I picked him up with my 14th round pick,is paying off already considering I have Charles also..... Better defense for this weekend guys Patriots v Raiders or Rams V Dallas???
New England. They've allowed the 4th fewest yards through two weeks. Oakland has gained the second least.

My lineup so far. Decided to start Sproles since Torrey Smith wasn't doing me any favors. WIth the exception of Megatron, my WR's are pretty poverty, what with Fitz, Coleston and Torrey not doing me any favors. Any good waiver pickup suggestions?
Sproles is looking like a must-start in the Flex weekly through two games. Torrey has 10 targets the whole season, which makes no sense after Flacco's comments. Cleveland's personnel in the secondary is strong, despite Smith catching 12 balls for 163 yards in two games vs. Browns last season.

Who's available in FA?

What would you guys bid for Geno Smith and Kirk Cousins in a 6pt pass TD league where QBs are flex-able?

I know it's gonna be a feeding frenzy for Cousins but I don't think too many people (if anyone) will go after Smith. I have $180 remaining in my budget. 80 of them are fake money, the rest are real money.

Also having a hard time deciding who to drop. ESPN has Jordan Reed and Jamaal Charles as questionable instead of out, so I can't put them on IR and am gonna be forced to drop someone that I don't want to :smh: :smh:. I need the QB depth though. Gotta decide between Toby Gerhard, Terrance West, and Andrew Hawkins.
I stashed Cousins in two NT leagues. Felt he was the better fit for Gruden's style, injury to RG3 or not.

I wouldn't drop West, Gerhart, or "Baby Hawk" for Geno. I'd put in a claim to drop Hawkins for Cousins though. A fair wager is just over a third of your fake money budget. I'm suggesting a $30 bid, $40 if your starting QB is not consistent or starter worthy.

Someone offered me Stacy and Hyde for peterson. Should I take it? I'm not sure if ap will play the whole season but Im not a fan of Stacy and stayed away from him in every league

Other RBs right now are gore, sproles, Jeremy hill, and bishop sankey
No deal. Adrian Peterson is reinstated and active for Week 3. The legal battle could take a while, since there is little to no precedence regarding Peterson's case and alleged claims of child abuse.

Stacy had a good Week 2 against Tampa. But his YPC leaves more to be desired, and Fisher is fickle with RB. Mason and Cunningham are pushing Stacy.

Hyde has long-term value, probably SF's starter in 2015. But he's not unseating Gore just yet, this early in the season.

I have the #2 waiver priority this week, chances are I get my top claim. Question is, what position/priority would you guys target first?

2 qb/2 rb/ 2 wr/ 1 flex IDP league

QB's - Cam, Dalton

RB's - Lacy, D. Martin, T. West, T. Gerhart, B. Rainey

WR's - Antonio Brown, Cobb, Maclin, Crabtree, K. Wright, Wheaton (dropping him this week)

Thoughts on 1st waiver move - Drop Wheaton for Kniles Davis? or Lamar Miller? or Kirk Cousins? I feel like Davis could have a big, surprise year if Charles is hobbled throughout the season.
Thoughts on then dropping T. West for 1 of those guys if I can get my hands on them?
West and Wheaton should be kept. I prefer Miller to Rainey, who is purely a handcuff in a crowded Tampa backfield with an OC that utilizes RBBC.

Knile Davis is inefficient with his carries, historically. And not a great weapon with pass-catching. Charles is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, annoying, I know. But Davis' worth is tied to Charles not recovering swiftly.

I would drop Dalton for Cousins secondarily.

Who to drop for knile Davis, Mathews or Ingram? Or neither...
I'd say neither, but if you really want Davis, drop him for Ingram. Not Ry Mathews.

Should i drop Hakeem Nicks for Watkins or Knile Davis?
I would for Watkins, especially in a keeper league. Nicks is in a crowded receiving corps. Only one football to go around.
 
I need an RB is Ridley worth a cheap pick up? Possible start this week ? My other RB 's are Charles,Martin,and Ingram all injured in some way or another...

Also better D for the week St.Louis or Patriots??
Yes, absolutely scoop Ridley. He's working his way out of Bill's doghouse. Healthy workload vs. Minny. Raiders have allowed 400 rushing yards in two games.
 
