Don't sleep on Donte Moncrief: Draft Day steal (1 Viewer)

[Koya]

In over alan robinson and golden tate. UGH

I, too, have him over tate (and Terrance Williams). Would go tate (he's "due") but AZ is a solid defense and Stafford's just been a freakin' mess.

You're playing him over Robinson? Do what you will but I'd rethink that

 

[Jimbo Slice]

Sitting for Hillman and Abdullah

 

[elshagon]

I'm sure there's a bunch of us deciding whether to start him tonight, could be a low scoring game. I'm debating starting Allen Hurns over Moncrief

 

[Soulfly3]

Queef for Crief !!!!

 

[elshagon]

With Hass sick I think the safe bet is to sit Moncrief. Alshon better play or I'm screwed. I have a feeling this game will be ugly

 

[CataclysmicThunder]

I'm starting Moncrief anyway out of desperation. O.O

 

[jmo87usc]

Is moncrief even out there on three wr sets? Maybe I'm wrong but looks like TY AJ and dorsett

They mix Dorsett in occasionally. A lot of times they use Moncrief and TY in 2 WR sets as well.

 

[everydayj]

One catch but at least two drops in traffic so far. Ugh.

 

[timbrah_ho]

Meh. Had to pretty much figure it would be a down game with the QB situation + AJ's homecoming. Just gotta hope he doesn't drop more passes and do damage to long term involvement prospects

Been a few drives they went 2wr 2te where no moncrief. Need a late bail out td like the Tenn gave to damage this night

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Get well soon, Andrew.

 

[Godsbrother]

This has been a brutal game for Moncrief owners

 

[AC05]

Bail-out TD coming

[zftcg]

Wow, he just got dropped for Andre Johnson in one of my leagues. Would you drop Jonathan Stewart or Matt Jones for him?

 

[ROYALWITCHEESE]

Buy now.

 

[Warrior]

sell yesterday.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Oh great, he's the only WR on the field (when they are trying to clock out)

 

[iamkoza]

What a bummer, especially if this game means the 34 year old is finally getting comfortable in offense

 

[Raider Nation]

He had 3 more yards than any of you!

 

[zftcg]

I'm writing this one off as "Let's get Andre involved for his Houston homecoming." Moncrief has too much talent not to emerge in this offense, especially once Luck returns at full strength.

 

[timbrah_ho]

Classic "feed the ball to the player seeking revenge upon his old franchise" game that happens at least once a year. Back to normal programming next week.

Averaged nine targets and scored in all three games with Luck at QB. He remains a WR2.

No. He's a 3 at best

Weren't smart enough to bench him tonight? We will see when Luck gets back.

Not sure if serious

 

[Markus P Dub]

I think it was obvious he was a must sit to me anyways. Assuming you had other options. With a gimpy Luck, the back up spending 2 days in the hospital on a short week and a road game had all indications of a slow/down game for the WRs. A risk I didnt want to take. Monty did ok with Beck last week but I picked up Hurns this week to play over him. I think Monty will be fine going fwd but last night's outing wasnt a surprise to me.

Do these snarly and asinine comments make people feel somehow better about themselves?Not smart enough to not look petty on a message board are we?

Seriously, let's have some damned respect for one another - at least those who don't act like jackasses and fools.

FWIW, anyone stupid enough to dismiss a guy after his first full dud shouldn't be calling out anyone as anything. Guess you must make ALL the right moves there in your little world, eh?

Carry on kids.

 

[CentralPA]

Glad I sat him. The tea leaves showed that this just wasn't going to be a good night for him. He'll have a great game with Luck back next week against the Pats.

 

[Raiderfan32904]

I'm going to try to buy. His price can't be any lower, and I believe in the talent and situation. I sold last him last year for Jeremy Hill, but I think he can be had for a 2nd round pick now, of which I have multiple. We'll see.

 

[Hoss Style]

Buy now.

I've been firmly on board that Hilton is still the #1, and will be for a while, but I'm a believer in Moncrief in the long run. He'll be back when Luck is back. I think he has a shot to be 1B to Hilton's 1A by year's end. I'm with ROYAL here - buy now.

Ya re-read the posts. Moncrief is a must start guy with Luck.Tons of people posted about benching him in this game if you had a decent option. Obviously no one claimed to make all the right moves, no need for the soap box.

 

[dickey moe]

Well, that was a turd.

 

[Poncho]

Well, that was a turd.

My fault, I decided to finally play him over cooks. Now cooks can have his break out game on my bench and wave to me.....

 

[theToes]

I was just offered Moncrief for Kendall Wright. the other owner was very disappointed last night.

 

[The_Fonz]

last night!

Don't do it ... Wright the #1 target and has already had his bye

Moncrief is now the 3A with 3B - Allen and 3C - Fleener ... Behind Hilton - 1 and AJ - 2

You don't think Johnson's game last night was more about his homecoming?

Moncrief was very good with Luck in there.

I can't help but think he returns to the wr2 when Luck returns.

He's either trolling or I want in his league

pathetic

 

[MattFancy]

Disappointing for sure, but not panicking. He had one nice catch that was negated due to penalty. Then was also targeted on a fade route in the end zone where the CB made a nice play to pick the pass of (ended up negated due to a defensive holding against Moncreif). Think the Colts wanted Johnson to have his FU game against the Texans. Johnson looked like he played more last night than he did the last 3 weeks.

 

[Faust]

Rotoworld:

ESPN Colts reporter Mike Wells said Donte Moncrief is "on his way to being the No. 2 receiver."

Moncrief was quiet during Andre Johnson's breakout last week, but Wells thinks Andrew Luck's (shoulder) return should be good for Moncrief. "He’s developed that relationship with Luck where he’s comfortable and he doesn’t hesitate going to him," Wells said. "Last year as a rookie, he had some concerns about drops. But Luck obviously has trust with him now." Moncrief should carry more value than Johnson the rest of the season, and he is a solid WR3 this week against New England.

Houston's pathetic defense had a lot more to do with Andre's "breakout" than anything he did.

 

[kittenmittens]

I just flipped Gio and Moncrief for Julian Edelman in non PPR redraft.

I like Moncrief still just have a lot of exposure. I'm hesitant to start him without Luck playing though...

 

[Black]

After 3 targets last week, anyone rolling with him this week vs. NE?
