Yeah I would feel pretty good with starting Tannehill in the fantasy championship.

Imagine that sentence being said at the beginning of the season lol.

 

or mixon being a pretty safe RB2 after the abysmal first 10 games basically

 

the guy dropped manning this morning, so I’m sure his first waiver wire priority will be Ryan again anyways.

 

I've got Tannehill and Dak....I'd start dak here against the terrible Eagles D but I'm worried about that fractured finger. Not sure what I'll do yet.

 

Is the 49ers D getting their injured starters back?

 

Godwin and Chark hurt is a nightmare situation for my championship game. WR was a strong point for me but Stafford’s injury tanked Golladay’s value and John Brown’s got a tough matchup against New England this week. I’m tempted to flex a running back instead.

The guy I’m playing also grabbed Perriman and Amendola two weeks ago. I ended up taking Kenny Stills off waivers as a last resort but he gets so few targets that it seems like a bad risk.

 

D/ST options since I'm facing the Patriots D/ST this week it could be a difference maker...

Saints (currently on roster)

Or add:
Colts ( vs Will Grier)
Falcons (Jaguars)
Chiefs (Mitchy Mitch)
Bonercats (Eli)

Here's the current matchup

 

I like the Colts against Grier if you're looking for turnover upside. But I feel like if you want to play it safe you could choose the Chiefs. Bears don't score much and their secondary has been playing phenomenal.

 

Sherman and Williams will be back Saturday, not sure about Tartt/Ford.

 

Got Perriman!

Now just need to decide on my flex and defense:

Flex options:
Golden Tate vs WAS
Curtis Samuel vs IND
Hollister vs ARI
Kerryon (if he returns) vs DEN
Wait and see with Mattison vs GB

Defense options:
BUF vs NE
MIN vs GB
ATL vs Jags

 

Courtland Sutton vs lions or Perriman vs Texans?!

 

tate or Samuel seem like the best options there unless Mattison is 90% or better.

eesh Falcons I guess?

 

Yeah I’m def leaning towards maybe Tate. Samuel has a solid matchup but we have no idea what we are getting with Grier.

And ugh yeah it sucks defense front. ATL was the best streamer available and BUF and MIN have tough matchups. Although, I’m a pats fan and watching how Brady is throwing with his elbow injury plus the corpse of Edelman is very intriguing.

 

that’s fair. The Pats are tough to gauge. They could run Michel and throw to White quite a bit but maybe it will be low scoring enough to make the Bills worth it.

 

Id roll Buffalo. They've been playing lights out. In ESPN leagues, they still got 3 pts when facing Baltimore. NE's offense hasn't looked great and you know they have an elite defense. Out of those flex Id roll Hollister against Arizona's poop defense against Tight Ends. BUT if Cook is ruled out before the Sunday games and Mattison is healthy, Id roll him.

 

Im tilting hard with my flex decisions. Pick 2!

AJ Brown vs NO
Diggs vs GB
Lindsay vs DET
Perriman vs HOU
Boone vs GB (if Cook/Mattison are out)

 

I’d probably go Brown and perriman

 

All are solid options I think! I feel like Diggs and either Brown/Perriman. Lindsay vs Detroit is a nice matchup but didn’t Freeman get more touches last week? I don’t follow much Denver football haha

 

Thats what Im thinking but im tilting hard hah

 

Yeah Lindsay has a great matchup but Freeman taking his work away scares me. Im thinking Brown is a lock. My real dilemma is Diggs/Perriman.

Perriman should feast since Winston throws it like 50 times a game. Diggs has a high ceiling but super low floor (my only worry is the same might be said for Perriman)

 

titans game could be a shoot out/lots of passing, perriman is literally the only healthy receiver in another pass happy offense.

 

thats my thought too. NO has a tough run defense and should be able to score on the Titans. So Im thinking gameflow will take Henry outta the game and force Tannehill to throw. Brown's def in my lineup.

Houston should easily score against the Bucs too, forcing them to have to throw (which they already do anyway lol).

Good stuff!

 

Yeah I mean you have a safe floor with Diggs (especially in PPR), but I think the upside of both brown and perriman easily outweighs that.

 

Championship Line-up (as of 9:11 a.m. December 18)

Starters:
QB - Brees
WR - Edelman
WR - AJ Brown
RB - CMC
RB - Carson
TE - Henry
Flex - Ekeler
K - Myers
D - SF

Bench:
Deebo
Hooper
Tannehill
Winston (just picked up)
Slayton
McLaurin

My only concern right now is Edelman who is injured, playing a good D and the NE offense sucks. But I mean, outside of last week, he's been super dependable. I really like McLaurin's match-up this week and if Edelman is still banged up, I'm considering the change.

Also, starting Winston is really tempting. But I don't know if I'd be able to live with myself if I start him and he sucks. I could live with starting Brees and he sucks.

 

Predictably did not get Perriman in my main league, as it is FAAB and I had $0 left.

I did get Fitz and AP. I'll be begging for advice this week for all 3 of my lineups i'm sure hah
