[timelessflight]

Rudolph

Give him a spin. Hope for a red-zone TD. He doesn't offer much for receptions or yardage.

D-Jax, Reggie, Tate, Smitty in that order.

Lacy and Ellington if you're asking to pick two starting RB. Hill's role is still somewhat undefined.

yea thats why im kinda meh on playing Rudolph :\

i knew i should have drafted Olsen

Picked Rudolph over Olsen?

It happens, dude. I picked Gio Gonzalez in a baseball league far too early. Cost me the entire season, among other factors.

 

[daruma]

looking at my list, my RB is really weak, what's a good trade for Gronk? I have gronk and julius thomas.

Gronk should get you a Gio or Ball type RB1 at the minimum.

 

[eyedea]

carlos hyde or sammy watkins as an upside stash? other rostered  RBS: giovani, ball, deangelo williams, chris johnson, other rostered WRs: gordon, welker, ty hilton, desean, cruz, CJ81

 

[nelson999]

Newton

Murray

Lynch

Green

Fitzgerald

J.Cameron

A. Morris

Edelman

Rivers

Gerhart

Steven Jackson

Jeffrey

Nicks

T.Smith

Gates

Hyde for this season unless you plan to keep Sammy going into 2015. Watkins' value is decreased by QB play and the rookie learning curve at receiver. He's a rich man's Mike Wallace in some ways. Hyde may supplant Gore as the starter by season's end. Runs hard, blocks well.

Gates first. Nicks or S-Jax after that.

ehh idk. Cameron might not play this week and Gates actually had a better game than him in Week 1

 

[champcruthik]

ehh idk. Cameron might not play this week and Gates actually had a better game than him in Week 1

I can understand the concern injury-wise. Cameron's sprained his shoulder a second time, MRI shows no structural damage. He's day-to-day, could miss Week 2 against the Saints. But Gates is battling his own hammy knock. Cameron is square in his prime at 26 and Gates is fading. Gates won't outperform Cameron healthy often this season.

 

[tireless drive]

WEEK 2 Start em or Sit em
Torrey vs Steelers or Roddy vs Bengals

QB1: Aaron Rodgers
Wr1: Alshon Jeffrey
WR2: Pierre Garcon
RB1: Jamal Charles
RB2: Chris Johnson
TE1: Jason Witten
Flex: Torrey Smith
K: Phil Dawson
DEF: Tampa Bay


Bench:

Roddy White
Chris Ivory
Mike Evans

Bishop Sankey
Ladarius Green
Markus Wheaton

Any advice is appreciated.

Very true. And against against the Seahawks this week i probably shouldn't use Gates anyway, even if Cameron is hurt

Ivory starts as my RB2 over CJ2K.

Roddy says his knee is fine, but I'm a slight Torrey lean. This isn't the Steelers defense of old, yards can be gained and points can be scored.

Scratch that, you have to consider sitting Jeffery because of injury and matchup. Garcon WR1, Roddy WR2, Torrey Flex.

 

[yankeephan87x]

Start Steve Smith tonight or Pierre Garcon Sunday?

 

[potatoglasses]

if Roddy White doesn't play.. Should I play Donnie Avery or Delanie Walker as my Flex... Or maybe pick someone up...

 

[champcruthik]

Start Steve Smith tonight or Pierre Garcon Sunday?

Garcon, comfortably. 12 targets against Houston, he's getting the ball a lot this season by design from Gruden.

if Roddy White doesn't play.. Should I play Donnie Avery or Delanie Walker as my Flex... Or maybe pick someone up...

Walker. Who can you drop Avery for?

Roddy says his knee is fine though, he's likely playing and starting.

Thanks for the analysis Champ

Thanks for the analysis Champ

If Roddy can't go, you can late-flip Jeffery. ATL is the 1 PM game, Chicago plays Sunday night.

Walker. Who can you drop Avery for?

Roddy says his knee is fine though, he's likely playing and starting.

Options include Steve Smith, Terrance Williams, and Malcolm Floyd...

I would scoop Williams, Smitty, Floyd in that order.

 

[bravo]

Gresham, Cook or Ebron?  Yes I know, Damn Jordan Reed!!

 

[champcruthik]

Gresham, Cook or Ebron?  Yes I know, Damn Jordan Reed!!

Gresham. Eifert is on short-term IR, can't play in a game for 8 weeks. Those 5 targets he got Week 1 are going to double.
