LSUtiger 9 Posted September 21, 2011 The guy was solid against a good NYJ team in week 1 and terrible last week v. SF in week 2. Now with the separated shoulder, do you start him in week 3 if it looks like he's going to play on Monday? The problem is he plays Monday night. With my only other viable option being Woodhead @ BUF (just lost Charles for season), I'll have to decide whether to roll with Woody in a good matchup or wait for Felix to potentially rip my heart out on MNF. What are you Felix owners doing as of now? Most reports are saying he's "planning to play"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Gladstone 33 Posted September 21, 2011 I'm not playing him, but I have plenty of other options at my flex. Assuming you're in a standard league, I would probably give Woodhead the start over him. Jones could get hit wrong on the first series and you're staring at a goose egg. If in a PPR league I would definitely start Woodhead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apollo Creed 9 Posted September 21, 2011 Im trying to trade fragile felix... Im strong @ RB so he's gonna sit until he performs and then hes getting the boot.. Thought this could be his year but two weeks in and he's hurt already... Hes not tough enough to be on my fantasy team. Lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CapsFan1 0 Posted September 21, 2011 I am worried about the Monday night start and what happens if he is a late scratch or early out from aggravating the shoulder. I may regret not starting him but I have to admit my initial confidence in Felix is beginning to fade and I am a Cowboys fan. I would love to see him have a great game or two so I can sell high. I bought him hoping for a breakout season but at this point I really like the rest of my team and just worry about getting consistent if not spectacular production from my RB2 slot. I will probably start Thomas who hopefully is the real breakout RB that I was hoping Felix would be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lowman 4 Posted September 21, 2011 I am sitting him and praying he does good so I can hope he will produce some other time when I have the sac to start him again. I will start either Helu or D.Nelson in his spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have other options so his injury, while unfortunate, shouldn't hurt me. 1 good game & bye bye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harry_hood 1 Posted September 21, 2011 I dropped him for d nelson. I have ap, tate, matthews, and sproles at rb (1 ppr). i may have jumped the gun a little early, but he'll either sit, get re-injured, or split most of the carries with murray/choice because of his shoulder. I don't want any part of that fragile offense right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted September 21, 2011 Benching him for Tate the great this week and hopefully the rest of the year. Amen brother! Preach it! Hopefully Tate is here to stay. Isn't Foster in a contract year? If so, Houston has leverage not to play him to lower his price. IRT Felix; I had a seperated shoulder 20 years ago and it hurt moving it at all for the first week or so. Hard to believe the guy will be effective even if he can play.

justforbeer 41 Posted September 21, 2011 COWBOYS = TEAM INJURY They are a mess! I would avoid Felix. I actually dropped him for R. Mathews in a league PPR & combined yards. Sometimes when the deck is stacked against you, you should go to another table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
