I'm starting to think the nut-high for owners would be he manages to keep dinking and dunking the courts till week 12 or so and then finally pays his 6 games. I'd love to be able to drop him definitively when it's time to and get that roster spot.

where are you getting your stats, because I only see 4 games over 10 points, which is half his games like I said.


anyway im not trying to trash Thielen. Id love to have him on any of my teams - as a flex or WR3.
My point is that if people are relying on him as an actual WR1 rest of season, there are probably major issues with their team. As a guy who was a late round flier, or even undrafted in some leagues he generally shouldn't be a good team's top WR. And I think we all agree that in standard (YPros for example), hes not even close to WR1 territory.

Also best case scenario for playoffs teams who don't own Zeke

at this point it would not surprise me at all. the NFL is so goddamn incompetent when it comes to disciplinary protocol. if they would just do things right the first time they wouldn't be in messes like this year after year.

Do you use any type of in-season ranking site or anything else as a second set of eyes on a potential trade, etc? If so, what?

as a Zeke owner I was kinda hoping to get this out of the way weeks 9-14 so I could have him for my key playoff matches, but if he beats the screwed-up NFL disciplinary system in court for the whole year, bonus.

Problem is its unlikely all options are closed by that time, so you may have to hold if there is a chance of either a reduced sentence or redemption.

Bahbahmickey I ise fftoday for a rest of way guide that is usually reasonable if only a tad slow to notice logical projections/changed expectations

I made what I think was a legit good offer to a guy who has Zeke (Morris + Devonta Freeman + one WR (Adams or Fuller)) and will need help to make the playoffs in a league where I look like a lock to get a bye, and he said it looked good and he would most likely accept it this afternoon. Then the news broke and I got the reject a few minutes later.

So close.

guess I don't look at them in depth but I do filter them sometimes and use them as a baseline. Saw a huge disagreement this week, I wasn't that optimistic on Shady last night and they had him at #2 flex for the week. I honestly looked at my roster looking to sit him(divisional matchup in a big game, on the road, Thursday, I had a bad feeling). their rankings look like they are composed of other sites people to, just a bunch of analysts combined. again, i never studied it too hard but i use them and don't mind them.

Watson owner here. There is NOTHING on the WW to roll with, especially for ROS. No backup QB gotta do something...

I'd prefer trading for Carr here in a non PPR


His team
Carr, Stafford
Ajayi, CJ Anderson, Gillislee
Cooper, Tate, Ginn, Lockett, Benjamin
Doyle

My team
NO QB
Hunt, Freeman, Woodhead
Julio, M Evans, Thielen, Westbrook
Ertz, Engram, Olsen

With Watson I had built a formidable force now I'm scrambling. Tried Thielen for Staff straight up and no. He tossed around Carr, Cooper, Ajayi for Julio, Thielen...

Tried Engram, he said I don't need TE I got Doyle. He's a stubborn, old school older guy.

Goff owner said he'd give me him for Engram ehhhh kinda have to.....

no one else has a QB to move for Engram? TE is pretty thin this year I feel like you would be able to find something pretty easily

No one that needs a TE. The teams that have QB's don't matchup well trade wise which blows. There's a guy who owns Dak/Cousins who think Cousins is worth stud RB and WR. Those discussions go nowhere.

Same here. I had resigned to my fate but was happy that I was going to get him back for championship weeks. Hopefully now he just stays available.

if WW is that depleted u snap the offer u mentioned. Carr + amari + Ajayi(now an eagle) for julio + theilien, this is like a huge win for your team

ATL + julio - trending way down, theilien has been bright
eh, Carr, little shaky on him but he has been pretty good, lets not have too short term of memories(if he can stay healthy). amari, same ****ing thing. Ajayi now an eagle, ****** gonna be chirping, TD's that is. get rid of one of your te's somehow.

in short, u are know picking up a reliable qb and not scrambling to WW each week in hopes to pick up a bottom half tier dude(more often than not the case esp in your league it sounds like). U also gain a rb instead of two wrs to get some balance + my views, IMO this is an easy trade....philly has had a bye week almost certain, raiders cant recall(small EV in difference whether they have or have not but would be nice if they have not had a bye)

Thomas and Cooks above. Cooper pretty close. Clearly ahead of KBenj, Jordy, DT and Shepard.
