I’d ride with Kenny. Mooney isn’t for real until Fields shows he can get the ball downfield, I have him and he’s a stash for now. Pollard is playing a tough Eagles run D, DJ Chark is riskier than Kenny to me.
12 team league. i have king henry and jrob as my RB starters, and stashed mattison. picked up hubbard due to no-waiver league, and noticed trey sermon available in my league. should i drop mattison for sermon, given all the recent injury news?

A. Robinson(WR),
L. Thomas (TE),
R. Moore (Flex).
G. Zuerlein, and Bears defense
Bench: Baker Mayfield, Antonio Gibson, Tony Pollard, Mike Evans, K.J. Osborn, Q. Cephus
Eh honestly i don't htink you can predict shootouts. Cowboys chargers had all the makings for one last week and was a dud. It's too dependent on gameplans. But Atl is consistently terrible against the pass, and the Giants are really utilizing Jones's running ability. people really sleep on that. Jones is a phenomenal athlete
You're probably right but Mike Davis against the Giants is so tempting. Rondale probably has the higher ceiling but you know Davis is going to score a solid 10 points no matter what.
Gimme Thielen, Robinson and Sutton. Sutton is the clear #1 now with a lovely matchup vs NYJ, Robinson has Justin Fields coming in (expecting a boost to both he and Mooney), and Thielen is the no brainer of the group.
Wr and flex
Ppr league
In no order
Theiland vs Seattle
Moore vs Jacksonville - hopkins is questionable, could see more action.
Hollywood brown vs Detroit Lamar is unreliable, but could pop off
Aj brown vs Indianapolis is he gonna bounce back?
Pascal vs Tennessee not really a consideration
I'm having trouble deciding mainly between Theiland, Hollywood, and Brown and moore
"Hop don't miss games" It's true, and he's talented enough that playing while limited still produces. If he's active, i'm playing him. Moore though, clearly is carving out a role for himself. Hop on the field makes blown coverage more likely. Soon enough he'll be starting for my team every week alongside hop.
Who are your RB1/2. I’d try to get both fo those guys in but if it’s not possible, Montgomery. Fields probably won’t be slinging it all day so I’d expect a good back like Montgomery to take some pressure off.
I’d wait and see with OBJ at least 1 week. Playing him week 1 is a bit risky for me. He could be limited too . KJ Osborn has been good, so I’d be comfortable playing him, just my .02
RB1/2 being Nick Chubb and JT, feel like I can't really sit either one of them. Was leaning a bit toward Montgomery but the lions are a juicy match up that Lamar won't need to carry.
As for OBJ I agree from his reports he feels good and should have been out earlier and with Juice out it makes it slightly more appealing. May still go with proven usability with KJ though
10-team, half ppr. Not sure what to do in my flex between ty’son Williams, CEH, or OBJ. Been leaning obj (unless there’s news of a snap count), but really not sure.
I would lean towards Ty’Son as he’s proven to be a big part of the offense and is facing what should be a really good match up this week. OBJ could ball out for sure especially with Landry out but I think he is a riskier pick.
10 Man Full PPR having trouble deciding on which WR’s to start, I have…
DK
Ridley
ARob
Julio
Deebo
Right now it’s DK, Ridley, ARob and Deebo but having second thoughts on ARob.
All good.
ARob has been QB proof. I understand he hasn’t been amazing these past two weeks but I’m personally rolling with him at least 1 more week before thinking about benching him, just my .02
In the same way, I’d want to see a bad ARob week before I bench him, I’d probably want to see another good Julio week. Last week was a super negative game script, so they really needed him. I’d want to see if they fall behind again(they should not hit if they do, Julio will probably be involved and thus a must start) or if they maintain a neutral/positive game script(can he produce when they don’t need him to go off).
If they were to fall behind to the colts, that’s a big deal. The DST sucks but the colts aren’t very explosive. Could be telling for how their games could go ROS. Just my .02
Half ppr two parter inquiry
AJ Brown vs Indy
Or
Chase vs Pittsburgh
I'm honestly leaning towards Chase because Higgins is likely out, and the volume should be good
Zeke vs Philly
CEH vs LAC
Davis vs Giants
I'm so shaky about Zeke I'm having issues deciding between the three
Thanks and good luck
Paranoia, lol. Unfortunately we're in an 8 team league because of last minute dropouts, so every team is stacked... I gotta go up against Kyler and Henry among others this week.
Full PPR - Current RBs are Mixon and Mike Davis with Ty’Son and Robinson on the bench. Crazy for Ty’son over Mike Davis? (De’Vonta @ flex so wouldn’t want to put him there)
I already have Hollywood and MAndrews in my line-up, generally don’t like having too many players from one team incase they shit the bed or ball isn’t spread around
not crazy, both are good in PPR with Davis edging Ty'son out a bit. Tyson does have a great matchup though W3. If cook is out i'm putting tyson in over davis.
12 team full PPR.
Dalvin cook is questionable, but for this scenario I’m assuming he plays. I traded for Barkley earlier in the week, and I’m not sure if I should ply him or not.
1QB, 1RB, 1WR, 1 WR/RB, 2 WR/TE, 1 RB/WR/TE
Who sits?
Barkley, Ty’Son, or Ridley?
Also nervous about Cook, and he plays after Barkley so I’m hoping Cook isn’t a GTD.
