Lineup Advice: Week Three

Jeff Haverlack Posted On September 19, 2017

*** Please read this introduction fully BEFORE posting your question! ***

To our knowledge, DLF is the only fantasy site that answers your specific lineup questions all seventeen weeks of the NFL regular season and into the post season as well. It’s just another feature we offer our valued premium subscribers.

Our lineup advice isn’t an overly-simplified one-dimensional list of players each week which doesn’t account for your own individual situation, changing player variables or your match-up. Every week, each question is given our full attention with respect to match-up, weather and trends in combination with your unique circumstances to render a decision as if it was our own team. That’s the commitment that we make to each of you and what you hopefully have come to expect from DLF. We’ve been performing this service for years and despite our continued Premium subscriber growth, we’re not stopping now.

If you’d like a second opinion on your lineup for the week, simply comment to this post with your question. We’ll answer every single lineup question submitted in a timely fashion as an exclusive service only for our Premium subscribers.

Before submitting a question, please take note of the following items which will help us help you:

DLF continues to grow and our weekly lineup advice is very popular. Our goal is to aid in your decision making, not manage your roster. Please don’t post each position from EVERY one of your teams. The fewer the questions, the more thorough our research can be. Because of the growth we’ve seen this past year, I ask that you please be very mindful of this request. Quality lineup advice means taking time with each one so please help us out in this area.
Scoring System – Let us know if your league is PPR, non-PPR or if there are any unusual scoring rules that would affect our advice. “Standard” scoring often means different things to different owners.
We always like to see what YOU are thinking on your question(s) first. On those “toss-up” or “coin-flip” plays, as we call them, knowing which way you are leaning helps us.
Go easy on us! We strongly encourage each coach to make their own decision(s) but we’re here to help as much as possible. We pride ourselves on our accuracy and research, but our crystal balls aren’t perfect.
If you wait until game day to ask your question, we may not get to you. Be sure to register your question as early as possible.
If you respond to one of our comments, it’s usually best to do so as a brand new comment so it’s sure to be seen! Responses can get lost or missed as the string grows.

Good luck this season!

Let’s get to it!

Week 3

The brutal year continues! And, sometimes, that goes for lineup advice as well.

Overall, I’ve been relatively happy with my advice but it’s a snake pit each week and I’ve been stepping on tails rather than heads time and again. You can’t have thin skin and offer lineup advice, hits and misses are a package deal. Early in the season is, also, the most difficult time as roles and trends have yet to be established. All the stats and crystal balls sometimes just can’t match the ol’ gut feeling if you know what I mean. Every week will have its JJ Nelson’s and Buck Allen’s. We adjust and move on.

This week wasn’t just brutal for bell-cow players like Jordan Howard, DeMarco Murray or Ezekiel Elliott. The injury bug bit a few top names as well, such as Greg Olsen, Rob Kelley and Rob Gronkowski. After such a rough start to the season, after a particularly rough pre-season, it’s anyone’s guess as to what’s to come. The good news is that two weeks gives us at least some idea what to expect going forward and there’s enough snaps now to steer clear of at least a few landmines.

I’ll be digging deeper and doing more research for all of you again to see if we can increase overall effectiveness and avoid problem areas.

Good luck to all, especially you our Premium members!
