Latavius Murray

Martavis Bryant

Julio Jones/ Harry Douglas

Andre Johnson

Donte Moncrief

Kenny Stills

 
First time asking all season, but with the ship on the line... I'm asking...

I need a RB and a Flex out of the below.... Its a .5 PPR league.

Alf Morris

Steven Jackson

Larry Fitz

Jordan Mathews.

 
Bloom,

Is it getting too sneaky to play Kelce over Graham? Also having a hard time deciding between Big Ben and Matt Ryan, and the Pats D or Lions D...

cheers!

 
Really enjoy the podcasts - my first year as a listener and I am hooked!

I need to start 2 of these Wide Receivers - full PPR

Demaryius Thomas @ Bengals - Monday night (I'm definitely starting him)

Brandon LaFell @ Jets - 1 PM - LaFell has been limited in practice this week, Edelman is also Questionable

Kenny Stills home vs. Falcons - 1 PM

Josh Gordon @ Panthers - 1 PM

Donte Moncrief @ Cowboys - 4 PM (if TY Hilton is out - I won't start him if Hilton is active)

The rest of my lineup is:

QB - Alex Smith

RB - DeMarco Murray/Joseph Randle, CJ Anderson (good call on him BTW - thanks for the advice) and Tre Mason - I wll start all 3, wth one as my flex

TE - Delanie Walker

DST - Lions or Ravens (I think I am leaning towards Lions)

K - Dan Bailey

 
Good Morning Bloom,

Thanks you so much for great advice all season!

Team 1 I am an underdog so need some upside!

QB gets 0.5 per completion, 1pt for 20 passing yards, 1pt 10 rush yards, and all TD's =6

Need 1:

Sanchez, RG3, A Smith or Dalton

PPR Flex, need 2:

Benjamin , Julius, Gordon, Douglas, Joseph Randle, PT

Need 1 D/ST:NEP, BAL or PHI

------------------------

Team 2 Non PPR

1 Flex:

Benjamin, Gordon, Jeffery,Ivory, Starks, PT, L Murray

 
Hi Bloom

0.5 PPR league final. Two quickies:

1. Forte or Mason (given Chicago's QB sitch)

2. Wright or Cameron at TE? I am leaning Wright...

Thanks!

 
Hi Bloom: 1/2 point PPR for these Q's

1 Djax or VJax? 2 point bonus for 40+ yard plays (don't have to be TDs)

2 Pick 3: Boldin, Colston, VJax, Andre Johnson

3 DST: Buffalo, SEA, BAL. Std scoring (only points against scoring, Ints, FR, etc, no yardage against scoring)

4 Julius Thomas or Witten

I have 2 questions.

RG3 or Phillip Rivers

1 of the following:

Matt Forte

Kelvin Benjamin

Jeremy Hill

Gio Bernard

10 points per TD and PPR for over 5 catches.

I expect that I'll be trailing and will need to makeup points. Thanks for doing this all year Sig!

If Hilton sits, I'm tempted to play Montcrief at WR2 over Josh Gordon in my 1pt ppr league. Good move or no? Thanks!

 
Hi Sig, this is my first time making it this far in a ppr league and it definitely requires a little bit different strategy. I made it this far due to my loaded WRs. But now I have all kinds of concerns.

Need either 2 RBs and 4 WRs or 3 RBs and 3 WRs

RBs

McCoy: big disappointment this year. Polk getting goal line and more reps?

Asiata: seems like a great start with his volume

Hill: do not like the matchup and Gio would be pass catcher especially if they fall behind

WRs

Cobb: no-brainer

Hilton: as of Friday looking as if he won't play.

Jeffery: Clausen!? God help me...

Hopkins: 4th string QB?

Watkins: hardly used anymore.

Boldin: Kaepernick sucks.

Seems like a lot of unfortunate circumstances affecting my WRs and add to that McCoy Saturday, I have some tough decisions.

TIA!
mccoy hill asiata - cobb watkins hopkins if active, if not jeffery

 
Thank you Mr. Bloom

stick with demarco murray if he starts? got randle ready if he sits but im nervous. only other rb I could use is herron.

1 ppr

pick 2 WR from

DJax vs phili

Charles Johnson @ mia

moncrief @ dal

got djax and Johnson in now but if I hear Hilton is out I will sub in moncrief for Johnson. agree?

pick 2 RB

L. murray vs buff

crowell @ car

herron @ dal

ivory vs ne

vereen @ nyj

got murray and herron in now. agree?
murray in if active, if not randle

moncrief for johnson yes

vereen and murray

 
Need some help this week (Standard Scoring, Championship Game)

QB: Rivers, Kaep, or Orton?

