Members_Only_76 7,293 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Seems like his job is solid at least early downs and goaline, and he's looking great IMO. So I think I'll hold vs. chasing situations yet TBD. Probably benching this weekend (and tough matchups). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JSA2422 1,604 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 He looks completely fine to me - the only negative is Mack looked good too and if he's in deed the future there's no reason not to get him involved but he's not replacing Gore outside of an injury. I'm hoping for a 15+ day this first month and will try to shop but his projections and the usual anti old blurbs don't help his value in casual leagues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZChronicNebula 2,059 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 At this rate, if you don't own him you mine as well trade for. Seems like his value is pennies right now. Offer some hype for a proven commodity, easy win. They aren't rushing Luck back which means he'll be 100% once he returns. Their schedule is easier than last season and their defense is arguably better (Vontae Davis was slowing down anyway, 98th rating Pro Football Focus cornerback grading). Now they're younger, it will take some time for the rookies to get a hang of things. And Gore hasn't lost a step. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gufomel 873 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) Are you starting Gore this week? I'm debating him or Hopkins at FLEX, non-PPR. Never thought I'd start him over Hopkins, but Hopkins has a tough match up @ NE. Gore has a very favorable match up. Still having trouble pulling the trigger on that though.

Holben 981 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I personally don't think Frank Gore is a good starting fantasy RB unless in real deep leagues. He's sitting on my bench either as a bye week fill-in or in case of injury. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fearfulways 145 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 How do you feel with him as an RB2 for ROS if you're stacked at WR and have Gronk? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would feel great about it. I'm in the same boat in a 14 team league, I have Rodgers, Diggs, Fitz, AJ Green, Hunt, Gore/Carson, Witten... I don't need Gore to do anything special, just his typical production is solid enough with the rest of my roster. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll have Michael Thomas, Hopkins, Fitz with Gronk + McCoy in a 12 team PPR. I'm a Colts fan too so that makes it even sweeter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's sitting on my bench either as a bye week fill-in or in case of injury. I agree, and he's riding my bench for the same purpose...less panic if I lose one of my top 3 backs. That said, he's currently ranked 23rd in my 1/2 PPR league, so that technically makes him an RB2 so far. Granted his ranking is boosted by TDs in two games so far, but I believe he has at least a safe Flex floor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyman75 5,097 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 What are you guys thinking for Gore this weekend. In my league, San Fran is giving up the 7th most points to RBs. He seems like a safe back to roll out there for this bye week. Maybe 75-80 total yards and 2-3 receptions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mortman212 324 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I think he is a safe 10-12 points this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kdpat15 258 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 agreed...I feel comfortable with Gore as high end rb2/great flex play this week Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mvttchew 596 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) Much like all of you, I have him on my team. He's a bye week filler and sitting on my bench for now, but one thing that concerns me is how the Colts limit his usage. I was watching the game last week and remember an announcer saying that because of his age, they're limiting his touches. This is pretty obvious and seems to be the case. Are you guys concerned at all with this or you guys already knew that this would be the case? EDIT - actually 2/4 games were blow outs and the Colts were behind double digits. And the one game that was competitive with the Browns, he had 25 touches. This leaves the 16-13 game against the Cards where he amassed 14 touches. Guess I just answered my own question. Carry oon lol. Edited October 4, 2017 by mvttchew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
metalmat 1,026 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) i am actually trotting him out over joe mixon this week. I'm not expecting much but it's a good matchup and ..... a REVENGE game .... Edited October 4, 2017 by metalmat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevekerr01 109 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 frank gore vs titans? thoughts on his chances, still getting good carries and role in passing game still there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
naholmes 22 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Frank gore is being phased out of the offense. At best he's a between the 20s grinder. They want to get Mack involved and giving red zone carries to Turbin as well. Very little upside but still might have some value during bye weeks or in case Mack gets hurt again.

Vendetta 528 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 He's been a solid ~10 points for me in 0.5 ppr ever since Brisket took over. His ceiling is his floor, but you could do worse at RB2/FLEX. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jason497 296 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Colts have defeated Titans 16 of the last 17 times. Granted that goes back to the Peyton Manning era but there could be some rare positive game script this week if Cassel starts or Mariota struggles again. Frank Gore should get you those safe 10-15 points again this week like usual. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think his arrow is pointing up - should get GL carries, and maybe he even gets third-down snaps (not sure how Mack is as a pass protector, but rookies typically struggle at that and Gore is still one of the best).

The_Truth_Returns 447 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Reports say 2 teams reached out to the Colts interested in Gore. Guessing its between the Chiefs, Seahawks, and Redskins. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
