Captain Goomy Noomy Roo 47 Posted October 29, 2015 not at all. between coming back from injury and Seattle being the top passing defense I am starting Diggs. Sure it is not a question if you are deciding between Dez and Diggs... this week you go Diggs. For some who may not have as tasty an alternative as Diggs... they may have to step up to the plate and take a swing... Dez. Question is "Who are we playing while sitting Dez this week" or "Who are we going to bench while playing Dez this week" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tuxedosam 4 Posted October 29, 2015 I have Dez, Lafell, Austin and Snead to choose from Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted October 29, 2015 I don't own him (tried to, but failed) but I wouldn't start Dez this week. Lots of things working against him, particularly Cassel (in general), Cassel still learning the system, Seahawks defense, and the possibility of a snap count. I typically like to wait a week when a player is coming from a long-term injury to see how they hold up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperSteelers 1 Posted October 29, 2015 After further consideration, I have decided to replace Dez with Austin in my starting lineup. PPR. Reasons: Richard Sherman and Matt Cassel. If Romo was healthy it would be a no brainer for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thewrathofkuhn 40 Posted October 29, 2015 I have Edelman, Landry, Evans and Dez. So Evans versus Dez. If Dez is a full participant by Friday I'd be apt to give him a go. Or not. I'm sure whoever I don't start will have more points. Also, check out his practice yesterday, cutting, jumping. (save for that weird incompletion at :33 – then again, it was probably Cassel)http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000568112/article/dez-bryant-i-had-a-great-day-of-practice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

American Chewy 98 Posted October 30, 2015 will be deciding between dez(bad matchup), moncrief(bad matchup), and mi.floyd(good matchup but prob only if j.brown doesn't play). Also could flex him over J.Hill(bad matchup). leaning moncrief at wr because morgan is supposedly going to cover hilton so could be a high target garbage game for moncrief. honestly if dez wasn't facing the #1 defense vs wr's i prob would roll him no matter what and may still if i like what i read the next few days. still...tough to put him out there blindly...this is as much a play against cassel vs the seahawks as anything else. ***edit*** likely start dez at flex over j.hill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,591 Posted October 30, 2015 Don't see how you can roll with Dez even if he was not coming back from a injury , Cassel is going to have a really bad game vs the Hawks def . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snatchit 108 Posted October 30, 2015 Hawks are a different team on the road and I see A LOT of 3 and outs from Wilson. The D will be wore out by the 2nd half Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joeH 6 Posted October 30, 2015 Rolling with him. No other choice, as 2 of my WRs are on a bye this week. Best on the wire is Nate Washington, and I'd have to drop a rb to start him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
American Chewy 98 Posted October 30, 2015 Annoying that he's in a 3:25pm game....my best options to replace him are in noon games. May have to bench him in this scenario as I could still see him being a late scratch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thewrathofkuhn 40 Posted October 30, 2015 Listed as questionable. I believe from his comments versus the team's that he'll sit. He says he'd go if it were up to him, but that's usually a sign he's been given a red light.At any rate, the guys at dallascowboys.com believe he'll play, but you have to believe a light snap count (20? 30? RZ only?) if he does. With the late start time I'm waiting until next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMMensaMind 460 Posted October 31, 2015 At this point, I'm moving Maclin from FLEX to WR to start him along side OBJ and sit Dez. I hate HATE Cassel's delivery. Something about what he does with rolling his wrist when he delivers the ball makes it look like it has nothing on it; like it was misthrown. Hate it. HATE it. C'mon Romo: come back soon. I don't think I can start Dez with that limp wrist throwing him the ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think I can start Dez with that limp wrist throwing him the ball. Agreed! I mean, this interception where he targeted Williams in the end zone may be one of the worst in recent memory. Williams had 3 yards on the guy and Cassel released it when Williams was at the 25. He basically arm punted the ball to the 2 yard line form the 45. Even Dez isn't getting that ball (and would probably lose his mind if it happened.) I see Cassel being benched after this weekend. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sirensong 111 Posted October 31, 2015 not at all. between coming back from injury and Seattle being the top passing defense I am starting Diggs. SEA is 3rd in passing defense, having gotten lit up by foles (297yds) and dalton (331 yds), plus yielding solid performances to newton (267) and rodgers (249). thier ranking is almost entirely due to clausen's absurd 63 yard day and kap's 124 yard day. i'm not suggesting that anyone start dez--if nothing else, he will see limited snaps, and will be the focus of the defense any time he is on the field. but one needs to make decisions for the right reasons, not a glance at a simple average. SEA's secondary is quite vulnerable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cousinal111 57 Posted October 31, 2015 Also going with the other WR Bryant, Martavius. Martavis Bryant is a must start going forward. He is arguably a Top 10 WR with Roethlisberger back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
