2015-16 Start/Sit Week 5

[rangerssharks414]

Only one of my 10 teams is 4-0... (yes, 10 teams)

[Beauner]

Ingram vs. Philly or Yeldon vs TB?

Ingram has been solid but might have carries taken away by Spiller and Robinson...Yeldon had a good week 4 and is the unquestioned #1 going against a bad Tampa team.

 

[Nalyd Psycho]

Need to start three running backs out of these four:

Doug Martin vs Jax - A week after proving he does have juice, he gets possibly his best play of the year.

Todd Gurley @GB - Pro, his second half last week showed that he is legit. Con, Green Bay at home could not be a worse game script. Pro, Green Bays pass rush is their strongest defensive element, run defense is weaker. Pro, with five 20 yard runs in one half and the Rams having garbage in the passing game, Gurley may be game script immune.

Jeremy Hill @Sea - TD dependant against Seattle. But after a three TD game, he should have his swagger back and be ready to earn a bigger role. And the Bengals may even be favoured...

Duke Johnson Jr @Bal - Has established himself in the passing game, may be the Browns best receiver. No idea how to feel about game script or Baltimore's defense due to injuries and consistancy issues.

Thoughts?

Yeldon

 

[MJG]

Blount or Hankerson for my second flex spot?

 

[Terry Yake]

woodhead or martin for FLEX?

non ppr

 

[Trap Jesus]

Pick 2 (standard non-PPR):

C.J. Anderson @ Raiders (17th against RB)

Melvin Gordon vs. Steelers (4th against RB)

Alfred Morris @ Falcons (32nd against RB)

T.J. Yeldon @ Buccaneers (24th against RB)

This is more or less throwing darts blindfolded at this point. If I hit, I still miss the dart board. If I miss, I hit the person standing beside the dart board.

League One

My own picks are in bold.

Pick three WR:

Calvin Johnson vs Ari
Keenan Allen vs Pit
James Jones vs STL
Kendall Wright vs Buf
DeSean Jackson @ ATL (listed as questionable)

Pick two RB:

Eddie Lacy vs STL
TJ Yeldon @ TB
LeSean McCoy @ Ten (listed as doubtful)
Karlos Williams @ Ten (listed as questionable)
Isaiah Crowell @ Bal

Pick a flex from any of the players above. I'm leaning towards Crowell if Williams and McCoy don't play, but I could go with Wright in that spot.


League Two

This team is a mess due to injuries right now. My picks are in bold.

Pick three WR:

Michael Crabtree vs Den
Kendall Wright vs Buf
Leonard Hankerson vs Was
Andre Johnson @ Hou

Pick two RB:

CJ Anderson @ Oak
Danny Woodhead vs Pit
LeGarrette Blount @ Dal
Andre Ellington @ Det (listed as questionable)

In this league, I do have some free agent options. At WR, I could drop Andre Johnson and pick up one of: Percy Harvin, Anquan Boldin, Roddy White, Reuben Randle, Eddie Royal. Thoughts?

Also, at RB, I could drop one of my guys and pick up one of: Rashad Jennings, Chris Johnson, Duke Johnson Jr, Darren McFadden.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Blount or Hankerson for my second flex spot?

Hankerson. Never trust Belichick when it comes to RBs.

woodhead or martin for FLEX?

non ppr

Martin

Pick 2 (standard non-PPR):

C.J. Anderson @ Raiders (17th against RB)

Melvin Gordon vs. Steelers (4th against RB)

Alfred Morris @ Falcons (32nd against RB)

T.J. Yeldon @ Buccaneers (24th against RB)

This is more or less throwing darts blindfolded at this point. If I hit, I still miss the dart board. If I miss, I hit the person standing beside the dart board.

Yeldon for sure. Then, probably Gordon.

I'd start Blount over Anderson for League 2.

Ingram vs. Philly or Yeldon vs TB?

Ingram has been solid but might have carries taken away by Spiller and Robinson...Yeldon had a good week 4 and is the unquestioned #1 going against a bad Tampa team.

I'd go Yeldon strictly due to volume. You know he'll get 20+ touches.

Need to start three running backs out of these four:

Doug Martin vs Jax - A week after proving he does have juice, he gets possibly his best play of the year.

Todd Gurley @GB - Pro, his second half last week showed that he is legit. Con, Green Bay at home could not be a worse game script.

Duke Johnson Jr @Bal - Has established himself in the passing game, may be the Browns best receiver. No idea how to feel about game script or Baltimore's defense due to injuries and consistancy issues.

Thoughts?

Comes down to Duke and Martin for me. I like Duke and think his role will continue to increase, but I'd go Martin.

Blount or Hankerson for my second flex spot?

I'm not completely sold on Hankerson, and could see Roddy more involved this week. I'd go Blount.

woodhead or martin for FLEX?

non ppr

I'd go Martin. Solid matchup and he's coming off a solid week.