EDIT: Current Line up
QB: Stafford, RB: Cook, WR: Kupp, WR/RB: Ridley, WR/TE: Waller, WR/TE: Rondale Moore, RB/WR/TE: Ty’Son
Of those 3 I think it’s hard to not start Barkley and Ridley. Ty’Son has looked great but I think the other two have a higher ceiling, god that’s really tough though.
That’s what I’m thinking, and I traded for Barkley because I believe this is the week he gets back to form; but if Ty’Son goes off against DET like Jones did and Barkley puts up another stinker I might lose it hahaha. Kinda hoping Cook gets ruled out before tomorrow so I don’t have to make the decision
I would go with Javonte. Denver has what should be an easy matchup with the jets and I expect the offensive game plan to involve running the ball quite a bit.
I think I would start McKissic. He proved himself last week and that offense wants to get the ball in his hands and let him make plays.
Gainwell has also looked pretty good but I think Mckissic is a safer pick until proven otherwise.
Im a Bears fan and I think it would be fun to start Mooney but its definitely a boom/bust play. He’s fast as shit and the definitive number 2 receiver in that offense and they for sure have plays designed for him. Problem is who knows how Justin Field’s day is gonna go against the Brown’s D line.
I’m excited to start Mooney this week. Could be risky but that’s what makes fantasy fun. Add that to the fact that Henderson is beat up and facing a hard matchup and KJ is WR3 on a run heavy team and I’m starting Mooney for sure.
Are you not able to play 2 via a flex?
If it’s just one, I’d probably go Montgomery. Ty’Son is interesting this week though depending on your other flex options
I think TB is stout against the run until I see someone go off.
Okay that’s an interesting one. Deebo is going to get Jaire so I think his upside could be a bit limited. I think he’ll still be involved enough though.
I’d probably go Montgomery as the RB2, just my .02. The bears definitely can’t sling it too much with fields rn at least, so they’ll need to establish the run, especially to make RPO work.
If you’re scared about Jaire, then I’d play Ty’Son over Deebo. I think deebo should be okay though
It’s interesting but I’d go Patterson here.
Wilson struggled last week, and I think he needs to be at least half decent before Davis could be reliable. The Broncos defense isn’t bad too.
Patterson has shown good flashes through two weeks. He’s still a little unknown but I think he’s gets enough touches, just my .02
Half-PPR 12 Team
For Flex:
Do I start Chase Claypool, Sterling Shepherd, or Marvin Jones Jr?
Other Starting WRs: Mike Evans, Cooper Kupp
Other Bench Options: James White, Latavius Murray
Ty should have a great matchup this week and that offense has proven that they love to get him the ball. I’d feel confident starting him over those other two.
I think renfrow might have the safest floor among this group. Carr looks to him and trusts him to make plays for the offense. Runner up for me would be gainwell.
Just my .02, I’d go mike Williams.
It’s likely the chargers get caught in a negative game script and Williams could be very involved.
This is a very a potentially very powerful stack opportunity.
Rough decision. I’m big on Mike Will, but Chase Edmonds should dominate here so I’m going Edmonds. Mike Will has a little bit of risk, but I don’t really feel that way with Edmonds
I think I would feel pretty confident going with Smith in my flex between these two. Gainwell has looked good but I don’t expect him to outscore smith very often until he’s proven otherwise.
I have a lot of WR depth and I need to play two from Mike Williams, Justin Jefferson, Godwin, Courtland Sutton, and Moore.
Right now I'm going Williams and Moore, but unsure. Feels like I'm missing a good matchup with Sutton and leaving Godwin benched just feels wrong.
This is definitely a problem I wish I had! All of those guys are start worthy so I think I would consider based on my opponent this week whether I need a safer floor or bigger upside.
I think Jefferson I would start regardless. He is a critical part of the passing game and has a good matchup vs Seattle this week. For the other spot I think I would go with Mike Williams who also has a good matchup this week and is raking in plenty of targets this year to have a safe enough floor.
Sitting Godwin and Sutton and Moore doesn’t feel right but I think that’s what I’d roll with. I’d also probably try to package some of your depth at WR into a trade to cover a position you’re weaker at.
Just my .02, Williams and Godwin/Jefferson.
Mike Williams has a good matchup against KC. It’s likely the chargers fall into a negative game script and he’s involved.
I’d waiting and seeing on Sutton and Moore. Sutton had one good game. Moore had two. I actually have a Rondale issue myself- thinking about playing him over Woods but I’m probably not going to. I think it’s a good idea just to see one more week. He’s been good though. It’s tempting. I just don’t like that most of his yards and TD last week came off of one broken play. He is involved though and gets plays drawn up for him so it’s really 50/50 if he should play for me. I just need one more week to make sure Kirk won’t get in the way.
Between Jefferson and Godwin it’s tough. I’d lean Godwin because that game is more likely to be a shootout.
Depending on your flex situation, I’d try to start both
Just my .02, very interesting situation
Wouldn't consider Parker in this convo for week 3 considering the QB situation and the return of Will Fuller.
Between the other two, I'd slightly go Corey Davis ahead of Jakobi but we're talking 55/45 difference. Davis has a higher ceiling with Crowder out again imo and that's enough for me to roll the dice.
I have to make a decision whether to start Darrell Henderson or Kenyan Drake as my RB2. They both have late afternoon games tomorrow -- is there any way I can get a sense of the workload Henderson will get on game day, or should I just roll with Drake?
