Week 3 Fantasy Help Thread

by TM Moot Thu 22 Sep - 9:52

Here's one for you wise ppl...

Plaxico Burress (@ OAK), Cadillac Williams (BAL) or Mark Ingram (HOU)?
Need 2 from 3.

Was thinking definitely Cadillac and most likely Ingram, as Burress scored a big fat 0 last week.

by Grizzly Thu 22 Sep - 10:06

I'd go Burress and Ingram, but I'm 0-2 and odds on to be 0-10 by Thanksgiving so you're best off ignoring me.....

by Grizzly Thu 22 Sep - 10:13

Anyone with Jerome Simpson in their team may want to delve into the FA market - according to reports his home is a drug distribution network and was yesterday searched by police who found 6lb of drugs.
He could be busy for a while....

by cherriesfna Thu 22 Sep - 10:33

Marshawn lynch or willis mcghee

by BamBam Thu 22 Sep - 12:13

Mcgahee - he got 28 carries last week so they are committed to him

I have sent u a couple of trades cherriesfan, let me know what you think

by BamBam Thu 22 Sep - 13:00

A few questions of my own (I have 4 teams)

DeAngelo Williams or jahvid best
Mike Williams or manningham
Schaub vs saints or Stafford vs Vikings

One of my teams has me spoilt for choice at WR and RB - Steve Johnson, jordy nelson, starks or Hightower for my flex position

Winslow or Daniels

by Forward Pass Thu 22 Sep - 13:27

I hope this is not helping against myself have not checked your team

Best for now [Deangelo hasn't got started yet]
Williams [Manningham probable non starter]
Tough call but I like Stafford

Wow what a good selection for flex Starks for me then Hightower

Not sold on either but Daniels for me

by BamBam Thu 22 Sep - 13:43

Na I purposely avoided any questions with my team for our league lol this is all other leagues. Thanks for your input pretty much what I was going to go with, Starks and hightower are my hardest call

by GB1919 Thu 22 Sep - 15:32

I'd say exactly the same as Forward Pass on all the options. I think Schaub will be throwing a lot this week so Daniels seems like a good decision.

I'd also go Burress and Williams and McGahee over Lynch.

Freeman or Fitzpatrick?

by **Pr4wn** Thu 22 Sep - 17:03

I'd got with Fitzpatrick. He may well be playing catchup against the Pats and also, Henne threw for over 400 yards against them...

Winslow or Ben Watson?
Danny Woodhead or Deji Karim as flex?
Ochocinco, Helu or Jon Stewart as flex?
Vernon Davis or Dustin Keller?

by Forward Pass Thu 22 Sep - 17:08

Fitzpatrick for me , Pats have conceded a lot of yards
Bucs have only played 1 really good half so far

From earlier
Williams & Ingram over Plax & Def Mcghee over Lynch

by Forward Pass Thu 22 Sep - 17:10

Winslow
Woodhead but Deji will get more carries each week
Helu then Stewart
Keller

by Forward Pass Thu 22 Sep - 17:23

A couple of my own

Newton or Rivers

3 from MJD,Hightower,Felix J,Moreno,DeangeloW or Dez Bryant[flex option]

3 from Bradshaw,Mathews,Tate,Felix Jones,Daniel Thomas

by BamBam Thu 22 Sep - 18:01

I would take Rivers but that is one of the few qbs I would have over Newton atm.

MJD, Hightower and Bryant
Bradshaw, Matthews, Tate

by Forward Pass Thu 22 Sep - 19:06

Cheers
Agree with that

Rivers... don't bench your stars and how many points did Stafford get against the Chiefs.
MJD, Hightower, Felix Jones.
Bradshaw, Matthews, Tate (if Foster is out, otherwise Felix Jones)

-------------------------------
Two of my own. 2 backs and a flex from:
L. McCoy (Obvious Choice IMHO), B. Wells, F. Gore, R. Matthews, D. Thomas

WR from:
S. Smith (CAR), N. Burleson or D. Bryant (If fit)

by RDuncan8 Thu 22 Sep - 20:06

Gronkowski or Gates

You're right McCoy is the obvious choice, followed by Wells and Matthews for me - the Chiefs suck at the moment.

