Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

Tony Romo or Matthew Stafford?

Who should be my flex guy?
- Frank Gore
- Larry Fitzgerald
- Stevan Ridley
- Danny Woodhead

(I'm starting Matt Forte & Le'veon Bell, Julio Jones & Alshon Jeffery)

I would go with Stafford over Romo. I like Stafford's match up a lot better.

For the other question, that's a tough call between Fitz and Gore, but I'm leaning Gore because of Dallas' D.

Week one flex: Jeremy Maclin or Brandin Cooks?

Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

Need advice, pick one please for my FLEX spot:

Golden Tate vs. NYG
Marques Colston vs. ATL

I would go with Colston. Atlanta doesn't have the best defense and we all know Brees is going to throw a lot.

I see wwharton will be holding it down in this thread, thanks bro!

Seems like a lot of us have Golden Tate. Let's hope he comes through for us.

Should I go with Golden Tate (at home vs. bad Giants D) or Vincent Jackson (at home vs. Carolina in thunder storms)? Standard league.

Maclin for me. He should be the number one target in Philly as long as he's healthy, whereas Cooks is probably the 3rd in New Orleans.

Homer pick. Tate. Both are favorable but fewer mouths to feed in Detroit's passing game, Brees spreads around more, so I think Tate has a better shot at a good game. Colston is a decent guy to have, he just seems to not live up to your expectations.

Tony Romo or Matthew Stafford?

Stafford and Fitz if PPR, even in standard I think I'd go Fitz but its a lot closer. I personally dont think Gore will be Gore this year and Hyde will eat into his production, but I can definitely see the appeal of the matchup.

Tough one, but I guess Maclin will see more now with DeSean gone and the Jax will make it easy for Foles.

Colston vs Tate? Sure thing for Colston, Brees loves this guy.

Just in case you didn't know, Kenny Stills is out. I would probably still go Maclin though, his health worries me a lot. Cooks being a rookie (and will be on the road) scares me more than Maclin's health. Maclin should be the main option outside of Shady and they're playing at home against Jacksonville.

Dont know where wwharton is...

Im pretty high on Tate, but in this case I think I'd still go with Jackson. I dont really know whats going on with the weather, but I expect the CAR defense to be on the field alot today and theyll get worn down, due to limited/no Cam. Tate's ceiling is lower than Jackson's. Even against a good Carolina D Jackson can go bonkers. That being said Jackson's floor is lower than Tate's. I almost always go with upside.

rams D or steelers D

Both good matchups, but the Rams have a top5 Fantasy D whereas the Steelers are a borderline top 12. So Rams.

I'm trusting you!

Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

Brady vs. Miami
Kaepernick vs. Dallas

This one is a tough call for me... Please help!

[Cyrus09]

Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

Dallas should be the worst defense in football, Miami is getting better every year and is always close against the Pats. 100% for Kaep!

Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

Yeah I edited my post before you quoted me. I think I'm keeping Paterson in there since I trust him more than I trust the jets.

Davis is starting though.

Good call with Patterson! That was a hell of a run.

Yeah, I'll poke my head in here throughout the week but unfortunately I'm not on the forums (or the computer at all) on Saturdays, and Sunday pregame I'm usually getting all of my many leagues, pick ems, survivor leagues, etc. in order.

Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

WEEK 2 WTS

Vincent Jackson vs STL or Kendall Wright vs DAL

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Re: 2014 OS "Who To Start" Thread

Alright, I have a tough one again this week for my flex spot.

0.5 PPR, otherwise standard scoring:

Cord Patterson vs. NE
Keenan Allen vs. SEA
Knowshown Moreno @BUF
Brandin Cooks @CLE
Andre Ellington @NYG

I'm pretty locked in on starting Brandon Marshall, Michael Floyd, LeSean McCoy, and DeMarco Murray at my WR and RB slots, so this is the one huge toss-up for me.
