Who is a more exciting player: Ryan Mathews or Tim Hightower?
Asked in: Ryan Mathews, Tim Hightower, Running Backs, San Diego Chargers, Arizona Cardinals
I wouldn't label either as being particularly exciting, but I think you gotta go with Mathews.
Who is a more exciting player: Ryan Torain or Tim Hightower?
Asked in: Ryan Torain, Tim Hightower, Running Backs, Washington Redskins, Arizona Cardinals
Hightower... solid ability plus he fumbles a bunch :) That's exciting if not good... Torain just gets hurt.
Will the Redskins have even a remotely decent season?
Asked in: John Beck, Washington D/ST, Washington Redskins, Santana Moss, Tim Hightower
Ha, nope. There are four games they have a chance at winning. @Carolina, @Buffalo, @Miami and @Seattle. They'll finish 3-13.
Who to start at flex Tim Hightower or Brandon Jacobs?
Asked in: Tim Hightower, Brandon Jacobs
Tim Hightower, definitely. I'm a HUGE fan of him this year. I think he's going to be ill.
Who is a better start: Beanie Wells or Tim Hightower?
Asked in: Beanie Wells, Tim Hightower, Running Backs
Tough Call, Beanie seems more proven, Hightower is the big sleeper. Go with your gut, but I would start Hightower. I think he has great potential, especially in this weeks match up.
Flex? Plaxico or Hightower?
Asked in: Plaxico Burress, Tim Hightower, New York Giants D/ST, Dallas D/ST
Who do you feel is a better Flex option for week #1 - Fred Jackson or Tim Hightower?
Asked in: Fred Jackson, Tim Hightower, Running Backs, Washington Redskins, Buffalo Bills
Hightower by a mile. He avg over 6ypc during the preseason. The NYG defense has been decimated by injuries. Keep an eye on Justin Tuck, he is a little banged up as well. I also think BUF will be playing from behind all day, thus no carries for FJ.
Who should I start: Rashard Mendenhall or Tim Hightower?
Asked in: Rashard Mendenhall, Tim Hightower, Running Backs
Hightower looked awesome in Week 1. I think it totally depends on the matchup. Mendenhall will be good as long as the Steelers don't face a defense that knows them inside and out.
Week 2, PPR league, choose 2, Blount, Moreno, Hightower, Woodhead, CJ spiller? Other than Hightower..nobody produced..any thoughts??
Asked in: LeGarrette Blount, Tim Hightower, Danny Woodhead, C.J. Spiller, Knowshon Moreno
I would start Moreno (if healthy - hasn't practiced this week) and Hightower. Woodhead and Spiller are wild cards. Blount's had 5 touches week 1 and faces a stiff vikings run defense. It appears Morris doesn't trust Blount yet, turning to Ernest Graham for the majority of the game.
Week 2, PPR league, choose 2, Blount, Moreno, Hightower, Woodhead, CJ spiller? Other than Hightower..nobody produced..any thoughts??
Asked in: Knowshon Moreno, Tim Hightower, Daniel Thomas, C.J. Spiller, LeGarrette Blount, Danny Woodhead
Hightower is definitely one. As for the other, I think I like either Blount or Spiller. Moreno and Spiller are definitely out.
Pick Two: Chris Johnson, Legarrette Blount, Beanie Wells, Jahvid Best, Tim Hightower, Ben Tate
Asked in: Chris Johnson, LeGarrette Blount, Beanie Wells, Jahvid Best, Tim Hightower
I would select Blount and Hightower. Blount will certainly receive more carries, and thus YPG, because Tampa showed their single dimensional air attack was poor. Hightower is Washington's feature back - and not in any form of timeshare - so I value him about Wells and Best, both of whom are often nicked up. I just don't see CJ2K producing this week. Johnson is still working himself into shape and I can't see him gathering yardage against Baltimore. However, since he was likely your first round pick and it is tough to put his potential on the bench, Johnson wouldn't be the longest stretch.
