Lost OBJ. .5ppr; distance bonuses (the longer the TD, the more the points. Also: points per yard start to increase above the typical milestones (100yds for RB and WR; 300 for QB).

 

Defense scores 10 points for shutout, to zero for allowing 24+ points. 2 pts/ea for INT, FUM, SACK + 6 pts + yardage for pick 6/kick/punt returns. Last week NE scored 25 points as an example.

 

I have what I think are a decent number of good choices, but I need to get this right:

 

START ONE:

Bortles @ NO <--has done well. Can NO keep scoring, to keep Bortles scoring?

Big Ben @ BAL. <--has done even better. Can BAL keep scoring, to keep Roethlisberger scoring?

 

START TWO:

DMartin vs CHI <--premier matchup

Shoelace @ NO <--like this matchup, but he's got a bit of an ankle

Gore @ MIA <--Gore has been solid, and I think MIA has given up

Artis-Payne @ ATL <--another good matchup - if he gets the reps. Will Cam play the whole game?

Langford @ TB <--splitting time, but holding his own

 

START TWO:

OBJ = dumbass

Edelman (doubtful) @ NYJ

Maclin vs CLE <--is KC going to have to throw much?

Diggs vs NYG <--supposed to be very cold, but AP may not play

Lockett vs STL <--with Baldwin gametime decision, I'm liking this play

Parker vs IND. <--Landry will likely play. This lessens Parker's appeal

 

START ONE:

Reed @ PHI

Walker vs HOU

 

FLEX START ONE:

Pick a remaining RB/WR/TE

 

Santos v CLE

 

START ONE:

NE D/ST @ NYJ

DET D/ST vs SF

 

I put this in the form of a poll, so your thoughts plus who you would pick @ FLEX would be valuable additional input. TIA - I'll respond to your questions as well.

Right now, I'm torn between Bortles and Ben, but - because I'm leaning towards playing Shoelace as one of my RBs (or FLEX), I think that Ben may be smart (I'll watch the weather).

 

@ RB, Martin is a no-brainer, then Shoelace and CAP or Gore (I like Gore vs MIA, where he went to school - but their scoring has fallen off a bit lately).

 

Maclin vs CLE is an easy matchup, but CLE may not score enough to keep up. I do have Santos.

I like Lockett as explosive game-breaker, especially if Baldwin is out. I don't think Wilson zeroes in on Kearse like he has Baldwin

I started Diggs last week, and it paid off. If AP is gimpy, I can see Diggs getting his against a weak backfield - but it's going to be COLD

DeVante is more of a hope/prayer thing. If Landry was out, he's move waaaay up for me.

 

Reed has been close to the best TE in FF lately. Can't sit. Walker has been great too, and could be a FLEX - but HOU is playing for something.

 

NE D/ST scored a ton for me last week. NYJ always plays them tough.

DET D/ST is a juicy matchup, with a hurt Draughn and a crappy QB to face. I like them pinning their ears back, and I like playing home Ds.

Vote is in.

 

Ben, Martin, Shoelace, Maclin, Reed, Det. for sure. Lockett/Diggs probably about even if Baldwin plays. Bump up Lockett if he's out. Walker at flex if he's healthy. Should be a target monster for Mettenberger. Diggs Sunday night is a good ace in the hole.

 

My league's offensive scoring is the same yours. I should have been more detailed in my post.

 

Good luck.
