Okay, so, today’s headache, should I start Mostert or Edmonds? This whole fantasy football thing, it’s fun, but man, these decisions! I spent a good chunk of the morning just staring at my lineup, seriously. I started by just going through my usual routine, checking out what the “experts” are saying.
First thing I did was hit up a bunch of fantasy football sites. You know, the usual, I typed in “Mostert or Edmonds week 18” and my screen filled with a bunch of articles and forum posts. Everyone has an opinion, right? I skimmed through some articles. There was a lot of analysis about Mostert, saying he is “Droppable.” That gave me a pause, to be honest. One thing is for sure, they say to pick a running back with your first pick. I did not do that, and this is where I’m at right now, choosing between Mostert and Edmonds. Should I pick a Wide Receiver (WR) or a Running Back (RB)? I just did not know which one to pick.
Then I tried to find some statistics, to make it look like I’m doing some real deep research, haha. I jumped onto a site that offers recommendations from fantasy football experts. There are so many opinions! I saw that one of the sites mentioned: “Still trying to decide between Mostert and Edmonds? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy.” Another mentioned the projections, but it was all jargon to me. A bunch of stuff about PPR this and standard deviation that, honestly, it just confused me more.
After that, I figured I’d check out some videos, see if anyone made a simple breakdown. Found a couple of guys debating it, but they were throwing around so many terms like “upside” and “floor” that I got lost. They were discussing Week 10, Week 11, and other player’s names like Jaylen Waddle, and Jonnu Smith. I just wanted to know about Mostert and Edmonds!
I even looked at injury reports. I discovered that Aaron Jones is injured, but he’s still expected to suit up. But what about Mostert and Edmonds? The expert said to start both of them, but I can only start one of them!
- Mostert: Some say he’s droppable, some say he’s a fantasy football start. High risk, high reward kind of guy. But it seems that he is in good shape.
- Edmonds: More consistent, maybe? But does he have that “boom” potential? Also seems to be in good shape according to some of the articles I read.
Here’s what I gathered:
So, after all that, guess what? I still don’t know! I flipped a coin, seriously. Heads for Mostert, tails for Edmonds. It landed on Mostert. I stared at the coin for a good minute, second-guessing myself. In the end, I went with my gut and picked Mostert. I don’t know, something about his big-play ability, it just called to me. We’ll see how it goes. Maybe I’ll be celebrating, maybe I’ll be face-palming. That’s fantasy football for you, a total rollercoaster. Hopefully, my coin flip and my gut feeling were right.
Anyway, that’s my story. I will update you all on how Mostert did. Wish me luck!
