I was 1-5 but have won my last 2 and the team I face this week has no running backs available as of right now (all are on bye) If I can get to 5-5, you never know what might happen.

I don't like Vereen, as I've made clear, but he's guaranteed touches.gport_tennis;1668100 wrote:Pick 4 of the 5 to start this week (1 pt PPR league):

Well, Mike Evans and Jordan Reed won't have any.SportsAndLady;1668464 wrote:Davis but I know very little about return yard stats for those guys.
Projections have Reed for 12. Evans for 11 and Davis for 9. They have Davis for 25 rushing yards, 1 catch for 7 and 41 return yards and half a TD.
Reed has gotten 24 targets over his last 3 games. Evans has 22. They are safer bets to get looks. If all the kickoffs are touchbacks, I am just playing a backup RB who gets a drive or two a game to give Charles a breather.

Not really sure why I said return yards for those guys lol I meant to say not really sure about how return yards factor into a fantasy play. Never played it.TBone14;1668487 wrote:Well, Mike Evans and Jordan Reed won't have any.

I would go with reed though. Like you said, he's getting the targets.

My trade from last week was genius. Gave Vereen coming off a 25 pt game and got Dwayne Allen and Mark Ingram in return.

Damn, that was pretty good. I think Vereen will have some good weeks but he's a Belichick RB so who knows.SportsAndLady;1668647 wrote:My trade from last week was genius. Gave Vereen coming off a 25 pt game and got Dwayne Allen and Mark Ingram in return.

Dwayne Allen is very TD dependent though, and track record suggests Ingram < Vereen.
Of course, I'd say good trade cause I would've done it all. Just not sure Id call it genius yet

5 tds in 6 games isn't some fluke lol it's not like he scored 5 TDs in 2 games.Laley23;1668812 wrote:Which, I would say wont continue. But, Luck might be approaching Manning levels of keeping 5 guys happy a week lol.
They target him in the red zone and they're in the red zone a lot.

Would you guys start Mark Ingram tonight at Panthers, or Ronnie Hilman on Sunday at Patriots?

This may sounds like a stupid question, but would you start Gates vs MIA or Kelce vs NYJ?
I have Gates in now, because he's Gates, but the matchup for Kelce is very favorable. MIA has only given up 4 TDs to TEs all season, and the last 3 games combined they've given up 14 total points. The Jets, on the other hand, have given up 9 TDs in the last 6 weeks with scores of 19, 11, 19, 17, 7, and 14 in those weeks. I'm sure I'll stick with Gates but I just know the Jets are going to break my heart and give up 2 TDs to Kelce.

I don't think you can go wrong, here. Obviously, it's possible for either one of them to have a big or lean day.justincredible;1668903 wrote:This may sounds like a stupid question, but would you start Gates vs MIA or Kelce vs NYJ?

If I had to choose, myself, I'd go with Gates. Kelce has an enormous level of upside, but he's perpetually underutilized in the offense, so I think his ceiling is lower.

Actually, I just realized we have a FLEX (2, actually) and not a W/R spot.
Now my question is this, which 2 do I start?
Terrance Williams (ARI gives up a ton of points to WR)
Larry Fitzgerald (DAL gives up very few points to WR, but he has had 2 really great weeks in the last 3)
Michael Floyd (This guy is pissing me off a lot this season)
Darren McFadden (Meh)
Travis Kelce

It really hit me just now how thin I am at RB in this league.
Jamaal Charles
Justin Forsett
A decent 1-2 punch.
And Darren McFadden.
That's it. Though I do have Ryan Mathews on IR.
