PPR.. Currently 2-0 QB: Ryan or Newton- Leaning Newton here RB2: Gordon, Sankey or Freeman Also, deciding on dropping Julius Thomas to streamline D. Currently have Jets D and Eifert
Need a filler for bum shoulder Brees: Mariota vs Indy (secondary is injured) Fitzpatrick vs Philly (defense is leaky and injured) Winston vs Housty All great match ups. Especially mariota and Fitzpatrick.
yeah that really sucked but atleast it looks like matt jones is steadily taking over the Washington lead back
If Walker is back Mariota. If Decker plays Fitzy. I'd stay as far away from Winston as possible this weekend. That's a scary matchup even considering how badly we've played on defense so far this year.
Dallas has been surprisingly good against the pass, even without Scandrick. Newton should be able to find some numbers against an NO team that is likely to be stuck in the mud without Brees. I lean Newton. RB2: I'm going to go out on a limb and say roll with Freeman since its a PPR. He should see a few targets, but I wouldn't expect much from him. But I do think he's got a higher floor than Sankey and a higher ceiling than Gordon, strictly PPR speaking. I don't see any reason to not keep riding the Jets D. Stick with them and keep stashing Thomas until you have need to do otherwise.
Need 2 RB out of Giovanni Bernard, Frank Gore, CJ Anderson, and Dion Lewis Also need to decide on a flex play between one of the above and Vincent Jackson...in a PPR.
Gore and Anderson. If Anderson can't get a nice game against Det., then theres reason to worry for those kicking themselves for taking him this year. I think he does get back on track this game. This is also a good matchup for Gore
Just can't have another week where I get only 5 total points out of my 2 starting RB. That was an absolute killer...especially when I had Bernard on the bench.
thats nearly impossible to predict though. nobody would ever know Hill would fumble twice and get benched haha. Fantasy can be so mean sometimes I didnt mention lewis because Patriot rb's are too difficult to predict who gets the workload week to week imo
I feel ya. I Ingram and Hill both had fumbling issues for me last week too. Luckily I had Fitzgerald, Brown and Palmer carry me to victory.
Thanks for the solid advice. I think you're right about stashing Thomas. Freeman is projected for 15.28 which seems pretty high, if he gives me 75% of that I will be a happy owner.
@AdamSchefter Packers listing RB Eddie Lacy and WR Davante Adams as questionable for Monday night vs Chiefs. i have both...whats everyones thoughts? i need to sit both?
Questionable tags on a Monday Night are a pain. You risk having no options if somebody is out. Try to find out as much as you can but if it seems iffy play your backups.
