Bush. I'd rather wait to see how the RB situation shakes out for the Saints.
Take a flier on Cody Latimer for the last roster spot in a 16 team PPR? Currently have John Brown, but I'm thinking Latimer has more potential in a more potent offense. 9/4/2014 9:11:04 AM |

I have no idea on that one... little too deep for me...
Hopefully some can leap frog and answer that for ya too
My question- S Jax or Chris Johnson? SJax was out all preseason but they say he is good to go... 9/4/2014 10:12:55 AM |

Just heard on the pregame show that if the NFL PA reaches a new agreement on the substance abuse policy that Josh Gordon could potentially have his suspension lifted (or reduced). Put a waiver on him just in case. 9/4/2014 8:08:08 PM |

^ a few posts:
Stop over-thinking lineup changes. If you draft Aaron Rodgers, you don't sit him. (Unless you also managed to draft Brees or Peyton Manning.) 9/4/2014 8:35:58 PM |

^haha. Generally I agree with you though. If I draft somebody like Rodgers (probably 2nd round, right?) then I would expect to play that player almost every single week. I still agree with you...Rodgers was probably the smart play. But it's definitely tricky.
If you wanna go off weekly rankings...pretty much everywhere had Rodgers several spots ahead of Rivers. 9/5/2014 8:24:18 AM |
moonman All American 8685 Posts user info edit post |
I mean, I'd still have started Rodgers. I'd rather get let down occasionally than overthink it and leave 35 points on the bench because I tried to get cute, which is far more likely with your superstars. 9/5/2014 4:43:15 PM |
hey now Indianapolis Jones 14975 Posts user info edit post |
I started Cutler over Rodgers and it really wasn't a difficult decision.
^ At Seattle is the exception to your getting cute rule.

^^ I see that now.
I have a much more win-win decision this weekend: Stafford against a fairly lousy Giants team or Kaepernick against a truly horrendous Dallas defense. God bless the NFC East.

So I was set to play Andre Ellington in my flex spot, but it looks like he may not play or will at least be limited, so who do you play from the following;
C. Patterson @ STL E. Decker vs. OAK P. Thomas @ Atl 9/6/2014 9:12:49 AM |

i'd go thomas, but it's really a crapshoot being the first week of the season.

Maclin. I've got Pierce too, but the Bengals had a pretty good run defense last year so I'm sitting him this week 9/6/2014 12:34:28 PM |

Another easy call, hilton. Eagles will be running the ball the entire 2nd half and the colts will be playing from behind9/6/2014 2:57:33 PM |

For Flex, nonppr I have:
Shane Vereen Brandin Cooks Kelvin Benjamin
Before I was thinking Vereen but now that Still is out, I'm leaning Cooks 9/6/2014 10:30:00 PM |
ncWOLFsu Gottfather FTL 12586 Posts user info edit post |
^I'd probably go Vereen there. Cooks being a rookie, might be good to see how much he's utilized in his first real game.
Gave up my backup DST and high spot in the waiver order to gamble on Josh Gordon. Think it will pay off? Can also keep 4 players from year to year, but don't really want to gamble on that with Gordon. If he is out for the full year, he may get into too much trouble to ever see another NFL snap. Probably not worth taking up a roster spot all year for that.] 9/7/2014 10:07:23 AM |

Probably. Sigh. I'm already regretting dropping him in my keeper league. Now there's all this talk about him being reinstated. When I dropped him it looked for sure like he was done, now... Not so much. 9/7/2014 10:17:52 AM |

he also only had 11 carries.
and I wouldn't be ready to write him off either....but there's definitely some legitimate concerns about him9/7/2014 5:46:42 PM |
ncstatetke All American 41128 Posts user info edit post |
that's exactly what I was getting at. he averaged 21 carries last season. give him those extra 10 carries today and he probably runs for 100 yards and possibly a TD
I'm not concerned yet 9/7/2014 6:04:05 PM |
TreeTwista10 minisoldr 148439 Posts user info edit post |
You right. He'll probably end the year as a better back than Charles and McCoy and AP. 9/7/2014 6:05:19 PM |

I probably should have flexed Martellus Bennett or Lamar Miller instead of Bernard Pierce. I'll know for next time 9/7/2014 6:46:19 PM |
ThatGoodLock All American 5697 Posts user info edit post |
I scored 40 more points than any other team with 0 points from my TE, Jordan Reed, and on my bench were Roethlisberger, Brandin Cooks, Kelvin Benjamin, and (injured) Andre Ellington
and I started Dez Bryant who basically got taken out immediately
(my picks were near the bottom of the last page if you care)
