Celek or Jordan Reed? Yes, I'm desperate at TE in this league

Do I either start Russell Wilson or Philip Rivers or do I drop Philip Rivers and pick up Ryan Tannehill for this week?

I benched Rivers for Wilson the last few weeks. Chargers o-line is horrendous and I think they're on their 3rd center now. Tannehil is probably the best option but you'll hate yourself if you start him over Wilson and it blows up in your face lol

Decided to go with Tannehill and at this point of the Seahawks game, I don't think it's gonna blow up in my face lol
 
I've made a terrible mistake.

Also, at what point is Russell Wilson just an every-week, no-doubt QB1 starter? He has at least 16 fantasy points in 9-of-12 outings and is averaging 56.5 rushing yards per game. I'm a sucker for quarterbacks with legs and Wilson is the best in the business at that right now.
If you don't want a Top 6 QB, should've traded him.
 
With Latavius Murray out this Sunday, I desperately need a RB. List of available RBs. (most of the waiver wire list are picked up)

Jonathan Stewart
Matt Asiata
Andre Williams

Thanks

Outta those 3, I'd take Asiata...But it's pretty much a crapshoot in that list. I'd rank Williams last though.
 
Do I put Sanu in for Martin or VJAX?
If you're talking about flex spots, you shouldn't be considering Doug Martin at all ahead of either Sanu or VJax.

As for which of the two receivers you go with, that's more of a toss-up. I rather like Sanu given that they're both playing the same game, the Bengals pass D is legit even when it comes to shutting down garbage time scores and the Bucs pass D is non-existent. Evans is so hot he's been monopolizing whatever passing offense Tampa Bay can muster of late.

So yeah, ride Sanu over VJax. Leave the hamster in his wheel.

I have VJax at a WR spot with Martin at FLEX. I've been trying to set both of them but my other options are only Sanu and Eric Decker and they aren't really appealing either.

Sanu is plenty appealing given the matchup. Start both VJax and Sanu, bench Martin.
 
For my FLEX, either

Torrey Smith vs San Diego

or

Rueben Randle @ Jacksonville

I'm thinking Smith. SD doesn't have a great corners and Eli likes to throw to Odell and Donnell more often.


and for another league, pick 2

Benjamin, Cobb, Beckham Jr
 
I have to choose one RB today:



-Giovani Bernard @ Tampa Bay
-Tre Mason vs. Oakland
-Shane Vereen @ Green Bay



Which one should I pick?

In standard formats, starting Smith over Randle is a no-brainer.
In PPR, there is more of a debate... BUT I think I'd still ride Smith.

That's a nice problem to have. Bench Benjamin.

In standard formats, ride Mason.
In PPR, ride Vereen.
If it's 0.5ppr like Edwardo's league, split the difference and ride Bernard.
 
This is my line up as of right now

any changes anyone would recommend?

I'd grab a safety net tight end to roll out in place of Julius Thomas if you're planning to wait for his status on Sunday night.
Either Jacob Tamme or Dion Sims would be your best bet. Dump Tim Wright for either of them.
Otherwise, your lineup looks solid.
 
My opponent has alshon Jeffery, Steven hauschka, and the Seattle defense. And golden Tate and Jeremy maclin. Man I need abdrew luck to throw like 5 tds. I was projected to win by 20, now I'm projected to lose by 20...

Thanks for the quick response. I'm in a PPR league, but I've just been so weary on Vereen this year since it's hard to predict how Belichick will handle the backfield on any given week. But at the same time, it's hard to figure out how much work Bernard will get in comparison to Hill.

Tough decision.......
 
I need help with a second RB. PPR league


my first RB - Leveon Bell


I did have Mckinnon as my second but he's out this week so I'm left with

Terrence West or Jonas Grey?

Which one do you guys think I have the best chance with?

Oddly enough, I have this exact decision in one of the GAF fantasy leagues this week.
I'm starting Gray. Figure he's out of the doghouse and Belichick will want to keep Rodgers and the Packers offense off the field.
I think he'll still cede the majority of the red zone work to Blount but will be active between the 20s.

I don't think the Browns can run against most defenses... let alone the stout Bills D.
Leave West on the bench... although he is a safer bet to get more touches than Gray, I doubt he does anything with them.

You need Andrew Luck to throw "like 5 TDs"?
So I'm guessing the interception, sack and lost fumble to kick off the game this week aren't good news then?
 
After an entire season of Colston, I'm happy to finally say that I have a WR2 with Stills :D. Definitely pick up of the week!

Feels good going into the playoffs...

There's #4. This guy should win MVP IMO. That team is not that great
 
Ha! Packers D is way better than Steelers. This was the wrong move. If Packers win today, it'll be on the ground

Eh, it's not a huge delta. Packers give up 18.5 to opposing QBs in my league, the Steelers, 20.4.

The Pack have arguably played against only one elite QB all year (Brees) and he lit them up (34, 6pt TDs). Brady will have a big afternoon as well.

Brady's dink and dunk shit won't work against the Pack. He needs to go deep if he wants success vs. this team
