I need a flex as well, currently going with Jackson. I have little depth at RB with McCoy on a bye.

Bishop Sankey @ WSH or Jonathan Stewart vs. GB?

I am not super thrilled about either choice but I keep waffling between the two and honestly have no idea whom would be the better play.

Stew is coming off a knee injury but going against the swiss cheese of the Packers run D. Sankey is healthy but a rookie and going against a fairly decent Washington run defense (12th I think). Help.

Hillman or Crowell.

I'm not sure. I feel like maybe Hillman won't get much done against the 49ers defense, but he stil seems to be Denver's main man. On the other hand, while Jacksonville is a much easier matchup, Crowell is still the backup to Tate so I don't know if he'll have many chances to do things.

I'd go with Ivory. Buffalo allows the fewest yards per game and yards per attempt rushing, while New England is middle of them pack in both. Ivory has been the lead back all year for the Jets and put up some very good games. He didn't do anything last week, but that was against a Denver team that is top 5 in both YPG and YPA.

Thanks for this! I would have regretted benching Ivory and this convinced me not to.

I feel like Garçon could have the biggest upside (though a very low floor), with Hillman being slightly safer with Ball out. Also that Colston could have a big day with Graham out or limited.

You pretty much have it there. Hillman probably has the highest floor of the 3 but that might be an 8 point floor. Well probably higher in full PPR. Colstons got a tough matchup.

SF WRs are unreliable IMO. I'd go with OBJ. I'm also considering starting Tate+Crow this week but with the news that West is healthy and will get some carries, I don't think I can even against Jax. The "experts" like Thomas over Ingram this week and I tend to agree if only because Brees is pretty bad when away and may or may not have Graham. Ingram's usage is unknown coming off the surgery. Will he split time with Robinson or look like the guy from weeks 1 and 2? If you need a flier, he might be worth it though.

I'm in a sticky situation for my RB2 and flex.

I couldn't take anymore Stafford, even though this week should be better for him. Not that I know what I'm doing, but I was probably going to start Romo over Stafford (before luckily being able to land Can Newton to carry me the rest of the season). The Detroit/NO is supposed to be nice and high scoring, though.

I like those picks. Colston has been invisible while Sankey couldn't get it going against the JAGS (Locker's return will help him, cause ain't nobody scared of Whitehurst). Holmes and Bell have been productive with their touches.

Despair will never let you down.
Malice will never disappoint you.

Need some RB help - pick two, .5 PPR:

Spiller vs. MIN
T-Rich vs. CIN
Sankey at WAS
McKinnon at BUF

Alternatively, pick one, and one of the following:

Quick vs. SEA
Cook vs. SEA

I don't have a clue what the gently caress to do here. Spiller and T-Rich are terrible, but Sankey and McKinnon could do anything. Quick and Cook are going up against Seattle, and while that's not a death sentence, it does hamper expectations.

Also, in another league - pick one, no PPR:

S-Jax at BAL
McKinnon at BUF
(Megatron vs. NO)

Leaning towards McKinnon here, and I should probably play Megatron if by some miracle he does play, right? He won't be a decoy again, right?

If I had to pick I suppose I would go Allen because he's on the best offense but there's not really a clear choice here. Are there any of them that you would hate yourself if that guy went off and you hadn't started him?

maybe pick up palmer to start over him, im int he same predicament and waffling about palmer. supposedly palmer is trying to get his arm back to strength by throwing a ton. stafford didnt look good against a bad defense last week, and while NO is worse, im not sure i trust him without calvin johnson. thank you for reading these 4 sentences which informed you that i dont know what you should do

I've been thinking about this decision too much all week and could use some input. 0.5 PPR, pick one:

James Jones vs ARI
Larry Fitzgerald @ OAK
Rueben Randle @ DAL
Eddie Royal vs KC

The expert/internet consensus seems to be Randle, and people are saying the Cruz injury helps him, but I'm doubting Cruz being out will help him since he's been getting force fed 10 targets per week anyways and will just merit more coverage now. Between Cruz being out, relying on a rookie RB and Peyton Hillis, and Dallas being the second stingiest defense vs WRs, I'm doubting the Giants have a great week. On the other hand, James Jones has been consistently scoring points and is playing Arizona in what is surprisingly a great matchup for fantasy WRs. Patrick Peterson has been a liability all year and I don't see why that should stop this week. Both my gut and my brain are telling me Jones is the pick this week. Can anyone explain why I'm an idiot?

Tate without Megatron against a weak saints defense is a top 20 receiver.

Jay Cutler vs MIA

quote:

Projected: 16
Cutler finally found the touch on his deep ball in Week 6, going 5-for-7 for 191 yards on passes at least 15 yards downfield (7-of-30 entering Week 6), according to ESPN Stats & Info. The Dolphins have been respectable versus opposing fantasy arms this season (allowing 14th-fewest points per game), but having multiple weapons in a high-octane passing attack keeps Cutler firmly in the QB1 discussion for Week 7. --JM
or

Cam Newton @ GB

quote:

Projected: 21
Newton is Pro Football Focus' highest-rated quarterback at the moment, having improved his weekly game grade in every game since returning to action in Week 2, peaking with a vintage "Super Cam" opus in Cincinnati. With the training wheels off (17 carries in Week 6) in the running game, Newton is primed for another dual-threat day versus a Packers defense allowing the second-most rushing yards per game to opposing quarterbacks (32.2 yards per game). --JM
I've had Cam benched since week 1 since Cutler's been amazing and lol Panthers offense, but he's really heating up and it sounds like he's got a better matchup. Pats D/ST skunked me Thursday so I'm wondering if I should take the gamble with Cam or stick with Cutler.

Pick one (standard scoring):

Andre Williams @Dal
Rueben Randle @Dal
Ronnie Hillman v SF

Williams will have an easier time running against Dallas than Randle will have catching passes, but the Giants will probably fall behind and stop running the ball very much, and Randle should be the #1 WR and benefit a ton from that. Hillman has a tough matchup, but will benefit from Denver likely playing from in front most of the game.
