Random FF Thoughts

[averagejoe]

It sucks when you're real football team loses, and all your fantasy squads stink in the same week!

Well I think being Texan and Bills Fans the odds are good. At least your boys are about to turn the corner

You can add the Bears to the list. 1985 is a distant memory as far as I'm concerned. No fix seems to work. No draft pick seems to make a difference. (Yet they work for every other team.) Frustrating.

Anyone watch the Cardinals game? I'm curious as to whats goin on with Michael Floyd. I know they are trying to bring him back slowly from his hand injury, but this week he was supposed to see some sort of "uptick" and he delivered a fat goose egg. I have him in 2 leagues and I'm wondering if he is worth holding onto at this point.

I watched the debacle at Soldier Field.
Brown seems to be the guy to own. Fitz was supposed to be yielding playing time for Floyd and Brown. Guess they had other thoughts Sunday. Floyd was targeted once in week 2. No catches.

This might be a no brainer but my tired brain is struggling with this decision... Would any of you drop TJ Yeldon for Dion Lewis? Standard scoring.

Other droppable options: Ryan Mathews, Sammy Watkins

I'd think hard about dropping Mathews. Keep Yeldon.

Yup

I thought about that... Pretty difficult decision to make when we haven't seen what the Eagles offense can do. There's a lot of "what ifs" with that. And I've learned many times in FF that if I rely on those "what ifs" for too long I usually get left in the dust.

You and me both, brother.

Yeah. I think the only reason to roster Mathews is as a Murray owner.

I'd also keep Yeldon.

Davante Parker..

cut my losses and try for someone else? ill probably drop roddy white for someone.

If you drafted Parker there's no reason to drop him. Were you really expecting much in September? You shouldn't have...

White, you can drop, he'll have some games, but the consistency isn't there anymore.

duh..

i meant adams..why was parker on my mind

 

[TKOSpikes]

No way. I wouldn't drop Adams. If you're worried, just trade him after his first big game. It's coming...

I'd drop Matthews for him in a heartbeat; Just go into it knowing that what happened to Blount owners that decided to start him last week WILL happen to Lewis owners at some point this year................look up Vereen's numbers leading up to the SB then look up his numbers in the SB...............it's what you get with Billy Check

Good point. I'll keep that in mind if I get him. I have Le'Veon Bell returning this week. Which is great timing considering my other RB, Jeremy Hill, took a hit to his value last week.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Which side would you choose?

Side A: ODB & Gore

or

Side B: Newton, John Brown, Foster

Things to consider: Side A just lost Romo, but has Rivers as a backup.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Also... Which WR would you stash out DeSean Jackson or Victor Cruz?

Jackson. Way more upside imo. Cruz is a huge question mark.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Jackson. Way more upside imo. Cruz is a huge question mark.

Thanks!

While I have ya... Which WR would you start out of: Jordan Mathews (@NYJ), Sammy Watkins (@MIA), or Markus Wheaton (@STL)?

To be honest, Wheaton looks like he has the most upside. But he has yet to make a big mark in the offense. The homer in me wants to say he'll find payday finally lol. Mathews has been great, but the team seems to be in shambles and they play arguably the best defensive secondary at their home turf (a date with Revis). Watkins is surfacing, but he'll draw Grimes this week.

Yikes. I think I would still have to go Matthews even with the tough matchup. Sometimes you just gotta go with your best no matter what.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Agree with chef, although you could be right on with Wheaton. Robinson had Grimes last week too... 155 and 2 TD. That said, the volume is just not there for Sammy yet. I'm disgusted they didn't even give him any short crosses last week.

Matthews will draw Revis, but the Eagles will move him around a lot, and Revis may not follow him every time.

Honestly not sure what I'd do here, but as the Romo owner, I don't think I could reject.
