Are you playing either of these guys? I think I am. Big game on the line.

 

[Ever Present Lurker]

Yeah, lots of byes for me, I think I'm going to have to trot them out there. Freddy over Sankey, Sammy over Robert Woods. And my God have mercy on my soul.

Fred Jackson never ceases to amaze me. I can see 15 rushes, 60 yards and a 50/50 shot of a TD...plus he catches the ball of the backfield. Three to four catches is not of the realm. Fantasy wise if you're hurting at RB this could be a play to get you 10-15 points?

Sammy feels good and as a rookie listened to the doctors and staff. I think he's good to go too!

I just put in Fred over Sankey too!

Some female reporter just said both are gametime decisions?

 

[ConnSKINS26]

Hate GTD. I want to start FJax, Cadet is my only other option in one league.

 

[Ever Present Lurker]

It's murky... I've got the tentatively ready to roll, but I'm also ready to pull them

Dr. Jene said that even if Fred Jackson is active, he expects him to get limited touches.

 

[Ever Present Lurker]

If Freddy suits up, I expect his usual workload. He's the veteran leader of a very young team. If he's in pads it's for a reason. (Pure opinion)

And in Dr. Jene I trust.I'm starting Watkins because I must, but I'm not confident.

Debating FJax over Mason. Argh

Same... Idk what to do

Same exact boat here. Right now I have Mason in but I'm really tempted to put FJax in if he's active.

Same. He's not being allowed to play unless he's back, way too easy to aggravate that injury. I expect him to get more touches than people are expecting.

 

[Archer]

with Watkins active, think he's a decoy or plays regular snaps???

 

[NajehHejan]

Mason has a tough matchup and there is still the risk of the three headed rbbc. I'm going Fjax. He's a tough dude, if he doesn't have an early setback, I say he gets at least half the touches. Good luck gents.

[Rubi]

If his pads are on I'm starting him. Even with "limited" action he should get some passes thrown his way and maybe a goal line look or two.

Given other options this week that's good enough for me.

 

[NREC34]

I guess I'll play Fred over Martellus Bennett in my flex. At least I'm assured he's active. Injuries and byes are killing my team this week.

 

[jdubs952]

My only other option is Wheaton vs bad jets secondary. Damn. I'm conflicted.

 

[Clorox]

Go figure - my dilemma is Watkins or Mason. I have Mason in now but may switch it. Mason feels safer but that Rbbc makes my head hurt.

Same, Fred over Sankey.

I have the same dilemma. Watkins looked good in one clip of pregame warmups. And Mason has a tough matchup

My opponent took a -3 with Dalton so I feel like I can roll the dice with Watkins. Maybe he will catch a short TD and I don't expect Mason to score.

 

[Slapdash]

Watkins is a stud. You always start them if they're in.

 

[Don't Noonan]

Going with Freddy over Sproles in PPR

 

[billmatic]

Debating between FJax and Lamar. Both active, both likely limited, both with crappy matchups.

 

[Dizzy]

Playing Freddie over Joique Bell.

I stopped questioning this guy three years ago... he may play to forty.

I disagree with Dr. Jene here. Fred Jackson is an absolute freak of nature that routinely comes back from bad injuries way ahead of schedule. If he's playing, he'll get close to his typical workload.

I expect Sammy to be much more limited and a high risk of re-injury.

 

[Team Smokin']

Risky or not, I have both Sammy & Freddy starting in one league. Sounds nuts. Could have played M Bryant at WR, but my RB choices with Foster on bye was crap. So, it's Freddy!
