Looking at values here...

QB

Flacco still cheap @ $7400

Schaub @ $7100

Ponder @ $6400 - Titans

RB

Gore @ $7100 - due to his matchup

McGahee @ $6200

Mendenhall @ $5400

Battle @ $5400 - Saints

Bolden @ $5200? - not sure what to make of Ridley/Bolden

WR

Harvin @ $6400 - off game, but didn't expect to see him get even cheaper. Titans.

Simpson @ $4700 - not that he set the world on fire, but I figured his price would rise more than $200. Titans.

Hixon @ $4700 - pending Nicks situation, Browns are a juicy matchup

Garcon @ $5500 - closer to 100% this week?

James Jones @ $5400 - Colts

Floyd @ $5500 - Saints

TE

Pitta at $5000 - despite the odd goose-egg last week, still really cheap

Rudolph @ $5500 - against the Titans who can't cover a TE at all

K

Blair Walsh @ $5000

Graham @ $5000

DEF

GB @ $5000 - @ Colts

Hou @ $5200 - @ Jets

Giants @ $5200 - vs Browns

The Vikings passing game is a common theme...

Vikings matchup is good, but it was good last week too, and a lot of people bit on Harvin last week. You can't really count on the matchup. I'm not saying avoid them completely, but loading up could be dangerous.
 
Torrey Smith $6400 @ KC

I also like Dalton $8000 vs MIA. The Dolphins dont give up much on the ground, but the last 3 QBs to face them have thrown 45+ times, and each has thrown for over 300yds (Palmer, Sanchez, Kolb). Sanchez and Palmer only three 1 TD each, but Kolb tossed 3. Neither Palmer nor Sanchez has a WR like Green or Fitz.

I see a possible 300 and 2-3 tds for Dalton this week.

Gotta figure out which defense to play this week. Lotta juicy matchups. Houston $5200 at Jets has to be the front-runner as far a value, could easily see the Jets shut out at home 2 weeks in a row. But the Bears, Ravens, and 49ers could all be well worth the extra couple of hundred bucks this week. Gotta figure out which D has the best chance at a TD or two. Could be the Ravens with how bad Cassel has been playing thus far.

 
All I know is that if I want to win I need to pick the defense that puts up 20+ points. At least that seems to be the determining factor in the $25 and $50 contests I've been in.

haha, yeah I bet a lot of people are going to be chasing this guy this week, last week was the week to have him in your lineup. I always find that people are chasing guys who do well the week before only to have them put up minimal points on your lineup.

There are an above average number of values at WR this week. This is definitely going to be a fun one.Just don't start the Qs in Thursday night games. Nicks set $500 on fire for me last week ><
 
Any of you guys go up against the HTH pros? One guy(condia) has earned $210K in 3 years

almost all of it on NFL games.

No. I've noticed that Condia puts out a lot of H2H games for people to join.$210k doesn't tell us much. How much has he lost?I deposited $35, have $195 in "winnings", and have $43 in my account. Obviously he's playing a lot of games and probably some big money games and he's probably doing pretty well, but I'd be curious to know what he actually has in his account.

rcgpoker is in what appears to be a thousand 50/50s eery week. His profile says he's won over $675k across all sports. In week 4 his lineup only put up 112 points. I'd be curious to know how much he lost.

Based on my present numbers, most guys at the top are pulling in ~20% of their net cashes in profit. My sample size is only the four weeks this season though.

rcgpoker fields more than one lineup. http://www.fanduel.com/entry/VMWMBE
 
I really like B.Lloyd at WR this week. I'll be shocked if McDaniels doesn't use this matchup to get Lloyd free and burn his former team early and often.

 
Lost? I don't think a "gambling" site is going to tell us that. I'm going to throw $2 against this guy just to see his lineup.

there is no such thing as a "pro" here. the skill come with identifying the good plays, which we have easily done here. beyond that, its luck.the leader board show money won but not money spent. condia will play $5,000 in games, break even and be atop the leaderboard. he's not bad, he's just not a "pro". his only advantage he may have is his experience

:goodposting: That's what it comes down to.I've played 10 $50 head to head contests. I've won half, lost half, and I'm stuck $50!!!What a shock.
 
My 55k expert team

QB - Dalton

RB - Benson

RB - McGahee

WR - Harvin

WR - Nelson

WR - Hixon

TE - Rudolph

K - Gould

DEF - N.O.

can't be much worse than last week.

 
I am playing in a few of these leagues, does any one else find it quite time consuming?

Love the concept of these type of leagues, but math with fantasy sucks, drafting is part of the fun.

Carry on.

With Harrison and Polamalu returning, I like the Steelers D $5000 at home vs PHI.

Also...Alfred Morris $6700 at home vs ATL. Whos rolling with him this week?

Heres what Atlanta has given up on the ground:

J Charles: 87yds (and 2tds to other rushers)

McGahee: 113yds, 2tds

Battle/Matthews: 99yds combined

Newton: 86yds 1td, D Williams 49yds 1td, J Stewart 40yds

I take about an hour on my initial lineup and from my initial lineup I take my core and fill in about 10-15 other lineups with different supplementary players.Each additional lineup takes about a minute. I play in 3 mans, if that makes any difference.
 
I get so much more enjoyment out of the weekly leagues now. My yearly leagues are basically an after thought. i wont be playing in any season long leagues going forward.

I love drafting new teams every week... and making mad payola. :banned:

Same here. I quit my yearly league 5 or 6 years ago and have had zero interest in playing again until I discovered Fanduel a few weeks ago. Now I'm hooked all over again. I like the fact that you dont have to manage a team all season and worry about injuries, waiver wire, etc. Its laid back and stress free.
 
Im rolling with Alfred Morris on 25% of my teams. Not going with Battle in any, too risky. Im super high on Ryan Williams... I know most dont agree, but wait til tomorrow. I fully understand how bad hes been thus far. But I saw how he finished the game against PHI and hes going to get a chance to win/fortify his RB1 position against a soft D in the spotlight. His expectations for himself are EXTREMELY high, which is something I value a lot.

Hes the only player im using on thursday.

 
Is Arian Foster a must start or does B Tate get a lot of time?

Both? The Jets D is so bad Foster might get pulled 3rd quarter.

 
I'm living and dying with Ryan Williams in 55k expert leagues. With a juicy matchup and a rediculously low cap hit he can win you the week with a solid game. Pitta at 5k also seems a little reactionary from fanduel. I always look for reactionary prices in low cap games and have a 42% win record through 4 weeks. I only play in 3-5 player leagues so 42% is putting me well in the green.

 
Im loving... Jacob Tamme this weekend. Im pretty sure NE has giving up a TD every week to the opposing TE. Dressen snagged one last week, Tamme is up for a little RZ action on Sunday.

Unless a RB is remarkably cheap I don't go with guys that don't either a: score more than average amount of TD's or B: catch a lot of balls. With RG3 leaching every TD inside the 10 that puts Morris down a few pegs. I just can't seem to get him in my lineup over better bets.

Funny. I was just coming back in here to say that I was wrong. I didn't feel comfortable going off memory so I looked at the stats. Sorry if I could have misled anyone.
