Selling Lynch? (1 Viewer)

[BallsySmurf]

Anybody out there sold "high" on Lynch? With his schedule for the fantasy playoffs (SF twice, and AZ in week 16), should we ride Lynch all the way to the end, or sell now??

You own him in 4 leagues?

If you are deep at rb than not a bad idea. I'm stuck at rb right now so I just have to ride him. The only way I could trade him is for another rb and I just don't see that trade happening.

I'm not. As we've learned in the past, Lynch tends to play fine against quality defenses, especially in fantasy playoffs. I remember a few years ago when a ton of owners benched him in week 16 because he was playing the 49ers who hadn't given up a rushing touchdown all season (or something close). He ended up blowing up on them.

Sure, if you can get really good value there is no reason not to sell him...but I wouldn't sell him because of the schedule.

Lynch's last 5 games against the 49ers he has 584 total yards and 7 touchdowns. That averages out to a scoring average of about 20 points per game. He had at least 100 total yards in 4 out of 5 games and scored a touchdown in 4 out of 5 games. Here's a breakdown of each game.

135 yards, 3 touchdowns= 31.5

72 yards, 1 touchdown - 13.2

116 yards, 0 touchdowns - 11.6

130 yards, 2 touchdowns- 25.0

131 yards, 1 touchdown - 17.1
