birdiepop22 6 Posted November 30, 2018 Prepping for FF playoffs, do you guys stash Malcolm Brown? Given the Rams current record Im thinking theyll rest Gurley to be ready for NFL playoffs. So, do you guys think its a good idea to grab Brown in case Gurley gets benched? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted November 30, 2018 Not so sure if they will a actually bench him. I don’t see him missing an entire game. So if you did pick up Brown how much time would he spend playing. And if the Rams bench Gurley, what if they also bench Woods and Cooks and Goff, how much quality is there left on the field for Brown to have success on the field. I think Brown is worthy on a handcuff Incase of a injury to Gurley. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mile High Magic 8 Posted November 30, 2018 I picked him up to keep him from gurley owner who I will most likely face in playoffs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

polecatt 402 Posted November 30, 2018 With home field advantage now in their control, I don't see them benching Gurley Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ehlana 25 Posted November 30, 2018 If you have the roster space, I'd pick him up, but it would be a wise move to cover your ass, not b/c I think Gurley's in any danger of being rested. I could see Gurley sitting a 4th quarter of a blowout or something, but I don't see him sitting a whole game where you'd want to start Brown. If your championship game is week 17 though I guess it could happen. But they still need to finish ahead of the Saints for homefield advantage so my guess is it goes till the final game.

tanatastic 2,061 Posted November 30, 2018 They won’t bench Gurley, even if they did it would be a committee. I’ve even seen plenty of people say the other guy is the clear guy to cuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Cubs 132 Posted November 30, 2018 Nope. My super bowl is week 16. Outside of a injury I don't see him having a big roll until maybe week 17. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FantasyRetard 49 Posted November 30, 2018 I've had Brown almost all season (we have 22 roster spots with 11 starting positions). That being said, the Rams are in contention for the #1 seed, now holding the spot due to the Saints loss last night. I don't see the Rams benching Gurley until after they've clinched that seed. After having gone to New Orleans once, I'm sure they don't want to go back. Count on Gurley playing nearly all offensive snaps and being heavily involved. The game at Chicago is a huge one next Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted November 30, 2018 I have had Brown stashed most of the year. He is a must stash as long as a necessary piece isn't sacrificed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaChup 154 Posted December 1, 2018 Benching Gurley is mysoginist at best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadianfan 76 Posted December 3, 2018 the only way the Rams even consider benching gurley (and they probably still won't) is if they clinch first seed by week 15. Pretty unlikely considering saints are one game back and own the tie-breaker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadianfan 76 Posted December 3, 2018 Rams are losing this week @ the bears straight up. And I hate the bears Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted December 3, 2018 I hope so. Keeps Gurley on the field. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Blue 06 195 Posted December 3, 2018 If you have space, grab him, but I think the Rams will want that #1 seed. With New Orleans on their heels with the tie breaker, the Rams will want to keep winning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joneo 529 Posted December 5, 2018 So who is the next guy on their list should they rest Gurley?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CornKobb 48 Posted December 5, 2018 Justin Davis? then John Kelly....rookie? its on the depth chart here at fftoday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joneo 529 Posted December 5, 2018 Justin Davis? then John Kelly....rookie? its on the depth chart here at fftoday. But has one of them seen any action so we know which one they will choose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CornKobb 48 Posted December 5, 2018 But has one of them seen any action so we know which one they will choose? no idea. sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AintNoStoppinMeNow 68 Posted December 5, 2018 So who is the next guy on their list should they rest Gurley?? If I'm taking a shot on either it's John Kelly because of how well he played in the preseason but he has also been inactive every single week. Unfortunately, we can't wait until the actives/inactives list comes out to see who McVay activates since they play on Sunday night so I'll take a stab at the upside in Kelly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
