Set your lineup the right way!

Don’t let the bye week throw a monkey wrench in your lineup. These are some guys you need to get into your lineup somehow if you can.

Steve McNair, Baltimore- He’s been putting the ball up a lot this year, and with 6 teams off this week, he’s definitely a must play against the sorry-a$$ Rams defense.

Damon Huard, Kansas City- Appears he’ll start, and if he does you have to consider him against the Bengals secondary minus a starting corner.

Jason Wright and/or Jerome Harrison, Cleveland- They are likely to split carries if Jamal Lewis can’t play, but they go against Miami so they should have an opportunity to put up numbers.

Monitor situations with Kenny Watson (Cin), Sammy Morris (NE), Dominic Rhodes (Oak), and Derrick Ward (NYG) with the injury status of the starters ahead of them.

Jerry Porter, Oakland- I have a feeling the Raiders are going to have to put it up early and often to keep up with the Chargers and Porter’s size will benefit him against the San Diego corners, who are on the small-side.

Dwayne Bowe, Kansas City- He is actually in the top 15 for all WR right now and gets a great match-up versus Cincy.

Braylon Edwards, Cleveland- I mention his name because if you have him and haven’t been starting him, you must be either loaded at WR or dumb. Get him in and leave him in.

The Jets and Eagles starting wide-outs are all good plays. Also strongly consider Derrick Mason is collecting a ton of catches (great for reception leagues) and even look at Mark Clayton and Demetrius Williams of Baltimore.

Andre Davis, Houston- He is getting a ton of looks over the last couple weeks and he actually resembles the talented player he was at Virginia Tech. He isn’t a bad play until Andre Johnson and Jacoby Jones return from injury.

If you are desperate, consider Nate Burleson and Bobby Engram who will start of the Seahawks this week.

There aren’t many top shelf guys to recommend benching on a week where six teams are on their bye, but here are a few to think about benching if you have a suitable replacement.

Gus Frerotte, St. Louis- Wouldn’t suggest playing him with a beat up offensive line, and no Issac Bruce against the Ravens.

Vince Young, Tennessee- He really struggled last week, and I think he’ll be fine over the season, but the Bucs in Tampa wouldn’t be a good spot for him to bounce back.

Ahman Green, Houston- He’s coming back this week, but you might want to keep him on your bench.

LaMont Jordan, Oakland- He may play, he may not, but based on Larry Johnson’s 12 yard effort last week, you might want to keep him reserved.

Brandon Jones, Tennessee- See Vince Young.

Santana Moss and Antwan Randle-El, Washington- Moss is coming back from injury, and Randle-El had an amazing first half last week before getting hurt, but the Packers corners are pretty good.

And of course, don’t forget not to play anyone on Buffalo, Denver, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Detroit, or San Francisco.

Good Luck!
