Have a flex spot to fill and I currently have Terrance West in it. Would you prefer any of these guys I can pick up over him? 0 PPR

Garcon @ PHI
Brandon Marshall @ SF
Vereen v DAL
Forsett @ TEN

I would keep Terrance West personally, but pick up Forsett if I have the space.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess I'll roll with West unless Reed is ruled out and then pick up Garcon.

Yeah I know there's a weekly sit start thread but my question was about add/drop decisions. Does that sort of question belong there too?

No one remembers to bookmark the sit start thread when there's a new one every week.

gently caress Julio has given me so much trouble this year i'd rather have OBJ or Evans.

Evans was picked pretty early in the second round in my league and I tried so hard to peel him off the guy who took him, even offering my first pick (Hopkins). He wouldn't budge.

Including their opponents this week makes it a sit/start question.

Where I come from, there's no such thing as kryptonite.
I managed to get some found money in the form of Ajayi, Howard and Tyrell Williams this season.

Unfortunately, not enough to make up for brutal weeks early in the year and I'm on the outside looking in. Has the TE position been especially barren this year, or is it just me?

Fedorowitcz, Hunter Henry, Vance McDonald, and uhhhh... Bennett has been useful while Gronk's been hurt maybe more than some folks expected, Jack Doyle is surprisingly high in TE ranks.

e. Top 36 TEs in 0.5 PPR (with points for tackles, but I doubt that applies to this list at all), sorted by average points per game:

It's snowing like mad at GB.

To sign them is my real test

With full no movement clause
How is the wind? Because that's the difference maker. I think historically snow hasn't actually proved to be too much of a detriment to a passing game all things considered because for what the offense loses in visibility, they gain in the advantage of knowing the routes before the defenders and getting that extra step. Not that's it's optimal conditions, but I don't think that snow makes Rodgers and Jordy auto-sits unless they're also dealing with some heavy wind.

Basically tl;dr: if you have them and not a lot going on behind them, I think you have no choice but to plug and pray. If there's like 30 MPH gusts, then I think you could look elsewhere, because that'll drop them into desperation territory and you could find someone on the wire who is in that same category with better conditions

I have Rivers I could start for Rodgers, but for Jordy replacements, my choices are Corey Coleman, Sterling Shepard, or Cameron Merideth, still plug and play, do you think?

I think that considering the matchup and the weather conditions, Coleman and Jordy might be on about equal footing right now assuming that there's also some good winds kicking up in GB

Anyone else worried about Julio Jones? He is a game time decision. If he plays he'll mostly be used as a decoy. I've moved him to my flex spot so I can push my decision back a few hours but I am worried. I'm in a Standard league, my other options are Bilal Powell, Kenneth Dixon, Kenny Britt and Mike Wallace. I'm tempted to start Britt or Powell instead of Julio.

Britt is pretty dependable. I'm starting him and benched Julio in a few leagues.

I wish Amari Cooper was more consistent.

Edit: also weather.com says the snow in Green Bay should end around 3 pm. I honestly hope not, opponent has Rodgers and it'd be sweet if he could have a not your regular Rodgers day.

As a Powell and Forte owner I want Forte to decide that he's had just enough of football and take a nice rest for the remainder of the season, allowing Powell to be the undisputed RB1.

Such a weird week of QB meltdowns and associated fallout. In the league where I have the #1 seed and a bye, my team would have scored 49 points. In 0.5 PPR. AB84 was the only player to reach double digits, and just barely.

Melvin Gordon possibly being dead is going to be a problem next week :ohdear:

I'm in the playoffs in two different leagues. One league I had Bell and I scored 160 points and crushed my opponent. Amazingly, the other league I am facing Bell and might actually pull out a win. I'm up 12 points with my NE D/ST to go against their Dez.

Yay Fantasy!

1 pt per rushing attempt, 1 pt per 5 rushing yards, 6 pt TDs, 1 PPR, 1 pt per 10 receiving yards. "Bell carried 38 times for 236 yards and three TDs in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Bills. He also caught four passes for 62 yards."

And we can throw Dez and Eli on this pile too. I have Gostkowski and the Pats D left to play and my only player to break double digits is Frank Gore.

See thread title.

Edit: and this was on top of Julio scratching this week.

And for reference, I had the first seed. The third and fourth seeds are also going down. Chaos reigns.

Every winning team in most of my leagues lost or had season lows. In the only league i'm undisputed first place I went against Bell. I think out of 7 leagues I made the playoffs in 3. Last three weeks really hosed me.

Is Farrow an add or a wait and see?

My RB's are Bell, Ware, and Powell. We start 2 and have one flex spot. I could drop Snead or Marvin Jones, they're 5th and 6th WR options atm.
