Yeah, the only league I'm in this year is PPR and Ingram is leading my pack.

I think C Mike will prove to be a good RB for Dallas, I just don't know how good he will be in fantasy. He is a hell of an athlete and just wasn't going to get use in Seattle. Him getting first team reps at practice hopefully means he will get some game time to make good on his chance to shine and I'm hoping to gamble. Though, I dropped Victor Cruz for him, so my gambles don't always work out lol.

Saw some of that game. When miller was running he was decent.

But when ur down in the 4th, u simply don't run the ball.

I'm in 5th place in one of my draft kings lineups against several hundred people. The first place entry has luck in at QB. Imagine if he had a QB that was actually playing. These is a 1 pm games only league.

I am just happy Keenan Allen isn't a no show this game. He has been amazing feast or total famine this season.

Hah, started Devonta J.Hill and Ivory. To first place I go, now just need to improve on the 12 and 14 man leagues.

Thoughts on Beckham for ROS in Ppr.

Guy wants to dump him... I see a great buy low. CJ spiller/John Brown for him.

That would hurt my RB situation a little but I would take it.

Regardless of other RB's, I'd do that in a heartbeat. Manning gives Beckham as much time as he needs to try and get open. He's the #1 and #2 option on each play....

Thoughts on playing Hillman over Anderson this week?

untill you see CJA actually do something, he has to be on your bench. Period.

2 WR spots and 1 flex to fill. Cobb is a gimme, but all the rest seem to be interchangeble week to week. Non-PPR. Thoughts?

Randall Cobb - WR
Allen Robinson - WR
Golden Tate - Flex
Allen Hurns
Duke Johnson Jr

Bolded is who i currently have in the spots.

An inconsistent DET offense with lots of injuries playing the Cards seems like a good one to avoid. I'd rather take my chances with Hurns against the crappy Bucs. Hurns has better stats than Golden Tate this year and I'd argue that Bortles is the better QB than Stafford this year.

1. Is Arian Foster finally a starter this week vs. Indianapolis?

2. Is Antonio Gates worth picking up and starting as a bye-week replacement? His first game this season after serving a suspension. Ladarius Green has played well in Gates' absence.

Other TE options:
Jordan Reed (WAS) at ATL
Owen Daniels (DEN) at OAK
Gary Barnidge (CLE) at BAL

1. Probably, but he still doesn't seem 100%.
2. Yes, Rivers will start giving him targets immediately.
3A. Reed NO, hurt with another concussion
3B. Daniels Meh, not looking great so far and PFM is looking done
3C. Barnridge OK, small sample size in effect and plays for the Browns but looks like the real deal. Smoke 'em while you got 'em with guys like this and be prepared to switch him out if performance reverts to mean.

The Owen Daniels TE play is strictly a one week move against that atrocious Raiders TE coverage, definitely some upside there. I'd be fine starting Gates this week too if he was available, but he's more of a buy and hold investment.

I have room on my roster so I picked up Owen Daniels and Antonio Gates. Now who to start? Probably Gates?

Stevie Johnson has a calf injury, so I'd roll with Gates. Coming back from suspension and not injury so he could get a few targets more. Rivers likes to spread the ball, though.

So I have a pretty dire situation at RB this week with AP and Miller on bye. PPR league.

I'm going to start Morris and need to pick one more:

Charles Sims v. JAX [20th-ranked D against run]
Booby Dixon @ TEN [5th]
Antonio Andrews v. BUF [7th]
Theo Riddick v AZ [15th]
Chris Thompson @ ATL [31st]

Currently have Sims in the RB2 slot.

Neither Andre Ellington nor Chris Johnson are owned in my league right now. I have space to pick only one of them up, any advice?

If you need someone for this week, Chris Johnson. If you need someone for the rest of the season, Ellington.

Miller is available... not sure if I should bother.

I already have elington and Victor Cruz eating up my bench.

drop one of them and grab miller. he's got a better chance at producing than those other two imo
