damn AP pick it up. about to cost me another week.

9/18/2016 9:43:39 PM

He done for a while

9/18/2016 10:53:55 PM

well, you'll never have to worry about starting AP ever again

9/18/2016 10:53:56 PM

^^^ sorry for your loss

I left T. Benjamin on the bench for some reason and it's going to cost me this week.

Who's picking up Jacoby for next week?

9/19/2016 4:45:01 AM

I'm hoping Jordan Matthews has a decent game and causes me to lose this week, thus securing me top waiver priority by being last place in my league.

Then I'll have to decide between Jerick McKinnon and Fozzy Whitaker.

Fantasy Football tanking is the best.

9/19/2016 10:03:03 AM

I really felt like I had the best team in my league this year and now that's about to fall apart. I still have Forte, and now I'll have to move Forsett (who has been disappointing too) into RB2 and flex somebody else like Hurns. I have Rivers and Brady so maybe I can trade one of them for something after week 4.

9/19/2016 10:26:20 AM

My first 3 draft picks in my big money league

AP
Gronk
Keenan Allen

I just changed my team name to Team Injured Reserve

9/19/2016 10:54:39 AM

At least Gronk will be back soon

That's the extent of my positive-spinning abilities there

9/19/2016 12:01:38 PM

Anyone else considering dropping Stewart?

So Ivory is back with the team...and working out. Maybe he'll play Week 3?

Sounds like Charles will be back in week 3, but I'm wondering how many touches he'll get.

9/19/2016 12:11:51 PM

watching all these injuries is making me glad that we transitioned my big money friends league to Fanduel.

9/19/2016 2:30:36 PM

Would be nice to know if Gronk is out, Bennett is my only viable drop and he will get gobbled up on waivers...I need a RB, is McKinnon the best 1st waiver pickup of the season? Or should I wait to use that waiver?

I have CJ Anderson Matt Jones and Justin Forsett as RBs

thoughts?

9/19/2016 2:53:32 PM

Who's the better backup QB: Bortles or Carr?

[Edited on September 19, 2016 at 6:57 PM. Reason : Luck is primary, if that matters.]

9/19/2016 6:53:22 PM

I'd rather have a QB with six divisional matchups against the Colts, Titans, and Texans than the Chiefs, Broncos, and Chargers. Otherwise, I'd consider them comparable. Is streaming not an option?

9/19/2016 7:03:21 PM

That's a good point. I already have Bortles and will probably keep him.

Streaming is definitely an option, but I figure it's better to have Bortles on the bench versus having to hope Gabbert, Mariota or Flacco has a good game.

9/19/2016 10:39:08 PM

good answers

9/20/2016 12:16:13 AM

Lol. Synapse is bad at this thread.

I'm unsure about the Vikings rb situation. It seems like Asiata is going to get the goal line work. McKinnon is still the one to own though, probably. You definitely need RB help as Forsett is terrible and will probably lose the starting job when their rookie RB Dixon is healthy.

I'm thinking about dropping Zach Ertz in order to pick up Fozzy. Thoughts? I don't like the uncertainty about his injury (apparently it's super rare).

9/20/2016 3:08:28 AM

drop woodhead already or wait to see if its one of those "they thought he would be out for the year but now he's back after two weeks" miracles.

9/20/2016 10:49:53 AM

well he tore his ACL so i'm pretty sure he's not coming back in 2 weeks.

Crab Legs Winston vs the Rams or Blake Bortles vs Baltimore?

9/20/2016 11:02:47 AM

you people are bad at this...

after 2 games drop Ertz pick up Fozzy. On potential alone.
___________

^ Rams D is legit, Go Bortles.

_________

I think I am going to drop Andy Dalton and pick up McKinnon. I start Palmer, only reason I have Dalton is for Matchups with AJ Green and scoring.

Bennett is too valuable at this point to drop, and Forsett is still > McKinnon This week.

right? anyone agree? help? k thx

9/20/2016 2:59:24 PM

Yeah I would do that, of course I don't ever keep a backup qb.

I think McKinnon is worth a speculative add, even if Adrian Peterson is some sort of superhuman machine.

9/20/2016 3:36:08 PM

I still think you should keep an eye out for Kenneth Dixon. I think when he's healthy he'll get a shot to start in Baltimore.

Also, I'm picking up CAP instead of Fozzy.

9/20/2016 4:14:24 PM

who?

9/20/2016 6:38:19 PM

AP has been averaging about 1 YPC before he went down due to that horrendous offense, and people think McKinnon will do better? At least Asiata is the goal line back should they ever manage to get into the red zone.

if you're looking for RB support down the road, then target Jordan Howard for the Bears. Langford has been dismal statistically, yet the Bears still force feed him the ball. Howard showed that he was much more capable last night. Give him a couple more games to demonstrate that he can handle pass protection, and he has a hell of a lot more upside than anyone not named AP in Minnesota.

Is Alfred Morris available in your league?

9/20/2016 6:58:37 PM

Quote :

"Forsett is still > McKinnon This week."

Agreed.


Who's the better RB pickup:

I. Crowell @ Mia
Riddick @ GB
Coleman @ NO

Was leaning Riddick, but it seems he won't see many goal line touches which is a killer in my league. So Crowell I guess? But with McCown out he's not as attractive.


[Edited on September 20, 2016 at 7:57 PM. Reason : : /]

9/20/2016 7:47:31 PM

This Gronk injury is killing me. I took him in the 1st round in 2 of my leagues.

9/20/2016 9:01:57 PM

^^ why are those guys not rostered in your league already?

Crowell has been pretty decent so far this year. The Browns RB situation seems to be similar the Bengals, with Crowell playing the Jeremy Hill part. If anything, having Kessler or whoever they end up putting out there at QB will increase his usage in the running game.

