Standard league. Good move for me right?

Do I start Matthews over E.Sanders this week?

Obviously depends on need, but I like Forsett better. I had a strict no Eagles policy this year. Don't see anyone on that team as a viable consistent starter.

I wouldn't. Carolina is a tough match up, but they are starting two rookie corners.

Check the tape on rookie QBs throwing to WR and TE for fantasy purposes

Outlook is dismal to say the least

Why on earth do you even need to ask if it was a good move? Forsett shouldn't be owned in any league

Don't listen to tots. He should be owned in all leagues. Just not starting.

This is not a good mindset. Bad teams will have fantasy studs on them.

Forsett is definitely worth a roster spot, but I'd rather Matthews.

Matthews was the #18 WR last year, and that offense was shite.


EDIT: I'd start Matthews over Sanders

Hmm

They were 12th in passing offense and Bradford competed 65% of his passes

Now they are starting a rookie QB and Doug Pederson is going the same offense that he ran in KC - 26th in pass attempts and 24th in pass yards ?

Fair enough, I tend to look at stats but based my comment on the eye test. I'd have to believe alot of production came when trailing which can be misleading when looking at a team's year end production.

The change in offensive scheme will definitely lower the pass attempts, but I also believe that Philly will be trailing plenty in games which will lead to increased production that KC missed on.

Also, the drop in pass attempts does not correlate to a drop in Jordan Matthews' production. He's essentially the only reliable target there outside of Ertz..? I'd be shocked if he fell outside of the top 36 at WR. I think he finishes the year as a bottom end WR2 20-24 WR...barring injury

I say Mathews puts up 13 pts in a PPR league and Forsett will put up 6.

Yes...He isn't the starter now and definitely won't be when Dixon returns in a month
