Fantasy MVP, breakout player, bust?

would you start edelmen or woodhead week 1?

Honey Badger (coming off a torn ACL now as well) was the best slot CB in the league last year but I'd still have to go Edelman

I know a lot changes year to year in the NFL but Woodhead/Chargers two games vs KC last year were just atrocious. His floor is probably much lower.

Both bad matchups but I'd say go with the higher floor in Edelman.

 

[PatsFan1283]

In real people it ended up being trading obj for cooks and Nelson

hmm

Sounds like a solid deal for you value wise.

Not sure on Jordy though. 31 coming off torn ACL...Be interesting to see if he returns to pre-ACL levels.

FF be a lot easier if you knew who had the premium HGH connections.

Good call on woodhead games against KC. just looked them up and he had 6 fantasy points total between the two. yikes. edelmen it is

For the love of god I hope you win both leagues.
You probably put more effort in this then the Chargers GM puts out for his real football team.

 

[CHOPTALK]

Sims, Benjamin, fuller, Shephard are all lottery type guys imo. In Sims case, he will be ppr monster if Martin goes down

those 3 wr I mention could all be huge if the #1 WR on their teams got hurt

I have a feeling the new coach at Tampa gonna end up liking sims more by week 6 anyway . I know he was already the OC last season but he loves sims

 

[HarryCaray]

Don't know how bold this is now after his preseason, but I see gostkowski finally coming off his thrown this season. Something is messed up in that guys head since the playoffs last year.

Are you seriously trying to talk strategy at the kicker position?

 

[ERockMoney]

Ended up with the following...

QB: Rodgers, Osweiler
RB: Bell, Forte, Ware, Crowell, Booker
WR: Cooper, K Benjamin, D Jackson, Fuller, V Jackson, T Benjamin
TE: Barnidge

lol

I'm taking it so seriously this year for one main reason


i hate to lose in anything and got absolutely schooled last year by these guys in the high dollar ppr league. it was a long miserable season. i think i lost my first 5 or 6 games. I've been thinking about that for a year now and waiting for my chance at revenge

The money is nice for a 500 entry fee but really I just want to beat them.

 

[JustinCruise]

Drafted my other team tonight. Picked 10th. I liked this team a lot, but they ranked me horrible. I'm projected to finish 11th...

Starters

Tyrod Taylor
Leveon Bell (D williams will fill in for first 3 weeks)
Brandon Marshall
Sammy Watkins
Julian Edelmen
Coby Fleener
Dan Bailey
Bengals D



On the bench

Tannehill
Woodhead
Deangelo Willams
Tavon Austin
Devin Funchess
Tajae Sharpe
Michael Thomas
Mike Wallace


Aaron Rodgers went in the second round in this one, thought that was nuts. Odell fell all the way to #7 overall. That guy got the steal of the draft. The steal for me was Sammy Watkins at 3.10

 

[JustinCruise]

Ended up with the following...

QB: Rodgers, Osweiler
RB: Bell, Forte, Ware, Crowell, Booker
WR: Cooper, K Benjamin, D Jackson, Fuller, V Jackson, T Benjamin
TE: Barnidge

Solid squad. A little weak at WR. hopefully this isn't a ppr league

 

[PatsFan1283]

This isn't going to be of much value to anyone now but I think Matt Forte is undervalued in PPR. Someone that just isn't being talked about but I still see him getting a good amount of the 3rd down work in NY even with Powell there. And the Jets have an offense that moves the chains to go along with a QB that loves to check down.

Also, he can be handcuffed with Powell. Think he should still be a top 10 RB in PPR formats.

 

[GoBlue34]

I haven't read much in this thread because Cruise is such a douche but Tajae Sharpe for Tenn, think he will have a relatively big year.

I think the Jets offense still has the perception of being weak which is far from truth. they should really be potent this year with one of the best 1 2 wr punches in football plus forte

 

[PatsFan1283]

I know I said about a month ago that I liked L Murray this year but think he probably doesn't pay off.

He just isn't that good, had a pedestrian preseason. Good pass protector should keep him on the field but Washington is just better than him and Richard is pretty decent too. Be surprised if he can get 300 touches. He just is going to have a tough time keeping better players off the field.

Probably still rollup a 175 and 3 week 1 on the Saints tho....

 

[JustinCruise]

I bought into the funchess hype in my second league and drafted him in the 10th round. Didn't start him but still a wasted pick. Despite all the preseason noise, Benjamin is the man in this offense.

 

[TOMB12]

Wish i had cj anderson. Missed him in my 2 drafts by 1 pick.

CJ was my first rounder in one league last year and he was complete junk. I think he scored 3 TDs all season and the first one wasn't until late in the year.

then he comes out tonight and dominates a good defense. can't predict this shit

the same clowns that sold you on the funchess hype are the same one selling you on the moncrief hype.
the end result will be the same for both

they suck

I should finish in the money this year. Got some bums in my league. ...just how I like it in fantasy. Somehow in a 12 team league I ended up with david johnson, alshonn jeffrey, sammy watkins, and mike evans. The fuck? Drew brees. Spencer ware. Terrence west. Ryan matthews. Team is dumb nice. Greenbay sleeper fantasy defense this year imo.

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Bet you that's his highest point total of the season! I thought denver would be able to run tonight. But this season will be a different story.
