Championship Week 16 WR discussion starts now

[TennisMenace 156]

Okay fellows. Congrats if you are in or close to being in. I'm in the latter category depending on tonight. I will start with two questions. Let's keep it going.

 

1. I would like to know who would Arizona's Peterson cover? Lockett, Baldwin, or other?

 

I didn't think he would cover the slot guy so I'm thinking Baldwin may be a good play this week. Not sure though.

 

2. What do you think of Ted Ginn's chances for success against an improving Falcons defense at home (Carolina)?

[TennisMenace 156]

Okay, now that we got by that semi final match (won by 1+) let's move on.

 

Who is the WR to own in Seattle? The one Peterson is not covering. Which one is that?

[Phil Simms 11 133]

I like Inman if available

[TennisMenace 156]

I like Inman if available

I wanted to pick him up last week but I gave SAMMY Watkins one more chance. He is available so maybe I can grab him. One small problem though- weather in Cleveland in Late December could be BRUTAL.

[Phil Simms 11 133]

I will need to keep an eye on that, have Inman as flex now but may switch to Steve Smith if weather concern

 

Thanks

[Frozenbeernuts 1,883]

Inman is on my waiver wire. I do have a lot of options so I'm not sure I want to risk it with him.

 

AJ Green

Tyler Lockett

Doug Baldwin

Devante Adams

Tyrell Williams

Spencer Ware/carlos Hyde

And then I can pick up Inman.

 

My only locked in starter is OBJ.

[ROCKFORD 134]

inman or ware?

Yes you do have options. You definitely want the Seattle WR not being covered by Peterson. Find out who that is.

[TennisMenace 156]

inman or ware?

Ware

[TennisMenace 156]

Cameron Meredith is a possibility. With Jeffrey back maybe Norman takes Jeffrey and leaves the bum to cover Meredith.

[Frozenbeernuts 1,883]

Cameron Meredith is a possibility. With Jeffrey back maybe Norman takes Jeffrey and leaves the bum to cover Meredith.

Norman doesn't usually follow a receiver. So that leads me to believe that the Bears may try to get Jeffery away from Norman.

[TennisMenace 156]

We will have to follow this closely. Clearly Wash secondary other than Norman are not good.

[Frozenbeernuts 1,883]

Vreeland is decent, but Meredith and Jeffery both tower over him. Whoever isn't covered by Norman is going to have a good game. Damn so many decisions. Who the hell does Norman cover and who the hell does Peterson cover?

Norman is always on the offenses right side. I don't believe he covers slot guy. I'm not sure if Jeffrey lines up on one side. Probably not.

[FantasyRetard 49]

In Championship and need serious advice:

 

QB- Bortles, Wentz, Seimian?

RB- Bell and Howard (of course)

WR- D.Thomas and Nuk

TE- Ertz

FLEX- R. Mathews or Snead?

 

thoughts?

 

[weepaws 3,006]

Wentz

 

Bell

 

Thomas

 

Mathews

 

I think it's a very nice day today , that's my thoughts.

 

Hey Merry Christmas and bring home a title.

[FantasyRetard 49]

Wentz

 

Bell

 

Thomas

 

Mathews

Hey Merry Christmas and bring home a title.

If Jenkins sits for the Giants, Wentz becomes appealing, if Sproles is playing, Mathews isn't appealing. Tough decisions. Thanks for the reply.

[weepaws 3,006]

That's what I was thinking about Wentz.

 

Sorry I thought it was R Mathews and not J Matthews.

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

Merry Christmas.

[Birk 14]

I like Britt this week and starting him in 2 leagues. I'm staying away from crowder

[nospk 230]

Tennis the Menace my advice is don't overcoach your roster

[Mr Neil 63]

I will need to keep an eye on that, have Inman as flex now but may switch to Steve Smith if weather concern

Thanks

I'm benching smiff. He has had single digits last couple games and Pitt D is solid and he had 8 pts last meeting

[Phil Simms 11 133]

I have claims in for Dion Lewis and Meredith as well, but as of now rolling with Inman. Smith benched. I am playing a bit of keepaway from my championship opponent but I may consider all of those for the flex spot.

