The Rams play 3 TEs at times it seems while Fred Davis is running amok in Washington. I was on the Hendricks bandwagon but starting to lose my grip. Ticked me off yesterday to see him go out for routes only to have Bradford running for his life a split second after the snap. I see some potentially great TEs stuck in a multi-TE set from various teams, including Todd Heap out in AZ. Pick up Fred for Kendricks, but still start Vernon.
Yeah I ended up doing just that. Fred for Kendricks. The tough part now is which Davis to pick for week 3. Fred vs Dallas or Vernon v Cinci. Also did Ochocinco for Denarius Moore. Is Moore worth starting over Manningham (we'll see how he does after the concussion) or Santana Moss at this point? Also switched out The Bears defense for the Steelers...steal for me I think.
Manningham is the one guy that is ticking me off on my team besides Kendricks. He and Eli have absolutely no chemistry together right now. I should have know better than to pick him up. I had him 2 yrs ago and he did the same thing to me. I am seriously considering benching him. But this is also tough to do. You just don't know what you are getting with Manningham.
The fact he got a concussion by basically falling down was ridiculous. I lost my match up by 2 points. All he had to do is catch the ball clean and he would have scored. Now not only is he inconsistent, but this week you'll have to keep tabs on whether he plays or not (looks like he will at the moment)
Who are the best WR's going forward? I am going to dangle MJD for trade for a top WR given my depth at RB (Michael Turner, Beanie Wells, Fred Jackson, Ahmad Bradshaw, Daniel Thomas).
Who are you dropping to pick him up? Alas, I am in the same predicament. At least I have decent backup options, I suppose.
That would not be smart. If it is a PPR league, I'd get rid of Turner and Bradshaw. Then you can play: Fred Jackson (every week) MJD (every week) Then you have two great flex players in Bennie and Thomas is coming on. I like MJD way more than Turner.
Hey guys, I am in 2 BSPN leagues and am wondering what should I do in terms of starting rotations for runningbacks in both leagues (and quarterbacks for one). QB: Flacco or Fitzpatrick? Leaning heavily towards Flacco due to the fact that Fitz is playing New England (tho Henne beasted NE) but Flacco was pretty underwhelming last week (while beasted the week before). RB (starting 3. I have others but these are the only ones in the conversation): Ray Rice, Rashad Mendenhall, Matt Forte, LaGarrette Blount, Daniel Thomas, Ben Tate, Roy Helu Starting Rice/Forte for sure. Leaning towards Mendenhall for the third. Other league RB (starting 3. I have others but these are the only ones in the conversation): Ray Rice, Rashad Mendenhall, LaGarrette Blount, Fred Jackson, Shon Greene Starting Rice for sure. So it is 2 of the 3: Mendenhall, Blount, Jackson. Jackson has been the most consistent of the three but should him playing NE concern me?
so I am I overthinking things my picking up McCluster over producers like Fred Davis and Daniel Thomas for my Flex W/T? he listed as RB/WR, but I have a feeling he is going to see more time at RB with Charles on IR. that team is depleted of talent right now, so he leems like a high reward play... but quite frankly, so far he hasn't done *****
The same scary NE defense that was bottom 5 last year in pass defense and is #31 against the pass after week 2? If it's PPR absolutely go for Dex, he's become sort of the dump off for Cassel. But standard probably not, it's not like they're going to become a high powered offense once he comes in so I wouldn't expect TDs. He'll split with Jones, and probably surrender goal line touches to McClain (not pancakes). Fred Davis is producing so well, and it looks like Shanny's finally got his system in place. The RB situation may waffle between Helu and Hightower, but Davis is locked in.
Is Jennings worth trading for? What would be a fair trade for him with the following players: QB: R. Fitzpatrick, K. Kolb RB: F. Davis, R. Rice, A. Bradshaw, L. Blount, R. Williams, K. Moreno WR: L. Fitzgerald, Julio, Jones, H. Ward, J. Knox, D. Jones TE: J. Graham K: Feely DEF: Eagles
If I had Jennings the only guys on your team that I would accept in a trade is Rice or Fitz, and I take it that you aren't really wanting to give them up. So, I don't see a viable trade on your team. Keep the dream alive, but I just don't see it.
I really like Stevie, but Jennings is a beast. Blount, in my opinion isn't on Jennings level. Stevie and Blount and close to equal.
I'd want Fitzgerald+, which probably wouldn't be worth it to you. Fitz gets the lion's share of targets and with that defense, Kolb will be passing all 4 quarters. Anything that gets you rid of Moreno is a good deal, but damn that guy really wants Blount. Depends on if you're comfy playing both Fitzpatrick and Stevie Styles, but I would say Floyd is a nonfactor. Branch, Stevie, Fitz would be strong enough that you could drop someone like Hines and get on the wire for a big breakout like D.Moore, Decker, or an injury backup like Redman or Gerhart.
