So this thread can be for getting advice on who to play each week. Probably wont get much traffic but what the hell, maybe some people will use it.

For myself im trying to decide between running back danny woodhead (baltimore going against @cincinnatti), or tight end Zach Ertz (philadelphia going against @washington), or wide receiver Brandon Marshall (ny giants going against @dallas)
 
I was just about to start a fantasy football thread because I have my draft later today and I could use some advice! I didn't play last season and oh how things change.

Who should I avoid?
Who should I grab?

I'm drafting #5 so I'm hoping to grab Julio Jones or the like in the 1st round

If you can grab julio at 5 then do it. Quite a steal that would be.

How has Christian Mccaffrey looked?

pretty good i think but i think he will be splitting carries. Plus the qb likes to run. I try to avoid guys that split carries until late in the draft.

If you start Ertz or Woodhead over BMarsh you deserve to lose.

Well I kinda decided Marshall would totally depend on whether Beckham plays.
I was thinking he will play. Have you heard anything?

If Beckham plays then Marshall is their third receiver. That's no bueno
 
I missed the draft in our JazzFanz league. Got Kareem Hunt. Started him last night. Good move by me.

Marshall is a huge redzone threat and it's a primetime game. It's your team but this isn't even close imo.

Funny cause the projections have him getting the least points of the three.

I will definitely play him if O'Dell is out though.

Hill was projected to get 13 pts last night, Hunt was projected to get 12....

Ok.
I was just posting the projections. They are still what they are.
 
Ended up drafting #8 and took LeVeon Bell. I feel surprisingly good about my draft even though yahoo gave me a 'C' which was the lowest draft grade out of the 12 in the league... It was an offline draft at a restaurant so I couldn't keep up as well with who was still available.

It criticized me about drafting Derek Carr in the 3rd round (league is slightly overweight passing yards and the QBs were flying off shelf!)

gave me props for nabbing Christian McCaffrey in the 4th round and Alfred Morris in like the 14th round

starting:

Derek Carr
Golden Tate
LeVeon Bell
Jason Witten
Christian McCaffrey
Brandin Cooks
Dan Bailey

Def: Joey Bosa
Jason Pierre-Paul
Ha ha Clinton Dix
Eric Weddle

Bench:
Bilal Powell
Chris Hogan
Philip Rivers
Mike Wallace
Alfred Morris


We'll see, don't expect to win but know I won't get last!
 
My bad I took Carr in the 2nd round that's what the grading jumped me for

but yea i was pretty excited about nabbing Bell, thanks dude [MENTION=2411]tfivas[/MENTION] Bunch of QBs were taken first along with David Johnson, Antonio Brown, Devonta Freeman,

Its a long running league; some experts some not so much, my first year, one dude died another is boycotting NFL!

I really like your team. Bell went 1st in my league. I think the raiders offense will be very good. Carr, lynch, and amari cooper is quite a big three.
Tate is the #1 guy on his team (i also have tate btw), witten is a stud and might go down as the best tight end #'s wise of all time, cooks will be huge once him and brady get the chemistry going, im not real high on mccaffrey but he went earlier in my draft than when you took him so i think you got good value.
I really like bilal powell too. I took him in my draft (probably to early) and think he will have a breakout year.

My point was that picking your roster based off projections is a bad idea.

Im not. I was just mentioning the projections cause you were saying how its not even close and marshall is by far the best option and how i deserve to lose if i choose anyone other than marshall. I think philly vs washington could be a shootout so i think ertz will get lots of targets. I dont really like woodhead (i got him in like the 13th round or something.... he fell farther than anyone in our draft), and i think that marshall will be the 3rd most targeted wide receiver for the giants and zeke might play for dallas and they might pound the rock to him and keep possession.
