Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Don't sleep on Bobby Rainey. He's my dark horse breakout candidate. Only reason I'm skeptical of McGehee is because we pulled the trigger on this trade before bringing him in. Which would lead me to believe we had a plan if Mcgahee failed his physical. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a shot Sunday with Mcgahee being insurance.

I haven't picked up Rainey yet but I'm going to at the computer waiting on Sunday just in case. I think Obi is locked in to keep his FB duties.
 
Well first of all Eddie Royal has to start until he stops scoring 5 touchdowns a game. But with Hoyer starting, and T-Rich leaving, I'd probably drop Gordon out of that group. Browns will be lucky to score a touchdown a game.

I seem to be the only idiot on the internet that thinks Flash Gordon is going to be a top 20 receiver this week. I think he is going to get a ton of targets. But, I also know that it is risky going against the 99% of prognosticators. I may just stand down and bench Gordon.

He's really our only big play threat right now, so it's hard to disagree with that assessment. The real question is whether or not our QB can get the throws to him. That's much less certain that Gordon's playmaking ability.
 
The offensive line is a mess, there will be less of a running game than before, and Brian Hoyer is throwing the ball. The Browns scored 6 points last week. You think they actually manage to get in the endzone, or 300 yards of offense this week? If not, then you can't start a player who plays on that offense.

Speaking for myself, I'm in a ppr league and figuring out a flex play. Your restrictions make sense in an 8 or 10 team league, but in a larger league you often get stuck playing adecent ppercentage play from a bad team at flex. I'm deciding between Lamar Miller of Miami playing a decent run defense, Bilal Powell playing a terrible Buffalo run defense, and Gordon.

You're not alone, Keys.

I have Josh Gordon in both of my leagues, but I just have better options right now until I see how well this offense looks when he returns. I also have Jordan Cameron, so I don't want to put all my eggs into one basket.

Right now I'm rocking Steve Smith in my flex.. But Gordon is right there as far as consideration goes.

I mean if those are the choices, yea Gordon makes sense. Lamar Miller certainly has not impressed early this season considering I saw him going as high as round 3 this year.

Just like Bilal Powell, he is a "starter" and gets a lot of dump off passes, but he splits plays on the field 50/50 with another back. I don't think Gordon getting a lot of plays called for him on a bad offense is too far removed from what those guys provide. Surprisingly, as I bash my flex players and cusp starters, I'm in first place in the RCF league.
 
I have Gordon, but it's non-ppr. I just don't like to go with anyone I'm uncertain about. Kind of concerned about how this effects Jordan Cameron too. Very few people are going to touch Ogbonnaya or Rainey, but ESPN is going to alert everyone to McGahee. If McGahee isn't good within a few weeks, the other guys may not even need a waiver claim if you even want to bother. There's also plenty of receivers and almost no RB's available in my league. Guys like McGahee may have some bye week value. If not, it's just the last spot on your roster. My starters are pretty much set, maybe swaps for matchups, but for the most part, the waiver wire is just a place to take players away from my opponents.
 
LeSean McCoy gave me a heart attack and then came back and delivered a 41-yard touchdown.

Whew.. To say the least.

I am going up against a McCoy owner ,Only reason I'm not mad is because I have Jamaal Charles on my team :thumbup:

That's always a positive twist.

Anyone smart enough to pick up KC this week and start them? Risky for sure, but they definitely dominated Vick and had a touchdown return by Eric Berry off of Vick.

I had them claimed and elected to go with the Browns instead, considering it's a safer bet. I'm pretty bummed.
 
Went against McCoy and Jackson tonight. Stronger players on dudes team. Get a bonus at 150 yards rushing. Think he had 148? I hope. And jackson had a quiet night. Rodgers and Seattle's defense will hopefully take care of things again for me this week.

He had 158 and a touchdown.
