I would not trust Reed. He has burned me too many other times. Otherwise lookS good. If it is ppr I might play Crabtree over tyreek

 

Adams and Inman. Lewis is way more appealing in PPR than standard IMO

 

Third year in a row in the championship, hoping I finally breakthrough but not feeling great about it.

Facing Brady, Rivers, Zeke, Stewart, Nelson, Crabtree, Olsen, Boswell and Chiefs D.

Starting Brees, Stafford, David Johnson, Ware, Cooks, Landry, Eifert, Hopkins and Giants D. Bench options are Gore, ARob, Gabriel, Tyreek, Dion Lewis and Steelers D

 

I appreciate your suggestion! What's your line of thinking? Most people seem to have the other receivers ranked higher. I'm torn now.

 

3rd year in a row for me too. I'm tired of coming in 2nd. Good luck this weekend.

 

Ware seems to get volume so he seems to be a lock. Hopkins and Jeffery are risky but high reward. I know that's tough to trust for a championship game though. Jeffery had a goose egg until the 4th quarter last week but ended up scoring 20 points in PPR. Hopkins had 17 targets last week. I know he has sucked fantasy wise all year because of osweiler but seemed to already have chemistry with Savage. I would look at their matchups too though. How have their opponents been all year against WRs?

I see that you are non PPR. Makes it a little tougher but I still think those two WRs have a slight edge yardage wise. Baldwin can have 0 or 20 points. Thomas is good but Hopkins and Jeffery have higher ceilings.

 

That's a great championship matchup. I think you have a great chance but it will be close.

 

Fair. My opponent has Brady who is going to light up the Jets D, so there's appeal there to start Mitchell to at least make up some points for at least one Brady TD. Ugh. I don't know.

I think I'm leaning more towards Inman, too. I haven't made it to the championship in 3 years. I forgot how nervewracking it is.

 

Okay, you've convinced me. I do agree they both have higher upsides... I'm torn between the risk/reward of these players. Ware is a definite for me at this point, so I'm going to gamble with Hopkins and Jeffery.

 

Haha oh man. I hope it pays off. If not, I'm sorry!!!


Edit, I see that both Hopkins and Jeffery don't have great matchups. Maybe that's why they are ranked so low this week. Tough call. Full disclosure, I've never won a championship in five years of playing but I am winning one this year and am getting second place in two leagues where I should have won the championship (have Bell and Johnson in both leagues...Brady and cousins screwed me)

 

There'll be no hard feelings either way. I wanna roll the dice, so this is perfect. I've been to 3 straight championships and lost. Last year I lost due do that damn AZ Cardinals D/ST.

 

I hate that its Brady vs the Jets and Rivers vs Cleveland while Brees and Stafford have Tampa and Dallas. Those cake matchups for her QBs are what's making me feeling like it will be very, very close.

Definitely a great matchup though. #1 vs #2, I went 12-1, she went 11-2, my only loss was to her in week 4. My team had its lowest total of the year (108) but hers also dropped a huge 146.2 that week on the back of Crabtree's 3 TD game.

 

Sounds like a fitting championship. Good luck!

 

Pick 2 .5ppr for my chip:

Baldwin (ARI)
Inaman (CLE)
Landry (BUF)
Mitchell (NYJ)

That's my ranking as of now...

 

Pick 1

Britt vs SF
Meredith vs Was
Mitchell vs NYJ

Got Britt slotted in right now because I feel like he has the highest floor. Mitchell probably has the highest ceiling. Ugh, feels like a coin flip.

 

Like Mitchell with his matchup

 

Ugh. Again Baldwin is either 0 or 20. Inman and Landry seem like safer bets with Mitchell with high potential too

 

Thanks for nothing ertz.

 

Seriously. What a wet fart.

 

OBJ giving me a nice start

 

So with Reed likely being out these are my options on the waivers:

Clay, Cook, Pitta, Fiedorowicz

I'm leaning towards cook but I don't know

 

Clay will kill the Dolphins LBs

 

Went to the Eagles game last night, watched OBJ dance his way to 150 yards for my opponent. Ugh.

 

We thought that last time and I'm not sure Taylor even targeted him that game. I also thought the Bills run O would tear up the Dolphins D and that was not the case

 

Ugh. Getting weird about starting Dez this week since they locked in the one seed.

Hopkins
M Thomas
Dez

Standard scoring pick 2

I need a huge game from somebody.
