I need a back up QB. Available are Flacco, Smith, Osweiler and Bradford. What do you think? Team #1 (No PPR, 12 Teams): 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 FLEX, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF Passing: 6 pts/TD, 1 pt/25 yds, Rushing & Receiving: 6 pts/TD, 1 pt/10 yds
The Bye week is 9 - all of the above was clear. I had RGIII, thinking that this might be the year for him and I had two months to evaluate. But he settled that for me and I suspect if there are injuries, the ones now available will disappear.
Flacco plays CLE and Osweiler faces JAX. I actually like them both. I live in Colorado and have long been a Bronco fan. So I had hoped we would keep him. I also kind of like Flacco. But I try to separate my likes from what will most help my team. My QB in that league is Luck, and while he really was a performer this week, I need to cover not just week 10, but I prefer to have someone that I think will give me a chance if he goes down. That's why I want to do this sooner than later.
I had RG3 in several leagues. I dropped him in favor of Flacco. Like his matchup next week against Cleveland. The Browns are hideous.
I'd go with Osweiler since he has more weapons... but Flacco is a fine choice as well and his WR Core could develop nicely in the second half of the season.
