Dustin Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 If there's an injury to one of your starters, your option become much more limited. Make sure that WR/RB/TE is in his respective spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, most experienced FF owners do that but it is good for new FF GMs and not-so-avid FF GMs to be reminded of this fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo2004 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Wait, what?? I've never heard of this rule. Please explain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad72 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Wait, what?? I've never heard of this rule. Please explain. It is not a rule, it is a good strategy to play by. If you play someone in your FLEX position on a Thursday night game, then if one of your RB or WR starters gets banged up, you don't have the option to manipulate the FLEX position later. So, play the guy you wanted to play in the FLEX position in the regular RB or WR position, and keep the FLEX open should an injury happen to give you options.

Dustin Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Wait, what?? I've never heard of this rule. Please explain.Let's say you have Antonio Brown on your team and you start him in your flex spot on a Thursday night game. Then on Friday, Jody Nelson pulls up lame and is out on Sunday. Now you're locked in on having to start another WR in his place (your #3 WR Harry Douglas) when you could have played Antonio Brown as a WR and put a better TE or RB in the flex.

I will try and pay attention to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
