^^^ I don't think I would do either of those trades.

This week who should I start at WR3...Kenbrell Thompkins or TY Hilton? 0.5 PPR

10/18/2013 8:29:57 AM

I would go TY just because I feel there is more opportunities with the way Denver runs up and down the field and Denver's D is terrible against the pass.

Pick 2: Matthews @ Jax, Randle @ philly, Martin @Atl, Richardson vs Den

Every week I talk myself back into Richardson and Martin and they disappoint.

10/18/2013 9:31:28 AM

Miami or Pittsburgh DST this weekend?

10/18/2013 9:33:35 AM

^^ I spent all last year talking myself into Mathews and that never went well. He just doesn't get enough touches. Maybe Randle pans out, but he didn't look great last week. I could understand sitting Richardson vs. Denver since Indy will probably need to throw it more and he could be out of the game plan in the second half. Wish you had better options. I definitely wouldn't sit Martin, but it's a toss up among the other 3 (who vultures a touchdown, etc). I generally go with the most talented guy in that situation, which I think would be Richardson, but who knows.

10/18/2013 9:42:49 AM

my Hauschka only got 2 points fewer than my opponent's Lynch. Liking that start.

"@ProFootballTalk Per agent Drew Rosenhaus to PFT, "Rob [Gronkowski] has now been cleared by all his doctors to play in Sunday in the Jets game." 9:25 AM - 18 Oct 2013"

Can't decide if I'm going to let him ride the bench one more week to let him get going again, or roll the dice and hope for a monster return.

Other choice is Martellus Bennett at Washington.

10/18/2013 11:35:38 AM

I'm planning on starting Gronk but only because I don't have any other decent option. If I was in your position I would probably roll with Bennett.

10/18/2013 11:39:23 AM

I'd go Bennett too...even if he's in, it seems unlikely he'd have a monster game

2 situations:

Ryan Matthews vs JAC or Fred Jackson vs MIA?
Cecil Shorts (game time decision) vs SD or Marlon Brown vs PIT?

This is, of course, assuming Shorts isn't ruled out before the game starts

10/18/2013 11:43:11 AM

He's been practicing for weeks, I'm sure Brady and him are on the same page. He's instantly the #1 red zone receiving threat for the pats.

10/18/2013 11:43:18 AM

^^I would lean Fred Jackson (I just don't trust Matthews). Shorts if he plays, Marlon Brown if he doesn't. Hasn't doss been getting targeted more recently for the Ravens?

Keeper league. non-ppr. Was offered this trade by the 1st place team (he has Peyton):

I give:
Demaryius Thomas ( I can keep him as 4th round pick next year)
Bilal Powell

I get:
CJ Spiller (can keep next year as 8th round keeper)
James Jones

thoughts?

2 spots, 3 guys: Justin Blackmon, Torry Smith, Laveon Bell. Im thinking of sitting Torry Smith matchup wise???

10/18/2013 4:04:28 PM

^ Sit Smith in my opinion.

^ No. Thomas is too good there. With Jones' injury and Spiller not living up to potential, it's not worth giving up a sure thing like Thomas.

10/19/2013 9:24:30 AM

Still going back and forth with this guy. So now the offer is;

He gives Matt Forte (or Arian Foster), Reggie Waye, Gio Bernard, Saints Def
I give Justin Blackmon, Frank Gore, Vernon Davis

I don't think thats a terrible offer, but it doesn't really help me that much. I countered swapping out Trent Richardson for Gore, but he declined and sent back the same offer. I'm thinking I may offer to give him Gore, but also give him Clay instead of Davis. Doubt he will take it but I'm at a loss. Any more thoughts on this deal???




My team:
WR: Calvin Johnson, Vincent Jackson, Justin Blackmon, Michael Floyd, Golden Tate, Emanuel Sanders, Jerome Simpson
RB: Frank Gore, Trent Richardson, Bilal Powell, Willis Mcgahee
TE: Vernon Davis, Charles Clay

His Team:
WR: Brandon Marshall, Reggie Wayne, Rueben Randle, Denarius Moore, Jarrett Boykin, Marlon Brown
RB: Arian Foster, Matt Forte, Gio Bernard, Eddie Lacy, Ben Tate, Joseph Randle
TE: Garrett Graham, Tim Wright

We start 2 RBs and 3 WRs

10/19/2013 11:32:13 AM

if you got rid of Vernon, who the heck would you start at TE?

10/19/2013 11:36:56 AM

HELP on FLEX play! Really am rarely stuck making decisions and would appreciate other perspectives

GRONK v. NYJ (just got cleared to play, but has no history this year to forecast by)

OR

H. Douglas v. TB (hasn't played much all year, but is the only WR left for Atl)

10/19/2013 11:50:57 AM

^ I still think I go Gronk if he plays. He has been practicing for 2 weeks already, and there isn't a bigger redzone threat in the league. Even if he only plays in the redzone he could catch 2 TDs.



I feel like my keeper league team is destined for mediocrity this year. 4 Teams make the playoffs and I am in 4th at a 4-2 record.

QB Drew Brees
QB Phillip Rivers
RB Ray Rice
RB Demarco Murray
RB Joseph Randle
RB Bilal Powell
RB Benjarvus Green-Ellis
WR Demaryius Thomas
WR Reggie Wayne
WR Mike Wallace
WR Denarious Moore
TE Rob Gronkowski
TE Jermichael Finley
Chiefs D/ST


I don't know if I have the RBs to make it to the playoffs, and the only offer I have gotten trade wise is giving Demaryius Thomas, Finley for Hakeem Nicks, Gio Bernard, and Marques Colston.

