    Draft Kings Week 7

    Rams at home for $2400 are a must play for me in cash games.

    Jeremy Hill will be the #1 fantasy RB this year

    I am certainly not EXPECTING any particular D to remain terrible, or even for any particular game to give Hill trouble with a bad game-script. My point is that unless something changes from last year to this year (e.g., they trust Hill more as a passing-downs back if they're in catch up mode)...

    Jeremy Hill will be the #1 fantasy RB this year

    Yeah but there is a difference between just having a tougher matchup and therefore efficiency is not as high, and being game-scripted out, which is what happened to Hill in four games last year. Week 10: Cleveland: 12 carries 55 yards, 0 TDs Week 13: Tampa Bay: 13 carries 40 yards, 0 TDs Week...

    Jeremy Hill will be the #1 fantasy RB this year

    I'm debating him or CJ Anderson (or Gronk or WR) at 1.06 in a 12 team non-ppr standard draft. Feel like Anderson's opportunity is better, but Hill's talent is better. Both have the potential to put up a #1 overall season. Leaning Anderson right now as the Broncos oline looks like it might...

    Anybody buying on Demarco Murray?

    Murray probably has one of the higher ceilings among the top 15 RBs. He's in a good high paced offense, has a good OL, plays some weak Ds, is super talented, so if he puts it all together and they give him 20 touches/game, I could see something like 280 carries, 1280 yards, 40 catches, 300...

    GPP- Does Ownership Really Matter

    I think the point is that you have to have SOME uniqueness, and can't just go 9 for 9 with chalk plays. Think of it like an NCAA tourney bracket. If you take the favorite like UK, so will 50% of the field you're playing with. Even if UK wins it all, you're going to have to nail your early...

    CJ Anderson V Jeremy Hill

    As long as Gio is around, I think Hill's upside is limited. I agree that his talent is great, but SO IS GIO'S. Remember back to preseason time last year and Gio was going in the early 2nd round as the next Ray Rice. I think with a healthy Hill and Gio, we'll see weeks where Hill gets 20+...

    Ben Roethlisberger - initially didn't want Steelers QB Kenny Pickett to succeed

    I'm having a hard time with Big Ben in the top 5-6 of most rankings this year. Everyone is assuming he is just going to throw another 4900+ yards and 30+ TDs. Look at his career stats. Other than last season, the guy has never thrown more than 4328 yards. He matched his career high with 32...

    3 must have players

    Andrew Luck - Think he is set for one of those historic QB seasons. D still stinks. Moncrief a year older, add in AJ and Dorsett, a healthy Fleener and Allen, plus the rushing we know he'll produce. I think he'll be in a Gronk-like tier by himself at the QB position at the end of the year...

    Upside guys.

    For RBs, I'm looking for guys from the 7th round on who have a clear path to stud production with one injury. Not someone who will be in a committee if the stud goes down, and not anyone who has much value currently without the starter being hurt. Freeman West Hyde Michael Knile Davis...

    Need help with determining draft spots at annual pre-draft

    In my league that's been together with the same guys for 12 years now, we don't use FAAB money, but we do the 12 names out of the hat to determine preference order. Also, we key each of the three divisions by draft slot, so one division is picks 1, 4, 7, and 10, another is 2, 5, 8, and 11, and...

    Anybody buying on Demarco Murray?

    The D was awful last year too and Murray still put up great per game numbers. As a Cowboys fan, acknowledging how bad our D is this year, I pray that Garrett/Linehan lean heavily on the run and short passing game to control the clock, a la what the Chargers did down the stretch last year. With...

    Locking up a backfield with two mid-round picks - Viable RB2 or RB3 st

    So I've done several mocks this year and find myself frequently only taking one RB in my first two or three picks, employing some version of the Matt Waldman upside-down drafting strategy. When I look for RBs in rounds 4-7, I find guys with question marks as to how big a share of the pie...
