Nfl Fantasy: Start 'em Or Sit 'em?

Featured Replies

I figured I'd make this thread for anyone who plays fantasy football. If you would like other members' opinions on who you should start or sit on any given week, just post! This way we can talk football without a million fantasy questions on the other thread about the 2015 season. If you have any question regarding help wit your fantasy, just ask here.

Jeremy Maclin or Andre Johnson?

  • Global Moderator

Maclin tweaked his back but listed as probable as of now.

But Back problems can be a freak thing.

Johnson is still learning the offense after signing as a FA, didn't have a great day last week. If he gets Revis in his face all day that could hurt him.

If it were me I'd play Johnson...but that's me.

Good Luck

Deangelo Williams or Joseph Randle?

With Bell still on suspension, I'd play Williams for at least 1 more week.

He got 100+ last week so he will get the majority of the carries.

I don't like RB by committee, even tho Jordan did pretty good.

I'd play Williams (which I am in all leagues)

But that's me

Good Luck

shane Vereen or Darren sproles? im leaning strongly to sproles but wanna hear opinions, anyway

Sproles. Vereen was used mostly as a receiver than a RB and didn't get a lot of touches.

Right on the money

Golden Tate or Brandon Marshall?

Golden Tate or Brandon Marshall?

not crazy about either one but Tate if I had to choose. Marshall will have a heavy dose of Vonte Davis and might be almost non existent. 

  • Global Moderator

Agree...

Davis will be locked on Marshall all game, Decker will most likely have his way in slot.

Tate will be getting the 2nd look as he always does, but still should be targeted enough to give decent points.

But that's me

Good Luck

should I trust travis Benjamin to have a good game in Oakland, or should I entrust steve smith with the starting spot against cincinatti?

  • Global Moderator

I'd take Benjamin, he's hot right now and I think he's in the top 10 overall.

If you get return points in your league that also a plus.

A fellow craps shooter once told me, when shooting dice...

"The trend is your friend" I'd ride him till he falls off.

But thats me

Neither. Pick up Rishard Matthews if he's out there before Parker comes in full swing.

 

Travis Benjamin feels too much like Eddie Royal 2 years ago in week 1-2. Also, he's caught a grand total of 6 passes this year....3 in each game. You're banking on Josh McCown throwing and hooking up a 50 yd TD at some point in the game or you're looking at a stat line of 1-2 catches for 20 yards.

 

Smith is facing a good secondary but he and Gilmore are the only things Flacco throws to and will be peppered with targets.

 

If you need a homerun, Benjamin would be my choice against OAK but you could also be looking at 0-2 points. If you just need a higher floor but limited ceiling, I'll take the guy that's getting 12-15 targets per game in what is considered a "must win" game.

He saved me last week and gave me more worry lines in the process!!

Im sitting him this week only because I have a better matchup.

(I think)

I have brady playing the jags this week, so luck is grabbing some bench for me. I would consider playing him, unless you have another qb with a better matchup.
