format is 2 WR 2RB 1 flex its a PPR league each catch is .5 points i am about to go 5-3 tied for second a game behind for first in a 12 team league...and i started out 0-2 I missed the draft at the last minute to help my dad out with a project so this is what Yahoo blessed me with (in draft order): shonn greene calvin johnson beanie wells jonathan stewart ochocinco favre owen daniels pittsburgh D bironas reggie bush dez bryant steve slaton vince young marcedes lewis i really should just dropped Greene but its hard for me to since he was my first pick and has given me absolutely nothing, Wells has been the same except the last two weeks he has been solid and hopefully continues that but the AZ QB situation is crap and is going to hurt him. The Pitt D has been great and I dropped Lewis a bit too early in favor of Pettigrew...Pettigrew has been more consistent for me than Lewis since its a PPR league so that stings a little but not too much. Bryant hopefully continues his last two weeks of solid play hopefully he gets a groove with Kitna, he was the only WR yesterday that didnt tip a pass for an INT for kitna. I still need a solid RB the most points i've ever gotten from the RB spot is 12.9 points that was this week with Wells and our league is dying at the RB spot the guy in 1st place pretty much has all the good RBs in the league via draft and not so kosher trades he has done with others in the league (not going to go into it but 1st place guy is commish of the league and there are 2 ppl in the league he only knows no one else does) Wells I feel will start to deliver consistently now that he is the full time starter and I do think Jackson will deliver really soon as well...Buffalo faced some good run Ds but he still got 20+ carries in both games the last two weeks coming off the bye. I am just getting impatient and keep seeing single digit outputs from my RBs
I was down by .08 points in this game. And I needed Hart to get another yard or something. He gets injured. Colts kick, and the other guy has Adam V. That beats me.
So I'll be needing a DST for the upcoming week. I've narrowed it down to three options I like. Thoughts: Giants @ SEA Raiders vs KC Patriots @ CLE
12 team head to head, 8 category(all traditional categories except no 3pts) Zach Randolph, Derick Rose for Amare, D Collinson who wins?
8-0 now... points leader by a moderate margin... with a very weak opponent this week... my team is on fire... hoping DJax and Roddy can pick up where they left off.
okay... I am QB poor (Eli Manning) and have a few decent WR (Tate, Johnson)... and someone just offered to send me Tom Brady for Terrell Owens Do I take it?
Definitely not the Raiders...can't stop the run. Jones and Charles should both top 100 yds rushing each.
Bleh. I'm 5-3 in one league where I'm 5th in total points with 779.7. I'm 3-5 in another league where I'm 3rd in total points with 769.5 (note: this league doesn't give a point to D/ST for each sack). It's pretty weird. My 5-3 team is the one where I drafted Ryan Grant, Dallas Clark, and Kevin Kolb, too. It has a more active waiver wire, as well.
The seahawks are really good at home but that Giants D is pretty sick. I bet they injure Hasselbeck. Go with Giants.
Agree. Raiders D has been outstanding past couple of weeks but I wouldn't start anyone against the Chiefs. That team gets yards in chunks and doesn't turn the ball over. Patriots D has potential against Colt McCoy, but I'd feel safer with the Giants.
I picked up the Giants for this matchup alone, but as a bonus, the Giants have some really weak offenses leading all the way up to week 14!
Brandon Jackson vs Dallas or BJGE vs Cleveland??? It's my only really question mark for this week. I have Ryan Mathews on the bench but I am still gun shy about starting the guy after so many weeks of injuries and just bad play. I put in a claim for Blount but I am 10 out of 12 so if anyone else was paying attention, I probably won't get him. P. Manning Foster ??? Hicks DJax Bowe A.Hernandez Raiders (I'll stick with them, they've been good to me these last few weeks even though I agree the Chiefs "O" is a tough nut to crack.) Rackers
PPR only hurts Turner's value, though at least it on .5 point per. This is a hard choice. I probably wouldn't do it, mostly because Calvin Johnson has been an absolute beast and I hate trading 2 starters for one. If you decide to go ahead and make the move, try to give up something lesser than Jackson as the second player.
It's still too early to make sit/start decisions for next week, but I don't like Brandon Jackson at all and BJGE gets it done every week so keep riding him. Also, I'd find an alternate at D/ST if I were you -- the Chiefs are giving up the fewest fantasy points to defenses in the NFL so far through 8 weeks.
