OT - Fantasy Football Start/Sit Thread

Submitted by GVSUGoBlue on September 20th, 2015 at 8:12 AM

I hope everyone got the advice they were looking for last week and came out with a W. I fell behind early but Julio Jones almost single handedly won my matchup for me. This week I have another Pick 2 challenge: Deangelo Williams vs SF (projected: 11) or Amari Cooper vs Baltimore (8) or Melvin Gordon vs Cincy (7) or Tevin Coleman vs NYG (10). Who would you start? What are your fantasy decisions this week? Sorry for the formatting, posting from iPad.

Is your league a PPR league?

I picked up Williams so I'm playing him. I'm not high on Gordon.

I'm struggling between Russell Wilson vs GB and Mariota vs CLE. Mariota outperformed last week but I'm hesitant to give him the start. Thoughts?

I would give Wilson the start just because he has more experience so he's less likely to screw up

I am in the same boat as you, but mine is Cam Newton or Mariota... I hate waiting so long to take a quarterback...

Definitely Wilson. You drafted him to be your starter and he hasn't exactly given you a reason not to trust him.

With projected points it seems like a non-ppr league, so I'd roll with Coleman and D.Williams. Don't trust Gordon or Cooper to get a TD today.

Devante Adams. He had the most targets of any GB wr last week, and I'd go with Ivory because St. Louis rush def is good

Sounds like he will play I hate that it's a Monday night . I got him in a lot of leagues and I'm not sure if I should start someone like a tre mason or Chris Johnson over him just to be safe . Thoughts ?

I wouldn't do Tre Mason, he is dinged up and there are other possible options. Gurley might play and Cunningham has been good in the passing game.

Garçon is the number 1 guy this weak. Jackson is out. Watkins didn't do anything last week. I'd probably go with Garçon

I'd go with Williams. He's going to get the bulk of that carries this week as Bell is still suspended for one more game and he has looked better than McCoy.

Cooper is playing with a damaged QB against a defense that shut Denver down, and Gordon hasn't shown anything yet.

Indy is definitely weak on D, except they have a good number one corner, Vontae Davis. He totally shut down Sammy Watkins last week to the point that he was only target once the whole game.

Pick 2:

Randall Cobb (vs Seattle), Jarvis Landry (vs Jacksonville) or DeAndre Hopkins (vs Carolina)?

Thanks! I do have a flex position, but I had Tevin Coleman there. In my league, Landry, Hopkins and Coleman are all projected for very similar point totals.

I may be biased because I still have visions of Coleman running through B1G defenses.

Thanks for the help, everyone; +1 to all.
