Ivory. Guaranteed touches, not a bad matchup (though as far as I'm concerned he's matchup proof as long as he gets the work, which he should - Powell isn't going to steal many carries from him). On the Eagles, Murray and Mathews are capable of receiving passes, though Sproles is a smaller and quicker runner and usually will be the go-to guy for passing downs work... but you can't count on it.
And hey, Ivory did have a reception last week so you got a nifty extra point in PPR from him.

Sproles got more then his normal workload week 1. I expect it to be toned down a little but still useful. But easily I go with a clear front runner because he should get more chances to get points.
I say that even tho I have Sproles on my bench this week in favor of sankey. But my situation is a push, yours is more clear.

Tate. Not a great matchup against Vikings (and it's another road game) and it doesn't look like he's 100% yet.
EDIT: Above is proof I know nothing

For kicks, I might do the Sunday 8 PM/ Monday night game at draft kings. Not sure if I'll do 50/50 or one of the higher risk/reward games.
I figure that with 4 teams it can be some easier research since I'm a newbie.

Pretty sure my season is done, with Dez out 10-12 weeks and who knows when Ellington will come back. Though, I did pick up David Johnson and am glad I started him.
Brady outscored Palmer in my league, and the guy who had them both (he got Brady super late, as we did out draft really early because of a few assholes), had Brady on the bench.
I am just hoping my WRs aren't worthless next week. Keenan Allen had less than 1 fucking point for me. And my best RB was David Johnson... I need 35 points out of Wilson to win. =(

LOL
I made a stacked team on Draft Kings and had to fill in with a shitty Flex. SoI took my RB1 (Lynch) and tossed his backup into the flex spot (Jackson) figuring that he;d get some touches when Lynch was resting. And Lynch gets hurt. LOL! Only used this lineup on a bunch of double and triple ups but it should bring me closer to break even on draft kings this week.

I am now convinced I don't know what I'm doing in FF. Like, at all.
2nd week in a row I've left a 30+ point scorer on my bench. Hyde week1, Allen Robinson week 2.
And Sam Bradford is like a pair of cement shoes for my team. What a horrible choice that was. I'm already hearing people say 'Start Sanchez!' omfg

I might break even on my first week at Draft Kings! I did some picks for the Sunday Night/Monday night games and did very well. I picked "ringers" and filled in with some gambles that paid off.
Well, chose Rodgers over Brady. Not a great move, but I got lucky that my ATOT Auction League opponent put up a stinker (unless Andre Johnson goes nuts and gets 66 points tonight).

Going "no RB strategy" isn't any guarantee either. If you drafted Dez and Jordy your season might already be over. Hell, unless if in the first two rounds you picked Charles, Gronk, Brown, Julio, or Forte you're probably looking for a noose right now.

Yep, in my 14 man I've already lost Dez/Romo and Delanie (could miss another game). Luckily I always draft a good backup QB in 6pt TD leagues so still have Rivers but his tough weeks are going to be adventurous. Team is on life support with Julio carrying it. Will probably have to trade for a RB since Blount did absolutely nothing this week. Another plus is that full point PPR means you are a bit more insulated from injuries since passing target trends will develop more in the next couple of weeks.
On the plus side in my other leagues I picked up Denver and started them this week, the metrics are pointing to a top 3 defense this year and they are somewhat matchup proof at full strength. Scary defense.

Did you cash? Your lineup was similar to mine and somehow I did even after the duds from Hyde and AA. Must have been a lot of other guys heavily invested in Colts players to make that happen.
