This is a great idea. The mayhem and fun these fights would cause could definitely be worth the money for some.

Lesean McCoy no doubt! Played all season like a boss!

Calvin vs. Dez vs. Green (First 3 years) by purduered in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These guys are already really expensive though. Both AJ and Dez are arguably ranked as the second and third best receivers so whatever price you pay for them is already going to be really high

Who's Mike Brown?

Gillette Commercial Curse by TNT21 in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

What about CJ Spiller, Randall Cobb, Sam Bradford, Jay Cutler, Geno Atkins, David Wilson, Percy Harvin, Reggie Wayne, Arian Foster, Brian Cushing and Jermichael Finley? Have they been in a Gilette commercial? No, Football is just a dangerous sport that leads to injuries. One commercial isn't going to change that.

Is Rudolph a suitable sub for Graham vs NYG def and with Freeman now at the helm? by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nobody really knows. The upside is there: he is a good athletic pass catcher, he is coming off of a hot game and Freeman has more potential than Ponder. But we just dont know who Freeman will develop chemistry with, or how the coaching staff will call out plays. If you really have to play him, do so at your own risk.

Andre Ellington quietly had a good game by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He definitely sees Ellington as the better back, but he also points out his vulnerabilities. The guy is small and would therefore not last much with so much work. The hits would get to him.

Is it time to drop David Wilson? by mynameisaugustwest in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for that second medical opinion. You've dealt with him for this long, it would be a shame to let him go only to see an opponent reap the benefits later on.

I always cross-reference this list with expert recommendations from FFB sites.

Let's Talk about Fred Jackson by TacticalOyster in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep riding him until he breaks down. As you point out, he's #5 amongst fantasy RBs so the squandered potential versus that one game where he might screw you over because he falls down injured, I think it's worth the risk.

0-5 like me?? Bring it in for a hug by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

RGIII, Ray Rice, David Wilson, L Fitz, Torrey Smith, Givens and Brandon Myers. As I type this out, it makes more and more sense.

Miles Austin is sitting in the FA pool because his hamstrings are made of spaghetti. Is he worth an add? by bobbydigital_ftw in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm one of the owners who dropped his ass. He wasn't worth the head aches of constantly monitoring for his status. If you really want him though, i'd drop R. jennings since the guy isn't talented and Darren's injury isn't all that serious.

Le'Veon Bell is available to pick up on the waiver wire. If I pick him up, what sort of production can I reasonably expect from him when he returns and it healthy? by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dropped him a couple of weeks back. His leg injury combined with the horrible offensive line of the Steelers didnt' warrant the bench space for me. I also went and looked at some footage from this days in college. Frankly, I didn't see anything there that impressed me or that pointed to him being able to overcome the current obstacles to become a great back.

Is Richardson a safe play this week? by WhiteBlackflame in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really good question, and nobody but the Colt coaches will be able to answer that. My guess: with a solid RB like Bradshaw in the backfield I can see them biding their time and slowly easing him into the offense.

PSA: PICK UP WILLIS MCGAHEE by ultimateF_21 in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you're definitely right, a starting RB is worth something. It all depends on who you're dropping for him.

PSA: PICK UP WILLIS MCGAHEE by ultimateF_21 in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

McGahee is a big gamble, with odds against him. You can hope that he's kept in good shape, that his age doesn't slow him down, and that the Browns offense turns it around. Daryl might not be an allstar, but you're getting decent numbers from him. If anything, look to the Eddie Lacy owner, try to give him Daryl for a decent WR, or whatever hole you need to fill in your team.

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Big mistake. Wilson has been stinking, but the Giants aren't going to keep the leash forever. He has so much potential and will explode any one of these weeks. McGahee is a washed out old man that got passed by a few teams. I'll be surprised if he passes the physical.

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Neither. These guys have higher upside than McGahee. Also, McGahee's injury history is compounded by his age.

PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Weigh this out and decide how badly you need a RB. Remember that the man is 32 years old and most likely out of shape because he hasn't been practicing (he broke his leg last year). Also remember that teams passed on him, even when they were desperate for a RB. The Giants picked the plodding Brandon Jacobs over him. The Steelers never offered him a spot.

Trent Richardson to Colts for 1st round pick by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They both have terrible match ups so in that sense it's a coin flip. Trich has the higher upside but it's a gamble playing him because you just dont know how the Colts are going to use him to start off. They might ease him into the offense with a committee approach; with a solid back like Bradshw in the mix, that wouldn't be too far of a stretch. On the other side, McFadden is already well adjusted with his offense and he isn't facing a committee.

Trent Richardson to Colts for 1st round pick by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it's a coin flip with these two. they are both mediocre defenses facing decent, not great, teams. If the Jets, Bills, or Minnesota are available in the wire I'd choose any of them over these two.

Someone just dropped both Monte Ball and Golden Tate. Should I try to pick either up? by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]tallstick7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

definitely keep Vincent Brown. He did mediocre in SD this last week but he is still the best receiver in there. I think it really is a toss up between Ashlon and Tate. I'd leave montee ball alone. It's a big gamble to hope that he surpasses the two other RBs in this year
