Thursday’s Twitter Takes

It's Thursday night Football and there's nothing like it in the Black-Hole! It's the Raiders and the Chiefs tonight in a pivotal AFC West Divisional Clash. Smith, Carr, Cooper, and Hunt, the stars are out and it should be a good one, so get your pop-corn ready!

"Carr will need to do more than dink and dunk tonight, if the Raiders are to have success!" by @FantsySprtsHome

The Raiders quarterback has been banged up this season. He returned last week, but did not look like his normal self, dinking and dunking against the Chargers. Carr’s going to need a bigger game tonight for the Raiders to come out on top.

"Raiders will need to feed Lynch a heavy load of carries tonight!! by @FantsySprtsHome

Running back Marshawn Lynch has been significantly under-used thus far this season. He’s topped 13 carries just once this season back in Week 1. The Raiders need to give Lynch more carries tonight so he can switch to Beast Mode.

"Sleeper tonight could be Cooper, if he can hang on to a couple of passes!" by @FantsySprtsHome

The Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper has not been good this season, but this kid is just too talented to be bad. The Chiefs defense can be had and Cooper has the skills to have them, he just needs plays. I expect the Raiders to take a few shots with Cooper tonight.

"Crabtree should be in for a big night, especially in the Red-Zone" by @FantsySprtsHome

As I mentioned, this Chiefs secondary (25th most passing yards allowed this season) can be had. Crabtree is a Carr favorite especially close the endzone. Look for Crab to find paydirt in this one.

"Could it be another big night for the No.4 fantasy TE Kelce in Primetime?" by @FantsySprtsHome

The Chiefs tight end has played well this season on the big stage. In his last two starts in Prime Time he’s been dominant and the last time he faced the Raiders he torched them for 5 catches and 101 receiving yards. Kelce is a big part of the Chiefs passing game, so expect to see a lot of Red-87.

"Kelce has been big his last two night games; 15/209/1" by @FantsySprtsHome

It’s worth noting Kelce’s last two games under the lights, he’s been targeted 19 times. In these high profile scenarios it seems Andy Reid likes to utilize his big pass catching tight end.

That's My Take.

The Chiefs rookie running back Kareem Hunt has been on fire to start the season and back on the big stage Monday night against the Redskins he’s looking to continue. He may find little space this week against the Redskins 4th ranked run defense, but no way is he sitting. Hunt has the big play knack and with 137 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns he has great value in PPR regardless.

I am running with Bills running back LeSean McCoy in week 4. Last week the Broncos number three ranked run defense had the no.17 fantasy runner boxed up, but this week McCoy gets the Falcons. It should be easier sledding for the Bills ball carrier facing a Falcons defense that ranks 8th, but has seen the 4th fewest carries and allows the 3rd most yards per carry.

I am not down on Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell this week, just keeping his numbers real at No. 7 this week. Bell is currently ranked as the No.15 fantasy running back, but should do well this week facing the Ravens 18th ranked run defense.

I’ve move Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch down a few spots this week, but owners proceed with caution. The Broncos run defense has been stout through three weeks, no reason to see this change. Yards will be hard to find, but Lynch will see the lionshare and could get some goal line work for an short score.

In the same game, I am not real high on Broncos running back CJ Anderson. He’ll likely see his usual workload, but what could derail his efforts is Jamaal Charles. If Charles gets into the game and has early success, he could cut into Anderson’s carries.

I’ve moved Redskins running back Chris Thompson up to No.24 this week, but don’t be surprised if he cracks the Top-20. Thompson has been on fire the past two weeks and as the rest of the offense heats up, Thompson’s upside skyrockets. Last week Thompson recorded 14 touches, expect the Redskins to try and get him to that number again this week.

That’s My Take.

Who Are You Starting & Sitting (Week 2)

Start or Sit

Buck Allen (start) The Ravens are without Danny Woodhead for a while and running back Buck Allen is expected to take on the 3rd down passing role. Allen is a capable pass catcher and has value in PPR formats, primarily as a low-end flex option.

