Missed out on C West but was able to grab Hightower and Antone Smith. I now have 3 TB running backs on my team lol

 

I got Howard back, and picked up West and Hightower because fuck it.

 

Charcandrick West or Derrick Henry?

Edit: or Tim Hightower

 

I picked up West and Smith. I may have to start both.

 

Missed out on C West in both leagues though i'm not surprised I think I had last priority in both lol. Didn't necessarily need him in one league, but in my other one all my RB's are injured or on bye so I had to grab two starters, got Smith from the Bucs and Hightower

Asiata is still available though, kind of waiting to see if McKinnon is going to play or not, you think it's better if McKinnon is out to grab Asiata and play him over Smith?

 

Home game against the Lions? I'd roll with Asiata if McKinnon is out

 

Carr or Stafford this week?

 

Here's one you won't get anywhere else:

Foles vs JAX
or
Simein @ OAK

(2QB league with Brady on bye)

 

Strategery baybeee

 

I have Eifert and Miller - both on their bye - and just got offered Delanie Walker for Miller straight up. No reason not to take that right? It lets me fill my lineup hole without giving up a bench spot, and honestly may be an upgrade now that Cutler is playing again

 

I definitely would

 

Enunwa or Terrance West for my FLEX?

 

West, Pitt's run D is awful

 

Okay...just got offered this trade in .5 PPR

I get:
Greg Olsen

I give:
Lagarrette Blount


I offered him Marvin Jones because I'm stacked at WR moreso than RB. But I have Martellus as my TE who is on a bye and hasn't been producing as much snce Gronk got 100%. We start two RB, two WR, and a W/R/T Flex.

My other RB's are Demarco Murray (Questionable), Spencer Ware (concussion protocol), Isiah Crowell, and Duke Johnson Jr, also have Dion Lewis in my IR slot ready to come back soon.

I've been starting 3 RB at times this year, but my WR's are Julio Jones, Brandin Cooks, Amari Cooper, Marvin Jones Jr, and Chris Hogan, so I should be fine at Flex going forward if DeMarco and Ware are healthy.


Do I do this deal? I really need it more for htis week than anything else, because my D is on bye, don't want to drop them, but don't have another slot to drop because Martellus is also on bye and I picked up a scrap heap TE for the week. But Olsen SHOULD be enough of an upgrade on Martellus going forward, I'm just worried about my RB depth.

 

Halp me I'm an indecisive wuss

 

Definitely do it. I'll take Walker ROS anyway

 

on the surface, I like it. you can't use Blount anyways this week since hes on a bye.

 

Yeah I was trying to dump Miller in my since vetoed Bell/Tate/Henry for Ware/Enunwa/Eifert deal but he stuck on Eifert. I'm hoping that Ware clears protocol and I can circle back on that deal with Walker instead of Eifert

 

CMike or C West?

 

If Ware isn't playing I'd definitely go West

 

1PPR
0.5 Point Per Completion for QB's

Starting lineup as of now

QB: Derek Carr
WR: Kenny Britt
WR: Doug Baldwin
WR: Jordan Matthews
RB: Ezekiel Elliot
RB: Carlos Hyde
TE: Zach Ertz
Flex: Darren Sproles
K: Mason Crosby
DEF: Dallas (I've pretty much just been streaming any defense playing against Cleveland all year)

Bench

QB: Russell Wilson
WR: Alshon Jefferey
WR: Cordarelle Patterson
RB: Jonathan Stewart
RB: Duke Johnson Jr.
RB: Dion Lewis

Got a couple of questions about this week if anyone would oblige me.

1. Am I crazy for starting Sproles over Stewart?
2. Anyone got any suggestions on a trade I could make for someone in need of a running back for a better TE?
3. With the 0.5 Point Per Completion for QB's is starting Carr against Denver a better play than Wilson against Buffalo?

 

Had to drop Jaquizz for a defense this week, hopefully I don't regret that.

 

Hurns @ KC or Beasley @ Cle

Standard scoring

 

Pick 1 standard scoring
Antone Smith vs ATL
Ty Montgomery vs Ind
Latavius Murray vs Den

 

I'd go with Murray. Denver has the best pass defense in the league, but have been exposed against the run. OAK is a pass heavy team but might have to lean on Murray this week to open up passing lanes or get the ball in the endzone.