Flex: Alshon, Stills, J. Stewart, or D. Adams

Would be hesitant to start Stewart as I already have Benjamin and Olsen in my starting lineup and I don't think I am willing to put my fantasy season in the hands of the Panthers!

Thanks!

Lucky enough to make the championship in 3 out of 4 leagues. Underdog in both of these match ups:

League 1 - PPR

WR 2 – Charles Johnson or H. Douglas (if Julio is out)

RB 2 – G. Bernard or T. Gerhart

Flex – D. Herron, L. Murray, S. Bailey or one of the above sits

League 2 – Non PPR

WR 2 – Michael Floyd, S. Bailey, A. Hurns or H. Douglas (if Julio is out)

Flex – G. Bernard, I. Crowell, L. Blount or one of the above WR

TE – H. Miller or K. Rudolph

Thanks for doing this Bloom, it is much appreciated and helped get me to where I am!
douglas

would have said gerhart (sorry)

cjohnson

douglas

gio

heath

 
Well, I went with Gerhart, which probably wasn't a bad move. He did give me more points than my No. 2 RB had in either of the other playoff weeks. So I'll change my question to this. My PPR league has a two-week final that goes into W17. Ridiculous, I know. Any RB you think I can grab with the hope of hitting the lottery in W17, taking into consideration the wacky things that can happen with teams resting their starter or other teams with nothing to play for wanting to take a look at what they have in a younger backup? I could pick up at least two guys this week just to hold into next week and see if there's any news that makes them playable. Options I'm considering include TRich @ Ten, Oliver @ KC, Hillman vs Oak, Blue vs Jax, Knile vs SD, Hyde vs Ari, Randle @ Was, Ben Tate vs Chi, Todman @ Hou, Ka'Deem Carey @ Min.
Blue and Knile are great calls. with playoff seeding so up in the air, not sure many playoff teams will be resting players

 
Need two from Wallace, Bailey and McCoy.

Leaning Bailey/McCoy but Wallace could have a good game and I need upside. Am I overthinking this if I bench McCoy? PPR

 
Championship game. 1.0 PPR. I start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1 Flex RB/WR/TE

Here's my options:

It looks like D. Murray will play. If so, obviously I start him at RB.

For my other RB do I start J. Hill or FJax?

And for my flex, do I start Douglas (assuming Julio sits), LaFell (my opponent is starting Brady at QB), or Hill/FJax?

Oh yeah, and J. Thomas or Bennett at TE? I'm getting a tingling that Thomas might be productive this week. The whole Clausen thing makes things very uncertain, especially vs Detroit.

 
2 RB, 1 Flex (0.5 PPR)

Joique Bell v CHI
Mark Ingram v ATL
Jeremy Hill v DEN
Josh Gordon v CAR

1 TE (0.5 PPR)

Mychal Rivera v BUF
Kyle Rudolph v MIA
Scott Chandler v OAK

Championship in 5 of 6 thanks to you, 1 is hurting my brain though... nonppr, gonna give all options if that is ok.

3wr:

ODB

Julio

Gordan

K benji

M bryant

Douglas

2 RB

Lacy

Hill

Asiata

+ 1 flex from above

Sorry to give whole line up, just so many dudes w question marks. Projected above w current lienup, but don't feel good and dude I'm playing has strong lineup

 
Standard scoring. Need starting QB and flex. Plus, can I start Forte as RB1 with confidence?

Rivers or Newton

Forte

Forsett

Dez

OBJ

Gronk

Flex options

Mason

Hill

TY

Randle

 
Saturday players involved...

Need a QB (all TDs = 6 pts, turnovers = minus 2). I'm roughly a 20 pt favorite over my opponent, so I'm thinking I need the higher floor QB?

Rivers

Tannehill

RG3

Orton

 
Standard league in Finland!

My team:

QB RG3

WR1: OBJ

WR2: Sanders

WR3: KB

RB1: Foster

RB2: Forte

TE: Gronk

flex: JStew

K: Prater

D/st: CAR

Bench:

Gordon

Starks

A.Smith

R.Cooper

E.Royal

H.Nicks

My opponent:

QB: P.Manning

WR1: AJ Green

WR2: Hilton

WR3: Evans

RB1: Morris

RB2: L.Miller

TE: D.Allen

flex: S.Jackson

K: Barth

D/st: DET

Bench:

Sanu

J.Cameron

H.Douglas

Daniel Thomas

Helu

J.Randle.

Based on that matchup and rosters, do I need to make any changes for my starting lineup? RG3 still over Smith? Who has the edge? I feel like I am stuck...as a underdog destined to lose and I feel frustrated.

Other waiver options, RB Alfonso Smith @ SD or WR D Moncrief @ Dal.

