Pick 4 of these : Ryan Mathews, Fitz, roddy, Steve Johnson, josh Gordon or Titus young
Need 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex (WR/RB). PPR.
RB: Alf, Martin, Forte
WR: Antonio Brown, Fitzgerald, Demarius Thomas, Denarius Moore, Britt, Nicks
Non ppr
RB pick 2 : AP , Doug Martin , Alfred Morris
WR pick 2 : Stevie Johnson , Antonio Brown , Denarius Moore , Josh Gordon
TE pick 1 : Joel Dreesen , Dennis Pitta
Need to pick two of the following. No PPR, 5 bonus points for 75+ yards.
Calvin Johnson @ Jacksonville
Jeremy Maclin @ New Orleans
Eric Decker @ Cincinnati
Non PPR:
Which 2 RB from :Spiller, R.Bush, Stewart, Fjax
Which 3 WR from: AJG, Julio, Nicks, Marshall
For the past 7 of 8 weeks I have not been able to pick the right QB out of Brees and Ryan. The only week I got right was when Matt Ryan was on his bye week. For the love of god, please help me get it right this week. The obvious pick is Matt Ryan right? I dont even know any more
Dalton or Rivers? Sigh.
In a standard scoring league start 2 rb 2 wr and a flex have to choose from these.
Doug Martin
Darren Mcfadden
Ray Rice
Julio Jones
Victor Cruz
Randal Cobb
Thanks
Cassel @ SD or Wilson at home vs MIN?
Standard scoring non-PPR, I need one WR and a flex
VJax, Cobb, Britt, D.Moore, CJ1K, McGahee
At QB do I go either Rivers, Vick, or Dalton?
And at RB I have to start 2 between McGahee, Mathews, and Dwyer?
This is a non PPR standard 6 points for all TDs.
Thanks guys!
Need 3 of the following RBs. PPR.
Arian Foster
Jamaal Charles
McFadden
Jonathan Stewart
Sproles
Thanks!
PPR Flex spot – J Stewart, D Brown, C Shorts
Non PPR
3-WR Cobb, M. Williams, A. Roberts, A. Brown and T. Smith
1-TE Olsen, Bennett and Pitta
1-RB F. Jackson, A. Brown and A. Green……. Pretty sure who, just checking cause Brown is scoring TDs.
Thanks
Need to start 3 d Thomas aj green Percy Hardin and Vincent Jackson……Thomas and green are must starts and would normally consider Harvin one as well but tough matchup and Vincent Jackson has a good one which makes it tougher
Have to start 3 Wrs in a non PPR format. DThomas, Bowe, Britt, S. Moss, Boldin, Hartline. Obviously I start DT and Bowe, but with the Britt matchup with Chicago do I try another or just roll with him?
Thanks.
2 WR, 2 RB, 1 flex, standard scoring, non-ppr
RB: McFadden, bush, Bradshaw, Stewart
WR: fitz, nicks, Moore, maclin, young
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m thinking of going with 2 WR’s, and neither is fitz or nicks.
PPR league starting 2RB 2WR 1TE and 1RB/WR/TE Flex
I’ve got another week of hard decisions. I am already rolling with J.Charles and Leshoure at RB….. right now I’m rolling with Fitz Maclin at WR and Bowe in my flex but I’m at a toss up with maybe benching Bowe and waiting it out and seeing if I can get Murrary in my flex spot. Going against that soft ATL run D he could do some damage, and if not then just go with Torrey Smith in that flex. This Thursday night battle of fantasy disappointments is killing my lineup plans. Thoughts??? Thanks in advance!
PPR League 2wr, 2rb, 1te and flex (wr/rb/te)
I’ve got Lynch locked into my first rb spot, Leshoure or Rashad Jennings for the #2? Owen Daniels at TE.
My Wrs are Nicks, Decker, Antonio Brown, Britt and Olsen(flex possibility)
Right now I’m looking at sitting Britt and Olsen but I’m unsure which player to sit as well.
All thoughts appreciated, Thanks
1. PPR, pick one: Jimmy Graham or Miles Austin?
2. PPR, pick one: Torrey Smith or Stevie Johnson?
3. PPR, pick three: Desean Jackson, Gonzo, Britt, or Dez Bryant?
Thanks!
M. Ryan vs Cowboys or RG3 vs Panthers (10 yard pass or rush = 1pt, TD = 6pt, Int = -3pt)
Need to start 3 of the 5 WRs in a non-PPR league (10 yards rush or recieve = 1pt, TD = 6pt)
Brown, A at Giants
Fitzgerald, L at Packers
Jackson, D at Saints
Smith, S at Redskins
Britt, K vs Bears
Gut says Fitz, Jackson and Smith based on matchups.
Last question is Bradshaw vs Steelers or Spiller vs Texans. Same scoring as WRs.
Thanks in advance.
Brent Celek or Dwayne Allen (with No Fleener)
Non-PPR Pick three.
Calvin, Julio, Dez, Britt, Decker, Josh Gordon, D. Moore
Right now I have Calvin, Gordon, and Moore penciled in just because of matchups. I just feel like these guys have the best chance to get TD’s this week. Tell me if I’m wrong. Thanks!
