SweetLee83 Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 Pryor is also an option for me...right now I'm leaning Smith I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 That's funny. I'm not a fantasy guy, but I would take Flacco. Green Bay doesn't have much D and I think they score enough to keep the pedal down. I know he hasn't done much, but Rice is back and I think they have righted the ship.

CrazyCarl40 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I'd probably go Russell Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Take Wilson. You need an option for more than just this week and Wilson is the best of that group. Does anyone really think Matt Ryan will be a viable option at QB after the bye with a half-dead Roddy White and Harry Douglas as his WR's? Yeah, he gets Steven Jackson back and still has Tony Gonzalez, but he's not a top 10 option every week on lock like he was when he had Julio. Take away Julio's one-handed catch from Monday night alone and Matt Ryan's fantasy numbers are middle of the pack. With Wilson and Ryan, you can play the matchups going forward. Or maybe take a look around your league for a trade, I'm sure there's a buy-low candidate at QB you can get. Tom Brady might be someone to look at with Gronk coming back.

Right now, Wilson 22nd in total points scored in my league for QBs. Matt Ryan is 4th. Alex Smith is 11th. However, you bring up a great point about Ryan with Jones now out, I can't believe I didn't consider that. My worry with Wilson is they are a run heavy team and don't really pass a lot. Harvin back would help but thats still a few weeks away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really think Wilson will be outside of the top 20 when the season is over? He's too good for that. Yeah, he's in a run-first offense, but he still gets points. And those handful of points he gets by being able to run for yardage can be very valuable. Even a crappy QB like Terrelle Pryor can have really good fantasy days because he can run. It's sort of an insurance policy if the guy has a bad day throwing. Matt Ryan, meanwhile, will have days where he can't do anything. I imagine a few 2 or 3-INT type days going forward, some not even his fault. I'm not saying he's a guy you permanently bench but if he has a bad matchup, you start Wilson.
