[Official 2012 NFL Season] Fantasy Football Lineup Advice Thread

Spoiler

I have no idea.... and not in the good kevC way.

AP is playing the Niners who haven't given up a rushing TD in what seems like ages, good thing is they play away from Candlestick.

I believe in Torrey Smith and feel like he can play better than he has and if I sit him now against a less than formidable Pats secondary I KNOW he will go off and have a tremendous game.

Trent finally was able to show what he was made of with Weeden throwing the ball a lot better than he didn't against Philly. As long as he give Trent the opportunity to not see 8-9 man boxes I feel like he can dominate.

Still I have no sure fire guys, even Julio let me down last night, so what do you guys think I can do....

BTW - I'm picking up the Packer or Jax D this week (whover doesn't get claimed) and have a waiver claim on Andre Brown as well as for Dennis Pitta.

 

Here's my week 3 lineup as of now.

Spoiler

I picked Bowe because I feel the Saints are the best DEF matchup amongst the WRs.

It'll be interesting to see how LeShoure is brought into the mix, but I still feel good about Smith for this week.

Thoughts?

 

I'd be tempted to go with Nelson over Smith.

 

Why is Jordy not in your starting lineup?

Week 1 & 2. He's not been in sync with Rodgers. I don't know if his luck will change against the Seahawks.

 

I hate James Jones from GB. So inconsistent. He gave me negative points and ended up losing by 5

 

It's my work league where it was only a $20 buy in, so that might be true, although there is plenty of activity it seems. I just got lucky on the snake draft. I also overbid the hell out of Morris. I'm definitely trying to trade in depth for an elite TE but I'm not sure if they're going to go for it. I swapped Chandler for Celek last week and I might swap back this week.

For your week, I don't see how you could possibly sit AP for at this point. Even if he's playing against the 49ers. I'd put him over Antonio Brown.

Anyone else have advice for this?

Re-post

 

^ Even though Reggie Bush has been hot and he's been playing at home, I wouldn't trust him vs the Jets (who lost last week so they'll be coming in even more pissed off. I wouldn't want any part of Redman, owned him last year and this year and he sucks. Alfred Morris is intriguing but Im not sure...Jamal Charles hurt his surgically repaired knee last week but Saints have the worst defense in the League.

Id try to drump Redman and try to grab Andre Brown (NYG @ CAR). Hes gonna be starting vs Carolina with Ahmand Bradshaw out

 

oops I forgot to ad...rest of the the lineup looks rock solid. Just RB2 seems iffy

 

Who should I start at WR3?

Lloyd @BAL
Rice DAL
D Jones @CLE
Manningham @MIN

Should I play Tate @ DEN over McFadden / PIT?

 

Lloyd. Motivated Patriots team coming off a loss and Lloyd hasn't been involved last 2 games with Aaron Hernandez out I think he'll get more targets

McFadden is a must play. Oakland has no other offensive options lol Steelers defense has been a little soft last couple of years when it comes to rush defense, he'll look great

 

Lloyd is tied for 9th most targets in the NFL.

 

8 catches last week, and Lloyd isn't involved?

 

yea but almost no looks in the endzone. If hes just gonna get 6 to 7 catches and only 65 yards, thats not much considering how powerful the Patriots offense is. He needs more endzone looks and he'll get it now.

 

But 101th in yards per reception. They're just dumping it to him. He hasn't gotten endzone looks and neither is he racking up the yards. Hes a weapon thats been underutilized and I think the Pats will start using him more. Like I said hes a solid play next week and the coming weeks

 

I have SEA def playing GB this next week. Obviously, that's not an opponent I want my D facing. I'm thinking about adding either Arizona playing Phi or Dallas playing TB. I just don't know if it's worth dropping either Seattle or Ogletree. Thoughts? In my league, Seattle has more fantasy points than all my starters except for Stafford (who only has 2 more points). So D can either win or lose a week for ya.

 

1 ppr, 1 pt per 20yds of anything, 6pts per td
pick 3:
Nicks @ Car
DeSean @ Ari
Cobb @ Sea
Crabtree @ Min
Hawkins @ Was
Ogletree vs TB

Assuming healthy, I'm going with the 1st three. Arguments can be made for Crabtree (consistently targeted) over Cobb (hot and cold). I can also see Hawkins having a strong day since Cincy could very well hang 40 on the Skins who are missing like 5 or 6 defensive starters (and giving up 30+ in 6 of their last 7 games). Ogletree is a wait and see for me at this point.

 

Take Arizona, best defense in the NFL last 10 regular season games played going back to last year. Plus Vick is throwing a lot of picks
