I'm so frustrated with the Eagles that I'm dumping Jordan Matthews.

Yeah I have Matthews in my league too. I looked at the top scoring WR free agents in my league and there are plenty who have done better than him up to this point in the season so far. I ended up picking up Rishard Matthews from Miami and he's done pretty well.

 

[NoCreativity]

Who would you guys choose?

Travis Benjamin v. ARI
or
Mike Evans @ ATL

I got real lucky this week with the WR snafu. The person I was playing against ended up playing two players who were on bye weeks. Guess he has quit on the league, which is odd since it's not just another freebie...

So same league, new questions:

I am currently starting Lynch and Jeremy Hill at RB but I have Charles Sims and Duke Johnson sitting on the bench. Thoughts on taking Hill out for one of those two?

Also, M. Bryant vs Cincy or Cooper vs NYJ?

I'm leaning toward Bryant since Ben is coming back. He should see a few more target, especially down the field. I expect Ben to try and air it out a bit. Not sure if Cooper or Crabtree will draw revis or if it'll be a side thing. That could make it tough for cooper. Jets D has also been really stout this year outside of the pats (still played way better than anyone else though).

 

[woodman1999]

I just wonder if they're going to stick with the run game for the first few games back so Ben is not standing back there taking shots. And I was under the impression Cincy's D was half way decent this year.

Jets D has been damn good all year... concerns me greatly.

Need a flex play for ppr.

WR-Cooks vs giants
TE-Barnidge vs Arizona.
RB- spiller vs giants.



All are low floors (goose egg), possible high ceilings(5 catch, 2td, 80yard). Barnidge seems to be a little more consistent. But cooks and spiller seems to have woken up a little. I drafted high on cooks and spiller only to have busters.

Barnidge and it's not even close IMHO. His worst game lately was against DEN and he went 3/39 and two TD. His bad games are better than all but one good game from Cooks and anything Spiller has done this year.

 

[pete6032]

Well with the loss of Arian Foster I need to start 1 RB:
Jeremy Hill (CIN) @ PIT
Carlos Hyde (SF) @ STL (won't practice this week due to foot problems)

These guys on waiver available for pickup:
Joseph Randle (DAL) vs. SEA
Melvin Gordon (SD) @ BAL
Ronnie Hillman (DEN) vs. GB
Ameer Abdulah (DET) @ KC
Alfred Blue (HOU) vs. TEN

Help.

Hill over Hyde. Do you have to drop Hill or Hyde to claim one of the WW guys, or do you have room? If no then why not grab one. Randle is hurt so he's a no, Gordon and AA have been ineffective so I'd say no to them also. Who knows with Blue, I claimed him today in one league but don't expect much - I see him as having a couple 20 point weeks with a lot of 5 point weeks in between and HOU is outright terrible this year so he may not have many opportunities. Hillman is a dart throw also but the entire DEN offense has sucked and the O-Line is pretty mediocre this year. He actually has the best track record of all the guys listed here also so I'd pick him by default. I just wouldn't trust him as anything but my Flex and would be very nervous if I had to start him as my RB2.

 

[thestrangebrew1]

E. Manning vs. NO or
Dalton vs. Pitt.?

Manning only got me 6 pts last week, Dalton coming off a bye against Pitt.

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

Who is the #1 RB for the pats tongiht?

 

[Crono]

Who is the #1 RB for the pats tongiht?

There will be Blount

 

[95SS]

3 WR, no flex. Pick 3 -

D Thomas vs GB
L Fitzgerald @ Cle
A Jeffery vs MN
M Bryant vs Cin

Do I dare sit Thomas, with Peyton's struggles this year going against a good Packers D? Or am I totally overthinking this?

 

[pete6032]

Roethlisberger vs. Cincy or Brees vs. NYG?

 

[soulcougher73]

Roethlisberger vs. Cincy or Brees vs. NYG?

I'd go Ben

Always start your studs.

I'd go with the top 3 on the list

Evan

Yep, no brainer with Bryant vs Cincy D.

 

[SP33Demon]

Evans

Amen to that.

 

[smackababy]

Alex smith or Russell Wilson this week?

 

[kstu]

Here's a fun one for you guys:

Pick 3: Dez Bryant, Donte Moncrief, Michael Crabtree, Willie Snead, Kendall Wright, Golden Tate, Marvin Jones.

Yup that's right, 7 WR3s to choose from (obviously Dez is better than that generally speaking, but first game back with Cassell drags him down quite a bit).

[Kelvrick]

Am I crazy for having Cobb on my bench this week against Denver?

Currently have Steve Smith Sr, Larry Fitzgerald as my WR's. Le'Veon Bell, Doug Martin as my RB's, and Charcandrick West as my flex.

Don't blame you, Denver is crazy good. I'm going to roll the dice on him but not expecting much.

 

[AmdEmAll]

I put Charcandrick west in this week as my flex.. so that means he's going to be a dud.
