oG1KeNoBi Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 This little tidbit on the Ravens defense really puts things in perspective. I've actually already tried to trade Fournette bc I knew after this week, his stock will drop. My other option is Joe Mixon, who many predict will have the game that sets him apart as the main RB in CIN, mainly bc of his new offensive coordinator. Note: not a "break out game", but one that focuses on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jbroadway Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 With the new coordinator I think Mixon will get plenty of opportunities. On top of that he isn't going up against Baltimore defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simms999 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Id have to go w Fournette due to known volume. Mixon could give you a breakout game but he could also give you what he has done so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chump0 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I have Fournette. I am forced to play him though. Hopefully he will get a goal line TD. Definitely have to start him though due to volume. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B5TACKIN Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I would say you should bench Fournette. I have been a fan of the jags for 20+ years and typically after a bad loss (Titans last week) they have not been a good rebounding team, especially a Bortles led team. This Ravens D is the real deal and should be a low scoring affair, unless defenses put some points on the board. With Bortles inability to move the ball 10+ yards, 8 men in the box to stop Fournette is likely. Also starting left tackle Cam Robinson has banged up shoulder and is questionable, which is where Suggs will come from and our depth is not great at tackle. I actually think Perine will get a big workload and I would lean towards him, especially at home in a primetime matchup. Bengals have yet to score a TD and will be tough to do so this week. I think Green will have a big game but unless Mixon gets dump down passes, he may not be a factor. Perine / Mixon may turn out about the same with point output. I don't think you can go wrong with either That is my 2 cents but in the world of fantasy, everything is a mystery. 😀 Good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watt's Up Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I would run with Fournette, mostly based on volume and talent. Baltimore D is real and will make it tough, but he's the only guy here who you know will get the work. I like Mixon but I don't like rolling the dice on what could be a breakout game while someone you know is in for 20 touches and goal line carries is on the bench (even if Jacksonville doesn't make it to the goal line). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starkers Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Mixon and Perine are you only options and I think the Raider/Redskin game will be an aerial shootout with the main beneficiary. So I would take the risk on Mixon. Help with mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basket018 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I would roll with Fournette. Just cause of the volume alone and goal line carries. Not sure what your gonna get with Mixon. Could only get 5 carries or 15. Hard to trust the what ifs Help with mine please 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylcook13 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Take Fournette and the volume unless you feel like you need to roll the dice this week and are overmatched. Like if you went against Gurley and Watkins already 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oG1KeNoBi Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Ooook. So now Kelley isn't expected to even play let alonebe on a snap count. Instead of Mixon, should I bench Fournette for Samaje Perine vs OAK? Slightly time sensitive as the Fournette plays in 6 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oG1KeNoBi Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Thanks for all those who told me to go with Fournette. He exceeded his projections and my expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