Pick 2 (standard non-PPR):

C.J. Anderson @ Raiders (17th against RB)

Melvin Gordon vs. Steelers (4th against RB)

Alfred Morris @ Falcons (32nd against RB)

T.J. Yeldon @ Buccaneers (24th against RB)

This is more or less throwing darts blindfolded at this point. If I hit, I still miss the dart board. If I miss, I hit the person standing beside the dart board.

I'd go Yeldon for sure, then I'm giving CJ one more chance just cause I don't love Morris or Gordon. Really a coin flip with those three though.

CJ Anderson @ Oak
Danny Woodhead vs Pit
LeGarrette Blount @ Dal
Andre Ellington @ Det (listed as questionable)

In this league, I do have some free agent options. At WR, I could drop Andre Johnson and pick up one of: Percy Harvin, Anquan Boldin, Roddy White, Reuben Randle, Eddie Royal. Thoughts?

Also, at RB, I could drop one of my guys and pick up one of: Rashad Jennings, Chris Johnson, Duke Johnson Jr, Darren McFadden.

I agree with most of your picks, but might get Blount in there over CJ. I'd drop AJ ASAP for any of those receivers but maybe Boldin. I like Duke more than CJ, so I'd strongly consider that.

 

[irunthepeg]

Standard scoring:

Donte Moncrief @HOU
Leonard Hankerson vs.WSH

My bye weeks work out so that all my other questions are decided for me I'm actually rolling with Alex Smith (vs. CHI) at QB this week over Derek Carr (vs. DEN). I don't know if I should or not...

 

[habsjosh2k2]

Who would you start at Flex? (.5 PPR)

Hillman vs Oak
Clay vs Ten

Clay has been pretty consistent over the last few weeks, but Hillman should be getting more carries this week and is going up against a lousy Oakland Run defence.

Leonard Hankerson vs.WSH

Hankerson has been wildly inconsistant, either a wr 1/2 or a do not play. Moncrief has the much stronger floor.

Now with Luck out?

 

[TootooTrain]

all are ppr

T.Williams vs SF
CJ Spiller @ PHI

Stevie Johnson vs PIT
Thomas Rawls @ CIN
(if lynch doesn't play)

Charles Sims vs JAX
Boobie Dixon @ TEN
(deep league)

 

[Beauner]

Ingram vs Philly or Latavius vs Denver?

I know I asked about Ingram earlier but I didn't realize the Raiders are playing Denver. That could be a tough matchup.

all are ppr

T.Williams vs SF
CJ Spiller @ PHI

Stevie Johnson vs PIT
Thomas Rawls @ CIN
(if lynch doesn't play)

Charles Sims vs JAX
Boobie Dixon @ TEN
(deep league)

I'd go Williams, Rawls and Sims.

 

[JRull86]

Non-PPR.

Pick 2 WR spots, and 2 flex spots out of the following:

WRs: Jones, Moncrief, Jeffery, Watkins, Sanders, and Hurns
RBs: Duke Johnson, Charles Sims

Right now I have Sanders and Hurns in as my WRs, with Jones and Jeffery in as the flex. Not sure what to do here, too many options, but a lot of question marks with all of them, especially Moncrief with Hasselbeck throwing to him again.

 

[Terry Yake]

james starks, boobie dixon, boom herron, or andre williams?

as you can see i'm running extremely thin at RB with mccoy and williams out. hyde's been pretty awful lately too

 

[Nalyd Psycho]

Now with Luck out?

Even still. Moncrief was better last week than Hankerson was in weeks one and three. Hankerson can explode and be amazing, but he coukd also be a dud. If you want to swinger for the fences, go with Hank, but you could also fail.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

PPR league

Rashad Jennings vs Shane Vereen vs Leonard Hankerson.

Alright your logic works for me. I'm gonna do it. Most of my opponents players aren't too fearsome except Gronk. I'll go with the hopefully consistent player.

 

[glasgow26]

I agree with most of your picks, but might get Blount in there over CJ. I'd drop AJ ASAP for any of those receivers but maybe Boldin. I like Duke more than CJ, so I'd strongly consider that.

Cheers. I dropped Andre Johnson for Reuben Randle. Do you guys think Randle is worth starting over Crabtree, Wright or Hankerson this week? Also, just noticed Tavon Austin is a free agent. Is he worth picking up at the expense of one of my other receivers?

Also, still not sure who to start as my flex in my other league. I'm trying to decide between Isaiah Crowell and Kendall Wright. My gut tells me to always go RB in that spot, but I have a feeling Wright might have a big week.

Im sorry.

 

[glasgow26]

Looks like dropping Andre Johnson was the wrong call. Figures he'd go off the one time I didn't start him

 

[Dr Pepper]

FFS.....I have Luck locked in as my starter on a 3-0 team....forgot to check before tonight.

Man does he ever suck at fantasy football this year, he's killing me!

Turn it around already.
