Soldier needs help - leaving for Iraq

Guys,

My best friend has just been notified that he is going to Iraq on Friday - he has trusted me to set up his lineup for the remainder of the season. I know a little about football but not as much as he does - I need your help on what to do with his lineup - who would you guys play? Thanks for your help.

QB (pick 1)

Big Ben or
David Garrard

RB (pick 2)

Brian Westbrook
Ernest Graham
Jamal Lewis

WR (pick 3)

Wes Welker
Santanio Holmes
Donte Stallworth
Patrick Crayton
Brandon Stokley
Jabar Gaffney

He has Cinci's Defense and Rian Lindell as his kicker

I don't see either Qb really lighting it up seeing how both defenses are good although Big Ben should fair better against J-villes pass defense ... so go with BigBen


RB (pick 2)

Brian Westbrook
Ernest Graham
Jamal Lewis

I would go with Graham and Lewis, they're both playing suspect run defenses with playoff implications on the line while Westbrook is going up against the Cowboys with nothing left to play for

WR (pick 3)

Wes Welker
Santanio Holmes
Donte Stallworth
Patrick Crayton
Brandon Stokley
Jabar Gaffney

The wide receivers don't look too spectacular but you always have the big game possibilities with Welker. I would go Welker, Holmes and Crayton

He has Cinci's Defense and Rian Lindell as his kicker

See if you can pick up a decent defense off waiver cuse Cincy won't do anything for you

Only reason why I wouldn't go with Westbrook is because Jamal Lewis has been lighting it up in his last 3 games and they're facing the Bills who rank 18th against the run while Westbrook is going up against the Cowboys who rank 4th against the run and are allowing an average of under 90 yards a game.

Right but the Cowboys usually get owned by recieving RBs, our LBs play the run great (last week withstanding) but our zone can easily be exploited by a RB coming out of the back field. I think Westbrook had a decent game earlier in the season against the Cowboys. I see him with close to 100 TOTAL yards and at least 1 socre.

Sorry if its a little late. I also agree, if you can pick up a defense, you should. Anything will be better than Cincinnati. Hope this helps!

Best of wishes to your friend!
