thenorthremembers Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) I picked up Josh Gordon in both of my leagues awhile back as a late season store. I've generally been using Rishard Mattews as my flex, but with him being out I've had to use Kenny Stills. The question that is haunting me this week is this, if Matthews is out again this week do I dare start Gordon over Stills? I've already locked up a playoff spot, but in this particular league a win would guarantee me a 1st round bye. Wondering if anyone here would take the risk?

He was drafted in all 4 of my leagues by someone, and he is now starting this week. I think he'll be decent right out the gate. The guy was playing high and drunk all the while still whooping ass.

Theshallowcross Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I am not one who believes in Gordon. At least not initially. The guy hasn't played a meaningful snap since 2014 so I expect he will have to knock the proverbial rust off. It also doesn't help he is up against a top 6 pass defense (DVOA) and some excellent corners (Verrett/Heyward/Flowers) on the road. Your decision but I would start Matthews.

Had a serious amount of targets and came away with close to 13 points. Kinda tough Still had a huge day with over twenty points but still won my game.

I kept telling him to put Gordon in his flex, he decided otherwise and went with Ekeler instead. He regrets the decision and the result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the same dilemma this week, 2nd place overall and no bye in our league. I think Ill let it roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he finished in the 5th seed, our 10 man league has a weird set-up when it comes to the play-off brackets. The top 3 seeds all get a bye this week. I finished third, would've finished 1st if Wentz didn't throw that last INT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 I finished 1st in my low money ten team league, which has a bye and 2nd in my 12 team big money league no bye. Hate not having a bye in that league, doesnt really pay to finish 1st or 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