Thoughts on whether to start Cutler @NYJ or Peyton @SEA? And also, Michael Floyd vs. SF or Bernard Pierce @CLE as my flex? Thanks in advance. New to all of this.

Personally I would go with Peyton and Floyd. Who are your other starters at RB?

Yeah, I know I should probably stick with the big guns, but that Seattle D has got me shook.

Btw, what do the green and red colors for the opponents mean?

Thoughts on Ridley? He's on the waiver wire and it seems like he's in the good graces of that coach....
 
Resulting from the RG3 injury,

decided to trade:

Torrey Smith + Crabtree

for

CAM + Anquan


Good trade?

Was thinking of just picking up Romo or Cousins from waiver, but went through with trade.

imho,

Julius Thomas is worth more than injury prone ellington.

if looking for a RB, i'd put thomas' value at a low RB1 status-- Alfred Morris, LeVeon Bell, etc (ellington is in the same tier, but im just not personally high on him (injuries, small bodied).

It's a tough call,so far Seattle has gave up more yards and points than the Jets though..As for the colors no clue lol

I'm picking him up this week,the rest of my RB's are either injured or Questionable

No clue why my reply showed up in the quotes....

Steve Smith
Mike Wallace
Sammy Watkins
Golden Tate
T.Y. Hilton

Just a few of the names I saw so far. So far, I'm either going for Wallace or Watkins.

*EDIT* Quoted the wrong post.

Cutler's matchup is much more favorable, given the weakness of NYJ's corners. But how can you sit Peyton? 6 TD and no INT in the first two games of '14. Weapons galore. Revenge on his mind, even at Seattle. If Phil Rivers can find a way to exploit Seattle, albeit in a road game for the Seahawks, so can Manning.

I'm only starting Floyd if Palmer is starting against SF. If it's Stanton at QB, Pierce starts. Floyd only caught 1/19 with Stanton.

Need to pick 2 to start Non PPR.

1. Victor Cruz
2. Zac Stacy
3. Darren Sproles
4. Andre Ellington
5. Jeremy Maclin

This my team as of now
View media item 1183318
I'd seriously consider sitting Bell. He's been making his living through pass-catching, Carolina has only allowed 172 yards on the ground through two games.

I'd rank it Stacy, Sproles, Maclin, Cruz, Ellington. SF has a stiff run D and Dwyer is taking some carries from the ever-fragile Ellington. Cruz is having issues with drops and Eli adapting to McAdoo's new offense. Maclin has 22 targets through two weeks. Sproles has to start with the quick impact he's experiencing in Chip's offense. Although Week 2's performance is not likely every Sunday.

Julius Thomas is worth more than injury prone ellington.

Absolutely do not offer Orange Julius for Andre Ellington. Thomas is the second best TE in football. Even if you have Jimmy, Orange Julius should command a RB1. Someone like Le'Veon Bell or Montee Ball.

Thoughts on Ridley? He's on the waiver wire and it seems like he's in the good graces of that coach....
Scoop him ASAP. Healthy amount of carries Week 2. Earning Bill's trust back if he continues protecting the football. White and Vereen seem less of a threat now than in preseason.

Plug-and-play Week 3. Ridley is going to run over Oakland. Worst run D in the league.

Resulting from the RG3 injury,

decided to trade:

Torrey Smith + Crabtree

for

CAM + Anquan

Newton and Q side is winning. Cam's running ability and rush TD are second to none in the league. KB seems like a legitimate weapon, and Olsen is his security blanket. Crabby is slightly better than Boldin, but the drop-off is far less when compared to Torrey and Newton.

champcruthik champcruthik bruh trade me kirk pls

YOU HAVE PEYTON!!!!
Doesn't mean I could give Cousins away for free. Had the foresight to draft him and stash with a roster spot.

I think you'll enjoy his production with Gruden. Thanks for V-Jax.

Steve Smith
Mike Wallace
Sammy Watkins
Golden Tate
T.Y. Hilton

Just a few of the names I saw so far. So far, I'm either going for Wallace or Watkins.
I'd rank it in order of priority for the season: Hilton, Wallace, Smitty, Tate, Watkins.