I would start Smith, purely because the Panthers have forgotten how to run and the Jaguars probably couldn't defend me and you playing WR at the moment. Bryant is second choice only because he isn't fully fit and neither is Romo

by BamBam Thu 22 Sep - 20:18

RDuncan8 wrote:Gronkowski or Gates

You got a great situation, its a hard decision but Gronkowski has been in form, Hernandez looks like he is going to be out so I would go with him. But if Gates is going to break out its going to be against the Chiefs

by RDuncan8 Thu 22 Sep - 20:28

I need to get rid of one, not caring which one - for a half decent running back.

by SuperTanker Fri 23 Sep - 8:42

I need to pick two from the following - and this is a key week for me, my oppo are predicted some big points;

J Stewart
M Sims-Walker
CJ Spiller
Pierre Thomas

At the moment, Spiller is proving the hardest to decide about as I think with Parrish out he could be involved quite bit this week. On the bench, I also have Deji Karim and Delone Carter, but I'm not expecting to be starting them until much later rounds. What do you guys think?

Never bench your stud!!!

by **Derbyblue** Fri 23 Sep - 12:06

I need 6 with at least 2 RB and 2 WR other 2 are flex from:
Ray Rice, LeSean McCoy, Maurice Jones-Drew, LeGarrette Blount, Willis McGahee, Santonio Holmes, Mike Williams (Bucs), Devery Henderson, Dez Bryant.

2 from Big Ben, Stafford, Flacco, Sanchez.

2 from: Santonio Holmes, Anthony Armstrong, Brandon Gibson, Mike Sims-Walker, Jason Avant. I'm counting Andre Johnson as a definite starter.

I have gone with Keller instead of Gates for this week, undoubtedly it will be the wrong decision. Although I see Gates may not be playing.

SMH!!!!
I guess its your team. good luck im guessing youl need it

by TheBrownTown Fri 23 Sep - 15:45

Should I start Greg Olsen against the Jags or Tony Scheffler against the Vikings?

by RDuncan8 Sun 25 Sep - 8:10

David Nelson v Pats or Devery Henderson v Texanas

Greg Olsen unless Pettigrew is out for the Lions.

by skins4ever Sun 25 Sep - 14:25

Pierre Thomas or Hillis? Hillis is down with strep throat and likely to play but probably restricted. Thomas is sharing time with Ingram, so I guess its a toss up who will score more points?

by Dominic Dicoco Sun 25 Sep - 15:11

According to Schefter Hillis is out

by BamBam Sun 25 Sep - 16:46

I am going insane trying to pick my team for our league this week - managed to pick up Hardesty and now I don't know who to start!

by skins4ever Sun 25 Sep - 16:47

Dominic Dicoco wrote:According to Schefter Hillis is out

Browns haven't confirmed more than questionable, but I guess its not worth the risk when its pretty sure Thomas will at least play.

He is on the inactive list on NFL.com, if that counts as any confirmation.

by mikeygnfl Sun 25 Sep - 18:31

I don't have chance to chance my line up on Sunday afternoons so I'm stuck with Hillis in a number of my teams.

That happened to me with Foster as well in the first week.

by crazy_dave23 Sun 25 Sep - 18:35

just seen the weather in Charlotte... hilarious... in some of the clips you can barely see the ball through the rain

by BamBam Sun 25 Sep - 19:15

Now I'm just hoping the Panthers decide to run the ball seeing as you can't see far enough to pass!

As it happens I managed to pick up Hardesty from Waivers before KO. Given his getting the bulk of the carries, it worked out better than putting Thomas in there, but it highlights how fragile I am at RB. Might keep Hardesty another week as insurance.

by The Mangler US_UK Mon 26 Sep - 18:35

My team is imploding much like the Chiefs. My kicker had almost half of team's points. I do have Fred Davis going tonight, but he'd need to score 10 touch downs.
