Fantasy football 2016

Just want to confirm my gut feelings for my starting lineup:
QB -- Prescott over R. Wilson
3 Receivers in a PPR -- Diggs, Crowder and Moncrief over Cobb and John Brown.

(If that looks like a mid-line group of WRs, keeping in mind my RBs are Elliott, Bell and Howard.

 

Prescott and Wilson right now is a coin flip to me. Neither has an appealing opponent. I have Dak and I'm starting him, but we can run two QBs in our league (qb/rb/wr/te flex). I'd feel fine playing either or. Actually, I'd try and trade either or for a WR after this week. I think your WRs are fine for what you have.

I think I'm going to run with Dwayne Washington over Terrance West today especially hearing about Dixon getting more involved. I know Riddick is playing for Detroit, but options are slim.

Pick two
Meredith (Ashlon suspended), Sharpe, Coates, Nelson. I'm leaning towards Meredith and Sharpe to go with Evans.
I'm also sitting Gurley and trying to trade him this morning for a WR2 as I have Ware and Prosise - I like his upside when he does get the ball (ppr)

 

I'd go with Wilson over Dak. I still just trust him more. But you're right, they are comparable plays.

I wouldn't touch Terrance West with a 10-foot Hungarian. In fact, I just cut him after last week's debacle. He's averaging less than 3 yards per carry in his past four games.

My debate is this: I have Terelle Pryor, Rishard Matthews and Doug Baldwin in the lineup but I have Tyreek Hill (with Maclin out) on the bench. I'm trying to decide if he's a better option than one of the starters. I'm halfway tempted to sit Baldwin.

 

Gosh- that's tough. I also have Hill in my league with West and I'm going with him. But, I don't have as many options as you. (AJ, Crowder, Hill, Woods on bench). Hill had 13 targets last week. 13! Doubt he gets as many today, but so far Smith is looking for him. Hard to sit Matthews as Mariota looks for him every damn play lately and Pryor is the only saving grace in Cleveland. Baldwin is hit or miss, but has been more hit lately. Tough one. I was going to say Pryor, but this could be a somewhat high scoring game or the Browns fall behind big early.

 

Well, shows you what I know. Less than 10 minutes in, West has 3 carries, 34 yards and a TD.

 

I was just thinking sure I'll sit him and he might have a good game. Sure enough. (so far)

 

Unfortunately I had to go offline at 1230 yesterday and missed seeing these responses.
My league's trade deadline was last week and I stood pat.
I went with Dak and in my league's system he scored more than Wilson.

 

Had my nine-game win streak broken yesterday with Matt Ryan, Julio, Freeman and Tyrell Williams all on byes. Made a mistake in playing two TEs (Reed and Olsen) instead of plugging in Crowder, but I still would have lost. Hopefully I'll get a win next week with my full lineup and secure the top seed.

In my other league, I sat Rishard Matthews in favor of Cooks, Crabtree and Fitzgerald, but it won't cost me. I've got enough points for the win and I should remain in third.

 

Had a rough start to the season as I had to settle for a Yahoo AutoDraft (because I couldn't make the live draft) and had Ryan Fitzpatrick as my backup behind a struggling Russel Wilson and lost three in a row. Week 4 I grabbed Dak off the waiver wire. Heading into this week I've won 6 of the last 7, two three-game winning streaks. If I hang on this week, it'll be a four-game winning streak. I'm up by 35 and my opponent has Lamar Miller, Latvius Murray and Michael Crabtree to go tonight while I only have Khalil Mack left (yes we use individual defenders instead of team defenses).

 

In one league I'm second and am about to have my five-game winning streak snapped to a person who started a defense on a bye and also played Ashlon. AJ Green went out for me and Tyrod got me little to nothing in my flex. I have Carr and my defensive player going, but I'm down 50 or so points. He had Rob K last night and damn. Needless to say I'll be scambling on the waiver wire this week looking for another WR or two

Other league I'm also in second with a bunch of waiver pickups - Dak, Ware, Prosise, Sharpe and some others. Prosise goes down yesterday and I have Gronk who will miss some time as well. I also have Gurley but I sat him. Needless to say, I won by about 40 points. I may try and move Gurley this week for a WR2 or another RB.

Both of these leagues have defense and an individual defensive player. Pretty fun.

 

I love the IDP league I'm in. We get one point per tackle, so a good linebacker who consistently gets 8 or 9 tackles a game is often better than a mid-pack WR or RB. I won the thing a few times because of my defensive players.

 

I took Dak Prescott as my Mr. Irrelevant in the draft, and then cut him after Week 5. He was only doing so-so fantasy wise and I have Brees, so I only needed a second QB through the Saints' early bye week. Tried shopping him around before I cut him, but no one seemed to need a QB. And then he starts going off about three seconds later.
Thanks, Dak. I'll remember that when I remind myself why I hate the Cowboys.
