Title: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by kec6906 on Sep 23rd, 2006, 2:27pm
hey gang, whats up?  need some help with week 3.

League #1  OBFFL (2-0)

scoring: longer TD's = more pts, bonus pts for # of rushes & recepts, pts for rush, rec & pass yardage, longer FG = more pts, def pts for sacks, int's, safetys, fum rec & pts allowed.

My team:

QB: McNabb, Johnson  [start 1]
RB: Rudi, Fred Taylor, Kevin Jones, White, Dayne  [start 2]
WR: Fitzgerald, R Moss, Coles, Branch, Givens, Lloyd  [start 3]
K: Longwell
Ind Def: Umenyiora
DEF: INDY
Head Coach:  Andy Reid

A. Which 2 RB's would you start?  thinking of staying with Fred & Rudi.  both have tough matchups but have looked very good and KJ hasnt.

1. Rudi @ PIT
2. Fred @ INDY
3. KJ  vs  GB

B. Would you pick up Buffalo def vs. Jets at home this week instead of Indy vs JAX? (i dont have to drop Indy)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
League #6 GFFL (1-1)

all TD's = 6 pts, only get bonus pts for rush OR rec over 100 yds (not combined), over 300 yds pass. thats it.

My team:

QB: Bledsoe, Favre, Johnson  [start 1]
RB: Alexander, Cadillac, Chester Taylor, M Bell  [start 2]
WR: Holt, A Johnson, Evans  [start 2]
K: Josh Brown, Longwell  [start 1]
DEF: BAL, JAX  [start 1]

A. Which QB would you start?  thinking Favre.

1. Favre @ DET   or
2. Johnson vs CHI

B. Which RB to go with Alexander?  leaning towards Chester.  Cadillac back issues and TB offense has been horrible.

1. Cadillac vs CAR
2. Chester Taylor  vs  CHI

thanks for the advice.   [smiley=eagle.gif]

League 1 - A) You've got three solid options there.  I would stick with Rudi, BUT I would roll my dice on Kevin Jones this week.  The Packers stink.  It's just a hunch.

League 1 - B) Yes!

League 2 - A) Don't like either of your QB options there, bro.  I have Favre ranked higher than Johnson this week, though, over at StegsList.com (http://www.stegslist.com).

League 2 - B) Another "lesser of two evils" call...  My rankings are in agreement with you by a hair.  I wouldn't expect much from either, though.

league 1a) i like both rudy and fred though both have tough assignments.

league 1b) i would pick up buffalo.

league 2a) big hell yeah to favre.  i think he will be launching them again.

league 2b) i think you have got to go with taylor until the cadillac shows something.

good luck! [smiley=clap.gif]

1a)  I say rudy johnson and Kevin Jones  (i got a feeling about K.J. this week)

1b)  I think this is a toss up.  I would stick with Indy though.

2a)  100% favre over johnson.....no doubter to me

2b)  I gotta go with Chester Taylor here.  He has a tough matchup but he's the man in minnesota and if anything at all happens on the ground it will be him.  too many question marks with cadillac right now IMO.  

good luck!!!

1A.  I would go with Rudi Johnson and Kevin Jones.  Even if you go with Taylor he should have sdecent stats as long as the ball stays on the ground... which mnay not be long playing agains Indy.

1B.  I would definitely puck up the Bills for this week.  I love the match-up.

2A.  I don't like either QB option but I think I would go with Johnson.  Favre is too "feast or famine" with the latter too likely.

2B.  I give the slight edge to Taylor.  With TB's struggles I would pass on Williams for the week.

I'd lean towards KJ too. I don't love him, but WAS is just too tough a defense and Mo Drew will steal some carries from Fragile Fred.

Coles didn't practice last week and still had a decent game. If he's playing, use him with Fitz. I'd also go with Moss -- he's overdue and Cleveland might just accomodate him.