This is a full-PPR league I'm assuming since you're considering Drake. If that's the case, I'd have to do Drake here with the guaranteed targets in the passing game coming his way. Keep an eye on Josh Jacobs' status too. Haven't seen a confirmation of his absence yet.
A banged up RB against an elite RB defense spells trouble, but then again it's fantasy football so we'll all roll the safe play only to watch Henderson have himself a mutil-TD day or something crazy lol
My vote is Kenyan Drake this week as long as Jacobs is out.
I have Henderson in two leagues and am sitting him in both. I think it’s a common decision people are having to make this week but he is dealing with an injury and is against an elite run defense. Even if he’s active I’m expecting him to be limited on snaps and likely have pretty low production.
Feel like this is one you can’t really go wrong with. The one thing I’d take into consideration is Justin Fields starting this week and how that may or may not effect the run game/offense entirely.
I really like how Monty has looked and I’m sure they’ll use him but I think I would start Ty’Son. I really don’t envy you having to make this decision though!
Smith and Goedert. Awkward stack, but hurts loves his TEs, and that’s one less player to take targets from Smith. It’s gonna be a wild, high scoring game imo
Full PPR have to flex for Higgins being doubtful and I’m up 30 from DJ Moore and Panthers D. Opponent hasn’t had any players play yet projected me 158 to 130
Renfrow or Hunt
I think I would go with Hunt. The browns are always going to run the ball and they have shown that they want to use both their main backs as big pieces in the offense.
For whom?
He was good last year because he got the short passing game looks that CMC usually gets. I mean just in general, CMC being out opened up a lot of opportunities for Moore, Anderson and Samuel .
If CMC is out, Anderson could be serviceable.
I need to start 3 out of Julio Jones, Ceedee Lamb, Justin Jefferson and DK Metcalf. I also need to decide of Dalvin Cook doesnt play whether to start Pollard or Javonte Williams. Standard rules
I think I’d want to see production from JRob before starting him. The Jags are just throwing the ball way too much right now.
Ty’Son has a nice matchup against DET, so I’d roll with that, just my .02
I'm looking to trade for a high-end TE packaging Goedert with someone. Ertz out for W3 might offer a great sell high opportunity but I would prefer a trade before the sunday games.
With Waller on my roster, I expect folks aren't keen to trade without seeing a fleece to take. Several top TE teams are weak at WR, any suggestions?
8 Team League: PPR, 3WR, 2TE, 2 FLEX
QB: Derek Carr
RB: Dalvin Cook, Aaron Jones, Mike Davis, Ty'son Williams, Elijah Mitchell
WR: Deandre Hopkins, Terry Mclaurin, Chris Godwin, D.J. Moore, Mike Williams, Sterling Shepard, Rondale Moore
TE: Darren Waller, Dallas Goedert, Maxx Williams
K: Daniel Carlson
Def: Panthers, Patriots
You're insanely deep at WR. I'd honestly try a McLaurin/Goedert package for an upgrade to your TE since McLaurin's value is insane right now, and I personally don't think he can maintain. If you're a believer in his game, then I'd say Shepard, who is also at (or near) his own peak value of the season. Obviously in the case of the latter, you're not getting a 'top tier' TE but an upgrade is possible.
In these cases, I always try to move my highest value tradable guy at the position. D-Hop is your anchor, and Mike Williams' emergence as an every week option (imo) makes your WR2-WR4 tradeable in the right package.
Ah yeah, big believer in scary terry. Been grabbing him for a few years now!
I do think you're right though. Shepard was my first thought, but to reach into the top 5 I'll likely need to offer McLaurin or Godwin. Maybe even a 2 WR trade.
The acquisition of Rondale Moore (nice grab) and aforementioned emergence of Mike Williams make any of those guys expendable imo. You have enough firepower to withstand the bye weeks coming up because of that depth.
Shepherd will get you into the Logan Thomas/Noah Fant range but if you're trying top 5, you're spot on it's Godwin or McLaurin. Try Godwin/Goedert for Kelce and if the owner rejects, try Terry. The worst that can happen is they reject, aside from possibly getting offended at the former.
Personally, I'd try Kittle at the moment since his value is pretty down. DJ Moore/Goedert could land you Kittle.
Awesome, thanks a ton for the feedback.
Moore off of FA after week 1 seeing a few plays seemingly made just for him drove that choice for sure! Dropped Will Fuller and I'm not looking back lol.
Agree 100%. It was kittle and his lower snap count so far that got me into seeking a high-end TE trade in the first place! :D
Will get my trade offers upgraded for those high end guys. Will update if any trades get accepted!
0.5 PPR:
I put Hopkins in my FLEX spot since he's GTD. If he ends up being out would Chase Edmonds be the next best option from my bench? The rest is CEH, OBJ, and Pollard.
Just my .02, CEH and OBJ are wait and see players rn. I know CEH was probably a high draft pick but I haven’t liked what I’ve seen from him.
Pollard has upside and Edmonds has the floor in my opinion. I’d probably go with Edmonds because some of D Hopkins’s production could go to him
Yeah, I'm going by the same logic right now. I'm erring on the side of rolling out Edmonds because there's some guaranteed production with him, plus he has the better matchup. Absolutely bummed about CEH since he was a third round pick. Appreciate the advice.
