Doc.
As Week 6 flex would you start Best, Wallace, Britt, or Crabtree?
Thanks for your help.
Feeling stupid dropped Williams TB for Tate now. Tate worth dropping if he doesn’t do anything SUN? I will need a WR for week 7. Tate is my WR3 which isn’t good. Had to drop Knox for QB last week too. Didn’t think I would make bad mistakes like I have been.
@fyodor: I like all of them. Best will probably see a lot of work with Megatron hurting.
@MJD Took A Knee: could you switch Tate back for either right now?
Doc, should i start santana moss over megatron this week with meg prob being limited?
I have solid RB1 and WR1 and WR2 with Santonio as WR3. Should I roll Lynch or Knox as Flex? Great stuff, Doc. Keep it up.
For my flex position, Britt or Addai? I usually prefer RB’s for the consistency but the shoulder injury is a little worrisome?
Any specific thoughts on Aaron Hernandez? Against a tough defense, he’s ranked ahead of a lot of quality TE’s (Celek, Winslow, Keller).
@ Doc, assuming Megatron is active come Sunday, do I start him over Mike Williams (TB), Tony Gonzalez or Zach Miller? I am worried that even if he is active he will just be a decoy
Both were picked up. I thought they might make it until SUN waivers last week. Not much with the waiver WR. Hester/Breaston/Louis Murphy/Steve Johnson/James Jones types. Woodland creatures need an ambulance around here. Not many trades since so many people have gotten burned.
I’ve been going back and forth on Flacco/Big Ben all week and had Flacco set after reading Evan Silva’s wrap up. Now you’ve got Ben a tick ahead. Is it a toss up?
@DSimms: I think if he plays you need to start Megatron. Early game so we’ll know.
@JTin: With Moss gone and Welker getting extra attention I think he gets a bunch of targets and his ability to run after the catch is insane. He’s probably the fastest TE in the league. I think he’s an every week starter now.
@Harley: Yeah, it is a worry, but the talk is that he’s a go.
@MJD Took A Knee: Hah!
@hideousmutants: Yeah, it’s really close. I think Silva believes they’ll ease Ben back. I do think they’ll run, but Cleveland is too bad at pass D to not get burnt a couple times.
Do you like A-Her over Keller for the rest of the season?
Britt, Bowe, or BGE as my flex in a 0.5 PPR league? Thanks.
@Wilsonian: It’s close, but yes.
@friar: Britt
@Doc: Would you trade Mathews for T.O.? I need WR help and have Mathews on the bench right now (JC, Best, LDT as starters). I was also offered his Brandon Tate for my Felix Jones. Thoughts? Thanks!
should i trade Brady, Best, Kevin Smith and mason for Vick, Matt Ryan, B. Jacobs and B. Marshall.
I have Gore, Ricky W, Djax, wes.
After this week, would you drop Kicker: Nugent or Reed?
@Doc: that being said, do you drop Keller now for A-Her, especially with Keller’s bye next week?
Second opinion. 12 team non-ppr:
RB(1): Felix, Torain, Greene
WR(1): Welker, Wallace, Knox
Flex(1): Leftovers from above
Your rankings indicate Torain, Welker and then either Wallace or Felix for flex. But I understand that’s not really how it works.
Extra info: I have Brady and Hernandez starting, so I’m leaning Wallace over Welker to diversify a little bit. My opponent has LT (I’m not sure how that would affect my decision to play Greene or not, but thought I’d note it).
14-teamer. In a lot of trouble. Have DeAngelo on a bye this week.
Kuhn or Roy E. Williams at flex?
Thanks a lot
2 RB slots and a flex spot open.
Who do you start:
Bradshaw NYG
Michael Bush OAK
Felix Jones DAL
Shonn Greene NYJ
Mike Williams – good one
Mike Thomas JAX
12-team ppr league ^^^
@Doc – could you please pick two of these three to start? 0.5 PPR
Crabtree vs. Oak
Knox vs. Sea
Green-Ells vs. Bal
Thanks!