Foster's going to play so which of these 2 would u pick for the 2nd back? standard scoring Bradshaw or Hightower
Asked in: Ahmad Bradshaw, Tim Hightower
Hightower. Bradshaw's splitting carries and playing a better defense.
how will things shake out in the Washington RB situation? helu had a nice second half on sunday, and shanahan is notorious for RBBC...does hightower maintain starter value or no?
Asked in: Tim Hightower, Roy Helu, Washington Redskins, Running Backs
I think it will end up close to an even split between the two under Shanahan. I wouldn't think either of the guys are better options than flex plays.
Mike Williams (TB) and Chris Johnson for Brandon Marshall, Fred Jackson, and Tim Hightower
Asked in: Mike Williams (TB), Chris Johnson, Brandon Marshall, Fred Jackson, Tim Hightower
I wouldn't do that. CJ is by far the best player in that deal (although he has been awful so far).
Tim Hightower, Fred Davis, Santonio Holmes for Michael Turner
Asked in: Tim Hightower, Fred Davis, Santonio Holmes, Michael Turner
Yeah, that strikes me as way too much. I don't think Hightower alone is all that far off from Turner.
Will starting Chris Johnson leave me filled with self-loathing in a 2RB/flex league?
Asked in: Chris Johnson, Tim Hightower, Pierre Thomas, LeGarrette Blount, Darren Sproles
You took him in the first round so you have to play him. This should be his breakout week now that he's had plenty of reps in the offense and should be getting out of "lockout mode". If he doesn't put up decent number after this week 1. I'd be worried, 2. I would bench him until he proves otherwise.
Who gets the start at my flex in PPR League Hightower, Best, Mike Thomas, or Branch?
Asked in: Jahvid Best, Tim Hightower, Mike Thomas, Deion Branch
I think you have to go with Best here. He's been one of the most productive PPR RBs this season (I think he's 6th). While your other options aren't that bad, Best just seems like the clear play.
Who should I pick up off of the Waiver wire?
Asked in: Tim Hightower, Daniel Thomas, Beanie Wells, Fred Davis, Vernon Davis, Kendall Hunter
Wow, if you can trade either TE for Blount, do it. Big value, unless you are already stacked at RB, or there are no decent options for TE on the wire. Of the 3 RB pickups, I'd say Thomas. Seems like he has won that job in Miami.
Should I trade Bowe for Hightower
Asked in: Dwayne Bowe, Tim Hightower
your rb's seem a little weaker than your receiver spot. i guess you're playing for the bye week with receivers. decker seems to be hot news these days, but i don't know how much i trust denver. who do you start right now at the flex?
Pick 1 for Flex - Hightower, Davone Bess, Gore or Starks
Asked in: Tim Hightower, Davone Bess, Frank Gore, James Starks
Hightower unless Gore is fully healthy but I don't think he is.
Pick 1 for Flex - Hightower, Davone Bess, Gore or Starks
Asked in: Tim Hightower, Davone Bess, Frank Gore, James Starks
I think Starks is going to get back on track, but the PPR changes the picture because Rodgers has a ton of targets. Hightower's probably a good choice here.
Hightower or Torain? Need help at RB and Flex
Asked in: Ryan Torain, Tim Hightower, Daniel Thomas, Darren Sproles, Peyton Hillis, Pierre Garcon
I would roll with Torain here.. I always like RB's at flex spot and HIghtower has been limited all week with his shoulder.. so you should go with Hillis, Sproles and Torain
Battle of the backups! Who to start this week- Hardesty (vs. Seattle), Hightower (vs Car and Shanahan), Morris Morris (vs Atlanta)?
Asked in: Montario Hardesty, Tim Hightower, Maurice Morris
I'm not a big fan of any of these guys, but I think Hardesty is your man. Even though he'll be facing a stout Seahawks defense, it looks like Hillis will almost definitely be out on Sunday, making him the only starting back of the three. Even if Hightower plays, he's coming off an injury, and Shanahan is unpredictable with his RBs. Keep an eye on Jahvid Best's health, though - if he sits, I'd play Morris over Hardesty.
