Have first waiver pick and a choice between (PPR)
T. Sharpe
Ty Williams

Going Sharpe. Figure he is in a better position to be #1 receiver on his team and draw more targets.

at a few of the Rest of season rankings i have looked at, Tyrell Williams has no significance

this is promising for those targeting Hogan:Hogan was on the field for 55 of the Patriots' 71 snaps on offense, making him the team's second-busiest wideout on the day, behind Julian Edelman (61 snaps). Meanwhile, Malcolm Mitchell saw 39 snaps and Danny Amendola was out there for 19. Hogan's Week 1 usage confirms that he should be a key cog in the Patriots' offense going forward, though as the season progresses, added variables will factor into the team's weekly game-planning -- for example, the eventual return to the mix of both TE Rob Gronkowski and QB Tom Brady.

what's consensus on Sammie Coates (wr-PIT)? sounds like he is the #2 yet and had an okay game week 1, only 3 targets but got like 55 yards. Also, wheaton will be returning soon

I like me some Hogan too, but I have a feeling you'll simply never know when to start him, particularly when Gronk and Lewis are both healthy. So many mouths to feed.

I would put Coates as the 4th receiver on that team - he really fell of a cliff the month before the season started

Spent $3 on Tyrell, while someone spent $10 on Agholor, then immediately dropped him for Sammie Coates??

Tavon Austin was dropped during week 1 waivers.

12 team, deep roster, PPR league - do we want anything to do with him?

Didn't see MNF but 12 targets and a rushing attempt doesn't seem like a week 1 drop guy to me.

Depends who you're dropping obv. If he's your wr6 in a 12 team PPR I don't see a problem. They gave him $10mm/yr with 2 years guaranteed, so he's probably going to get touches as to not make Jeff Fisher look dumb.

Well here is another reason not to burn your #1 WW on a marginal guy. I have Ertz, held onto the waiver and someone just dropped Delanie Walker? Wtf am I missing something here?

How much would you guys bid on Barnidge in a 12 team standard league? I'm thinking 10%.

I currently have Ebron. Probably dropping Shaun Draughn (own Hyde) and will reevaluate when I can open a roster spot via Brady return, Tyrell sucking, or dropping Ebron/Barnidge.

Did you see something I didn't see in the Detroit game?
Ebron was 5-46-1 on 5 targets. Do you think Barnidge will be that much better? I have my doubts

Barnidge breakout was 2015 - great numbers but guess who didn't play in 2015 - Josh Gordon, guess who is coming back in 3 games, Josh Gordon

So lets check the Barnidge numbers for the previous two years when those two played together - 29 games 26 catches 283 yards and 2 tds (IN TWO FULL SEASON) - we can all agree those numbers suck for even a blocking TE

2015 Browns only had one decent WR in (travis benjamin) so there was NO other option to get the ball to the other WRs, dont laugh (5 catch dwayne bowe, 27 catch andrew hawkins was the wr2) it was a putrid collection which mostly likely acconted for the increased catches from Barnidge

2016 Browns add WR Coleman with their first pick and seem to have had some success converting Pryor to WR. plus they took several more WR in the last draft that i cant name.

cliffs:
1 -I don't think Barnidge can get anywhere close to his numbers from last year (catches -yards -TDs)
2- I think anyone with Ebron is in great shape as he didn't cost a high pick and looks like he will be involved every game. I am thinking TE 5-10 by the end of the season

McCown is the difference in those scenarios, but you've made your point. Expecting last year's numbers is fairly optimistic... however, so is projecting Ebron based on a shootout. without the TD he doesn't have much.

How do you make that post about Barnidge and not mention McCown once?

Or mention Pryor+Coleman. Unlike last year, now Cleveland actually has some talent in its WR group (even if Gordon doesn't pan out). McCown is obviously better for Barnidge than RG3, but Barnidge isn't getting the 120+ targets he had last year. If you're expecting Barnidge to be a top ~5 TE this season, prepare to be disappointed.

im not guaranteeing anything but Rodgers can still be a good add to an ok squad or in my case i had to replace keenan allen, he (Rogers) wasn't my first target. Think he could still be a valid asset on a solid steelers offense.

standard scoring start 2rb, 2wr & 1 flex

drop one for a K

forte, latavius, melvin gordon, blount, t coleman, ajayi, riddick
odell, dez, arob, emmanuel, m floyd, john brown

I am leaning riddick since it is standard scoring.

Can everyone agree that Wheaton sucks and should barely be rostered.
Isn't it clear that rogers>Wheaton in ppr

I watched the whole Lions game. Colts secondary is currently the worst in the league. At the end of the game they had 5 DBs that could walk and three weren't even in training camp at the start. So I'm a little suspect of all the Lions players numbers from that game.
