Need Lineup Help? Ask Here!

Recommended Posts

Instead of me going in each person's thread individually I thought it would be easier to do it all in one thread. If you have a lineup dilemma, a trade question, or a waiver wire move, feel free to ask away in here and I will personally do my best to answer each of your questions. For those that don't know me, I'm a sports columnist for A Sports Syndicate and a Fantasy columnist on FFBLIFE. I never claim to be an expert, I'm just one man, giving my opinion, one day at a time. Good Luck in Week 6 my friends!

Great idea. Start one at Flex....Darren Sproles, Victor Cruz or Shonn Greene. Thanks for the help.

 

Cruz is running hot but you gotta go with Sproles or Greene here. On the plus side, Greene has been getting his fair share because Sanchez is probably a better surfer than he is an NFL Quarterback. Sproles is a Top 10 RB fantasy wise and he doesn't even run the ball that often. That's how impressive he is out of the backfield as a short pass specialist. I think Sproles gets you 100 yards almost every week (all purpose). And the Bucs' defense is in shambles right now. I think Green scores for sure against the lowly Dolphins on Monday night, but I think Sproles ends up with more fantasy points overall. Good luck with whatever you decide and good luck in Week 6!

Wow. Impressive team irish. Looks like you would be SOLID at the RB spot for the rest of the year with this trade.

 

Let's break it down:

Dez = 34 Points

Stevie = 49 Points

Mendy = 26 Points

 

Fred Jackson = 97 Points (And this gives you three top 10 running backs)

Tim Tebow = Remains to be seen

 

And for whatever it's worth, I was 2nd on waivers this past week and got Tim. I have Big Ben, but this is a nice back up for me. Who is your starting quarterback now? I say pull the trigger, you already have a great team, this just improves it. Just my opinion

Biting my nails so would appreciate some advice.

 

QB Fitz Vs.NYG

RB1 Bradshaw Vs. BUF

RB2 Torain Vs. PHI or D. Thomas Vs. NYJ ?

WR1 Nicks Vs. BUF

WR2 Colston Vs. TB, D Nelson Vs. NYG, or J. Nelson Vs.STL ?

FLEX Between whoever doesn't make RB2 or WR2

TE Whitten

K Hanson Vs. SF

DEF CIN Vs. IND

 

Leaning towards Torain, D. Nelson and Colston. Do these make sense?

Biting my nails so would appreciate some advice.

 

QB Fitz Vs.NYG = Fine, NYG defense will give up at least 30 in this one. I have them as a featured SIT 'EM this week

RB1 Bradshaw Vs. BUF = Just never know with this 2 headed monster, but he should get his.

RB2 Torain Vs. PHI or D. Thomas Vs. NYJ ? Torain without a doubt on paper. Just hope Mike takes his meds and keeps him in

WR1 Nicks Vs. BUF = Absolutely

WR2 Colston Vs. TB, D Nelson Vs. NYG, or J. Nelson Vs.STL ? I own Colston in one of my leagues and I don't see him going 0'fer into Week 7. Also a featured Start 'EM

FLEX Between whoever doesn't make RB2 or WR2 = Battle of the Nelson's here lol. I don't know man, Rams defense is like swiss cheese so Jordy might get one or two, then again, David might do the same. Either way, I think you see similar point totals from these two.

TE Whitten = No Brainer

K Hanson Vs. SF #1 Fantasy Kicker

DEF CIN Vs. IND = Who does Painter scare? Not a great match up, but decent.

 

Leaning towards Torain, D. Nelson and Colston. Do these make sense?

 

Hope that helps! My Week 6 list is here along with all other rankings from ffblife staff. http://ffblife.com/index.php/michaeliggy/207-omostartsit6

PPR 10 team league

 

Reggie Wayne or Pieree Garcon?

 

Depends on who the Bengals throw at these two guys. If Leon Hall plays on the other side of Wayne, which I'm pretty sure he will, he might be limited. Garcon is on FIRE right now, how can you ignore what he has done the past 2 weeks? 4 touchdowns and 270 yards receiving? Why throw away the hot hand and bring in a cold drink yanno? It's a tough call but I'd stick with the Frenchman

Deangelo or ridely........branch or manningham non ppr thanks!

 

DeAngelo without a doubt. I'd go Manningham in what looks to be a shoot out against the Bills. Branch looked good last week, but let's not get fooled....He had a combined 1 catch the 2 weeks prior to that. Maybe Tom and Branch are finding their groove, but I wouldn't gamble on that....Good luck in Week 6!

Beanie Wells for Tony Romo. Standard league, no PPR. I am the Wells owner. I have Fitz at QB. Rice, Wells, Ingram, Greene and Jacobs. I also own Austin.

