So my running back situation other than Forte (who drastically underperformed this week) has been kind of a mess all year. For my #2 RB I'm reduced to the following bad choice:
Bishop Sankey (vs. HOU) or Anthony Dixon (vs. CLE)
Any advice? Neither is projected to have a stellar day, and both are in time-sharing situations. Just trying to eke out as many points as I can (with the exception of the guy in 1st place, everyone in my division is within one game of each other, so playoff spots are on the line.) 11/29/2014 7:21:47 PM |

That's about it. I also own Jerrick McKinnon (who has been my starting #2 for the last few weeks, underperforming, and now is out injured) and Andre Williams, who has almost no value with Rashad Jennings back active. On the waiver wire there's Ben Tate...Robert Turbin...and a whole lot of injured/bit players. 16 team league with deep benches so really all that's out there are scraps. And I don't really have anyone attractive to dangle as a trade due to injuries/attrition. 11/30/2014 4:03:11 AM |

Non-ppr league:
Blount @ Packers Gio Bernard @ Bucs? 11/30/2014 12:12:42 PM |
steviewonder All American 6194 Posts user info edit post |

Steve Smith or Edelman? PPR, heavy on yardage bonuses 11/30/2014 12:29:33 PM |

edelman
Which crappy QB should I start? (I sat Kaep on Thursay, luckily)
McCown - I own him
QBs available - Mettenberger, McCoy, Carr, Bortles, Bridgewater
Any of those better options than McCown? 11/30/2014 12:48:04 PM |

Neither Asiata nor Banyard is available. Reese is, but I don't necessarily see him as an upgrade considering the coach doesn't seem to have committed to one back and his best week thus far was ~5 points.11/30/2014 12:58:16 PM |

^Wrong thread, buddy.
This is awesome, I'm going to lose a must win fantasy matchup to the lowest scoring team in our league, who coincidentally is going to set this year's weekly point record today. Awesome timing.

Yeah, it's awesome when Laveon Bell goes off, Deandre Hopkins has the best game of the year by a WR, etc.
Won both leagues last year, not going to the playoffs in either this year. Super sweet. 11/30/2014 7:21:37 PM |

So I had Fitzpatrick, Jennings, Tre Mason, and Nuk Hopkins on my bench....With Romo, Ellington, Charles, and TY Hilton in. Wow and playing league champion.
I've outscored our league champion 200 points. He is gonna be 9-4 and I'm 6-7. 11/30/2014 8:20:47 PM |

Does anyone know why Andy Reid flat refuses to use easily his best player in Charles? It's like he forgets he is on the team. Dude should get 20+ carries every game.

Couple of questions...
0.5 PPR: Sammy Watkins @ DEN or Keenan Allen vs NE (and Revis)? STL D @WAS or GB D vs ATL?
I'm leaning Allen and STL D, but looking for some advice 12/3/2014 8:28:51 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
^Toss up, but with PPR, I'd go Allen. I'd go GB D at home, Redskins can actually put up decent points with Colt and they're at home. 12/3/2014 8:52:54 AM |

moved into 1st this week in my money league
I had enough depth at W/R/T and went ahead and scooped up defenses to stream these last 3 weeks (playoffs are 15/16)
14: St.L @ Wash 15: Balt @ Jax 16: GB @ Atl or St.L @ NYG 12/3/2014 10:41:17 AM |

^ Stl. vs Arizona isn't a bad option either. Arizona has been awful on offense lately, the sieve that is the Falcons Defense held them in check. I'm rolling with Stl. the rest of the year. 12/3/2014 12:04:09 PM |
chipendave All American 634 Posts user info edit post |
Seems crazy, but I'm seriously sweating my kicker situation for the next two weeks (playoffs). I currently have Matt Bryant, and he's been on a role, but I'm scared of his matchup this weekend in Green Bay. He's back home again next week against Pit which would be my championship game if I win this week. Really scared of him in GB though.
Other options include;
Randy Bullock (@JAC this week, which is great, but @IND next week which might not be so good) Nick Novak (Home against NE and then home against DEN, should be ok, but that stinker against MIA still scares me because I owned him then) Connor Barth (Home against BUF and then @SD)
Should I drop Bryant for either of those? I have considered keeping Bryant and carrying two kickers, but the only real option I have to drop is Alfred Blue, and I'm sure as soon as I do that I will need him next week... 12/3/2014 4:41:20 PM |
Walter All American 7760 Posts user info edit post |

Be aware, I started Cutler this week...so you can basically guarantee he's going to have a stinker of a game. 12/4/2014 8:30:34 PM |
chipendave All American 634 Posts user info edit post |
Well I left Marshall on the bench, so he's a pretty safe bet for 20+ points now 12/4/2014 8:34:53 PM |

or you jinxed him to get hurt... 12/4/2014 11:11:50 PM |
spencer All American 3640 Posts user info edit post |
so, guessing I'll end up dropping Marshall later today. trying to gear up for playoffs (weeks 15 & 16) and probably going to pick up an extra QB or DST to play in a favorable matchup one of those weeks. just dropped D. Jackson too, though, so i guess i could be thin on receivers if another couple guys go down, but i feel alright about the RB/WR/TE situation right now
here's what i got now (start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 RB/WR/TE, 1 K, 1 DST) in .5 ppr: QB - Roethlisberger, Rivers RB - Foster, Lynch, CJ Anderson, Ingram, Mason WR - Hilton, Gordon, LaFell, Marshall K - Vinatieri DST - Houston (for this week), Tennessee (for weeks 15 & 16)
thinking about Sanchez for a potential week 16 start at Washington (Roethlisberger has KC and Rivers has SF) or Baltimore DST for next week at home against Jacksonville (Tennessee has NYJ, so not too bad there already). thoughts?
best skill position guys available are probably Herron, Stills, Jordan Matthews, D. Jackson, Torrey Smith, but again, I doubt I would start any of them unless I have a few more injuries

chipendave All American 634 Posts user info edit post |
I would probably pick up Sanchez in that situation. Would probably have picked up Baltimore until Ngata was suspended, I think that hurts them quite a bit on defense.
Two questions;
TE Olsen @ NO (he's questionable, and NO has been really tough against TE's) Kelce @ ARI (much better matchup, but he hasn't really been killing it lately)
FLex Kenny Stills vs. CAR (currently leaning towards him) Dan Herron @ CLE Gio Bernard vs. PIT 12/7/2014 10:00:53 AM |
JP All American 16807 Posts user info edit post |
^Olsen, Stills
Pick 1 flex (0.5 ppr): Landry vs BAL Sanu vs PIT C. Johnson vs. NYJ Taylor vs KC Pierre vs CAR 12/7/2014 11:01:18 AM |
BJCaudill21 Not an alcoholic 8015 Posts user info edit post |
I'd go Landry.
So Rashad Jennings hasn't practiced all week but traveled and says he's cleared to play but will be eased in.. My only other option is vereen.. I don't trust either.. Any thoughts 12/7/2014 12:37:26 PM |
spencer All American 3640 Posts user info edit post |
^^^ thx. ended up picking up Stills for now because I was nervous about going so thin at receiver (and there are a couple folks in the playoff hunt that would get an upgrade by adding Stills). Figure I've got another week or so til I'd need to pick up Sanchez and can make sure he doesn't have a completely terrible game this week against Seattle.
Also, I hate Jimmy Graham 12/7/2014 3:35:13 PM |
