I've got to bench Ryan against Denver in favor of Palmer against SF, right?

 

I would.

 

Need some advice:

 

I was offered TJ Yeldon for Drew Brees.

 

I have Russell Wilson on my bench whom somebody dropped (lol).

 

It's a 10 man league so QBs really arent that valuable. My RBS are Freeman, Forte, Ryan Matthews, Charles Sims, and Thomas Rawls.

 

I figure I cash in a little bit but also build my RB depth. He also offered Riddick who looked AWFUL this week

That decision might make itself. Palmer players Thursday and is in concussion protocol. I'd think he's out.

 

I would trade Brees for an RB but I am not sure Yeldon is all that sexy in a standard league. If I am you I look elsewhere to move Brees for someone better than Yeldon.

 

It's PPR, sorry. Basically I'm choosing between Riddick and Yeldon.

 

He's the only person that really needs a QB so my options are limited.

oh crap right Palmer might not even be an option

Dropped Fitzpatrick for Keenum.

 

Hope that it was the right move.

I have to play Fitz because Wilson is on by and no better options to pick up. Against Pitt so hope he just throws to the right team all game while behind.

Trying to figure out my starting lineup this week...anyone care to chime in?

 

This is a 12 player .5 PPR league.

 

This is my current starting lineup:

 

QB Matt Ryan (No, I do not have a backup and I'm playing him despite the bad matchup against Denver)

RB Melvin Gordon

RB Todd Gurley

WR Larry Fitzgerald

WR Marvin Jones

TE - Jacob Tamme

Flex - Brandon Marshall

K - Dan Bailey

DEF - Eagles

 

Bench:

RB Orleans Darkwa

RB Matt Forte

WR John Brown

WR Mike Wallace

WR Robert Woods

TE Travis Kelce (Bye)

 

My current concern is with Forte and his falling production behind the pick throwing machine that is Ryan Fitzpatrick (9 ints in 2 games). I'm having a hard time benching him.

 

Any suggestions?

Non-PPR....pick 2 WR for this week.

 

Will Fuller vs Minnesota (proj. 8.1)

Quincy Enunwa vs. Pittsburgh (proj. 7.6)

 

or pick up (would drop Bernard)

 

Travis Benjamin vs. Oakland (proj. 8.7) (But I also have Melvin Gordon)

 

 

(Coates, Royal, Cobb, Cruz, Kerley are all also available).

I currently have Fuller and Enunwa in there. I keep sitting Fuller, and he keeps producing. I just picked up Enunwa this morning on waivers, and with Decker out a lackluster Marshall, he could be a decent option. Only reason I hesitate to take Benjamin is that I have Melvin Gordon already and only one of them can get the TD on any given drive, so it just makes me nervous.

Just got offered RB Forte and WR Cooper for WR Beckham Jr. 12 team standard league. Do I accept?

 

Forte is kinda of on trend downward with his knee issues and Powell getting more snaps; and Cooper is decent. How's your RB situation? If it is good I'd keep Odell.

My WR's kinda suck but who should i start? Sammie Coats or John Brown as WR2?

Looks like I traded for David Johnson just in time. ;)

I tried for a while to get David Johnson, the guy kept saying no, and now he rattles off 30 points against me this week. Ugh.

 

I've also been trying to trade Matthew Stafford + for Larry Fitzgerald, that hasn't happened yet, and then go goes and drops 20 tonight. At least those were 2 different owners I guess.

Started Brown. Lol

Started Floyd. FML

Someone dropped Gio Bernard in my league and I'm trying to figure out how much to I'd. It's PPr.

 

I'm thinking 40ish

What the f*** is going on with DeAndre Hopkins? This is two weeks in a row without a catch in the first half. FML.

Rodgers needed 25 points for me to win and he gets 19.. Derek Carr has been a better fantasy QB at this point.

Not even Tom Brady's 28 points or Elliot's 30 points could save my sorry ass WR this week. Fuller got me 0, Enunwa got 5.

 

I will end up with possibly the 2nd most points scored this week, but had to play a guy who got 30 pts from David Johnson, 22 from Jordan Howard, and 23 from Vinatieri.

I have the most points in the league I care about and am about to be 2-3. FML.

Guy in my league is about to be 0-5 with third most points. Literally plays one of the top two scoring teams each week.

No one really exciting to grab on waivers this week. Put in a claim for Jonathan Stewart and Sammy Coates.

Yea I got Coates last week (and left him on my bench and he went off which would have given me the win....) putting in one for Kerley this week. Not a fan of having too many Bears players. :lol: I already have Jordan Howard, so no Meredith.

Looking for feedback on who to start this week. 12 team standard league where QB TD's are 6 points. All the rest is standard.

 

QB: Carson Palmer

RB: Le'Veon Bell

RB: Tevin Coleman

RB/WR: Sammie Coates

WR: Allen Robinson

WR: Demaryius Thomas

TE: Travis Kelce

D/ST: Pats

K: Gostkowski

 

BE: Latavius Murray

BE: Carson Wentz

BE: Jay Ajayi

BE: Kyle Rudolph

BE: Robert Woods

 

So two questions basically. Who to start at QB? Palmer had the concussion but the Jet's secondary is putrid and an inviting match up. Also, Out of Coleman, Murray and Coates who would be the best two to start? I'm curious if Coates can keep up his production from last week.

Need advise on a potential trade in a 12 team, 0.5 PPR league. I have the opportunity to trade Kenneth Dixon for Gary Barnidge. My other RBs are Gurley, Anderson, Michael, Jennings, & Sproles, while my only TE is Dennis Pitta. Dixon has significant upside IMO, but West has been running well lately and I'm not sure if Dixon will ever be more than a committe back this season unless there is a serous injury. Barnidge is a better TE option than Pitta right now, but I'm not sure if his targets drop when Coleman comes back. At the same time, he has signicant upside if McCown were to takeover the starting QB spot.

 

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Man, Pryor just got dropped in my league and I am really tempted to pick him up.

 

Just can't decide if I should drop Enunwa or Coates or Meredith to do it. Ugh, he's so intriguing.
