Thank you everyone for your thoughts. I'm just gonna ride Howard and or Farrow/Ingram
Start Brady.. the Denver offense is hanging the Defense out to dry more often since they can't develop a run game to save their lives
Start Matt Ryan
KC just shut down one of the best offenses in the league in Oakland.. I would not start Marcus after making Carr look like garbage (however I would start Murray because the chiefs are more vulnerable to the run after that injury on DJ.)

Ryan is playing San Fran Fanatic
Start Matt Ryan

So Alshon is back against the Packers..
I shouldn't throw him in the lineup right?

Pretty volatile situation. Huge ceiling, really low floor. If you HAD to start him in your line up, I'd replace Sammy.
But nah, I wouldn't do it for now.

Nah that's in my other 16 team GAF league.
I'm on a bye in my 12 team GAF league since I'm the 1st seed with Sammy, Jordy, and A-Rob..
My WRs are in my 16 team league are..
Antonio, Hill, Gabriel, J.J Nelson, Tyler Boyd, and Alshon. (A lot I know.. I traded for Latavius and Coleman with Hilton before.. I stockpiled players to trade them and... it didn't happen)
I have Tevin Coleman in my Flex right now because I can't not resist him against the 49rs while starting Gore and Latavius Murray for my RBs.
So I got to pick three WRs.. it's a PPR league
I guess I'm riding Antonio, Hill, and Gabriel again?

Thanks Floy.. I'm going up against Aaron Rodgers so I need all the points I can get. But on the positive side I have Jordy.
FloydtheFathead
Member
That will undercut your opponent a bit...
But I expect Matt to have an excellent game and Gabriel to get 8 points. The 9rs are probably the worst team in the league (and yes I think they just might be worse than Cleveland in all seriousness)

So what you're saying is that I'm in good shape trotting out both Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman against them this weekend in my semi-final matchup?
(Have the Bills defense locked and loaded at home against Cleveland so I'm not leaving them out.)
FloydtheFathead
Member
Yes.. I would personally start both if I were you Uber.. Freeman should meet his projection and Coleman should make it or come close to it since he's a solid running back even with a few touches since as bad as San Fran is in the air.. and they are really bad..
They are even worse on the ground. That's that Jim O'Neil defense special. (Seriously I don't understand how Chip hasn't fired him and just pick a guy from the stands... he's that bad.)

Kirk's been going deep with DJax the last couple of games if you want to take a gamble.

playing the bell/zeke/gordon owner this week
he had higher waiver priority than I did and he didn't claim farrow but picked up ty montgomery instead(???)
I'm not planning on starting farrow since I know farrow =/= gordon. Depending on how he's used this week and if I make it to next week, might flex him against the Browns.
I don't have a good feeling about this week though

Honestly I think your lineup is the best that it can be looking at it right now.
I don't think I'd change anything..

Tyler Gabriel worth a pick up gamble for my flex?
Right now my choices on my team are
Gurley
DeVonte Adams
Golden Tate
Allen Hurns

Rawls if anything. But if you don't have a better option at TE, Graham is fine. Rams are terrible.
Personally think Adams will have the better day but Gabriel would be better than the other options.
On my bench I have Witten, Kelvin B, Alshon, and Rishard Matthews as possible replacements for Graham. Jimmy G is only projected for 12pts in my league and would be easy to replace but, as you said, the Rams are terrible and it could be a good game for him. Or Thursday night fuckball will strike. Damn playoffs make these small decisions tough.

Too many hard choices. Ajayi or Dougie Martin

At this point I would go for the go big or go home play - Ajayi.

Managed to pick up Bills defense somehow. Will be playing them over the Broncos. I mean they'll be fine with points from sacks but tom Brady could just decide to go to another level to prove a point lol

Like I was saying, my league ended with no playoffs
Final tally
Record: 6-7 7th
PF:1746.6 1st + 112
PA: 1695.4 1st + 95
AVG PF:134.4 1st + 13
AVG PA:130.4 1st + 12
DIF: +3.9 7th
Statistically speaking, this must have been the most absolute bullshit season of all time.
*the guy who won the league had 360 less points scored against him than I did.
Theres no way anyone has ever fielded that kickass of a team before and not just lost a few games, but wasnt even in the same stratosphere of the top teams the way that I did.

