Gobias Ind. posted:You don't drop Ivory just because you're not going to start him; he's much morel likely to come back and haunt you if your opponent grabs him. CAP is the better drop. If I recall correctly he's in an 8 team league, which means both he and his opponent almost certainly have better options to start than Ivory, Ivory's been alternating decent games with 3/4 point ones for 2 months now. The idea of starting him in a championship vs. NE is terrifying. I'd rather start Bilal Powell in any PPR. CAP is a better drop, I'm just saying Ivory has little value for him.

Here are my championship start-sit dilemmas. Current choices are in bold but I lack any confidence whatsoever. Standard: WR, pick 2: Hurns @ NO, DeSean Jackson @ PHI, Sanders vs CIN. RB, pick 1: Denard Robinson @ NO, Karlos Williams vs DAL, Lacy @ ARI, Hightower vs JAC, Powell vs NE, Artis-Payne @ ATL. Half-PPR: Choose 3: Lamar Miller vs IND, Powell vs NE, Denard Robinson @ NO, Hightower vs JAC, Draughn @ DET, Diggs vs NYG, Starks @ ARI. Suggestions?

You know the season's been crazy when you have: Eddie Lacy, LeSean McCoy, Odell Beckham Jr. and Andrew Luck all on your bench for the final game of the year.

With OBJ out, does that push Will Tye up above Benjamin Watson (at Jax) as a starting TE?

OBJ being out means I am flexing Christine Michael in my cash league championship.  Also Alshon better play, because if he's out too then I might have to roll out one of Javorius, Lacy, or Ajayi.

Just took a look at the lineup I am starting in the championship game and there is literally one person from my draft guaranteed to start and that is AB84. I might bench Lamar Miller for Gurley or Cameron Artis-Payne, what in the gently caress? And this is starting Hightower and Karlos Williams already. And to piggyback onto the above poster, Jeffrey better loving play because otherwise I am trotting out Tyler Lockette (Unless Stevie plays). What in the hell is going on this year?

A) Lockett is my OBJ replacement already, so quit complaining, it could be worse! B) I'd start him over Stevie J even if Stevie is healthy. C) It looks like Doug Baldwin may be hurt. See B) above.

Though, without Andy Dalton, we don't get a Primetime Andy fuckup special. Stick with Denver, I say. I've made most of my decisions for the finals, but I'm having some RB woes thanks to JStew sitting out. A few questions (for different leagues, thank christ) Is Artis-Payne gonna be a better start than Danny Woodhead? (No PPR) Who out of Bryce Brown, Mike Gillislee, Darren Sproles, or picking up Christine Michael is the best choice? (No PPR) Also, am I a crazy person to not start Lamar Miller if I have Denard, Bilal, and Charcandrick? (PPR)

Oh my God if Baldwin's out too then I'm truly hosed. And I'm even going up against the 4th place team. What a terrible setup for a championship game  Starting:  Bench:  Anybody I should pick up in desperation (0.5 ppr/6pt TDs)?  edit: the 8th place team got mad and blew his budget taking Artis-Payne and CMike which is why they're not on there.

Is this getting too cute? I don't want to Sit My Studs, but my "studs" this year have been anything but consistent. Pick 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 flex, half PPR: Bilal Powell vs NE James White @ NYJ Lamar Miller vs IND Danny Woodhead @ OAK Tim Hightower vs JAC Deandre Hopkins @ TEN Demaryius Thomas vs CIN Allen Hurns @ NO Kamar Aiken vs PIT Emmanuel Sanders vs CIN Rueben Randle @ MIN Dez Bryant @ BUF Opponent has Peterson and Ben Watson (both questionable), and just flipped Beckham for Jordan Matthews, Martavis Bryant, and a 1st rounder (dynasty league), so I think I really just need solid floors and not necessarily spectacular ceilings.

So my improbable 6-7 8th seed team is in the championship and currently the projections have me winning 180 to 165 lol. 1 PPR with bonus for 40 yard receptionlol QB: Brady WR: Alshon Jeffrey WR: Eric Decker RB: David Johnson RB: Danny Woodhead TE: ASJ WRT: Brandin Cooks K: Prater DEF: KC D: Wagner D: Stephone Anthony LB: Shea McClellin S: HAHA Clinton Dix BN: Edelman, Michael Floyd, Chris Ivory, Randall Cobb, John Brown, Karlos Williams If Alshon Glassrey sits, i would probably start Floyd. But i'm scared of Woodhead mostly, he did just put up 4 touchdowns, but gently caress the chargers. Bilal Powell is available, so i could grab and start him. Also for TE, I can either stay with ASJ or grab Ertz off the FA. Thoughts?

I'm shocked by how many people have the courage to start CMike in their championship games. I'm definitely too wary of a dud final week performance after he finally Gets His Chance as the ultimate punchline to the running Christine Michael joke that's been going all season long.

Thoughts on my final decisions? In both leagues I'm waffling over TT vs Cousin. Right now, I am splitting the difference so I'm not hosed if Cousins plays like poop. In that league, my opponent has OBJ so I'm not as worried about a dud. 0.5 ppr Keeper league (so that's why my bench is so bad) and defense uses IDP scoring Thoughts on Broncos or Steelers D/ST? Cousins vs TT?  Redraft, 0.5ppr I have no clue what to do here. Debating Maclin over Watkins. Possibly Hightower over Lockett. Cousins vs TT?  89 posted:Pick 2: I feel ya. RIP McCoy and Bell (and I was an even bigger idiot for dropping Muscle Hamster in week 2 or so). I'd go with Williams and White. LmaoTheKid posted:The bigger joke would be all the times we ripped into him for being a football dummy and he balls out for 3 TDs and 130 yards on championship weekend. That would be amazing  Hazo posted:12 teams. And I misspoke, he's actually in 9th and eliminated. He was the only one to even make waiver bids/claims this week. I guess I could bring it up to the commissioner but it's a pretty chill league so I honestly don't think he expected someone to do that, even if it's technically legal (I know some people in this thread said they've actively tried to spoil the seasons for the winners so I'm not gonna judge-- I probably should have been more assertive with CMike and A-P on my end). I always make moves to gently caress playoffs teams when I'm out because gently caress you guys

He played so-so against the eagles and Dallas defense is better than theirs. Between Steelers and Broncos it's really a toss up.They will have the same score I bet. Keep Watkins in over Maclin. I trust him a tiny bit more though both are streaky. Hightower for safety, Lockett for a chance at big numbers. MacheteZombie posted:I hate to keep asking but I still can't decide if I should start Latavius, haha. Ok, my rule is don't play dolpins players so that's one down. Latavius got good numbers last time they played. Check Ware's status this week and if they say good things start Latavius. If not start Charmander. Or start Latavius if you want a safe 11+ points without risk.

I'm in the playoffs in a 10 team, standard scoring league w/ 3wr, 2br and no flex. I'm not sure who to start as a 2nd rb. Latavius murray gets the start at rb 1. 2nd options are Christine michael, javorius allen, Cameron artis-payne, and frank gore. Hate to start gore, but with the match up it seems best. Yes, I have great wr's and a great qb which is how I made it to the championship. Any advice is appreciated.