Riddick will probably lead the NFL in receptions for a RB again this year. He should be on a roster in every ppr league.

I would pick either one of those up before Coleman. He's been getting carries, but hasn't been as efficient as Freeman, so I expect his usage will decrease some.

Quote :

"who?"

CAP = Cameron Artis-Payne
Buzz is he'll start while Stewart is out.

9/20/2016 9:23:58 PM

^Panthers already officially named Fozzy the starter.

He's performed well, I can't imagine him not getting a chance to carry the load over a player who isn't even dressing for games before this week.

9/20/2016 9:45:57 PM

No, they haven't.

Quote :

""He's a stout inside runner," Rivera said. "He's more 'plant that leg and drive straight ahead,' where Fozzy is a little bit more niftier, a little bit better lateral movement." "I have a tremendous amount of faith in who "CAP" can be for us. And knowing that you have a good change-of-pace guy in Fozzy, and you've got a guy that can come in and play situational football for you in Mike Tolbert - I think that's a good combination.""

CAP is inactive because he's basically Stewart Jr. He doesn't play special teams, so if the other RBs are healthy he doesn't really have a spot. Look at the end of last season when Stewart was out. CAP played the most of all the RBs.

[Edited on September 20, 2016 at 10:23 PM. Reason : You don't call a starter the change of pace guy]

9/20/2016 10:23:15 PM

Hope you're right. Just picked up CAP, hope he plays until Jamaal Charles is back.

9/20/2016 10:46:32 PM

Yeah love people in all my leagues putting in early waivers for Fozzy and not updating them when CAP was announced the starter yesterday.

9/21/2016 7:34:36 AM

I drafted CAP, dropped him before the season for a K, then just got him with a $2 FAAB bid

9/21/2016 8:14:52 AM

Ya'll acting like he's gonna put up a buck 50 on the Vikes run D

9/21/2016 8:55:06 AM

he's a 5th RB for me....I got him for Week 4 if I need it

9/21/2016 8:58:29 AM

Quote :

10 team .25PPR league with 4 bench spots

They just got sucked up by lower placed teams, so Coleman it is!

9/21/2016 9:14:14 AM

Picked up Howard over Carey, hopefully the gamble pays off

9/21/2016 9:54:27 AM

i have no intentions of playing him this week. but hamstring injuries are often lingering issues, and with stewarts injury history, i suspect he'll be out multiple weeks.

also i ended up just picking up both fozzy and CAP (got fozzy in FA this morning) will probably end up dropping langford after this week if he loses touches to his backups.

9/21/2016 11:08:11 AM

CAP was a very popular and this week. You're dead on with the hamstring thing. He could be a legit 3 week starter, but I doubt he'll be much more than a weak rb2 or flex.

9/21/2016 11:14:18 AM

Got McKinnon for $6 FAAB in my PPR league. Now finding out Peterson may be out until December.

Just hope the Vikes picking up Ronnie Hillman doesn't end up fucking me somehow. Have had shit luck so far this year.

9/21/2016 12:56:45 PM

Asiata about to go beast mode lol

9/21/2016 1:20:38 PM

Yup, I realized the vikings RB committee is a big jumble, so I went with Fozzy instead.

Given Stewart's history and how the staff likes Fozzy, I think it's the safer pick.

9/21/2016 1:35:22 PM

Arrest warrant issued for Josh Gordon.

[Edited on September 21, 2016 at 2:19 PM. Reason : He might be a no-brainer hold based on potential in a deeper league, but not in mine]

"Gordon was ordered to provide a DNA sample; he had until Sept. 25, 2015, to do so. The complaint stated that nobody other than Gordon was presumed to be the father. It also stated the woman is on welfare and needs child support from Gordon."

stop slumming, man.

also

Quote :

"An NFL spokesman said Wednesday that the warrant would not have any affect on Gordon's conditional reinstatement. Gordon was in the team facility on Wednesday, but because he is suspended, he is not permitted to talk to the media."

i guess since it's not drug/violence stuff they don't really care.

9/21/2016 4:30:04 PM

Slumming? I'm saying this is more of the same - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Gordon#Professional_career

He hasn't played a full season since 2012. Do you actually think he'll make it through the remainder of this one?

[Edited on September 21, 2016 at 4:43 PM. Reason : As I said, if we had more than 4 bench spots I'm sure he'd be taken. But so far, nobody's taken him]

9/21/2016 4:42:34 PM

oh no, i expect he'll end up getting a lifetime ban at some point.

by slumming i meant why is he hooking up with chicks on welfare.

9/21/2016 4:48:04 PM

Corey Coleman broke his hand in practice today.

Goddammit.

9/21/2016 7:43:59 PM

Russell Wilson has been such a disappointment so far. I have Brady on the bench waiting to come in week 5, but are any of these QB's, who all have better numbers so far this season, worth picking up and possibly starting until then?

Tannehill (vs Browns)
Fitzpatrick (@ Chiefs)
Smith (vs Jets)
Flacco (@ Jags)

[Edited on September 22, 2016 at 1:12 AM. Reason : -]

9/22/2016 1:11:51 AM

Ha, I picked up both Carolina RB's. Other than Tolbert.

Hopefully one of them fleshes out long term.

9/22/2016 9:37:31 AM

^^I would still roll with Russell over the guys in that list

I need some help with my RB2 situation (0.5ppr), pick one:

Spencer Ware vs. Jets
Christine Michael vs. San Fran
Matt Jones @ NYG
Jeremy Hill vs. Denver
Chris Ivory vs. Balt
Fozzy vs. Minn

yuck
