The Bucs play Detroit next Sunday so I'd be careful about Martin. Some good matchups after that though.just_want_2_win said:
Once Wayne hangs em' up and Nicks is cut, then Moncrief will be fantasy relevant on a more consistent basis. It may not even matter about Nicks, but Wayne would need to retire for Moncrief to matter.
Wha...huh...NO!
Seems like the very definition of chasing points. But if you're desperate for a QB, you probably don't have a lot of choices.
Wayne's a free agent after the season. I don't think it's a lock they keep him around. I'd let Nicks and Wayne walk and see what I can find in the draft. Those two's contracts free up some serious $
If I had to guess, I'd say the Colts honor Wayne's contribution by giving him a reasonable one-year offer, with perhaps the understanding that this will be it for him. Also perhaps with the understanding that his playing time may be lessened to let Moncrief develop further.
From the segments of the game I saw, he looked better than he has in the recent past, which obviously isn't saying much. It also appeared that TB's line was getting more push and opening better holes than it has in the past. If he's on your WW he might be worth a what-the-heck pickup if you have the space, but I doubt I would be confident in starting him in the playoffs outside of desperation.
I thought he looked good in the first half. He was running harder and making some people miss. Thought his play tailed off as the game went on but that could also be a result of the Bucs' poor offensive line getting worn down and the Bengals' D playing better against the run.
I did the exact same thing. But I'm not sure I'm buying. Pats very much schemed to take Cobb/Nelson out of the game (certainly didn't hurt that they had Revis and Browner to do it). Do you really think Atlanta or TB are going to be able to do the same thing the next couple weeks?
I hear ya there.
But he put up 13 points in PPR yesterday with Williams. If Williams doesn't go, that should put Stewart in position to get 15-20 touches against the league's 31st-ranked defense. On paper, it does make him an appealing reach.
I'm gonna drop Wayne this week. I'm suddenly needing some upside at WR and Wayne just isn't getting it done. Depending on how Percy looks tonight with Smith I'll either put Adams first on my FAAB list or second behind Harvin.

Most likely not. You'd basically have to ride that same mentality where you hope Cobb/Nelson get injured (which is messed up imo), or hope he booms. This is week 14, and the likelihood of there being much better options available are slim to none. Dad always said beggars can't be choosers.zftcg said:
I am debating Manziel, Orton or Hill. The Redskins are like the Pats a few years ago, historically bad secondary, but they stop the run. Hill is looking better and better.
Out of the 5 guys you listed, I bet 2 guys have good/decent games and 3 have terrible games. If you want to get cute and try to predict which, then have fun. I wouldn't try to get cute and I'd just play Matt Ryan if it were me and my season was on the line.
I considered Woods last week, but decided Hawkins was a safer bet, which ended up costing me my match-up. Now, with the uncertainty in Cleveland, I'm thinking of going back to RW. I think the big question is Watkins. Yes, he had Haden last week, but he's been trending down, and may have just hit the rookie wall. Also, he likely gets Talib this week.Hoot McGoot said:
Yeah I don't think you can start Ryan with extreme confidence this week due to the issues you listed. But the volume potential is very high and I honestly can't see any way the Packers' secondary handles Julio. I think he'll destroy them. I wouldn't be surprised to see Ryan put up 300 with 2-3 TDs and the Falcons still get blown out.
I'm sort of in your same spot with one team (Mett is backup). I see 225-1-2 for Ryan outside; there will be some garbage time points maybe but ATL is going to get blitzkrieged.
