General NFL Fantasy Discussion and Tipping

[Mat0369]

I picked Matt Forte in my Moneyball team and had no idea I did that.

[Rusty00]

Trying to decide between Carr/Stafford + Antonio Brown or Eli + AJ Green for my draftstars team this week?

Green has torched the Steelers in the past but surely they put all their efforts into stopping him this week?

I'd love to be able to free up some cash to afford Eli + Antonio Brown :-\

I'd go with the first option, Carr and Stafford should both torch mediocre defences and Brown > Green. If I had to pick one of those I'd go with Carr because the falcons gave up 4 TDs to Winston, and Carr is a better QB than him

[Mat0369]

Stafford has averaged 20 fantasy points per game since Jim Bob Cooter (that name makes me laugh) was named the OC. I have Eli in for 300 yards, 3 TD's and 1 INT. That's about 22 points in standard leagues. If Stafford is averaging 20 you're you're not looking that far off. I still think AB>AJ just because of his floor with Big Ben under center. Have you got OBJ in the team?

[Rusty00]

Thanks guys, I have the Carr/Brown combo at this stage and yes is I have OBJ as well :)

[Mat0369]

I just noticed my Moneyball lineup is locked in.

Team in that is

Eli
Forte (29.90)
Spencer Ware (Charles is supposed to miss again)
Brown
OBJ
Benjamin
Julius Thomas
Tucker
Philly

I like my chances this week with that lineup.

Sportsdeck team is

Eli
Rivers
Zeke
Jennings
Ware
CJ Anderson
AB
OBJ
AJ
Jordy
Benjamin
Sharpe
Olsen
Dwayne Allen
Baltimore
Tucker

I just created a Draftstars team as well.

Stafford
Ware
CJ Anderson
Brown
OBJ
Olsen
DeAngelo Williams
Travis Benjamin
Ravens

I also need a captain for my salary cap team. I have Rodgers currently but he hasn't put up huge yardage totals vs the Vikes the last two seasons. Luck is my other QB and the game against Denver could go either way. Am I crazy for thinking OBJ?

[Mat0369]

With Ivory out again, Yeldon could be an awesome play against the Chargers Swiss cheese run D

I like Yeldon as well this week.

Current Draftstars team

Carr
CJ Anderson
Rashad Jennings
OBJ
Brown
Pitta
Tyrell Williams
Yeldon
Pats


OBJ wouldn't be the worst captain option this week.

[Mat0369]

My initial lineup had Pitta in it but it depends on his health considering he is still questionable. It's a dislocated finger as well which doesn't give me confidence that he will be ok catching the ball.

I have also grabbed Benjamin over Williams because I think Benjamin is a home run threat. I'm considering swapping that to Yeldon.

I looked up Williams stats against the Bengals last year and he scored a TD in every game and 2 TD's in the last one they played. I think as long as Bell is out he is almost must start if he is cheap enough

I don't think Draftstars have updated his injury status from last week as he is not listed on any other injury report, including on the Ravens website ;)

[Mat0369]

I just saw he is not on the report. I still really like Olsen this week against the 9'ers but I'll see if I can turn Benjamin into a better player.

[PowerBug]

KB13 will get 5 TDs tonight, you can't get an upgrade on him..

[Mat0369]

I've got Benjamin in my salary cap team and my sportsdeck daily fantasy team. I think he and Olsen are going to have a field day against the 9'ers. 100 yards and a TD each.

Gut feel call, Hawks lose to the Rams this week. Is it worth flipping the tip?