Cameron Brate (start) The Bucs tight end could be the forgotten man in the Bears secondary with both hands full covering Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson. Brate finished the 2016 season with 57 receptions and 8 touchdowns. He could be good for a couple of grabs on Sunday, including a couple of red-zone looks.

Jesse James (sit) The Steelers will play host to the visiting Vikings on Sunday and tight end Jesse James may not find things as easy a go as in week 1. James managed to find the end zone twice last week, but could slim pickens against a stout Vikings defense that  allowed 14th fewest points to opposing tight ends in 2016.

Ted Ginn Jr (start) The Saints and Patriots could be locked in a barn burner. Ginn is nothing more than a favorable flex option this week, but I like his matchup. He was targeted 5 times last week, so he should get a few deep looks and pay off.

Travis Kelce (start) The Chiefs were creative in week 1 getting the ball into Kelce’s hands. They’ll likely make another concerted effort, even more so in the passing game and Kelce should reap the rewards.

Leonard Fournette (start) The Jaguars won’t have an easy time on Sunday, but Fournette should get enough carries to carve out a decent day for fantasy owners. The big back out of LSU should be a solid RB2.

JJ Nelson (start) The Cardinals will be without John Brown and David Johnson, so Palmer may have to lean even more on the passing game in this one. Nelson saw some steady work in week 1 and could see an uptick this week. He’s more like a low-to-mid WR3, but has upside potential. He’s a sneaky play on Sunday.

Devin Funchess (sit) The Panthers passing game looked anemic last Sunday with the receivers only seeing a total of 9 targets. Any of the three (Kelvin Benjamin, Russell Shepard, and Funchess) are a tough start right now until Cam is 100 percent healthy.

Marshawn Lynch (sit) Beast Mode looked pretty good in week as the Raiders managed his work load, limiting him to 19 touches. He’ll get a similar number this week, but could work his way to triple digits with a score.

Hunter Henry (sit) Last week the Charger tight end saw zero looks against the No Fly Zone Broncos secondary. He could get some work tomorrow against the Dolphins in the Chargers home opener, but with so many weapons in the passing game, there are better options available.

Eddie Lacy (sit) Last week Lacy looked terrible rushing for 3 yards on 5 carries. With Thomas Rawls entering the equation this week, Lacy belongs on your bench until further notice.

Rob Kelly (sit) The Redskins offense was out of sync last week and Kelley and the running game stalled with a total of 64 yards on 17 carries. Kelley had just 30 yards rushing last Sunday and this week he may find fewer holes; sit him.

Jason Witten (sit) The old man Witten was solid in week 1 on Sunday night against the Giants, but this week he get the Broncos No Fly Zone; just 3.70 fantasy points allowed to Chargers tight ends. I’m sitting Witten if I can afford and looking for a better matchup.

Martellus Bennett (start) The Packers and Falcons meet Sunday night in what could be an offensive spectacle. Bennett was targeted 6 times in week one and could see even more this week in a game that figures to see a lot of plays. I like Bennett’s chances to score in this one.

Golden Tate (start) The Lions wide receiver is healthy and though the Giants secondary played well last week, start Tate on Monday night. Tate was heavily targeted in week 1 and should see a heavy dose this week once again. In PPR formats he’s a must.

That’s My Take.

Saturday Night Edition

Who Are You Starting & Sitting (Week 1)

Start or Sit

Charles Clay (start) The Bills tight end has a nice matchup against a Jets secondary that ranked 9th worst against opposing tight ends last season and allowed 10 touchdowns. He’s a low TE1 this week.

Kendall Wright (start) The Bears wide out will likely fill a familiar role in the offense this season and goes up against a Falcons secondary that ranked 10th worst against opposing receivers and allowed the 6th most receptions. He’s a nice flex this week.