I'd go with the 2 RBs (Jackson and Jordan) and then use 3 WRs (Johnson, Moss, Wayne)... but this is a tough call. I just think Carolina is going to put the clamps down and play a good game for a change.

Since you don't get penalized for FLs and INTs, go with Favre. He'll be throwing a lot against a weakened secondary while playing catch-up.

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by StegRock on Oct 1st, 2006, 12:59pm
Gotta be FAST...

League 1A - Taylor.

League 1B - Go with L.J.  Indy's pass D is tough.

League 2 - I'd roll my dice on Moss, and go with Bledsoe at QB.

...

kec, remember, bro, I am now living in Hawaii.  If you want my take, you need to get your help posts up earlier... as in Saturday night, bro.  Good luck!

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by kec6906 on Oct 6th, 2006, 9:16am
thanks for the help guys.  yeah steg, i waited a little too long last week.  good luck in Hawaii, wish i was there.

League #1 i did go with KJ (42 pts) & McNabb was huge for me too (56 pts).  but R Moss, Fitz & Coles (totalled 9 pts)  thank goodness for KJ & McNabb!  missed the high score for the week by 8 pts.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
League #2 went with the 3 RB's and Andre & Coles but didnt make much difference, finally got first win!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
League #6 went with Bledsoe (2 td's), Favre had zippo!
but won big anyway.

i actually had a 7-0 week not that it will always be like that but it was a very fun week!

thanks again.  wk 5 help ? coming soon.

Post by kec6906 on Oct 6th, 2006, 10:41am
ok gang, a few tough choices this week again, need some of your expert advice.  a liitle long but hopefully i posted early enough so you could read thru it all.  
here we go....

League #6 GFFL (3-1),  6 pts for TD's, bonus pts for 100+ yds rec or rush (not combined), 300+ yds pass.

QB: Bledsoe, Favre  [start 1]  
RB: Alexander, Cadillac, Chester Taylor, K Jones, M Bell, Morris  [start 2]  
WR: Holt, A Johnson, Evans, Reggie Williams  [start 2]  
K: Josh Brown, Longwell  [start 1]  
DEF: BAL, JAX  [start 1]


1. Which 2 RB's?  leaning towards Taylor & KJ even though they play each other.  NO Def has been tough plus TB has rookie QB.

Cadillac  @  NO    
KJ  @  MIN
C Taylor  vs  DET

2. Which WR to go with stud Holt?  leaning to Williams.

Evans  @  CHI
Williams  vs  NYJ

3. Which DEF?  leaning to stay with BAL

BAL  @  DEN
JAX  vs  NYJ
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
League #5 (Suckered ino this one after the draft when someone dropped out of my bro's league - draft wasnt too bad except for bye weeks and that he drafted 3 Bengals but i have made some changes)  (2-2)
scoring: rush/rec TD = 6pts, pass td = 4 pts, 10 yds rush=1 pt, 20 yds rec = 1 pt (bonuses for 100 yds rec/rush or 300 pass).

QB: Palmer, Delhomme  [start 1]
RB: Rudi Johnson, McGahee, Dunn, Barlow, Morris   [start 2]
WR: S Moss, Reg Williams, A Bryant, Jenkins, TJ Housh   [start 3]
TE: Clark, Crumpler   [start 1]
K: Kaeding
DEF: SEA


no choice but to start Barlow @ JAX and McGahee @ CHI, both very bad matchups.  
only betts, barber, Deangelo Williams, Robinson & Morency avail on WW.  
1. think any of these guys would actually do better than my 2 starters this week?

no choice but to start S Moss @ WAS, Bryant vs OAK & Reggie Williams vs NYJ.  I Bruce @ GB only viable WR left on WW.  
2. think he would look better than one of my starters?

3. Which DEF to pick up this week?  SEA on bye.  leaning to NE but the others could be nice sleepers.

KC  @  ARI
NO  vs  TB
NE  vs  MIA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
League #4 (3-5, play 2 games each wk)
scoring: all TD's = 6 pts, 10 yds rec or rush = 1 pt, 25 yds pass = 1 pt, fum lost & int's (-2).

