Some things Boras noticed so far on Week 6:
Receiver Deceivers:
Like every decision in fantasy football, I was one week too late.
Brandon Lloyd had a nice run of catches down the stretch this week, but still finished with an uninspiring 7 points on 4 receptions. Ok, it was against the Jets D, but still, it goes to show you what happens when defenses gameplan around you.
And speaking of gameplanning..
Hakeem Nicks - I knew you had it in you! A big fat zero for Nicks against a suspect Lions defense. The league is on notice that Hakeem the Dream is a beast when you let him run free. Don't expect too many more shutouts against him, but do expect a lot more of Manningham and Steve Smith.
Bitches of Waiverly Advice:
How did Boras' waiver recommendations fare?
Alex Smith: 19 points, no turnovers (as predicted, sorta)
Shaun Hill: 9 points and no turnovers before suffering a broken forearm. Don't worry, Stafford's back soon.
Earnest Graham: 0 points, went down with an injury before registering a carry. Nice showing, 0 turnovers!
Danny Amendola: 1 point. 3 catches for 19 yards and a couple of nice kick returns. Not a lot of looks his way...who took all his receptions? Danario Alexander. Did the Rams receiver core come from Canada or something?
Tony Moeaki: 2 points - a season low 2 catches for 21 yards. Dwayne Bowe stole the show with a big game.
Result: If you picked up Alex Smith, you love my shit. Otherwise, my bad. Maybe Nate Washington and Mike Hart will make me look good.
And speaking of Mikes: Keller > Hernandez
My league is PPR so actually Hernandez had half a point more than Keller this week... I still lost by 12 points tho.
ReplyDeleteDamn! Hernandez is going to be a great play going forward. However, check previous post for a trade idea...