Really weak team,
who should I start at flex,
Amendola, or mercedes lewis? non ppr, reg scoring.
Why is nate burleson so high going against the leagues top pass defense?
I need 2 from burleson, nate washington, mike thomas, bess, mccluster, and dez bryant who’s probably out… ugh
I have Fitz, TO, Steve Smith on byes :(
@Professor Chaos: I don’t like either trade for you.
@Bluety: I don’t think you want to have to start Ricky W. I’d try something else.
@Rookie Season: Reed
@Wilsonian: I’d try to trade Keller.
@Calogero: I’d go with Torain, Welker, and that flex is tough. I’m leaning Jones, but will feel ok with any of the others.
@Whiskey Diet: Bradshaw/Bush/Jones
@k: I’d sit Green-Ellis
@andrew: Lewis
@AB: If Megatron doesn’t go that’s where I would have him. I’d go with Burls and Washington
Two tough decisions this week. It’s a PPR league with 1 point per reception.
Eddie Royal, Mike Williams (TB), or Javhid Best for the flex (Hines Ward and Percy Harvin are my starting receivers and Ladianan Tomilson and Jamaal Charles at running back).
And the Chargers D (Been great at home, awful on the road) or the Falcons D (Been very consistent). I think Kolb without a full offensive line could spell fantasy goodness and am really concerned about the Chargers on the road.
Really? DeSean Jackson that high with Kolb at QB again? I have Britt, Ward, and S. Moss all starting ahead of D. Jackson. Am I a fool?
Thank you in advance for your honesty.
Jamall Charles or Greg Jennings for m rb/wr slot??
I’ve got megatron, crabtree, Ricky Williams & Lynch. I need a wr and a flex. I’m starting Ronnie brown and am not thrilled at the idea of starting both guys. Feel like lynch could be big. Worried about how much megatron is gonna be able to do. Any ideas?
@Harry: It’s just hard to hold down that kind of ability for long and DJax isn’t just a deep threat so he can get the ball short and go. And he is still Kolb’s most targeted receiver. I can see why you would want to bench him with Kolb in there, and it may work out, but I rather bet on DJax’s ability.
@infamy707: I like both, but I’m leaning Charles.
@Chris: I have a feeling they’ll sit Megatron. I would lean Lynch.
@Cullen: Best/Atlanta
@PaulPaul: I’d lean Roy.
Doc,
10 team league reg espn scoring.
Qb Ryan & favre
rb AP, Foster, mendy, rice,snelling
Wr Wayne, Percy, roy will
Te shanko n aherdwe start 2 rbs n wr n 1 flex
Def biltzburg
I’m 3-2 since, starting 3-0…..I’ve had some bad match ups….I have rice n AP via two player keeper league. …who should I trade?? Or should I wait it out..
Doc, 1) Best or Felix Jones in the flex this week? 2) Hartley, Folk or Akers? THANKS!
@DANgerous:
Dude you have 4 top-7 RB and only 3 places for them in the starting lineup.
You gotta trade someone for a stud WR. Try Foster for Roddy White, Austin or AJ or try to get Nicks or Marshall in some other type of deal.
No reason to have more guys than you can play and roll with a hit-or-miss guy like Harvin or Roy W every week.
Need 1 WR, 1 RB and a Flex:
Greg Jennings, Pierre Garcon, Michael Crabtree, Mike Sims-Walker
Marshawn Lynch, Darren McFadden, Marion Barber
P.S. I hate Pierre Thomas. Killing me.
i have been offered Lynch, Vic, Calvin and tate for Best, brady, K. Smith and welker would you do it?
louis murphy or steve johnson.. going forward..
as WR3?
drop d. henderson for R.bush – now or wait?
I wouldn’t really need him until week 10 – but he’s still there in FA Players?
correction: week 9 for Bush
Hey Doc: rest of the way, Brandon Lloyd or Percy Harvin?
I just got a trade offer of Peyton Manning for either Jamaal Charles or Ahmad Bradshaw.
