[Carolinas Identity*]

I kinda can't believe I am asking this, but should I start Jay Cutler over Russell Wilson this week?

I kinda can't believe I am asking this, but should I start Jay Cutler over Russell Wilson this week?

Not against Denver.

 

[Terry Yake]

rivers vs KC or carr vs detroit?

 

[rangerssharks414]

rivers vs KC or carr vs detroit?

I think you have to start Rivers.

Edit: Changed my mind... start Carr.

 

[BGDDYKWL]

Sammy Watkins vs NE or Stevie Johnson vs KC?

I really like Watkins this week. The Pats don't have a Revis type, the Pats will be winning, and the Bills will have to throw a lot. I'm strongly considering flexing Watkins this week.

Pick three WRs:

Michael Crabtree @ Det
Rishard Matthews vs Dal
Kamar Aiken vs STL
Michael Floyd vs Cin (listed as questionable)

Floyd's been on fire lately but it's tough to trust him in a Sunday night game. I'd like to see a full practice this week otherwise I'd go with the other three.

Pick two RBs:
LeGarrette Blount vs Buf
Charcandrick West @ SD
Ronnie Hillman @ Chi
Danny Woodhead vs KC

Solid options, but I think you have to go West and Blount.

Pick three WRs:
Calvin Johnson vs Oak
DeSean Jackson @ Car
Brandon LaFell vs Buf
Golden Tate vs Oak
James Jones @ Min
Dorial Green-Beckham @ Jax

DGB has too low a floor for my taste, so no need to roll the dice there. Jones has been quiet lately. The Skins lit it up last week and DJax still did nothing. I'd go Calvin, LaFell, Tate.

Pick two RBs:
LeSean McCoy @ NE
TJ Yeldon vs Ten
Eddie Lacy @ Min
Joique Bell vs Oak

I really don't like Lacy or Bell so as long as Yeldon's a go Thursday I'd go him and McCoy. If he's ruled out I think you gotta go Joique (even though he had something like an abysmal 17 yards on 14 carries last week).

Pick a flex from any WR or RB from Team 2 above.

I'd probably roll the dice with DGB at this point since I don't really love Jones or DJax this week.

I kinda can't believe I am asking this, but should I start Jay Cutler over Russell Wilson this week?

Most weeks I'd say Cutler but you gotta go Wilson given the matchups.

rivers vs KC or carr vs detroit?

These are my options and I'm going Carr. He's been as good lately, SD is severely banged up, and Carr has the far better matchup.

 

[RedRenegade]

Pick two for RB2 & Flex slot:
Ivory @ Hou
Blount vs Buf
Stewart vs Wsh

And for my WR2, Allen Hurns vs Ten in the Thursday nighter or TY Hilton @ Atl? Thanks

 

[Trap Jesus]

Yeldon or Hurns vs. the Titans on the Thursday night game (non-PPR)? Both are banged up but likely to go. Titans are 6th best in fantasy points against for RB, 13th best in fantasy points against for WR.

 

[Beauner]

Guy I'm playing against has Derek Carr...do I start Crabtree over Jeffrey, who's playing Denver?


Edit: and to the above, I'd go Yeldon. Yeldon will get a ton of carries most likely and Hurns' streak of touchdowns has to end at some point, right?

 

[Trap Jesus]

Broncos D vs. #1 and #2 WRs this year (I mainly went by snap counts, but made some concessions in places where teams have commonly accepted #1 and #2 guys).

Broncos vs. #1 WRs

Player | Receptions | Yards | TDs
Steve Smith | 2 | 13 | 0
Jeremy Maclin | 4 | 57 | 0
Calvin Johnson | 8 | 77 | 0
Mike Wallace | 8 | 83 | 1
Amari Cooper | 4 | 47 | 0
Travis Benjamin | 9 | 117 | 0
Randall Cobb | 6 | 27 | 0
T.Y. Hilton | 5 | 82 | 0
Jeremy Maclin | 3 | 17 | 0

Broncos vs. #2 WRs

Player | Receptions | Yards | TDs
Kamar Aiken | 1 | -1 | 0
Albert Wilson | 0 | 0 | 0
Golden Tate | 5 | 57 | 0
Adam Thielen | 6 | 70 | 0
Michael Crabtree | 4 | 54 | 0
Andrew Hawkins | 1 | 25 | 0
Davante Adams | 1 | 8 | 0
Donte Moncrief | 3 | 30 | 0
Albert Wilson | 1 | 16 | 0

So, point is that there is essentially zero upside here, and colossal risks for guys just getting completely shutdown. When the Broncos give up passing TDs, it's to TEs, RBs or WRs buried on the depth chart. That doesn't mean that clear #1 guys can't have "OK" days though (ie. 70/80 yards). I would expect Jeffery to come in around there, although Crabtree seems like a safer start.

Shockingly Minnesota was the only team that had a good deal of success with their WRs (I didn't even include Diggs who went 6-87-0).

