Ok,

I'm dropping Ellis.  I got some bad info on him.  Multiple sites said he was staying in the lineup.  But again, that's why I'm here - I can't watch all the games and so many sites have bad info.

I was going to wait for a few more solid weeks before I put Weatherspoon in since James is a solid 10 pts every week but I'll go ahead and put him in on your info.  It's great that he's in on nickel D!  I didn't think he'd be in there so soon.  That's great news for how well he's picking up the D!

As for Allen - I know you think I should drop him but I'm going to give him another week or two.  In my 16 team league with 2 DB each that means that the top 32 DB's *should* be gone.  I think his tackles might go up and since he's a rookie I think he's worth holding for a little bit since I have no injuries yet and have a little wiggle room on my bench.  It's just so hard to tell how much of a playmaker he's going to be and what his learning curve will be.  All that being said - he's a DB and they are far easier to pick up in my league than any other position so I'll not bank on him too much.

Thanks for the info!
