200lbMumford Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 OK, so I didn't see a thread for this, only the one that discusses your board league. If this should be it's own topic let me know. But I'm getting tired of getting in my own way. So in both weeks 1 and 2 I had seven players for six slots and I chose the wrong person to leave on the bench both weeks. So now I'm looking for advice. Who would you leave on your bench? (I need reasonings too, not just a list) League: 1/2 ppr, standard 1 per 10 yardage and 6 per td Positions: RB RB WR WR TE FLEX Players M. Thomas - WR - NO (@WAS) M. Crabtree - WR - OAK (@CAR) K. Benjamin - WR - CAR (v.OAK) L. McCoy - RB - BUF (v.DEN) L. Fournette - RB - JAX (v.BAL) C. Hyde - RB - SF (v.LAR) J. Reed - TE - WAS (v.NO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
200lbMumford Posted September 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Quick note, QB is D. Carr which gives me synergy with Crabtree if that matters to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 I have to chose between Big Ben @ Chicago or Matt Ryan @ Detroit - leaning towards Big Ben RBs Fornette @ Bal and Stewart (Caro.) vs NO Cincy doesn't use Joe Mixon enough and Murray may be back instead of Derrick Henry (last minute decision) WRs Antonio Brown, Amari Cooper and Tyreek Hill - Doesn't matter who because Olsen is on IR and Diggs may not have Bradford back (last minute decision on that one too). K Crosby (GB) - vs Cin Def- Chiefs @ Chargers or Browns @ Indy tough decision here too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben's home/road splits are frightening. I know Chicago is not good, but he's a mediocre QB on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K Crosby (GB) - vs Cin Def- Chiefs @ Chargers or Browns @ Indy tough decision here too. I'd lean towards Matt Ryan. That game has the highest projected point total this week at 50.5. Both offenses are pass happy. I feel like the Steelers will take an early lead and pound the rock against da Bears. Only thing I'd say on your backs is keep your ears open, with a new offensive coordinator in Cincy higher Mixon usage may occur rapidly. Defense? BROWNS BABY! Your receivers to me are set it and forget it except for bye weeks. Brown and Cooper are weekly starts regardless of matchup. Between Hill and Diggs I go Hill everytime? Why you say? KC goes out of their way to put the ball in his hands, he's a weapon in the passing game as well as returns and sweeps. That is my take on your team.

Your receivers are very close in what I believe to be their total annual points. Pick 3 and ride them with the exception of bye weeks or injury. Same with your backs , I roll with Fournette and McCoy all day long with Hyde to fill bye week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

200lbMumford Posted September 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Or are you saying roll with the 3 WR and sit Hyde this week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing matcchups with your team to me makes no sense. Far more often than not you will outsmart yourself. I might deviate only if Hyde had an EXTREMELY plus match up.

Tour2ma Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Didn't Ryan lose an OL this week?

It does... that's why I have Carr-Crabtree paired in my IDP league. Just missed nabbing Crabtree in my H2H. I'm looking for a breakout by Thomas this week. K Benj should struggle vs, OAK with Olsen gone. RB pickins are a lil slim, but you have to ride McCoy, tho as BUF will have no choice but to do the same. I expect BLT to load up and stuff Fournette. Hyde feels like a reach, but the 49ers D is legit and against the Rams that could mean some added, short-field, TD opportunities for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelvin is a tough one to decipher until maybe after this week. I would expect targets to increase for both him and Funchess but we shall see how that plays out.

TexasAg1969 Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 KB is in better shape this year than last. I wanted him for my team, but he was snapped up too fast. But I was happy with Brown, Cooper and Hill so I can't bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
