Well, My Geno LU actually did best for me this week, even with him going out. Like you said it enabled me to play Julio, AJ, and Evans at WR, with Doyle and that made up for the loss of Geno. I would have liked to seen how he did the whole game, plus I had Marshall in another LU and that hurt him also.
The Thursday night lock killed me this week. I had Hoyer, which I thought was great value, then he gets hurt. Which happens so no big deal. But I also had Jeffery and that hurt. I made the mistake of putting Gillislee in at RB also, and would have changed him out, but couldn't because it was locked.
I went with the Chalk at RB in Murray, Ware, Rodgers. I liked Blount a lot, but thought he was too risky for cash.
Julio, AJ, Evans, TY, and Marshall were my guys at WR. I had Brady at QB in 1 LU, so I had to go with Evans, TY, and Marshall in that one. Like I said, if Geno doesn't get hurt I liked Marshall to get lots of targets.
TE- Doyle, Barnidge, and Bennett. Doyle was a steal looking back, but who really knows. I thought Bennett was also, and looked what happened.
New England and Minn were my defenses. The only other way I was thinking was Denver on my Thur/Mon LU.
All that being said I always play 3 cash LU's. I will usually always do a high/mid/low QB. I always stack that QB with a WR or TE. The reason is I also play these LU's in 3x, 5x, and 3.,5,10,20,40,100 man leagues. I will also throw each one into a GPP.
I will say that the Chalk plays have been hitting pretty decent this year so far, but the weeks they don't that is when the 3 LU can really save you. It's happened already a few times this year. Another reason I like the 3 LU method, and use them in the contest I do, is that I only have to win 1 out of 3 and have a great chance of still breaking even or winning a little bit. That has happened 3 out of 7 weeks this year, and I have won money each time because the one that cashed also did well in the leagues and 3x, 5x slates. I think Dodds does something along those lines also.
