CzarStark posted:Sorry, it's my first fantasy season - with 6 bench positions, why is it a bad thing to carry a strong backup/alternate QB? If this is a bad topic for this thread I can take it to the main one. Because if you drafted Rodgers, you're drafting him to start him for 12 games for you. Keeping someone on your bench that will only start one BYE week is a waste because you could otherwise be stashing high upside guys that might pay off for your weaker positions. That said, don't drop Andrew Luck now that you've drafted him because he has a lot of value. I'd hang onto him until someone gets desperate at QB. SeannieDarko posted:Also having both QBs causes you to agonize over who to start every week. Luck might out score Rodgers now and then, but there really should be no agony because it falls into the jurisdiction of don't sit your studs

Standard yahoo league. Culter v Bills Kaepernick v Dallas I'm leaning towards kaep even though their offensive woes due to the dallas D being a steaming pile of hot garbage of massive proportions. Cutler should also wreck the bills though.

Thanks for the tips on having a backup QB; I'll try to trade Luck to the manager who has RG3 when he breaks in the first few weeks.

Yahoo standard league. Kaep vs Dal Romo vs SF My mind says Kaep, but my gut says Romo. Not a problem I usually have. I'm a Cowboys fan though, so clouded vision is certainly possible.

ANOTHER QB CONTROVERSY My quarterbacks are awful Andy Dalton @ Baltimore Jake Locker @ Kansas City Leaning towards Dalton but  . A caveat is that we have 1 point per 5 rushing yards (1 point per 15 passing, 8 points rushing TD, 10 points passing), so Locker's limited running is inflated.

Standard Yahoo league, pick a flex: Bernard Pierce vs Cin Marques Colston @ Atl Golden Tate vs NYG (and the lol pick) Stevan Ridley @ Mia I love Pierce's situation for the first few weeks, but I the ny matchup feels so good I'm actually considering Tate here. Colston is just a solid choice too. I always just feel like I'm picking randomly in week 1.

My RB2 situation is thoroughly awful. Gonna have to pay attention and play the WW or trade for a RB this year. Need one, Yahoo standard MJD @ NYJ Mark Ingram @ ATL J-Stew @ TB Is it bad that I'm leaning Ingram? Well I mean obviously it's bad if I have to start any of these guys but that's my situation at the moment. Santheb fucked around with this message at 08:21 on Sep 2, 2014 |

Standard rules etc. For flex I have: Steven Jackson (RB-ATL) vs NO Doug Baldwin (WR-SEA) vs GB Markus Wheaton (WR-PIT) vs CLE Kyle Rudolph (TE-MIN) @STL I have Jackson in the slot at the moment but with that hamstring stuff I am not 100% on him (as well as his age).

1.0 PPR, need to pick a QB, Flex, and potentially swap out a WR? QB Russell Wilson at Green Bay (currently selected) Matthew Stafford at NY Giants WRs DeSean Jackson at Texans (currently selected) Emmanuel Sanders at Colts (currently selected) Flex Golden Tate at NY Giants (currently selected) Knowshon Moreno at NE Patriots Am I crazy for considering to swap out Knowshon for Tate, and subbing in Tate for DeSean Jackson? I'm hoping that opposite Megatron, Tate will get some decent looks / throws, but DeSean Jackson has a horrible projection this week and RGIII is

Had my first draft yesterday and I think my starters ended up being really solid for the most part, but my bench is pretty terrible from what I can tell. It was really difficult for me to draft in the later rounds because I had no clue who was a good value pick. Would appreciate any feedback on my overall draft. This league is a 10 Team, 0.5PPR, otherwise standard scoring. QB: Tom Brady RB: Jamaal Charles RB: Ryan Matthews WR: Dez Bryant WR: Jordy Nelson TE: Rob Gronkowski FLX: DeSean Jackson DEF: Bengals BNCH: Eric Decker BNCH: Fred Jackson BNCH: Chris Ivory BNCH: Cecil Shorts BNCH: Brandin Cooks BNCH: Carson Palmer As for starters this week, I think I should probably switch out DeSean with Eric Decker for the FLX position, but other than that I don't see any good switches. Any advice on positions I should try and pick up/trade for as the season starts? I am worried about my depth at most positions. Thanks a lot.

This league is a 10 Team, 0.5PPR, otherwise standard scoring. I like Decker over DeSean. He's the #1 WR in a team with few other targets to throw to, while DeSean is 1 of like 4 potential starting targets in Washington. Also, for what little it may be worth, Geno has looked much better than RGIII this preseason and they open against the Raiders, who are just plain terrible. Speaking of DeSean, I need to figure out my WR 2 and Flex, if anyone would be willing to assist me. Standard scoring. DeSean Jackson vs. Houston Golden Tate vs. NYG Rueben Randle vs. Det Danny Woodhead vs. Ari Jeremy Hill vs. Bal Bold is my thinking. I also have Devonta Freeman but I'm not really expecting to start him until Steven Jackson dies. Cpt. Mahatma Gandhi fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Sep 2, 2014 |

^^^ I think this is pretty much fine, anything else would be unnecessary risk that I don't think would have a big enough payoff anyway I made the spectacular decision to draft a pair of similar quarterbacks in both of my leagues, so I'm going to probably be asking this question to myself every week but I'd like goon input on this first week 6 points per passing touchdown for both leagues, otherwise standard scoring Brady @ MIA or Kaepernick @ DAL Rivers @ ARI or Newton @ TB In the two respective leagues, I consider Brady and Newton to be the "Starters", meaning they win the tiebreaker if I think their backup has an equal matchup. However, this week I'm leaning Brady and Rivers 420 have weekly QB controversy erry day
