Family Friendly Rap God Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 mike evans? if so, then decker Yes Mike Evans. I like him but as a rook and against Carolina's defense, I'm not so sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 You gotta give it a week and see what he does. I'm starting brandin cooks out of necessity but if I had any other decent option (my first bench wr was josh Gordon), I'd sit him too. Those guys could come out and put up 2 points for all we know.

3arl Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 So I'm strong at RB and weaker at WR and my friend is offering me Julio Jones and Vincent Jackson for LeSean McCoy and Cordarelle Patterson. Should I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I? I wouldn't. VJax is one of the most inconsistent fantasy players ever. I had him last season and he had 5 games of 5 pts or fewer but he had three 30pt games. Also Julio is fresh off of an injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yocaseycasey Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Last year my team was easy to come up with weekly rosters. I had McCoy, Charles, Bryant and Jeffrey as my RBs and WRs. This year's draft was rough and I have too much thinking.Who should I start everyone?QB: Tannehill or Alex Smith?I've read that Tannehill has a been working on a faster release and some fancy footwork, and they're playing NE so if the Dolphins get behind he's going to have to air it out. Smith had consistent numbers last year but I have a feeling Charles will be doing a lot of the heavy lifting if they get up.Flex: TY Hilton, Demarco Murray, or Riley Cooper?TY Hilton is one of MANY targets for Andrew Luck, and they're playing the Broncos, so I have a feeling this will be a shoot out and one big play could net Hilton 8-10 points. Murray seems the safest option as he is the bell cow for Dallas. But Riley Cooper is probably going to be Foles' go-to guy now that they've lost Desean Jackson. And they're playing JAX, which bodes well for some easy scoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I? I would never let go of McCoy. He won the league for me last year. You can rely on him for 15-20 points a week usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_jones Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Definitely Murray for flex out of those. For QB.... hit up waivers. I'd probably start Derek Carr over those two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebistro Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I got little too drunk at my draft. I got Cam Newton at QB.. but forgot to draft a backup. Manziel, Locker, Carr, Cassel, Henne, Fitzpatrick who do I pick up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Casey -- Alex Smith and Demarco Murray this week. You need to find someone with a solid backup QB and make a trade. Look for guys like Romo, Cutler, Kaep, Foles, etc (rounds 8-12 in most leagues). Probably a decent chance one of these guys is a backup and you can make a 2 for 2 trade (better QB + other position for weaker QB + other position). You can do well without Manning/Brees/Rodgers, but it's a passing league and you gotta have SOMETHING at QB. It would be a seriously uphill battle to try and win with what you have, unless you have ridiculously good RBs and WRs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamalatapes Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Gang I have St. Louis and Carolinas defense. Kind of a blockade strategy since St. Louis was still available in the latter rounds!

Family Friendly Rap God Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Yup you won't really need a back up to Cam... But out of your selection I'd go with Locker. Idk about that. Our coach is planning on going run heavy due to Cam's ribs still being hurt. He's wearing a super flak jacket and is being discouraged from scrambling so that might hurt his fantasy numbers.

thebiglebowski Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I'd keep the second D and switch them around for matchups. Assuming based on what you have posted that this is a very shallow league (8 teams?), so there is going to be depth on the wire all year. Do you think roddy or CJ could finish the year in the top 10 at their position? I don't. I see them as pretty reliable vets, and you already have a team full of pretty reliable players. I am just a fan of the second defense because it is the easiest position to play matchups on. If every week you have a top 10 D against a bottom 10 O, that is going to contribute more points to your team in the end than a 5th WR. But you really can't go wrong either way. There will probably be pretty good defenses on the wire all year too if needed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
