DanTheMan_5 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Stafford Forte Cobb Roddy White Watkins I'm debating even trying to fill out my roster. Sadly most of my bench is on bye too. I would need to drop some pretty decent players just to lose by less this week, but I don't want to desparage the integrity of the league, so I guess I'll give it the 'ol college try.

Gopher Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Yeah, I'm noticing it this week as well. Lots of GB, ATL, and CHI on several of my teams. On the other hand, in the leagues where I don't have Week 9 byes, my players appear to be higher in the weekly rankings/projections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan_5 Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 What makes it worse, the guy I am playing (2 leagues) has NOBODY on bye. My chances are quite slim. Next week won't be much better. Got A. Foster in both leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 In one league, I'm playing one of the better teams and I'm without Cutler (will need RG3 to come back or Cousins overtake McCoy who just beat the Cowboys). And Forte. And Jeffery, Tate, and White at WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn5033 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 In my league we have a 10$ penalty for playing guys on bye. That being said it is totally the managers choice, I know me personally I would rather pay the fine than drop a player that I don't want to lose. The only reason I do that is to keep guys from losing interest once they are out of contention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballjoe Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) 16 team league and my 3 recivers are on bye: Jordy, Cobb and Julio.

stevegrab Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Was looking worse earlier in the season, when I still had Gould, was expecting I'd play Megatron every week and also had Cutler in case Rivers had a bad matchup. Since then I swapped Parkey for Gould, Megatron has been out and on the bench for a few weeks and I don't see much chance I'd start Cutler except week 10 when Rivers has his bye. 3 of my crappy 6 RBs are on bye (Brown, Greene, Starks) so the other scrubs and WW darlings get to fill the holes.

Same situation here. Its a dynasty league so tough to drop a guy just to fill a bye week but I want to field a good line up. Thankfully I had a few duds to drop On bye Jordy Marshall Bennett Reggie Bush Kendall wright ( i know hes no stud but at least a warm body I could have started ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud29 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 In my local: Cutler Forte Orton Bills D BLNY: Marshall Watkins Adams The actual number of byes for me isn't too bad, the problem is that several are in the same position, so I'm forced to dig deep. Replacing 3 WRs in one league and 2 QBs in another will be rough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustOfBeenDrunk Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Like McDonald's .... I'm loving it ! I took such a big hit week-4 with six of my starters on bye ,, but I'm bye free now except Golden Tate this week & Foster next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'm trying to figure out what to do about Gostkowski's bye next week. This why I hate having kickers in fantasy. Do I drop the #1 kicker or do I drop a viable flex option like Rueben Randle. I think I am just going to eat a zero at the position, which will likely generate some message board bitching.

Wpob Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Rodgers Cobb Jones Jeffrey Thankfully, I am 7-0-1. I am planning for a loss so I am going some long shots this week in hopes of catching lightning in a bottle with Cooks, Moncrief, Cadet and Vereen.

Swashbucklers Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I have the same issue with Cobb and Jones on bye in a must win game. Luckily, my opponent has Stafford, Marshall, and Watkins on bye as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 In my main, I lose Cutler Forte Cobb Gould Bills D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 My opponent is without Julio and Nelson, his other top WR is AJ Green who may be out again. And he has no other WR on his bench. That may give me a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
