Antonio Gates is my TE, and he's dealing with a MCL sprain. Right now, it looks like a game time decision on if he plays. Who would you guys rather play in place of Gates: Clay vs JAC or Reed vs TB Thanks!
I've always rated Reed. It's his first game back though so that might be a bit risky. Clay for the week, Reed for ROS
Blount with -3 yds yesterday?!?! Luckily I have C.Johnson playing tonight and I'm only down 4 pts. Other person has A.Elington. So I SHOULD win this week otherwise I might cry. Got offered P.Manning for Eifert. I also have Barnidge and I split QB's with Carr/Mariota but I'm leaning towards no go for that trade.
After starting 0-5, the pieces are finally starting to come together and I've won 2 straight. After being a bottom-dweller to start the season I am know surprisingly pretty deep, and was wondering who I should start going forward? QB: Rivers, Manning RB: Miller, Stewart, Bernard, Hillman WR: Dez Bryant, ODB, Fitzgerald, Diggs, Cooks I can start 2 RB's, 2 WR's, and a flex, and an unsure what to do. I have basically locked in Miller and ODB as my starters, but should I give Dez a week to get acclimated? Would you start Diggs or Fitz? Tough to decide Unsure about my 2nd RB spot as well. J-Stew has pounded tough run defenses two weeks in a row, Gio is consistent as can be, and Hillman is now being reported to be the lead back in Denver. I'm trying to make a 2 for 1 trade to get a stud at RB, but if I can't figure something out who would you start going forward?
If Miami keeps it up Miller is a must start, but let's see how they perform against real competition over the next couple of weeks. RB2 and flex should be based on matchups but more often than not Fitz should probably be your flex. Plug Dez in as soon as he's back (likely week 9).
Moe Who do you like better McFadden or Polk? I don't think blue is gonna get much reps imo and he sucked early in the season when he did and it looks like McFadden is getting the bulk of the carries over c-mike and especially with randle hurt. I put in waivers for both with McFadden being the more important waiver.
More depressed about Foster as I'm a Texans fan, but he was my RB1 in a 1-PT PPR League and I'm looking to replace him. Currently I have a rough RB setup of Lacy, CJ Anderson, and Dexter McCluster. My WRs however are Hopkins, Cooper, Maclin, and AJ Green. Everybody knows I'm in a bad spot, and are forcing my hand requesting for Hopkins. The best I've received is Hopkins + Anderson for Ivory. Do I take that, knowing that I'm deep at WR, or do I roll with what I have and hope I luck out on the waiver wire, maybe Polk plays well? Another option could be Amari Cooper for Jeremy Hill, but I feel like that's giving up a ton for a borderline Flex some weeks.
You must learn the art of negotiation. You reject bad trades no matter what. Do it immediately. You want to show that guy that you won't even consider his piss-poor offer. Even include a message that says "**** off" or something like that. There is never any good reason to trade from a position of weakness. Since it is a full point PPR, you have options for RB fill-ins. Theo Riddick, Danny Woodhead, etc. These are guys that you can try to target by offering a trade without them being the focal point of the trade. Guys like that are likely on other people's benches and they won't think to much of unloading them. Trading Hopkins for Ivory in a PPR is ****ing insanity. You'd cripple your production. Stick to your guns and don't accept the best available offer, hold out for the better offer.
i need 5 points from palmer... RIGHT NOW edit: god damn it. also the guy i was tied with for first just won by .5 because his opponent had arizona's kicker and missed the xp.
The weirdest week. -Got a matchup with someone who owns Devonta Freeman, Gurley,OBJr and Tom Brady. -Everyone seems to be on Bye Week (Denver Defense, Demaryius Thomas, Alshon Jeffery, Tyler Eifert) or Injured (Dion Lewis, Dez Bryant, Antonio Gates) -Decided to not play DFS this week and took Martavis Bryant instead. -Pretty much ready to conceed Week 7 so the Week 7 Lineup is QB Luck WR Martavis Bryant, Jarvis Landry, Donte Moncrief RB Mark Ingram, Lamar Miller TE None K J Brown (Giants) Def None Ended up with 134.4 points and a WIN. My best score this year. Super miraculous...haa haa haaa
