Week 15 Lineup Question

[Sam Sportboy]

Last call for RB

I am stumped. I’ll end up being timed out rather than making a choice.

Gordon is in the lineup atm.
Javonte, Penny and Henderson are pulling my hair out.

Most carries: Penny assuming (no competition)
Best TD chance: Gordon assuming (been balling)
Combined yards: Javonte assuming (no PPR though)
Highest ceiling: Henderson assuming (best matchup, but Michel scares his floor)

Well I'm playing Javonte and Hendo over Carter, Hilliard and Michel if that helps any. Might regret the Carter sit, but I'd go Javonte and Hendo if I were you.

Only need one. Started Clyde already.

Javonte practiced limited Wednesday, out Thursday and limited Friday this week. Scary stuff.

I have a nice lead, but still get nauseous about it.

Think I'd still go Javonte, and was gonna recall my Hendo call as I have Sony to fall back on if Hendo has a set back. Gordon is pretty dinged too........

Which is why Penny keeps sticking his nose in my face right now. Lol

I just don't buy that dude this week........but the Seahags will try to play keep away if their smart..............but Rams D will be close to if not at full strength.............yeah, I guess I'd be going back and forth too....................lol.

With the last second TD, the correct answer at QB was Fields. ..... but I'm surprised no one said, "drop all those douche-bags and pick up Huntley". ...

In case anyone is wondering, I ended up winning the game. As it turned out, anyone of them would have been enough to get the job done since Kupp was my star of the day (and all season). It's on to meet the #1 seed now - and he is loaded. ....

Wasn't Jackson "iffy" until game time?

Actually, Huntley's performances in the absence of Jackson made me pick him up in D2 on the hunch that other teams in need of a QB may have taken note and want to trade for him in the off-season.

I did that in D1 as well. We have Jackson so it was kind of a no-brainer for us. .... our backup is Jimmy G. I also have a claim in for him in a seasonal league since my opponent this week has Jackson, and grab him in my other dynasty for the same reason as you.

You sure you picked up Huntley in D2?

I had the same thoughts, obviously.

You dirty dog.
The way everyone cherishes their waiver priority i figured it safely went thru without actually looking.

I normally cherish waiver priority in most leagues, but not D2.

Just not enough quality ups on a regular basis.

@averagejoe @TREFF @tlance @TKOSpikes @Bandit, @Sam Sportboy, et al. ... Another update to my league. I ended up knocking off the #1 seed via ww RB's. Picked up Justin Jackson, with the Ekeler news, who netted me 30.2 pts, and played Penny for another 19.5.
I imagine Ekeler will be back for the finals so have to come up with something else for the championship. CEH got hurt so that leaves me only Penny and Freeman as default starters at this point. Available guys are: J. Howard, B. Scott, Dare O, Burkhead and D. Gore. Yep pretty slim at this point - so who you like ?? I can make room for 2.

Howard and Gore I think.

Though I almost grabbed Vaughn last week, to add another name to think about.

Burkhead vs Howard is flopping through my head though.

Sorry. That was no help.

I'm sorry I can't offer advice because you'll be playing Scott. Although since none of us seem to make the right lineup decisions anyway it might not matter. I would go with Jordan Howard and Gore. Jacksonville plays New England so I wouldn't bother with anybody there and Houston plays San Francisco and David Johnson might be back, plus Houston was playing with an uncharacteristic lead this week and the chances of that happening again aren't very good. I would also consider Robby Anderson because he's been getting a lot more work lately and Moore should be getting the Marshon Lattimore treatment against New Orleans next week.

Only guys I'd consider are Burkhead and Gore.
I think my loathing of Howard is at least nearly as well known as my loathing for other sloths like Alf and CJ Anderson, but beyond that, Scott and Gainwell are just simply better options. Now, it's entirely possible they come out and curb Stomp the Gmen, in which case, sure, give Howard 20 touches for 21 yards. But the simple fact all 3 of them are just as likely as the other two to see touches, I wouldn't touch em.
Rexy is in a similar situation, but, I think he's got less true competition for touches, although Freeman will have 10+...but Mills won't run in TD's, and everyone else sucks bad

Howard and Gore, but who are ya gonna drop fer them? If Ek comes back and doesn't get a full work load, I still might consider starting JJ over Freeman.
EDIT: Then again I'm the dipshit that sat Sony 5 minutes before game time fer MCarter..........and lost by 3 points so what do I know...........

Now that made me laugh.............a lot. I peed...........

Oh I have a couple of random WR's I can let go - and Big Ben. .... Just wanna cover bases in case of late week inactives. ...
