When I can't even tell which side you think is getting hosed on the deal, that's probably a good sign it's not that bad of a deal.
-
Yes, my two "stud" WR's at this point: Julio Jones with 0 receptions heading into the 4th quarter, and Golden Tate with 2 catches for 15 yards near the end of the 3rd quarter. FU!!!!!!
-
Exactly. Anyone who watched the game knows, he hit a seam up the middle for a really lucky TD when the guy covering him fell down and the other DBs were confused because the play was extended by Rogers.
8 catches and 67 yards nobody is talking about Cobb today, except maybe as a WR3. Add that one big play in there and he's a stud? Go back to last year his best game was 7 for 84 and a TD.
I agree, sell high if you can find an owner who will bite.
Dude was targeted 10 times. Not a lot of receivers get that level of attention. Minus Jordy Nelson, Cobb is likely the primary beneficiary of additional targets. With that many targets coming from a world-class QB, sign me up. We all realize he's not going to get a 75 yard TD every game.

What are your thoughts on Randall Cobb going forward? I know a huge percentage of his total yards in game 1 was on the one TD, but I'm more intrigued about the number of targets he received during the game (10) and the possibility that he'll continue getting high numbers of targets now that Jordy Nelson's gone. I'm not typically one to make drastic changes after week 1, but I'm considering dropping Chris Hogan for Cobb. Hogan seems boom-or-bust (as does everybody every year on the Patriots), and Cobb seems to have more potential for stable, consistent production. Thoughts?

I am going Kittle before Cook
Well sure, if Kittle is available, I'd absolutely take him first. But doubt he's actually available in too many leagues.
-
I appreciate the skepticism, but as another Delanie owner who needs a replacement, it's not like there are any great reliable options available on the waiver wire. It's Cook or Eric Ebron or Will Dissly or Antonio Gates or Hooper/Brate or V McDonald. As of right now, I'm thinking of trying for Cook. 12 targets for a TE is basically twice that of any other available TE.

"Fournette questionable to return."
And this is why I never, ever draft Fournette.
-
I'd be all over that trade. And I'm a fan of Jamaal Williams as a solid late-round pick, but trading a late round pick for a 3rd round pick is a solid move every day of the week. There's no need to overthink it.
-
I never understand the concept of drafting backups "just in case" the starter goes down, for any league that isn't super deep. If there's an actual starter available, like Mack, why on Earth would you take a guy who may get some action when the other guy has guaranteed action?
-
I just moved him UP to #2 ahead of Bell. Fresh legs, was #1 before injury, going to be solid.
-
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?
Barber or Carson should be taken way sooner than ADP. I'd probably take Barber as Penny may take over for Carson at some point. That may be true too of Jones and Barber but Jones has reportedly been horrible at just about everything thus far. But both are still light years ahead of ADP in my view.

33 years old....had a couple of fantastic games with AZ last season, and a couple of horrible ones.
His "couple of good games" were when they gave him the ball all day long. In those 2 games where he broke 100 yards, he averaged 31.5 carries. That number of carries is not sustainable for anybody really, let alone somebody of his age. So sure, you could hold out hope he'd get a couple games here and there like that where they give him the ball on every play, but you're going to get alot of stinkers in between. I have no problem with people grabbing him as a late round flyer, but don't expect much. I will pass on all Washington RB's, that's for sure.
-
Explaining a preference for Thielen because he had more targets or any other factors last years does not apply when there's a new QB in town who may have different preferences than the old one. Thinking that old injuries have anything to do with current or future health for any player makes no sense.
I'll take Diggs but I can see both sides, as both players are excellent. I just don't buy the injury issue or the angle of who had more targets last year with a different QB.
-
I don't know the answer to that, but in my opinion, the Browns do not need that drama in their offense.
If they don't need drama on their offense, they shouldn't have drafted Baker Mayfield who's a Drama Queen.
-
Is that going off statistical data only, or do they have it factored in that they had some key injuries to their defense??
Well, I'd like to assume that most sites take things like this into consideration in their weekly projections, but I don't actually know that. Perhaps you're right that it's all just statistical without such considerations.
-
You said it.
If you can figure out how to control the out come of football games let us all know.
Merry Christmas
Luke 2:8-14.
Will do. And goodbye to you since I assume you will never visit this site again or any others offering fantasy projections because it's all so meaningless and devoid of useful information.
-
I think that goes for anyone.
There's always a concern about someone under performing.
It depends on who else you have too start.
Dispite anyone opinion, Brady could also have four tds and three hundred yards.
No one knows.
It's all luck.
Well then, why even try at all or visit sites like this? Who knows what will happen

