Fearsome 22 Posted November 18, 2015 Thomas, Sanders, Davis, Daniels, Hillman and Anderson...And anyone desperate enough to be an Osweiller owner. Who has the stones to bench them? Especially Thomas and Sanders. I am a Thomas owner that went WR/WR on draft day and also have Dez (shockingly I am 7-3 thanks to Brady ). I am starting Dez this week and play in a standard WR/TE combo league so I have Eifert and Olsen as well. Last week I started Eifert and benched Olsen and got lucky. Thinking of benching Thomas and starting the two TE's opposite Dez. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drizzay 651 Posted November 18, 2015 I am tempted to bench McManus, but Brock seemed to move the ball a bit. I can see them moving down the field and then getting stopped in the red zone once the field shrinks. So now I am second guessing the move. Plus I don't really have anyone to drop for a second kicker. That 1pt that he scored last week killed me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pee-diddy 27 Posted November 18, 2015 I'm starting Hillman and Emanuell Sanders. Luckily they're playing vs. CHI. Not sure about weather. I think he's actually an upgrade over Peyton so what's not to like? In one league I'm even considering Brock as my QB. He could surprise. I think the fact that he got some p.t. last week can only help his comfort level. Did I mention they're playing CHI? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bag-O-Bones 5 Posted November 18, 2015 Staying with Sanders, don't think the running game is going anywhere and Brock has to throw to someone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yseguy22 8 Posted November 18, 2015 I'm not sure Osweiller is that much of a drop off from Manning as you might think. Safeties were really cheating on receivers because Manning was not a threat to beat them deep. Broncos mainly went short crossing routes as a result but recently defenses were even taking that away. At least Osweiller has a live arm. In 1-2 weeks we'll have a better idea of what the Broncos have with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
philmckracken 3 Posted November 18, 2015 Look for Cody Latimer to gain some relevance with Osweiller in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

philmckracken 3 Posted November 18, 2015 Latimer is far from a sure thing, but he has spent a lot of time with Osweiller: Demaryius Thomas led all receivers with eight targets from Osweiler……..Behind Thomas, tight end Vernon Davis and receiver Cody Latimer tied for the second-most targets (four each). http://www.milehighreport.com/2015/11/17/9746254/brock-osweiler-fantasy-add-broncos-qb-and-other-fantasy-targets-for Osweiler’s worked with Green and Cody Latimer so much in training camp, their chemistry is easy to see. As is the youngster’s comfortability with running the offense and being the leader when he’s on the field. http://bsndenver.com/brock-osweiler-making-most-of-make-or-break-preseason/ http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-cant-miss-plays/0ap3000000379303/Pre-Wk-2-Can-t-Miss-Play-Welcome-to-Denver-Latimer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 18, 2015 Osweiler has a CANNON arm. I see a few deep ball chances for Thomas to win those 50/50 balls that Peyton couldn't get down the field. I don't own any of the WR's on Denver, but if I did, I would probably still lean toward starting them. Osweiler can't be any worse than Manning recently.

SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted November 19, 2015 Actually Hillman and CJ Anderson might be adds, I think we see a much more traditional Kubiak team moving forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joeshushu 51 Posted November 19, 2015 I picked up the big O on waivers to replace Brees who is on his bye. I figure what the heck he has some good people to throw to and my other choices were Smith or Hasselbeck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antiramie 50 Posted November 19, 2015 In two leagues: DT - no way I'm benching him McManus - dropped for Santos DEF - starting them over CAR this week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Nice 40 Posted November 19, 2015 Oz is an upgrade over manning. He can actually move in the pocket and can throw the deepball, unlike manning you only threw lame ducks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kent 228 Posted November 19, 2015 Manning was awful. Now you can start your Broncos again. I've been begging for a Manning benching all year. I dropped Manning in one league 3 weeks ago and nobody picked him up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figure what the heck he has some good people to throw to and my other choices were Smith or Hasselbeck. Same here. Oddly enough, I have a good feeling about Osweiler against the Bears. I would hope for 250 yards passing and 2 tds with 30 yards rushing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ray_T 608 Posted November 23, 2015 He looked pretty good, but it was the bears. He will have tougher competition if he stays in as starter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
