Week 14 Questions for Bloom (1 Viewer)

[angman]

Sig, 

Assuming Micheal Thomas is inactive or limited at best, would you roll with Willie Snead with confidence over Brandon Marshall? 

Also with weather potentially being an issue in Cleveland, who do you start between eifert or brate? 

Thanks and good luck this week! 

 

[Stingdiddy]

Brady or Stafford? Standard scoring. Thanks.

 

[cpdavis90]

Hi Bloom,

Thanks for doing this. 

Pick 1 for RB2, PPR: Coleman, Booker, Sims

Thanks!

 

[farney]

Half PPR league, 2 questions:

1) Flex - Beasley or Garcon?

2) TE - Gates or Ertz

thanks

 

[Slugg]

1/2ppr 

Sammy Watkins or Reddick

 

[BoltBacker22]

PPR / 0.25 per rush / 3 point bonus at 100 rushing or receiving

pick 2

Doug Martin, Isaiah Crowell, Terrele Pryor, Hightower

Thanks

 

[Cincy Sufferer]

Need 2 between Baldwin, Gabriel, and Crowder in PP2R.  Opponent had Tyreke Hill and I had Spencer Ware, so I'm in a hole already. Worried about weather in Green Bay for Baldwin. 

 

[Giddyup5]

Thanks in advance

Do I play Julio or 1 of Snead/Hightower/Ryan Matthews at flex?

Standard scoring 

Eli, Rawls, Ingram, Cooper (laid a dud Thursday night), Hilton, Ertz, Flex, Denver, Tucker

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

In a 0.5 PPR league I need to pick 1 WR and 1 FLEX.

Cobb, Hightower, Corey Coleman, Malcolm Mitchell, Rishard Matthews, or Ladarius Green?

Thanks!

mitchell and cobb

 

[Mene]

Bloom, going to tap your knowledge once again.

PPR league, 3 point bonus for 100+ rushing or receiving.

Watkings, Ingram, Hightower, or Martin.

I am down 40 already, he had L.Murray and Kelce, and he still has a ton of firepower, so I need home runs.

Thanks a ton Bloom!

 

[DarkKnightsGuru]

Ok bloom need major help here.. We start 1 QB 2 rbs 3 wr 1 te and 1 kicker.. Now we have 1 flex position that we could use on a rb wr and or a te as well for a total of 10 starting offensive players.. R league is 1 point per reception Tds r ten points and we get 1 point for every ten yards total.. Tightends get bonuses at 75 yards rec wr get it at 100 receiving and rb at 100 rushing... My QB is Rivers then for rbs I have to choose btwn Mark Ingram vs Tb, Rob Kelley vs Phi, Thomas Rawls vs Gb and Jonathan Stewart vs Sd.. Wr I have to choose from Emanuel Sanders vs Ten, Cooks vs Tb, Malcom Mitchell vs Bal, Tyrell Williams vs Car , Ted Ginn vs SD and Te Ebron vs Chi, Olsen vs Sd and Ladarious Green vs Buf.. As you see tuff choices.. So I need you to pick 2 rb 3 wr and 1 te n then 1 flex play

Start qb, 2rb, 2 wr, te, flex, def, k, 0.5ppr

 bye this week so trying to get team ready for next week.

Projected Week 15 starters:

Cousins

Booker, Coleman

Julio, Evans, crabtree (flex)

Reed

Seattle

Bench: Wallace, Cobb, gurley (no way I start gurley v Seattle) , jaquizz, Winston, d Lewis, Ellington

My rb are atrocious, I am considering dropping Randell Cobb (or more) to add temporary roster space for this weekend to allow for stashing lotto ticket RBs.  Question is do you think this is best strategy for my team?

 Cobb has a decent playoff schedule but is my wr5.  Would like to keep Winston for his favorable week 16 matchup v saints

 Stash options available that I see as potential 15 touch players if starter gets hurt:

Perkins, toussaint, Farrow, blue, Langford, Damien Williams, vereen, Robert turbin, James White, dewayne Washington, troymaine pope(all other cuffs with Some semblance of potential are already rostered)

id hold cobb

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Sig,

1. PPR Flex: L Green, B. Marshall, or D Lewis

2. PPR with 100+ bonus, pick a WR: Moncrief, Watkins, or Landry

Thanks, good luck all in playoffs!

moncrief

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Mr Bloom

Standard scoring. Already starting Brown and Evans (obviously) but having a heck of a time with the others. Please help me decide from the following ragtag bunch, I need 2 from these guys:

Ingram (also have Hightower if Ingram doesn'tplay) - sick of the weekly variance and usage but he's capable of good things

Kelley - good matchup??

