Speedyg Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 It's playoff time, so the difficult decisions are here. Do you go with your studs regardless of match up? Case in point, I am considering very strongly sitting Julio this TNF vs Saints and Lattimore. He's had an "ok" season, but up until the Bucs game you really couldn't tell the difference between him and most WRs fantasy wise. Then again, that blow up factor is the reason why Julio is Julio. What about you? Have you had scenarios in the past where your stud had a tough match up on paper? Did you sit/start him? And what was the result?

Incarcerated_Scarface Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I have Julio and will be starting him. It's all about the matchups but you drafted Julio 1st round I'm assuming and you keep using him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntitans4life17 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 it depends on who you are gonna bench him for. what are your options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedyg Posted December 6, 2017 Author Share Posted December 6, 2017 Cooks, Gordon, Tyreek. Gordon and Hill are better matchup on paper than Cooks and Julio. Have not really decided what I'll do yet. One thing that might sway me keeping Julio is that I'm going against Ryan. Right now I'm leaning Cooks (no Gronk) and rolling the dice on Gordon getting the targets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a dud last week but prior to that he had been pretty solid and with Gronk out should be even more of an option. I wouldn't trust Gordon yet. He still has Kizer throwing him the ball. Tyreek is an intriguing option, but to me he is as boom or bust as Julio but with a lower floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4L Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I am thinking about benching Kareem hunt. Not sure if he even qualifies as a 'stud' anymore. I could play kenyan Drake and then Sterling Sheppard as my flex. Not sure what to do. Hunt against oakland you would think would be potential for a big game. idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammymvpknight Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I’ve benched Hunt the past few weeks with positive results. I’d be very concerned about starting Julio if Lattimore is playing. I don’t think I have anyone worth starting over him in the one league I own him...but I’m fully expecting about 5 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakland is tempting, and perhaps them airing it out last week opens up things for Hunt. For whatever is worth, I'm playing Drake over Fournette.

bigbadbuff23835 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I have a similar predicament. Have Julio vs Latimore. and Russ and Baldwin against JAX. Sucks but hoping they all show up. Russ has pretty much carried me in this league (6pts per pass TD) so I need him this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incarcerated_Scarface Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 OK well I have Julio and Mike Thomas. I need to start them both right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incarcerated_Scarface Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 well, we do 3 WRs so I have those 2 and Keenan Allen. I also Have Alshon, Tate & DT. I'm starting Julio, Thomas, and Allen as of right now. Don't ask me how I got so stacked. I got Allen late too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbuff23835 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I don't think you can ever sit Julio Jones or Russ Wilson. I'd hate to lose because I sat two studs that have proven matchup proof over the years. How healthy is Lattimore even? If he's not fully healthy Julio could eat him alive.

I think he'll have his share of plays. Baldwin would be more of a toss up for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have drake and Kamara going this week for sure. My only dilemma is whether or not Sterling Sheppard or the khunt should be my flex. I also like that drake goes on Monday, so no matter what happens I will have a chance on monday. I think I am just going to roll with Hunt. I have a sneaking suspicion that this is a week he finally gets multiple touchdowns. That will be a high scoring game and I think the raiders focus will be on Hill and Kelce.
