Haha!

Matthew Berry helped me draft Cooks and Cordarelle Patterson and they both had very good games today...




But I didn't start either...

Jordan Reed screwed me with his stupid hamstring. But so far Harvin and Cooks look like low-end WR1's, Forte looked good, Kapernick could've finished stronger but he played well enough. Should've started Jake Locker.

First orders of bidness: Send Miles Austin packing (3 targets? For a WR2 on an nfl team?).

Reed was dirt-cheap in most drafts so I have him in a few of my leagues. Bunch of upside, but I personally don't trust RG3.

Biggest fantasy rule in my book: Don't overreact to week 1.

Well I'm not going to give up on Reed or anything, he left early with a hammy injury, but if Ladarius Green has a big game, Reed might just be sitting even if he's healthy.

[RebusRankin]

I picked up Kelce and played him instead of Reed. Yay.

Have Patterson as my WR3 and played him.
Of course, Hopkins and Moreno were on my bench.

Montee Ball really slow-playing this breakout performance.

[indeedproceed]

Peyton Manning can't move the ball nearly as well the second half. Surprised they're not playing it more conservatively.

[indeedproceed]

Well Montee Ball splashes one home, so that's good. Very Trent Richardsony first game though as the obvious starter. Not great.

I have Peyton and Julius Thomas on one of my teams. So last night was pretty awesome to me..

[Evantime34]

Who should I start?
QB: Wilson or Foles

Flex: Forsett, MJD, Cooks or Benjamin?

Ride the Brandin Cooks bandwagon. There is still PLENTY of room.

My PPR Money team has had a bit of an overhaul for week 2:

QB: Jake Locker
WR1: Harvin
WR2: Cooks
WR3: Hunter
RB1: Forte
RB2: Montee Ball
TE: Levine Toilolo
K: Nick Folk
DST: Green Bay
DEF: Larry Foote

Bench: QBs: C Kapernick, WRs: Keenan Allen, TEs: Jordan Reed, Ladarius Green, RBs: Lorenzo Taliaferro

I think you should start Kaepernick and Allen instead of Hunter and Locker. I don't think your tight end is the answer, I would see if you could trade for a better one.

Also you didn't tell me who I should start at QB.

[indeedproceed]

I probably start Foles.

As far as Locker V Kapernick: Locker is facing the cowboys, 3rd worse team against the pass last season, and their defense got worse. Kapernick is facing the Bears, who let Buffalo run all over them all day long. I figure Locker airs it out more, Kapernick keeps it on the ground.

And if Im going to be on Locker airing it out, I'm also betting on him connecting with Hunter, who led the Titans in targets last week.

Allen meanwhile is going to be squaring off against Seattle.

[rickyfan3.0...]

I can't imagine a planet in which I would put myself into a position to need to start Jake Locker.
