OT - Fantasy Football Start/Sit Thread

Submitted by GVSUGoBlue on September 11th, 2016 at 8:28 AM

It's that time of the year! Fantasy football is finally back! My hard decision already happened this week. I started Demaryious Thomas and was consequently disappointed. What do you have this week?

Trying to decide between Blount and Gordon at #2 back. I feel like Blount will get more carriers with Brady being suspended but both backs probably aren't going to be putting up much yardage given both are playing stout rushing defenses. Plus Gordon is yet to score a TD as a pro.

Gordon..Rivers will move the ball and Gordon is going to be the man with less Woodhead this year..I don't trust Gorropolo with no Gronk they may not get in the redzone for Blount

AZ will not yield many rushing yards tonight. That game could get ugly fast.

I have Zac Ertz and Coby Fleener at TE - I think I'll give the nod to Fleener. But who should I use as flex? Ertz, Michael Thomas, or Darren Sproles?

Go with Thomas as he's the starter this week and they're playing the Raiders defense.

Wentz may need a bailout or 10, and Ertz will be there for him.

PPR league Rawls or Riddick? Not sure if Rawls is going to play a significant role today.

I have both on my bench this week on one of my teams. But if I had to choose one, I would play Riddick, especially in a PPR league.

That's though. Normally Rivers, but chiefs are a tough matchup. No one going against a lesser defense still available?

Riddick, Yeldon, or C. West? West has ware, riddick has Abdullah, and yeldon has Ivory. What to do what to do.

Assuming it's a PPR league. Meanwhile, my similar question is Yeldon vs. Ivory.

I'd roll with Ivory. He'll get the goal line touches and should be a safe bet for 70 yards.

I like Dalton, TEN wants to run, run, run. Mariota may run a bit, but I think Dalton gets a little more production.

I'd go with Gordon. He's being primed for success this year. Going to have every chance to be the lead dog in SD. Michael Thomas is my pick, though Sproles is intriguing. Ppr - Riddick. Highest scoring game in the league is likely. Rivers, trust your talent. I like Flacco to have a good season under Trestman, though his WR may limit him. Riddick again. Yeldon and Ivory... Flip a coin. Good luck to all!

I'd go with Michael. He's got something to prove today with Rawls limited and a chance to take the starting spot.

In this case as I don't think Rawls is going to play much so Michael should be the lead back today.

Golden Tate or Jordan Matthews? Tate is listed as questionable and has a better matchup than Matthews, but I thought Matthews was going to be Phillys #1 WR. Help!