Jeremy Hill (sit) The Bengals appear to have a bit of a convoluted backfield this season and add that they face a Ravens defense that allows the 7th fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs and I am inclined to stay away.

Martavis Bryant (start) The Steelers wide receiver could have a juicy match up this week playing alongside with Antonio Brown. Add the Browns secondary allowed 20 touchdowns to opposing receivers last season and Bryant is favorite flex this week.

John Brown (start) The Cardinals wide receiver has been working hard to get healthy and back to form and in the team’s third preseason game he showed what he’s capable of when healthy with two scores. Sunday he’ll take on a Lions secondary that allowed the 7th most receptions to opposing wide receivers and 20 receiving touchdowns in 2016. Brown is another favorite for a flex play this week.

Leonard Fournette (sit) The Jags passing offense really struggled in the preseason which makes me believe the rookie runner is going to see a lot of 8 and 9 man in the box this season. Fournette will also be facing a Texans defense that returns JJ Watt and allowed the 11 fewest rushing yards a season ago. It’s going to be a long day for Fournette on Sunday.

Marshawn Lynch (sit) A lot of folks are excited about the return of Beast Mode, but fantasy owners may want to temper their expectations this Sunday. Lynch and Raiders will face a Titans defense that allowed the 3rd fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs last season. You may have to start him because of where he was drafted, but if you have options you may want to consider.

Terrelle Pryor (start) The Redskins newest big target has a tasty matchup on Sunday facing an Eagles secondary that allowed the 3rd most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. In the matchup I start Pryor and believe he’s got a great shot to score.

Sammy Watkins (sit) The Rams newest receiver may have a difficult time finding the end zone on Sunday. The Rams offense sputtered through the preseason and even with a Colts secondary missing cornerback Vontae Davis, the Rams are likely to run the ball a lot. Watkins could be tough sit on Sunday, but if you have to play him, it could be a long day.

Tyler Lockett (start) The Seahawks travel to Green Bay and like the recent heat wave in Southern California, Lockett could get hot on Sunday against a secondary that allowed the most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. Lockett is not likely to see a large volume of targets, but he could get loose on a long one which is why I like him as a flex start.

Kelvin Benjamin (start) The Panthers wide out has looked sharp this preseason and should be peppered with bunch of targets on Sunday. He’ll face a Niners secondary that allowed the 5th most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. He’s a mid WR2 start for me.

Paul Perkins (sit) The Cowboys were very good against the run a year ago allowing the second fewest yards rushing and the 4th fewest fantasy points. Perkins is going to have a tough time running against the Boys on Sunday night.

That’s My Take.

Fantasy Draft Watch

Overvalued Players

And so begins all of the hate. Well, not really. This piece is not meant to be filled with any kind of fantasy hate, but rather least liked we’ll call it. With a couple of drafts still to go this weekend I am constantly checking the current ADPs and looking over my (makeshift homemade) player rankings.

There are plenty of studs to love in this year’s fantasy drafts, but I would have to say there a couple of players getting lots of love right now that I am not feeling.

Let’s start with the biggest mover on the boards of recent, the Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan. Before the Patriots starting receiver Julian Edelman went down with a season ending knee injury, Hogan had value coming significantly late of the draft boards (in the flier position). Since the injury to Edelman, Hogan’s stock is skyrocketing. While I do believe his stock is on the rise (currently being drafted as the No. 35 fantasy receiver) remember last season with tight end Rob Gronkowski out for much of the campaign, Hogan did not even crack the top 50 fantasy receivers (in PPR). Hogan tallied just 38 receptions for 680 yards and four scores on 58 targets. He’s a popular fantasy flavor right now, but this season not only do you have Gronk back, but the team has added Brandin Cooks. I think his ceiling may be around 80 targets with his stats project out he’s looking at 52 catches, 930 yards receiving, 6 touchdowns (good enough for the No. 38 fantasy receiver last season). I think with the loss, Hogan definitely has a shot at finishing around the top 40 (but that is at the top of his ceiling), but his current 7th round draft position price may be a little too high.