Moncrief - TD streak has to end and his yardage is poor without them

M.Mitchell - too risky? Feels it but he appears to be ascending and the matchup for this week at least is quite good

T.Gabriel - not a front-runner but Atalanta's passing options dwindling gives me pause

Also at DEF, Falcons or Bills or I could pick up Colts or Chargers?

Thanks so much, peace

kelley and mitchell (wont talk you out of gabriel)

ATL D

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Pick two in full PPR:

Lamar Miller, Theo Riddick, Steve Smith

Pick one in full PPR:

Rashad Jennings, Terrence West, Justin Forsett, Tevin Coleman

Thanks!

sit miller

play coleman

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

6td, bonuses for big yardage

Rivers at Car

or

Cousins at Phi

Does any universe exist where you might sit Julio for Crowell or DJax?

cousins. yes this one, get djax in

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

1.0 PPR League

Down 15 in a two-week Playoff game (thanks Kaep); and I need 1 RB and 1 Flex from this motley crew. 

Hyde (SF) vs JETS

Booker (DEN) @ Ten

Crabtree (OAK) @ KC

M. Thomas (NO) @ TB

D. Thomas (DEN) @ Ten

Shepard (NYG), Mitchell (NE), Jones (DET), Inman (SD) and Boyd (CIN) are all available on waivers. 

hyde and mitchell sorry i missed ya

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

0.5 PPR 6pt ALL TD

Luck/Winston (My first instinct was Winston until I read you expect a TB conservative game AND ALL cheat sheets show Luck as a top 2 QB this week)

WR 2----M Mitchell, T Pryor or J Landry (First instinct was Pryor but RG3 starting scares me so I'm leaning towards Mitchell)

Thanks in advance

luck

mitchell

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Siggy Smalls! Vamanos cabron!

Same question as last week....standard league Rob kelley, Moncrief or Watkins.

Muchisimo gracias!!

[Sigmund Bloom]

Full PPR

Please pick two RB's:  Riddick, Lewis, McKinnon

Please pick one flex:  M Mitchell, Landry, Ty Williams, Ladarius Green

Thanks Mr. Bloom!

sit mckinnon

[Sigmund Bloom]

Same dilema as last week and you nailed it...Thanks Sig!!!

Crabtree or Ingram?(I have Mitchell too)

10 yds recieving...10 yds rushing...PPR

Crabtree lines up against Peters alot and laid a dud last game...3 fantasy points earlier this season against KC or this would be easy for me.

Love to here your thoughts on this...Thanks again Sig!!!

sorry i missed ya had crab ahead

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig -- probably same questions as last week -- non PPR

1) need one flex from : Smiff Sr vs Patsies; Moncrief vs HOU; D. Lewis vs Ravens; Sims vs NO  (D. Lewis didn't work out last week)

2) need a defense: Detroit vs. Bears; Chargers at Panthers; Miami vs AZ

This is a "plan ahead" question for a team that has a bye this week and looking to make moves now for next week.

I currently have questions at two positions -- QB and TE: -- for week 15:

* QB: E. Manning (DET) and M. Stafford (@NYG)

* TE: J. Reed (CAR) -- injury.

There are two guys I'm considering picking up for both positional needs: C. Kaepernick (@ATL) and V. McDonald (@ATL). Good matchups here and indoors.

The question is this: Would you drop any of the following players to pick up Kaepernick and/or McDonald?

* D. Booker: Has horrible matchups vs NE and @KC. Not sure I'd even use him and Forsett is lurking. Other RBs on my roster are L. Murray, M. Ingram, T. Hightower, K. Dixon, D. Lewis.

* D. Moncrief: Tough matchup @MN next week but then has a good matchup @OAK. His TDs are bound to dry up. Other WRs on my roster are J. Jones, T. Pryor, S. Smith, M. Mitchell.

* M. Mitchell: Faces Denver next week. Bad. Then faces NYJ which could work if need be.

* M. Stafford: Could drop Stafford for Kaep since Stafford has what looks to be a tough matchup @NYG. Eli at home against DET could be the play in week 15 over Kaep anyway. Stafford's matchup @DAL could be solid though so he could be worth keeping.

Stick with what I have for now and wait till next week?

Or drop one of the above in bold for either Kaep or McDonald?

Thanks.

booker for vance

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

PPR league.

