I hear ya, so far in the ATOT Money league my RB corps has been going down faster than the drummers from Spinal Tap; I've lost Arian Foster, Dion Lewis, Ahmad Bradshaw, Mark Ingram, and Thomas Rawls.
Ivory! Just more reliable to get you points. He isn't a boom/bust player.
It's a solid matchup since he'll be an every down back which is a luxury nowadays.Picked up Denard Robinson too to fill up an empty spot. He's playing against Atlanta ranked 2nd at home. What do you think about that match up?
You gotta go Rodgers with McCarthy calling the shots and rejuvenating open looks for Cobb. Carr would be the next best play.For next week, Carr vs Green Bay or AJ Mccarron vs SF? Definitely like the matchup vs SF...
This is in a 2QB league...my other QB is A Rogers...
No need to panic. Denard over McFadden simply based on matchup and the fact that the Jags are in we-have-to-win-now mode and he is less beat up than DMC.God i'm all messed up in the head with my line up. I went from my lineup being 90% LOCKED IN every week to a whole bunch of who is going to do better this week players.
PPR LEAGUE
QB=CAM No brainer
RB = Macfadden ( Jets )
RB2 = Forte ( Vikings)
WR1 = Julio (jax)
WR2 = Decker (dallas)
WR3 = B.Cooks (Lions)
TE = Branidge ( Seahawsk)
FLEX = John Brown ( Philly)
Bench= Eifert ( SF) , Langford (MIN), Hightower (Lions) , Denard Robinson (ATL), had Dejuan Harris Now dropped.
My Flex and my RB is where i'm going to be changing things up. I'm thinking of benching Forte for Robinson and Benching Cooks for Hightower. Everyone on my team CAN drop 40 points any given week. Just need this week to get me IN THE MONEY!
HELP!
John Brown, a +37 vs Maxwell. Floyd is +10 vs Rowe, and Fitz +5 vs Jenkins. My bet is on Brown or Floyd with Floyd more likely to score but Brown more likely to have more yards. Fitz is getting some love on certain sites but Jenkins is a top 3 cover back this year, so unless AZ schemes for Fitz outside of the slot then he's not as good a bet as Brown or Floyd.SP33Demon, which Cardinals receiver has the best shot of exploiting a juicy matchup with Philly?
Part of logic for benching forte. But still u can make a case for forte as well.It's a solid matchup since he'll be an every down back which is a luxury nowadays.
Any advice on these choices?
Delaine Walker or Eifert?
Allen Hurns, Javorious Allen, TJ Yeldon, Rishard Matthews at flex? (or the other TE?)
Walker for the simple fact that he isn't injured and playing with a backup QB. Devin McCourty is out and while Harmon is good, he's not as good as McCourty. Pats LBs will be without Freeny and SS Chung let TE Ryan Griffin get open a bunch of times vs the Texans (Griffin is nowhere near Delanie's elite level). All in all it's not a great matchup, but Delanie has proven that he will get his 7 catches a game regardless of opponent and regardless of situation (like garbage time feeding last week). I wouldn't expect a TD, but unless Belichick specifically schemes to take Delanie away from Mariota, Delanie should be fine. Even in garbage time, I like his chances. Remember last game vs the Jets? He had 4 catches for 40+ in the final drive of the 4th quarter alone. Up to that point, the Jets held him to 3 catches for 30 yards. Denard Hopkins had a 40yd catch in garbage time as well vs the Pats.Any advice on these choices?
Delaine Walker or Eifert?
Allen Hurns, Javorious Allen, TJ Yeldon, Rishard Matthews at flex? (or the other TE?)
No brainer, Denard. Seattle will stack the box against Schaub.I'd go with Delanie.
I'm in the same boat regarding Javorious Allen.
Should I start Allen or Denard Washington(picked him up today) in my Flex position?
hmmm
No brainer, Denard. Seattle will stack the box against Schaub.
I don't know if I should leave Antonio Brown in against Denver, or roll the dice on Julio Jones against the Jaguars. The match-up screams Julio, but he's been really flat for a while now.
Don't feel bad, I'm down to Mcfadden and bilal powell in the PPR semifinals going up against shady and AP. Luckily I have julio maclin but we'll see what happens, I'm definitely the underdog. I may even start Fozzy over Mcfadden who will probably do nothing against the Jets since they can stack the box given that Cassel is a trainwreck and Dez had 3 drops last week. At least the Giants are giving up over 4 adjusted yards per rush and not in the top half of run defenses this week.You know your team has hit dumpster fire status when Buck Allen is your only starting RB left.
Dallas is a vortex of fantasy nothingness since they like to run the ball a lot and kill clock. Luckily, the Jets have a killer run D and will probably flip the script on them. If that happens, then Ivory/Powell are good bets. Since Gurley hit his projection last night, you can probably incur a little more risk... which means I'd go with the every down back Denard over the Ivory/Powell split which is looking more and more like a 50/50 despite Ivory still putting up great metrics. The problem is that Powell has also improved in every aspect every game as well and the coaches have noticed by giving him more touches. Predicting a TD for Ivory or Powell is a total crapshoot, whereas you know if the Jags get on the 1 they'll probably go Denard. The risk is that the Jags like to throw more than run in the red zone for obvious reasons.Damnit. I'm indecisive on Ivory vs. Denard.
Ivory is so inconsistent but he's playing @Dallas 6th.
Denard is gonna hit a ton of touches vs ATL at home ranked 2nd.
I kept Gurley in for tonight.
Yeah, Julio mainly because although Antonio is going to get his catches vs Roby he's not going to get much YAC (yards after the catch) vs Denver - Denver has been great at limiting that. Julio will get YAC vs JAX, and I expect Matty Ice to go back to his bread and butter after getting shut out last week.I don't know if I should leave Antonio Brown in against Denver, or roll the dice on Julio Jones against the Jaguars. The match-up screams Julio, but he's been really flat for a while now.
Both? What other WRs you got?
I think I'm going with Julio. It feels wrong to bench a receiver of Browns caliber, but I feel like I have better options.I don't know if I should leave Antonio Brown in against Denver, or roll the dice on Julio Jones against the Jaguars. The match-up screams Julio, but he's been really flat for a while now.
