Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Here's mine: 1) Had a gut feeling about Robbie Anderson so I plucked him from the ww and put him in my lineup. 5 minutes before kickoff I take him out. Turn on the TV right when he's crossing the goal line. I mean the exact second. 2) Did the same with Meredith and Ryan Matthews today 10 minutes before kickoff. They scored 42 combined. Replacements scored 10. Three last minute decisions cost me 60 points. How I lucked out: Ty Montgomery and Shady MCCoy. Your story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmholtz_Watson Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Opposite for me. I had ware in all week and picked up Montgomery to replace him about an hour before kick off. I dropped Tyrod Taylor for him, whom I was seriously considering playing over Brees lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Great moves H-W and congratulations! I thought Montgomery would have a good game but damn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgpound23 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) I dropped Justin Tucker for McManus 5 minutes before kickoff because of high winds in Baltimore. The kickers could cost me a spot in the 'Ship...lol. Oh and I benched Montgomery in my flex for Amari cooper. That's probably a bigger deal.

Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Oh man is that painful. I went back and forth on Montgomery too. When you say "could cost you" what do you need? I'll pull for you. I played Cooper too but got lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgpound23 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I know man. And I'm up 19 while still facing Evans tonight. My opponent has Rob Kelly and Hopkins tomorrow while I have Cousins. PPR league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 So Evans is at about 10 which puts you up 9 with Cousins vs. Kelly + Hopkins. I think Cousins is worth at least 20 MINIMUM. Would give you a 29 pt. lead vs. Hopkins and Kelly. I think Cousins will get more. I'm pulling for you. Imagine how good it will feel when you win after benching Montgomery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyjets18 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) I removed falcons def for vikings. Turned out vikings gave me -4 points while falcons would have given me 10. I also took out Jermey Hill for Latavius Murray which wasn't too bad. One move that paid of was picking up Inman and starting him over Mitchell. Thankfully almost everyone on my oppent team had a bad week and he only scored 56 points. He was number 1 seed so I don't feel too bad. Hopefully I get Julio Jones back for the championship next week so I don't have to find a new wr1 again.

Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Congrats. I missed Julio too. Hope he returns. Adams, Cooper and Diggs got me about 10 points total. Thanks for McCoy and Montgomery and my opponent loading up on Patriots and starting AP. Good luck next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davesta23 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I too played cooper and survived. Now the biggest question is do I roll the dice again on him in the ship? Fool me once.. Shame on you. Fool me twice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 That's going to be a tough call. It seems like Carr is falling in love with slot receivers lately. That, combined with their running game hurts Cooper's production. I wish they'd move him around more or run more slants. Too talented to run fly patterns all day. Maybe the Colts game will be a shootout. Or maybe I'm just a sucker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anismith Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 In one league I had both Robby Anderson and Cooks on my bench for Sammy Watkins. In that league I missed but was so close to sneaking by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildTurkey Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I picked up Montgomery! Hooray! I just couldn't bring myself to bench Sammy Watkins for him, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Good topic! I was worried about needing every single point against a tough opponent and was worried too about Lavonte David being either a scratch or limited on SNF. I would have had no other options for SNF or MNF, so I called up Edwin Jackson from the Colts. He ended up with 13 points (solid), but David not only played but outscored him (18 points). I'm up a boatload with him only having Donte Whitner yet to go, so it doesn't appear that it'll matter much. But yeah, yesterday was probably the most I've ever gone back and forth on decisions like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Darin, remember what I told you - small white pills for mood, big red ones for sleepy bye. It gets bet better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterofthemidway Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Have a feeling a lot of people are kicking themselves over Montgomery. I had him in/out/in. Anismith - the Cooks/Anderson thing sucks. Cooks is silent for a stretch of games then goes off vs. a good pass D. Such is FF. Sorry you didn't sneak by. You can always break something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aruss Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I dropped Russell Wilson last week and plugged Trevor Siemian v. Patriots. Somehow managed to survive. Did not deserve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsterofthemidway Posted December 23, 2016 Author Share Posted December 23, 2016 Ha, I was going to plug in Semian but my son talked me out of it. I thought he'd have a good game! Congrats on moving on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