My active fantasy lineup heading into the Week 15 semi-finals (0.5 PPR)...
QB - Derek Carr
WR - Odell Beckham Jr.
WR - Tyrell Williams
WR/TE - Adam Thielen
RB - Devonta Freeman
RB - Tevin Coleman
TE - Greg Olsen
K - Sebastian Janikowski
DEF/ST - Baltimore Ravens
My bench...
WR - A.J. Green
WR - Robby Anderson
RB - Kenneth Farrow
RB - Ronnie Hillman
DEF/ST - New York Giants
My opponent's lineup...
QB - Kirk Cousins
WR - Dez Bryant
WR - Mike Wallace
WR/TE - Steve Smith Sr.
RB - LeSean McCoy
RB - Isaiah Crowell
TE - Zach Ertz
K - Kai Forbath
DEF/ST - Green Bay Packers
His bench...
WR - Ted Ginn Jr.
WR - Cole Beasley
RB - Rashad Jennings
RB - James White
TE - Dennis Pitta
There are only table scraps kicking around on the waiver wire so this is pretty much how this matchup is going to shake out. I'll have something to think about if A.J. Green makes a run at playing this weekend but I'm hoping he focuses on getting healthy for Week 16 against the Texans instead.

This was my first year doing fantasy so I had no idea what the hell I was doing.
Added Brandin Cooks to my do not draft list. It's been frustrating the whole season on trying to decide which games to start him and which to not. He's very talented and very fast, but he just doesn't get enough targets(too many mouths to feed in the saints)

Thanks.
My lineup and my opponent coming in Tonight. I'm Team A, std league, non ppr.
Team A vs Team B
Brady QB Brees
Powell RB Freeman
Zeke RB Hyde
J Nelson WR Beckham
Tate WR Crowder
Brate TE Graham
JStew Flex Baldwin
Tucker K McManus
SEA DEF TB
Bench: Walker(TE), D.Jackson(WR), Martin(RB), Jeffery (WR), Morris (RB), Mitchell(WR)
I have the SEA DEF, I hope it's a repeat of what ATL did against the RAMS. If Graham and/or Baldwin go off tonight, I might consider taking a chance on Jeffery or Jackson in replacing Tate for Boom potential.
UberTag

This seems to be more of a Drew Brees thing than anything else. The same boom-or-bust tendencies were exhibited by Marques Colston when he was the Saints top wide receiver. In another offensive scheme with a different QB, I suspect Cooks would put up consistent numbers.
PandaPandaPanda
Member
I don't disagree with that. Brees (while he's a great QB and all) is also on my do not draft list too. I'm thankful I have depth at WR (Brown, Hilton and Watkins who i'll be starting this week.
Also read that Bell has gotten injured each time in the last two years they've played the Bengals. Might pick up Deangelo as just a lottery ticket but would probably have to Drop Winston or Chargers Defense for him-ugh.
I'm going to take a gamble and start Graham and Rawls tonight. I hate starting two players on Thursday but the match-up has high potential gains for both players. Combined they are projected for 24pts. Going to hope for the best tonight and let these two lead me to a championship birth for next week.

I picked up Gabriel in our league..lol
Need one
Gore
Ware or
RKelley
First I want to roll with Ware but my boys(Titans) are kinda tough on the Run
FloydtheFathead
Member
Tough choices... I guess Gore.. Minny is banged up and Tennessee might show up and the Carolina run d is decent.
Rad Shadow
Banned
Ouch.
Of course wilson has a nice game AFTER my money league team was eliminated.
Bah!
Yea...should have known better than to start both of them. Didn't expect the Rams to jam the running lanes and take Rawls down behind the line of scrimmage that much.
sf2fanatic
Member
Thx. Hopefully we'll meet in the championship game
FloydtheFathead
Member
Well it's not Pep or PD.. so I feel that I'm already a winner.
Hopefully Gore does well since I am starting him in the Shirtless League and I'm projected to lose by 2-3 points I believe...

If AJ Green is good to go, I would start him. CIN are still in the playoff hunt, so they need him.
If AJ can't go, use Jackson for boom potential.

Julio is out for this week
Tom Nook

Falcon don't need him against the Niners.
Gabriel is a good start but Freeman and Colemon will get the most points.
thank god they announced that beforehand
fucks my week though most likely, already had wilson and baldwin shit on me
PandaPandaPanda
Member
as a fellow cooks owner, I feel he's unstartable this week(and possibly rest of season)
His road/home splits are real. I think other than the game he had in KC(at least for standard scoring) he hasn't broken 6 points in away games. I think a lot of it has to do with Brees/Thomas getting targets but i'm not playing him in the playoffs. I'm fortunate to have depth at WR so I won't be starting him next week at home either if I make it that far since I can't risk another goose egg from him.
FloydtheFathead
Member
I think I agree with that since Brees hasn't worked himself out of the funk he's in... I think it's best.
Good thing I have Coleman and Gabriel...
Sorry
