Help with this week's lineup?

What's up Huddle?

Would anyone like to help me set my lineup for this week? I’ll be honest, I have an uncanny ability to make the wrong choice when it comes to picking toss ups.

I am in a standard scoring 10 team league. Below is what I am leaning towards, but feel free to offer any suggestions.

QB – Ben Roethlisberger

WR – Julio Jones

WR – Allen Robinson

RB – Jordan Howard

RB – Carlos Hyde (Tough matchup against Buff, which happens to be my defense.)

Flex – Doug Baldwin or Crabtree or Jamaal Charles

TE – Zach Miller

K – Justin Tucker

Def - Buffalo

 

BN – Will Fuller (WR)

BN – Tyrell Williams (WR)

BN – Michael Crabtree (WR)

BN – Kyle Rudolph (TE) Bye Week

BN – Jamaal Charles

BN – Carson Wentz

You've got some really nice match-ups this week. Big Ben, Jordan Howard, and ARob are must starts. If it were me, I'm leaving Hyde in at RB and also taking a chance on Charles in the flex. Even though SF is projected for one of the lowest point totals of the week, you can pretty much guarantee Hyde gets 15-20 touches. They will be wanting to take the pressure off of Kaep in his first start of the year. Chiefs have been saying Charles is ready for a full workload all week long. I would not ignore that chatter against the Oakland D.

As hard as it is to bench your first round pick, I think it's a play you have to make this week. I would start Crabtree over Julio. While Julio may have a higher ceiling, Crabtree has a much higher floor. Falcons are projected as one of the lowest point totals of the week. Vegas knows how good that Seattle D is at home. When one of the highest scoring offenses in the league so far is projected almost at the bottom for the week... Something is not right. I'm staying away from Julio this week.

    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.  
    • Will be interesting to see how they come out tonight. The Boston game seemed to open the flood gates of media attention. And it’s not just that they’re playing well, in some instances they are getting compared with all time greats. This is still a young team, and it would be easy for an immature team to lose some focus, buy into their own hype, and think they can coast bit. The Heat are a middle of the road team without their leading scorer. There is no big dragon to slay, no big statement to make. I think we’ll learn a lot tonight: are they young but mature, or do they still have a ways to go mentally?
    • Panthers North for the win. Good luck to him. Great guy, hated to see him leave here, but he's about to work with the best QB he's ever worked with (at least on a regular basis).
