I picked up Rainey too but then dropped him minutes later in favor of McGahee. Hopefully he passes his physical.

 

I'd go Woodhead in a PPR.

 

With Stephen Jackson out who should I play at flex? Right now I have Julius Thomas starting there but I also have Eddie Royal and Coby Fleener(Dwayne Allen is out). I feel like I should wait a week to consider McGahee there.

 

Would you guys start Royal over Garcon/T. Smith/Shorts?

 

Thomas over Royal and Fleener

 

Garcon out of the 4 WR this week

Not sure how you figure. They didn't trade away any pieces of their legitimately good to great defense, they made their already bad offense worse. I doubt they will be running more plays at all.

 

I didn't say anything about running plays. They obviously will have no running game and will probably lose 14 games. They are going to be behind a lot and will be putting the ball in the air. Gordon and Cameron are their only two legitimate threats and they actually have decent offensive minds on the sidelines. I wouldn't worry about those two due to the volume of targets sure to come their way.

I'd start Royal this week over Shorts, brutal matchup against SEA. You'd basically be relying on garbage time to get him any points.

 

I'm either starting Royal or Givens over Shorts this week. Brutal matchup for him indeed.

If you are in a deep league and need a RB, Ellington is the guy Id have my eye on. Coach has said he thinks hes an every down back and Mendenhall is hurting.

One last post for week 3... Luck or Eli? then another league I have Ryan or Shaub?.....Shaub is facing the Ravens who gave up the 2nd most points to QB

First one is close, I'd lean Eli in this one due to the tough matchup for Luck, SF on the road. Eli's been slinging it and if he limits turnovers a bit, should be a lot of points there.

 

Second one, don't be cute, you're playing Ryan.

I have McCoy on all 3 of my teams =(

 

 

....And he's back =)

So someone proposed this trade to me in a 2QB PPR league...Cam + Daryl Richardson for Big Ben + Trent Richardson.

 

Obviously a huge upgrade at QB but I don't trust D. Richardson to start all year. Especially with Pead back now.

Your starting quarterback is Big Ben?

I don't know the rest of your RBs but you'd be getting best player in deal IMO and that's usually worth it. Is Pead taken? Pick him up as your handcuff. Pead has never done anything to take the job from Richardson though. He's like David Wilson 2.0.

Why am I not starting Rivers over Brady? I can't pull the trigger.

Until Gronkowski and/or Amendola gets back, he doesn't have a consistent and stable set of receivers to throw to.

 

Seriously, you have to think they're kicking themselves right now for not bringing back Wes. I think the Dolphins are the favorite in that division right now.

I have a feeling this bandwagon is going up in flames, but it'll be a f***ing blaze of glory

Mine had fantasy relevance!

Mine did only in the sense that I said BRADY SUCKS BUT NOT REALLY HIS RECEIVERS DO THOUGH.

 

Still, I apologize sincerely.

f***in Gronk isn't playing because of his god damn forearm now. For being such a beast, that dude is made of f***in toilet paper.

Where did year hear this?

 

If it's the forearm, might as well drop him.

Doesn't sound like Rice is playing :(

Sigh. Forced to start mcgahee today with rice and mjd out (if not literally basically vs Seattle). I wonder how much I'll lose by

So now Trent Richardson might get 10-15 touches?! Dammit I was set to start James Starks now I dunno.
