I dont see how Hillis would help me this week though, he's going up against the Ravens. That might be worse than the Sjax vs SF matchup.

I'd take a stab at Spiller before Hillis, but I am surprised Hillis is available. Gailey is pretty low-key so if he says they are going with Spiller, you probably won't be in for any surprises. Problem with Spiller is no one really knows what he can offer. The handful of times he has started it has either been a terrible run match-up, or a pass heavy game to a deficit.

ZMANNH25rs · 11-29-2011, 03:14 PM

Barber has been sniping some TD's from Forte, but none the last couple of weeks, he seems to be seeing the field a little more and more each week.

I really wish one of the Chiefs RB's would have worked their way into a primary role but it's still all over the place...out of all of them I think McCluster has the only real potential...

Kinda sucks since them winning a game can help everyone else out below JMS.

My other money leagues counter this by doing a weekly highest points prize. Everyone ends up playing till the end. Works well.

That would be a cool idea for next year, though I do prefer the playoff system. We could charge per transaction and the winner that week gets the money payed in transactions for that week?

A friend was telling me that last in her league place has to pay double...that keeps the people on the bottom fighting. Thats kind of mean though.

hatchd · 11-29-2011, 08:00 PM

In my $50 league there's a $10 weekly prize for high score. Keeps everyone playing all year. This only really works with a higher dollar, bigger league. This wouldn't be so easy with a $20 league.

teamjordan23 · 11-29-2011, 08:03 PM

Thanks for the advice guys I think Im gonna pick up Spiller from the WW. The way I see it, Spiller>Hillis>Barber>KC RB's

Dalton looks good for playof weeks facing Arizona and STL but the next two weeks are Pit and Houston

Palmer has Mia GB Det and KC left

Moore has Oak Phi NE and Buf left

Freeman has Car Jac Dal Car left

Hasselbeck has Buf NO Ind Jac left

Should I even make a move? I am not a lock in the playoffs...fighiting for a spot still and its VERY tight so I need help now but also want favorable matchups for the playoff weeks (weeks 15 and 16)

5 options pick 2!

I feel like this post got lost in the shuffle....any advice? Got one vote for Palmer and Moore so far...anyone else care to chime in?

teamjordan23 · 11-30-2011, 06:46 AM

I have one too many QB's on my roster; Eli, Big Ben, and Tebow. Which one do I drop to pick up Hillis from the WW?

Josey Wales · 11-30-2011, 08:58 AM

I'd keep Eli and Tebow at this point. Tebow's last 3 games should be good match-ups.... if Eli goes down.

Pick my WRs for wk13... Welker is a start of course, but everyone else has bad match-ups. I don't want to rely on Grossman against Reavis. 12 team league, already in first, but I want to make sure I clinch the bye this week. WRs on WW are limited to Garcon & Burleson...

I like Daltons matchups, if you can add a 3rd QB.

I'd do Welker, Holmes, Gaffney at WR

Thanks, dropped Ben and picked up Hillis (even though he has tough matchups ahead). Hoping he gets back to somewhat of his old form.

Id go Welker, Holmes, and Gaffney like jms said. I kinda like Burleson too since it might be a shoot out with NO.

07BlueWRX · 11-30-2011, 01:30 PM

Who should I put in at flex. Santonio Holmes, Sjax, branch, or Andre Johnson. I'm leaning towards Branch.

Ha, you picked up my junk. I got frustrated with Hillis and needed to open the slot for another position.

In another league Maclin is out again, so I got Decker

I have Henderson but he is a rollercoaster and Denver has a favorable matchup, and somehow Tebow is getting it to Decker each game he's started.

mikercp · 11-30-2011, 03:06 PM

Doug Baldwin, Jason Avant or Steve Breaston ...

Pick 2..

Sidney Rice is out with concussion for SEA
Maclin is out for PHI
BOth play thursday...

Orton might play sunday for KC, but even with Palko Breaston gets second most targets behind Bowe...

Josey Wales · 11-30-2011, 03:16 PM

Riley Cooper is the answer. He is fixing my WR match-ups this week.

He was already swooped up... Avant had 14 targets last game...

parker/slc/gc8fan · 11-30-2011, 04:13 PM

Houston's D against Atl?

Or Green Bay vs Giants

Packer's should be due for a couple pic six's.

Bochet · 11-30-2011, 04:28 PM

I'm waiting for more news on AP to decide if I should start Gerhart or Spiller.

I'd rather choose two random OTters than any of those three. With a gun to my head, I would go Baldwin and Avant. Maybe even Obomanu.
Is this some 32 team fantasy league or something?

mikercp · 11-30-2011, 06:05 PM

LOL

Naw 12 team super competitive bunch. Free agents are slim pickings...

Harvin is currently starting for me, plus I have Avant and Breaston slotted in so far.

Only top 4 make it to playoffs..Im sittin at no.5 but I play #3 this week. Playoffs start Wk.15

schweezly · 12-01-2011, 12:16 PM

I'm praying LeSean plays tonight. I'm in 6th and playing the 4th place team. 3 of us are tied record wise for 4th and most likely only 1 will make it.

Bochet · 12-01-2011, 12:25 PM

If McCoy doesn't play tonight, I stand no chance of making the playoffs.

b1aze · 12-01-2011, 12:25 PM

He better! My only backup to him is Helu...
