You always start Megatron.I too blame Megatron. Read after the game that his coaches used him as a decoy on purpose and that he wasn't part of the game plan. Fucking annoying. Between that and Decker getting the start (rendering Jeremy Kerley useless), I managed to turn a possible win (would have started Mike Evans > Megatron and obviously Decker > Kerley) into quite a convincing loss.
That was my mentality but I was misled about how unhealthy he was. Not that the Lions coaching staff should give a fuck about fantasy players, I'd have done the same thing if I were them.You always start Megatron.

This post was fine til you mentioned Lynch, sorry to call you out. I sure hope Charles sucks again tonight though!Always starting McCoy sure hasn't worked very well for me so far, not that I have any real alternatives with the injuries I suffered to Ingram/Woodhead anyway.
See also: every elite RB not named DeMarco Murray, and kinda Lynch/Forte but they've merely been passable
lynch has been the 2nd best back in fantasy football. with the first being murray obviously. the only 1st round running backs that have been playing well are forte (eh) and lynch.This post was fine til you mentioned Lynch, sorry to call you out. I sure hope Charles sucks again tonight though!
Is it blasphemous to say going for an elite RB in the first round is a crapshoot? It seems pretty rare that it actually works out...
I've been rolling along pretty well taking Brees and Graham in rounds 1 and 2, then rounds 3, 4, and 6 were Alfred Morris, Giovani Bernard, and Rashad Jennings, all three of whom have produced more than most of the "elite" RBs.
Look on the bright side: Megatron didn't suffer a setback with the Lions coaching mindfucking fantasy owners and the JetsThat was my mentality but I was misled about how unhealthy he was.

Bell was falling to the 3rd+ round, though, due to fears about Blount eating into his workload (plus a bit of him getting busted for pot). Apparently those fears were unfounded, though, or the coaching staff realized that Bell >> Blount.Le'Veon Bell has been putting up pretty consistent numbers from week to week as well, and he has shown to be pretty matchup proof. McCoy's numbers are an absolute shock to me to be honest. I've noticed an unusual number of studs struggling this year, like Megatron and BMarshall.
I own Bell in all my leagues. Big fan of his pass catching abilities, he was way too underrated going into drafts.Le'Veon Bell has been putting up pretty consistent numbers from week to week as well, and he has shown to be pretty matchup proof.

in that situation, i sit my defense. sure you can say you want to get the extra points for tiebreakers and shit, but i don't think it's worth risking a win.entering monday night, i was up by 1 point.. I had patriots defense left and my opponent had nobody left. I was confident in my win.. THEN MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL HAPPENED.
PS. he had started falcons d for -4 points
pss. apparently when the chiefs score a TD, the points are subtracted from new england defnse (makes no sense), i found out the hard way
psss. FML
DID YOU USE ME AS A REFERRALSo fanduel was pretty fun, checked it out after reading what Aldaron said about it. I just played in the shitty 1 and 2 dollar leagues to test the waters and I did a lot better than I thought I would. I could have gotten a pretty big cash out if Julian Edelman didn't do so bad =/
You think someone is going to give you Antonio Brown AND an RB2 for Julius Thomas? Hahahahahahahahahahahathe guy also has Antonio Brown, so if he rejects CJ, maybe i can get AB + an RB2 or something?
Why would he want to trade for Julius Thomas if he already has Greg Olsen as his TE?i have Julius and Kelce, and since Kelce is starting to bust out, i'm thinking about trying to deal JT for an RB1 or WR1 (as suggested to me earlier in the season). with Calvin Johnson's fairly disappointing start, would i be crazy to propose a 1|1 trade for him? guy who owns him has Olsen starting.
obviously the other option is to flex Kelce, which i'm not opposed to, but my starting WR are Brandon Marshall/Keenan Allen/Colston, and i think another top tier WR could really help out. the guy also has Antonio Brown, so if he rejects CJ, maybe i can get AB + an RB2 or something? or maybe Kelvin + Gio for JT + FJax or something ? am i out of my mind?
also i'm thinking about starting Jeremy Hill over FJax this week/
More importantly what do you want for Maclin :>Why would he want to trade for Julius Thomas if he already has Greg Olsen as his TE?