Need two:

* T. Williams @CAR -- Is practicing this week. Great matchup, but of course, he has an injury issue.

* D. Jackson @PHI -- Boom or bust, but PHI is giving up big plays.

* S. Smith @NE -- Flacco should have to throw to keep up. Weather could be a factor Monday night.

Note: I need upside after S. Ware laid an egg and my opponent's roster is littered with NO and TB players.

Which two?

Thanks

sit smiff

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

D question.

Need one.

* WASH @PHI -- Wash not a great D, but PHI may be mailing it in and Wentz has been horrible.

* SD @CAR -- CAR has been putrid on offense but fear this could be a get well game with SD travelling east.

* MIA vs AZ -- Mia D just got slaughtered by Flacco, but Miami at home and AZ travelling east. Could be rainy and windy Sunday.

Which D?

Thanks

WAS

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

PPR league.

Need one RB:

* J. Howard @DET -- Will get the touches but DET could slow it down.

or

* J. Hill @CLE -- Great matchup. Could be snowy and windy.

Which?

Thanks

hill

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Jeffery worth a pickup?

Roster:

Luck, Mariota

McCoy, Gurley, Coleman, Lewis, Henry, Gilleslie, and Dixon

Edelman, Diggs, Moncrief, D. Jackson, T. Hill

Eifert

IDPs and a kicker . 

jeffery over mariota

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, standard scoring. Got Week 14 off (thanks to you and your team) so looking ahead to Week 15:

1. Pick one QB, Brees @ Cardinals, Stafford @ Giants or I can pick up T-Mobile vs Browns in week 15
   
2. Hold Ebron or drop for Ertz, Vernon Davis, Hunter Henry, Gates or Fiedorowicz in week 15?
   
3. Pick three in week 15 - Blount @ Denver, Booker v Pats, TY Hilton @ Vikings and Michael Thomas @ Cardinals
   

Thanks as always

Hi Bloom,

Standard league, standard scoring.  I need 3 of the following for my RB2/3 & Flex:

Gurley - #1 pick has been killing me all year. Do I give up on him now?

Ingram - Puts up monster numbers, then a dud. What will happen this week?

Forte - Only bright spot on a bad team. Will they contIniesta to feed him. Good match up this week.

Jennings - Sunday Night Football against Dallas.  Had a few good games this year on my bench

Shepard - Quietly having a decent year on my bench. Thinking of possibly inserting if I bench Gurley.

Thank you as always......

Hey Bloom!

.5 point ppr.  I need to pick 3 from Gabriel, Hilton, Tyrell Williams and Baldwin.  Are you concerned with the snow for Baldwin? Thanks!

 

[swingerd]

Hi Sig - PPR league. Please pick two for flex - thank you!

Jordan Howard, Michael Thomas, Tyrell Williams, Frank Gore, Mark Ingram, Will Fuller

 

[da_budman]

First week of the playoffs....according to the league scoring I am a 10 point underdog.....  Crabtree  already got me a 2 point dud game so Im an even more dog than I was before....here is the question:  My normal lineup includes BOTH Denver WRs and also Booker......Im afraid that no matter how the tenn game goes having all 3  will be a detriment   if things go the way I think.....  so the question is do I shake up the variance  in hopes for the best?  I have  Allen Robinson...a dud most of the year vs Minnesotta ...not a good matchup at all and dwayne allen  who I could put in and hope for double points (have luck)  .... so comes down to booker thomas sanders.....   Allen and Robinson.... pick 3. 

 

[andyk803]

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

Sorta off topic, more IDP/draft question for Cecil and his main man Alfred Williams to speak of on a future draft pod about the Colorado Buffalo secondary and what sort of draft prospects they might have and where they might go in the upcoming draft.

The Buffs came out of nowhere this year and the secondary was phenomenal, especially CB Chidobe Awuzie and SS Tedric Thompson.  I was curious what Cecil has to say about their NFL potential and where they might go in the draft.

BTW, have to acknowledge the cool shoutout you shot my way after the Cavs broke the curse. 

thumbup, will pass this on

 

[Jeremy]

Non ppr:

Michael Thomas (if active) or Malcolm Mitchel. 

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Choose 3: 0.5 ppr:

Need a flex from Ajayi, Moncrief, Taylor Gabriel and Davante Adams.

Originally planned to start Ajayi but after Ware laid and egg last night I might need to take more risk with Gabriel, Adams or Moncrief to make up the difference. 

 As always, thanks for your time.

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig-
