I'm supposed to get beat by 15 points on my next matchup. I beat my projections by 47.5% last week and I would argue that NFL.com should reconsider them if they're that far out. Le'veon Bell is supposed to score 7.9 points against Baltimore who were 18th against the rush last season; he scored 25.7 last week against Cleveland who ranked 10th so that makes perfect sense!?
I just filled my draft board out to 184, it will be sensible and draft me a kicker and defense which aren't on the board yeah? I'm 90% sure I'll make the live draft but just in case
They are suggesting RG3 will be the highest scoring player (with 28points in a standard points scoring system). OK...he's facing the Jags and they don't have a decent secondary, but 28 points is a stretch. Can he stay healthy? Doubt it. And despite having Matt Ryan in both of my starting lineups, they reccommend to pick up Jake Locker and Brian Hoyer (!!!)...Jake Locker I can sort of understand because the Titans are facing the Cowboys, but Hoyer's facing that Saints defense, which is still a good unit. (One reason why I have faith in Ryan to deliver the goods, in fantasy terms at least, against Cinci.)
And Chris Ivory is currently being predicted to get 3 points against Green Bay. Seeing how bad the Packers run D is (thanks, means more points for Marshawn Lynch), I'll take my chances with Ivory thank you very much.
I think Charles will be back, KC were just horrible and Tennesee were good
The Jags actually do have a good secondary when Jonathan Cyprien is fit. When he's not there Winston Guy gets exposed (they're like a second rate Thomas and Chancellor style duo) and they don't have any safety depth, both Prosinski and Josh Evans are pretty rubbish. 0 points scored with Cyprien in the game, 34 without him against the Eagles. He got KO'd for 2 minutes so I guess he's a serious doubt for Sunday. The Jags will put him on his back too much for him to score that much particularly if he's apprehensive about leaving the pocket.
Bell and Cooks/Colston then (tbh idk how much difference it makes which one you pick). Pierre Thomas doesn't get many carries for the Saints
Gets a lot of 3rd down snaps though without sproles. Got like 70 yards on 4 receptions last week i think. But yeah I think its Bell and one of those 2 tbh.

When we say Bell we're talking Le'Veon right? If Joique then uhm
Need to start 2 of the following mess of RBs - Mathews (vs SEA), J Bell (at CAR), Thomas (at CLE), Hyde (vs CHI), Bradshaw (vs PHI). In general I like Mathews and Bell, just not against possibly the two best defences in the league.

I can see Carlos Hyde doing good things. Honestly though that's not a really pretty set, but I think I'd play Mathews as well, the 'Hawks D is great but they're better against the pass than the run so I think SD will use Mathews a bit more than usual. Idk though
