My diabolical plan re: Kelvin Benjamin
Posted on 10/18/14 at 10:51 am

I talked about this a bit yesterday in a different thread but want to get some more opinions.
Guy I'm playing has Cam Newton as his big point scorer this week.
I have Olsen as my starting TE and Benjamin on my bench bc I start DT88 and Cobb
If Benjamin is healthy should I bench Cobb for Benjamin so that every time Cam throws a TD it's probably gonna go to either my TE or WR? It's basically a way to cancel out Cam points through the air.
Thoughts?

Benji should be in your flex regardless

You realize if you do that Cam will have 3 rushing tds, right?

I have Ellington in my flex. Start J Charles and L Bell
And yea I know Cam is gonna get his rushing points but this would at least mitigate any passing points

What happens if Cam/Kelvin have a bad game and Cobb goes for 7-120-2? Don't overthink it. Start Cobb.

Then Cam doesn't get points either

Cam can have a bad game and still score
220 pass yards, 1 TD, 1 INT
1 rush TD on 22 rush yards.
This equals 18 points.

You're using 2 players to cancel out 1 player.
You're over thinking. Just play who you think gets the most points for you.

Sounds like the opposite of what you should do. Cam can score a lot of points that don't involve Benjamin or Olsen, especially since he is essentially their starting HB. However, Every single point scored by Olsen or Benjamin will be somewhat cancelled out by Cam being on your opponents team. Start Cobb.

If you feel that Benjamin will score more points than Cobb then start him, if not go Cobb. I personally think it's a toss up on who's the better start this week so I'd probably go Benjamin but I have Benjamin on my team so I'm probably just being a homer.

If the rest of your team is superior to the rest of his team then I think this is a solid strategy. Or you could just go with playing your players that you think have the best chance of scoring the most points.

Cobb can just as easily offset Cam's performance. If Cam does bad though, KB will also do bad. Do you get this yet?

Go with whatever players you think gives you the most points. Don't worry about who's on the other team.

Any update on the packers cornerbacks? I saw a thread on here yesterday saying both may be out
Posted on 10/18/14 at 3:01 pm to wildtigercat93
How do you know that? The guy has Thomas and Cobb. He never mentioned his flex or if his league has one.
Posted on 10/18/14 at 3:04 pm to Vicks Kennel Club
Ive done this before... It sounds better than it actually works but Id play KB over Cobb anyway

The frick? 4 team league?
Posted on 10/18/14 at 4:25 pm to AmosMosesAndTwins
Seriously? Charles in the first, Bell in the 2nd, Ellington in the third. Not that hard to figure out. You can get that in a 12 team league.

Probably not because he has DT88 and Cobb.
