NFT: FF Thanksgiving Edition

EricJ : 11/22/2017 8:26 pm
So, lets get a jump on tomorrow's lineup decisions. Since there are three games, most people actually have to make the weekend start/sit decisions by tomorrow. I happen to have a tough decision in the league that matters most to me. This is a standard league and I have to sit ONE of these 4 viable RBs to play tomorrow. Who would you sit?

Melvin Gordon @ Dallas
Hyde @ Seattle
Perine vs The Giants
Tevin Coleman vs Tampa (Looks like Freeman will sit again)

My WR positions are not as easy either. Basically I have to choose ONE of these guys because Cooks is already locked in at one spot.

Thielen @ Det (leaning towards him)
Davante Adams @ Pitt
Rishard Matthews @ Indy
Marvin Jones vs Minn

The WR call is not hard at all.

Thielen is a must start.

yeah but those RBs... I have to sit one of them. It really is a tough call.

I'd sit Perine out of those 4 RB's.

Theilen is a no brainer. In my PPR leagues, he's the 3rd highest scoring WR in the entire league. Only AB and Hopkins have more points.

yeah I would agree unless Freeman plays and starts. If that happens, then Perine would have been the better start vs Coleman. I hate Thursday games.
Hmm... perine vs Hyde considering opponents is tough  
MetsAreBack : 11/22/2017 8:59 pm : link
If freeman does play ... Coleman isn't much but I almost think deciding him bs Hyde on Sunday is the best call

Giants D looked good Sunday (with help from the wind) - but this is on the road on a short week and players could make a business decision (again) with some of the media scrutiny off

If it's PPR, Hyde over Perine is an easy call. Perine isn't going to be very involved in the pass game - he doesn't have good hands. They'll likely use Byron Marshall more in Thompson's absence.
I'd go with Perine over Hyde  
Big Rick in FL : 11/22/2017 9:05 pm : link
The Giants suck. The Seahawks don't. Also Thielen is a better start then either of them.

It is a standard league... no PPR

I missed that bit. In that case, you can basically flip a coin. Hyde is the better player with a tougher matchup.

Hey guys. Happy Thanksgiving!

Looking for WR2 and Flex help for standard scoring.

Tate @ Vikings or Juju vs GB?
L.Murray vs Det or Perine vs NYG?

Not easy choices here but your choices are much easier than mine. I think you go Juju since it is standard and not a PPR. You need TDs to rack up points and Juju is more of a red zone target than Tate is. Plus GB can be passed on easier than MN.

For your RB... I guess Perine because he will probably get more touches than Murray
Which RB  
terz22 : 11/23/2017 8:49 am : link
Pick one Powell, Lynch, Dion Lewis

Leaning towards Powell of forte is out.
SIt Perine  
superspynyg : 11/23/2017 8:50 am : link
Alway Theilen.

Morris vs Chargers or Ajayi vs Chicago?
I would start Ajayi  
Someguy1978 : 11/23/2017 10:49 am : link
over Morris.

Here's mine...Roethlisberger vs Green Bay or Cousins vs the Giants?

I like Ben in that one.

I have a couple.

Ben vs GB
or
Matt Ryan vs TB

In ppr who for flex:

Amari Cooper vs DEN
Delanie Walker @IND
Core Coleman @CIN

Leaning Ben and Walker.

PJ, I agree with where you are leaning

just a note for Freeman owners (like me), sounds like he could play, but sounds like it will be risky.

Devonta Freeman will be limited in practice today, he's still in protocol but a good sign that he's making progress


I an thin at RB, I only have Howard, Mixon and Freeman.

So without Freeman I've been playing Mixon.

And that is why my decision in the original post is so difficult. I have to decide today on Perine. If Freeman is sure to sit then I would rather have Coleman. However, I would not prefer Coleman if Freeman plays.

So, I am starting Perine at home with the Giants also working on a short week on the road. Perine gets the majority of the touches so I would think I am guaranteed about 10 pts.

I think that's the right call especially with Thompson and Kelley on IR.

Well I got screwed a bit today...  
EricJ : 11/23/2017 8:21 pm : link
Thielen with a bit of a down week for him. Melvin Gordon the same... only about 18 points combined from both of them. I had Marvin Jones on the bench and he goes off again for 22 points.

LOL, I've gotten a combined ~8 points from Dak in the last THREE weeks. Almost hard to do.

Dude is wrecking my BBI team right now. Before Watson went down, I was pretty much unbeatable. Now? Not so much.