Okay sounds good. Good job and good luck.
I’d maybe wait until he has a good week and try to get out via trade. Andy Reid historically supports an RB but CEH really hasn’t been that good in KC. By the goal line, Kelce is better. Having the ball in mahomes hand>running and he doesn’t really dump the ball off.
There is always one week where defenses oversell to stop the pass and the chiefs will just run the ball down their throats. That would be a good week to capitalize on the subsequent overreaction and maybe get out of there.
See- last season against the bills
Of course let’s hope, CEH finds a way to get involved.
Exactly. I haven't given up on him, but the fact that he's on the same offense as Kelce really doesn't help him, especially deep in the red zone as you mentioned. I'm hoping there will be better opportunities for him and possibly even enough to shop him around if I figure he's not worth the bench spot. Thankfully I've had some pretty good luck with RB depth this season so it's not a priority to find him a new home at the moment.
Thanks again, and good luck with your matchup this week.
Yeah exactly. He’s on the field but he’s not really the first option in any situation which sucks when the first options are all elite. Good that you can wait and see with him.
Yeah no prob, thanks good luck to you too.
While I have you here, what do you think of Woods vs TB or Rondale Moore at JAX?
Both are solid plays, but as a brand new Moore owner, I swapped him and Hopkins between my flex and WR spots. Even if I didn't own him, I'm pretty sure that he's gonna feast against that JAX defense. I have a lot of confidence in him, and if there was ever a matchup favorable to him, it's this week.
Totally see where you're coming from. Admittedly I might be more bullish on Moore due to recency bias and thinning depth on my team due to injuries. FWIW, FantasyPros has Woods ranked slightly higher than Moore in both full- and half-PPR.
https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/rankings/wr.php
Not to punt on your question, but I'd consult with others in here just to get a better gauge of opinions. Good luck either way.
Oh yeah for sure, I’m asking in most threads. I think most people are saying Woods. He’s been disappointing though. I’ll probably roll with him one more week but if he doesn’t do much against TB, I think I’d turn to Rondale.
Thanks
Yeah, seems possible he gets the squeaky wheel treatment. If he doesn’t play I’d lean Davis in a bad matchup, but one that may lead to a heavy passing game script for the Jets.
Half PPR: Kareem Hunt or Tony Pollard?
There is a less than 2 point difference so I'm thinking it's not a big deal by going with Pollard. Hunt only got 5 points last week even though he touched the ball more than Chubb.
PPR Start j. Meyers, m. Carter or J. McKissic in my flex? Thinking carter because he was used a lot last week and Tevin Coleman is out.
Tyson Williams or David Montgomery. 8 team Non-PPR. Chubb and Najee in my RB slots.
Need to start 1 in flex, 1/2 PPR: OBJ Corey Davis C. Patterson E. Sanders
2 flex questions: TEAM 1: Fournette, javonte Williams, or Mooney TEAM 2: Tim Patrick, Gaskin, Beesley or Mooney
Williams Gaskin
12 team .5 PPR: Jamaal Williams vs Bal Latavius @ Det Michel vs TB ( if Henderson out)
Tyson vs Lions or CEH vs Chargers in my flex spot? 8-man league with my other RB spots as Kamara & Chris Carson
With Dionte out and in my IR who are some lottery pick ups? Or should I look forward week 4 defense perhaps?
Who to flex?? Half PPR: Kenny Golladay Tony Pollard DJ Chark Darnell Mooney Thanks!
I’d ride with Kenny. Mooney isn’t for real until Fields shows he can get the ball downfield, I have him and he’s a stash for now. Pollard is playing a tough Eagles run D, DJ Chark is riskier than Kenny to me.
Thanks ChodeBoner lol, was thinking the same so thanks for the reassurance
Ppr Gibson, chase, R. Moore or Sermon as a flex?
Moooooore
I like Moore here, it’ll be fun to watch whereas Gibson will just make you sad
Moore IMO, good matchup
12 team league. i have king henry and jrob as my RB starters, and stashed mattison. picked up hubbard due to no-waiver league, and noticed trey sermon available in my league. should i drop mattison for sermon, given all the recent injury news?
I think Sermon is a must add and I’d drop Mattison
OBJ or DJ chark at flex. Full PPR
Starters: D Carr, Ekeler, j.Taylor, B. Cooks(WR), A. Robinson(WR), L. Thomas (TE), R. Moore (Flex). G. Zuerlein, and Bears defense Bench: Baker Mayfield, Antonio Gibson, Tony Pollard, Mike Evans, K.J. Osborn, Q. Cephus

Half PPR, Flex either: Jaylen Waddle Quintez Cephus Zach Pascal
Cephus
Bench 1: Amari, Marquise, Sanders, Edmonds, Drake
I’d probably bench sanders. It’s between sanders and marquise. Marquise has more upside
Cousins vs. SEA or Jones vs. ATL? I have Kirk Cousins in right now, but it's hard to ignore the potential for Daniel Jones to have a big game.
Jones
Isn’t Cousins in store for a shootout game though?
Eh honestly i don't htink you can predict shootouts. Cowboys chargers had all the makings for one last week and was a dud. It's too dependent on gameplans. But Atl is consistently terrible against the pass, and the Giants are really utilizing Jones's running ability. people really sleep on that. Jones is a phenomenal athlete
Dak against Philly or Daniel Jones against Atlanta?
