madd futher mucker 36 Posted October 20, 2013 Â Everyone has to be a comedian. Â Since you are the spanker I'm guessing you will be first in line to grab cox now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted October 20, 2013 Funny stuff. However, back to the thrust of your assertion about Cox........ Â With TB's run offense similar to NYG's, and with Cox reported to have issues with pass protection, what would lead you to believe that Cox would be the better plug and play? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madd futher mucker 36 Posted October 20, 2013 I only took him in a non-ppr league where otherwise i'd be forced to play McGahee. My opponent has a really decimated line-up and i expect to win regardless there. So I might as well have some fun with this. Besides he's more familiar with the plays and the system than Hillis at this point. I just hope he doesn't completely stiff me when it comes to fantasy points.

stonewall 647 Posted October 20, 2013 Gutsy calls are what makes this pursuit of ours interesting.......and Maddening. Although I would roll with Hillis on TD potential alone, I like the call. Â Good luck this weekend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Football Guru 212 Posted October 20, 2013 Brings to mind the team name for my title-winning big-money team last year, although it was a different Mike Cox (FB from Atlanta). Â Turner Over, Mike Cox is ready. Â I snagged this rookie in both of my experts' leagues this week (one dynasty, one redraft) and two of my four money leagues (may add him in a third if I can part with Durham or Cobb). If Jacobs is out, I suspect Cox will be the early-down back and Hillis will be the third-down option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xbishopx 6 Posted October 20, 2013 White Rhino Returns! Â I was hoping the Giants picked him up when he left the Browns a few years back, he's a perfect fit for their system. Big back, great hands, good in pass protection. Basically a Jacobs who can catch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

da_mane_man 1 Posted October 20, 2013 giants fan here. i picked him up before jacobs re-injured his hammy. i think he's going to surprise some people. i remember being impressed with him in preseason (small sample size) and he WAS a draft pick after all. it's not like he's some guy off the street. Â now that being said, i'm not sure what to expect fantasy-wise this week. idk how many reps they're going to give him, although i can't imagine hillis coming in and getting more than 5 touches in less than a week with the team. i mainly picked him up so i wouldn't have to fight for him on waivers next week. i'm prob going to play snelling over him (ppr).

Â Minny is easier to pass against than run, although giving up 110 yds per game and 6 TDs. I doubt Cox gets goal line carries, but who really knows this? He's a 7th round draft choice who hasn't played a play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TennisMenace 156 Posted October 20, 2013 One more thing - Andre Brown returns in week 10 and the Gmen have a bye in week 9. You may only get two weeks at best, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted October 20, 2013 For those Cox watchers out there...........  Jacobs had a setback so Cox along with Hillis will be performing 2 RBs and 1 cup with the Giants' load this week.  http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/nfl/273592/brandon-jacobs-appears-to-have-had-a-setback  So if you're desperate, grab Cox like you're George Michael or Elton John.

MDC 5,892 Posted October 22, 2013 I'm grabbing some Cox. He's going to be huge this year - stock definitely on the rise. Maybe Cox isn't the biggest or hardest runner but nobody is better at pounding it into the end zone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
