Week 14 Questions for Bloom (1 Viewer)

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi again! Hope your week is going well. This is 1st week of the playoffs in my money league!!

Standard scoring start 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE & 1 Flex.

As of now, I have Doug Martin & McFadden in at RB, A. Robinson & Julio in at WR, Jordan Reed in at TE & AJ Green in at Flex.

On the bench I have Barnidge, Blount, Ware, C. West, Dem Thomas & Doug Baldwin. Would you out any of these in my lineup? If so, in place of who? Thank you very much!

i have ware/DMC as a coinflip. i lean ware bc of better shot for a TD or two, even tho less volume. worried GB will get up on DAL

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, need to take down the league commish in the playoffs!!!! Thanks in advance for all you do!!!

QB- Big Ben or Fitzpatrick

RB- L Miller

RB/WR- TJ Yeldon or Maclin

WR - JULIO

WR- ODB

FLEX- Martavis Bryant

TE - Reed

Torn between Big Ben or Fitz, but with Martavis in my lineup I'm thinking rolling with Ben

Also, I'm down to 3 players for 2 spots. Right now I'm leaning towards playing Yeldon and JULIO but I could swap either with Maclin. Any thoughts?

ben

yeldon in nonppr

maclin in ppr

 

[snartonick]

PPR need a flex, pick one.

R Hillman

Golden Tate

Vincent Jackson

 

[Team Smokin']

Hey Sig, with news of Lacy being promoted back to RB #1 in GB do I roll with him over Gurley this week and beyond? Lacy or Gurley?

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Walker or ASJ? PPR

Just this week. NO is the worst team against TEs. Jets are pretty good against TEs. I'm really tempted. Walker has been gold for me all season.

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, have questions for two different teams:

First standard ESPN league need a QB out of Wilson, Rodgers, or Winston and then need wr2 and flex out of Cooper, T.Benjamin, Bernard, Mathews, Wheaton

Second league is a ppr and need two RBs out of Allen, Bernard, Gurley, L.Murray

Thanks!

[Sigmund Bloom]

PPR league.

Need a TE with Gronk questionable.

* W. Tye @MIA (On Monday night which helps if Gronk ruled out Sunday night).

* C. Fleener @JAX -- Statistically good matchup and Fleener had good game vs Jax earlier.

* H. Miller @CIN -- On track to play, could be in shootout @CIN, had great game (10 catches) vs CIN earlier.

* J. Tamme @CAR -- Hank out so should see targets. Maybe Norman coverage means more targets. CAR D tough.

* Z. Miller vs WASH -- Bennett IR. Will get targets. Forecast calls for wind and rain though.

My thought process: Unless one of the above provides a significant / clear advantage I should probably go with Tye just in case Gronk active, otherwise, I kick myself if Gronk active and goes off.

Thanks

makes sense to me. fleener if we hear a pessimistic report before gametime

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Defense question.

* DENVER vs OAK -- OAK can obviously move the ball, have weapons. OAK middle of the pack points allowed. Game at home. Division game.

* DET @STL -- Great matchup, but STL shows more spunk at home. DET coming on, but could this be a case of over thinking since I have solid DEN D?

Thanks

DEN

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

PPR League.

Pick 2.

* F. Gore @JAX -- Decent matchup. Paul P. could be out. Should get plenty of touches.

* J. Jones @CAR -- Hard to sit regardless of Norman matchup. If Julio in the slot should get targets despite Ryan's ineptitude.

* S. Watkins @PHI -- Great matchup. Huge upside, but floor always low. Hard to sit him here.

Note: Gore would get 1 point for every 4 rushing attempts so built in floor of 3-4 points tacked onto normal projections.

Thanks

id sit watkins bc of the gore floor

 

[Pfabes]

With all the negativity emanating around Demarco Murray, would you start either Matt Jones or Spiller over him in non-ppr, or take your chances?

Starting 3 of 4 WRs in non-ppr: Watkins, Mackin, VJax, Cooks. Who's riding the pine?