Apparently the "Inside the Matchup" on this site agrees with me.
"Passing Game Thoughts: Let’s play a game. Who has more touchdowns over the past three weeks: Tom Brady or T.J. Yates? I’ll give you a hint. Yates has only played two games in that span. The answer is still T.J. Yates. Brady’s finishes over the past three weeks: QB27, QB23, QB18. If you own Brady, you probably started him. If you somehow made it to your championship game, it was in spite of Brady, not because of him. Against these Bills three weeks ago, Brady had as many touchdown passes as I did. He hasn’t thrown for over 300 yards since Week 11 and four of his six 300+ yard games came in the first five weeks of the season. He’s also thrown at least one interception in four consecutive games. Chris Hogan did not play last week and cannot be trusted even if he is active. Rob Gronkowski’s return made a huge impact last week as he was responsible for 168 of Brady’s 298 yards, leading the team with 13 targets. Brady’s lone touchdown went to Brandin Cooks, who got back on track with 60 yards and a score on four receptions. No one else in the passing game did anything of note. Gronk remains the best TE in the league and Cooks is still a strong start, but I would seriously consider an alternative to Brady if you have one. I am not suggesting to go out and pick up Joe Flacco or Jacoby Brissett, but merely cautioning that Brady is not an auto-start."

I don't see them protecting Brady.
They want home field.
They are still tied record wise with the Steelers.
They need too win this game real bad, if they lose this game and the Steelers beat the Texans they will fall behind them again.
Plus the Jags are only one game back.
Well true, they do need/want to win. My point remains, however, that they likely won't struggle to win against Buffalo regardless of how they orient their offense. They've beat Buffalo 30 out of the last 34 times they've played, for example. And if running the ball is more effective than passing against Buffalo, then focusing on the run is a more likely way to ensure the win. I'm not saying I'm guaranteeing Brady will be a bust this week or anything, just that there seems good reason to me to be somewhat concerned about him lighting it up with a fantasy championship on the line.

I'm starting him over Dak this week
I know when Brady has a bad game against a team he usually follows it up with a big game, or at least he seems to
I know he's been slow the past couple of games but is there really anybody you can expect a big week from more?
Agreed he's big on revenge, but this game is largely meaningless to the Patriots at this point, and considering the strengths and weaknesses of the Buffalo defense and Brady's recent poor performance, I'm not so sure. There's several players I'd play over him. Besides the obvious (Rivers, Roethlisberger, etc.), I'd probably play Nick Foles over him and even consider Case Keenum or Dak. I'd be more comfortable with QB's for teams still fighting for a playoff spot than somebody who has no incentive to throw the rock all day.
-
Brady hasn't exactly lit up the fantasy scoreboard in recent weeks. In my league, he's barely a top 20 QB over the last 3 weeks, throwing for 2 TD's and 4 INT's during that span. His worst game was against Buffalo, who he will be facing again this week. Buffalo's DEF has allowed the fewest TD passes of any team this season, but has allowed the most rushing TD's of any team. For that reason, and considering the Pats probably want to protect Brady for the playoffs, I wouldn't be surprised to see the NE game plan largely involving the run. Therefore, one might temper expectations for his production this week.
Still, I see most project sites, as always, listing him as one of the top 2 to 3 QB's for the week. What do you guys think?
-
TD only league? Also look at jimmys career stats and how they compare between the 2 teams.
Not saying his stats are as good as when he was in NO, but TD's are TD's and worth alot. I'm in a PPR league and despite his lack of receptions, the TD's still weigh supreme, so he's still a TE1.
-
Ugh, I still can't choose between Chicago and the Chargers. Most people on this thread seem to favor the Bears, but most every fantasy projection site I've looked seem to favor the Chargers.
-
Jimmy Graham went from Brees who threw 40 times a game, to a running QB, how is this working out
It's worked out pretty well actually for Graham owners, other than the last couple of weeks. As someone else above stated, he leads all TE's in touchdowns.
Browns trading Hyde to J-Ville

What do you all think this means regarding Hyde's usage for this particular weekend? Today is Friday. The game is on Sunday. Is he playable or will it be too soon for him to get much game action?
