Drafted Washington in every league and I've made sure to hold on to him while waiting for this moment. The MJD comparisons aren't crazy and that offensive line is drat good.

Please be true. I need the RB2 help in so many leagues.

Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's Jimmy T.
Why the gently caress would you give Washington more carries when Murray has been really solid so far and your run game is doing well already?

me too but is he startable over CHI's Howard or Will Fuller ina flex?

I realize this is more of a start/sit thread question, but since we are on the topic of Washington...

No it's the right guy.


DEANDRE Washington is on the Raiders

DWAYNE Washington is on the Lions



We can remember this as such:

You can't spell "DeAndre" without "dread" as in, "I would dread to be a visiting fan in Oakland; I would not want to risk my life with gang violence and E-Coli"

"Dwayne" rhymes with "pain" as in "Lions fans live in eternal pain and long for the sweet release of death"



hope this helps

Honestly he's looked the worst out of the 3 so far this year, he's been buoyed by a TD in each game but he's been outplayed by both Richards and Washington from what I've seen.


He's just really inconsistent.

The Raiders opened the season with a three-headed committee at RB. They're telling us what they think of Latavius Murray, despite how efficient he's been with his carries. They're giving their backups plenty of opportunities and I don't think they're too attached to Murray. If someone else is looking better than him on film and in practice, I think that's going to matter more to this staff. Washington had great SS and three-cone times at the combine. He's really good in tight spaces and can explode for longer gains. Offers more as a passing game weapon too. Murray has seen a surprising amount of receptions and could easily cede that work to another back even if he hangs on to a sizable carry share.

I so badly wanted to pick up Powell this week. I traded for Eifert and was going to put him in my IR slot (Yahoo lets you if they're classified as 'out') and grab Powell. But the trade processed on Friday, and Eifert was locked on my bench :(

I was literally about to drop Powell this week and I looked at Forte's usage and was like "eh maybe hang on to him just a little bit longer"

Newton is in the concussion protocol.

I guess trading away Brady for Marvin Jones may prove problematic.

Bummer. Forte is always so much fun to watch.

But yeah, there's a reason Bilal was the highest handcuff on my ww rankings this week. That Jets workhorse back is looking pretty valuable.

I'm going to drop Tate for anyone. The only hesitation I have is that I want a piece of the Lions passing offense, and Tate is probably at least a handcuff for Marvin :sigh:

Honestly that's the only reason why i kept him around this long also was because i have Marvin. But at this point there's less frustrating WR's on the wire that can get me more than 3 points a week.

Woods seems to at least be getting 8-10 targets atm, even if LOLbills.

It's the Charles Sims paradox.

It's nuts he's only getting 15 carries a game. I just shuttled him off in a trade last week and he of course exploded, but it was again only 15 carries. Hue just won't give him volume.

Somewhat related, I wish Fuller hadn't been so pooed on in dynasty rankings and discussion. I could've grabbed him at like pick 10 or 11 in almost every league, but everyone had him pegged as a drop machine who'd get 3 targets a week, giving you a donut or 2-70, and uh that doesn't sound appealing.

I, too, wish all the pre-season fantasy football projections that I believed were true, and conversely the ones I didn't believe or which I couldn't take advantage of were totally wrong.

Yeah, me too. Or maybe wish that I'd taken a look at the Texans depth chart behind Hopkins more closely, how highly Fuller was drafted, and how valuable WRs are in dynasty in general, and taken a shot on him. In conclusion, gently caress you!

Today I played:

Stafford (vs CHI)
MJJ (vs CHI)
Hilton (vs JAX)
T. Benjamin (vs NO)
Sims
Crowell
Kelce
Cooks (vs SD)
J. Tucker
Denver DST

So far TWO of those motherfuckers (Crowell and Denver) have beaten their projections so far. I also left Matt Ryan on the bench since he was playing Carolina. Oh, and the guy I'm playing has AJG, Leveon, and Jordan Reed.

Fantasy football: why must you be such a butt
