[Official 2013 NFL Season] Fantasy Football Lineup Advice Thread

The point total (Vegas) on the NO/ATL game is nuts, play White. And Amendola.

 

Jared Cook or Jordan Cameron?

 

Jordan is my current starter, but I wish I had Cook -- I think this is finally the year he goes off (had him last year).

 

I would go with Garcon and Amendola (assuming he is healthy) -- White's ankle is going to slow him down.

 

Bradshaw all the way.

 

XM Fantasy Radio said Tate could get aroud 10 carries, and Ballard will start for the Colts, and then Bradshaw will continue to be fed based on how well he plays. I'd go Bradshaw

 

Need to start 3 WRs in standard league.

A.J. Green (Cin @ Chi)
Victor Cruz (NYG @ Dal)
Randall Cobb (GB @ SF)
Jordy Nelson (GB @ SF)

I'm thinking it's an easy call to just bench Nelson in week 1, but I've been wrong many times before.

At QB...

...can go with either Russell Wilson @ Carolina.

...or Andrew Luck at home vs. Oakland.

Leaning with Luck, but Wilson is tempting.

 

Unless your QB is a stud, you bench him against Carolina. That defense is LEGIT and are probably going to be a sleeper for fantasy this year. Kuechly is the best mike in the NFL and their DBs are kinda awesome.

Andrew Luck against Oakland is a no-brainer. In fact, Andrew Luck over Wilson should be a no-brainer almost every week. Only reason I would be "cautious" is that the Raiders are so bad, they could get out to a lead early and just go conservative in the 2nd half which would hurt Luck's fantasy stats (this phenomenon has actually been statistically proven to be true for most QBs not named Brady).

Cobb is going to be the #1 guy in GB, so I think you'd have to bench Nelson. Other two guys are must starts.

 

Awesome. Didn't realize Carolina's D was that stout. I'll keep on close eye on them... they're still available on the waiver wire in my league. I drafted Seattle so I'll probably be going with them most weeks.

I really hope Cobb gets James Jones' endzone targets this year. For having almost twice as many receptions last season, Cobb only caught one more (8) TD compared to Jordy (7 TDs). Jones was in another zone with 14 TDs.

Appreciate the advice.

 

14 team PPR... Here's my team.

QB: Stafford, EJ Manuel

RB: Jamaal Charles, David Wilson, Daryl Richardson, Bryce Brown, Ryan Williams

WR: Randall Cobb, Wes Welker, Mike Wallace, Tavon Austin, Kenny Britt, Dexter McCluser, Cordarrelle Patterson

TE: Jimmy Graham, Tyler Eifert

K: Randy Bullock

D: St. Louis

My starting line up for this week is:
QB: Stafford
WR: Cobb - Welker
RB: Jamaal Charles - David Wilson
TE: Graham

Having a hard time deciding who to put in at the flex between... Daryl Richardson, Mike Wallace or Tavon Austin... What do you guys think?

 

That is a great draft for a 14 team. Well done. I would say play Richardson.

 

PPR:

Redman vs. Titans
Moore vs. Falcons
Stevie Johnson vs. NE
Kenny Britt @ Pitt

Pick one.

 

I have no idea how someone could even pull that off.

 

Moore, the point total is high on that game. I'm not sure if Johnson is even the 1st or 2nd option anymore in that offense.

 

I think Jones and Nelson are better redzone targets. Cobb will get the most looks but probably not in the endzone, he's just not a big target. He'll get scores, just probably not a ton of redzone looks.

 

Really hurting at the RB position.

Need to start 2 (standard league).

Outside of Arian Foster I have:

Giovani Bernard @ Chi
Joique Bell @ Min
Roy Helu @ Was
Bernard Pierce @ Den (played Thurs, didn't start him)
Ben Tate @ SD

Given Foster's limited use (per Kubiak), I was considering pairing him with Tate for week 1. Surely, they'll rush into the endzone at least twice in SD. The Law Firm seems to be wearing down, which is why Bernard seems like an attractive option as well. Pierce didn't show much at all on Thurs, but the Ravens were playing from behind the entire 2nd half.

Who should get the nod (w/ Foster) in week 1?

Who do you think will breakout from this group the rest of the season?

Appreciate the help.

 

I'd role with Giovani Bernard and it's not really close IMO.

 

Yeah, I agree. Hoping that Rodgers develops rapport with Cobb in the red zone (especially with Jennings being gone). But wouldn't surprise me at all if he's relegated to extending the field (deep threat) ala Mike Wallace.

Thanks for the feedback.
