K. Faulk (1 Viewer)

What is the feeling on Faulk this week vs the Miami def? I have seen a few sites that have him ranked in the top 10 this week, but I'm having a hard time believing he will reach those expectations. I feel like he'll get around 50 rec yds, but I don't see the Pats running more than 10 times in this game. It feels like a spread them out and throw all game to me. And I'd be very surprised to see Faulk in the backfield inside the 10 yd line. I'm guessing you'll see Evans.

So, 10-15 rushes for 40-50 yds and maybe another 50 rec with 0 Tds.

I can't see much more than that...anyone else?

Doesn't feel like a top 10 start to me this week. I picked him up, but would like to see what everyone else thinks before giving him the green light over K. Jones.

In non-ppr league I would rather start Evans since I am guessing he will get more carries and see GL work, like you said.

NE could have this one wrapped by halftime and could see heavy dose of Heath in 2nd half to keep Faulk fresh for the following week with Maroney probably in doubt (again).

I was going to start Faulk but now with the news Maroney and Evans may both see the field, I am going to go with Watson. I still think Faulk rushes for 30 and catches for about 40.

I would only start Faulk if you have no other options.. He will share what little they do run. And if Maroney is OUT Faulk will not get a ton of carries if the game is in hand. BB needs to keep one of the top 3 healthy. He is worth a gambe in a PPR league but with BB its a gamble.

Theres a great chance he'll catch a short pass in the red zone for TD in this game

10-12 carries, 4-5 receptions, 75-80 total yards. 50% chance of a TD.

You think Evans will get any yards?

I have a feeling that we are going to see the Brady Bunch try to throw and run out a draw much more than typical. Out of this alignment Faulk will get at least 15 running plays including 9 or 10 draws. Tack on about 5 or 6 dump offs/screens. Total = 110 yards and a TD.

Given the woes in the Miami secondary and BB's penchant for the unconventional, I could see him purposely trying to complete a game without a single rush.

I mean it. I'm not counting on it, but stranger things have happened.

You guys see Faulk and Watson about the same?

Do you mean Faulk and EVANS? Watson most likely won't play.

 

[Deuce'sWild]

I'm guessing he means K. Watson.

I like Watson better personally. As you just never know with BB. I agree that Brady could throw all game. Of course, he might come out and run all game just to throw us for a loop.

ISn't Maroney likely to play? Faulk is no better than a waiver wire gamble if Maroney plays, as he will split and you just can't tell what BB will do.

I would imagine that other sleepers out there like Lance Moore might be a safer play??? Maybe... Maroney playing would impact Faulks value enough to consider other options in my opinion. Although, even 2 yrs ago I remember playing Faulk when Corey Dillon was healthy and playing great, since Faulk had 3rd carries and passes and got 8 12 as a flex spot... So its a gamble, thats all I am saying.
