standard league

Watson vs TEN or Mahomes vs PIT

choose 1 RB and 1 flex:


Barber vs PHI

Drake vs NYJ

Davis vs HOU

Gordon vs NO

AROB vs SEA

I like all of the WR matchups; not sure if I need to start both RBs in a standard league tho

I know the consensus is Watson. But I think if you want the better floor go Mahomes

Need to pick a WR and a flex

D. Freeman va CAR
D. Thomas vs OAK
Cobb vs MIN
R. Woods vs ARI
J. Wilkins @ WAS

Leaning Freeman (if not sitting) and Thomas, but obviously concerned that even if Freeman plays, he might play sparingly due to injury. Like Cobb but bad matchup.

I'd stick with Brady. Cards look so bad not sure how much Goff will pass in the second half.

Plus, while it's a small sample, Brady put up solid numbers last year in the playoffs against them.

Am I nuts for wanting to bench Davante Adams this week?

Just think with a gimpy Rogers, a gimpy Adams (shoulder) against X. Rhodes and the rest of the Minny D just makes this a bad spot. I am thinking he does very little this week. If Rogers plays it will be quick stuff out of the shotgun since he isn't fully mobile and his mobility is where he buys time to find guys like Adams. I usually get these decisions wrong

Have to start one and drop one for a kicker (short bench league):
Yeldon vs NE
Henry vs HOU
Carson @ SEA
Barber vs PHI

Feels like Yeldon is best this week but loses ~all value once Fournette comes back...drop Yeldon?

Have some flex decisions to make, all full PPR:

1. Duke Johnson @ NO or Marshawn Lynch @ DEN

2. Sterling Shepard @ DAL, Tarik Cohen vs SEA, or Matt Breida vs DET

3. Robby Anderson vs MIA or Jamaal Williams vs MIN

I was fully on board with Lynch but the top experts all strongly prefer Duke. I think Lynch has safer floor and more upside, so not sure what I'm missing here...

The other two are tricky since WR is always way over-ranked in comparison to RB under flex on fantasy pros. I think 2 is a complete flip, leaning towards rolling with Cohen right now. I think 3 is Robby, but not sure if I should expect more dump offs to Jamaal with a hobbled Rodgers or if Kizer starts.

What % chance do you think Fournette goes out there and aggravates? Seems like a decent % of the time.

See if you can dress a later game kicker to see first?

My thoughts are in bold up top.

1. I still think Duke catches 75+ balls this year, but week 1 was tough. I lean Duke, since I think this game is high scoring, whereas I'm off all things Oakland.

2. Lindsay just gashed that defense, and Cohen is "The Human Joystick" which is good enough for me.

3. I'm a Jets homer, but I don't like Robby Anderson at all. I think he's fast, but I think he's a bad NFL, thus FFB player. He's not a smart player (or human), and it seems like Darnold isn't dying to throw him the ball.

Agreed, but then who do I drop? Barber seems not so good but getting lots of opportunity, Carson/Henry both in splits but seem to be somewhat better players. (edit: my other RBs are Drake and Gio fwiw)

I like Duke, Cohen and Anderson. Especially Tarik, Seattle linebackers are all banged up and they couldn't stop anyone last week.

Pick 1 rb and 1 flex in PPR.
Ajayi - @TB
Thompson - Ind
Hyde - @NO
Crowell - Mia
Nelson - @Den
Michel - @Jax
Golladay - @SF
Stills - @NYJ
Westbrook - NE

Leaning Ajayi and Thompson. But I could be persuaded on Golladay or Stills.

I think you definitely have to play Godwin. If Fuller goes, I think you have to play him. He has the highest ceiling. Although hammy issues aren’t never fun.

I’d probably put Jordy third.

I don’t like Parker, Allison or Miller.

In a very similar situation. I have to choose between Crowell and Thompson for my flex in .5 PPR.

I currently have Crowell in there, but am having trouble deciding. So at this point I would have to say Ajayi and then it's really a toss up to me between Crowell and Thompson. Leaning Thompson honestly too.

Little help fellas?

10 team, .5 ppr
What combo should start among 2 rb, 2wr, and a flex spot? I am behind by 20 points and my K and D/ST are spent for the week, to one of my opponents WR's.

Davnte Adams(Q) (v. MIN)
TY Hilton (@ WSH)
Alvin Kamara (v. CLE) (obv in)
Lamar Miller (@ TEN)
Rex Burkhead(Q) (@ JAX)
Mike Evans (v. PHI)
Demaryius Thomas (v. OAK)
Tevin Coleman (v. CAR)

I am really trying to decide between Davante Adams, Demaryius Thomas, and Tevin Coleman for my flex spot. Davante Adams and Aaron Rogers injury status concerns me, as does the match up. Also, Tevin Coleman seemingly being the feature back seems like an interesting development for his deployment over one of my other guys.

You have to start Coleman with Freeman hurt now.

It's Kamara, Coleman, Adams ,Hilton and Evans for me.

all these seem like coin tosses. Anyone have any insight?

Pick 1 in standard:

Cobb vs Vikes (4pm)
Stills @ Jets (1pm so I may not know about Godgers yet)

Pick 1 ppr:

Chris Carson @ Bears (dat D!)
Lindsay @ Oak (lol dat D)


pick 2 ppr in this motley crew:

Kerryon Johnson @ SF
Ekeler @ Buf
Lindsay @ Oak
Barber @ PHI