I say Dak, you drafted him to start him and Daniel Jones is risky.
Tyson Williams vs DET or Myles Gaskin vs LV
I’m taking Tyson. Dolphins are a mess
.5 PPR flex: Mike Davis or Rondale Moore?
Rondale
You're probably right but Mike Davis against the Giants is so tempting. Rondale probably has the higher ceiling but you know Davis is going to score a solid 10 points no matter what.
Falcons seem to like C Patterson a lot though.
Full PPR; need 3 WR of the bunch: Allen Robinson Woods Theilen Hollywood Brown Sutton Boyd
Gimme Thielen, Robinson and Sutton. Sutton is the clear #1 now with a lovely matchup vs NYJ, Robinson has Justin Fields coming in (expecting a boost to both he and Mooney), and Thielen is the no brainer of the group.
Theilen, woods, Robinson in that order. Maybe Sutton instead of Robinson
RB2 PPR: Swift or Ty'Son Williams?
I would personally go swift over Williams
Thanks, leaning towards him as well but uncertain bc of the matchup Williams has against Detroit.
Wr and flex Ppr league In no order Theiland vs Seattle Moore vs Jacksonville - hopkins is questionable, could see more action. Hollywood brown vs Detroit Lamar is unreliable, but could pop off Aj brown vs Indianapolis is he gonna bounce back? Pascal vs Tennessee not really a consideration I'm having trouble deciding mainly between Theiland, Hollywood, and Brown and moore
if hop is out im starting moore confidently
From what I read, he hasn't practiced all week because of a rib injury. Game day decision, so limited role maybe?
"Hop don't miss games" It's true, and he's talented enough that playing while limited still produces. If he's active, i'm playing him. Moore though, clearly is carving out a role for himself. Hop on the field makes blown coverage more likely. Soon enough he'll be starting for my team every week alongside hop.
I'm confident with my wr pool long term, I got Cooks too, he already played. But it does make for some hard decisions week to week.
Thielen and AJ I think
Theilen seems certain.
Pick 1 half ppr **James Robison** v Arizona **Fournette** @ LA Rams **L. Murray** @ Detroit **Mattison** v Seattle

tyson for the floor, OBJ for the ceiling. CEH if you want basically no floor at all looool.
I would lean towards Ty’Son as he’s proven to be a big part of the offense and is facing what should be a really good match up this week. OBJ could ball out for sure especially with Landry out but I think he is a riskier pick.

I need clarification. You’re starting 4 of these 5? Am I understanding that right?
Sorry about that, 4. ARob and Deebo are in flex spots.

12 team full PPR. Dalvin cook is questionable, but for this scenario I’m assuming he plays. I traded for Barkley earlier in the week, and I’m not sure if I should ply him or not. 1QB, 1RB, 1WR, 1 WR/RB, 2 WR/TE, 1 RB/WR/TE Who sits? Barkley, Ty’Son, or Ridley?

EDIT: Current Line up QB: Stafford, RB: Cook, WR: Kupp, WR/RB: Ridley, WR/TE: Waller, WR/TE: Rondale Moore, RB/WR/TE: Ty’Son
Of those 3 I think it’s hard to not start Barkley and Ridley. Ty’Son has looked great but I think the other two have a higher ceiling, god that’s really tough though.
That’s what I’m thinking, and I traded for Barkley because I believe this is the week he gets back to form; but if Ty’Son goes off against DET like Jones did and Barkley puts up another stinker I might lose it hahaha. Kinda hoping Cook gets ruled out before tomorrow so I don’t have to make the decision
half ppr If cook is out tomorrow should I go with Javontae Williams or Alexander Matison as my replacement?
I would go with Javonte. Denver has what should be an easy matchup with the jets and I expect the offensive game plan to involve running the ball quite a bit.
If Henderson is not playing, do I roster McKissic or Gainwell? Also, Slayton, Chase or Davis for the flex?
I think I would start McKissic. He proved himself last week and that offense wants to get the ball in his hands and let him make plays. Gainwell has also looked pretty good but I think Mckissic is a safer pick until proven otherwise.
Half PPR Mixon worth a trade for Ty’son Williams? Straight up. I have Henry as my RB1.

Im a Bears fan and I think it would be fun to start Mooney but its definitely a boom/bust play. He’s fast as shit and the definitive number 2 receiver in that offense and they for sure have plays designed for him. Problem is who knows how Justin Field’s day is gonna go against the Brown’s D line.
Didn’t go quite as I hoped
I’m excited to start Mooney this week. Could be risky but that’s what makes fantasy fun. Add that to the fact that Henderson is beat up and facing a hard matchup and KJ is WR3 on a run heavy team and I’m starting Mooney for sure.
I also have Allen Robinson but I don’t think that changes much. The boys are gonna eat
Standard league. Need a flex. Who should I start? Darrell Henderson, Mike Davis or Marquise Brown.
half ppr I have Damien Harris, Mike Williams or Chase Edmunds Which two of them should start in the flex and rb2 spots?