I look at the Broncos backfield and yes, last season before going down running back CJ Anderson was having a very nice run ranked as the No. 12 fantasy runner after 7 weeks. Entering his fifth year in Denver, Anderson has yet to play a full season in his four year career and is coming off a knee injury just like newly acquired (in the off-season) running back Jamaal Charles (so health should be a concern for both). Both backs appear now healthy and at the moment the job looks like it’s Anderson's. I don’t have any questions about Anderson’s toughness or productivity, but in the little that I have seen of both backs this season, there’s little separation from the two. When you stack up Anderson versus Charles, the latter just has so much more upside. Believing that Charles is healthy now (and he looked very good in the small sample size I watched, especially pass protection), I won’t be surprised if the Broncos head coach Vance Joseph names him the starter sooner rather than later. It’s because of this I am leery of Anderson’s current ADP of 5.03 (according FFC), the No. 23 fantasy running back going off the board. I think Anderson will stay fantasy relevant, but with a healthy Charles, a top 30 fantasy running back finish could be long stretch.

Moving to Vegas, oh wait, the Oakland Raiders will be moving to Vegas eventually, just not there yet. And one player they will be bringing along with them possibly (if he can last) is “Beast Mode” running back Marshawn Lynch. His nickname has to be one of the coolest, unfortunately however cool it is, it won’t help you score points in fantasy football. Lynch is returning to football after taking a year off and while some may say and believe the year off could be good for him and his body, I have my reservations about a player stepping away for a full season and then deciding to return. Lynch is one of the baddest and no question toughest runners the game has seen, but he sat out a full year (operative word being sat and not trained for a year). I think Lynch can return to his old form and in Oakland they have a pretty good O-line, so there should be some nice productivity. My concerns with Lynch, I just don’t see him coming back and rushing for 1,200 yards and scoring 12 touchdowns just like that, which his current 2.12 ADP in standard format (according to FFC) would suggest. Remember, he’s a hard nosed, tough runner between the tackles and now 31 years of age entering his 10th season; how much does he have left in the tank? The Raiders have depth and plenty of weapons surrounding their franchise quarterback Derek Carr, so I can’t see them overworking Lynch early in the season. Lynch collected 1,181 carries from 2011-2015, which is a lot of punishment. I expect to see Lynch used as a primary early down and short-yardage back this season, maybe getting a little more run late in the year. I’m just not expecting the volume needed to finish as a top 20 fantasy runner. I would be happy with 200 carries, 800 yards rushing, 160 yards receiving, 9 total touchdowns (that would be the No. 22 fantasy running back last season, standard format).

Now I might have a little more love for this player in Green Bay, tight end Martellus Bennett. He’s in a new system with a great quarterback and there’s no competition in front him to steal opportunities; Bennett is the clear cut starting tight end. Hold on, is this for 2016? After the Patriots lost Gronkowski, Bennett was set up to have big year as the No. 1 tight end. So how did he do? Bennett finished as the No. 10 fantasy tight end last season with 55 receptions, 701 yards receiving and a career high 7 touchdowns. His ADP is 8.05, the 10th tight end off the board. My take here is you have players like Hunter Henry, Eric Ebron, and Jack Doyle going several rounds later and I am not so sure the difference is going to be that great. Remember like New England, Green Bay has a loaded offense with a lot of weapons, not really certain where Bennett will fit in the pecking order. I think you can wait on him and get players of equal or similar productivity.

That’s My Take. ~David Ortega

This Week on the Cover

Sleeper or Bust

Fantasy drafts are in full swing, studs are being taken at the top, Ezekiel Elliott is falling, and rookie running backs seem to be on the rise.

Even with all of that, navigating through this year’s fantasy drafts will present many challenges even for the most savvy owner and experienced fantasy player.

