J-Stew seems like a desperation stash. There's just no telling when he'll be back and how long he'll be healthy for when he does come back.
I agree Forsett over Crowell now. If you're pretty deep and just looking for a guy to stash, I would probably go with Crowell.

1 QB .5 ppr league thinking of dropping either Pierre Thomas or Bridgewater (have Peyton) for McKinnon, just drop Thomas? Have Foster, Charles, Ellington, K. Davis, Mark Ingram (IR) on my roster.

Ya I would send Pierre packing, McKinnon super high upside. Not looking good at all for Pierre

Larry Fitz. available in my 8-team PPR league. Should I go for him or stand pat? Also trying to trade a TE to a guy who had Davis. Offered Cameron for Forsett. Also need to pick up a DST for this week, NE nearly cost me the win.

1 other question. Since Manning has had his bye, should I keep Cutler as a backup in case of injury or cut him and try to stash Ryan Matthews?

QB: P Manning, Cutler
RB: Jackson, Brown, Robinson, Ball, Asiata
WR: Green, Garcon, Hopkins, Patterson
TE: Gronk, Walker, Cameron
K: Tucker
D: NE

Please tell me this is not your 8 team league.
I would try grab matthews and try to move a TE plus a RB for a better RB.
3 is too many TEs.

Why did you not grab them as FA's before Sunday's games?
Given you didn't, I could spend about 10% of my budget on that, depending on a lot of stuff like who has how much left, need at other positions etc...

I think they are worth about 1.5 -2 pts a week over replacement level Defs plus you can free up a bench spot obver streaming and just roll them out every week.

Have $65 left and Bush/Gore/Khiry/Talia as RBs, how much should I put out there for Mckinnon?
NFL Waiver Wire - Week 5 Quote
09-30-2014 , 03:10 PM
So I have Gore/Hyde and Matthews/Brown. What's my plan with these guys at this point? Keep Brown until Matthew returns? Too early to give up on Hyde?

Only 6 bench spots, so don't want much dead weight there

that would require the guy to have dropped them early enough for them to be free agents

I have the second highest waiver priority in my league atm. Who should I target here? Standard 10 team league. My WRs atm are Nelson. Cobb, VJax, and Welker. RBs are Charles, Ball, Vereen, Blue, and Taliaferro.

T.Y. Hilton
Jerick McKinnon
Justin Forsett
Ryan Matthews

Thinking Hilton is the no brainer play here (not sure why he's available to begin with tbh), but the upside of McKinnon is solid. I could also jump on Matthews while he's still hurt and stash him for a week or two.

Donnell for sure. Depending on who you have to cut, some of those other guys would be good targets

How deep of a league?

I like Hyde as a handcuff. Brown has a rough matchup against the Jets this weekend but he plays Da Raidas the following week. Middle-of-the-pack matchups after that which Mathews might be back for.

im not cutting either of those guys unless theres a true stud out there or you need a starter

Any word on Beaterson?

Also, what do you think of Forsett vs. McKinnon vs. Royal?

Doesn't he have a 10/8 trial scheduled?

IMO if you've stashed him this long, may as well wait till then. Picture should become way more clear.

and i dont think oggy is the best panther add. reaves has been on the roster all year so id imagine he is first in line. oggy may be a 3rd down and change of pace back.
if Miller keeps up his good play Moreno will be seeing far less snaps.

Guys, never bet on the Carolina running game unless super desperate. This has been a losing proposition for about 3-4 years now. Let someone else take them. You won't miss out on anything of consequence.

Just a Mort report that the Vikings aren't planning for AP to come back.

For the next week or two, I rank those:

Royal
Forsett
McKinnon

Ros:
McKinnon
Forsett
Royal

Royal is filling the hole left by Wiodhead/Mathews. Rivers is a short game guy and he doesn't have those RBs. When Mathews is back, thinking royal goes back to being just a guy.

Still think McKinnon has a great shot of taking that #1 job. It just may take while because Asiata is looking legit behind a sneaky good OL.

Am I wrong to think DSTs are less juicy this week?
NFL Waiver Wire - Week 5 Quote
10-01-2014 , 03:37 AM
I was just thinking that.

Think Cleveland is a pretty solid option looking at the standard WW bunch. Should be a low scoring game. A few others I don't hate but wouldn't love would be GB v Min and NO v TB.
