licc85 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) For some reason, Westbrook is ranked pretty low by all the so-called "experts," even though he's basically become the #1 option for a resurgent Bortles against one of the worst passing defenses in the league (Houston, ranked 27th against WRs). I have Westbrook in both of my 0.5 PPR leagues, and I want to start him, even though he's ranked way below some of my other options. In one league, I'm thinking about putting him in over Jamison Crowder, who had 1 blow up game and has been terrible the entire rest of the season (yet he's ranked in the top 20 by just about everyone). I also have Chris Hogan in this league, but after his poor game vs. the Dolphins, I'm also hesitant to start him. In my other league, it's a much closer call. It's between Westbrook and Stefon Diggs. Diggs actually got 10 targets last game, but he's up against the Bengals and their #3 ranked passing D against WRs. Do I go with my gut or do what the "experts" recommend?

tdybaz Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Definitely go with your gut. I've been playing Dede for a few weeks now (I picked him up the week before he came back off of IR). The kid was (I think) 5th in the Heisman voting, he is ridiculously skilled, just a knucklehead off the field. He and Bortles (who I also picked up to play these last two weeks) are forming a connection, so ride it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I think hurns May have a chance to play this weekend ? If so that doesn’t help. I would go diggs for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonster Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Westbrook is a decent choice. I agree he and Diggs are tough choice. I would play Westbrook over Crowder and Hogan for sure. Diggs is a tough one. I think I may still go Diggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottleWalk Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Well call me insane, but I have Diggs, Landry, and Mike Evans and I'm playing Dede over all three of them. And I'm ready to stand by that decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerlane Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I just picked up Westbrook off the WW Andy need to decide whether I should start him over Hogan and Diggs in my flex spot. Tough decision, but I may roll with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