QB: Grossman, Plummer  [start 1]
RB: KJ, Jordan, Rudi, Morris, Buckhalter  [start 2/3]
WR: R Moss, Rod Smith, Jennings, Horn  [start 2/3]
K: Wilkins  [start 1]
DEF: INDY  [start 1]


1. Which QB? leaning to Grossman vs BUF.  avail on WW - A Smith vs OAK, Brad Johnson vs DET.

2. Which 3 WR's? leaning to Moss, Jennings, Horn.

R Moss  @  SF
Jennings  vs  STL
Horn  @  TB
Smith  vs  BAL

no choice but to start KJ & Jordan at RB.  so i need 3 WR's this week.

also avail on WW - Morency (if he starts), Drew, Betts.  but if Morency starts for GB would u pick him up instead of one of the WR's?  and who would u take out?  what about Drew,  think he would get the ball enough to start over one of those WR's?

this was a long one but thanks for any input you give.
Go Eagles!    [smiley=eagle.gif]

League #6:
(1) I'd probably play the matchups and go with Caddy @ NO (Saints are 19th against the rush so far). I'd also go with Taylor v DET. Detroit is a bad team and might be forced to play catch up through the air.
(2) I'd go with Williams. The Bears haven't given up a TD catch this season, and Buffalo isn't a great offensive team, so I'd sit Evans despite his recent success.
(3) I think that JAX has the better matchup, but I too would stay with BAL. They should force Plummer to throw some more INTs and are playing some fantastic football right now.

League #5:
(1) I'll assume that the Barber on WW is Marion and not Tiki. ;) Anyway, the only one I might consider over McGahee/Barlow would be Morency, but only if Ahman Green is definitely out. If you can wait until the last minute, I'd grab Morency, and start him over McGahee.
(2) Isaac Bruce is having a good season so far (12th in NFL in rec yds). I'd have him on my roster ahead of Jenkins already. GRAB HIM NOW! And I'd start him in a heartbeat this week. The GB secondary is in disarray (they cut Batman Carroll this week for getting toasted so often). I'd go Moss, Bryant, and Bruce.
(3) Chiefs should do well this week with Leinart getting his first start. They're good enough to force mistakes and ARI has a terrible O-line.

League #4:
(1) Grossman should be OK, although BUF defense has done well. I like Brad Johnson this week, but who would you dump to get him? Buckhalter?
(2) Moss, Jennings, and Horn look to be the best options.
(3) I'd stick with the 3 WRs and 2 RBs this week and let Morency, etc. stay on the WW. But, if you're set on Morency (Drew doesn't get enough touches), then use him ahead of Horn.

Go Eagles! [smiley=eagle.gif] (You don't happen to have an extra ticket to the game, do you? It's going to be one wild scene in South Philly -- especially with the 4:15 start!)

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by captainpurple on Oct 6th, 2006, 12:38pm
I'm going to cop out a bit here and just kibitz off Philly's remarks:

League 6:  I agree with everything Philly said here.  I'd go with Caddy, Williams and BAL.

League 5: Again, much of what Philly said is right on for me.  I really like Bruce this week too.  And if Green sits, start Morency in a heartbeat.   As for the D, I like NO more than KC this week.  Leinart has pocket awareness and should fair better than a normal rookie would (though not much with that OLine).  TBs OLine sucks and the rookie QB is not as polished as Leinart, so I'd go with NO.  They'll give up some ground yards but I like their chance at turnovers a bit more.

League 4:   Keep an eye on Westbrook's status.  I'm hearing his knee is still swelling and he may be a GTD (though you guys...or is it yous guys when talking about Philadelphia  ;) ... may be more plugged in than I).  If so, I'd start Buckhalter over KJ.   He'll split time with Moats, but should see the majority of carries again.   I think KJ is a 50 yards/no TDs waiting to happen this week, and will disappoint.    Other than that, I agree with Philly, keep the 3 WRs over Morency.

