Idiot Kicker posted:This is my first time in fantasy football. I am agonizing over my two QB's: Newton vs. the Saints and Palmer vs. the 49ers. Both of those defenses can and will be gashed. Any strong reason to go with one over the other? (I'm leaning Palmer.) That's actually a tough decision. I think Palmer is the safer player with Newton having more upside. It is quite possible that Newton runs all over the Saints, giving him a lot of potential but Palmer is in the much more solid offense.

Shane Vereen or Garcon tomorrow night? One of them would normally go in my flex, half ppr. I'm leaning Vereen.

Dexo posted:I'm at a complete loss of what to do this week Those are both really bad options for QB's seeing as they both go up against great defenses. I think the safer play is probably Tannehill, their offense doesn't tend to throw a lot of deep passes so he will likely dink and doink his way to a 14. Carr has more upside, but is more risky since he attempts more risky throws. After his performance last week though, he could look solid even against a good D. Zypher posted:.5 ppr I wouldn't trust Shorts, he has never done anything resembling consistent production. I would much rather take a risk on Matt Jones since he looks loving amazing.

Intruder posted:Trying to decide if I want to start Alfred Morris or hope Chris Ivory plays this week Alfred Morris is a pretty safe play. His points haven't been spectacular, but he has seen a lot of touches and good yardage which is pretty much what you want from your RB (also going against the Giants D). Philly Run D is also pretty good even if they are gassed by the second half from their inept offense.

I know I already asked this but I need someone to confirm my thinking. I need to play either Vereen or Garcon in Half PPR tonight. Garcon has gotten a lot of targets so far from Cousins and the Giants are missing their best corner so this looks like a good opportunity for him to put up a good game. I am leaning Garcon but Vereen looks to get a lot of use in the passing game tonight with the tough WSH run defense. Overthinking everything on Week 3, lord help me.

Quiet Feet posted:Nfl.com standard rules, no ppr. I like Marshall as your WR, but I would I say there is an argument for Murray over Woodhead in 0PPR. Murray is the obvious leader and has looked good and a lot of Woodhead's value comes from catching passes.

regaldeacon posted:My RBs are a hot pile of garbage and lost hope: I think your RBs are the right choice. Even going up against a tough D, Forte is going to be relied upon a lot and will probably pick up garbage time yardage in the passing game. Don't sit your studs. Forsett has been solid if not spectacular so that is an easy decision against Dallas. I would much rather have Stevie in my flex than Evans. Stevie has looked great so far and Evans has yet to catch a pass. As an Evans owner, I am going to hold off on him another week until I see him invoved in any way.

AtraMorS posted:Ameer Abdullah or Shane Vereen in my flex? Neither match-up looks good but the Lions offense looked like complete dogshit last week, especially the running game. Is it PPR? Either way I probably go Vereen as Abdullah's usage looks sporadic at best and the Lions go against Denver D which is frightening.

I would go Yeldon over Steve Smith, just because the Bengals D has been really good. The only risk in that is if New England goes up big early, then he won't see as many touches. Tough call on the Starks situation, at least you can wait one more day to decide.

ExCruceLeo posted:Bump. Any input? I would definitely play Woodhead and Eifert. Woodhead in 1PPR is incredible and there are question marks at the other 2 slots. Eifert has been seeing a lot of red zone targets and decent yardage so far and I will continue to ride that train. Also, are you rostering 3 Tight Ends? Ouhei posted:I'm awash in mediocre performances and it's really making me doubt my lineup: 0.5 PPR In half PPR would definitely take Woodhead over Miller (as a Miller owner myself). I would not play Graham until that offense shows he will actually be used. Like above, I am riding the Eifert train all the way. MrSargent fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Sep 25, 2015 |

SeannieDarko posted:I want to hop on the train, but I need some goon validation. That Denver Defense is legit, I would be worried about playing an injured Stafford against them especially when he hasn't looked that good yet this season. I think Tyrod is the less risky option which seems crazy to say. Marshmallow Blue posted:Brees is out. 0PPR James Jones looks like he is going to be very TD dependent which I don't like and Wright has seen inconsistent usage. None are great options. The only one I would switch to would be James Jones because I trust Rodgers more than Luke *hahahaha* McCown.

Boywunda posted:This is what I get for drafting a bunch of middling RB...I never know who to play. Ugh I would not want to play Freeman at all. Crowell isn't a bad play in the flex because the Raiders have a terrible Run D. I would rather play Ingram or move Crowell to the RB2 and play Moncrief. Moncrief was the only bright spot on the Colts offense and I think they bounce back against Tennesee this week.

My flex situation is looking really iffy. Currently have: Lamar Miller @Buffalo On Bench: Golden Tate @Denver Davante Adams @KC Boldin @ Arizona I could also throw in Gurley against Pittsburgh but that is too risky for my taste. Basically all of my matchups are terrible so I have no idea what to do.

Pain of Mind posted:At half ppr I would be tempted to start Stevie over Blount, but I avoid NE RB so I have not really been following them at all. Teddy and stafford is tough, the Vikings have been running the ball so much that his ceiling looks low. I might have to throw Stafford in if I need a chance at a higher score and hope he has to throw a lot and puts up garbage points. He could get injured again though which is a risk so Teddy is probably safer. Would go Stevie Johnson no question. And Yeldoon and Martin are probably interchangeable, they both have an 8 point floor and not much room for a big game. I like Yeldon more because NE has a bad run D and he sees a lot more touches. Have to hope he gets them before they go down big though.

I need some help for my RB slot. I could stick with Jonathan Stewart who has been pretty underwhelming or I could throw in David Johnson who has looked spectacular but is getting severely limited carries behind broken CJ2K. Do I risk throwing him in there? Could he really be worse than Stewart at this point or is his upside too risky?

opposable thumbs.db posted:Carolina is playing the Luke McCown-led Saints so they should build a lead and run the ball a ton. While Johnson has looked fantastic, I don't think you can be sure that he'll get enough to break out--he only got 6 offensive touches last game. I'd start Stewart. Thank you so much for talking some sense into me. I would honestly go with Stevie in both scenarios. Unless you are high on Crabtree but that Browns D is good. Same reason I am scared of Smith, that Bengals D is legit too. To the guy above, you absolutely go Rivers, it's not even a question. Flacco goes against the Bengals D and has looked less than impressive while Rivers has been solid.
