[quote=Mattyk;836273]Grossman has the better matchup.

It's tough to bench Brady, but he's got the tougher opponent and he's working on a short week.[/quote]

I REALLY hope you started brady, lol.

sorry, but when u have an elite quarterback or runnin back, the matchups be damned. you never bench tom brady for grossman, EVER. i dont care if grossman is playing against the junior redskinettes, you cannot bench brady. EVERRRRRRRR.........

[quote=BleedBurgundy;838095]I just traded Foster for Hightower straight, as I think Tate's going to take over that job this year and Foster is going to be lucky to split equally.[/quote]

Yeah I think that hammy is gonna be a problem all year. Tate looks like he can take the job and run with it.

agree. you end up getting burned morre often than not.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Ah yes, I never was burned for taking the #1 ranked RB, but here's the secret:
Whoever was a #1 RB last year WILL NOT BE THE #1 RB the next year. I'm just glad Foster(and Rodgers) won me some Yahoo! casual leagues last year. MWAHAHAHAHAHA

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Probably my best team:

QB: Grossman
WR: Djax
WR: Santonio Holmes
WR: AJ Green
RB : McFadden
RB: McCoy
TE: Hernandez
BN: Reggie Wayne
BN: Hightower
BN: Lee Evans(dropping for Fred Davis)
BN: Sproles
BN: Mathews
BN: Jacobs
K: Rackers
D: Green Bay

I went into the draft ADAMANT about not picking a QB early. It was going to be RB, RB, WR, WR, WR for the first five picks. The result: probably my best draft ever.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

My PPR Team:

QB: Brady
WR:Greg Jennings
WR:Welker
RB: Hightower
RB: Ryan Matthews
TE: Jermichael Finley
Flex: Santonio Holmes
K: Janikowski
D: New Orleans

BN:Cam Newton
BN:Skins D
BN:Jeremy Maclin
BN: Roy Williams
BN: Ryan Grant

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Alright so I got OZ raped on my Drew Brees deal but this is my new squad

QB: Phillip Rivers, Rex Grossman
RB: Michael Turner (Brees Deal), Willis McGahee (Brees Deal), Ahmad Bradshaw, BenJarvis Green- Ellis
WR: Dwayne Bowe, Devery Henderson, Sindey Rice, Mike Thomas, Roy Williams, Antonio Brown
TE: Owen Daniels
LB: Jerod Mayo, Curtis Lofton, Jonathan Vilma
DL: Charles Johnson
DB: Tyvon Branch, Jonothan Joseph
K: Billy Cundiff

I've got to dump some of these receivers. I'm first on my leagues waiver wire so I'm trying to decide who to pick up.

The Black Dynamites are 1-1 right now !

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

K need some good damn advice:

Beanie Wells @ Seattle

or

Javid Best @ Minnesota

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

[quote=Chico23231;838386]K need some good damn advice:

Jahvid, because he's a great receiving threat too, and Arizona and seattle are both familiar with one another so you're going to see less runs, and long runs aswell.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Seattle is coughing up a 3.1 avg while Minny has a 4.0 average against the run. That said, both Ds have coughed up 3 touchdowns so far this season.

-------------------------------------------

General advice for the masses. DO NOT start any RB against San Francisco. You should have known this last year, but they are STIFLING against the run.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Wes Welker got me a crapload of points this weekend.
Makes up for the fail game DeSean Jackson had.
:Flush:

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Its wierd how Ochocinco has done zero in that offense. I stayed away from him, but i expecting a pretty decent season. Welker 16 catches was amazing.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I'm not surprised by 85. There are too many pieces in that offense and other than Welker, Brady never has a favorite target, he'll throw to anyone and everyone. We know Welker will get his catches, so with Branch, Ochocinco, Edelman, the 2 TEs, the RBBC and whomever else they throw on the field, there aren't enough catches for anyone else to be a relevant fantasy player, at least consistently.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

i am down 23 going into tonight, i have moss and witten. other guy's team is done. Who thinks I win?

Hopefully you win because Moss has 25 points.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Jahvid Best @ Dallas

or

James Starks vs Denver (Grant out, Starks will be the feature back)

opinions please...right now I lean toward Jahvid and its not a PPR league. But the Dallas D has been excellent versus the run. Denver middle of pack

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Kinda f*ckin blows that im playing Aaron Rogers in 3 outta 5 match up this week. yeah those 3 teams are gonna lose

Yeah man, Aaron Rodgers possibly just had the game of the season this week

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I had to face that Baltimore defense in one of my matchups. 32 ****ing points on Yahoo!'s default scoring system. DEFENSES ARE NOT SUPPPOSED SCORE THAT MUCH. I should have started Vick and Decker. Damnit!!!!

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

time to start trading in your leagues. if you got certain aspects of your team you need to improve, time to sell high and buy low.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I picked up Torain on waiver this week despite having lowest priority... i'm guessing the bye week scared people off.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I was going to get him too but I already have Hightower and I just think MS is going to go with whoever's hot. Too hit or miss imo.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

[quote=rbanerjee23;843874]Yeah man, Aaron Rodgers possibly just had the game of the season this week[/quote]

I got beaten by a team with Rodgers last week, he accounted for half of the total points of the team that beat me. Ridiculous.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I've been making a living off of Rogers and Welker.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I picked up Benson to get me through this bye week. Not worried about the suspension. Guys are on the bench all the time...

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Should I start Jimmy Graham against carolinas D or Dallas Clark against the chiefs awful D? Fantasy Experts say I clearly should start Dallas over Jimmy, but Jimmy had 13 points last week, while Dallas had 4 with an unproven QB.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Went 5-0 in my leagues this week. Thats right, im poppin collar.

but in my suicide pool im out due to the Giants losing. but eff it, rather see G-men lose than me win another week.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

I had a love affair with Josh Freeman this off season he was to be my dark horse that brought me to Fantasy Gold, that MFer sucks! -2 fawking points this week.

I am down 12 points with Forte going tonight the other guy has Petigraw. Tough to see a win this week.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Thank you Jahvid Best :)

For an 0-4 team, this was my superbowl LOL

Ya know I stayed up to watch the game, and I was sure Chicago was gonna put meaningless points on the board just to cause me to lose that dang game.

I woulda put 100 dollars on that when Cutler started driving.

I end up losing by .5 (we use decimals) point. thank you freeman than you for your negative fawking output.

He lost me one game in a league where I'm competitive but won me a game where I was 0-4 coming into the week. Just my luck.

Sexy Rexy did something similar to me after the Dallas game. I only needed about 15 points...he delivered only a little more than 13.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Pretty interesting Tebow has already been added in all my leagues.

Also interesting that Cam could lead fantasy scoring in his rookie year.

I thought about adding Tebow but it is a big risk, he has played one half of football who knows what this guy will do.

I probably said the same thing about Cam during the draft.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

One of the things about Tebow - In most leagues, passing TD's are 4 pts. and rushing TDs' are 6. Tebow gets a lot of goal line calls and will vulture a lot of red zone rushing TD's in addition to the occasional passing TD. Last year, in traditional scoring, he was the leading QB over the last 3 games.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Tebow has that fantasy mojo people crave for, even if he doesn't win any aesthetics contests with his play...kind of like Mike Vick.

Re: 2011 Fantasy Football Thread
 

Gotta feeling WR Greg Little could be a sleeper today against Oakland today