Good luck!

League #6

1. I'd go with Caddy and Taylor.  Minnesota is p.o.-ed and Jones hasn't been good all year.

2. Yea, gotta play matchup there.  Go with Williams over Evans.

3. I'd actually go with the Jags against New York.  I think reality is about to set in for the Jets after their nip-and-tuck loss to the Colts.  Denver's O, on the other hand, is just hitting stride.  Not that that game, too, won't be low-scoring.  You really have two great choices here.

League #5

1. Boy, that's a rough call.  I would try to grab Morency, just in general.  It's going to be a game-time decision with Green, though, this week.  If Green is a no go, I'd go with Morency and McGahee.  As things stand, leave your lineup alone, BUT go pick up Morency.

2. Close call, probably six of one, half dozen of the other.  I'd have Bruce on my team, though, over Jenkins.

3. I'd go with KC.  NE would be my second choice.  But, I'd roll my dice on a HOT KC defense going up against a rook QB, and a WEAK O-line.

League #4

1. I'd stick it out with Grossman, but I think all three of the QB's you mentioned are good bets this week.

2. Again, similar to my commentary above, if Morency starts, I'd play him over Horn.  I'd grab him, in any event.  Otherwise, I too would go with the three you chose.

Title: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread - brain fart ?'s
Post by kec6906 on Oct 7th, 2006, 11:14am
well, reports say Ahman is gonna play so the Morency idea is out.

anyway, thanks for all the advice, 2 last questions, although they may be stupid.

League #1 - OBFFL (3-1) distance scoring

1. need 3 WR/TE from following:

Fitzgerald  vs  KC  (slow start, injured ankle, rookie QB?)
R Moss  @  SF  (one really good game against bad SF Def before tough schedule begins?)
Coles  @  JAX  (been very good so far but injured wrist?)
LJ Smith  vs  DAL  (double pts w/ McNabb at QB)
M Robinson  vs  DET  (very decent matchup but will he get the ball?)
Hall  @  ARI   (return & WR possibilities?)

obviously leaning towards top 3 but been reading alot of reports about leinart using alot of short passes and getting James more involved to get things going, plus he's a rookie making first start and KC def pretty decent against the pass.

you can see my reasons are written next to the players.  

2. McNabb has been a stud so far but would anyone even consider benching him against tough Dallas D this wk? No i dont have Peyton.

?.?.? ?.?.? ?.?.? ?.?.?

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by Oakland4life on Oct 7th, 2006, 3:52pm
Well, you gotta start L.J. with Mcnabb.  I've always loved the double whammy WR/QB tandem on my team.

Anyway for your other two starters, I hate to say it, but you gotta start Randy.  I am also an owner of Randy, and I hate to leave him in the lineup some weeks, but if there is a week to at least feel good about it, this is the week.  The Niners secondary sucks, and you just have to hope Randy can exploit that. Secondly, you gotta start Fitz.  We have no idea what Leinart is going to do.  He could throw for 400 yds and Boldin and Fitz get 2 TD's a piece.  Who knows.  The point is, these guys are your studs.  Unless they are NOT playing  you just have to start them.  Unless Randy puts up a goose egg, then  you can trade his ass.

Good luck!!

Saints are much better vs. the pass than the run, and the Eagles spread it pretty thin.  I'd go Coles, RSmith & Branch.

This is getting really thin, and really doesn't matter when you get this low on the list.  Just pick one out of a hat, mine came up Tynes.

McGahee.  Chester Taylor just put up 123 yards on DET.  McGahee should hit 100 and probably a score.

League #1
1. I would actually roll with Branch this week.  He is an intriguing play with Engram sidelined.

2. I would say in the order you list them.

3. Miami and then Detroit.  If you have to go with Tampa Bay, your in deep trouble.  I don't think St. Louis is a good play, either.

