Sunday morning FF talk

OBJRoyal : 9/24/2017 8:15 am
Line up question here: I have three backs and need to pick one. Played Hyde Thursday night and he did ok.

Pick one from:

Gordon vs Chiefs
Cook vs Bucs
Gillislee vs Houston

I have Gordon in now. His pass game involvement should help
Welp  
Eli owns all : 9/24/2017 8:27 am : link
I'd say Hyde did more than okay. I hate Gordon but he's best play of the 3. I benched dalvin for buck Allen in my league TB just going to stack the box. I want no part of any patriots running back Gillislee is td or bust.
I view Gordon  
bigbluehoya : 9/24/2017 8:27 am : link
As a must-start back every week barring injury.
Gordon and his 3 yards per carry?  
robbieballs2003 : 9/24/2017 8:33 am : link
I like Gordon but he is TD dependent. I'd go Cook.

Exactly Gordon and Gurly the love they get is ridiculous.
On further thought,

With Bradford out I would go Gordon. Keenum is just bad and doesn't help that offense out at all.

Have you seen Gurley this year? He is the top back in fantasy as of now.

nygiants16 : 9/24/2017 8:40 am : link
got an alert demarco is suiting up i have him in 3 leagues
nygiants16 : 8:13 am : link : reply
already decided to play javoirious allen in one league over him..

in my other 2:

murray or chris thompson?

murray or derrick henry?
I have 2 injures RBS  
DavidinBMNY : 9/24/2017 8:41 am : link
Leaving me very thin. Murray and Rob Kelly. For my rb2 i can also go with deep backuls available with Darkwa and Kamara.

Who would you play, being Kelly is unexpected to play out of the other 3?

Darkwa and pray for a miracle td?
I'm benching Murray in favor of West  
kelsto811 : 9/24/2017 8:42 am : link
It's probably a bad call but I just can't see Murray being effective at all. So if it's me I'm not playing him
Just because Murray is suiting up doesn't mean  
robbieballs2003 : 9/24/2017 8:44 am : link
He will get a heavy workload or not re-injure himself. I would be very wary about starting him. Thompson always seems to be solid. Henry is dependent on Murray's workload. I would try to get more information leading up to the game on how Murray looked. As of now I would lean toward Henry.
Henry  
Eli owns all : 9/24/2017 8:48 am : link
Is taking Murray's job no matter what. I'd trade Murray for whatever you can get. At best he will be 40-60 workload going forward. Look at end of last season and he start of this season. Henry is just the better back at this point. Hyde slashed Seattle defense up last week I expect Henry can do the same.
Gordon is a top 5 RB  
Mr. Nickels : 9/24/2017 9:39 am : link
He is a must start every week.

Yes, your right, Hyde did better than OK. Gillislee could run a lot in the second half.... Just the thinking there

That's my thinking on Cook too. Bucs have no reason to fear the pass
You  
ThatLimerickGuy : 9/24/2017 10:08 am : link
Are either in an 8 team league or you play with ten year Olds if you have those backs.
I was considering Marquise Lee for the flex  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 9/24/2017 10:11 am : link
and had no idea they were playing in London this week. shows how much the overall NFL has dropped in my day-to-day consideration.
Guys, I have some serious problems deciding this week  
EricJ : 9/24/2017 10:46 am : link
in one of my non ppr ESPN leagues. I have Carlos Hyde and so my other RB spot and a Flex will most likely be Melvin Gordon and Derrick Henry

My 2 WR spots are..
Brandin Cooks
Devante Adams << starting him for sure
JJ Nelson
Hogan

I could also use one of these WRs as my flex and sit one of the RBs.

Dont even get me started with my tough TE choices of..
Ben Watson vs Engram and I rolled the dice on Watson. So far it is looking like a bad decision.
Jordan  
pjcas18 : 9/24/2017 10:54 am : link
Reed doubtful per Schefter.

Quote:
Sun, Sep 24

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Jordan Reed (chest, shoulder, toe) will be a game-time decision.

Advice: Schefter says he is "more unlikely to play" than to suit up, but Washington will still take it to the wire. The good news for Reed owners is Vernon Davis is available in most leagues and a great fill-in option if Reed cannot play.



My options (non PPR) are:

Engram @PHI
Witten vs ARI
Hooper @DET
Njoku @IND

Right now I have Engram in b/c he was on my roster, but would you start any of the other three over him?

I agree on Engram

Henry and Lynch.
Gordon is a must start - he's gotten in double digits both starts  
PatersonPlank : 9/24/2017 12:32 pm : link
He doesn't just rush it, he also is averaging 45 yds per game in receptions. The whole SD offense revolves around him, and when they get to the goal line they actually give it to him instead of bringing in some obscure backup. He's the main cog in the offense and is a sure start when healthy.

Especially in PPR leagues, he was 12 catches so far.

Tough call man.. Abdullah is the starter getting most of the RB touches, but you may have the most upside with White.

Remember, last week Abdullah had his career high game and he only delivered about 8-9 fantasy points.
