ggroovy17 0 Posted September 13, 2014 I picked up Matt Asiata as soon as I heard the AP news because we have a deep roster. Our scoring system is TD-heavy, so I am starting Matt Asiata over Larry Fitzgerald at flex. I am curious whom other owners are benching for Asiata. Foles Lacy Gore Asiata Marshall Maclin Gostowski Houston Stacy and Fitzgerald on the bench. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We Tigers 71 Posted September 13, 2014 Debating between him and Fred Jackson, both over Keenan Allen. I'll probably go Asiata in the end. I'm starting Ellington, too, and consider him well ahead of both those guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bills04 46 Posted September 13, 2014 Don't like Lacy's matchup vs. NYJ DEF. Think he will be too RZ TD dependent, and concerned about Kuhn being a vulture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NEWPOSTERGUY! 270 Posted September 13, 2014 starting this ham n' egger over some of the players I see in this thread is a complete LOLZ Mckinnon will seize command by mid second quarter. HTH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cretins 21 Posted September 13, 2014 Someone in my league beat me to him, but I managed to grab McKinnon. I was planning to sit Joique Bell vs Carolina this week, but since I now have AP on my bench I'm debating McKinnon or Bell. If I had Asiata I think it would be a no brainer. That NE defence looked horrible stopping the run last week. One of the Minni backs is likely going to have a huge day. The question is which one. Then again, Patterson could just take all the running plays this week and really screw with our heads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skinny_Bastard 154 Posted September 14, 2014 Take a look at snap counts last week. 14 for Asiata 3 for McKinnon This is Asiata's job until injury or week 14-17 (depending on playoff picture). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,735 Posted September 14, 2014 League 1, may start over Ingram (haven't decided yet) .5 pt PPR. League 2, starting over Ivory. Non PPR. League 3, bench, I'm stacked. Offered a trade to the AP owner. PPR League 4, IBL, bench (starting Charles and Murray). PPR. In League 1, I realized that with Jeffrey being gimpy, I'm really between starting Asiata/Ingram at RB and Asiata/Ingram/Cooks/John Brown at flex. I think I'm going to roll with the RB in flex; basically I'll start both Ingram and Asiata. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GS3K 12 Posted September 14, 2014 Guys Asiata ran a 4.81 forty at the combine. I repeat 4.81 forty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrmostlymittens 7 Posted September 14, 2014 Gerhart, Spiller, Bush Guys Asiata ran a 4.81 forty at the combine.I repeat 4.81 forty. All the more impressive that he made the league. Wiki has him at 4.77. If RB was all about speed the guys running 4.2-4.35 wouldn't mostly play CB or WR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Neil 63 Posted September 14, 2014 Guys Asiata ran a 4.81 forty at the combine. I repeat 4.81 forty. What's a 40 time gotta do with a 2nd and goal on the 2 yd line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GS3K 12 Posted September 14, 2014 It means that he won't reach the second level. It means he won't reach the corner. It means he won't juke or elude defenders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrmostlymittens 7 Posted September 14, 2014 It means that he won't reach the second level. It means he won't reach the corner. It means he won't juke or elude defenders. 40 time doesn't really correlate to juke moves or elusiveness...besides he's a power back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 1,090 Posted September 14, 2014 man I hope he explodes for something like 24 carries for 125 yards and 2 tds with 4 catches for 25 yards. I would love to flip him on tuesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H-man 12 Posted September 14, 2014 In one league I'm starting Patterson over Asiata in the flex (PPR). I think Patterson gets a ton of looks tomorrow. People aren't getting that a guy like Patterson doesn't benefit from a 'ton of looks". His value comes from deception and misdirection to hit that home run. With AP out there is much less deception and much more attention/respect given to Patterson I think. If they just gave him the ball every play he'd average 2 yards per touch. Toby Gerhart gets a ton of looks. So does Doug Martin. Patterson's yards per touch will go down and his uptick of touches won't be enough to compensate for it.
