Fantasy Football Q&A

First topic message reminder :

Post all of your fantasy Football quandaries here!

I would bench Nelson and VJax. Nelson might get Joe Haden'd and you can't go wrong with any of the other 4 really but others may be more consistent than Jackson

In my view
Nelson ,Blackmon ,Green just over Welker

The only other aspect is i'm very Denver Broncos biased on that team too with their defence, Moreno, J. Thomas as well as Welker

Welker has been their top receiver, and the Colts don't have any great slot corners.

Peyton might go bonkers against his old team too

Doesn't Welker have a touchdown in every game so far? Surely you can't bench him...

I'd go with Green, Welker and Jackson.

Glennon doesn't have anyone else to throw to and he's such a massive target in the end zone.

After reading Jim Irsay's comments, I'm even more convinced Peyton will go bonkers so don't bench Welker!

Give one to me!

Anyone care to share an opinion on playing 3 of the following 4?:

Marlon Brown, Keenan Allen, Fitz and Hartline. Considering replacing Brown with Hartline but Brown seems to begetting more targets now.

blimey, nice choice to have crazy dave

you could make an arguement for any of them, i'd go...
Nelson, Blackmon and Welker

I would play Hartline over Brown, the Bills defence hasn't been great, and Gilmore is probably going to shadow Wallace? Might give Hartline some room,

Moreno would be 1st choice, then Jacobs and Frenchy

Keenan Allen is breaking out and looks primed to have a strong finish, Rivers has been putting numbers up, that he last 2-3 seasons ago, and this is with injuries to their starters and passing to Woodhead , Gates and Royal.

Its an interesting team indeed, but it is only a 10 team league so teams often look better...

I then got lucky on J.Thomas via waivers in preseason (the draft was before he was announced starter)
Nobody (myself included) had Moreno in week one as everyone was obsessed with Montee Ball and the Denver RBBC
Then Blackmon was stuck on waivers during his suspension and i nabbed him.

In terms of the wideouts both Nelson (injury) and Welker (?) were underrated in early preseason drafts and I picked them up in round 6-7 at the expense of any RBs... was fortunate to patch that up with Moreno.

Who do I start?
Eli or Foles?

If he starts as expected then Foles IMO. In one half of football against the Giants in W5 he had 197 yards and 2 TDs (0 INTs)=16 fantasy points. The Cowboys are giving up more fantasy points to QBs than the Giants. He had 30 fantasy points against a good TB defense last week.

I'm thinking the same as BamBam. Tough to bench Nelson, especially as he should be a target monster with Cobb out, but the Browns are not giving up a lot of fantasy points to WRs. Torrey Smith had a total of 85 yards 0 TDs against them in W2 and I think that's as good as it's been for #1 WRs. Welker's a lock for 10-14 points. V. Jackson is the risk/reward option.

So Eli is benched then as Foles will probs start.

My other question is Greg Jennings or B.LaFell at flex?

Jennings all day. LaFell is unreliable and after one big week, he'll revert back to insignificance IMO. Jennings is no Calvin Johnson either but he has a higher floor and with Freeman in at QB, he could have a big game against a poor Giants secondary.

For all you IDP'ers out there, I need to start 2 from Jerod Mayo (@NYJ), Mychal Kendricks (DAL) and Derrick Johnson (HOU).

I know nothing about IDP, but I do know that Mayo is on IR ...

Aye, just saw that.

How about Demario Davis (NE) or Ryan Mundy (MIN) for my flex.

I've been offered David Wilson for Andre Ellington. What do you guys think?

What an insult! Someone offering you an injured player. Shame on them.  

Oof that's a tight one Pr4wn. I personally would do it because I think Wilson has more chance of winning me a league if it all clicks for him, especially as we have seen RB1 production from him at the end of last year..

Would rather swing and strike out than take a walk

You'll urine yourself when you see it.

Oh this is almost too good if I have interpreted that correctly

3-4 weeks out though... That's a long time in fantasy.

Who else you got at RB and flex positions?

Yeah, just as much as I laughed at the first offer.

I'm not laughing at the offer.

2 RB, 2 WE and a flex from hakeem nicks, Reuben Randle, Vincent Jackson, Keenan Allen, Joseph Randle, Spiller, forte and McGahee.

VJAX and Allen Forte and Spiller

Reuben Randle, and VJAX.
Forte and Spiller
McGahee as the flex (like the matchup)

Cutler or Stafford and Dalton or Kaepernick?

GO JAY GO!!

Leedscowboys wrote:VJAX and Allen Forte and Spiller

Surely Joseph Randle is a lock if he's starting for Dallas tonight?

RDuncan8 wrote:Cutler or Stafford and Dalton or Kaepernick?

Cutler and kaepernick for me.

I'm down to Hakeem Nicks, Reuben Randle or Joseph Randle for my flex spot.

Reuben Randle for me

DeAngelo Williams (Stl) or Eddie Lacy (CLe)?

Pr4wn wrote:DeAngelo Williams (Stl) or Eddie Lacy (CLe)?

Lacy... Green Bay have been running it well, plus they only have one WR and he might get Haden'd.
Even with a single healthy WR, you still have a decent TE and A-Rod, so its not like the Browns can leave Haden to do his job and focus on the run

Went with Stafford and Kap. Would have went with Dalton if I had space for both Kap and Dalton but didn't want to drop anyone else. :/

I won my game with my super wide receiver team this week... but my bench outscored my first team 90 vs 88!

Who did you go with in the end?

Welker, Blackmon and Green...

Never playing a Jaguar ever again (except the Keeper where I have no choice but to play MJD sometimes!)... why did I do it!

I did say Vincent Jackson...

I know, I should have listened!

For the rest of the season, would you rather have Moreno or Lacy?

Probably Moreno but they're both nice options.

I already have Welker and Decker so I'm kind of leaning towards Lacy. Trade proposed is Kaepernick and Rueben Randle for Lacy and Harvin. Would mean I would be starting Stafford and Dalton each week (2qb).
