    Woodhead worth a spot?

    In PPR, with Gordons role uncertain, and a TE downgrade until Gates returns, then yes I think Woodhead is worth a flex spot.

    WR2 - Week1

    No one has mentioned that if Cobb gets a little more banged up, has snaps reduced for whatever reason, maybe even as a precaution, then Adams becomes the man.

    Opinions on my team in a 10 man, standard league

    I don't hate it. Cooks and Adams picking up where they left off last year,- or not - might determine your season. Landry, Hill, Miller, should be solid. Ryan and Stafford are similar to me - both rely primarily on one receiver and are confidence players. Start the home guy each week.

    Shot Caller's Report - Wk 1

    Jones on one of my benches, but not starting yet. Gotta give me a chance for one of my starting RBs to faceplant first.

    ***Official*** 2015 FFToday Survivor Contest

    Also in. Thanks for setting up. Echo the tough week sentiment. Theres a case for almost every team.

    Who Will Be The Hot Waiver Wire Darling After Week 1?

    Kevin Ogletree I think. Had 30 minutes of fame in the opener, met the president, and then fell down a sinkhole. There's one every year. It will be the 4th WR on a new team, or a rookie that nobody expected to get on the field. Nate Washington, Ted Ginn, Kamar Aiken, Willie Snead Jarius Wright Actually, being able to name them usually disqualifies you from guessing the right one.

    Pick'em and Survivor Competition - it's easy join us

    The spreads have been on the Yahoo Pickem since yesterday. The way I have read it, the/our Yahoo group isn't going to have confidence points. The myfantasyleague group is the one with confidence points. Unless I am missing something (?)

    Darren McFadden or Joseph Randle

    One of my opponents in Week 1 is sitting Randle and starting J Hill and A Blue as his RBs. I assume he is waiting for DMcF to snap.

    Flex help pick one.

    I'm going to be that guy and say Stevie Johnson, just because. Wright might be highest floor and Decker highest ceiling. Jets might get in front and then just run. SD might not have a TE and could be cautious with Gordon. Rivers and Johnson could fall in love this year.

    Mike Evans

    For a couple of weeks now, I have thought he might be more injured than has been reported and might miss at least a week, so I grabbed VJax in my final draft. I had Evans last season and of course he was fantastic but he now seems to be one of those guys you always have to check for hamstring health.
  11. I don't think Cruz plays. All the news is negative on him. Roll with Randle and hope his hands aren't stone. If Martin goes off, I was never here.

    Matt Jones vs C. Michael

    Jones. He only has to pass Alf to have the gig. And he will get 3rd down work either way. Michael needs to pass Randle and McFragile. Sorry, I'm laughing, Of course he will pass them when one or both get injured.. But there are other variables - he was let go by Seattle for a reason. Michael might be one of those very talented guys who sits behind a stud Like Lynch and you're sure they will boom when they get a chance - but they just don't.

    Steve Smiff

    He started to wear down at the end of last season. 600 yards 4 TDs in Weeks 1-6 (6 games) then 500 2 TDs in Weeks 7-17 (10 games). But they don't have many other receiving options. Perriman is behind where he should be and Aiken and Brown are hit and miss. Although he is tough and Trestman helps. I like him early until Perriman eats into his numbers.

    Rank My Team

    You might need Gordon to pan out as advertised or NE to suddenly become reliable with their RB usage (and use LGB) Otherwise very sweet. Im high on Hopkins in a couple of leagues and hope for crissakes that Hoyer can get the ball to him. Decker has also been a lil under the radar.
  15. GornFishin'

    Jonas Gray worth a look?

    He's now with Miami, btw.

    Draft tonight... Anyone rate my team?

    I would have drafted around Johnson, because by then you already had Hilton. And I presume you had your eye on Gore 5 picks later.. Eifert Agholar and Abdullah are good X factors. Woody is always a solid PPR flex. Miami D has a sweet first 5 weeks. Potential problem if Eifert bombs. But otherwise solid.

    Survivor League Week 1 Pick?

    Mine is a secret, but Im so confident (NOT) that I went two different ways in 2 leagues. Oh hell I went Denver and Miami. But week 1 ALWAYS throws up something unexpected. I get more confident mid season when the choices become fewer. if I survive that long.

    Tier 3 TE's ....

    I got Charles Clay very late, something like Round 13/14 in a 12 team league. Bills will run til they drop but someone will get targets outside of Watkins. And who ever knows how much Harvin will contribute. It's not my craziest ever selection. Unless I got Gronk or Olsen, I was prepared to wait a long time on TE's this year.
  19. GornFishin'

    Darren McFadden

    Darren McFragile is Lucy holding the ball. You are Charlie Brown ready to kick.

    Deangelo Williams - Value first two weeks

    Someone you might want to consider who is in a VERY similar situation is Benny Cunningham STL. He's no LT but the situation is favourable. Looks like he will get the backfield to himself in week 1 if Tre Mason cannot go and is still on a lot of wires. Less wear and younger than Williams and Steelers might air it out more. Just a thought.

    must own handcuff

    Ryan Mathews played a full season in 2013 and before that missed about 10 games over 3 years. Last season was actually more of an anomaly than the norm. "Never stayed healthy" is erroneous hyperbole.
  22. GornFishin'

    Alshon Jeffrey missed practice again... Choose 2

    Matthews and Royal. On Royal, if you don't start him when Jeffery is injured/gimpy, when WOULD you start him.

    Who are you avoiding?

    Gronkowski #1 overall?

    While Gronk is THE standout TE this season, I think it's still a reach to put him #1 overall. You also hit upon why expectations should be dampened a little. He's the main focus, which means he's also the main focus of defences. If you recall, in the season Gronk was injured, Graham was easily the standout TE, and he was going around #10 in most drafts. which pretty much matched his year. I think the deep position this year is WR, even after Nelson and Benjamin went down. I think if you don't grab one of the top tier RBs with one of your first 2 picks, you're in relative trouble. They really fall away imo. I think you can more easily offset any 'loss' you take having a middling TE (of which there are plenty this season) with any number of very good WRs that are draftable in mid to later rounds..

    Who was your last pick non kicker or defense?

    Matt Jones RB in my 12 Team PPR just concluded. I'm a fan of Alf, but the potential to overtake was too tempting to resist. Last night, in my other (deeper) league - Benny Cunningham RB as a sneak RB flex while Mason is doubtful for maybe 1/2 weeks (also depends on health of my other flex type RB - CJ Spiller). Second to last was Dorial Green-Beckham.WR And G'day everyone - my first post. And yes, I'm an Aussie.
