ppr

fleener @ car
ebron v atl (I'm starting riddick if that matters)

wentz v nyg
winston @ min

and one league where thanks to injuries my rb2 situation is total aids:

gio @ GB
richard @ was

leans listed first

Fleener has been playing well so far this year so I lean him over Ebron who I don't think is very good

I actually kinda lean Winston since both matchups are against good defenses and Winston has more talent to throw to than Wentz

Gio seems like the right play, more likely to have a bigger workload

Think I go Diggs, Lee, Engram.

Giants OL is atrocious, big red zone target, and Philly got eaten up by Kelce last week. Should see some extra help on OBJ opening up more stuff.

I have no faith in decker or agholor in those matchups. Diggs QB sucks and Lee's does too with a terrible matchup to boot. But they are the most talented options and when everything is iffy I just start the best players.

There's an argument to Lockett over Lee and I don't hate it. I just think Blake "garbage time king" Bortles can rack up some free yards.

Yea my initial lean was Lockett. It all goes back to what you need in the spot. High ceiling? Consistent points? Hell is Kendall Wright on waivers?

For me it's at QB this week. 6 pt all TD's.

Rivers who sucks vs KC
Cutler who may not throw a ton vs Jets
A Smith when you already own Hunt
Palmer who might be **** for good

Fleener has proven to just be a fringe TE1 at best over past three years. Ebron is more a more talented pass catcher, but has lacked ability to develop as he can't stay healthy. I'd start Ebron in what could be a shootout between two dome teams (with DET being at home).

That's close. If youre matchup is close this week, I'd vote for Parker, as he's the more consistent WR3/flex (and has a good matchup this week). If you need help, I'd vote Bryant, who tends to be more boom or bust

any thoughts on that?

appreciate the feedback from everyone who gave it.

@ RBK

I would start either over diggs I think. Follow Amendola's progress to decide. Vikings probably try and ride their D and Cook at home. And Keenum sucks.

I start Wentz there. Giants D is banged up, Wentz will have plenty of volume, a little running upside, and Eagles D should dominate the O-line for giants. I think that will lead to NYG D being on the field way too much and wearing down.

Pick a crappy RB (non-PPR)

Perine @ OAK
K. Williams v DAL
Kamara @ CAR

Leaning Perine as he has the most upside against a bad Raiders run D, but he could also get zero touches like in week 1. Other two seem like they have slightly higher floors as they definitely will get some touches.

I think I would start Amendola over Diggs even if Bradford was playing.

Pick 3 out of 5 WRs. Standard scoring. Opponent had Gurley so I'm already in the hole 32 points going in to Sunday.

OBJ @ Philly
Crabtree @ Was
Cooks vs Hou
Adams vs Cinci
Tate vs Atl

Leaning OBJ, Crabtree, Adams

I think I would... how much work is Amendola going to get vs Houston?

PPR, would you put in either r matthews (vs SEA) or j matthews (vs DEN) over diggs with keenum?

All right, weird RB question-- who hits the bench for me?
Scoring system is 0.5 PPR, 0.5 rec FD, 1.0 rush FD

I. Crowell @IND
L. Miller @NE
C. Thompson vOAK
D. Henry vSEA

Lots of timeshare questions here. Crowell is the featured back but Indy has been defending the run well so far. Miller is the starter but Foreman's share is growing and he's been getting the short first-down carries instead of Miller. Thompson has a timeshare but also a clear role against a week defense. Henry could be the lead back (and if Murray is ruled out he obviously will be) and Seattle hasn't been playing that well against the run.

Soooo I'm seeing Kelley will be out. How does this affect anyone's equation here-- including the possibility of starting Perine?

That's tough. I think Riddick is the higher variance PPR play, meaning more upside, but feel like Miller is a better multi-TD guy. I vote Miller

Even though Cam is kind of hurt (if the rumors are correct), I like this idea.

I like Riddick a lot this week. Atlanta weak against pass catching backs and it should be a shootout. Riddick should see a good share. I am starting him in the 2 spots I have him and he is in just about all of my DFS entries.