I like Edmonds RB2 and Williams flex
full PPR who do i start as RB2 Montgomery, Ty’son, or Henderson
Are you not able to play 2 via a flex? If it’s just one, I’d probably go Montgomery. Ty’Son is interesting this week though depending on your other flex options I think TB is stout against the run until I see someone go off.
have Deebo in flex rn
Okay that’s an interesting one. Deebo is going to get Jaire so I think his upside could be a bit limited. I think he’ll still be involved enough though. I’d probably go Montgomery as the RB2, just my .02. The bears definitely can’t sling it too much with fields rn at least, so they’ll need to establish the run, especially to make RPO work. If you’re scared about Jaire, then I’d play Ty’Son over Deebo. I think deebo should be okay though
thanks for the insight, I like your point about fields. think i’ll start Monty and Deebo
Montgomery
Corey Davis @Denver or Cordarelle Patterson @NYG 12 team standard
It’s interesting but I’d go Patterson here. Wilson struggled last week, and I think he needs to be at least half decent before Davis could be reliable. The Broncos defense isn’t bad too. Patterson has shown good flashes through two weeks. He’s still a little unknown but I think he’s gets enough touches, just my .02
Davis
Half-PPR 12 Team For Flex: Do I start Chase Claypool, Sterling Shepherd, or Marvin Jones Jr? Other Starting WRs: Mike Evans, Cooper Kupp Other Bench Options: James White, Latavius Murray
Shep
Ty’son Williams, emmanuel sanders, or Melvin Gordon for full PPR?
Ty should have a great matchup this week and that offense has proven that they love to get him the ball. I’d feel confident starting him over those other two.
Ty’Son
Hey MOTOR CITY MOBB, if you're on this today, quit sending me shit trades! You're not getting Ceedee or Gibson!
Still debating on dropping Koo for Folk
One more week 🙏
Yeah I just did that exact transaction in two leagues this week. With that said Koo will probably kick for 25 pts lol
Haha right?! Man, think I might give it just one more week but we’ll see
Desperation flex reagor or gainwell or latavius or renfrow or goedert? Thanks! 14 team ppr
I think renfrow might have the safest floor among this group. Carr looks to him and trusts him to make plays for the offense. Runner up for me would be gainwell.
Flex Edmonds vs jaguars or Mike Williams vs chiefs, I also have Herbert
Just my .02, I’d go mike Williams. It’s likely the chargers get caught in a negative game script and Williams could be very involved. This is a very a potentially very powerful stack opportunity.
Rough decision. I’m big on Mike Will, but Chase Edmonds should dominate here so I’m going Edmonds. Mike Will has a little bit of risk, but I don’t really feel that way with Edmonds
Zach Pascal has a great matchup, it seems on the surface. Finally take a flyer on him against the Falcons?
Do I Start CEH vs Chargers or Claypool (Diontae Johnson is out) vs Bengals? Full point PPR
Claypool is the safer play.
Claypool and trade CEH imo
Do you recommend a starting WR or upside backup RB at my second flex? DeVonta Smith or Kenneth Gainwell.
I think I would feel pretty confident going with Smith in my flex between these two. Gainwell has looked good but I don’t expect him to outscore smith very often until he’s proven otherwise.
I have a lot of WR depth and I need to play two from Mike Williams, Justin Jefferson, Godwin, Courtland Sutton, and Moore. Right now I'm going Williams and Moore, but unsure. Feels like I'm missing a good matchup with Sutton and leaving Godwin benched just feels wrong.
This is definitely a problem I wish I had! All of those guys are start worthy so I think I would consider based on my opponent this week whether I need a safer floor or bigger upside. I think Jefferson I would start regardless. He is a critical part of the passing game and has a good matchup vs Seattle this week. For the other spot I think I would go with Mike Williams who also has a good matchup this week and is raking in plenty of targets this year to have a safe enough floor. Sitting Godwin and Sutton and Moore doesn’t feel right but I think that’s what I’d roll with. I’d also probably try to package some of your depth at WR into a trade to cover a position you’re weaker at.
Just my .02, Williams and Godwin/Jefferson. Mike Williams has a good matchup against KC. It’s likely the chargers fall into a negative game script and he’s involved. I’d waiting and seeing on Sutton and Moore. Sutton had one good game. Moore had two. I actually have a Rondale issue myself- thinking about playing him over Woods but I’m probably not going to. I think it’s a good idea just to see one more week. He’s been good though. It’s tempting. I just don’t like that most of his yards and TD last week came off of one broken play. He is involved though and gets plays drawn up for him so it’s really 50/50 if he should play for me. I just need one more week to make sure Kirk won’t get in the way. Between Jefferson and Godwin it’s tough. I’d lean Godwin because that game is more likely to be a shootout. Depending on your flex situation, I’d try to start both Just my .02, very interesting situation
Need a 3rd receiver, ppr: Jakobi Meyers, Corey Davis, or devante parker
Wouldn't consider Parker in this convo for week 3 considering the QB situation and the return of Will Fuller. Between the other two, I'd slightly go Corey Davis ahead of Jakobi but we're talking 55/45 difference. Davis has a higher ceiling with Crowder out again imo and that's enough for me to roll the dice.
Awesome thanks I forgot tua was out so I was leaning parker, so I think I’ll roll Davis because he’s already produced this year thanks
I have to make a decision whether to start Darrell Henderson or Kenyan Drake as my RB2. They both have late afternoon games tomorrow -- is there any way I can get a sense of the workload Henderson will get on game day, or should I just roll with Drake?
