Philo312 41 Posted November 11, 2015 Fellas -your advice is needed; thanks. I hve Eli & Ryan. I've tried dealing both (especially Ryan) but no takers. Both Romo and Mariota are on waivers. Mariota has an unreal upcoming schedule but I see Romo as the better fantasy QB ROS. Do you concur? Or is Mariota the better pickup paired with Eli? I'm done with Ryan. Thanks.

Saeapp 4 Posted November 11, 2015 I like Mariotas schedule too...Romo would likely fare better...but I'm concerned with his durability. I'd probably grab Mariota. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ace22 2 Posted November 11, 2015 Mariota is the ultimate upside guy with that juicy schedule. I just tried adding him myself but got outbid. Pairing him with Eli would be solid but I'd have to really think about pairing Mariota with Romo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H-man 12 Posted November 11, 2015 I like Romo better than Mariota. Ask yourself, are you high on Mariota because he lit up Tampa Bay (week 1) and New Orleans last week? Because those are the 2 worst defenses vs. QBs in adjusted fantasy points allowed. Literally #1 and #2. My guys who know a lot more than I do still have Mariota in QB2 territory. It sounds like your'e in a 2 QB league and that your best bet is streaming signal callers week to week. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo312 41 Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks fellas. H-man: I'm high on Mariota due to his upcoming sched (jax, oak, jax, jets, etc). We play a 1 QB lineup in a 12 team league, but prefer to roster 2 QB's and stream. (Perhaps not the best strategy). I don't trust Eli down the stretch as my only starter, hence the desire to snag either off ww. I've tried to deal for a Carr, Dalton, Cam, etc-- but to no avail. (League is s pain in the ass, but big $). I hear you on the assumption of chasing pts w/ Msriota. --much thanks on the insights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nrduck 0 Posted November 12, 2015 I'm an Oregon alum so I have no rational thoughts when it comes to Mariota. But hasn't he proven he's legit? And definitely a higher upside guy than the other options? With a fairly solid guy like Eli, I'd swing for the fences. Let me know if you have any opinion on this: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=450597 Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H-man 12 Posted November 12, 2015 My go to guys have Mariota as the #24 QB this week, I'm gonna follow this matchup though to test their accuracy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlToons#1Fan 1 Posted November 12, 2015 Mariota was pretty lucky last week with a few of those tipped passes. But that said, is Romo really the better option? He's been sidelined and not getting the reps he needs to stay fresh. I guess it comes down to are you looking to hit the lottery (Mariota) or cover your ass (Romo). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barber2309 26 Posted November 12, 2015 If you need a consistent sure 20 points or so (plus) every week, I would go Romo with the hopes he stays healthy the rest of the way. If you feel you need to swing for the homerun, Mariota might be the better option here. Due to Eli's inconsistency at times, I would probably prefer the safer play (despite the injury concerns) with Romo. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=450504 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 20 Posted November 12, 2015 Romo is more a sure thing with Mariota a high risk high reward guy. Please see mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=450644 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H-man 12 Posted November 16, 2015 My go to guys have Mariota as the #24 QB this week, I'm gonna follow this matchup though to test their accuracy. Mariota is exactly 24. I love my go to guys. Hope you didn't start him this week! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