The biggest challenge will be finding those hidden gems (fantasy sleepers), while trying to avoid the big disappointments (bust) that await every fantasy draft.

Some of the names at the top of this years list will include the Steelers 3rd year wide receiver Martavis Bryant. He’s shown the flash, but has had trouble staying on the field. He’ll be a risky selection no matter where taken, but offers huge upside and a big payoff if and when he returns to the field.

Another similar draft selection is the Redskins wideout Terrelle Pryor. He’s currently going in as early as the 3rd round and coming off a successful 2016 campaign (77 receptions, 1,007 yards receiving, 4 touchdowns on 140 targets), he has tremendous value. This season he’s in line as the team’s number 1A-1B receiver and has the potential of finishing as a top 15 receiver this season.

Other names that fall into this group, while they are names we know, in new situations there are many questions that abound; running backs Marshawn Lynch, Adrian Peterson, and Jamaal Charles. All could surprise and payoff in the end, but when to take these guys will depend on what you are willing to risk.

Remember, the earlier you take these names, the higher the expectation. So drafters proceed with caution and good luck.

That’s My Take.

David’s Daily Digest

BEASTMODE UNLEASHED

No Holds Barred!

So much for the holdout-hangover for Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch, who kicked off the Thursday night opener with a bang. The Seahawks runner proved he didn’t need a full training camp to get ready for the 2014 NFL season.

Lynch dominated the Packers defense running wild in full beastmode, tearing through the secondary on his way to 110 yards rushing. Lynch toted the rock 20 times and averaged a hefty 5.5 yards per carry while scoring twice on the ground. He also added a single grab for another 14 yards.

Lynch may not be seeing the payday of his choice, but he playing like a man possessed and deserving of recognition as one of the leagues very best running backs. Lynch is clearly one of fantasy football’s top running backs, but his PPR real estate may take a slight hit based on his lone reception. Either way, if you paid attention Thursday night it was clear, Lynch is fantasy gold week in and week out.

Fantasy Notes:

If you drafted any of the Seahawks backfield (Robert Turbin, Christine Micheal) other than Lynch, don’t hold your breath in hopes of playing them anytime soon. Lynch is a durable back; heading into 2014 he has missed just two games over the past three season which includes 988 touches over that span. He is also a featured part of the Seahawks run game (21 touches in week one) and add the explosive Percy Harvin to the mix and there’s slim and none chances of either seeing many opportunities going forward. Don’t hold your breath.

Running backs

1. Marshawn Lynch
2. Doug Martin
3. Alfred Morris
4. Adrian Peterson
5. Arian Foster
6. Darren McFadden
7. Jamal Charles
8. Knowshon Moreno
9. David Wilson

15. DeMarco Murray
16. Frank Gore
17. Matt Forte
18. Trent Richardson
19. Jonathan Dwyer
20. Steven Jackson


My notes: 

Marshawn Lynch (1.266 rushing yards and 9 rushing touchdowns) has been running hard and running well this season and should continue on Sunday against the Bills 28th ranked run defense. Lynch has posted seven 100 yard rushing games this season and has scored in two straight games. Against the Bills (18 rushing touchdowns allowed and 134.5 yards per game allowed) he’s a lock to make it three straight and post his eighth 100-yard game.

The Broncos running game is now led by running back Knowshon Moreno who has totaled 361 yards (273 rushing, 88 receiving) in three games. This Sunday he’s on the road to face the Ravens and their 25th ranked run defense; Moreno has seen an average of 28 touches in his last three games, including 36 last week, so he’s a sure bet to see another heavy load of touches and production.

Running back CJ Spiller will be the feature running back back this week and will see plenty of work, but this Sunday he draws a tough start against the Seahawks 11th ranked run defense. Spiller should still be effective on Sunday, just don’t expect a huge day; 75-85 yards rushing and 20-30 yards receiving, but trips to the end zone could be scarce.