League #3
1. I would, FOR SURE, drop Robinson for Washington, but I think that's it.  Right now, with Westbrook's lingering knee issues, it's a dicey move to let go of Buckhalter.  If you really want Turner, drop Norwood or Buckhalter for him (and cross your fingers that you've "chosen the right door").

League #5
1. I would go with McGahee or Dunn, probably in that order.  I'm not too keen on Morris until he shows me something as a starter.

League #1
1. I'd go with (who I think are) your studs, Rudi and Taylor.

2. I lean the same way you do.

3. " ".

League #2
1. I'd go Green, of course, IF he plays (he's listed as probable right now), and, yes, Jordan at RB.  Then, I'd go with Moss, Coles and Wayne.

League #4
1. Stick it out with Plummer.

2. I'd go with Indy.

League #5
1. Yea, I'd go with Rudi and McGahee, too, but I think Dunn may surprise this week.

2. I'd go with the "absolutely bona fide" stud, who is due to boot, Palmer.

League #6
1. I don't know...  I think I'd go with old-man [smiley=wiseman.gif] Favre.

(By the way, your t-shirt was shipped today!  Be on the lookout!!!) :)

1. You have to start anyone against Houston. They just aren't getting it done. I'm also thinking about Jones (getting better) over Johnson, but Johnson has to break out of his funk soon, so give him another chance.

2. You nailed it.

3. Denver, without a doubt.

2. Wow... tough choice. I'll lean to Delhomme only because he's got Steve Smith going strong and the Bengals are still struggling to get their offense righted.

If you only get points for 300+ yard performances, I think you've got to go with (gasp) Favre of that bunch. He throws it more than the rest of them and his big concern is INTs, which I think you don't have to worry about.

Hey Philly, thanks for the input.  i picked up Crumpler off WW in League #1 tonite.  so, if you change your thoughts on the 3 starting WR's/TE's in league #1 send me a post.  i already modified my original post to include Crumpler for those reading for the first time.

lost out on Lundy & Furrey (looking ahead) cause i was last on WW this week again.  sucks, when you win and score alot of points you'll never have a shot at any good WW pickups cause your always at the bottom and those players are gone before it gets to you.  

anyway, i've got an add on ? to week 8 help.

anybody play in a league with individual defensive players?  i have osi umenyiora who is hurt (possibly bad) but unknown yet.  i could put him on inj reserve ($10-$20 depending on how long) or drop him outright and pick up another player.  hopefully someone past their bye week so i dont have to make another move at this position again.

League #1 individual defensive player scoring - sacks, int's, safety = 5 pts, 3 tackles = 1 pt, forced fum = 3 pts, rec fum = 3 pts, TD 1-50 yds = 12 pts, TD 51+ yds = 15 pts

available DE/DT possibilities:

Kampman (GB)
Hali (KC)
Dumervil (DEN)
Alex Brown (CHI)
Walker (PHI)
Berry (ARI) has been hot but bye wk 9
Schobel (BUF)  also been hot but on bye wk 8

could also go CB, S, LB but just hoping for int's back there.  obviously TD's would be ideal but who can predict defensive TD's?

thoughts on this one?   [smiley=spkyle.gif]





Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by Oakland4life on Oct 28th, 2006, 3:39am
Osi Umenyiora will not suit up this week.  And with a hip injury, not an easy one to come back from if you are a lineman.  I think you should probably dump him, and even if he comes back, I'm sure he will still be hampered all season with this injury.

I have been "covering" Tamba Hali this year on the "grid" and I think he is the real deal.  He has 3.5 sacks this year, (only 1.5 less than Omi) and he has 2 more tackles and forced fumbles.  He is a solid pickup In my opinion, and is only getting better during the season.

As for the rest of those chodes, I have no idea really Lmao [smiley=LMFAO.gif] and I don't feel like reasearching for a more clear opinion.  I just figured I'd let you know about Hali, cause I REALLY like this rookie.

Good Luck!

These are my hunches...

