Fantasy Football 2018

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I had Hunt in the RCF League. That's bad luck, but I also had Ray Rice on my roster when he got popped. I'm starting to think I need to reevaluate the traits I look for in a running back.
 
Just noticed the guy I am playing this week in my money redraft league has both Kareem Hunt and Melvin Gordon. Ouch.
 
I have Melvin Gordon, so I picked up Austin Ekeler once I heard he was out for this game. But now I just picked up Spencer Ware once I heard the Hunt news. Which one of those would you start at RB2? Or would you start both with one in the flex? Currently I have Keenan Allen in the flex position.

Start Ware for sure. Ekeler wasn't anything special the last time Gordon missed a week and the Chiefs are playing the Raiders, who are garbage, which means they'll probably be rushing a lot. Plus, Ware has proven he can be a fantasy RB1 in the past when Charles got hurt. Ekeler is nothing more than a low-end RB2 at best.

I also think the Chargers will give a lot of carries to Justin Jackson, who has looked good in the limited work he's received, because Ekeler just isn't a great between the tackles guy.
 
Somehow I got Ware.

So now I have Julio, Michael Thomas, and Woods as my receivers. Mixon, Aaron Jones, and Ware as my RBs. Kelce at TE.

I better fucking win this shit.

Awesome, thanks! I’m not that big into fantasy football, just doing this for my sister since she’s clueless and in a league. So this helps a lot.

I’ve also got Thielen, Evans, Keenan Allen, Robert Woods and Demaryius Thomas as my WR’s. I’ve got Thielen and Evans as my starters, and Allen as my flex. Is that smart?

I’m also playing the Chiefs as my defense because the Raiders are garbage.

You're pretty much good with any of those four receivers (I'd probably keep Thomas on the bench...I know he blew up last week but I don't trust it). I'd consider starting Woods over Evans. Better match-up, and with Kupp out Woods and Cooks are going to get more targets. But really, neither is a bad choice.
 
Still alive in my Survivor Pool!

Fucking Tennessee and Mariota gave me a heart attack.

Julio Jones sucks.

Some weeks I feel like that. Others, not so much.

Chargers fucked me handing it off to Jackson tonight. Lost by 4. Had Rivers going.

Meaningless game for me though. Number one seed lets go.
 
I have Goff and Baker in one League.

The frigid weather for the Rams away game has me spooked. Goff traditionally plays mediocre on the road and poorly in bad weather.

Then again, he is a stud. I feel like Baker may feast on the Panthers; then again he is a rookie and anything could happen.

Also, AP (handicapped by Sanchez) vs a horrid Giants D or gamble on Jeff Wilson against an improving Denver run-defense?

He's been kinda bad this year (2 game) in cold weather but actually played better in the cold last season (4 games) than in warm/hot games. I'm in the same boat as you on starting Goff but I've decided to start him banking on the 1 really bad game he had this year in "cold" weather being a fluke.

Need some help here boys. Need to fill my TE spot and flex:

Kelce
Gus Edwards
Jaylen Samuels (TE eligible)

Other RBs are Spencer Ware and Aaron Jones.

Am I insane benching Kelce? Need upside plays as I'm going up against the #1 team.
