[Official 2012 NFL Season] Fantasy Football Lineup Advice Thread

posted in another thread, but Stafford is my starter...hate it when my starters go against the texans. Plus, I just don't know how the defense will respond. Another shoot out or will the defense run around and create havoc?

might check the waiver wire

 

Do I dare bench Brees against the Niners and scoop up Schaub or Kaepernick for the much easier matchups?

 

I wouldn't sit Brees. QBs like Brady, Rodgers, Brees, and Manning are matchup proof.

And I like Kaepernick over Schaub this week, so if you want to get cute and bench Brees, go with Kaepernick.

 

HOU pass D can be thrown on.

What are your options?

 

Pick one:

Dalton vs OAK
Stafford vs HOU
_______

Pick two:

BJGE vs OAK
Forte vs MIN
Mathews vs BAL
Sproles vs SF
_______

Pick one:

Pittsburgh @ CLE
Arizona vs STL
Minnesota vs CHI
New England vs NYJ

 

That's what I was leaning towards. But I will wait and see with Forte. If Cutler isn't starting, I may go with Sproles. Depending on his status as well. He's just been so consistent, while Forte has been up and down. Can't afford a goose egg.

 

Hey moes, is the parade over for Reece owners Or is Dennis Allen going to put the genie back in the bottle?

 

What do you guys think of Beanie Wells? Thinking of starting him over Leshoure...

 

Sproles in a PPR + return yardage league is RB1 worthy, but in standard scoring he's been performing like a flex this year. So it depends on your scoring b/c with just rushing attempts, Sproles isn't going to get many when shared with Ingram, Thomas, and now Ivory.

 

Me personally have never been a fan of Beanie.

I would start Leshoure for these reasons... guaranteed touches, majority of touches... not coming off an injury like Beanie, and at home.

HOU can be run on, Parmale picked up 80 on the ground.

HOU traveling on a short week and playing a Early 1130 game. Usually Thursday games are at night and they play like crap. I can see a lot of tired legs from HOU, and they played in OT with Jacksonville in a shootout.

 

So anyone have a take on whether or not the Blackmon resurgence is legit or is Shorts still a better option going forward? Shorts seemed to click more with Gabbert, so I don't know what to do if Henne is going to be in there now. Shorts still had a good game in HOU although it was overshadowed by Blackmon obviously.

 

Got offered Mike Wallace and the Niners Defense for Hakeem Nicks

any thoughts on this offer? My other WRs are Steve Smith (CAR) Cecil Shorts (JAX) and Danario Alexander (SD). I currently have the Bengals Defense

Should I stand pat with who I have or upgrade at Defense and take a chance that Wallace regains his form when Big Ben comes back in a couple of weeks?

 

I would stick with Shorts. He's quick/fast and finds a way to separate, and they obviously have a good amount of plays for him.

 

I think I would stick with Nicks. The NYG have a pretty good playoff schedule and just work the wire for defenses.

There saying week 14 for Big Ben, PIT has a a decent fantasy playoff schedule too, but there saying Ben's injury is significant... so I prolly wouldn't trust any of the PIT offense for the rest of the year.

 

Hey, I need some advice on waiver pick ups this week vs struggling starters

RB - Pick (2): Jamal Charles, Steven Jackson, Vick Ballard, Jalen Parmele
WR - Pick (2): Andre Johnson, Vincent Jackson, James Jones, Darius Heyward-Bey
Pick one flex WR/RB from that group too.

Also: Pick between Brandon Pettigrew and Jermaine Gresham at TE this week

Thanks for the help!

 

Pick 1 for Flex: Shorts or D. Alexander

 

pick 1:

stevie johnson vs IND
owen daniels vs DET
antonio brown vs CLE


think both brown and daniels are dealing with injuries...but daniels plays tomorrow..do i risk going with him or not?

 

RB - S. Jackson, Ballard
WR (this is the hardest one to figure out for me) - Andre, V. Jackson - really wanted to get cute and go Jones over Andre.

Flex - Parmele

TE - Gresham
