Thanks tarheal, wheatsauce & others for answering questions itt. I accepted Aaron jones for my Hilton & crowder.

...same .5 PRR dynasty just got offered

get diggs + John Ross
give Conner

current (start 2rb, 3wr, 2 flex)
saquon, Conner, aaron jones, cohen, c thompston
julio, amari, cooks, watkins, edelman, marvin jones, geronimo

Thinking about countering Conner for his diggs + Malcom Brown, but also thinking about bagging it because I like depth at rb and wr.

Conner's usage feels too expensive

No no no, Conner is still a beast, don't give up on him or sell low after one bad game.

While I don't mind buying low on Diggs, the Minnesota passing game is not something that I'm actively pursuing. Obv they will never have 10 attempts again, but they are def stuck hard on establishing the run. This can be somewhat discounted due to their skinny usage tree, but certainly not worth giving up one of the few bell-cow RBs on a good O with a good line cuz his team got Belicheked in week one.

That starting lineup looks pretty elite to me, seems like you have a good shot to take it down this year. Stop rostering Geronimo Allison everywhere though

Good luck!

Agreed. Need more for Conner.

The Steelers will rebound nicely this weekend. It’s the Big Ben way. He’s back at home.

Big Ben hates the road and hates Bill.

I think Hyde is worth more than a few guys on your team including Moncrief, Allison, and Mike Davis. I'd definitely drop Allison for him.

Hyde ran the ball very well last week. I think he might actually be a good flex play this week against his old team. Game flow could be very favorable for him.

Can't imagine any situations where you play Carr over a healthy Wilson, and if Wilson does get injured, you should be easily able to grab a QB just as good.

No need to roster a backup to Wilson, and you can pick up a new D every week and do well (though if you don't want to put in the effort to do so, just keeping Minnesota is fine).

You def need to throw some darts at RB and hope something sticks. I'd order them something like Ronald Jones, Mattison, Hyde, Jackson, Gio (rest are pretty worthless) and put claims in for the Redskins guys and Ito.

Good luck
Thanks for taking the time to add your thoughts. Appreciate it. DEF seems like GK in FPL, you can either stick with one or find a home/away rotation pair. Except in FF I suppose since you have unlimited roster moves you don't really need a backup because your starting defense will never be a healthy scratch.

Dropped Ebron to reaquire Ronald Jones. I'm last in the waiver list so I'm going to let the waivers go through and see what's left tomorrow.

you can't go wrong playing against jameis

the defense's biggest problem is cams turnovers on their own half of the field

So I have Tyreek Hill...

Someone offered Antonio Brown to me for Hill. Bottom line, both have the same relative value to me, it's close enough that I'm not worried about "who's the better player" at this point. I'm trying to figure out if I'm better off offloading Hill's 4-6 week timeframe, which could be longer (or even shorter, the injury isn't completely predictable for recovery times), for AntBro's likely play in week 2, but possible suspension or this exempt list bullshit by Goodell...

Zeke's case was similar to AB's so I'm thinking worst case scenario is 6 games. However, there's the exempt list (where he'd be inactive but still paid which screws anyone who owns him) and the possibility that suits to delay the suspension mean he sits weeks 10-16 or some ****, meaning I wouldn't have him for the playoffs. Or no suspension and I get a tier 1 WR for an extra X weeks over Hill.

I'm leaning toward taking AB, because if I had to bet now, AB gets suspended 4-6 games, possibly appealing to less. Hill getting leveled by Ramsey just makes me think this is going to be a bad season for him, possibly karma for his past transgressions or sth. They might not activate him right away either if KC is winning games and I can't afford to go without an elite player half the season.

I guess the real question is how many games can we reasonably expect AB to play with NE?

How many games can we reasonably expect Hill to play?

I can't seem to talk myself into confidence one way or the other. Thoughts?

I don't think 12 games is unreasonable for Brown. Can't believe I'm saying this about an intra-positional deal, but Brown for Hill feels lose-lose.

Brown can play zero games or 12 games at the same production as Hill.

Hill can easily get reinjured or come back to an offense less concentrated as Watkins emerges from the dust.

Feels more like trading risk than getting any production edges.

Any thoughts on trading Latavius Murray for Allen Robinson or DeSean Jackson .5 PPR

Hill being undervalued ITT. Not sure if I'd trade Hill for AB. It would depend on if I felt good enough about my team to hold until Hill returns.

Sure, if AB plays the full season, AB is the better player at this point. But I'd say at this point, AB is less likely to be around by fantasy playoff time than Hill.

You at least know, or like to feel very confident, once Hill is back he's back. Sure, he could get injured again, but so can anyone else. I don't think Hill will run into anymore issues with his situation.

Lol at Hill being concerned with Sammy Watkins. Sammy will be injured by the time Hill returns, anyways. It's pretty much a guarantee. It'll be a perfect transition back into prime WR1 roll for Hill.

Allen Robinson may be a steal. Should be strong for quantity, regardless of quality, of targets.

DJax may be an even deal. He's boom-bust. Latavius is unknown, may become super safe, but we can guess that his ceiling is capped.

Obviously depends a bit on your team/starting roster positions but I would trade latavius for both of those guys. ARob preferred.

Fair. The risk is higher with Brown, I'll concede. We are on the same page that the skill difference doesn't really matter.

AB still has to learn the book, which takes time, and has manage to obtain some sort of composure. The general consensus seems to be that something out of Brown's control is guiding his behavior. So being a better football player could be irrelevant. I'm carrying this really high ceiling on my shoulder, though. It could be completely irrational.

Does Desean Jackson still feel boom or bust in Philly? I know, I know, his whole career has been a boom or bust circus. However, he did receive 10 targets in week 1. Is that closer to the norm or a fluke?

2018 - No games with double digit targets, average of 6.2 a game

2017 - 2 games with double digit targets both at 10 targets, average of 6.42 a game

2016 - 2 games with double digit targets both at 10 targets, average of 6.67 a game

2015 - No games with double digit targets, average of 4.9 a game

I'll stop there, but if DJ can bump up his average to 7-9 targets a game, he may have less bust than usual.

What I'm saying is I really like what happened in game 1 with his new QB. Wentz is the best QB he's had in a while.

I think it's pretty irrational even if AB is out there, but who knows? AB will have some good games, but the Pats just spread it around so much.

I dunno man. I wonder if the targets are also him. He's what, 5-10? And doesnt work underneath very much. He is older so if the football IQ has improved to work dudes and create space underneath, youre right. I wanna see more of it to believe it. If he were taller or had more inside/underneath history, I would be more inclined to have faith in this newer volume receiver.

If there's a redeeming quality in AB's football acumen, it's that he runs great routes in Brady's sweet spots. He isn't a downfield dart, go up and get it guy.

The downside to AB is that he needs volume whereas Hill can get his 90 and a TD on 3-4 balls. AB needs the volume, so you may be right.

Is Vance/Hockenson + Godwin too much for Cooks in .5ppr? My 2wr + flex would then be OBJ, Allen, and Cooks. I offered Hockenson + Marvin Jones but I’m assuming it gets rejected

The guy had Henry and doesn’t have another te, best avail is reed or eifert
