Start/sit Week 1


CheezyColt

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, looking for a little help or some opinions for Week 1.

QB: Tannehill

RB1: Lacy

RB2: A. Abdullah, T. Coleman, or D. Martin

WR1: AJ Green

WR2: A. Johnson, A. Cooper, or J. Landry

FLX: A. Johnson, A. Cooper, or J. Landry

TE: Gronkowski

D/ST: Denver

K: D. Bailey

I keep wanting to put Landry in to stack him with Tannehill, but really feel like Cooper and Johnson could be huge.

Coleman was announced the starter, but his boom or bust style behind that line worries me. Abdullah listed as the #3.

Any opinions and viewpoints would be appreciated! I have such a problem with overthinking these things, haha. Thanks!

I do have Eddie Lacy too, so he's guaranteed a starting spot at RB1.  So for RB2 it seems like Coleman or Martin are more trusted than Abdullah at this point.  So that's Coleman against PHI defense or Martin against TEN defense.  I'll have to sit and think on that.

 

At WR, I have AJ Green locked in at the 1.  That leaves Cooper/Andre/Landry to fill the WR2/Flex spot.  Originally I had Andre at the #2 and Cooper in the Flex.  But everyone seems very high on Landry this year, and the idea of stacking him with Tannehill as my QB intrigues me.  Especially against the WAS defense.  Which two out of this receiving trio do you guys see getting the most points?  I don't want to have to sit Andre but it's looking like that might have to happen this week...

 

(Working on swinging a trade for Brady to pair him with Gronk.  One guy drafted both Peyton and Brady and has Brady on this bench.  Said he wants to wait until week 1 is over before doing any trades.)

For my flex who should I start?

 

Lamar Miller, Charles Sims, Chris Ivory, Joique Bell, Vincent Jackson, Allen Robinson

 

Also along that note in my RB slot I'm starting McCoy.  Should I consider starting any of those guys instead of McCoy given that McCoy may be on a pitch count and said he wouldn't be 100%?

If it were me, I'd go with Chris Ivory against that Browns defense. Lamar Miller is intriguing with his pass catching however but the Redskins' front is stout vs the run. Ivory is probably the safer bet out of the two, he gets better as the game goes on.

I would start Miller. And if McCoy is a go start him, if not put bell in his place.

I guess nobody knows...

Every site (except ESPN) has Landry ahead of Adams this week. I get that he has a cupcake matchup, but so does Adams and he has Rogers to throw it to him... they also have Randle above both of them (projection-wise) and that's just hard for me to buy...

Games are tomorrow, so I suppose I'll make a game time decision.

    • Well….  If you see Murphy as a 3T and are not concerned about all the other players who can play there, you’re fine then with Murphy only playing roughly 25 percent of the snaps for perhaps 2-3 years?   You’re ok with that for a first round pick?   Because I thought Ballard went out of his way to say Buckner was a physical freak of nature who might be able to play much longer than one might normally expect.    Curious to your thoughts here. 
    • Any worries about rumored shoulder issue?
    • I knew I had a favorite last year, but I thought I would be good with whoever the Colts picked... and this was until the odds for the Colts picking Levis hit -4000 or something of the sort about half an hour before the draft and my heart completely dropped. In a way I'm happy the odds-makers completely missed on this one... it showed me how I really felt about those players and made me even more appreciative for us drafting Richardson an hour later.    So... you would be good with any of them... but who do you REALLY want?    On your question... if I had to guess, most Colts fans haven't watched this QB draft extensively. I know I haven't. So his statistical profile doesn't scream 1st rounder so... possibly why not many people really like him. Also keep in mind that this is compared to the other 3. 2 of them have been crowned as the next big thing for a while now and the third one won the Heismann with some exceptional performaces throughout the year. 
    • My sleepers: (meaning, the kind of players coaches would like to have, more than what consensus big board gives credit to them. Some of them might need couple of years to attain their high potential, if drafted into suitable coaching environment, so a lot depends on that. Some of them have injury concerns too).   Most of them are high IQ players or high-effort, high-motor players - two traits I look for from the Drafted players, list is long but I like these guys.. gonna be interesting to see where they land and how it works out for them in long run.    Payton Wilson, LB, NC State Caelen Carson, CB, Wake Forest Kiran Amegadjie, OT, Yale Maason Smith, IDL, LSU Christian Mahogany, OG, Boston College Max Melton, CB, Rutgers Zak Zinter, OG, Michigan Bucky Irving, RB, Oregon Khyree Jackson, CB Oregon Dylan McMahon, C, NC State (good fit for Browns)  Tykee Smith, SAF, Georgia Ainias Smith, WR, Texas A&M Cam Hart, CB, Notre Dame Michael Barrett, LB Michigan Malachi Corley, WR, Western Kentucky Beaux Limmer, IOL, Arkansas   Kamren Kinchens, S, Miami McKinnley Jackson, IDL, Texas A&M Kalen King, CB, Penn State Justin Eboigbe, IDL, Alabama    Jacob Cowing, WR, Arizona Beau Brade, SAF, Maryland Isaac Guerendo, RB, Louisville Jalyx Hunt, EDGE, Houston Christian (I'm hoping for day 3 Vikings pickup, as Flores could work wonders with him)  Jaheim Bell, TE, Florida State Brennan Jackson, EDGE, Washington State  Delmar Glaze, OT, Maryland Myles Cole, EDGE, Texas Tech Kristian Boyd, DT, Northern Iowa Javontae Jean-Baptiste, DL, Notre Dame Jordan Magee, LB, Temple Myles Harden, CB, South Dakota Jalen Green, EDGE, James Madison (UDFA Target prospect)  Trey Taylor, S, Air Force (UDFA prospect) Eyabi Okie-Anoma, EDGE, Charlotte Qwan'tez Stiggers, CB, Toronto  Sundiata Anderson, EDGE, Grambling State  Daequan Hardy, CB, Penn State (Special Teams, Returner)  Emani Bailey, RB, TCU   As for Vikings, I don't wanna rush to draft QB if the team isn't confident in the guys they could move up in draft range, and I'd like to just draft impact players that build the roster at this point.   Build the team, draft a franchise QB at right time, don't rush and ruin years trying to make someone work out in the NFL.
