Is this the official 2013 Fantasy Football thread?

Thoughts on my other decisions?

Wilson since JAX is a mess.
Rice for the same reason.
Royal since he seems to be one of Rivers go to guys and, as I said in my post, I'd adopt a wait and see on Gordon.

Breaking News, Brian Hoyer will be starting for the Cleveland Browns. Pick him up asap

 

[Gunslinger08]

Need to pick a W/R flex: Daryl Richardson, T.Y. Hilton, Josh Gordon, or Stevie Johnson.

 

[T2urtle]

Anyone this David Wilson is worth a wavier pickup. Someone just dropped him last night.

I think he is still the starting rb regaurdless of fumbles.

If you have a spare spot on your bench I would

If you've got space absolutely. I still think he will do something. He was a round 2 back and you see what happens to rbs.

Can't believe somebody just dropped him.

 

[slayer202]

pick him up, no ifs. your last bench guy is not better than wilson unless you have a stacked team in an 8 team league

 

[T2urtle]

well it looks like its going to be C. Ivory for Wilson if anything. I see some light in Montee Ball.

Good way of putting it. He still has a ton of upside and high RB2 potential. I don't know what they're doing with him, he's got a ton of talent but he's not on the field all that often.

Unless it's that damn RB by committee the giants use.

Rice for the same reason.
Royal since he seems to be one of Rivers go to guys and, as I said in my post, I'd adopt a wait and see on Gordon.

My worry with Wilson is that Seattle will jump to an early lead and not even bother passing. Remember when they blew out Arizona 58-0 last year? Wilson only attempted 13 passes the whole game, throwing a single TD and had less than 10 fantasy points.

That worry further extends to all Seattle WRs. Lynch could be a beast though, in that game he had 3 TDs (and the defense had 2).

Definitely prefer Royal over Gordon. Even if Royal doesn't catch multiple TDs, he's been getting red zone looks and seems to have a rapport with a much-improved Philip Rivers. Gordon is on his first week back with a third-string QB throwing to him.

Need to pick a W/R flex: Daryl Richardson, T.Y. Hilton, Josh Gordon, or Stevie Johnson.

Don't like Gordon, Hilton is against the SF defense, so not either of those. Stevie has had success against the Jets despite their pretty good pass defense. But I think I'd go with Richardson against the Cowboys.

Absolutely. I don't think you can start him until he shows sign of improvement - bench him and accept that you will probably miss out on one breakout game, after which you will have a starting RB for the rest of the year.

The man above knows his stuff. I agree about wilson but he is a wildcard.

 

[SP33Demon]

well it looks like its going to be C. Ivory for Wilson if anything. I see some light in Montee Ball.

Regarding Ball, since offensive lineman Clady went down, they're forecasting Moreno to be on the field even more now for pass protection. I wouldn't even bother with Ball at this point; I'd even take Ivory over him. However, Ball could see some garbage time points if Denver blows out Oakland early. Ivory seems to be a bust with Bilal Powell scooping up the points so it's up to you.

Wilson, I'd take him over either of those guys, totally agree.

Yea, overall i'm really disappointed in BOTH those guys. I really was banking on Ball, Ivory or Lamar Miller coming up big. But the dam RBBC and the fact that really aren't that great is kicking me.

Gordon is the best of the bunch and they are starting Hoyer over Campbell solely to throw it to him, but starting him is risky. T.Y. is the safer bet. He's the clear #2 now and Luck loves him. Gordon in a couple weeks tho..... I'm excited

Coby Fleener fantasy value up after Dwayne Allen goes to season ending IR

 

[MisterJackson]

Well, I just talked the gf into picking up DeAndre Hopkins. Mainly because if she didn't, I was going to be too tempted to drop Boldin for him. I know Boldin's the safer long term bet, but I NEED a blowout week since I'm sitting at 0-2 so far this season

 

[AMDZen]

Send Bernard Pierce, Bal RB from Bench to LPM
Send Eddie Royal, SD WR from Bench to LPM
Receive Daryl Richardson, StL RB from LPM to Bench
Receive Le'Veon Bell, Pit RB from LPM to Bench

Should I do this? I picked up Eddie Royal but I don't really need him. I have B Marsh, Jordy Nelson and Pierre Garcon along with James Jones. I think Le'Veon could be a monster when he comes back probably week 6

Try and trade him

I have a small crisis... and trying to understand if Yahoo was at fault here.

I had one player left to go for MNF. Opponents entire team was finished playing. All I needed was 5 points to win. Monday at 1pm, I dropped a defensive player (Michael Johnson) and picked up Ryan Clark.

Ryan Clark was a Free Agent, and under the Transactions page it showed Johnson as dropped and Clark as added.

On my roster, Johnson still showed as playing that night. I refreshed the page, logged out, logged back in, same thing. If I went to the Week 3 matchup, it showed Clark on my roster and Johnson was gone.

What the heck could of happened? Yahoo glitch? Someone obscure rule or setting I'm not aware of? I've always been able to pick up players and have them show up immediately (unless of course they were on Waivers).

Edit: Johnson ended up playing (since I couldn't switch him) and ended up getting hurt and getting me only 2 points, so I lost. Clark, got 6+ points which would of won it for me.

Any player added after the start of the Sunday games is only available for the next week. This is standard with Yahoo and maybe ESPN leagues. Your team is 'locked' for the week when the Sunday games start. You can still drop/add bench players, but as you found out they only show on your team starting the next week.

 

[MisterJackson]

Try and trade him

Which one, Boldin?

 

[Adrenaline]

well it looks like its going to be C. Ivory for Wilson if anything. I see some light in Montee Ball.

Ball can't pass protect very well at this point. I do not see Peyton wanting to play with him for many snaps.

 

[Adrenaline]

Send Bernard Pierce, Bal RB from Bench to LPM
Send Eddie Royal, SD WR from Bench to LPM
Receive Daryl Richardson, StL RB from LPM to Bench
Receive Le'Veon Bell, Pit RB from LPM to Bench

It is the Steelers, their offense looks like crap. Their best offensive lineman is done for the year.

Pierce should start this weekend and if they try to get Rice healed up, he may start another game.

 

[Adrenaline]

Picked up james stark on waivers, someone offered me Marlon Brown for starks this morning. Thoughts? I was thinking no.

Starks is garbage until he proves otherwise against someone worth a darn. He did crap last year and the year before when he was expected to do something. I know, because I had him. Washington has an awful defense. That is the ONLY reason he did well. I think it is like an NFL running back running against a peewee league team.

 

[Adrenaline]

Eddie Royal got taken before me on the waivers but I still need to drop Shonn Greene. Who would you pick from this list Flex list? Brent Celek seems to have the most change in ownership this week. Flex can hold RB/WR/TE

given this current team?

Snelling is the goal line back and Rodgers is the more downs back for Atlanta as Steven Jackson will be out for up to 4 weeks. Douglas is the WR#3 for the Falcons but White is not feeling good. Atlanta may just air it out until Jackson comes back.

 

[benzylic]

Ended up trading Starks for Russell Wilson. The guy needed a running back bad. he had BJGE, Stephen jackson, and MJD and he had peyton, Schaub and Wilson on his roster so I figured he would take the trade.
