**OFFICIAL** 2018 FANTASY FOOTBALL THREAD

[gil23]

Scoring format?

.5 ppr

 

[flyerthandelta]

Just about every backfield in the NFL is a committee with the exception of like 10 and those players all go in the first or second round. You cant just stay away from all of them.

It’s wk 1 there’s a lot of overreaction

 

[es el]

Lindsey wasnt grabbed off the waivers.
Should i drop one of the Jets receivers ?
Starting lineup is

Tyrod
J Howard
Lynch
OBJ
Nuk
Ertz
Hogan
Texans D
Gould

Enuwa- targets
Robby Anderson - homerun value

If your league is ppr, id drop Enunwa for Lindsay
Lindsay should produce the same amount of targets out of the backfield if Denver keeps up his touches

 

[goledensilence]

This guy in my money league had the audacity to offer me a trade of Matt Ryan for my Patrick Mahomes... smh lol people are cutthroat out here in these fantasy streets.

Also, just picked up Ted Ginn Jr after dropping Anthony Miller... Was that a smart thing to do?

It wasn't not smart. It's a good move for now.

 

[daddychill]

Yes just take a look at the bucs schedule brutal

Just put the trade in hopefully it goes thru

 

[JustBlaze.]

Was able to pick up Lindsay. I’ll still probably go with Freeman but at least I got his handcuff on deck.

I would stay put. Lindsay could end up being a decent back, but Michel has league winning upside. You may have to wait a few weeks but I think you will regret dropping him.

No homer, but I would take this approach (if PPR):

- Hold Enunwa, drop someone else for Lindsay if you want him that badly. Enunwa is going to get a ton of looks from Darnold. He's reliable, especially on third downs.
- Robby is the HR value, es el is right. However, you should even consider trying to trade Robby for a position you need. Robby will get his love, but the Jets are going to want to protect Darnold at all costs, and that may mean it dips into Robby's production a bit.

you guys big on Peyton Barber going forward?

 

[junglejim]

Kind of shady, but i do this in a lot of leagues. If you arent sure on a waiver wire pick up and people either arent using their FAAB or burning a waiver, drop your kicker and defense and pick them up. Stew on it for a couple days and drop them Saturday morning. that way they ave to clear waivers again and you have a shot at them next week too.

If people get pissed just tell them to use their waiver or spend money on players. Punish people for being cheap.

One thing I've found out is people rarely make kicker changes and you can easily stream defenses.

Wasnt sure who to drop in my 12 man league, had 2 guys i wanted, and this works like a charm

you guys big on Peyton Barber going forward?

He is an okay running back who will get a decent workload most weeks but will likely never be more than a matchup dependent flex play

I finding hard to hold on to Wilkins from the colts. Is he even worth stashing ?

Depends on who in on the waivers, but I dropped him on Monday night.

 

[macbk]

junglejim definitely a fair approach. I personally can't pull that off in my main league tho considering I have Jags D/ST & Tucker .

 

[Bert.]

Stuck without a defense in my main league. We use FAAB. I had so much going on I forgot to use any by being lazy

He’s an every down RB on a good offense and he’s solid at every facet of the game. Good blocker and solid pass catcher even though he didn’t catch any balls this past weekend. I’d assume we’ll get RoJo involved at some point though and Koetter has this strange fascination with Jacquizz Rodgers. I’d say he’s a pretty safe RB2 or flex.

 

[buc em]

I wish the Seahawks would just declare Baldwin out already so I could put him on my ******* IR.

Hopefully he’ll at least be back before their Week 7 bye.

Well I’m on an 8 man league which I don’t really like

This is my available

After week 1 .. sure

When its all said & done Ryan mpre than likely is going to outperform Mahomes

I do it all the time. Its their fault for not picking someone up

I just joined a league at work, im 1 or 2 new people and since the draft some have questioned my strategies. Granted i benched 2 stars last week but yeah.

Dude i played last week sent me an IM yesterday saying he thought i was crazy rolling without a kicker & defense up until early sunday morning. Nah fam im holdin on making sure who i get dropped doesnt get used

 

[junglejim]

I would roster every single person on that list over Jordan Wilkins.

 

[nick.]

Wish I took a different approach with my bench so I could add some lottery tickets.

It's full of guys that aren't good enough to start over my main guys but not bad enough to drop.

Yeah but the Bucs have one of the worst defenses in the NFL, a meh line, and he doesnt get a lot of passing down work. Even when they had an extremely favorable game script last week, he still hasnt good. Here is his stats since he became the man:

He basically had one good game against the packers without aaron rodgers in 5 quarters of play. If he is your RB2 you are in trouble.

 

[macbk]

Should I drop Ty Mont and grab Aaron Jones? PPR. Current RB stable is weaksauce. Bell, Collins, Tarik, Lindsay & Ty Mont.

Yes. I think Jamaal Williams is going to struggle again this week, which probably means that the packers will be more willing to mix it up when Jones gets back. Jones is the most talented of the 3 backs and you will probably never start Ty Montgomery.

 

[getback]

Seems like a lateral move if you drop Jones and pick up Ty.
