Fantasy Football 9/28

odunde : 9/28/2014 7:35 am
ppr league, need to start two of the following:

Cordarelle Patterson, Deandre Hopkins, Reggie bush

Thanks
I think i would definitely start Bush  
robbieballs2003 : 9/28/2014 7:45 am : link
I think he is going to catch some short underneath passes to help tire out that Jet DL. Hopkins looked good against us last week. Patterson has Bridgewater. I actually like Bridgewater but he concerns me a little.

I'd probably say Hopkins and Bush.

I would say Crabtree and Brown easily. I would probably go with White myself but I can see Allen as well. White is still coming back from an injury so I don't know what to expect.
I have Allen and wish I had a better option he's been underwhelming  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2014 8:39 am : link
so far this year. But with White coming off an injury and me continually starting him last year while he was injured but playing, I'm not sure he's a better option. Toss up between those two IMO.

Is anyone starting Arian Foster this week? I know he's a GTD but he's expected to play.

I have bye week and suspension issues.

My other options at RB would be Sankey or Knile Davis (who I know already is at best splitting carries, more likely relegated to backup 10 - 12 touches).

So, Sankey, Davis or Foster are my options.
If Foater plays and he seems he will  
robbieballs2003 : 9/28/2014 8:42 am : link
you have to start him
I have him in for now  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2014 8:45 am : link
with the expectation he's cleared to play. we knew early last week he wasn't playing.

If he's not I'm kind of screwed, I'll be at my kids hockey game from 11:30 - 1:30, and I hate being that dad on his phone the whole time. So I'll probably set my lineup at 11, based on whatever information I have then.

I'm watching the NFL channel and while nothing is official they said he is expected to play. I think the injury reports come in at 11:30/12:00.
Frank Gore or Steven Jackson?  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 9/28/2014 9:10 am : link
CBS has gore ranked pretty high this week.

I think you have to play Foster. Some idiot in my league dropped Allen and I used most of my waiver budget to grab him. He'll bounce back. I think this week is as good as any.
Id go Gore over Jackson

Brandin Cooks vs DAL or Terrance Williams (vs. NO, obviously)

As of now, going Cooks.

Cooks
i need to start 2 out of the 3  
NewYorkGiants : 9/28/2014 10:08 am : link
Bradshaw
Mike wallace
Matt asiata

Standard scoring
Absolutely Cooks.  
BigBlueShock : 9/28/2014 10:08 am : link
I have a tougher one.

Jace Amaro vs. Detroit or Eric Ebron vs. Jests?

It's a terrible bye week for me in my dynasty league so I have to rely on one of these guys. Neither has been involved much, but Amaro did have 50 yards last week, so maybe he's getting involved more? (Haven't watched a second of the Jests this year)

Megaton has an ankle, and though he's expected to play, is this the game that Ebron gets involved?

It's prolly a losing proposition either way, but what are your thoughts?
bradshaw  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2014 10:16 am : link
and wallace, I don't think Asiata is a bad option though either.

no other FA TE's in your league?

On wed I got Donnell off waivers in my league and obviously got a huge game from him Thursday night


Would anyone play Bernard Pierce over  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2014 10:19 am : link
either Keenan Allen or Jordan Matthews?

PPR league. Matthews is becoming Foles favorite target.

No way. With Pierce, Forsett and Taliaferro all healthy we have no idea how the touches will be distributed let alone have them go up against Carolina.

I would play Matthews in that situation.

I have a terrible choice I need to make today. Please pick my two startings RBs (while stifling laughter as much as possible):

Gerhart
Kniles Davis
Pierce
Rainey

fun stuff.....
that is a tough choice  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2014 10:30 am : link
you have to go gerhart, and then I think Rainey or Pierce. Probably Rainey, though he has a similarly crowded backfield as Pierce, only against a worse opponent I guess.

Davis plays Monday night and I think I've read for sure Charles is playing, so you already know he's splitting carries at best. But I don't know I'd want to wait until then because then you have to play Davis.

Nope. I have Pierce in both leagues and I'm leaving him on the bench. I think he had one shot last week to take a hold of the job and he couldn't give it a go. I doubt he ever gets it back now. He'll wind up just being a rotational guy.
I have him benched too  
pjcas18 : 9/28/2014 10:33 am : link
but if that's true Arc, I really need Ben Tate to take hold of the RB job in CLE when he's back (which should be next week), like his coach said he would.

Besides Pierce, my only RB's are Forte, Vereen, Tate, and Hyde.

pj - that's the exact deduction I came to. Davis playing on Monday night prevents me from considering him. Pierce is in a three-headed play situation and he sucks this year anyway. Rainey sucks too but because of it only being the two of them, that's where I was leaning.

All around bad choices, but what are you gonna do!
Sounds like we have similar teams..  
arcarsenal : 9/28/2014 10:36 am : link
I also need Tate to take that job back desperately.. and with West and Crowell looking pretty good in the meantime, the outlook isn't as good.

I also have Forte. Lamar Miller is keeping me alive right now with Moreno out. I have Hyde but he's not getting enough work to start on a weekly basis and I also have Jeremy Hill who has been passable as a flex in his last 2 games.
Jordan Matthews or Brandon Marshall?  
Jimmy Googs : 9/28/2014 11:04 am : link
I picked up Matthews this week on waivers in case Marshall was out. Sounds like he'll play but will he be effective?

what do you think?
I'd go Marshall  
Sly Guy : 9/28/2014 11:09 am : link
Most of Matthews scoring last week came from TDs. Not a fan of rookies being TD dependent so early in the season.

Need RB help:

Choose 2 out of this lot:

Charles, Spiller, F. Jackson, Blue and Taliaferro.

I'm leaning towards Charles and Jackson but I've been wrong on my RBs all year long. What do you guys suggest?
1/2 pt PPR
