Fantasy Football Q&A

First topic message reminder :

Post all of your fantasy Football quandaries here!

Need two WRs from Sanu, Dobson, Hill and Jeffrey.

Plus three RBs from Forte, Gore, Bell, Johnson, Rice and Bernard.

Thinking of going

Forte
Gore
Sanu
Hill
Bernard

If Rice starts you have to play him against the Bills

I would say Hill and Jeffrey, but you should really trade an RB or 2 for a WR!

I'd also go Hill and Jeffery. Forte and Gore are must starts. I'd go with Rice if he's playing and failing that, Joique Bell if Bush doesn't play (I'm assuming it's Joique and not Le'veon). If both of these don't happen I'd start Bernard in a tough matchup against the Browns.

I have a trade that I'm struggling with.

I give up Andrew Luck and Josh Gordon for RG3 and Darren Sproles. 0.5 pt PPR, starting 2RB, 2WR and a flex. Here's the other options on my team:

WR: Andre Johnson, Antonio Brown, Josh Gordon, Denarius Moore, Stephen Hill, Kendall Wright
RB: Jamaal Charles, Frank Gore, Jacquizz Rodger

I'd say no personally... even if Sproles has more value in a PPR.

I'm not sure how long it will be until RG3 is RG3, plus Josh Gordon (provided he isn't traded) should be a focal point of the offence now that Richardson is gone.

If you get rid of Gordon you might be in trouble at WR because Dre' is oft injured and the rest of the wideouts are basically "crap shots" who you can never trust with any certainty

Edelman(ATL) or Wallace(@NO) for 1 flex? Going with Decker and Bryant as starting WRs probably

All depends on Amendola and Gronk...

Pr4wn wrote:All depends on Amendola and Gronk...

I was thinking that too, but I think they've both been ruled out

Not sure Edelman will score many TD's but with the amount of catches he is probably gonna get he'll rack up some nice yardage.

Wallace is a total crapshoot. Could make a catch for 10 yards, or could go off for 2 TD's and 150 yards.

Tough one

Amendola and the Gronk are both out as is Bradshaw for the Colts.

Edelman will be a steady performer. Wallace could have a big game if the Saints get ahead and the Dolphins are forced to go big?

On the Luck/ Gordon trade, I would stick with what you have got for now.

Stuck with Gordon and Luck. It was for RB depth but I'm 3-0 right now so don't need to change a thing.

Need one flex from Bernard pierce, Sidney Rice, McGahee, Michael Floyd or denarius Moore.

Sods!
You said to start Rice over Jennings!

Jennings has scored 21+ compared to Rice's 0!

Trade Steven Jackson for Lamar Miller?

I would Duncan

Need 2 RBs from Johnson vs Chiefs; Richardson vs Seahawks or Miller vs Ravens? Could play all of them but have better WR flex options.

WR options are Nelson, Marshall, Decker and Gordon.

Erm... Johnson, Miller + Nelson, Marshall and probably Decker as they are playing Dallas and I see plenty off points!

I'd probably say yes.
How long is Jackson out for... if he misses a couple more then its a clear deal, but if he is back say week after next its less good

Garnett Graham or LaGarrette Blount at flex?

I would go Blount he's getting a couple more carries each week

Agree with all of that
Especially the bit about Dekker:( 

Okay Ridley is out, SJax is out, Peterson is on a bye...I'm well and truly f'd. But lets try anyway.

One from Jason Snelling (NYJ), Brandon Bolden (@CIN), Marcel Reece (SD).

Well you should definitely go with Reece because of McFadden's injury. I'd probably go with Shelling over Bolden as he'll definitely see some third down work. Tough choices though.

Yeah i'd leave Bolden out of that trio

So NFLN's Ian Rapoport just broke the news that Zac Stacy will start for the Rams today. I thought he was way undervalued in the draft and i'm giving serious consideration to flexing him against the Jaguars.

FF question. Am I crazy???

Think I am starting him over Snelling.

RDuncan8 wrote:Think I am starting him over Snelling.

It's a total gamble but I feel like I should put my money where my mouth is. 
The Rams should have opportunities to run the ball on the Jaguars, they shouldn't be chasing the game.

Denarius Moore or Amendola?

Take it to the house wrote:Denarius Moore or Amendola?

Reports of Amendola being on a snap count today.

Think i'm going to flex Stacy but STL have all their RBs active so it could be a real mess and total pot luck. Joique Bell making a last min push for the flex position with news that Johnson is out. 

Might not matter twelve, since I'm playing Ben Tate at RB with Martin on a bye!

Should I acquire Romo in exchange for Spiller?

I already have Forte, McGahee, Pierce and Hillman. I've currently got Eli at QB...

I would say no .. after Forte you have not very much at RB.

How many teams in the league? You could try playing matchups at QB off the waiver wire, I'm still expecting (hoping) Spiller to go bonkers at some point this season

12 team league. This guy also has Stafford...

Matt Stafford or Russel (last name) Wilson

Edelman, Emmanuel Sanders or Golden Tate for 1 flex? 
Sanders has been a bit of a disappointment so far tbh, thought he would have better numbers as the No.2 WR, Tate is very inconsistent and Edelman will see his numbers drop as a result of Amendola. So I'm not really sure who to go for?

crazy_dave23 wrote:Matt Stafford or Russel (last name) Wilson

Tough one. Probably Wilson for me.

Should I trade Josh Gordon for Knowshon Moreno?
Starting 2RB/3WR/2FLEX.
RB's: Peterson, SJax, Ridley, McGahee, Sproles.
WR's: Welker, Decker, Jordy, Jeffrey, Cecil, Gordon, Pettis.

Too much Broncos? or is there no such thing?  

See if you can trade Decker instead.

I need two RB, two WR and one flex from:

Forte, Spiller, McGahee, Hillman, Pierce, Cobb, VJax, Nicks, Keenan Allen, Randle.

Also, Eli vs bears or big Ben vs jets?

Agree with Pr4wn see if you can trade Dekker
Otherwise yes trade Gordon

Forte , McGahee , Cobb , Nicks for sure & probably Spiller

Ben , just because he now has a running game which the Giants don't

I'd go with Forte and Spiller plus Cobb, VJax and Nicks.

Big Ben. Jets will shut down the run game and he'll have to throw it. Eli is going to be under pressure a lot and may throw another 3 interceptions.

Play Eli because I'm going to.

Should I drop Ponder or will he get his job back?

Drop him. There must be better on the waiver wire...

The available are Geno,Locker(Injured), Manuel (INJ), Fitzpatrick.

Tbh they all suck  So I would be unsure on who to take.

Matt Cassel or Nick Foles?

They are both available as well!
Who should I take?

Geno Smith is the best option and I say that in a totally non-homer way.

Personally I'm not a fan of Geno, so you can rule him out tbh.

Cassel if he gets the start

In what I would describe as a luxury decision...
3 from...

AJ Green (@DET)
Wes Welker (@IND)
Jordy Nelson (CLE)
Justin Blackmon (SD)
Vincent Jackson (@ATL)
