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

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

He's still going to be the 4th option in the passing game. He's going to be very touchdown dependent

I went with Denarius Moore instead. He's gonna get a lot of looks outside against the Jet's awful secondary and he was Derek Carr's favorite receiver throughout the preseason. I'm pretty much screwed anyway week 1 with Welker out and some of the mathcups my other players are facing

id put him as a flex if i didnt have an obvious better option. Even if the niners play like shit, he should get targets.

but id only bet on 8-10 points.

ik, hell get snaps, and if he wasnt id say hes more reliable for 12-15 points. I think even an injured crabtree will still get on the field and see targets.

bench is

joqie bell
shane vereen
marcus wheaton
kendal wright
carlos hyde
cecil shorts (out)
josh gordon

id lean towards bell or wright, bell is really td dependent right now. i think he will take on more of a work load as the season goes on and once bush gets hurt.

also tight end is probably the hardest position to fill, unless you draft high with a te it's pretty much a crap shoot trying to find someone

I took gronk wayyy early and Jordan Reed as a crapshoot backup, and already an injured gronk has been a good TD target. Theres only going to be 3-4 really good TE's, but the good ones are so reliable. Worth reaching for.

yah my draft position didnt really allow that. drafted second so there is no way i was taking a te first, then second pick went rb again by my 3rd pick all good te were gone

Nah he's going to be the man in the offense. When the Rams almost stole one in Seattle last year it was because he had 145 yards on the ground. Dude is a grinder. He's going to get his
