Standard scoring. Former Peterson AND Woodhead owner. Pick two

Vereen

(I've won both my games and thus can't get anything on the waiver wire)

Jennings is out so I'd roll with Vereen.

Need to start one of these dumpster fires in 0.5 PPR:

- Kenyan Drake (announced as starter against lolbrowns)
- Ryan Mathews (will he get more than six snaps???)
- Jerick McKinnon (can anyone in Minnesota run with that o-line?)
- Dwayne Washington (owned by literally no-one).

Ok, so the problem I've been having this season is that all of my players seem to be ranked around the same spot as each other, making it tough to see who I should start. I'm 2-0 right now about to face an 0-2 team, so I'm not upset or worried, just want a little advice on my line up. I am also a footballguys subscriber, and I use this thread for a 2nd opinion/tie breaker.

.5 ppr, 2 QB league.

RBs - Pick 1, I got Forte glued to my lineup until he dies. Best 4th round steal in my history of playing fantasy.

Theo RIddick @ GB
Isaiah Crowell @ Mia
Gio Bernard @ Don't bother choosing him, I'm not going to pick him he isn't doing poo poo against Denver.

All week footballguys have been going back and forth on Riddick and Crowell. They thought Crowell will be the only one scoring against the dolphins (this is true), then they found out Abdullah would be out giving Riddick more time, then they said that the lions suck (this is true). I'm leaning towards Riddick, but I could be talked into Crowell considering he will be the only person who should have the ball in that game.

WRs - Pick 3. .5 ppr

T.Y. Hilton vs SD
Mike Wallace @ JAX
Travis Benjamin @ Ind
Golden Tate @ GB
Tyler Lockett vs SF
Tyrell Williams @ Ind

Footballguys suggest Hilton, Benjamin, and Williams. I don't want to play 2 chargers, just in case the game script changes or something happens to River, or whatever, diversifying my wideouts. The next ranked WR on Footballguys is MIke Wallace. Jax has a crap secondary and if Flacco hits someone with the ball it's gonna be him. Just making sure I'm doing the right thing. I've lost trust in Tate and Lockett.

Riddick

Benjamin, Hilton, Tate It's week 3, don't lose faith yet.

Let's talk about FLEX baby, pick 1 in 0.5 PPR

Help me, fantasy gurus - start Rivers or Luck? Both have lost targets, both up against porous secondaries. I'm leaning Rivers purely because he's not injured, but tempted to keep the faith with Luck.....

Happy football Sunday all,

1 PPR

So I need some advice in my money league, I don't feel like I have any GREAT selections so....

I need 1 RB and 1 FLEX
Alshon Jeffery @ DAL
Desean Jackson @ NYG
Quincy Enuwa @KC

Jerick McKinon @ Car
Christine Michael @ SF

McKinon and Michael are a push to me...not sure....and currently starting Alshon flex....but Desean might have a big day against NYG....idk.

Goon League:
1 RB and 1 FLEX please
Gore @ SD
Yeldon @ Bal
McKinnon @ Car
Spproles @ Pit

M.Jones @ GB
J. Macklin @ NYJ

I'm leaning toward Gore as my RB and Maclin as my Flex, but that NYJ defense is solid....and Jones might have a big day against GB? Idk....

Please advise!

It's a good matchup for Tamme but I'm still not sure I trust him. Kelce.

Is Evans considered a stud now? The Rams D seems to be not playing like total dogshit. I'd pick Ware for the better floor with Alex Smith at qb.

Speaking of Ware, NFL.com standard rules, no ppr. Need a flex. Ware v. NYJ or Langford v. DAL? Leaning Ware this week as the better talent but Langford has the better matchup.

MacheteZombie: Feb 4, 2007

Suffering from massive overthinking and I can't decide my lineup.

TE= 1 ppr, RB = .75, WR = .5, current choices in bold

Qb choices:
Cam Newton vs Vikings
Ben @Phi
Derek Carr @ Ten

WRT (start one of each then 3 flex)
Lamar Miller @NE
Latavius Murray @TEN
Giovani vs Den
Sims vs LA
Ware vs NYJ

Mike Evans vs LA
Marvin Jones @GB
ARob vs Bal
Brandon Marshall @KCC
Demaryius @CIN
GTate @GB
Tyrell Williams @IND

Travis Kelce vs NYJ
Julius Thomas vs BAL

I know it's a lot of choices. I obviously can't swap Miller since he played. I think I'm overthinking my QB selection and should start Cam, but I really like Carr and Ben's matchups. Evans and ARob seem like must starts, but Latavius and Marvin Jones give me worry and I wonder if I sit one or both of them for the myriad of choices on my bench. Julius has been outperforming Kelce so I'm considering swapping them.

Any thoughts?

gently caress it, go Crow? Gio had a great week last week but yeesh that D matchup.

Phins D still stink and CLE will need to run. As bad as CLE is, I really don't see MIA going up big because Tannehill sucks and their RB corps is a mess.

And I would go with Palmer without much reservation. He was awesome last week and Buffalo looks to be a disaster. Buffalo's offense is trash, esp without Watkins, so I would imagine Palmer has the ball for 59 minutes.

I'd probably go with Sims bc he should catch 5 or 6 balls, which gives him a nice floor, but I could go either way.
