Starting lineup decisions based on "who's due" (1 Viewer)

[Captain Spaulding]

I play in a primarily TD scoring system in my fantasy league and have 3 Tight Ends. None of them are stud worth at all...they only seem to catch 2-3 balls per game, but each of them seem to score a TD every 2-3 weeks so far this year (no back to back consistency at all). So I've been going with the "who's due" principle playing the TE whom hasn't scored in a week or 2. Seems to be working pretty good as I've picked the correct TE the last 3 weeks (not really looking at defensive matchups at all). Same thing seems to apply to my 2 kickers on my roster. Both have almost identical total season pts. (rank 14th and 15th as kickers) and alternate weeks of high/low performance. I stopped analyzing the matchups, weather and such and if 1 kicker was cold last week, I'll assume he'll be the hot choice this week. Goes against all of the analysis and logic and such but seems to be working for me lately. Anyone else make decisions this way?

Scoring from mid-teir TE's and Kickers are pretty much a crap shoot, so whatever works for you stick with it. Not much use in overthinking those type of calls.

Thanks for the support. Its a dynasty league and I really haven't been able to land via rookie draft or trading for a top notch TE yet so I use what I've got from the free agent pool. Same for kickers. Must be working cuz I'm sitting in 1st place at the moment out of 14 teams.

Kinda.

I've used Collie his last 2 games while going through bye weeks as my WR3 and been rewarded nicely, but I feel he's "un-due" and am rolling Donnie Avery out vs DET as my WR3 instead and benching Collie.
