D Freeman - you rolling with him this week?

[SmokingMonkey]

might end up being a moot point if he doesn't clear concussion protocol, but if he does, do you trust him?

12tm, Full PPR, start 3WR, 2RB, Flx - my options:

WR: M Thomas
WR: M Crabtree
WR: R Anderson
RB: Kamara @ Rams (all of these in bold are locked in)
RB: McKissic @ SF (really think they give him a shot now with all the injuries)
Flex: Damien Williams @ NWE (dolphins winning = Drake, dolphins losing = DWill 2.0)
BN Freeman
BN D Henry
BN Z Jones
BN Ginn Jr

Interested to see if Zay Jones can produce with Benji hurt/out/limited, Bills have a nice passing schedule here now that they got Tyrod back in charge, but not interested enough to start him without seeing it again. Was finally coming around before the acquisition and benching.

full PPR has me leaning McKissic/DWill - am i getting too cute here? should I just be firing up Kamara/Freeman every week and save the hail mary players for the flex spot?

as always, any and all input appreciated.
really need to win out to make the playoffs in this league, 5th - 10th are 6-5 and 5-6 right now, and I'm 9th out of that herd

I’m rolling him Coleman crapped the bed . Funny they give Coleman all those touches but haven’t given freeman that many

 

[TKOSpikes]

If he is cleared to play, I start him all day. Bad season not withstanding. Maybe if you had more Kamaras on the bench. Not Williams/McKissic.

I thought they'd give McKissic a shot last week. They didn't... for a practice squad player. I'm not holding my breath for him anymore. Maybe they just don't believe he can handle 10+ carries. IDK. Lacy and Rawls could easily be brought back in the mix. I think they should give the ball to McKissic, but nothing they have done has shown me that will be the case.

I would expect Zay to be shut down by Peters, with no Benji to blanket. I would start Ginn over him anyway.

So, yes I'd start Freeman. And my flex would be a toss up between Ginn and McKissic... with the lean towards Ginn.

 

[Trudem]

Im with SP. They stunt Freeman with a shortage of touches but Coleman was super inefficient when he got the full load

 

[SmokingMonkey]

I have a hard time using stats versus Seattle, especially AT Seattle, when gauging any fantasy player's success/future prospects.

Not gonna defend Coleman and say he had a good game, but what if that 2nd TD doesn't get called back?
And one of the few weeks falcons played with a lead the entire game - of course Quinn finally figures it out, run the ball when you are winning!!!

sound logic says get Freeman into the lineup, so I'll prob end up getting him in there.

Don't like the use draft stock to warrant starting him, but the last few seasons he's been great, so going off of that.

kinda surprised no one thinks Damien Williams is set up for a nice day vs the Patriots.
Should be playing from behind the whole game so that'll put him on the field, Pats giving up a healthy 150+yds from scrimmage per week to RBs.....just thinking he gets 5-6 rec and 70-80yds, seems like a safe but unexciting play this week

 

[leftypower]

I'll defend Coleman - - he got pretty much exactly what I would have expected from Freeman at SEA. ...

 

[Barilko]

and as Monkey said he was inches form 6 more points...

 

[SteelersPride]

again i'll say its puzzing that they run run run when freemna is out

Ok I'll bite, what's this? Even the great and powerful googler machine couldn't tell me what slang this is

 

[molsaniceman]

Devonta Freeman (concussion) will practice on a limited basis Thursday.
Freeman remains in the concussion protocol, but this is a step in the correct direction after he was sidelined during Wednesday's practice. He is still questionable at best to face the Bucs, but he now at least has a shot. If Freeman cannot go, Tevin Coleman will once again have a workhorse role, this time in a better matchup.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

latest report showing Freeman unlikely to play.

Now i debate mckissic vs damien Williams vs ginn, starting 2 of those three

Unless they aren't playing - as is the latest on Freeman (out for wk 12). ....

Well, obviously if they aren't playing, but I would hope the OP would know that.

 

[SteelersPride]

i think he plays

 

[SmokingMonkey]

So now it looks like D Freeman is gonna play this week against the Vikes, tough run D/bad matchup

D Henry v Houston

or

D Freeman v Minny

have Freeman in, cause I'm still not sure i can bench him if he's playing, always good potential for TD. But Henry has been outplaying Murray and gets the rock when they have a lead, makes it tempting after seeing Collins have a decent day against HOU on MNF, and Henry is way better than Collins.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Can't get behind Henry's sporadic play... and DeMarco still gets TD looks.

 

[SteelersPride]

ive gotta decide b/w freeman or hunt

im starting gordan and drake

Think I'm going Hunt there. Weird that Drake is probably the right call over one of them.
