Rams at Buccaneers: Divisional Round Discussion
njacinto replied to Mike FF Today's topic in FFToday Board
Uh... Scotty Miller, Cyril Grayson, Justin Watson, Jalen Darden, Perriman... Iʻm having a hard time visualizing how the Bucs are going to outscore the Rams with this group of receivers without Fournette or Jones... Not your typical group of household names... Iʻve been trying, their stats donʻt impress me either. My eyes tell me that Aaron Donald and his friends are way more formidable than the Eagles defense, so Iʻm taking the -3 points. -
If the Saints actually go to Green Bay, I can see the Saints using more Taysom Hill than Drew Brees... that game plan might be suited better against the Packers.

Okay... fine... lose Swift for one week... letʻs look ahead to the Thursday Thanksgiving game... DOES HE HAVE ENOUGH TIME to complete the concussion protocol to play Thursday???? We can complain about missing Swift for one game... Iʻm more concerned about his availability for Thursday.

Iʻve seen twitter posts from Charger fans and from rotowire that they believe Week 12 is the projected return. https://www.rotowire.com/football/player.php?id=12401

If Herbert can get 275 yards and 2 TDʻs at Denver... I will officially consider him MATCHUP PROOF and just concentrate on TE and matching up RBʻs for the rest of the season.

Could have been worse... DJ could have pulled a SCOTTY MILLER and get you ZERO targets and ZERO points.

Whatʻs interesting is the fact that they gave him 20 carries, being that they are primarily a passing team. Thatʻs 20 carries, with a capable 3rd down/back up rb (Edmonds) right behind you. Sure looks to me that Arizona appears committed to Drake and will keep feeding him the ball. The last time he had 20 carries (against Washington), he averaged 4.3 yards a carry and even got 2 targets (just like this week). Iʻm thinking that as they get closer to the playoffs and if they want to keep Kyler Murray healthy and on his feet, they will need a running game... and right now, the guy is Kendrick Drake. And surprise, surprise... if the O line can somehow pop him a big enough hole, Drake will take it to the house and give you a GOOD fantasy game. Sometimes, all he needs is that one pop. I saw it happen a few times last year too.

This post did NOT age well... and next time he posts something, I will definitely go against his opinion!

Guice, Jamaal, Mattison, Powell, or Snell for Bell? Please help!
njacinto replied to Stu82's topic in A Little Help!
I have a similar dilemma... for my 2nd RB (ppr), I have Darwin Thompson (high ceiling and low floor), Bilal Powell (medium ceiling/floor), and Benny Snell (low ceiling / high floor). I'm leaning towards Snell because I need a minimum of 10 fantasy points from this RB2 position to be competitive in my 1st round fantasy matchup. Brad Evans (from Yahoo) seems to be giddy about Bilal Powell's matchup (against Miami) since he catches passes, so I imagine I "could" foresee a probable 12+ point performance. But then on the other hand, Darwin Thompson could be the ONLY one of the 3 with the reach 20 points with his upside and dynamic offense (and since they MIGHT have to play from behind). 1. Snell (I'm not going to take any chances) 2. Bilal Powell (It just seems like the right situation) 3. Darwin Thompson (Oh what the heck, I'm gonna pull the trigger) -
3 things I've noticed: 1. In the last 2 games, the best RB yardage has been 81 yards (McCoy). In fact during week 2, the most productive RB (McCoy) attained 23 yards. My take - This offense is NOT featuring the running game as in past seasons. I think the best you can hope for are RB receiving yards. Maybe... 2. Baltimore ranks 1st in the NFL in Run Defense... giving up (get this) 20.5 yards a game. But on the other side, they are ranked merely 18th in Pass Defense... giving up 254 yards a game... and 10 plays of 20+ yards. Normally, this would mean a GREAT game by Mahomes and his receivers... but... 3. Rotogrinders.com is reporting this... BAL @ KCC - "The best chance we have of seeing a downpour. Will be soaked before the game, with rain continuing in to it. Flash flood watch has been issued." Which seems to indicate the possibility of a VERY UGLY GAME. My take: The BEST game script I can envision happening for Darwin Thompson is him garnering 40-60 yards rushing with a constant commitment to ball control, 5 to 6 screen passes leading up to 50 yards... and one touchdown. This would be between 20 to 22 PPR fantasy points. But that's ONLY if he gets 75% of the snaps. If Shady is playing 50% of the snaps, Darwin may get 10 to 16 PPR points.

I think you can get Kelce early in the 2nd round... and perhaps you can get either Conner or a top flight WR like Michael Thomas to pair him with.

Follow up question, do I then start the Pitt defense? I have both the Saints and the Steelers. I'm starting to think this Pitt/Clev game will play the under...
-
With the 40 mph winds and torrential rain forecast in Cleveland (Pitt @ Clev), do I start both Big Ben and Antonio Brown? Do I start only Brown? Do I bench both and start Stafford and Demaryius Thomas instead? This game is beginning to become a headache...

Royce Freeman, C. Carson, ADP, and Peyton Barber are all doing pretty well tonight.
-
On a related note.... If you're picking up a 3rd RB in a ppr12 league, would you pick up ADP, P. Barber, or C. Carson?
