Started glancing at stuff so let's fire up this thread!
Yeah, this is a tough one. NO D looks like it's trash again, but then again, so does Car's O.I will probably start with a core of:
Newton vs NO
Hunt vs LAC
Benjamin vs NO
I understand the reasoning for going with Cam, and New Orleans could certainly be a "get right" game, but his accuracy issues through 2 weeks combined with a potentially nagging ankle make him hard to trust as a core component this week.I will probably start with a core of:

Agreed. He's never been accurate either so it's not like the last 2 games have been blips.I understand the reasoning for going with Cam, and New Orleans could certainly be a "get right" game, but his accuracy issues through 2 weeks combined with a potentially nagging ankle make him hard to trust as a core component this week.
What scares me is I think Carolina is "all in" with a "Cam should run less" mentality to protect their asset....only he's not very good as a pocket passer. And now Olsen is out. Funchess is trash. KB is a jump ball receiver. I'm avoiding all Panthers except their kicker and defense until they turn in a good game. You would think it would be against NO but that's a division matchup so no thanks.Agreed. He's never been accurate either so it's not like the last 2 games have been blips.
Agree on those two games...but I'm afraid of Cousins / Redskins offense....feels like a crapshoot whenever I play any Redskins.At first glance, it looks like an odd week, and maybe one to target a lot of 7K players?
I think the QBs to target might be the guys from the Atl/Det and Oak/Wash games. Both home QBs are currently underdogs.
For the Rbs it looks like the guys at the top are away, or at home vs a decent D. Still thinking Bell, Ajayi and Hunt could be looked at. Interesting cheap guys going against trash Ds in McCaffrey and Crowell (for gpps)
Yeah, if he isn't running, I don't think Cam is a dfs play at all.What scares me is I think Carolina is "all in" with a "Cam should run less" mentality to protect their asset....only he's not very good as a pocket passer.

I think the other game to look at is KC/SD. I was surprised to see KC on the lists of points allowed to positions this season. Chargers are giving up the 5th most points to QBs this season, and KC are 6th on the list.Agree on those two games...but I'm afraid of Cousins / Redskins offense....feels like a crapshoot whenever I play any Redskins.
Yeah or Stewart/Car D assuming JStew is cheaper than CMC....haven't looked at prices.Yeah, if he isn't running, I don't think Cam is a dfs play at all.
NO defense is terrible all around. What about something like McCaffrey/Car D in a gpp?
KC is interesting....I think I"m going to maintain a lot of Kelce and Hunt exposure until they fall down....though Chargers at home is hot sauce with Engram / Bosa so I'm not sure I'll do much Alex / Tyreek.I think the other game to look at is KC/SD.

Don't really need to trust Cousins. You could do something like Carr-Cooper and run it back with Pryor or C.Thompson in a gpp.
I can't remember ever seeing AJ Green's salary so low. Might be an interesting gpp play.I wasn't aware that Eifert is dealing with injuries.
GB/CIN difficult to gauge with so many injuries (packers tackles, nelson, cobb?, eifert) AND the new coordinator for the Bungles.
Brady hosting Houston is also juicy (cornerback, TE injuries) but Gronk's groin and Amendola's knee and concussion up in the air.
Vegas has Pittsburg, Atlanta, Green Bay, Oakland, Carolina and NE scoring about 4 TDs. Ben is on the road at boggy Soldier field but his defense should feast. I wonder if Bell can finally produce at Soldier field? Mike Glennon may provide some short fields to the Steelers.
I think Matt Ryan may be the chalk QB unless GB and NEP injuries get simplified. I hear Hightower may be back. That would make life tougher for DeShaun Watson.
Oakland and Carolina MAY do well or they MAY disappoint (vs WAS and NO respectively).
I don't particularly care for the week 3 schedule
Fired OC. The Soulless Ginger looking done. I could see it going lower as the season wears on. What a waste of a WR in what should be a prime season for him.I can't remember ever seeing AJ Green's salary so low. Might be an interesting gpp play.
How about Hopkins in NE?Fired OC. The Soulless Ginger looking done. I could see it going lower as the season wears on. What a waste of a WR in what should be a prime season for him.
Another stud being wasted. I like Deshaun, but he's not an NFL QB yet. While I'm down on NE's talent on defense, they can scheme and disguise very well. I have to think they befuddle the rookie, no?How about Hopkins in NE?
I would hope so. Nobody else on the team and is leading the league in targets. Not saying to fire up a Watson-Hopkins stack, but a Brady stack with Hopkins as well might not be a bad idea.Another stud being wasted. I like Deshaun, but he's not an NFL QB yet.

Except that Lamar Miller shouldn't even have a job, so BB will scheme to take Hopkins away. Expect 4/42/0.I would hope so. Nobody else on the team and is leading the league in targets. Not saying to fire up a Watson-Hopkins stack, but a Brady stack with Hopkins as well might not be a bad idea.
I have been deciding between Doyle and going back to Clay.AJ Green - Historically cheap this week. Lock it up.
Hunt - Still too cheap
Doyle - Getting targets in a prime te matchup.
And he has been uncharacteristically vocal about his frustration with the offense...New OC in Cincy...I think they will feed him early and often this week.AJ Green - Historically cheap this week. Lock it up.

K. Benjamin does look good, but there is something that is off about cam this year. Maybe he just hasn't healed up the way he should have with that offseason surgery.And he has been uncharacteristically vocal about his frustration with the offense...New OC in Cincy...I think they will feed him early and often this week.
Unfortunately, as a whole, I am just not feeling it this week. Hard to get a read. Can I really be looking towards Cutler? K. Benjamin looks tempting. Crowell looks tempting. One of the defenses heading to London (Bal or Jax)? I don't know; the week just feels weird to me. Guys I keep looking at are guys I just don't trust. I will probably scale back my play this week.
My first FD GPP entry...14 to go
Kizer / Duke Johnson / Rashard Higgins
Bell / Julio / Golloday / Gronk
Gostkowski / Eagles

A lot of love for Kizer in the IVC, I know it is Indy, but that is a big leap of faith for a guy that just turned the ball over 5 times in 2 games.
The funny thing is just about every time I autofill a few spots, it spits out Kizer and Indy D.A lot of love for Kizer in the IVC, I know it is Indy, but that is a big leap of faith for a guy that just turned the ball over 5 times in 2 games.
Its because auto fill cantapply judgement such as kizer survived two rough spots and know gets a chance to face a horrid football team.The funny thing is just about every time I autofill a few spots, it spits out Kizer and Indy D.
Oh right. Zero chance I'm paying for Pro Plus.Lineup builder in the paid part of fbgs
But we may have to wait until Saturday to find out if one or both of the Packers offensive tackles will play. And Gronk and Cobb did not practice. So, mixed bag.Amendola and Jordy Nelson both back at practice....the clouds are dissipating.
Already paid for itself when 15 or 16 of my 18 cash lineups it built hit last weekOh right. Zero chance I'm paying for Pro Plus.
I get why people don't want to pay for stuff like that, but it is by far the most cost effective pay info for dfs that I have seen. Most sites are $30-$40/month or a few hundred for a season.Already paid for itself when 15 or 16 of my 18 cash lineups it built hit last week

I've paid for both. I find the FBG product to be superior, FWIW.I'm a loyal subscriber, I'm just not that into DFS where I want to pay ANY site for their DFS content.
If I were, I think I would probably be paying rotogrinders. Not a knock on this site, just my $0.02.