Rookie running back David Wilson will get the start for the Giants on Sunday and he should see plenty of touches, but mixed emotions with this one. Wilson has breakaway speed and big play potential, but without enough film on the kid it’s tough to expect huge numbers. He should still be highly productive against the Falcons 23rd ranked defense, and with his speed there’s always a great chance for a big day.

The Raiders are still the Raiders and with a player like running back Jamal Charles toting the rock, he’s always a threat for the homerun. Charles is ranked 5th this season in the league with 1,220 yards rushing and he’s coming off a big performance a week ago. The Raiders allow more than 130 yards on the ground and have allowed 17 rushing touchdowns this season; it has the making for only Charles second 100-yard rushing game against the Raiders in 5 seasons.

David’s Daily Digest

Sunday Favorites

Alexander Worth Starting
The Chargers and quarterback Philip Rivers have found themselves a new go-to receiver in Danario Alexander. With his 6’5”, 217-lb frame, Alexander is bolting his way up the fantasy receivers charts; over his last five games he’s caught 30 passes for 494 yards receiving and five touchdowns. Alexander seems to be making Charger fans quickly forget about Vincent Jackson and with his current play, he’s becoming a favorite of fantasy owners. Alexander has been targeted 47 times over his past five games and is clearly on Rivers’ radar as a go-to option; Alexander is a borderline WR1/WR2 every week.

McFadden Ready to Bounce Back
Running back Darren McFadden has not had the type of season many fantasy owners were expecting when they drafted him during their fantasy drafts back in August. Through 14 weeks McFadden has missed four games and only rushed for more than 100 yards on two occasions. Last week in the Raiders loss the Broncos Run-DMC did manage to score for only his third time this season. This Sunday against the Chiefs 27th ranked run defense McFadden will be looking to bounce back; Run-DMC certainly has the potential to break out and the Chiefs are primed to crack. The Chiefs allow 4.6 yards per carry, over 130 yards per game and 17 run plays of 20 yards or more (most in the league); this is a good week to start McFadden.

Wilson the Hot Flavor this Week
The Giants will be without running back Ahmad Bradshaw (ruled OUT) this Sunday against the Falcons, opening the door for the speedy rookie running back David Wilson. Last week Wilson impressed on special teams and with a tasty matchup this week against the Falcons 23rd ranked run defense he looks ready to impress in the starting role. The Falcons allow almost 5 yards per carry and have surrendered 14 rushing touchdowns this season; Wilson is the hot start off the waiver wire this week.

Beast-mode Returns to Buffalo
The Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch returns to Buffalo on Sunday where his career began. Lynch was drafted in the first round by the Bills in the 2007 draft. This Sunday he brings his beast-mode to Ralph Wilson Stadium where he’ll face the 28th ranked run defense. Lynch has seven 100-yard rushing games this season and looks like a good bet to make it eight on Sunday. He’s a Top-10 fantasy start.

Madden-Curse no match for Megatron
Despite being on the cover of the famous Madden Game, Calvin Johnson continues to defy the infamous curse. It’s been a lean year for touchdowns this season for Megatron, but he continues to post big numbers each week. Johnson has posted six straight 100-yard receiving games (averaging 151 yards per game) and has 9 total this season. Johnson has also scored in four of his last five contests (5 touchdowns this season). This Sunday he matches up against the Cardinals 5th ranked secondary, but these days averaging nearly 15 targets per game (over his last five starts) it makes little difference who Megatron faces; he’s a must start every Sunday.

Morris Ready to Carry the Load
The Redskins rookie running back Alfred Morris has been running well for the Redskins this season with six 100 yard rushing games under his belt, including three straight. With the Redskins set to square off versus the Browns, Morris will have a great chance to make it four straight against the 17th ranked run defense. Morris is also averaging more than 22 touches over his last four starts, so fantasy owners have to like his chances at hitting the century mark on Sunday. Morris is a top-15 fantasy start.

More takes for week 15.
