The "I'm in the Fantasy Championships but lost Antonio Brown" or something similar thread

[Angry Ram]

OK, this is for all of us people that are in the fantasy playoffs but lost a significant player. Give advice, get some advice.

And I lost #84.

I have the following starting lineup as of now....

Cam Newton
Todd Gurley II
Kareem Hunt
Robert Woods
JuJu Smith-Schuster
Delanie Walker
Alex Collins (flex)
Jake Elliot (Eagles K)
Rams DST

Guy I'm going against currently has...
Matthew Stafford
LeSean McCoy
Samaje Perine
Julio Jones
Josh Gordon
Hunter Henry
Keenan Allen (flex)
The Chiefs K
Jaguars DST

Sounds pretty good for me...except he has DeAndre Hopkins AND Dallas RB on the bench currently. I only have Dez Bryant on the bench. So any players I should add, particularly at WR?? Or just roll with my lineup??? Obviously it's slim pickings right now on waivers.

 

[BatteringRambo]

Nice topic choice @Angry Ram.

I lost TE Hunter Henry replaced with Jack Doyle and now (our) Zeurlein. QB Rodgers awhile ago and McCown recently he was balling hard.

I'm rolling with;
Keenum
Bell, Kamara
Thielen, Landry
Doyle
Dion Lewis
Phil Dawson and
Steelers D/ST over (our) Rams.

I'm so tempted to sub in Martavis Bryant but am sticking to what got me to the title match. Oops just saw the give and get advice part and versus.

Alex Smith
McCoy, Hyde
Baldwin, Kupp
Goodwin
Gronkowski
Gould
Jags D/ST

 

[lurkallday]

Your line up looks pretty good, doubt there anyone on the waiver wire worth picking up other than maybe Keelan Cole.

I'm in the same boat as you with losing brown, Rodgers and Greg the leg.

My lineup currently is:
Matthew Stafford
Todd Gurley
Mark Ingram
Brandin Cooks
Devin Funchess
Travis Kelce
Christian McCaffrey(flex)
Chris Boswell(k)
Jags D

Nelson Agholor and Stefon Diggs on the bench

against

Russell Wilson
Lesean Mcoy
Kareem Hunt
Tyreek Hill
Michael Thomas
Greg Olsen
Kenyan Drake(flex)
Harrison Butker(K)
Rams D

I bullshitted my way through the playoffs this year.

I’ve been rolling with this team for 6 weeks straight and haven’t touched the lineup. I lost Dalvin Cook. I play in the championship this week.

 

[BatteringRambo]

Damnit @lurkallday you had to mention Keelan Cole whom I've had for a few weeks now. Decisions decisions.

 

[Angry Ram]

I'm so tempted to sub in Martavis Bryant

Marty is so hit or miss, at least with JuJu you know he will be involved. And the Texans are just awful on D.

Your RBs should get you the W tho. Also I like the LeSean Mcoy at NE matchup in your favor.

I'm in the same boat as you with losing brown, Rodgers and Greg the leg.

First how in the HELL did you get Antonio Brown, Aaron Rodgers, and Todd Gurley II to begin with??? Goddamn dude.

Lookin at your WRs, seems like everyone that doesn't have DeAndre Hopkins and/or Julio are SOL. Devin Funchess has been hurt though, so keep aware of that.

Hmmm you reminded me of Sammy. He's good for a TD a game or so. Or nothing.

 

[GBRam15]

Damn, I lost Antonio Brown too (& Zeurlien), but am getting Zeke back. I've got

Stafford
Ingram
A. Jeffery
Funchess
Ebron
Zeke (flex)
C.J. Anderson (flex)
Jags D/ST
Gano - K

I picked up Keenan Cole, and could throw him in either for Funchess (who is banged up) or C.J. Anderson. Sucks not having AB though. On the bright side, we ripped Seattle a new A-hole for Zeke to run through.

 

[dolphinlover123]

A little OT but trying to decide between Cam Newton and Jared Goff. Im hearing the titans cb’s are hurt.

 

[Young Ram]

I also made my leagues championship and I lost GZ . Wondering if I should pluck Ficket or go with phillys Elliott.

Elliott. Hes safer.

 

[1maGoh]

I lost brown, wentz, and Legatron (that's right, only Rams get capitals). And some others but they were irrelevant. Luckily my league is afraid of waivers or something.

I'm starting:

Goff
Gurley
Kamara
Woods
Landry
Cook (barf)
Gordon
Boswell
Vikings D

I have Watkins, Matt Ryan, and saints D on the bench. I'm pretty sure I'm making the right decisions all around.

 

[Ellard80]

I lost Antonio Brown AND Devante Adams...

My team that i have left.

Bigben
Goff
Gurley (yes i had Gurley and Brown)
Mike Evans
Marvin Jones
Zach ertz
Lutz
Ryan Hogan
Pitt D

I just picked up Randall Cobb and Cole from Jags after I lost my top 2 WR....

Iuckily i am pretty Deep at WR... (I traded Drew Brees for Mike Evans at the beginning of the year) but they are injured badly...(hogan, adams, brown)

 

[Ellard80]

actually now that i see the titans secondary is so hurt... maybe i should play Goff over Bigben.

[dieterbrock]

I lost Zuerlien but have Tucker

Have to decide between Brees/Dak again
And 3 of these 5 WR
AJ Green
Alshon Jeffrey
Sammy Watkins
Golden Taint
Amari Cooper

Need Gurley/Kamara and the Rams D to come up big again for me!!

 

[Angry Ram]

No. There's a chance Philly might rest their starters depending on the results of the weekend games.

do I play Zeke against Seattle?

Yup.

do I play Keelan Cole who I just picked up who's been killin it the last couple games or stick with Fitz and Crabtree?

I'm a little iffy on Keelan Cole. Players that come out of no where usually are too risky especially for championship game.

Larry and Michael are the team's #1 WRs and been consistent usually all year.

do I pick up our new kicker Ficken or stick with Gould

Robbie Gould.

I lost Zuerlien but have Tucker

I'd play Golden Taint and AJ Green. Get your best guys out there.

It will be windy in Philadelphia. It's a really tough call.
