IrishPride Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Just wondering? Not in any of my leagues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaDynasty Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah the commish in my league started Eli and Donnel. Told him he needs to start charging players to be in his lineup cuz any scrubs he starts BLOWS UP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grey Pilgrim Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) I am also in a league where an owner started Eli and Donnell. I think he is winning 55-0 about this time. Ouch, I'm glad I played that owner last week. He sat R. Wilson this week for Eli. That takes some nerve I think. Oops....thank you for the clarification about Wilson's bye week, Irish....

rattsass Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 No, but they will next week when he turns back into a pumpkin... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphashado Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Yup, a guy in my 12 team league started both of them. Sick. Eli will never do this again. This is why fantasy football is 50% luck. You can suck at poker and still get dealt 4 aces. Edited September 26, 2014 by Alphashado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsfan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Really? He has 9 TD's in the last 3 games. He played okay against Zona and really well against Houston last week. Now great against Washington. And his next 4 games are Atlanta, at Philly, at Dallas, bye, Indy. So 4 D's that are all well below average. I don't see why he won't be a borderline top 10 option in all of those games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electricrelish Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yes, I started Eli in 2 leagues. Too bad I sat Larry Donnell for Jimmy Graham. I'm also playing against Eli in one league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlanta Cracker Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I started him in one league with Peyton on bye. Sometimes its nice to have luck on your side! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why he won't be a borderline top 10 option in all of those games. Pick him up then and rely on him. See if he comes through when you need him to. Most of us have been there and done that and will never do it again. Eli is the model of inconcistancy. Trust him at your own peril. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsfan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the comments. Being a Giants fan I don't know much about Eli...LOL. All I did was state some facts. 9 TD's in last 3 games. Okay against Zona, very good against the Texans, great tonight. Great schedule next 4 games. Again not saying he is a stud. Not saying he will be top 5. I bet he even throws a stinker in there. But on paper he should be a borderline top 10 guy in those 4 games IMO.

Cheddar Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Started him in 2 leagues that I have Peyton, and in a Double QB league where I drafted my QB's after everyone else already had 2. I had Romo, traded him for niles davis, and picked up Eli this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why he won't be a borderline top 10 option in all of those games. I won't be picking him up, but I think this point of view has legs. Granted the Washington defense is atrocious but Philly's is bad and Atlanta and Dallas are suspect. Short-term schedule is favorable especially if the Giants continue to slowly get comfortable in this offense. If I had QB issues I'd give Eli a look.

Wolverines Fan Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 A guy in one of my BoTH leagues started Eli. He had Peyton and Dalton both on a bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Muto Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My FFPC $1,700 main event I had Peyton on a bye I noticed last night someone had dropped Eli and I threw a $3 bid on him to drop Flacco...36 pts later I thank my lucky stars.

bud29 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 A guy in my local started him, glad I'm not playing him this week. I have my own problems though, starting Cousins and going against Donnell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joebirds55 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Peyton owner started both him and donnell....Thabkfully I'm not playing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin_Akie Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Wouldn't surprise me, even with his troubles the Redskins secondary was abysmal on Sunday against the Eagles so the potential was there for a decent score. Not many necessarily expected this Im guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Croe Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Started Eli and Donnell with Peyton out this week. 74 points total. The guy I'm playing is not happy Edited September 26, 2014 by Croe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Rugby Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I stared him in my 2 QB league. I agree, this will not be a typical performace from him but his schedule is nice as there appears to be no defense in that division. I see him as a mid-range QB2 for the remainder of the year.
