So I figure alot of people on NS are playing Fantasy Football.

Talk about your team, trades, ask for advice, whatever.

Bakerpowi hate the tight end position as a whole


Ya te is pretty much always a toss up

Id personally play gates as well. Id just have more confidence in him doing well. Also I assume sd will be down for most of the game. That will equate to more passing plays. Just my train of thought

.Hugo.need a rb2 and flex spot

alfred morris
branden oliver
joique bell

then possibly eddie royal? but i think all 3 of them^ are a better choice than him


bell and morris. not sure why morris over oliver, big skins/boys rivalry so maybe i'm hoping for good things

Sharknuts.I need help with my flex.

Tre Mason: risk it for the biscuit
or
Doug Martin
or
Mark Ingram
or
Reggie Bush


Ingram

Bakerpowcutler or tannehill? torrey smith or sanu?


cutler, smith if green is back this week

pussyfooterAny insight on trading Jamaal Charles for Ben Tate & Smith Sr? I have 4 RB on my team and could use another decent WR and ben tate seems like a legit RB as well.


not terrible, i forget who you said your RBs were but if you feel solid in the position it gives you a solid WR and a decent RB to take tate's place. i tried to trade for charles this week and got shot down- he saw through my bs.

theBearJewTrust Ingram this week?

I have Hillman, Ingram, Mason, and Stacey..

Thinking about dropping Stacey if Mason seems to take over the role. Stacey didn't even get a fucking carry last week.


i'd play either hillman or ingram. thursday night blowout could be good for hillman tonight. ingrams on my bench this week, but would be next in line if i didn't have better options. it seems stacey is droppable but if you have bench space i'd keep him to see what the rams do this weekend. best you can hope is that it's obvious mason is the guy, otherwise probably neither one of them are startable.

hamfacegirl2.0Do I play Rivers or Brees? Please help.


rivers? pick one and trade the other in the near future to upgrade another position.

AT-ATAny thoughts on me trading Brees for Bradshaw? My main QB has been Rivers.


you have my permission

Bakerpowowne daniels or delanie walker?


walker

pussyfooterOwen for sure.



Dwayne Allen or Antonio Gates? SD is playing denver so I'm a little apprehensive to play Gates and Indy is playing the Steelers which seems like it'll be a big game for Luck. Thoughts?


gates, for same reasons hugo gave

theBearJewIs Zac Stacey worthless now? I have Tre Mason.


i kinda rambled about this above but the more i think about it the more i think he's droppable. i can't think of any instances where i'd start him. maybe he emerges as the goal line back and becomes startable when you don't have any other options? i'd think you can do just as good or better with some random on waivers.

Bernard is garbage. So not him.



And fantasy football, where you yell because a FB scored not a RB.

We changed the scoring so each 1 yard gets you .1 points. And for qbs, each yard is .04. It gets nuts when people have won by .3 (or in my case, lost by .6 after a Tuesday revision by espn...lol)

.Hugo.Who is your other d?


i have chiefs in my lineup this week. i typically pick up a different one week to week. have been trying to use eagles to tip trades. "here take these players and give me yours" "no, i don't like that deal" "ok well here's the same offer but let me include the #1 scoring defense this year" so far it hasn't worked

Humpswhy would you keep RG3 and Gordon??


what do you mean why would i keep gordon? why wouldn't i keep him? he'll be back in 2 weeks and he's a beast

rg3 i'm really only keeping as a backup. we have 2 IR slots that you can stash injured players in so he hasn't even taken bench space until this point. the fact that he's a monday game and his "out" status won't be official until tomorrow night is screwing w/ my bench so i have to drop someone until then. i guess i'm more just being hopeful he'll come back and not suck in case my starter goes down and i need someone to finish the season

If you pick up a different d every week then ud say get rid of a d for kicker, unless your other te will never get benched over donnell
