Official Fanduel/DK/others daily fantasy thread - Page 37

cdub6238 · 11-02-2014, 10:25 PM

had a really nice LU going...but then my WRs laid eggs...

18.5 or so from Teddy B at 5.9k...
over 20 from Ellington...
14 from McCoy wasnt bad..
double digits from Cundiff at min price...

then, Hawkins as a deep target against bad secondary does crap...and week 3 of Mike Wallace doing not nothing...

gonna end up with close to 120 or so nd nothing to show for it

same on DK

before kickoff i was looking at 103FP...with Antonio Brown, TY Hilton and Dwayne Allen left...

and as someone said, Brown not doing jack as previous weeks

ssbledsoe · 11-02-2014, 10:26 PM

Well, there were only a few QB's that were worth a damn this week (from a fantasy perspective): Tannehill, Brady, and Peyton. I actually liked the Tannehill option and went with him in one lineup. However, I idiotically listened to the "experts" on TV and talked myself out of using him extensively...and used Kaep instead. Kaep was heavily liked by many of the "fantasy experts" that I use to get other information (ownership percentages, etc).

Seeing one team dominate a team twice in a single season is like catching a unicorn. I deserve the losses for going back to the same well twice. I'll be sure to learn my darn lesson this time.

I'm not doing bad so far this weekend, but obviously have plenty of football remaining. A couple great games from Beckham, Luck, and Donte Moncrief would save my bacon on FD (have half my entry fees covered right now and Monday night could get me back to neutral or even slightly positive).

I'm sitting very pretty on DK right now as I'm cashing in 5 of 7 contests. I have Antonio Brown going now, and I have a WR spot with Rueben Randle right now... I'm trying to decide if I want to bail on him and go with Moncrief or Beckham. Anyone care to weigh in on dumping Randle? I'm afraid Vontae will get stuck on Randle and get no points. However Beckham could draw Davis too, or I could run with Moncrief and he get no targets...

ninjacookies · 11-02-2014, 11:12 PM

And.....brown delivers! Damn this offense...might have to hop on the Ben bus this sunday, but knowing my luck, that's when it derails...

Ajax1723 · 11-02-2014, 11:25 PM

Thank you Brown.....also had Big Ben, Brown, Steelers D and the Kicker in my primetime league......hopefully worst case I can cash there.

GoldStandard000 · 11-02-2014, 11:52 PM

Had Nick Foles on my team today, so yeah.....

Still have 95.66 at the moment, and I still have TY Hilton tomorrow. Probably won't win much this week if I do at all.

ninjacookies · 11-03-2014, 12:05 AM

Well Brown sort of saved my chances. 124 points heading into tomorrow with Donnell and TY Left.

So I guess the winning formula from last 2 weeks was: Ben + Bryant + Antonio + ____insert arbitrary lineup here___

cromartie3145 · 11-03-2014, 12:08 AM

Shocked that Ben just threw 6 tds. Equally shocked that Brown only had 1 TD when Ben threw 6...

chitownbears22 · 11-03-2014, 12:08 AM

Big Ben will be 25% owned in GPP next week. Plays the Jets

Then you realize he'll probably be repriced at $10,000+, right under Brady.

I think he will be about $9500. He has a great matchup. I will avoid, already have a couple lineups in mind. Foles and Rivers killed me this week. And Bryant was the only WR that produced.

ninjacookies · 11-03-2014, 12:27 AM

I need to stop looking at the top 10 lineups on tourneys. The 'what if's' 'god I'm an idiot' scenarios that run through my head.

BlueSunday1287 · 11-03-2014, 12:28 AM

Looks like my account is about to hit zero on FanDuel, I have a chance of cashing in one possibly. It was a fun 9 weeks! I only played small dollar tournaments for the simple thrill of it. My wife and I recently found out we're expecting our first child so I won't be making any more deposits for the time being.

Good Luck Fellas!

Well if you don't deposit you can't go the PB Mansion

Not to mention if you're stacking Bryant his price will shoot up as well.

Definitely not a good play anymore...he'll be right up there with Lafell. Rather play guys like Boldin/Sanu/Evans, etc.

chitownbears22 · 11-03-2014, 12:44 AM

Ryan/Julio is something I am looking at closely. If the combo price is below 15,500 I will bite.

I won't be surprised if he's reproved well under $10k on DK. It looks like they set their prices by the end of Sunday's 4PM games.
I don't care the price. I want SOME exposure to the QB playing the NYJ. The bare minimum floor was set at 200 yards and 2 TD's (12 points) by Alex "underneath/safe route" Smith. Any competent passing attack should easily get 300 and 3 (24 points). By competent I mean a WR with a pulse, 2 hands, and runs a 4.8 40, and a QB that can throw a regulation NFL ball more than 15 yards in the air. This PIT passing OFF should hang 4 or 5 passing TD's on the NYJ. Rapelisberger will be all over my cash games next week.

chitownbears22 · 11-03-2014, 12:46 AM

Prices just released for FD. 15,800 for Ryan/Julio. Ben/Bryant 14,400

armyatc22 · 11-03-2014, 12:52 AM

How does this look for FD

Big Ben
L. Bell
R. Hillman
M. Bryant
Sanu
Landry
Bennett
Cundiff
Steelers

If Ben is anywhere in the 8x or low 9k range, consider me a buyer.

edit: looks like that may be the case. I'm in!

troygoesdeep · 11-03-2014, 12:55 AM

The price on Big Ben will definitely go up

If you lock in now do you still get him for this price or have to re work your team if it goes up...say im at $0 left and they bump him up $500....What happens??

troygoesdeep · 11-03-2014, 01:00 AM

My knowledge of it isn't very high to be honest. So I'm honestly not sure? I do more sports betting than this but downloaded it this week to try it out. Don't like it as much :/ as I do betting.

I don't think the prices lower or raise once they're set. I've seen guys like Hill this week still be dirt cheap even after it's found out they got the starting gig. It really doesnt affect fanduel in any way, since we're not playing against the house...but against each other.

That is correct. Once the prices are released they are final. Big Ben will be a 9500-10000 QB the following week against Tennessee. I would not be surprised to see him hit the 20-25% mark for the Sunday Millions GPP next week. His price warrants the play, the Jets are just god awful.
