I think every running back on all 4 of my teams got injured today.

 

[tfinch2]

I flipped a coin for starting Fitzgerald vs Garcon. Fitz is usually a no brainer, but his hamstring had me worried. I ended up starting him anyway and Garcon goes off. Oh well, another loss this week.

Garçon is a wr1 every week. Fitz hurt me so I wonder if the poster above listened to me on playing somebody over fitz.

Garçon is a stud.

Not familiar with Jackson (or any Chargers player really), but that seems like you're trading a lot away. Megatron is Megatron, and T-Rich takes his licks and keeps on ticking. Shady is great, but I don't know if he can sustain all season. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my two cents.

I got Shady in the trade! We'll have to see how he does, + I really like the Eagles (hometown team). T-Rich won't do as well because he's injury prone, he had an injury almost every week of 2012. Also, Lauvao (RG) still isn't 100% and won't be for a couple more weeks, even if he starts over Cousins (horrible). Additionally, Norv wasn't even using T-Rich in 3rd downs in week 1 which had everyone baffled, I think he was using him a little more today but to no avail. I just don't get a good vibe with the whole T-Rich situation.

Yup, I had MGD and Ray Rice in 2 different leagues. Luckily I have very good depth in the MGD league, but only Moreno in the Rice league. Frankly, I'd take Moreno over Rice at this point considering Rice hasn't done anything over projected and Moreno's been a man on a mission so Denver is rewarding his great blocking with touches + targets.

 

[AmdEmAll]

Eddy Lacy getting injured lost it for me today

 

[vi edit]

Should have went with my gut and played Rivers instead of Kaep.

Rivers outscored him this week by almost 30 points. Like I thought he would. Also lost one matchup by a point playing Mike Williams over Decker. Damn.

I need a RB bad. Mendenhall for my James Jones, am i giving up too much?

I wanted to offer James Jones and Eddie Royal for Mcfadden and Owen Daniels... thoughts on this.

I'm stacked at WR and weak on RB. Garcon,Fitz, Dez. James jones. Eddie Royal. Greg jennings. But only have J. Charles, L Miller, Monte ball, C ivory. Joique Bell.


Any mid-range RB you guys can think of i should make a push for. I really would like to get rid of James jones and Eddie Royal for someone.

Who else do you have at WR? Jones went off yesterday and will do well with Rodgers throwing the football.

Grab a Giants RB not named Wilson
Starks in case Lacy is out for a bit (he sucked hard in the past so be careful)
D. Richardson is struggling in St. Louis, keep an eye on Pead
S. Jackson is only doing ok in Atlanta, keep an eye on Snelling, his backup
D. Murray is only doing ok in Dallas, keep an eye on his backup

What else is available on the WW for Rb and WR?

I went 4-0 this week after going 1-2 (joined a league on Thursday night during the game).

 

[soulcougher73]

Think im done with David Wilson and MJD and T. Richardson..and any RB pretty much Year of the receiver is upon us i think

 

[spidey07]

David Wilson was my 2nd overall pick. That is KILLING me. Ben Tate sitting on my bench with 10 points, in my league he scored more than Foster.

I started a starting RB over two WRs who blew it up this week in my flex.. May never do that again.

 

[crownjules]

In regards to Trent Richardson, Josh Gordon is back from his suspension next week. That means CLE will have something of a receiving threat for Ds to honor and may open up his running game a bit more.

SJax had a stellar first week and a decent second week cut short by injury. The only worry is if his thigh injury is anything significant.

 

[tHa ShIzNiT]

Trent hasn't cost me any games yet, but he has severely underwhelmed. I was super high on him coming into the year too. He's had tough matchups though. I'll continue to trot him out there.

I went 4-0 this week after going 1-2 (joined a league on Thursday night during the game).

I listed my WR in the post. But here it is again.

Dez
Fitz
Garcon
James Jones.
Greg Jennings
Eddie Royal.


I start 3. So in normal cases Jones wont get the start unless i put him in the flex. Royal is the hot item this week and i'm trying to sell him high.

Mendinhall seems to be solid. He isn't a RBBC so thats always a plus. In a PPR league, all i really want out of my RB2 is 100 total yards and maybe 4 catches or a score. so roughly 14-15 points.

I got shot down for Gore, guess james jones isn't enough. I didn't care for him but i needed someone who gets touches.

Sadly all those guys listed have been picking up in my 12 man. Minus Starks...

 

[brainhulk]

Woot, played garcon instead of fitz. I heart garbage time

I would want more than Mendenhall for Jones. You are loaded at WR. Try shopping him around.

Also look for Belial Powell on the WW.

Powell was gone. I had ivory but never thought of Powell. When I did it was too late.

My backs are
Charles.
Montes ball
Ivory
Lamar Miller
J bell. Lions.

Week 2 worked for me with miller/Charles and bell as my flex. However I didn't play Jones or royal. Still won but mad I could of had +50 more points.

Charles is good.
Ball is so-so and I bet Moreno is gone.
Ivory is so-so and Powell is gone.
Miller should only get better. He is better than Thomas and I keep hearing the Browns front seven (their first game) is pretty good. The Browns shut down Baltimore but could not win.
bell should see plenty of snaps as Bush has yet to show he can handle an entire workload for the season and he can catch really good.

If you want a bigger upgrade I would shop around Jones + Miller / Bell to see what you can get out of a bigger upgrade than Mendenhall. The upside to Mendenhall is that he is showing he is worth picking up for FF as he is producing on a team that is able to move the ball. Be aware that three games he should have awful games and those are two against Seattle and one against San Francisco (week 17 as well, but FF is usually over by then). Arizona also plays against Carolina (shut down Lynch), Houston (solid run D), St. Louis just shut down Atlanta's run game and TN (Arizona does NOT have the O Line that Houston has for running the ball). You are looking at possibly seven bad games.

St Louis (week 14)
TN (week 15)
Seattle (week 16)

You needed to draft better my friend. Jamaal Charles is a fine #1 and after that you have scrubs

He drafted fine. He drafted high WR instead of RB which may hurt him. I drafted high WR in three of my four leagues I am in and struggle at RB#2 yet I won by over 30 points in each league.

Miller may yet shine and Bell has good hands waiting for Bush to drop for a few games.

Agreed. I'm holding onto miller and Bell. Miller is likely going to be my starting RB2 over David Wilson. Wilson goes on the bench until he does something....anything. What a complete bust that was.

I KNOW better than to draft a giants RB and I screwed myself yet again. I would have won this week if he did anything a RB2 is supposed to do.

 

[ghost recon88]

OK Trent Richardson, I see you dropping a goose egg every week and losing the game for me. Oh, and same goes for you Mike Williams (TB).

I expect him and Spiller to not live up to where they were drafted at. Spiller did decent this week. There was no way I was drafting Richardson as high as he was. If I saw either in round 2 of a draft around 15-20 then sure. Either in the top 10 was an automatic pass.
