For my Flex in PPR:

James White, Tim Hightower, Sterling Shephard, Rishard Matthews, or Wendell Smallwood.


Also riding all the hype trains and picked up Sammy Watkins and Peterson this week

 

Riding a nice win streak and this is an important week. Pick 2, standard:

Gore
Ware
Rawls

Don't trust Ware or Gore 100% this week..meh

 

Any of them should be fine. Gore and Rawls is what I'd lean towards. Pittsburgh run D isn't too great

 

Trade proposal:

Get: demariyus thomas
Trade: latavius Murray

Thoughts?

 

Without knowing the rest of your roster, I'd say keep Murray.

 

Bell, Ware, Booker, Rawls

 

I would say make that trade

 

Yeah my receivers are Hopkins, Moncreif, Cobb, Tyrell Williams, golden tate, and I just picked up Tyler Boyd. So pretty hit and miss squad, and I have to win this week to make the playoffs. So I'm just trying to make a push. Haha

 

Smith and Ertz. They're getting consistent targets

Matthews

 

That's what I was thinking. I'm guessing still go with Matthews even with Thielen available (Diggs is out)?

 

I am in the same boat and am replacing Diggs with Matthews

That said, I am considering starting Thielen in the flex. Other choices are Dion Lewis, James White and Dontrelle Inman

 

anyone else benching Hilton with Luck out? I have Miller, forte, Rawls, Cooper, and Adams in right now. No luck scares me. Standard scoring.

 

Yeah I am, starting Kelvin Benjamin instead

 

0.5 PPR super flex league...any reason you guys think I should move my lineup around? Currently have:

QB: Brees
RB: D. Johnson, Ware
WR: Cooks, ARob
TE: Eifert
Flex: Stafford
K: Hopkins
D: Cardinals (yuck)

Bench options: Gore, Landry, Meredith, Coleman, Dion Lewis

 

I would look into getting another D for the week. Dropping maybe Coleman or Meredith because Browns are the Browns and Bears have Matt Barkley starting. I picked up Titans D for the week in place of AZ. Also, depending on how your league scores, Gore over Stafford might be a potential move...

 

Also Mariota vs Russel? I'm leaning towards Russel because TB has a somewhat competent offense and that game should be closer than Ten vs Chi...same idea has me hesitant to play Rishard.

Also, I need a tight end. Currently have Cameron Brate playing and here's who's available (fuck me for thinking RG3/Barnidge would be the next TB/Gronk)

 

Standard scoring outside the 0.5 PPR. 10 yards per point and 6 for rushing/receiving TDs, 25 passing yards per point and 4 points for passing TDs.

The defense market is bare. Saints, Packers, Steelers

 

steelers. I would 100% take Steelers. Yeah, I expect a bunch from Gore, but Luck is out. I'd be hesitant to play Stafford too based off the Vikings flat out destroying Carson Palmer last week.



also not sure if my friend was drunk but he offered me Steve Smith and Cam Newton for David Johnson

 

I would not give David Johnson for those two honestly lol

 

exactly lol didn't even consider it

 

also idk if this is stupid but I wanna drop Gostkowski for like, Josh Lambo or Janikowski. Pats offense is just too damn efficient

 

Lambo has been money. Gostkowski is a good kicker, but he's not kicking a ton of FGs and Lambo is

 

This year in FF I learned that while my projections are sometimes on point, I should just take the easy answer sometimes because I've screwed myself overthinking certain waiver moves and trying to be bold and confident about them.

I tried to beat people to the punch and bid on players before they had their breakouts, but a lot of the time I was either flat wrong, or right but didnt wait long enough to drop them so they went off right after I did. And ended up probably hurting more than helping.

 

Nuke Hopkins vSD
Doug Baldwin @TB
Michael Crabtree vCAR
Tyreek Hill @DEN

Pick 2. PPR.

 

Got 88 points from my four players today so yeah I'm in pretty good shape