2. Go with Moss, and don't look back.  Don't over-think it!

League #2
1. You are... [smiley=bullseye.gif]

2. As per the above, I would roll my dice on New Orleans.

League #5
1 & 2. I would, believe it or not, sit Rudi, who I LOVE, mind you, but..., and Johnson.

League #6
1. I would honor the "cycles" theory on this one and go with Leinart.  Either way, I think you are okay.  My rankings at StegsList.com (http://www.stegslist.com) this week will have them both ranked fairly similarly.

Hey kec...

If you're looking for a defensive end with a high risk/reward quotient... take a chance with Elvis Dumervil. In the past two weeks he has 5 sacks. With that type of production, he's going to keep getting more and more time.

Hey guys, huge blow to my big league this weekend - lost D McNabb for the season!  and i was at the Linc to see my Eagles, my fantasy week and maybe my fantasy season go down with him.  More bad new - i dont have a backup!

now i'm gonna be 6-5 with 2 wks til playoffs and of course next week i get my division leader & LT2.

i desperately need a new QB with really no great options avail:

Carr (HOU)
Frye (CLE)
Gradkowski (TB)
Johnson (MIN)
Leinart (ARI)
Harrington (MIA)
Campbell (WAS)
Garcia (PHI)
Brooks (OAK)

Here is my roster again if it helps at all (distance TD scoring + bonuses):

Post by captainpurple on Nov 20th, 2006, 4:44pm
all i have to say is...OUCH!

That's a back-breaker for you.  I think you've got to go with Garcia.   He's still got the weapons around him with LJ, Westy, Stallworth and Reggie.   None of those WW options is better IMO.   You could play the matchup game, but I think Garcia will be the most consistent of that group.

good luck!

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by Callie on Nov 20th, 2006, 6:09pm
Over on the Eagles In-Season thread, Philly told us that Feely may start instead of Garcia.  As far as Frye goes, I'd take a wait and see if you can.  They have a new OC in Cleveland, and things are improving for the O.  That could work out for you.

The other thing, the IND D isn't going to help you as a Team D, in my humble opinion.  The MIN D should be better as a Team D than it is, and it isn't doing it.  Check out the WW and let us know who is there!

Edit:  I read your post too fast.  You don't own Frye right now.  I'd pick him up.

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by kec6906 on Nov 21st, 2006, 5:19pm
Hey Callie,

i thought Indy D would pick up where they left off last year but obviously they didnt.

Minn was almost scoring a TD a week for a while this year but not lately.

scoring for DEF/ST is as follows:

throw shutout          = 15 pts
allow 10 or less pts  = 7 pts
allow over 10 pts      = 0

INT's, Sacks, Fum Rec, Blocked FG, Blocked XP, Blocked Punt = 1 pt
Safety = 2 pts

TD over 50 yds = 15 pts
TD 50 yds & under = 12 pts

these are my not so spectacular options on the WW:

Miami, Ten, KC, Oak, GB, Stl, Cle, Ari, SF, Cin, Hou, TB, Wash, Det

Title: Re: kec6906 "who 2 start?" thread
Post by Callie on Nov 21st, 2006, 9:07pm
I like SF and then MIA for the second half of the season.  Plus with these teams your studs won't be sitting out in the fantasy play-offs to save them for the real play-offs (unless SF actually pulls it off and gets in them, and I doubt that will happen - THIS year).  SF is coming along faster than expected (at least by a lot of people, including me  ;D ), which couldn't make me happier.  If you have room, why not grab both and then play the best match-up each week.

League #1
1. Harrington or Frye is a toss-up.  As per "Steg's List (http://www.stegslist.com)", though, I, ever so slightly, lean toward Harrington.

2. I'd go with the three wideouts.

League #2
1. Johnson and Green, HANDS-DOWN!

League #3
1. Believe it or not, I have Fargas ranked the highest of the four.  I'd roll my dice on the kid.

League #4
1. Pennington.

2. In a bit of a tough call, I'd, again, go with Fargas along with Harris.  It appears Jones will not be playing.
