Torrey Smith vs. NE

Murray and Johnson.

RBs are:
Arian Foster
Darren Sproles
Demarco Murray
Steven Ridley

TEs are:
Cony Fleener
Fred Davis

Currently have a waiver claim in for Martellus Bennett and dropping Davis but have the 9th priority of 10.

Inquired about Pitta and the owner wants Ridley while already having Graham.

Start RB and RB/WR and a TE.

Would you pull the trigger? .5 PPR.

If Haden's still out I'dgo Stevie, otherwise take the risk on Dola.

I'd go Stevie either way he's a TD machine. He has a TD in like 8 straight games.

K Train · 09-20-2012, 08:30 AM

just sold calvin johnson for a kings ransom

I got: Demarco Murray, Marshawn Lynch, Reggie Wayne, Desean Jackson, Tom Brady, and Houstons defense

He got: Calvin Johnson, Jay Cutler, Jamaal Charles, and Dallas Defense

Pretty much landed Murray, Lynch, Wayne, and Jackson for calvin then got to swap QBs and DST both were significant upgrades for me and i had to throw in either charles or forte and i chose charles because i think forte has the more long term value even tho hes hurt

Davis. He's the #1 guy for Alex Smith.

Tough choices, as Stevie is the only one with a favorable matchup. I'd start Johnson and Murray, too. Murray has the worst matchup of the bunch but it's a "bad on paper" type matchup b/c the Bucs have given up so much in the passing game.

That sure is some nice RB depth. I hate parting with RB depth early in the season, so I'm leaning towards no. But 2 RBs rotting on your bench is pretty rough. Obviously, if you get Bennett there's no need at all.

Murray + Lynch for Charles
Wayne + Jackson for Calvin
and you get an upgrade at QB . . .

Trade. Rape.

lol

Bert Macklin · 09-20-2012, 09:05 AM

So my oppoonent has Cruz and overnight his projection jumped up to 28 points (PPR) and he's now projected to beat me 145.6 to 145.5

FlyingElvis · 09-20-2012, 09:10 AM

Probably b/c Nicks is out.

Not that the projections mean anything, though.

lol

now my team is:

QB: Brady
WR: Wayne
WR: Bowe
WR: V Jax
RB: Murray
RB: Lynch
TE: Bennett
K Zuerlien
DST Houston

Bench:
Forte
Deangelo Williams
Desean Jackson
Decker
Ben Tate
Daryl Richardson
Jonathan Dwyer

He put murray on the block and i offere decker and vjax for him, he said he didnt want to do it because he had them in 2 other leagues but he said hed pretty much give me anything i wanted for calvin (him and forte were my keepers) and then i said ill make you and offer but your probably not gonna like it because there no way im coming out of this trade not being a significant winner....he liked it apparently lol

K Train · 09-20-2012, 09:16 AM

honeslty i think nicks being out makes cruz go down. probably makes bennett, hixon, randle or barden whoever the **** the play when nicks is out go up more than it makes cruz go up

drowe · 09-20-2012, 09:17 AM

Martellus Bennet or Dennis Pita?

HALP!

K Train · 09-20-2012, 09:18 AM

bennett definitely with nicks out

K Train · 09-20-2012, 09:20 AM

Im thinking about starting Jason Avant (who i havent picked up yet) in my flex this week over sanders and hawkins. I hope mendenhall can eventually be my flex guy but deseasn jackson has a bad hamstring, maclin is out with his hip likely and cooper is out with a collarbone...i feel like avant would be reliable. Thoughts?

my RBs are peterson and richardson and my WRs are calvin, bowe, and mike williams...im stacked at those spots but always struggle with picking the right flex guy

Last week I started the day playing 5 players and my OPP one Torrey Smith. I was beating him bad naturally and projected to beat him by 20. Torrey Smith catches one pass and he was then projected to beat me by 10. I wonder what the formula is for projections.

People have been saying Pitta but I think Bennet is the way to go.

espn? i think its relative to how much they are projected to get divided by how much they actually have already scored with respect to how much time is left.

So if you have a guy that is projected to get 10 and he gets 9 on the first drive, you have 55 minutes left it techincally puts him on pace for like 100, obviously that tapers off as the game goes on

Bennett. It sounds like NE is considering Rice and Pitta as the top 2 threats and will focus on neutralizing them. NE is good at neutralizing the guys they deem the biggest threats.

Maclin is a gametime decision again. (Bleh. I have him and it sucks!) Avant had 2 catches after Maclin left the game last week. Celek saw all the extra attention. I'd roll with Hawkins.

scottyboy · 09-20-2012, 10:20 AM

Marty B may be a top 10 fantasy TE play this week. With Nicks out, I said it before, but here's how the giants redzone offense will go:

1st down: Fade to Barden (never works, but I'm starting him over Sidney Rice on the off chance one will)

2nd down: Run with Brown/Wilson for anywhere between -2 to 2 yards

3rd down: Cruz is tripled, Randle not open, Eli goes to Marty. Now, odds he hangs on to it...50/50 but still

Bert Macklin · 09-20-2012, 11:13 AM

I like my chances. I'm somewhere OverDwayneBowe

K Train · 09-20-2012, 11:17 AM

cant tell which is which but i think the guy with the BLAIR WALSH PROJECT is gonna win

I think that's all one team . . . it says Starters and Bench. ???

I hope I'm wrong cuz that lineup is full of fail. ;)

Bert Macklin · 09-20-2012, 11:29 AM

No in order to do a screen shot it can't show everything. Two teams I'm on the right. Vick In A Box is the left.