 

[Karl Eriksson]

Full PPR, pick 2:

Amendola (BUF), Cobb (MIN), Crabtree (DET), Woodhead (KC)

 

[Karl Eriksson]

Yeldon or Hurns vs. the Titans on the Thursday night game (non-PPR)? Both are banged up but likely to go. Titans are 6th best in fantasy points against for RB, 13th best in fantasy points against for WR.

I'd go Hurns, he has scored in his last 7 games, and the Titans secondary is banged-up.

Wow, awesome analysis.

Full PPR, pick 2:

Amendola (BUF), Cobb (MIN), Crabtree (DET), Woodhead (KC)

Full PPR, I'd go Woodhead and Crabtree. Amendola might not be bad play but I'm the kind of person who likes to give it a week to see how a guy is used once he moves up the depth chart due to injury.

 

[le_sean]

Is this the week to try David Cobb in flex?

 

[rangerssharks414]

Pick two for RB2 & Flex slot:
Ivory @ Hou
Blount vs Buf
Stewart vs Wsh

And for my WR2, Allen Hurns vs Ten in the Thursday nighter or TY Hilton @ Atl? Thanks

Ivory, Stewart and Hurns (edit: misread)

Yeldon or Hurns vs. the Titans on the Thursday night game (non-PPR)? Both are banged up but likely to go. Titans are 6th best in fantasy points against for RB, 13th best in fantasy points against for WR.

Hurns, but I wouldn't argue if you went Yeldon

Guy I'm playing against has Derek Carr...do I start Crabtree over Jeffrey, who's playing Denver?

Crabtree

Full PPR, pick 2:

Amendola (BUF), Cobb (MIN), Crabtree (DET), Woodhead (KC)

Amendola and Crabtree

Is this the week to try David Cobb in flex?

Nope

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Need a flex in .5ppr

Cobb vs Min ugh
Hillman vs Chi
Hill vs AZ
Starks vs Min
DeVante Adams vs Min

 

[rangerssharks414]

Adams got almost 20 targets last week. I'd go with him.

 

[BGDDYKWL]

Pick two for RB2 & Flex slot:
Ivory @ Hou
Blount vs Buf
Stewart vs Wsh

Stewart's been better lately but I'd still sit him here.

And for my WR2, Allen Hurns vs Ten in the Thursday nighter or TY Hilton @ Atl? Thanks

Hurns practiced this week so I'd go with him.

Yeldon or Hurns vs. the Titans on the Thursday night game (non-PPR)? Both are banged up but likely to go. Titans are 6th best in fantasy points against for RB, 13th best in fantasy points against for WR.

I like Yeldon, but he seems more banged up than Hurns, Hurns practiced yesterday, and Hurns has been on fire.

Guy I'm playing against has Derek Carr...do I start Crabtree over Jeffrey, who's playing Denver?

I don't factor the QB/WR stuff in, but Trap Jesus's stats were very impressive. I think based on those Crabtree is the better play, particularly with how banged up Jeffery is.

Full PPR, pick 2:

Amendola (BUF), Cobb (MIN), Crabtree (DET), Woodhead (KC)

I wanna say Crab and Cobb, but in full PPR Amendola has a considerably higher floor, so I'd give him the edge over Cobb, who's only had one good game in the last six weeks.

Is this the week to try David Cobb in flex?

Hopefully not. I'm sure he'll get more touches but unless you're in a 14-teamer my guess is you have better options.

Need a flex in .5ppr
Cobb vs Min ugh
Hillman vs Chi
Hill vs AZ
Starks vs Min
DeVante Adams vs Min

I'd go Starks. Adams has gotten a ton of targets but hasn't done much with them, and Cobb's only had one good week in the last 6. Outside of full PPR I'm a fan of starting the guy you know's gonna get touches. Hillman's interesting, but Starks is safer.

NE vs Buf or ARI vs Car

Warning, the following start/sit options may be visually disturbing:

TE standard
Vernon Davis @ Chi or Coby Fleeder @ Atl

RB2 standard
Antonio Andrews @ Jax or Charles Sims @ Phi

WRT Flex standard
Moncreif @ Atl or Terrance Wlliams @ Mia

 

[rangerssharks414]

Stewart's been better lately but I'd still sit him here.

You think so? The Patriots attempted 59 passes earlier this year against the Bills, and they were winning most of the game.

Arizona is playing Cincy, I thought?

I'd go with the Patriots.

Fleener, Sims, Williams

Hopefully not. I'm sure he'll get more touches but unless you're in a 14-teamer my guess is you have better options.

I don't because of a terrible bye week. Unless you consider Joique Bell against Oakland or Matt Jones in Carolina as better options.

Boldin available but he's in Seattle. Should I gamble on Sproles?

i'd stay away from sproles. unless your league counts return yards. murray/mathews get all the carries.

martin vs PHI
woodhead vs KC
K. Williams vs NE

which one for flex? non ppr

 

[Chairman Mallard]

Davante Adams or Crabtree?