My Rbs currently are Charles, Bradshaw, Turner, Williams (TB)
My Qbs Currently are Jay Cutler, Matt Ryan
What are your guys thoughs, should I do the trade?
@DANgerous: Agree with Calogera. Whatever RB you leave on the bench is worth too much to be there. I think all of them have good long term value, but I would probably shop Foster.
@elwood blues: I’d go with Murphy and grab Bush
@Van Hammersly: I like Harvin a lot with Moss there now. So Harvin, but it’s scary.
@Sparts: I don’t usually trade for top QBs, but I think it fits your team and he is top 3 QB. I would trade Bradshaw.
Ageed gents unfortunately the teams in the league our offering the likes of colston like wrs for mendy or foster……or moss for foster straight up…just needed some reassurance
Which side in a .5 ppr, and it’s it close, redraft
A
Andre Johnson
Thomas Jones
B
Greg Jennings
Beanie Wells
Fred Jackson
Doc : Would you lose D. Bess or Bengals D for Fred Jackson?
PPR League who would you start? Need 1 RB and 1 Flex out of these 5
Torain
F Jones
Hillis
Crabtree
Knox
Would you start A-Hern over Witten? Thanks!
.5 PPR league, who do I start? Need 1 RB and 1 Flex out of these 4
Felix
Torain
A-Her
Bjax
PPR, Jamaal Charles or Ryan Torain?
Jennings or Mike wallace? I am leaning towards wallace? Will I miss Jennings finally acting like a number one?
PPR, point per 25 return yards pick 2: Charles, Forte, Harvin, Torain, Best
I pulled the trigger ryan,foster, roy Williams. For Matthews, romo, welker….hope I did the right thing
@BearDown: It’s close but i think AP trumps the upside of Jennings and Wells as long as he’s healthy.
@Mr2Bits: In PPR I like Bess’ reliability. IF you have 2 D’s I’d lose the Bengals.
@Steve Mc: Torain/Knox
@dae42: I’d stick with Witten
@Zobmie: JC
@rak: The squeaky wheel gets the grease and Jennings has been squeaking. I’m leaning GJ.
@genghis chone: Charles/Harvin
@DANgerous: I like the Romo upgrade.
Your rankings: Garcon (WR #27), Crabtree (WR #28), Felix Jones (RB# 21), B Jacobs (RB #24). I need to pick three out of the four. Thanks in advance for the advice!
Ah Jeez, what do I do. I am in the JC Supertar conundrum. Should I start him over Hines Ward, or Mike Wallace as my flex. If not which would you go for Ward or Wallace. Also I have Matt Ryan as a starting qb, I offered up Ward for Roethlisberger…Is that a worthy deal? Thanks for the help.
*PPR league, sry.
Doc,
Which one for a flex?: Braylon Edwards or Felix Jones
(Already starting Romo, Best, R. Moss, Maclin, & Z. Miller)
Leaning towards Edwards because of the matchup, Sanchez seems to be favoring him, and Holmes easing in and taking up coverage. However, I am seeing Jones move up flex lists.
Doc, I’ve got one more for you. Different league.
Who do you start: Maclin or Britt?
(BTW, both leagues I asked about are PPR)
With Benson on bye this week, I’m faced with a tough decision…
In a PPR league I can start one of the following RBs: BenJarvus Green-Elllis, Mike Tolbert, or Brandon Jacobs.
I’m leaning toward BJGE since he’s likely to get the most carries, but he’s against Baltimore and relying on a Patriots RB is not the safest idea. Tolbert will likely see much less action with Mathews healthy and he looked awful last week, but both he and Jacobs will probably see quite a few goal line carries this week.
What do you think?
@bfeels: I’d sit Jacobs
@Luke: I’d go with JC. That deal is good.
@Seth: It’s close, but I think Chamo will be on Edwards. I’d lean Jones.
@Seth: Hmm, I’m leaning Britt
@Shark Bait: That is tough. It’s between Jacobs and The Firm for me. I think I like Jacobs chance to get into the endzone.
