Amendola vs Burkhead......coin flip?

You got anybody else????

 

[SmokingMonkey]

that one is tougher... I don't think Burkhead is going to get too many touches... Amendola might be direct replacement for Edelman... as long as he is healthy he seems to be a decent player...

Thing about burkhead, he is the patriots jack of all trades... But they have the better between the tackle RB in Gillislie and the better receivers in james white and Dion lewis... I don't see Burkhead having a role with the team until Gillislie either gets injured or proves to be not that good... Both could happen very soon...

felt like the same was said about Woodhead when he was with the Pats, and he just kept getting more snaps and touches

I'll set this up on a proper post and off of this thread

Amendola: BB's surprise of Week 1.

Amendola: BB's surprise of Week 1.

No no...Rexy!! 10 catches, many from Edelman's slot, 70 and a score, 12 carries 50 and 2 scores! A man can dream

Not really a dream, that's the crazy thing about dealing with BB and the Pats' players...who the hell knows?

I think the biggest issue for me is a couple with Mike evans..bummer, but oh well, and, it pushes the Doug Martin suspension one more week, when i really didn't want to have to depend on another scrub at flex any longer than necessary

This yr has gotten off to a bad start. Evans out wk 1 in my $$ league and having to deal with this damn storm. Highly possible I don't even get to watch the first week of games. .... this sucks !!!

That does suck and I'm sure even cake will not help.

Who's your replacement for Evans?

 

[SmokingMonkey]

just found my favorite week 1 team in one of my leagues:

Ajayi
D Jax
D Parker
J Landry

all on the same team, hahahaha

someone really bought into the dolphins off-season hype train
surprised he didn't go ahead and draft Cutler as well here

Well, it kind of boils down to Allen Robinson or Chris Hogan. I have Crowder and D. Thomas as well, but they are already in the line up. League starts: 1QB, 2RB, 2WR/TE, and 2Flex (WR, RB, TE). RBs = Crowell, Hunt, Abdullah, Riddick, Kamara, J. Williams (GB).
Right now I have Crowell and Hunt at RB, Thomas and Crowder at WR/TE, Abdullah and Hogan at Flex. Anyone see it differently ?

The Jax/Hou game will be interesting. Houston doesnt have any returning starters available for week 1 and many will be making their first start on the OL. I think ARob gets his.

give me ARob over Hogan for week 1 - not that it has a shred of bearing on week 2's Patriot game plan, but I want to see their attack vs a good D like KC before determining my sit/starts on patriot players.

Not anything to really go on to make the switch, just my thoughts

That could be ... really torn on him - but who would you sit for him ?

Yea - quite a few ?? out there to start things off. Got a limping ODB in another league to fret over too.

 

[Chef99]

Targets; Arob over Hogan.

Not to mention that the Pats game is a Thursday kiss of death.

At first I didn't like that y'all forced me into taking both Beckham and Marshall in Bandit Dynasty, but now I actually am happy about it!
(just couldn't pass them up where I drafted them, Odell in the 1st and Marshall 13th)

Hogan

Sounds like an Arob sweep - my gosh I hope Bortles can throw a few within reach. .....

He might only get 1 out of 4 within reach but that one could go for 60 and a TD. My guess is you would take 12 from ARob
