OFFICIAL 2014 FANTASY FOOTBALL THREAD

I never understood the whole Lynch doesn't catch passes thing.


Guy is coming off a 300+ yard receiving campaign with 36 receptions and 4 TDs. Not too bad for a guy who is stigmatized as one-dimensional back. Guy has GREAT hands too. Dude plucks catches out of the air one-handed and has great after the catch instincts.


I never understood why folks think he's Alfred Morris or something. Guy is a complete running back and can do everything well.


If he lands in the 2nd round I'm grabbing him and laughing all the way to the bank in standard or PPR.

See my post below yours. I'm asking for format more because of Gio than Beast Mode. My answer was still yes to Lynch, and he caught 2 receiving TD last season. Not 4, minor correction.

Before I say yes, PPR or standard?

Most likely my answer will be yes regardless of format. You're getting top-7 value in R2. He's just behind Forte and Lacy.

Im not gonna lie, i love me some Beast Mode. if he's there at the end of the first round, i wouldn't hesitate taking him then backdoor with with a Brandon Marshall, Antonio Brown, etc.

Any consideration for Lynch and Gio? Wait for a WR in R3 and R4. Deep talent pool.

You're right he caught 2.

I usually always take a top WR in either the first 2 rounds, then adjust accordingly

For my 12 team standard league my keepers are McCoy and Demaryius. Say I get one of the last couple picks and all the other top RB's that weren't kept (Lynch, Foster, Stacy, Murray, Bell and Gio) plus the top available WR's (BMarsh, Nelson, Alshon) and Julius Thomas are taken....do you go Stafford and Gronk? Gronk and Antonio Brown? Stafford and Antonio Brown?

Brown and best RB available.
 
Just watched the Fantasy Football special on ESPN, really didn't bring any new info to the table. Obviously took it with a grain of salt, but god damn... Football is back

there's nothing like waking up on Sunday morning tuning in to the ESPN Fantasy Football show to prep for the day.
 
Who would you pick between these RB's if you had to choose...

Lynch (assault case, getting older)
Foster (injuries, lots of wear and tear)
Murray (always is out for a few games a year)
Stacy (last year could have been a fluke)
Bell (Blount could take some of his carries)

Murray.
 
Do you really trust Marshawn and especially Foster this year? I think I wanna stay away from any Texans player this year to be honest. And I don't know where that assault case Marshawn is involved in might be going.

Not whole heartedly no but I trust them better than the others.

Stacy.. Hasn't proven much. Talented runner behind him. Sam.

Bell.. I actually like. Only worry is Blount

Murray.. like but injured prone

Arian.. one season with injuries. Elsewise highlyyy productive. I think he jus quit on an awful team last yr. Can't be any worse this yr. New blood with obrien should rejuvenate him

Beast Mode... Jus got his money. Prob gunna be his last productive season. Gotta show n prove to keep gettin paid. The case is troublesome but as long as he's not suspended nfl players always seem to find ways to come outta domestic stuff clean :smh:

Personally, for this season, I think I trust Bell and Murray the most. If Foster quit on them last year I don't see why he wouldn't this year if they're going to possibly be just as bad. Has he even been practicing?

gronk and brown. upside to big to pass up. your a good enuf drafter to get through it if gronk goes down.

That's my opinion as well....only thing is if I go that route early then with McCoy as my RB1 I'd need to probably roll with Gerhart, Jennings, Vereen, Trent, Sankey or Chris Johnson as my RB2.

that "assualt" case is turning out to be a non factor. Seattle has come out and said they expect nothing to come of it.

Foster nah

Bell is ok but that line sucks
