Dcat Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Non PPR league. Playoffs if I win. Out if I lose. 1. Team defense: Carolina (on roster) @ New Orleans or I can pick up either Buffalo or Tampa Bay (who play each other in Tampa) 2. Flex: Sproles, Blount, Ellington or Golden Tate? 3. TE: Heath Miller or Jordan Reed (assuming he is active). I have Miller penciled in until the inactive report is published. But even if Reed is active, can he be trusted?

borge007 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 PPR-Mendenhall , Ivory, or Sproles. Need 2. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Made it through first round of playoffs. Going against top seed (12-0) this week. Your advice is much appreciated. QBs: Philip Rivers or Carson Palmer (elbow) Also available Ryan Fitzpatrick (ww) and Matt Ryan (I dropped for Palmer) RBs: Chris Johnson, Bobby Rainey, Shane Vereen, Fred Jackson (Need 2 and/or 1 FLEX) WRs: Andre Johnson (locked, in lineup) Josh Gordon Dez Bryant (Need 1 and/or 1 FLEX) DEF: Seattle or Oakland K: Suisham or Succop Non-PPR, 1 QB, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 1 FLEX, 1 K, 1 DEF Thanks! At QB It has took me everything I got inside me not to start Palmer over Romo. if I had Rivers against that tough giant defense I would go Palmer over him. the Giants have gave up 204 yards or less in 5 of their last 6 games. and the 1 time they did not was when the other team was throwing trying to get back into the game. The only thing that worries me about Palmer is he is more likley to be knocked out the game because of his age and already hurt self. I would still take that chance as he has had 3 straight 300 yard games and 5 straight 2 TD games and has a matchup that dictates he keeps those streaks alive. being you are going against a 12-0 team you probably need to pull some rabbit's out of your hat anyways. At RB it would matter if it is a PPR league or not. if it is a PPR league I would go wth Vereen as he is safe(averaging 7 catches over last 3 games). and then go Chris Johnson (although I like Rainey near as much). If its a standard league I would go with Johnson and Rainey. both got good matchups as Johnson against the Broncos( 6 straight weeks of 100 yards rushing they have given up) and Rainey has the Bills (3 strsight weeks of 130 or more yards rushing.). plus I expect both to be involved in the passing game. At WR you got to put Gordon at number 2. having 498 yards in 2 games( plus a 3rd 125 yard before that) it is impossible to bench him to me. At Flex you gotta put in Dez. his upside i to much to sit in a big game plus 16 catches in his last 2 games says he will get the targets. At Def I am all over Seattle. I am using the Raiders in 2 leagues this week but I think they are overranked on all the sites. with what seems like all the bad teams playing each other and all the good teams playing each other the defenses have alot of Parity this week. that is what makes Oakland(and the team they are playing the Jets) both options this week. but you have a real defense playing against a QB that is just itching to do dumb things. I start Seattle over any other defense this week. At kicker I would go with Suisham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Hey now. It's showtime. Got a flex issue in a PPR. Here are my options: D.Sproles M.Crabtree T.Rich L.Blount T. Austin D.Baldwin and N.Burleson are both available. Thoughts? I think Sproles resumes his PPR role of last year after last week. I believe Brees will go back to what made the offense click last year. I think that i good for Sproles and Colston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Thanks HK, Pick 3: Marshawn Lynch, K Moreno, Christ Johnson, Zac Stacy and Gio Bernard. Thanks. What a tough week for Lynch to be playing the Niners. You gotta put Moreno in. I cannot make myself bench Lynch so he would be 2. 3rd I go Chris Johnson. the Cards have been tough on RB's although with his bulk Stacy could be procuctive but I trut the other 3 more.

HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 PPR and Need Two F Jackson J Reed L Green Andre Holmes J Cook Ouch. Well Fred Jackson is definately 1. Reed is not playing. I think I would go with Holmes. although we still don't know if Moore is playing or not( I would start him anyways) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even if Reed is active, can he be trusted? 1. if those were my options I would roll with Carolina. 2.I would go Sproles as I think he becomes a focal point of the offense again. 3.Reed is out. even if he was not I would of went Miller. as you said he cannot be trusted.

HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 PPR-Mendenhall , Ivory, or Sproles. Need 2. Thanks For me Sproles is the easy 1. then I go Ivory since Ellington is back to take important touches from Mendenall who already does not have much of a ceiling.

hezagenius Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 0.5 PPR Any reason to replace any of my starters with someone on my bench? We start RB, WR, and 3 flex. Starters: RB: AP @ BAL WR: Marshall v DAL Flex1: Lacy v ATL Flex2: Andre Brown @ SD Flex3: Moreno v TEN Bench: Woodhead v NYG Decker v TEN SJax @ GB Boldin v SEA Joique Bell @ PHI Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdub1988 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Big playoff game today. Who do I start: Bobby Rainey, Riley Cooper, Rashard Jennings, or Stevan Ridley? Pretty sure it's mainly between Rainey and Cooper. It's a PPR league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 10 team PPR. Flex question. Edelman, Gio, or R.White? As always, thank you very much for your help this season! Brother Zeus I think Roddie White is gonna become the new target machine for Atlanta this week. I would roll with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fig19 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 RG3, Dalton, or Manuel?? It's snowing in DC and Cincinnati, but they say it won't effect the game too much. Not sure who to go with, having QB issues all season and just squeaked into the playoffs! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetdaddyjones Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Any thoughts on my lineup? This is the 1st round of the playoffs. League scoring is .1 per yard rushing/ receiving (2 point bonus per 100 yards), 6 per TD, .5 per reception for all positions. Current lineup: QB: P. Manning vs. TEN WR: C. Johnson @ PHI WR: L. Fitzgerald vs. STL RB: M. Forte vs. DAL RB: Z. Stacy @ ARI FLEX: B. Rainey vs. BUF TE: V. Davis vs. SEA K: G. Hartley vs. CAR DL: C. Jordan vs. CAR LB: V. Burfict vs. IND DB: E. Weddle vs. NYG I could get Glennon or Palmer off the waiver wire. The weather in Denver scares me, but I don't see how I could bench Manning. My other question involves RB2 and FLEX. My other options are the following: RB: P. Thomas vs. CAR M. Bush vs. DAL (not really an option, just a handcuff for Forte) WR: R. Cooper vs. DET M. Crabtree vs. SEA Are Stacy and Rainey my best options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighKite Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 0.5 PPR Any reason to replace any of my starters with someone on my bench? We start RB, WR, and 3 flex. Starters: RB: AP @ BAL WR: Marshall v DAL Flex1: Lacy v ATL Flex2: Andre Brown @ SD Flex3: Moreno v TEN Bench: Woodhead v NYG Decker v TEN SJax @ GB Boldin v SEA Joique Bell @ PHI Thanks I might start Steven Jackson myself over Brown myself. but I would understand if you had hesitance as Brown is solid too. I just expect a prtty nice game from Jackson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who to go with, having QB issues all season and just squeaked into the playoffs! Thanks! Funny you brought up Manuel as I was looking at him myself this morning and not many have brought him up but I think he has a solid game. Dalton scares me to death with his 270 yards passing in the last 2 games and his low attempt count as been more scary. and now they got a great matchup where they should run a ton again. When it comes down to it I think you gotta go Griffin. he has a good matchup. crazy upside and K.C. has gave up around a 1000 yards in their last 3. I know he is scary but all 3 are. none have the upside of him. he can win you the week almost by himself if things went right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacy has a tough matchup but with all the touches he is gonna get you gotta start him and I think Rainey has a fine game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fig19 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Haha I was afraid you would say Griffin, but I agree he has the most upside and let's be honest here, my options suck! I'm gong to roll with RG3, thanks for the advice as usual! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blaw23 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 PPR League, I can start any two of Zac Stacy Ray Rice Chris Ivory Steven Jackson I am leaning towards Jackson and Stacy. I have started Rice all year and he has killed me pretty much all year. Although he does have a much easier matchup than Stacy. Any help would be appreciated.

I know it is punishig to hear as a Rice owner but I think he does well today(I know you been hearing that). I would go with him and Jackson though. would it not be nice if they both came through like you hoped when you got them when it matters so much? and they got matchups.
