OT - Fantasy Football Start/Sit Em Thread
Finally football is back!
This thread serves the purpose of sharing fantasy advice for those tough decisions that we all face on a week-to-week basis of who to start and who we should sit.
This week is really tough for me; I had a great draft for every position other than RB.
My dilemma this week:
Need to start 2 of the 4 -
Melvin Gordon vs Det (Proj:9)
Tevin Coleman vs Phi (Proj:9)
Joseph Randle vs NYG (Proj:9)
Alfred Blue vs KC (Proj:9)
Help!

If Detroit's run defense is anywhere near what it was last year, this week may not be the best indicator, either. Please, please be true.

Drafted Evans and Shady McCoy...Damn my luck for week 1.

The Dallas Morning News projects Joseph Randle to get a majority of carries, even if he doesn't get the start versus the Giants on Sunday night. Source: The Dallas Morning News

Im with you here. Any Chicago folk with any word or information on the usage Alshon may get? He definitely seems to be playing, but there were plenty of weeks Calvin Johnson played at way less than 100% and was essentially on the field as a decoy and got few looks.
September 13th, 2015 at 9:16 AM ^
make me nervous, but I would probably go with Gordon and Randle. When in doubt, I try and play the guy who plays on the team I think will be in the red zone the most times. Out of your four, I think that's Randle and Gordon.

plus they play with the two most competent QBs among the four options.

Gordon is the #1 for sure in San Diego. Woodhead will steal some 3rd and long snaps due to his ability to catch the ball. But I'm not buying the Lions run D being as stellar as last year without Suh and Fairley. Plus Levy is out for a few games as well.
Randle will be the #1 guy for at least one game. And while they'll likely have a RB by committee approach, they have a good OL. So go with him.
Atlanta's OL is subpar, plus Coleman will be sharing carries with Devonta Freeman. And Alfred Blue is going up against a stout defense.

I drafted Tevin Coleman and that news was enough for me to bench him.

Coleman/Gordon for me. Is it PPR, or standard scoring?
Here are my decisions (PPR league):
Gordon (vs. Det) or Alfred Morris (vs. Mia)
Carson Palmer (vs. NO) or Rivers (vs. Det)
September 13th, 2015 at 9:45 AM ^
Miami has a good defense, and Suh is in the middle of that D-line now. Washington's O-line is suspect at best. Remember how the Lions knocked out RGIII in the preseason? That wasn't RGII's fault. That O-line gave him Christian Hackenburg-like protection. Gordon is going up against the D-line that lost Suh, plus no Deandre Levy.
I would go with Carson Palmer just because he has better WRs and the NO secondary is not as good as Detroit's.

Cobb is still a bit banged up and Adams was already the #2 receiver.

Rams defense has had Seattles number recently, it's why I'm starting Bradford over Wilson today.
September 13th, 2015 at 10:15 AM ^
September 13th, 2015 at 10:39 AM ^
Yeah, I didn't intend to draft Wilson, ran out of time because all my choices in that round were picked in the 4 spots before my pick so he got auto picked. Was happy to get Bradford in the 11th round and if he can stay healthy could be a top 5 QB. Though if Lockett is as good as he looked against Michigan 2 years ago and with Jimmy Graham, Wilson could put up very solid numbers this year. Just wish I had room on my bench for Lockett, I think he's going to blow up.

for $1 in an auction franhise league. I think he'll be the steal of the draft. Everyone else was like "who?". (no other mich fans in my league in Wisconsin) I drafted him solely off him torching Michigan and now there is a TON of buzz about him coming out of Seattle camp.
I'm starting Charles Johnson instead of him this week. I think that will be the right call, but i'm excited to see what Lockett turns into.
