[Official 2013 NFL Season] Fantasy Football Lineup Advice Thread

That is my other rb (trich) besides Reggie bush. And I'm not benching him for anything. Although I am first in my league at 3-1

 

Yeah I'm 2-2 right now, climbed up to 3rd overall after the first 2 weeks, thankfully.

I'm also on the verge of benching Decker @ Dallas for Thompkins @ Cincy. I have Brady and I like how the Bengals cornerback situation has taken a hit, injury wise.

At the same time I'm not sure how Decker will fair against a weak Cowboys pass D. It can go either way, the way Manning is spreading the ball.

 

I'm tempted to bench TRich for Woodhead since he's going against an Oakland defense. But it's hard for me to bench my first round pick.

 

Not sure if I would go as far as benching TRich for Woodhead, who has averaged less than 6 points a game this season fantasy wise.

He's more of a boom or bust and if you're lucky you get a performance like he had against Dallas, but what are the chances anybody even started him this past Sunday over any of their other RBs.

 

Woodhead's last 3 games in ppr, since he took over as the 3rd down back -

14.4, 13.6, 25.6

 

Definite value in PPR leagues, standard formats, not so much.

6.40, 6.60, 21.60

 

Who should i start for my flex. Standard nfl rules.

Lamar miller
Stevie Johnson
Deangelo Williams
Sydney rice
Kendall Wright

 

I would go with Deangelo

 

Who would you rather start. 12 team PPR.

Robert Woods or Kendall Wright

 

Seems like Manuel has been looking Woods way.....a lot!

 

This trend of fantasy defenses going off against me on a weekly basis is starting to get really old. Grrrrrr

 

Non PPR league, standard scoring, should I start Marques Colston (@ CHI) or Kenbrell Thompkins (@ CIN) as my WR3 this week? Thompkins has been on fire, and it looks like Gronkowski and Amendola may sit out for another week... plus this is his homecoming in Cincinnati. That said, Colston is an established player with a decent matchup against the Bears, who have given up a lot of WR points this season.

Will rep for advice.

 

I'd still roll with Thompkins. CIN secondary is banged up.

 

Let me change my advice.

If either Gronk or Amendola play. I would play Colston.

If both out, I would play Kenbrell.

 

It looks like Gronk isn't playing, and I think Amendola takes away targets from Edelman and not Thompkins as much... since Thompkins is more of a deep threat and less of a possession receiver. It also looks like NE's running backs are all hurt, and Cincy's run defense is solid, so I'd anticipate a lot of passes. I've talked myself into Thompkins.

 

I used a waiver on CLE this week and it worked out for me. The punt return TD was pure luck, wasn't counting on that. Even w/o that it was decent.

 

Bolden or Blount in a ppr? To me it's Bolden all the way, EXCEPT that he seems to be battling something with his knee. Dammit.

Also what do people think about Michael Floyd this week? To me it all depends on Carolina's pass rush giving Palmer time to throw.

 

I like Andre Ellington in ppr as well. Should be able to catch some TDs here and there.

Blount is also a sneaky play in kick return yardage leagues. However I read a report that he is considered the third back at best. With Ridley and Vareen and Bolden hurt I like is chances for the next week or 2.

Also id look at stashing Mike Goodson. Sneaky good back, better than Ivory or Powell and great at pass catching.

 

someone sent em this trade:

I SEND:

Giovani Bernard

I RECEIVE

C.J Spiller

Im leaning to NO, since Spiller has dissapointed and now he is splitting carries with Jackson, and Bernard have a great upside, so what do you think.
also my other RBs are Forte and Doug Martin, so I dont need to start Spiller.

 

Jackson will probably fall apart soon and Spiller will dominate in the playoff Weeks.

Bernard is the sexiest RB upstart right now. Touchdown machine.

Similar situations and talents. Id lean toward Bernard.
