@DireWolfM14. Okay, I will observe for 2 more weeks before looking for a trade. However, I might rest Najee Harris and I might play Antonio Brown and Corey Davis. They appear to collect more points than ESPN projected because of the performances of Tom Brady and Zach Wilson.

Yeah week to week these guys have good games and bad games.  No need to scramble week one.  A quarter of the season (4 games) is what I use as a rule of thumb to know how a player will probably score through the season.  And everyone always has guys on the bench that score more than their starters in an 8 team league.  Too many good players for them to be all rostered in the starting lineup.  I have multie wr that scored more than Jefferson who disappointed.  Just the way it is.

If we add the points from your starters and your bench you have outscored 3 teams and that is with two players scoring zero due to injuries, so you are not doing as bad as you may think, besides Antonio Brown looked great, he was being drafted that low as many thought he was going to be the WR3 on the depth chart of the Bucs, but I saw signs of prime AB and if that is the case I would personally take him over Evans and Godwin, plus you have Brady, while I am new to FF I have heard many stories back in the day of Brady and Moss helping players win their leagues on 2007 when they went undefeated during the regular season, so if you are lucky you could get to see something similar happen right now.

My wide receivers and running backs on the bench have collected more points than the players who were playing hehe. It also appears that I have made a mistake. I have drafted lower ranked players without superstars the team requires to bring more points.

How much is a good average no. points per week?

Don't despair, there're fluctuations from week to week.  Also keep a look out on the waiver wire, you may find a few gems to fill in your weak positions.  It's hard to determine this early in the season, so be very critical of your decision before you trade.  Make sure to consider the opponents and how they performed.  Ask yourself, was it a fluke that X player performed so badly, and X performed so well.  What could possibly go wrong?  As the season progresses and you have a larger pool of data to review, the decisions to trade up become easier.

What a game between NO and GB.


Oh yeah, I guess I should have kept Winston instead of chickening out and grabbing Cousins! Cheesy

I was getting depressed starting out Sunday with -3 points on the board, but am now in contention, provided a couple significant things go my way tomorrow night.

What a game between NO and GB. Glad I caught that one on TV. Rogers' heart just ain't in it, and who can blame him. He would've rather been host of Jeopardy this year, after all.

And glad that Mahomes + Hill delivered the Patrick Price for my otherwise lackluster ass.

And Mahoney and hill are killing me now lol.  They can score points in seconds.  Blinked and I'm down in fantasy.  Going to be hard to win against that combo with more time to go.  2-3 minutes and 2 tds with hill getting a 75 yard td.  Crazy

I have hill against me in another league and that 75 yarder boned me and then Melvin gordon popped one off and saved me!

Funny thing is Yahoo made fun of me for drafting Melvin soo early!



Me and South Park have quite the duel so far. We each have one player remaining, he has Montgomery and i have Allen Robinson II. It is up to the Rams defense to decide who will win. I'm secretly hoping Andy Dalton is benched and Fields lets it fly to Mooney and Robinson in the second half, hoping for a comeback or somethin'.

...so much takes to talk about

- Browns and Baker choking in 4th.
- News flash, Giants suck!
- Urban Meyer doesn't know what's he is doing, not sure how long is he going to last in the NFL. Dude, you can't have Hyde have more carries than J. Robinson...wtf?
- Rookie starting QBs lost their opening games.
- Waddle, D. Smith, and Ja'Marr Chase each with a TD.



Yup, giants still Suck, Goff doesn't and Houston is not the train wreck all the retard pundits said they were.

Oh and Greenbay SUCKS, those fuckers cost me but I shall persevere. Cheesy





I'm enjoying watching you guys duke it out! Smiley

Just a heads up on Swift, Willaims will be starting and carrying the load today.
I was not planning on starting the dude at all as he is playing against a healthy SF defense, and even if the game has not finished he is giving me more points than what Zeke gave during the full game against TB, and BTW what’s up with the SF defense? They were scoring 16 points at halftime and are at 13 right now, they are really playing against me at the moment, I just hope Detroit can score some more TDs so their score drops a little bit.

And BTW the wheelz team looks scary as hell.

My squad is looking tight!.  What scares me is with kc down Mahomet should be bombing away in the second half.  He can wreck a fantasy game real quick lol.  So far giants game is a snoozer on offense.  D is looking tight.  Eagles looked real good but a ton of teams will against the falcons this year.  Giants need to win this one

Chubb's doing his thing.... I still have hope.

Danm, now the Niners seem to be doing everything they can to lose this game after scoring 41 points.  WTF!  Picking up Goff doesn't seem so crazy now.

Let's be fair, Lions cashed out all their luck on those two 2-pointers and that onside kick.

I think I'll bench my whole team against him and take the loss so I don't get any injuries that week! Cheesy

Hmmm... maybe I should have put Deebo in flex. Oh well.

Yeah, he's had a great game.  I'm hoping my gamble on Pat's D against Miami was a good call, my other option was Pittsburg, and they held my QB and one of my receivers to a total of 24 points.

NFL experts, do RB1 players always play for the whole game or does the coach let the RB2 have some time on the field also?

A few downs but not many usually, maybe up to 25% -- unless they are underplaying the RB1 after a minor injury.

I have a problem. Austin Ekeler is questionable according to ESPN and all of my replacements on the bench are only RB2. Trey Sermon, Javonte Williams and Jamaal Williams. Should I trust the projections and choose Javonte Williams as replacement?

In my experience Q almost always means "they're fine." This is not true 100% of the time but if they have projected points, there's a very high chance they're playing.
