I swallowed a bug

I've got Walker (vs NE) and Reed (vs Buffalo) for potential TE's. They're projected less than a point within one another. Walker has been good to me this season, and it seems that he consistently beats projections, but NE defense is beastly (4th least points to TEs versus Buffalo's 10th least). Should I go ahead and play Reed?

Play Reed. Walker is TEN's best weapon, and NE's MO is to take away their opponent's biggest strength. See DeAndre Hopkins last week for reference.

If you're waiting that long, see if Eifert is playing and if he is, drop Heath. Just make sure you have plenty of options between Sunday night and Monday Night for kickers. If I saw my opponent was trying to pull something like this and he only had one or two kicker options I would think hard about snagging them.

Yeah this is probably what I'll do. I'm not too worried about him grabbing kickers since the benches are so short and no one goes on waivers.

Fair enough, you guys are probably absolutely right. Thanks for the perspective. Norman just scares me is all, and I don't want to blow it this close to the end against an opponent who's much better than his record suggests.

I can't believe I'm now deciding between FJax, Bryce Brown, Fozzy, and Turbin for my RB2.

Leperflesh

I have to decide between Charles Sims, Alfred Morris, and Tim Hightower. .5 ppr espn standard with return yards.

Sims has been reliable for around 4 to 10 points, but is playing on thursday. Morris has been unreliable but finally got a touchdown so maybe he's on an uptick? And Hightower went big last week but you know, he's an unknown quantity really, and also he's a Saint.

I'm leaning Hightower. It's the semifinals and I need this win and due to Dalton dying I'm forced to start Matt Ryan (backup is Blaine Gabbert, argh).

Alshon Jeffery, I have put up with your poo poo this whole season. Amazingly I managed to still be in first place after all the times you graced the top of my bench.

If you can't just suck up your 294 minor injuries and play this drat game and next week I am never drafting you again.

Picked up both Whitaker and Tolbert for this week, so I'm good to go with whoever starts against the Giants.

This is for a Flex position I'm taking away from Emmanuel Sanders, because I'm going with loving Tim Hightower and Matt Jones in RB slots. :getin:

Thanks, I'm pretty torn at this point on Julius or Miller. Julius has had a great stretch the last few weeks combined with Arob and Hurns drawing coverages, Miller probably has the volume advantage though.

Unless it's Artis-Payne that steals all the carries? I'm leaning towards avoiding the situation altogether.

I've been riding Phil Rivers all year but he's starting to trail off. I picked up Alex Smith. Who do you think would score me more points? Phil vs Mia or Alex vs Baltimore. Also does anyone have any inside info on Edelman coming back?

Well I just stashed CMike and Bryce Brown (my opponent sniped both Bolden and Robinson from me last night since he knew I didn't have the FAAB money). I dropped Yeldon and Funchess. Any idea if either of them will be worthwhile starters or is it still too soon to tell?

Too soon for any of the RBs outside of Robinson. I picked up both Panthers and cmike to stop others from using them against me though :v:

My friend's brother's old frat buddy's gardener told him that Bryce Brown is telling friends that he is extremely upset with the signing of Christine Michael. Sources say Michael is in line to start and be the every down back for Seattle. Michael is a SPARX athlete with the testicular fortitude that lead to his loving parents naming him "Christine".

To sign them is my real test

With full no movement clause
I really hope that CMike gets either ignored on the wire and/or stashed without sniffing anyone's lineup and then puts up like 150 yards and 3 scores during championship week.

And then put Whitaker in the RB slot, and flex Sanders? Is that what you're suggesting?

Sanders has just been bad the past few weeks, I feel like he's not clicking with Ostweiler at all.

The dude I'm playing this week started Rawls and Blount last week.

This morning he had in Fred Jackson and Shaun Draughn, but now he's shifted to Isaiah Crowell and Bilal Powell.

I started the season with Jamaal Charles and J-Stew (and Dion Lewis) and am now starting Tim Hightower and Bryce Brown.

The winner of this matchup will be playinh for $280.