Thanks, Sigmund.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Sig! You've had almost a supernatural ability to pick Hill at the right time. So, Hill or woodhead in PPR?

Also, would you sit cooper for either Zach Miller or Fleener? It's 1.5 TE reception FFPC.

Thanks again my man!

ETA

With the news of Clausin starting for Baltimore do you still keep Wilson in over Eli or Hoyer? Probably a dumb question but...

hill bc i just dont trust SD offense today

i have cooper ahead but wont talk you out of fleener, had huge game vs JAX

wilson stays in

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

0.5 points per reception.

Who is the better stash / block for the playoffs?

* CJ Spiller -- Wk 15 (vs DET), Wk 16 (vs JAX)

* R. Mathews -- Wk 15 (vs AZ), Wk 16 (vs WASH)

* M. Jones -- Wk 15 (vs BUF), Wk 16 (@PHI)

Spiller vs Hightower a complete mystery.

Chance Chip goes with Mathews from here on out.

M. Jones still splitting with Morris, but seems like they want to move on from Morris.

This is in case I have to break glass in case of emergency (i.e. injury) and to block my opponent in week 15.

Thanks

[Sigmund Bloom]

Non PPR

3 of:

Gore

Julio

Cooks

Sanders

sit sanders

 

[PinkydaPimp]

12 team PPR:

Pick 2: Gore, Ivory, Boldin

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

12 Team Standard Scoring except 6 points for TD pass, non PPR

QB - start 1, Wilson or Dalton -- my opponent has Roethlisberger so in case it's a shootout Dalton might counter a big day from Ben?

RB - start 2, Rawls is my RB1, for RB2 I have Bernard, L. Murray, CJ Anderson, Juwan Thompson, Abdullah

Thanks!

wilson

murray

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

One last one

Lacy or j hill this week..

Thanks!

lacy

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need to cut two guys out of this ragtag bunch to make room for a kicker and a defense. Which two would you cut out of: James Jones, Stevie Johnson, Ajayi, Boom Herron, Karlos Williams, and Antonio Andrews?

Hi Bloom,

With Gurley's decline and Luck out, I've been QB streaming which is fine, but concerned about RB heading into the playoffs.

The team with Adrian Peterson is in the basement, so I was thinking of the trade offer below. thoughts?

0.5 ppr/ 10 teams/ dynasty/ 20 man roster/ 10 starters: QB, 2 RB, 3WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex, 1 DEF, 1 PK

Adrian Peterson + Sammy Watkins for Moncrief + D. Adams, L. Murray and J. Langford (debating the last one).

QB: Luck, Fitz

RB: Gurley, Hill, Woodhead, Rawls and B. Powell

WR: ODB, Evans, A. Jeffrey, Jordy, Hopkins and Perriman

TE: Kelce and Eifert

do it if youre getting peterson/watkins yes easy


Hi Bloom, thanks again...the owner has countered with Murray + Langford for Adrian Peterson...thoughts?

sure

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

[Sigmund Bloom]

thanks for all the help throughout the year Sig!

Need a TE and a flex (WR/TE) out of a bunch of lousy options. The rest of the team is solid, but these two spots are desperation plays.

TEs get 1 ppr, WRs get 0.80

Quincy Enunwa

Seth Roberts (would, but against Denver?)

Blake Bell

Jared Cook

Eric Ebron (would like to start him but he's done poorly since week 7)

Heath Miller (if healthy, I'll probably start him)

Will Tye (currently in but don't like it)

Luke Willson (strongly considering)

willson and heath

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need your guidance again Bloom. I'm so fricken torn here!

Need 2RBs and 2WRs or I can go 1RB and 3WRs for a STD league:

Already starting Stew vs ATL. and Brown @ Cincy

Ivory vs Tenn.

DMC @ GB

Allen vs Sea. (No way I can start him right?)

Decker vs Tenn.

Evans vs NO

DT vs Oak.

