Annual RCF Rate My Team/Who to Play Thread

[Jack Brickman]

I'd go with Cooks in a non-PPR format. The issue, naturally, is that rookie WRs tend to be pretty inconsistent from week to week. But you probably knew that when you drafted him.

Some of you guys asked me for the Draft picks in my league. I found the Draft sheet today cleaning at work. My team is much differentthan the night of the Draft

Does anyone play on DraftKings, FanDuel or any of those other daily sites?

So thankfully I was able to grab Larry Donnell again in the league I stupidly dropped him in last week. I also grabbed Ryan Matthews and immediately threw him onto the IR list (our league gives you one IR spot), then picked up whoever that dude is starting for the Panthers this week.

I have Gronk and Donnell, I'm being proposed Wayne for Donnell in a 1ppr. (We have 17 roster spots so waiver wire is basically useless.)

My WRs are Torrey Smith, larry Fitz, Josh Gordon, Malcom Floyd, Andre Holmes & Davante Adams.

Pretty sure I'm snap accepting this.

I started playing FanDuel about 3 weeks ago. Put in $10, up to $16. I am not playing crazy high bets. If you play in the $5 buy-in, 100 person league (believe almost all are 100 person leagues, standard) the top 50 people win $9.

Question about it?

In my $5 league this week, I have:

Hoyer - $5,800
Forte - $8,700
Bell - $8,600
Jeffery - $7,500
Maclin - $7,600
Crabtree - $6,700
Kelce - $5,300
Suisham - $4,800
CLE D - $4,800

I keep flipping between Maclin and K.Benjamin. I feel the Browns are going to come out flying off their bye week against TN so I have high hopes on Hoyer/DEF. I had $200 to spare. Doesn't mean shit I believe, but didn't find a need to upgrade any spot.

In the interest of making you feel bad, Torrey Smith is available on the waiver wire in my twelve team league.

Hey guys if you own forte or McCoy are you starting to panick? Their production has been lackluster at best. My other backs are strong but its crazy I have benched either McCoy or forte every week.

In the league I just traded Donnell, if I dropped Torrey he would be the best WR available, that's how slim this league is since we have extra bench spots.

he's available in a couple of my leagues as well, I still have him on most of my rosters. Him Fitz and Kendall Wright were my only bad picks so far this season over 5 rosters.

Mchugh:

I'm not worried about Shady, he's getting a lineman back this week and the guy who took the missing lineman's spot is sliding back to his natural position.

In terms for Forte, he's had one bad game? I think vs SF, correct me if I'm wrong.

Forte-

Week 1 - 16.9 against BUF
Week 2 - 3.6 against @SF
Week 3 - 7.6 against @NYJ
Week 4 - 17.1 against GB

He had to face 2 really tough run DEF away, where he got the shitty stats. In which he only ran the ball 12 carries and 13 carries. He was his normal self against BUF/GB w/ 17 carries and 23 carries. He has yet to find the end zone but who cares. He is GOING to get TD's this year and he will keep getting yards. Huge part of their game.

If McCoy can't destroy the Rams, then you have a RB that's in a pretty good slump.

Yeah that's true. I still am not sure which backs to go with. It would help if I had a flex in my league.

McCoy at st Louis
Bell at jax
Murray vs Houston
Forte vs Carolina.

I'm thinking about still going with Bell and McCoy based on the matchups but I hate leaving Murray on my bench

I would go Bell for sure and then choose between Murray/Forte.

Agree with this assessment. No reason to risk another poor Shady game when you've got two backs who have been consistently great and one who has went two for four. I'd probably lean on Murray because he has been the best back in the NFL this season so far, and also because Dallas is riding him hard right now.

Look at it this way...in standard scoring, Murray has yet to score below 17. Dude's a beast this season.

Yeah that was my feeling to. The only problem with bell is that he's only scored 1td and that was week 1. I'm torn bergen l between bell and Mccoy. I don't like fortes match up vs Carolina

Carolina's run defense has actually been pretty shitty this year so far. Le'Veon Bell tore them up for 147 yards (7.0 YPC) in week three, and Baltimore's group of no-namers abused them last week.