This is a full-PPR league I'm assuming since you're considering Drake. If that's the case, I'd have to do Drake here with the guaranteed targets in the passing game coming his way. Keep an eye on Josh Jacobs' status too. Haven't seen a confirmation of his absence yet. A banged up RB against an elite RB defense spells trouble, but then again it's fantasy football so we'll all roll the safe play only to watch Henderson have himself a mutil-TD day or something crazy lol My vote is Kenyan Drake this week as long as Jacobs is out.
The floor on either is pretty low: either Henderson on a snap count or Drake as an ineffective back. That being said, I’d roll out Henderson.
I have Henderson in two leagues and am sitting him in both. I think it’s a common decision people are having to make this week but he is dealing with an injury and is against an elite run defense. Even if he’s active I’m expecting him to be limited on snaps and likely have pretty low production.
Trey Sermon on waivers in a 10 team league. Drop Tony Jones Jr for him? And how much FAAB to acquire?
If you have kamara I'm keeping Jones
Not a Kamara owner. He’s my RB5 behind Hines
Drop 15-20%. If someone wants to pay more than that God bless them
Monty or Ty’Son as RB2 this week?
Feel like this is one you can’t really go wrong with. The one thing I’d take into consideration is Justin Fields starting this week and how that may or may not effect the run game/offense entirely. I really like how Monty has looked and I’m sure they’ll use him but I think I would start Ty’Son. I really don’t envy you having to make this decision though!
I know it’s tough! Appreciate your input though
Full PPR: Start OBJ vs CHI, Devonta Smith vs DAL, or Damien Harris vs NO at the Flex? And Pitts vs NYG or Goedert vs DAL (with Ertz out)?
Ertz was just activated. Pitts and smith
Is Smith and OBJ close? Missing out on a big OBJ game in his 1st game back would really sting
Na I don't think so. Smith with confidence my man
Smith and Goedert. Awkward stack, but hurts loves his TEs, and that’s one less player to take targets from Smith. It’s gonna be a wild, high scoring game imo
Full PPR have to flex for Higgins being doubtful and I’m up 30 from DJ Moore and Panthers D. Opponent hasn’t had any players play yet projected me 158 to 130 Renfrow or Hunt
I think I would go with Hunt. The browns are always going to run the ball and they have shown that they want to use both their main backs as big pieces in the offense.
10-team full PPR Chris Godwin or DeAndre Swift as FLEX?
Godwin
Who are your other WRs? Both have a high floor, Swift probably has more upside.
Tyreek and AJ Brown. THe upside might be what tips the scales. Or an update to Swift's injury status.
I’d plan to play Swift, but if you have to play Godwin due to injury update, that’s not a negative by any means.
Jamar chase, Julio, or Mike Davis in PPR
Chase
Chase
Can I drop Robby Anderson
Depending on who’s on waivers for sure but I would have no issues dropping him for a lottery ticket at this point.
For whom? He was good last year because he got the short passing game looks that CMC usually gets. I mean just in general, CMC being out opened up a lot of opportunities for Moore, Anderson and Samuel . If CMC is out, Anderson could be serviceable.
I need to start 3 out of Julio Jones, Ceedee Lamb, Justin Jefferson and DK Metcalf. I also need to decide of Dalvin Cook doesnt play whether to start Pollard or Javonte Williams. Standard rules
Lamb, Jefferson, Metcalf Starting Javonte
The latter 3 WRs and Javonte Williams (I’m a bit biased here because I have Zeke), however I think Cook plays anyway
8 man PPR, need to start 3 out of these 5: WR A. Robinson II WR M. Evans WR D. Samuel WR A. Cooper RB D. Swift
Cooper Swift Robinson… but I’d really want to play Deebo (personally) and probably would. But my advice is rob
.5 ppr Tyson WIlliams or JRob?
I agree on waiting to see something from JRob/Meyer, especially when TySon is facing this beauty of a matchup!
I think I’d want to see production from JRob before starting him. The Jags are just throwing the ball way too much right now. Ty’Son has a nice matchup against DET, so I’d roll with that, just my .02
I'm looking to trade for a high-end TE packaging Goedert with someone. Ertz out for W3 might offer a great sell high opportunity but I would prefer a trade before the sunday games. With Waller on my roster, I expect folks aren't keen to trade without seeing a fleece to take. Several top TE teams are weak at WR, any suggestions? 8 Team League: PPR, 3WR, 2TE, 2 FLEX QB: Derek Carr RB: Dalvin Cook, Aaron Jones, Mike Davis, Ty'son Williams, Elijah Mitchell WR: Deandre Hopkins, Terry Mclaurin, Chris Godwin, D.J. Moore, Mike Williams, Sterling Shepard, Rondale Moore TE: Darren Waller, Dallas Goedert, Maxx Williams K: Daniel Carlson Def: Panthers, Patriots
You're insanely deep at WR. I'd honestly try a McLaurin/Goedert package for an upgrade to your TE since McLaurin's value is insane right now, and I personally don't think he can maintain. If you're a believer in his game, then I'd say Shepard, who is also at (or near) his own peak value of the season. Obviously in the case of the latter, you're not getting a 'top tier' TE but an upgrade is possible. In these cases, I always try to move my highest value tradable guy at the position. D-Hop is your anchor, and Mike Williams' emergence as an every week option (imo) makes your WR2-WR4 tradeable in the right package.