Right now leaning:

Big Ben

Stew

A.Brown

Decker

Evans

DT

Watcha think?

Thanks!

ive got it ivory decker DT, but evans vs decker vs DT is TIGHT

 

[JasonRay23]

Hey Bloom got some rapid fire for you from a couple non PPR leagues.

Landry, Hurns or Moncreff, or snead?

Eifert or ASJ?

Blount or buck allen?

And the hardest one for me in my my most important league

Char west, ware, or buck allen?? Hate the chiefs split, but i also hate allens match up

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Which 2 would you start in 1/2pt ppr league. Need to knock off the #1 seed in the AFC. Buck Allen vs SEA, G.Tate vs STL, R.Mathews vs BUF?

Hi Sigmund,

What you do is greatly appreciated.

In a PPR league would you start Start Austin Seferian-Jenkins or bench him for Gronk with Will Tye on the bench as an inactive insurance?

ASJ w rapsheet's latest

 

[duece2626]

Jets D vs TEN or Det D vs STL

Eifert or Kelce PPR

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Sigmund,

What you do is greatly appreciated.

In a PPR league would you start Start Austin Seferian-Jenkins or bench him for Gronk with Will Tye on the bench as an inactive insurance?

Same question with a slightly different variant.

In a Standard league would you start Austin Seferian-Jenkins or bench him for Gronk with Ryan Griffin as an inactive insurance? (I could also bench Marvin Jones and start both Gronk and Seferian-Jenkins).

Much appreciate all of the insight that you provide, Sigmund.

ASJ w rapsheet's latest tweet

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, my first time doing this so just want to say thanks in advance.

Need 1 FLEX, PPR

Antonio Gates

CJ Spiller

Robert Woods

Woodhead

Currently starting Gates. Was already a little worried about the KC matchup but with the recent news of Rivers flu even more so now.

[Sigmund Bloom]

Stafford @ STL (banged up defense)

Tyrod Taylor @ PHI (bad defense, McCoy grudge...more runs than normal?)

QB scoring is 1 pt for every 25 yards passing and 10 yards rushing. 6 pts per TD. 5 pt bonus @ 300 yards. Bonuses for long TDs.

Debating on flex...

Shaun Draughn @ CLE (bad defense)

Delanie Walker @ NYJ (has been solid...ranks ahead of Adrian Peterson in average points per game. Peterson (17.4) and Walker (18.3). Antonio Brown averages 20.2...to put into perspective.

RB scoring is 1 pt for every 10 yards rushing or receiving. .5 PPR. 5 pt bonus @ 100 yards rushing and/or receiving. Bonuses for long TDs.

TE scoring is 1 pt for every 7 yards rushing or receiving. 1.0 PPR. 5 pt bonus @ 80 yards receiving and/or rushing. Bonuses for long TDs.

[Sigmund Bloom]

SIggy Smalls,

Need some clarity in two non-ppr flex spots, both games look to be close ones.

Yahoo Flex 1: Eddie Lacy, Randall Cobb, or Ryan Mathews?

ESPN Flex 2: Dez Bryant, Gurley, or Frank Gore?

And Bortles, Fitzy, or Mariota? Have Bortles slated to start - standard ESPN scoring. Thanks for the help.

Thanks Man!

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig -

0.5 PPR and have 2 questions:

1) I need a WR - Jeremy Maclin (vs San Diego) or Emmanual Sanders (vs Oakland)

2) I need a RB - Starks, Sims, CJ Anderson, Spiller, Hightower or Juwan Thompson. (I know - pathetic choices).

Thanks for the help

maclin

thompson

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

With Matt Schaub likely out and Jimmy Clausen looking like the starter for the Ravens does this make Javorius Allen an avoid? I know he is still likely to touch the ball early and often, but this makes me extremely nervous to play him over other decent options such as Danny Amendola (.5 ppr)... thoughts on the recent development and where how this impacts Allen?

i have amendola ahead. i lowered Allen's TD projection on the news

 

[Sigmund Bloom]
