I'm in a tough match up in my 1st round playoff... my team has some brutal matchups this week so what do you guys think? I'm starting Cobb for sure, then probably Antonio Brown and Greg Jennings, though the reports on Amendola are looking good... Which 3 should i start?
Randall Cobb, Danny Amendola, Greg Jennings, Antonio Brown, Donnie Avery
I think you lock in Cobb and Avery, then pick from the other three for your last spot. Since you didn't say otherwise, I'm assuming your league is standard scoring. With that said, I like Brown; in a PPR league, I like Amendola despite his injury. Jennings, IMO is a distant last. He's done nothing to suggest he's start-able since he's returned from injury, and his matchup is awful.
Thanks, yeah it is a standard yahoo league, I was thinking Amendola (because he'll get a ton of targets and seems relatively healthy finally), Cobb for sure, and Jennings... but maybe Avery... Brown has been talking about his ankle still bothering him, and the Steelers looked terrible last week.
Don't get married to the Jennings brand name, man. Check out his stats since returning. Could he have a good game? Sure he could, but without the benefit of hindsight I can't really think of a good reason to start him over any of your other options.
Hmm thanks, so no love for Jennings even though Jordy Nelson is out again? To think at the beginning of the season I had both Calvin Johnson and AJ Green...
More love than if Jordy were playing, but definitely no more love than the other guys. Not a time in the season to play name brands just because they're name brands, IMO.
