Finley for GB or Julius Thomas Denver?
Denver has Oakland Green Bay at Cincy
My opponent has Manning so anything to J.T. would count for him too!
Thomas. Finley is a bum, but Thomas may block more with Clady out
Finley isn't a bum. Settle down haterade. He has scored well in two games and that offense is running on all cylinders at the moment. Then again, so is Denver's. Looking at it on paper, play Thomas. Only concern is we don't know how big of an impact it will be for Denver's offense losing their LT for the year.
Thomas. Finley has talent but is a clown. One week he's amazing next he is dropping passes
I chose Thomas hope it works out!
I hope it works out too. Production wise, the differences between them are nominal (as expected through 2 games), with Thomas having a slight edge given his week 1 performance. As JT pointed out, how they end up using him henceforth will be signifcant. Although Finley has been comparably productive, with a praiseworthy camp and preseason, I'd still like to see a larger sample size before giving him the nod on a more consistent basis (considering his history).
Simply put, just look for volume and play the matchups. Take a guy like Jordan Cameron who has similar output in terms of points, but has less reliance on scores to account for the difference (14 receptions on 20 targets).
In terms of the matchups, the Raiders defense is slightly more suscetpbile to the tight end in the redzone.
Good luck.
I was trying to base it on the defense they're playing. I hope I chose correctly
