Roddy White, James Starks, Earnest Graham, Arian Foster, Beanie Wells, Calvin Johnson, Dez Bryant

1Nik Bonaddio
Yeah, VJax is worth me for me as well. I may try to trade Graham while his stock is hot.

Need 2 out of 3?
Asked in: Ahmad Bradshaw, Fred Jackson, Arian Foster

0Jd Dre
I am going with Bradshaw, at home, against Miami, whose offense may not be on the field that much, and Jacobs is still out. After that, how do you sit Foster?

Should I attempt this trade?
Asked in: Steve Johnson, Ryan Mathews, Marques Colston, Arian Foster

3Mustafa Ashurex
I would- The Bills offense hasn't been doing a lot through SJ lately and Colston is the one Saints WR I'd play on a regular basis. Arian Foster needs no introduction. I say you do it and don't look back.

Rodgers trade
Asked in: Ben Roethlisberger, Aaron Rodgers, Ryan Mathews, Arian Foster

0Jameson Wooten
I'd have to get quite a bit to trade Rodgers and I honestly don't think that this is a good enough trade.

Should I do this trade?
Asked in: Lesean McCoy, Fred Jackson, Steve Smith (CAR), Greg Jennings, Wes Welker, Marques Colston, Calvin Johnson, DeMarco Murray, Frank Gore, Arian Foster

2Christopher James Anderson
So this is a 2-person league? How did you get all these guys? I don't know why you are giving up so much for Shady when Fred Jackson has been so solid. I would rather keep Jennings and play him instead of unpredicatable Colston. Plus I am worried that McCoy's success could wane if the Eagle's passing game suffers with Vick and Maclin injured, and defenses focus on the run more. Vick's mobility threat seems to open holes for McCoy.I would ask for more in the trade.

Need two RB's. Arian Foster vs Atl, LeGarrette Blount vs Car, BJG Ellis vs Ind, DeMarco Murray vs Ari
Asked in: Arian Foster, LeGarrette Blount

0Evan Scherer
Id take blount and foster....carolina has a horrible run defense and you can count on foster getting a lot of screen passes with an unexperienced qb