I think I should start Lafell, but after that no idea.

For context here is my opponent's lineup, so not looking good. Might need boom or bust.

Romo

E. Sanders

Randall Cobb

Alshon Jeffrey

CJ Anderson

Mark Ingram

Rob Gronkowski

Jimmy Graham

Baltimore

Bench

Demarco Murray

Reggie Bush

Pierre Thomas

Standard, no ppr.

Pick one:

Gordon, J Matthews or S Smith.

Pick one:

Martellus Bennett, Dwayne Allen.

I'm normally leaning Gordon and Martellus but qb situations scare me.

 
Sig, thank you as usual. 2 for 2 on championship games thanks to FBG! Obviously looked at rankings but maybe matchup context changes

1/4 ppr, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 flex, playing highest scoring team w/ manning, gronk, murray - projected points equal

Pick 3 for rb/flex: l. Bell, j bell, McCoy, mason, hill, Ingram

Pick 2 for wr: Colton, Wallace, Douglas, Baldwin

Te: reed, Rivera, Cameron

Standard, 2 rb, 2 wr, 1 flex, 4 pt qb td (playing gb stack of Rogers, Cobb, I am a decent favorite by yahoo)

Qb: Sanchez, Newton

Pick 2 rb: forsett, c Anderson, Ingram

Flex: rb above not selected, aj green

Te: kelce, j Thomas

 
Sig,

In my championship with the psychological advantage of my teams avatar being a horse in a Steelers jersey. http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/2559911/horsefootball.jpg Having a last man on the victory boat debate.

J. Gordon vs Moncrief vs LaFell vs L.Miller vs J. Randle

I feel Gordon is the highest celling if Johnny Football can put it together and is the potential championship haymaker. How much of the celling am I willing to sacrifice for the higher floor of Moncrief or LaFell. Should I even consider any of the RBs? Slot in Moncrief and swap with Randle if Demarco is a no go?

With you advice my horse will trot to victory!

 
Ppr

Wrs are Antonio, ODB and Julio. Do I start at Julio at super flex or start Sanchez, playing today obviously, at that spot?

And in another super flex league, Sanchez or joique?

Hey Sig, I've got your insider view from MyFBG and listened to all the podcasts, still struggling with one last question.

Non-ppr, favored to win in a close one so don't need boom/bust as much as solid production.

Need an 2 RBs and a Flex from:

Forte vs DET

Mason vs NYG

Stewart vs CLE

Hill vs DEN

Asiata @ MIA

Thanks!

 
Need some help, Championship game, thank you very much.

PPR, need 1 for my flex: Tre Mason, Latavuis Murray, Julius Thomas or Gio Bernard. I'm already starting Hill as my RB1 (14 team league, we only have to start 1 RB).

My current starting line up:

QB Teddy Bridgewater
WR Demaryius Thomas
WR Jordy Nelson
RB Jeremy Hill
TE Antonio Gates
Flex Harry Douglas
Flex Tre Mason
K Cody Parkey
Def: Pats
If Julio starts, I might sit Harry Douglas as well for Latavuis

QB question: I had Cutler, but now starting Teddy Bridgewater. I picked up Clausen just in case and the team I'm playing is starting three Bears: Jeffery, Forte and Wilson. I considered starting Clausen since three of his players are tied to him, but I also think that I'm thinking too much about it and the Clausen plan would back fire on me. Thoughts? We give 6 points for passing TDs, -2 for ints, 1 point for every 25 yards passing, 3 point bonus at 300 yards passing
mason

TB

 
Hi Sig

TD heavy league must pick 2 of the following at least 1 must be a RB

(Additional info Aaron Rodgers, Antonio Brown, Odell Beckham and Travis Kelce are always in the lineup)

Reggie Bush at Bears

Ronnie Hillman at Bengals

Steven Jackson at Saints

Vincent Jackson vs Packers

Kenny Stills vs Falcons

Shane Vereen at Jets

Hi Sig - big week as if you didn't know. 3 questions:

Which DEF?

Lions @ Bears (suddenly even juicier due to the Cutler news)

Eagles @ Redskins (love them due to the mess that Griffin is)

Need to pick 2 from the following, non-ppr:

TY Hilton @ Cowboys (if he plays obviously)

Harry Douglas @ Saints (assuming Julio doesn't play as looks to be the case)

Joseph Randle v Colts (assuming Murray is out or limited and it's known ahead of time)

Josh Gordon @ Panthers (he's an option but not a strong one)

2 choices at TE, neither good but need 1 of them

Owen Daniels v Texans

Heath Miller v Chiefs

Thanks so much, Merry Christmas and good luck to you in your bowl(s) also!
det

douglas gordon (think murray is playing)
