So you went through your draft. You made a trade or two, picked up a guy off the waiver wire. But then before everything went live ... something didn't feel right. Maybe you had a player who was a game-time decision. Or there was a matchup that wasn't in your favor. Whatever the reason, you decided it was time to make a bold choice. You know what they say ... No Guts, No Glory. So this column is for you. Every week here, we'll salute the outside-the-box thinking that was rewarded with big fantasy production. Fortune favors the bold, so here's to you. We sent out the call early Monday morning, and here's Pete Alonso Jersey what you came back with. Congratulations to those of you who are looking at a Week 5 win! Forget the Boobie! Went with Rawls! Crushed my league! Justin MacDonald (@jmac_donald) With sidelined for the second straight week, RB drew the start for the . We saw him garner over 100 yards on 16 carries after Lynch left Week 3 early, but last week against the , the undrafted rookie struggled to produce. So fantasy owners were left with a tough choice: Start Rawls and hope for the best against a defense that hadn't allowed a rushing TD entering Week 5, or go with another question mark running back like or Lenny Dykstra Jersey . Welp, we all know how that worked out. Rawls posted over 22 fantasy points in standard leagues with a 169-yard, one-touchdown game against the . He averaged 7.3 ypc and, while it may have taken a certain amount of guts to slot him into your lineup, we're all about going big or going home. And thanks to Rawls, you went big!For the second straight game, running back was the biggest fantasy contributor out of the Tenne see backfield. He's now scored double-digit fantasy points in two consecutive games and is owned in just 1.4 percent of NFL.com leagues. While it was more of an even split in terms of carries in Week 5 between , and Andrews, the latter has led the group with 23 touches in the ' last two games and Robinson Cano Jersey seems to be emerging as a viable flex in fantasy leagues, even if he's just getting goal-line work going forward. Our waiver wire guy, Alex Gelhar, last week as a speculative add, but if you were forced to make a bold move and start him in Week 5, it surely paid off. Im the Commish of my League, Guy in my League benched A. Rod in favor of J. McCown...... E.G. Kopf (@EGKopf) While we don't condone this type of behavior, it's hard to argue against the call on Monday morning. McCown ended up as the highest scoring player in fantasy when Sunday came to a close and has been on fire for the last three games. Now, we can understand if you had to stream McCown to fill in for someone like the injured or maybe you've been playing the matchups in the weeks since went down, but to start the signal-caller over Aaron freakin' Rodgers just because, well then you might need to get your head examined. Or maybe you just have in insane amount of guts. I mean, why settle for Rodgers' measly 15.54 fantasy points when you could have McCown's 35.48? That'll win your week. starting Matt Jones in my FLEX to get po sibly-deciding 6 Pts for my team Matt Lindsay (@mattlindsay44) A few weeks ago, we wouldn't have said that this move really took any Jason Vargas Jersey guts. Jones looked like he was running away with the lead role in the Washington backfield after a Week 2 breakout game. Alas, he's slipped back into a full blown committee rotation along with and . So heading into Week 5, Morris and Thompson were sort of desperation flex plays, but for the most part we Zack Wheeler Jersey were recommending for fantasy owners to steer clear of this backfield entirely, even in what looked like a favorable RB matchup against Atlanta. So of course, Jones tallies a 1.8 ypc average on 11 rush attempts but sees three red zone touches and takes one into the paint. The volume wasn't there. Neither were the yardage totals. But if you only needed approximately six points to boost your squad to a win like this guy did, well then Jones hooked it up. Definitely a gutsy move after the way he had performed the last few weeks. Matt Franciscovich is an a sociate fantasy editor at NFL.com. He lately.