How’s it going Jeff,
Rank these 3 for the week: Ryan, Stafford, Vick.
I need 4 from the following (.5pt ppr). Andre Johnson, Megatron, Denarius Moore, Brandon Marshall, Hakeem Nicks, Kendall Wright. I leaning towards sitting Nicks because of matchups. and Wright.
Thanks,
Vich
PPR league, start 3 WRs
I have Fitzgerald, Roddy White, Miles Austin, Torrey Smith, and Denarius Moore.
I am leaning towards Fitz, White, and Austin due to long term consistency, but D-Mo has been playing so well recently. With Haden likely on Torrey I was probably keeping him on the bench. I am playing a team pretty equal to me and don’t think I need the homerun pick.
Thanks for the feedback
Joique Bell or Jonathan Dwyer
PPR- would you start Davone Bess, Golden Tate, Jermichael Finley, or Scott Chandler at flex?
or Andre Brown?
PPR- CJ Spiller or Mike Wallace?
you know a fantasy season is crazy when a RBBC RB is questioned with Wallace in a contract year…
Im 13-3 and I am averaging 209.0 points per game with a 32 ppg average margin of victory, with a 7 game lead in my division and a 72-16 all play record.
Spiller 16.94 points per game
Wallace 15.39 points per game
You are an idiot, Allen.
wow, i totally read your comment wrong. Im sorry, can one of the writers please delete my last comment? (and this one too?)
I am the idiot. Sorry, again.
Man, I was trying to say how the parity in the NFL is really screwing with fantasy football. No big deal, message board posts have no faces to display body language. I’ll leave the replies alone from now on, I just thought parity could be a good article breaking down ppg from even 5yrs ago.
You said nothing wrong. Reading is fundamental. Don’t let my idiocy discourage you from commenting in the future.
Sheard, Jabaal CLE DE vs BAL
Smith, Antonio HOU DE vs BUF (matchup pick over Sheard)
Wimbley, Kamerion TEN DE vs CHI (obvious v CHI)
1.5ppr
Josh Cooper Cle
Fred Jackson v Hou
I know it looks funny, but w/Spillar and that Hou D, Cooper 6-55 is 13pts
Pick 2 out of Megatron, Julio, and Wayne.
Standard Scoring: Paulsen or Tamme? Thanks.
PPR – DJax, Spiller, or R Bush?
No ppr.
I own Demarco Murray but it is looking like he is not going to go so I need an injury fill in.
Hillman
Ingram
Tanner
Sproles or Alfred Morris this week as a flex play in PPR?
Never mind, this problem took care of itself…….
I have Ryan Mathews, Ray Rice, and Alfred Morris. I know Mathews played already, just curious which two you guys would start. Thanks
need a bye week fill in at my flex:
non-ppr: cecil shorts or josh gordon
Hey Jeff,
Weekly Tight End question, I have managed to add Kyle Rudolph to my mix of Martellus and Jermichael, non ppr, I need to choose one and as always appreciate your insight! Thanks man!
That’s a tough one. It’s gonna be tough to win you’re matchup this week with those 3 options.
because I’m playing against you? get off this forum! lol… ignore that guy jeff!
thanks!
PPR league Alex Green, Ronnie Hillman or just stick with [empty slot]?
I could also slot in Broyles as a flex and sit Green/Hillman.
Palmer or Big Ben at QB
Brutal bye week for me…..Ridley & Gore out on bye, Murray and Mendenhall injured.
RB(choose one): Jacquizz Rodgers or Justin Forsett
WR/Flex(choose one): Heyward-Bey, Hartline, Shorts, Tony Gonzalez, Kendall Wright
Standard league: 1pt per 20yds rec/rush, 6pts per TD
TE Paulsen (vs CAR) or WR Streater (vs TB) for a PPR Flex spot?
Initially I’d say Paulsen, but Streater has a great matchup against a depleted Bucs secondary…
PPR pick 2 of 3. Harvin, Cruz, or Julio
And pick 2 of 4 Doug Martin, Alfred Morris, Pierre Thomas, or Rashad Jennings
Thanks!
Which WR do I play this week ,Mike Williams or Cecil Shorts ???
Non PPR
Picked up Redman. Him or F. Jackson?
PPR league, already played Matthews at RB and will play ABrown and Moore at WR but need help with these decisions:
Pick 2RB:JStew, Bradshaw, PThomas
Pick 1WR: G Little, Hartline, Bess, Jenkins, Driver
Another question for you Jeff,
Pick 4 – only 1 RB as my RB1 is Arian.
Bradshaw, J. Stew, Randall Cobb, Percy H, Steve Smith-CAR, Desean Jackson
Much appreciated,
Vich
R.Cobb, D.Moore, M.Wallace, or J.Maclin? Must start 2 of them.
As crazy as I feel asking this….Eli or Freeman?
Pierre Thomas or Titus Young in a ppr league?
Cam or Big Ben?
Ineed a flex defense either aj hawk, pat angerer, or a bethea(indy db).
Also 1 offensive flex either pierre Thomas, alex green, or d heyward bay.
Thanks