[Birk 14]

They are expecting bad weather for Chargers game?

[FantasyRetard 49]

That's what I was thinking about Wentz.

 

Sorry I thought it was R Mathews and not J Matthews.

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

Merry Christmas.

Sorry, Ryan Mathews. I have to wonder about his production if Sproles is active.

[handbanana 47]

My championship finals team:

 

Mariota

Evans

DT

Freeman

Gurley (ugh)

Ware

Griffin or Fiedorowitz

Chargers

Crosby

 

Benching: Coleman, D Martin, Cooper, T Hill

 

I could pick up Stafford at Dallas but that offense is dink and dunk and his finger has me worried, just like Carr's prolly just roll with Mariota but he's been soooo bad lately I would live to roll with another option.

 

Wentz is available, as is Flacco but those don't exactly give me the warm fuzzies either.

 

Ugh

Ugh

Don't overthink Mariota. Mariota has faced two top tier defenses the past couple weeks. Even Brady didn't do anything against Denver. Both teams exposed the run. Carr and Matt Ryan put up mediocre numbers against the Cheifs too. Mariota put up 2 TDs and 270 yards against Jax week 8. Wentz, Flacco and Stafford (finger) seem unappealing.

[Hype_Train252 4]

My finals team is:

 

QB: Tyrod Taylor

RB: LeSean McCoy

RB: Bilal Powell

WR: Taylor Gabriel

WR: Malcolm Mitchell

TE: Tyler Eifert

K: Prater

DEF: Chargers

 

Flex options: Meredith, Dion Lewis, Dixon, Ted Ginn, Amari Pooper (no pun intended). Not sure who to play in my flex this week. Any suggestions? My team survived a crucible this year and still managed to make it. Won my last 2 playoff games on MNF. Week 14: Dixon and Mitchell (24 pts) and Week 15: Ted Ginn (12 pts). Hope Prater kills it this week!!!

[TennisMenace 156]

I really like Meredith a lot since BRkley has taken over. Josh Norman should not be covering him and the Skins secondary is horrible.

Meredith has been playing mostly slot (71%) since Barkley took over. Norman doesn't defend slot WRs. He at times shadows outside WRs. Probably will face Alshon most of the time.

[American Chewy 98]

Sterling shepard might be worth a flyer tonight. I think he's caught a td in 5 of his last 7 games, including vs philly in week 9.

First of all, is that even a pun? Second, if you purposely altered the spelling of his name then it is indeed intended.

[Frozenbeernuts 1,883]

I honestly don't know that any amount of insight and advice is going to help with my receiver decisions. They are just flat out tough, and everyone probably thinks something different. Just a really rough week

What ya got?

[Frozenbeernuts 1,883]

What ya got?

Foue of in ppr

 

Lockett, Hill, Baldwin, Tyrell, Ware, Meredith

 

And three of in non ppr

 

Lockett, Baldwin, Tyrell, Adams, Mitchell, Ware, Dixon

[TennisMenace 156]

My two cents FWIW:

 

1. Leave out Baldwin and Tyrell

 

2. Don't know who everyone is playing, but Lockett and Adams for sure.

Luckily, this has been my easiest lineup decisions of the playoffs. Won upsets in round 1 and 2, now a 10 point finals favorite. 1/2ppr

 

QB Rodgers

WR Julio (hopefully)

WR D. Adams

RB Freeman

RB Kelley

W/TE A. Jefferey

W/TE/RB Gore

K Lutz

D San Diego

 

Bench

Hill (no vs Denver/Maclin back)

Gabriel (only if Julio out again)

Britt (possible fill in instead of Gabriel but doubtful)

Mitchell (unprediable workload after inconsistent weeks)

Dixon (unprediactble vs Freeman/Gore/Kelley)

Prater

 

If Julio is a full go, I got nothing to ponder. Just win.

Congrats. It sounds like you know what you are doing and have a plan. I wish it were that easy for me.

No way would I play Julio. Just bc yahoo projects him to get 22 points doesn't mean he is going too. More like 2 points as a decoy

[eagles115 23]

Ya it's looking I'm gonna bench hill as well. I'm looking at starting djax or lockett. Potentially Snead.
