Fantasy Football 2011: Jumping the Gun

[Tweek]

I would go with Colston as well even though Valsik is right Brees spreads the ball but Colston is the one person on that team that puts up consistent #s. The others like Moore/Meachem/Henderson are where it gets tricky they can each have 1 good week that will trick you into thinking they're a solid play but mostly they just disappoint.


Question, is everyone sitting all their IND WRs this week? Wayne/Collie/Garcon? My options suck for replacing Collie at the moment.

[Headspace]

I'm not sitting my IND WR, because I don't have any.

I'm sitting on 3 of the top 5 fantasy WRs this week. Shit son.

Spoiler: show

However, I am in a pickle between starting SJax, Greene, and Benson, OR BERNARD SCOTT

lol, WRs are over rated (in non-PPR leagues) =P

How did you get so many of the top though? You in a 12-man?


Jackson and Greene

davone bess (vs. NE) vs. sydney rice (@SF)

Sydney Rice has Tavaris Jackson throwing to him; he'll be utterly worthless until Whitehurst starts playing, in which case he'll just be completely worthless. Go with Bess.

I'm a Seahawk fan, so I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt I am.

that was my original thought, but he still had some TD passes from jackson last year. I really do think rice is a good enough jump ball receiver. meh, I'll probably root against my linebackers and go bess

Yeah I think it was a twelve man league. I had the eight pick, and Rodgers was already gone, so I went Fitz and Calvin with my first two picks. Then picked up SJax and Felix Jones.

I knew olroy has a hard on for Felix, and traded him Felix Jones and Jeremy Maclin for Greene and Hakeem Nicks.

There was a few pages of discussion on how i dogged him, but he wanted Felix and I wanted Nicks.

It's also PPR

[Chun Liroy]

Greene and Sjax nigga, Cowboys def. sucks still.

[Headspace]

Well, with Dalton, the Bengals are gonna run that shit all day. But there's also Phil Taylor from Baylor.

I'm more on the fence about whether to start Stafford (along with Calvin) against Tampa Bay or Freeman against Detroit.

nice, lol a slight trade rape



i wanted AR as my first pick in 2 leagues but only got a chance to nab him in one

not bad. latest is Foster will be in. You got a nice team looks like a 10man or less i'm guessing.

You're going to learn so much about other teams and players you used to not give a shit about.. oh also be prepared to get fucking hooked on fantasy

[Penthesilea]

QB - Freeman
RB1 - AD
RB2 - Forte
FLEX - ???
WR - Mike Wallace
WR - Dez Bryant
TE - Gronk
DEF - SD
K - Gostkowski

Flex is my problem area. I have a lot of upside players but not sure who to play

Julio Jones, ATL @ CHI
Mark Ingram, NO @ GB
Daniel Thomas, NE @ MIA
Plaxico Burress, DAL @ NYJ
DeMarco Murray, DAL @NYJ
Steve Breaston, BUF @ KC

Right now I have J. Jones in there, but thinking of playing Plax or Ingram. Any hints?

[Demosthenes11]

my rule of thumb: always play a starting RB in flex if i have the option. always

[Penthesilea]

K, but Ingram will be by committee with P.Thomas right? and D. Thomas has Bush in front of him.

I'm just thinking about how laughable Dallas's 2ndary is that Plax might get some red zone targets. It's a gamble I know.

[Valisk]

Plax. 2 of Dallas' starting CBs will be out by the start of the 2nd quarter. Not that them being in makes any difference.

[Tweek]

my rule of thumb: always play a starting RB in flex if i have the option. always

I do the same, but I've never played PPR and I don't know how much of a difference it makes.

Was it this thread someone showed that something like 11 RBs last year all out scored the best WR in fantasy points?

[Cail]

Thing that drives me nuts is what im dealing with tonight...have colston starting against GB, and have GB DEF...i hate that so much

[Demosthenes11]

I'm not sold on julio because of the dropsies and WRs typically don't start out quickly in their rookie season on 4 weeks of prep. plax has sanchez throwing to him and we have no idea how good he will be

ingram looked great in the preseason and is expected to carry the majority of the rushes in NO. I expect him to have a 1100/250/10TD year
