I basically signed every running back I could.


Lindsay has been too good to pass up I think, unless you have specific concerns.
Justin, it is nice having a back in that offense, but if Gordon plays you might **** yourself.
Sony got a lot of touches and frankly, I would want action in that game, could be a high scoring game.
McCoy would def be out for me, think he has a hamstring issue, no need to take the risk when you have other guys in the tier.
Has Freeman done enough to warrant consideration?
Kerryon has been out three weeks and Blount has been ok, not sure I would take the risk.
Adams, I like him but he has put up some stinkers.
Wilson is a bit of a wild card, not sure Breidas status which would complicate things.

So in summary, I think, if I were you, I'd narrow it to Lindsay, Sony and maybe JJ if Gordon is out...just appears to be the 'least risky' thing you could do. But you also have a lot of guys that are the back up where the starter might be playing, or starters that are hurt or coming off injury, so probably would be watching the inactives extra closely this week.

Stressing over my WR2 and Flex, my options:
Larry Fitzgerald
Dante Pettis
Daesean Hamilton
Elijah McGuire
Ian Thomas
Kerryon Johnson
(Jaylen Samuels has TE eligibility in yahoo, because it's trash, so he's slotted in there)

Taywan Taylor, Kenny Stills, Robert Foster, Jordy Nelson, Robby Anderson among those available on the waiver wire.

Have another dilemma now with this Tyreek Hill foot thing. Dammit.

Might have to put in Landry afterall.

High score in the league, by a good margin. Lost by 6 points today while starting Keenan Allen, Aaron Jones and Saquon Barkley.

I hate fantasy football sometimes.

I got cute and put in the Dallas kicker (dome game) over Crosby. Feared it would have been a game where FG weren’t going to help. Those points would have me in the lead right now. Now I need Cooks to outscore NO def by 14.

I feel you. I had the 2nd highest. Had Keenan Allen, along with practical no-shows from Jared Cook and Tyreek Hill. If I hadn’t benched Jones for Cohen, I’d be pretty much done.

I still have Brees and Kamara going tomorrow, but it will take at least 60 combined points.

Me too, I had Jones and K Allen as well. OBJ with the late scratch, luckily Tevin Coleman kept it somewhat respectable as flex replacement ... Still hoping for third place next week, and getting a little scratch for all the effort.
I needs shades for this future thing we owning..... 8-) 8-) 8-)

Reading similar stories here and listening to the chatter, it sounds like a lot of people with really good teams got burned this week.

I predict an uptick in DFS participation next year.

Yeah, snuck into the championship with a bad week in one league and put up just over half of my weekly average points for in the semi's of my other league. In the latter league the top 2 seeds put up 140 ppr pts combined...

Definitely very likely that the top teams had relatively similar players carrying them there and therefore got burned when everyone seemed to have a bad week at the same time.
