Sit/Start week 1

[mouser]

NFL kicks off next Thursday, and already have an interesting decision for Thursday night. Note: This is TD Only scoring system.

pick 2 of 3 RB’s
- Chubb vs CIN
- Pacheco vs DET
- Montgomery at KC

Thinking Montgomery will be the odd man out here, but it’s close between him and Pacheco.

- Chubb vs CIN
- Pacheco vs DET
- Montgomery at KC

Thinking Montgomery will be the odd man out here, but it’s close between him and Pacheco.

I agree but… do we really know what Pacheco’s usage will be? He emerged but it’s not like KC RB has been a must-start the last few seasons. Plus a new OC? It’s not that I don’t like the player it’s more the uncertainty, even with a few preseason games.

That said, I am sure in this instance I would start him.

I think Pacheco is firmly established as the #1 RB with KC after his play in the second half of last season—his rookie year. He was also an effective pass catcher, though with low targets last season. I‘m projecting him to finish as the #10-16 fantasy RB. Expecting him to get a larger % of the RB touches and more receiving targets for KC this season than the % the top KC RB has gotten in recent previous years.

I’m not that worried about a new OC in KC—Andy Reid was calling the offensive plays when Eric Bienemy was the OC. And the “new” OC Matt Nagy was Reid’s OC in KC before joining the Bears, and Bienemy getting the OC job.

KC also runs more in the red zone and goal line than many casual fantasy football fans might realize.

Chubb should be a lock no matter what.

I'd probably lean Pacheco as the #2

TD only I would probably go Chubb and take a flyer maybe on Montgomery. I feel like Mont is going to have all the goaline work for the Lions just lake Jamaal did last season. he probably wont hit 17 tds but he should be a force.

dotson, hollywood, or thielen for flex?

dotson, hollywood, or thielen for flex?

1 pt ppr

I like Dotson.

If Kupp is out which seems likely I need to pick a flex between

RB - B. Robinson vs Ari
RB - D. Jackson vs Jags

 

[EpochLink]

My week 1 lineup:

QB - Patrick Mahomes
RB - Antonio Gibson, Kenneth Walker
WR - Devante Adams, Mike Williams
TE - Mark Andrews
FLEX RB/WR - Tyler Lockett
K - Justin Tucker
Defense - Baltimore

 

[Terry Yake]

I like Dotson.

i'd go robinson. colts RB situation is completely unknown

 

[Goose of Reason]

Pick 2 WRs, 0.5ppr - Evans, McLaurin, Dotson, Diantae, Sutton

Waiting for the injury report on McLaurin this week but I feel that regardless Dotson I would play over him as Terry may be eased in/play decoy if he goes. Diantae vs Evans feels like the ultimate floor play vs ultimate ceiling play.

tough picks. i would go off of maybe their matchups at cb as well.

 

[stempniaksen]

League A:

Brandin Cooks @NYG or Treylon Burks @NOS
Cole Kmet vGB or Gerald Everrett vMIA

League B:

Am I getting cute if I start Kadarius Toney (assuming he plays) over one of Dotson or Burks?

 

[TheAngryHank]

i'd go robinson. colts RB situation is completely unknown

Moss is out , Jackson starting.

 

[stempniaksen]

Moss is out , Jackson starting.

Moss could play and Hull is there as an option.

I could see Deon getting 15+ carries and I could also see him getting < 10 touches. High variance guy this week until there's a definite status update on Moss, but being back at practice has him trending the right way.

Pick 2 WRs, 0.5ppr - Evans, McLaurin, Dotson, Diantae, Sutton

Waiting for the injury report on McLaurin this week but I feel that regardless Dotson I would play over him as Terry may be eased in/play decoy if he goes. Diantae vs Evans feels like the ultimate floor play vs ultimate ceiling play.

There's bound to be some positive regression for Diontae if he's still going to get peppered with targets. He's the safest of the 5 names and I don't think his ceiling is significantly lower than any of the other names listed.

Personally I'd lean Dotson/Sutton over Baker's WR2 but I'm a little risk averse that way

 

[Terry Yake]

jets D or stream falcons D?

 

[IceColdBear]

Half PPR. I can play one of: Deandre Hopkins (vs NO), MIke Evans (vs MIN), or James Conner (vs WAS) in my flex spot.

I'm leaning towards Hopkins because he was the player I picked earliest in the draft, but I can make a case for all three of them.

The rest of my lineup in a ten team league:
QB Fields
WR Olave
WR Ridley
RB Bijon Robinson
RB Chubb
TE Waller
K Elliott
DEF WAS (streaming - they're playing Arizona)

I like Diontae and Dotson from that group.

A: Cooks and Kmet
B: yes

 

[Tuggy]

In my 12 team $$$ league, deep league with two flex spots. 0.5 PPR.

Looking at my second flex spot...

Addison vs TB
Charbonnet vs LAR
Elijah Moore vs Cin
Bateman vs Hou
Jaylen Warren vs SF
Achane @ LAC

I went all in on the young players hoping to strike lightning with one. Warren and Achane I'm not starting Week 1 but I'll keep them stashed for potentially later in the season.

I have Addison starting right now but I'm flip flopping on that. I'm considering Charbonnet. Seems like he may have a chance to contribute right away.

And could be a high scoring game with Cin/Cle so Moore could have a day.

 

[Tony Romo]

two parter, start 2 RBs full PPR.

Pollard vs NYG
Dobbins vs Texans
Gibbs vs Lions

Also my Flex, half PPR:

Kirk vs Colts
Pittman vs Jax

 

[The Abusement Park]

I‘m in overthink mode going into week 1… Need help on flex and RB2


RB: Chubb
RB: Mostert/Mattison/Montgomery
WR: Hill
WR: Evans
Flex: Cooper/Mostert/Mattison/Montgomery

I'd go Mattison RB2.

Is it a PPR? If so, Cooper Flex

Yeah full PPR.
