Excuse the late start. The weather forced the Eagles to move up practice today, which forced the chat to be pushed back. Next time, Chip Kelly will check with the fantasy football staff before jostling us around.
As always, Eagles predictions will be posted. If there's a lull in the answers, it's because I'm transcribing tape.
adams, benjamin, colston, brown ... adams has a nice matchup (vs. detroit) and is coming off a 9-target week ... good luck with whomever you choose
i have peyton at No. 9 and bradford at No. 12 ... so i'd lean toward manning simply because he has more reliable weapons
well, i also played that merry-go-round with eli and philip rivers ... when i get have two second tier QBs, i try to just pick the right guy ... it's not optimal, but having a second-tier QB usually means I'm stronger elsewhere ... i'd be reluctant to trade unless i was getting back an RB1 or WR1 ... not sure if that makes sense, but that's what i've been doing in my one league and, at 7-2, it happens to be working out this year
i haven't seen today's injury reports, but i briefly saw agholor in the locker room and he was moving OK ... he said he was feeling OK, but when asked about his availability for sunday, he simply said to check with the coaches ... chip's due to address the media at 5p ... if i had to set my lineup today, i'd play agholor over brown
lafell, for sure ... then maclin and reed ... sneed would be fourth ... i'd move bryant into the top-3 if roethlisberger plays
eagles predictions? ... i have the eagles, 24-20
mccoy, for sure ... rodgers over clay ... whichever way you go, i wouldn't recommend playing two bills unless it was jim kelly and thurman thomas
some random names, without knowing who's available: antonio andrews, james white, karlos williams, jay ajayi
bradford ... maybe palmer if the game wasn't in seattle
boy, that's tough ... i'd rather have tannehill against the cowboys than romo in his first game back at miami ... but then i'd drop tannehill and pick up romo as soon as possible and keep eli as my backup ... interesting dilemma
no problem with langford ... i did tell someone (i think it was last week) to play somebody ahead of tyler eifert, so i'm sorry about that ... been pissing me off all week
murray and langford this week; though keep an eye on forte
... i think lacy and white are about the same (both need an injury to become more relevant), so i'd just as soon keep lacy
i'd say this is it for langford, forte seems close to getting back
riddick in a PPR, though not much more than a flex
three guys had 84 yards (murray had 83) and a winner was picked at random ... fella who teaches over at paulsboro high
nah, RB3s ... too unpredictable
AP and cooper ... then ingram and megatron ... good luck
love the handle ... used to big at lighthouse pointe ... david cobb (tenn.) is the only one who comes to mind ... anyone have any others? ... we're not talking about the todd gurleys of the world, i assume
sorry about that ... some sort of technical issue ... i have time for just a few more and the queue is full
i'd play matthews against the eagles or tavon against the bears
i have matthews 17, diggs 21 and landry 22 ... so i'd play matthews
it's risky, but
i'd play winston ... good luck
cooper ... he should start every week
i'd play lafell and snead ... and i'll have another R&R since you're pouring
i have 'em diggs, landry and cooks
OK, folks ... thanks for hanging in there this week ... see you next thursday at noon, mother nature permitting ... the following week is thanksgiving, so i'm going to take a straw vote next week to see when would be the better day for a chat (weds. or thurs.) ... enjoy week 10