How would you rank these 4 at WR in a PPR league that gives 1 point every 10 receiving yards 1 point every 15 return yards on kicks/punts.

 

Josh Cribbs vs Oakland-(he is why I mentioned the return yardage factor)

 

Tampa Mike Williams vs New Orleans

 

Darrius Heyward Bey vs Cleveland

 

Randall Cobb vs St Louis-(another guy that does returns)

 

I have to start one for each league

Cribbs/Williams/HeywardBey in leauge 2

Why get Romo? Fitz has 101 fantasy points, Romo has 85. So you would actually be downgrading if you ask me, even though I love Romo this week. It's not a 2 QB league right? You already lost Jacobs to an injury for now, so you are down to Rice, Wells, Ingram, and Greene. Trade wells away and you are then short at the RB position if you ask me. What's your record? I say stick with who ya got now. Good luck in Week 6!

Josh Cribbs vs Oakland-(he is why I mentioned the return yardage factor) Been slowed be a nagging knee injury and Greg Little gets the start

 

Tampa Mike Williams vs New Orleans This guy is a bum, but they may have to throw often in this one

 

Darrius Heyward Bey vs Cleveland I'm starting him personally on one of my squads

 

Randall Cobb vs St Louis-(another guy that does returns)Has major potential and can run one back at anytime. If packers are up 28-0 against the lowly Rams though, how much are they going to be throwing?

 

I have to start one for each league

 

Cribbs/Williams/Cobb in leauge 1

Cribbs/Williams/HeywardBey in leauge 2

 

If you have to pick one for each league, I'd go with DHB and Cobb (just because of his potential on Special Teams)

 

Good luck on whatever you decide!

No problem man, that's what I'm here for! League 1, I'd go with DHB. Hard to ignore all the targets he has gotten past few games and Nelson has been quiet.

 

League 2 - I'd go with DHB and Pettigrew. I would have told you Hernandez over Pettigrew but he was limited in practice yesterday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game!

 

Hope this helps, good luck in Week 6!

Forte and Jones. Best is a featured SIT 'EM on my Week 6 list: http://ffblife.com/index.php/michaeliggy/207-omostartsit6

 

TE: I personally own Davis in one of my leagues, and the Eagles are HORRIBLE at defending the TE, but Owen is hard to ignore. He is putting up great numbers and the fact that AJ is out means Schaub will be looking his way, even against this stingy Ravens D. I think both players end up with similiar point totals, but Owen should get a few more targets and points than Fred. Hope this helps, best of luck in Week 6!

Based on it being a .5 PPR league, I'd go with DHB. He's getting all the looks right now.

 

And she's just a very upset fan. Today was not a good day for Big Blue...

WindyCityIggy! please help a fellow WindyCity brother out w/ picking up a Defense. I have to make a waiver claim tonight due to SD on a bye:

Available:

BUF D vs. giants - too risky?

OAK D vs. browns - Like it

..and dare I go VIKINGS D vs. da bears? - O line is terrible?

 

I'm leaning Vikes -Jay gets sacked a lot tomorrow? (unfortunately)

 

Thanks man. You North or Southside?

Haha, good to see a chi-town native on here! I'm NW side, near west side. I'm a defense maniac, I love holding 2-3 D/ST on my team. The Bills create turnovers at an alarming rate, but they also give up mass amounts of points. Oakland's D is mediocre. They have scored double digits just ONCE this season...Vikings D could be a possibilty, but I REALLY think the Bears fix the offense this Sunday night or Martz and Lovie are going to get ROASTED! They need to get the ball out of Jay's hands quicker (which I'm pretty sure is going to be the plan), hence less sacks for the Vikings. Even with all the pressure Jay got last week, he had ZERO turnovers. I think it's a toss up between the Bills and Raiders here. Bills have a defensive TD in the last 3 games and the Giants are giving up the 5th most fantasy points to D/ST. I think you roll the dice with the Bills here. Good luck with whatever you decide, and good luck in week 6!

Should I drop Dallas Clark for Fred Davis? Ppr league, Gronk is my starter.

 

Thanks!

 

As stated in my Week 6 column here: http://ffblife.com/index.php/michaeliggy/207-omostartsit6

 

I think Clark is a bust. He's just a blocking tight end for Painter now. Clark misses Peyton more than anyone on the team.

 

I've had Davis as a sleeper since Week 1 and he's rewarded me just fine in one of my leagues. Good luck in Week 6!

Is it a PPR league? I like Breaston's upside, don't give up on him yet. I'd start Williams over Nelson, unless you are in a PPR league as he might see targets with Jones being out, but Williams has looked good last 2 weeks even though he shares his load with Stewart AND Newton. Good luck in Week 6!

Thanks for your reply. Its a non PPR league. I was thinking of keeping breaston too!