Should I put Brees on the block, or just ride it out?

10/19/2013 12:18:34 PM

^You don't need both Rivers and Brees. Brees is the bigger name and I don't think their scoring will be all that different week to week (Brees ~+3-6pts). Also remember that Brees has already had his bye.

I need a WR3 (Starting Green and Blackmon)

Steve Smith vs StL - This years seems to be more old than verteran, but this is a great matchup and he is still getting 7+ targets a game.

Alshon Jeffrey vs Was - Laid a dud last week, but this is a tasty matchup.

Torrey Smith vs Pit - Best player of the three, but Ike Taylor is having a great year and has already shut down AJ Green and Brandon Marshall earlier this year.

10/19/2013 12:37:33 PM

^ I think I would go Jeffery. After Marshall's big game last week, maybe the Redskins try to bracket him leaving Jeffery open.


Was offered this trade in a standard league, 2 RB and a flex.

I give:
Darren Sproles & Tony Gonzalez

I get:
Demarco Murray and Jermichael Finley

thoughts?

10/19/2013 6:13:35 PM

if its PPR no.

hell, even if it isnt...no.

the RB you are getting is hurt and Finley is a random any given day.

Sproles gonna get his and Gonzo is the only option passing wise in Atlanta now.

10/19/2013 6:27:18 PM

^thanks.

10/19/2013 6:34:26 PM

Le'veon or Tolbert tomorrow?

10/19/2013 10:38:05 PM

what happens if Tolbert doesn't score a TD? are you satisfied with 5 carries and 18 yards?

thus, I'd start Bell. much higher upside

10/20/2013 12:31:17 AM

don't listen to him, he's a Bears fan

I'm a Panthers fan...start Bell

10/20/2013 12:41:57 AM

Rodgers vs cle or Rivers vs jax today?

Also would you start Ryan Mathews over Spiller and Fred Jackson (vs mia)?

10/20/2013 8:44:43 AM

I'd probably start Rivers, given the season he's had, plus he's playing the Lolguars, plus I don't think Rodgers actually has any players to throw to this week.

Also, I'd probably stick with Jackson, but Mathews is a guy that I won't draft. Ever. So my opinion of him is kind of biased.

Should I start TY Hilton (vs DEN) or Terrence Williams (@PHI)? I'm tempted to go with Williams, but both are playing against shit pass defenses.

10/20/2013 10:15:09 AM

^ I would go Hilton.


Pick a flex

Chris Johnson @ 49ers

or

Jarrett Boykin vs. Browns?

10/20/2013 10:19:09 AM

ha I'm contemplating the same flex decision! I had Johnson in, because I keep telling myself he'll bust out and get a 150 yard/2 TD game eventually. But I looked at his game log and saw that his carries have gone down every week: 25-25-19-15-10-12

I've got Boykin in right now, but I may get cold feet right before kickoff

10/20/2013 11:03:16 AM

FLEX (Pick one):

Stevan Ridley (RB)
or
Martellus Bennett (TE)
or
Brandon Jacobs (RB)

10/20/2013 11:33:39 AM

^ don't like any of those

I would say though that I think playing Ridley is a trap. Jets front is really strong and the secondary very weak. Pats will be passing mostly imho.

10/20/2013 11:41:21 AM

Justin Blackmon vs SD or Jordy Nelson vs Cleveland?

10/20/2013 11:52:42 AM

Nelson

10/20/2013 11:57:02 AM

CJ Spiller @MIA or Brandon Jacobs vsMIN

10/20/2013 12:20:32 PM

Spiller.

Quote :

"Jacobs reportedly suffered a setback Saturday with his hamstring injury."

Giants signed Hillis and he might get a lot of carries. There's also more talk about Michael Cox. I think Jacobs will be lucky to get 5 carries (if he plays at all)

10/20/2013 12:26:31 PM

That's what I was thinking. My luck, if he gets carries, all would be at the goal line.

I'll roll Spiller out again and expect to be disappointed again.

10/20/2013 12:27:25 PM

these FFNOW assholes never read my tweets. I need help with my QB situation. Cam vs STL or Big Ben vs BAL. I seem to ask that question every week

10/20/2013 12:30:51 PM

I'd go Cam

Brady or RG3?

10/20/2013 12:37:55 PM

^^I'd go with Cam.

^Brady

[Edited on October 20, 2013 at 12:44 PM. Reason : .]

10/20/2013 12:39:11 PM

Cam, easy.

10/20/2013 12:39:42 PM

I couldn't start RG3 against the Bears. Griffin is turnover prone and the Bears have forced the most fumbles, are top-5 in INTs, and #1 in pick-sixes. It's a possible single-digit game for Griffin

He has accounted for exactly ONE touchdown since week 2

hope everybody started Spiller. looks like Fred Jackson is in the fetal position on the sideline

10/20/2013 1:17:16 PM

^Hate to feel this way but its very good for me if jackson doesn't return, he's playing for my opp.

10/20/2013 1:18:04 PM

Harry Douglas is my savior

10/20/2013 2:13:52 PM

10/20/2013 2:17:17 PM
