jrec15 9 Posted October 12, 2014 #1 pickup for me in all my leagues this week. Kicking myself for not picking him up before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 12, 2014 Guys, this madness will only stop once he cracks a starting lineup for one of us. We hold his fate in our hands. A couple weeks ago it was funny. Last week it became a little unnerving. This week it's getting downright spooky. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderHaters Revenge 3,566 Posted October 12, 2014 keep him benched...Ill start him and see if I can have luck, if he does, then someone else try the following week lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted October 12, 2014 I had him on the roster then dropped him for someone else. FML...................can't make any right calls this season (other than Flacco today ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo312 41 Posted October 12, 2014 What's it now...like 7 TD's? He got some soft hands too; nice catch and burn.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youre 100% wrong because i started him in 5 leagues this week and 3 last week. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuse9 128 Posted October 12, 2014 What's it now...like 7 TD's? He got some soft hands too; nice catch and burn.. 5 TD's on the year: 41, 38, 48, 54 and 74 yards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted October 12, 2014 yep youve been pumping him up for weeks is Theo Riddick then next Antone? I would say no. Hes not dynamic like antone. Riddick is nice if he gets good touches, but he doesnt have the same ability as antone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldMaid 1,838 Posted October 12, 2014 Youre 100% wrong because i started him in 5 leagues this week and 3 last week. I just snagged him off the waiver wire a couple of days ago. Left him on my bench for Asiata and Ellington. I'll prolly start him next week, and he'll end up sucking... YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!@#! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 12, 2014 Youre 100% wrong because i started him in 5 leagues this week and 3 last week.I don't think the juju counts for you since you were advocating for him. It has to be someone who is a non believer who takes the plunge thinking he has struck gold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nailed it. told you guys, as soon as one of us falls for the hype and takes the plunge the curse hits. FBN was campaigning for him for a few weeks so he didnt count.

ricanrockers 39 Posted October 21, 2014 Going to drop Smith this week. Atlanta uses all of its RBs and only give Smith about 5 touches. Not enough touches for me to roster or use him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seadog54 20 Posted October 22, 2014 1 bad game, and people are jumping off the bandwagon. atlanta at some point will realize they need to give him the ball more to have a chance at winning and i believe it will happen as the season progresses. even the owner is head over heels for antone smith. he's not startable, but worth a hold imo.

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted October 22, 2014 Yeah he was the 9th best rb heading into last week. 1 week he doesnt break a long one and thats it, will never happen again. Its amazing that some owners held him, while refusing to start him, almost just praying he had a bad game so they wouldnt feel bad about dropping him. One week he is awesome, the next week mike smith must be right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just dont get why someone would add him, and then after 1 game decide he is done and drop him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Squintz82 45 Posted October 23, 2014 Sorry wasnt directed at you. You are correct it was the right thing to bench him. I just dont get why someone would add him, and then after 1 game decide he is done and drop him. Because there has been no increase in his usage, even after Mike Smith saying they need to get him more involved. He will not continue the trend of a long TD every week due to his lack of touches. He's worth a hold if he starts getting more than 5 touches a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reliability, just dont get how owners can drop him after 1 unproductive week. Dropping the 9th best rb going into last week. Its a lottery ticket in case mike smith realizes he wants to do something to avoid being fired. He is a stupid coach so expecting anything to change is a long shot, but you never know.

With brutal week 9-11 byes, I personally can't afford the bench space for a hold that I'm not comfortable starting yet. Probably a likely scenario. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seadog54 20 Posted October 23, 2014 Ranked 15th RB in my league, 2 bad weeks out of 7 weeks. That's consistency even with little touches. Yeah it might not continue but I can't imagine that there is not a bench spot open for the 15th best fantasy RB in the league right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 20 Posted October 23, 2014 It's either Smith or Bryce Brown. Yes it's that bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