Ah yeah, big believer in scary terry. Been grabbing him for a few years now! I do think you're right though. Shepard was my first thought, but to reach into the top 5 I'll likely need to offer McLaurin or Godwin. Maybe even a 2 WR trade.
The acquisition of Rondale Moore (nice grab) and aforementioned emergence of Mike Williams make any of those guys expendable imo. You have enough firepower to withstand the bye weeks coming up because of that depth. Shepherd will get you into the Logan Thomas/Noah Fant range but if you're trying top 5, you're spot on it's Godwin or McLaurin. Try Godwin/Goedert for Kelce and if the owner rejects, try Terry. The worst that can happen is they reject, aside from possibly getting offended at the former. Personally, I'd try Kittle at the moment since his value is pretty down. DJ Moore/Goedert could land you Kittle.
Awesome, thanks a ton for the feedback. Moore off of FA after week 1 seeing a few plays seemingly made just for him drove that choice for sure! Dropped Will Fuller and I'm not looking back lol. Agree 100%. It was kittle and his lower snap count so far that got me into seeking a high-end TE trade in the first place! :D Will get my trade offers upgraded for those high end guys. Will update if any trades get accepted!
Best of luck! In both getting a deal done and the season overall!
Brady @ LAR or Hurts @ DAL? Also, what do we think about the Cook injury? I have Ty’Son I can replace him with if needed.
0.5 PPR: I put Hopkins in my FLEX spot since he's GTD. If he ends up being out would Chase Edmonds be the next best option from my bench? The rest is CEH, OBJ, and Pollard.
Just my .02, CEH and OBJ are wait and see players rn. I know CEH was probably a high draft pick but I haven’t liked what I’ve seen from him. Pollard has upside and Edmonds has the floor in my opinion. I’d probably go with Edmonds because some of D Hopkins’s production could go to him
Yeah, I'm going by the same logic right now. I'm erring on the side of rolling out Edmonds because there's some guaranteed production with him, plus he has the better matchup. Absolutely bummed about CEH since he was a third round pick. Appreciate the advice.
Okay sounds good. Good job and good luck. I’d maybe wait until he has a good week and try to get out via trade. Andy Reid historically supports an RB but CEH really hasn’t been that good in KC. By the goal line, Kelce is better. Having the ball in mahomes hand>running and he doesn’t really dump the ball off. There is always one week where defenses oversell to stop the pass and the chiefs will just run the ball down their throats. That would be a good week to capitalize on the subsequent overreaction and maybe get out of there. See- last season against the bills Of course let’s hope, CEH finds a way to get involved.
Exactly. I haven't given up on him, but the fact that he's on the same offense as Kelce really doesn't help him, especially deep in the red zone as you mentioned. I'm hoping there will be better opportunities for him and possibly even enough to shop him around if I figure he's not worth the bench spot. Thankfully I've had some pretty good luck with RB depth this season so it's not a priority to find him a new home at the moment. Thanks again, and good luck with your matchup this week.
Yeah exactly. He’s on the field but he’s not really the first option in any situation which sucks when the first options are all elite. Good that you can wait and see with him. Yeah no prob, thanks good luck to you too. While I have you here, what do you think of Woods vs TB or Rondale Moore at JAX?
Both are solid plays, but as a brand new Moore owner, I swapped him and Hopkins between my flex and WR spots. Even if I didn't own him, I'm pretty sure that he's gonna feast against that JAX defense. I have a lot of confidence in him, and if there was ever a matchup favorable to him, it's this week.
Gotcha thanks for the advice. It’s gonna be close for me because I can see TB and LAR getting into a shootout
Totally see where you're coming from. Admittedly I might be more bullish on Moore due to recency bias and thinning depth on my team due to injuries. FWIW, FantasyPros has Woods ranked slightly higher than Moore in both full- and half-PPR. https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/rankings/wr.php Not to punt on your question, but I'd consult with others in here just to get a better gauge of opinions. Good luck either way.
Oh yeah for sure, I’m asking in most threads. I think most people are saying Woods. He’s been disappointing though. I’ll probably roll with him one more week but if he doesn’t do much against TB, I think I’d turn to Rondale. Thanks
I like chase Edmonds for your flex, then OBJ
Thanks. Yeah, I'm leaning heavily towards Edmonds since I still want to see some production from OBJ before I'm comfortable rostering him.
I agree. Good luck pal
Thanks, you too bud.
.5 PPR need 1 WR Golladay. C Davis. Waddle
Davis. I’m big on Davis and think last game isn’t a good representation of what his season has in store.
It’s the rook I’m worried about vs that Denver D
I feel that. Shepherd is WR1 on NYG imo, but it could be a blowout. Feel okay with going Golladay or Davis. It seems like a split decision in general
I’d lean Golladay if he plays, but it’s ugly.
Yeah I’m leaning Golladay just bc he was barking on the sideline and I think he might go off
Yeah, seems possible he gets the squeaky wheel treatment. If he doesn’t play I’d lean Davis in a bad matchup, but one that may lead to a heavy passing game script for the Jets.
Yeah I really just need Diontae and Thomas to get healthy and bench these scrubs
Half PPR: Kareem Hunt or Tony Pollard? There is a less than 2 point difference so I'm thinking it's not a big deal by going with Pollard. Hunt only got 5 points last week even though he touched the ball more than Chubb.
