Fantasy Football Q&A

Both Jones and Nelson are borderline 3rd WR plays.

The Bills are going to throw more (because they’ll be behind), but Jones is the better WR. I guess I’d go Jones, but I would call that a coin flip. Won’t be shocked at all if Nelson has the better day.

League 1: Stafford
League 2: Newton and Kolb (Grossman is close though)

You asked for opinions, I just prefer Stafford slightly over Newton. I think the Lions will just keep throwing every week. My only concern is injury, but he’s not missed time yet. Newton should do well also, I just prefer Stafford.

I’d take both Stafford and Newton over Ryan. The 4 TD masked the fact that he only threw for 195 yards. And I think they’ll run it more against TB (because I think they’ll get the lead early).

BJGE for sure. I’d stay away from Grant and Ringer. See where Felix Jones is after Friday’s practice. Probably Jones and Thomas. Still scared McCluster only gets 8-10 total touches.

Caddy wasn’t particularly impressive in his debut, and S-Jax is rearing to come back.

unless Bryant doesn’t play. Then it’s Henderson. Chad Johnson/Ochocinco hasn’t shown anything yet and Hester hasn’t really either.

Dumb for the guy who made the deal. He should have traded Stafford (and he should have gotten more than Tolbert regardless).

Because Brandon Tate vs Stevie Johnson isn’t even worth a discussion.

I assume you mean Ben Tate (RB) vs NO. If so, I’d check on Foster’s situation at game time. Start Tate over Johnson if Foster doesn’t play or will be limited. If it’s a split situation for Houston, then it’s just a coinflip between Tate and Johnson. But if Tate is getting the vast majority of the touches, go with Tate.

So caveat my opinion as you will on Teams 2, 3, 5, and 6.

Team 1: sit Lloyd. As for the trade, who would you be dropping? Is it a 3 WR league or a 2 WR + Flex league?

Team 2: I’d go with Julio Jones and DeAngelo Williams actually. Williams has done nothing so far, but I’d give him one more week. I’m just not confident McCluster does a whole lot more than he did before Charles got hurt.

Team 3: Amendola isn’t playing, so he’s out. Collie has a sorry QB situation, so I’d go with Jackson/Williams and Ginn (who may even catch a couple of passes this week as well).

Team 4: I’d probably bench Blount as well. Just too many question marks about the regularity of his touches, especially if TB falls behind early. I’d start Romo if he’s playing, but you might not know until after Cutler has played. So you may get caught with your pants down.

Team 5: I’d start Bryant (if healthy) and Wayne. If Bryant is still not healthy, I’d go with Williams. This is again because I’m not too sure McCluster gets that many more touches.

Team 6: Burleson and Williams or Nelson.

Team 7: Freeman, Branch, and (I guess) Jones.

I realize I’m saying Williams in a lot of these cases. He’s still a starting RB, and I feel like at some point he’ll have a good day. And if he has a good day, it’s going to be better than what these WR3 can do.
