Important Fantasy Sit/Start

HarryCaray · Nov 14, 2013

5-5 and need a win this week. PPR league I am choosing between the following to fill 3WR, 1TE, and 1 flex spot.

Calvin Johnson (doesn't matter I'm playing him)
Alshon Jeffrey (ditto)
Josh Gordon (@CIN)
Riley Cooper (vs WAS)
Roddy White (@TB)
Julius Thomas (vs KC)
Gronk (@CAR)

Right now I have Megatron, Jeffrey, Gordon, Cooper, Gronk in with Thomas and White on the bench.

Initially I was debating between Cooper and White in the flex. Decided on Cooper against the Skins as Foles really likes throwing him bombs but now I'm questioning putting Julius Thomas in the flex (as I've been doing since Gronk came back with great results).

The more I look at it I am thinking maybe I bench White and Gordon... :think2:

I start Calvin, Josh, Rile, Gronk, Julius

PatsFan1283 · Nov 14, 2013

yeah I'd go Julius over Jeffrey probably.

I know McCown has played well but the ravens D is solid and Marshall has been blowing up lately.

Both are hit or miss but thats what I think I'd do.

White clearly out

You bench Jeffery? Really? 4 100 yard games in his last 6?

Hadn't even considered that honestly...

HarryCaray · Nov 14, 2013

OK we all agree on benching White vs Revis.

I don't know if I can bench Jeffery.

What about Gordon? 2 shitty games in his last 3...

If you are that high on Jeffrey then yeah Gordon is fine. Cincy is solid on D and that shouldn't be the highest scoring game.

I'd personally go Gordon over Jeffrey but both are boom/bust non-ppr types

I would go with these 5

Calvin Johnson
Josh Gordon
Riley Cooper
Julius Thomas
Gronk

HarryCaray · Nov 14, 2013

Wow I'm literally shocked at no love for Jeffery I had him penciled in as a no-brainer.

Obvious 4 to me are:
Calvin Johnson
Alshon Jeffrey
Julius Thomas
Gronkowski

Then, given the matchup, I'd go with Riley Cooper. Should be a lot of points by both.
