Indianapolis Vs Cheifs
San Diego Vs Jets
Arizona Vs Bears
Houston Vs Vikings
Seattle Vs 49ers


These are all the potential waiver wire picks for this coming week in my league. Who do you guys think will put up the most points? I'm thinking Indianapolis Colts right now.

I'm in a similar situation. I took SD vs Jets for now. I might switch to Indy vs Chiefs since KC is horrible! SD might just phone it in and not try. SD has a better fantasy D this season but again, Indy is still working on holding the playoff spot. Maybe I just talked myself into Indy

I wouldn't trust ARI even vs the 3 loss skid Bears
I don't like Hou vs Min, b/c even though Ponder sucks, they can be conservative and use AP
I also don't like anyone vs 49ers b/c they don't turn it over much and they run a lot

12 teams and 17 roster spots so it's a pretty deep league. the best FA available is dennis pitta, the rest is just crap.

Would you start McCoy over Olsen?

i think pitta is a better play than olsen. he's dicey, though... he shows up some games and snoozes on others.

as for mccoy... ugh. yeah, i'd start him over olsen.

Which quarter back should I play this week? My choices off of the waiver wire are Eli Manning, Josh Freeman, Colin Kapernick, or Russell Wilson.

yuck. probably eli or wilson... flip a coin.

Alright - post your advice for my "Must Win" matchup this week. I have so many options I don't know who to start this week, I have to get it right so don't just say who you would start but why.

Its 2 RB's and 2 WR's and a FLEX but I always start a RB in flex, always. Not going to change my winning ways when I'm 11-3 with a Bye last week

Non PPR, standard scoring

RB (Pick 3) = Arian Foster, Alfred Morris, Stevan Ridley, Jamaal Charles, Reggie Bush
WR (pick 2) = Victor Cruz, Randall Cobb, Eric Decker, Reggie Wayne, Pierre Garcon

I think I want to wait to see if RG3 starts. If he does I might play Pierre, and if he doesn't I will play Morris, however if Kirk Cousins starts I would play Morris and not Pierre. Logic there is that he didn't throw to Pierre last week and RG3 would take runs away from Morris. I have so many great running backs, I have the luxury of starting someone else. Otherwise I am looking to start Arian Foster for sure (no brainer) and Steven Ridley. If RG3 plays I think I'm leaning to Jamaal Charles over Morris, however Bush has a great matchup but has been benched for a while for a reason.

On the WR side I am currently looking at Victor Cruz and Randall Cobb but again, if RG3 plays I might play Pierre because that is his go to receiver.

Thoughts?? Make them good folks

Alright yall's

Need More advice!!

This isn't your sisters FFL, this is for big money. Not no $30 buy in like ATOT pansy leagues. Need all the advise I can get.

 

[AmdEmAll]

Should I take a chance and play RG3 or Wilson?

Also I have Greg Olsen as TE should I pick up Pitta instead or will he snooze this week? Gates is available but he hasnt done much this year. Also Fasano.. he's projected over 10 points.

are you kidding? rg3, man. i mean, doctors haven't cleared him just yet, but i'm sure they will. he had full practice today and he felt great, or so he says.

tough call. i'd probably go with pitta. hope i didn't steer you wrong.

Just wasn't sure if he'd be ready to play his usual self.

he's playing the eagles...

at worst, that's like a dude on a dry spell having sex with the lonely chubby chick in order to get his mojo back.

Foster, Morris, CHarles
Cobb, Decker Garcon (Cruz has a limp-wristed quarterback)

Man this is a hard decision. I have played FF for years and whenever I get this far, I have used the philosophy of "Play who got you there" which is why I want to stick with Victor Cruz. However, he has been so bad lately.

Now I find out that Daniel Thomas is on IR and I really want to try Reggie Bush against the 30th worst fantasy team against the run. Steven Ridley is going against the 31st worst fantasy team against the run BTW

 

[TheNinja]

Pick 2 of 3

Alfred Morris @ Phi
Jamal Charles vs Ind
Knowshon Moreno vs Cle

 

[eits]

Morris
Charles

 

[crownjules]

Start Golden Tate over Torrey Smith? Seeing as Smith suffered a mild concussion and the Ravens haven't been very good lately.

Don't get your hopes up. I had 3 RBs going against the 32nd, 30th and 29th ranked fantasy run Ds and ended up with a whopping 17 points, 12 of which came from Ridley.

That said, good luck this week.

I'd start Tate over Smith. I like Smith, but he just hasn't been on point these last few weeks. Add the concussion on top of that, and, well, I say start Tate.

 

[MisterJackson]

WR2 question (ESPN standard scoring)

Amendola or Garcon?

Garcon is only viable for me if Bobby Three Sticks plays, which I pray to God he does, since he's my QB (Cousins is my backup).

I am playing Morris too. I know normally a QB, WR, and RB from the same team isn't wise, but it's against the Eagles, haha!

 

[AMDZen]

Garcon if RG3 plays

 

[KeithTalent]

I'd probably go Gaacon regardless. I am picking Amendola over Garcon in my PPR league, but if it were standard scoring I would go Garcon.

There's no such thing as a "mild" concussion. You're concussed or you're not.

Either way, Torrey Smith has one of the worst QBs in the league throwing to him.

 

[tontod]

I need 1 out of 4 for my Flex (WR/TE): Mike Williams, Antonio Gates, Brandon Myers, Golden Tate.

I'm leaning towards Williams.

Yeah, I'd go Williams as well.

 

[MetalMat]

Which D/ST should I start?

Houston vs. Minnesota
San Francisco @ Seattle

 

[Imported]

I'd lean towards SF.. theoretically, the score should be low.

 

[HNNstyle]

I'd go with Houston since they are ranked within the top 10 def for this week on most charts.
