Go with Spiller. That way if our front seven is getting bent over by the Bills, you won't be so quick to pound down 11 beers in a row.
Tricky one. Bell has the more favorable matchup but CJ is more accomplished. Sometimes players are just due. Id probably go CJ given the choice. I dont think Buffalo will come out looking to run the ball as much as people think. I think they may look to get Spiller in space vs a LB so I think he could end up with a Sproles type day receiving. Plus Jacobs has a hammy issue. Im not sure how much that matters when explosion for Jacobs is a 7 yard run. Wallace. Coming off a bye you can bet we were looking for new ways to get him the ball in space and work on developing more chemistry with him and Tanny.
MJD vs SD (2nd ranked run D) or Zac Stacy vs Carolina. Tentatively had MJD because its so hard to bench him
I have Forte, my opponent has Cutler; rough roll of the dice for him. My real team is having some issues but my fantasy team is doing its best to try to keep me sane.
FYI for anyone who has Brandon Jacobs hes doubtful. You will want to pick up Michael Cox and Peyton Hillis. Cox is a lot faster and offers much more big play potential even if hes still raw.
I'm thinking about dropping Lamar Miller who I never play. Out of Vereen and Andre Brown, which one would you pick up?
For Lamar Miller, neither. Id give it a week or 2 with McKinnie. Im not really sure either of those offer the same upside that Miller does imo. Vereen is a time share back and Brown is a speculative add who may end up in a timeshare with Jacobs Hillis or (more likely) Cox.
I don't think I'd drop Miller either but if I had to choose between Vereen and Brown... I'd definitely go Vereen.
Lamar Miller only has 20 more points than Vereen who only played week 1. I really don't see our coaching staff taking Daniel Thomas off the field.
I really didn't think anyone in my league would use a waiver on Vereen but someone did. I guess they're not as dumb as I thought.
Gettin' hit with some tough Bye's this week. Who should I start? Green-Ellis @ NY Jets or Roy Helu @ Denver Thanks
I started Helu last week and was rewarded handsomely. He's their main back when they go to hurry-up, which they've done more frequently lately and have had success from. Plus if Denver tacks on the points and Washington has to keep up, Helu could see a lot of snaps and opportunities being the primary pass-catching back. And for what it's worth, inside the redzone, Helu has 6 carries & 1 catch for 4 TDs compared to Morris's 6 carries for 1 TD, so he might likely continue to get the bulk of the redzone touches moving forward.
So would you guys start Ted Ginn (@ TB) or Marvin Jones (vs NYJ) at WR? Non-PPR, touchdowns worth 7 points. Damn injuries and BYE weeks are killing me... but I'm 7-0 so I shouldn't complain TOO much.
Ginn. or id check for someone like Brandon gibson who could rack up targets if miami is playing from behind
Who wins this trade? Team A gets: Hartline R. Bush J. Gordon Team B: D. Murray M. Wallace J. Blackmon PPR league.
Team A should just leave his team alone and not try to outthink himself. His starting lineup is quite strong as is. What would hurt it would be to acquire DeMarco Murray and have Murray unable to stay on the field, leaving himself with Lamar Miller & Mike James at RB2 rather than Reggie Bush. Bush+Gordon > Miller+Blackmon ...... and Wallace & Hartline are bench guys so I don't see them factoring into the equation.
If Joique Bell looks to be getting healthy I'd entertain sending a trade offer of Lamar Miller [or Mike James] & Josh Gordon for Blackmon & Bell.
nope.... plus fifty something return yards. All in all a good game..... but the missed catch would've made it outstanding.
So I have jordan cameron as a backup te in my big money league. I need a flex upgrade over mcgahee but I really hate ryan Mathews because hes alsays hurt. Yet there is upside with mathews....thoughts on a trade? FWIW Cameron has a lot more points but production has slowed without Hoyer
No but there are 1 week fill ins like Kyle Rudolph or brandon myers available. TBH, I care more about my flex then backup TE since flex has already cost me 2 games because I got < 6 points from McGahee when 10-12 would have got me at least 1 win.
