I'll be starting Miller and one other running back in the group. My WR choices for flex are Tajae Sharpe or Golden Tate.

Do you think spending 40 FAAB points (out of 100 point budget) for Jordan Howard is too much? He'd be a starting RB for 4-6 weeks and could be used as a flex option moving forward.

Do it. Howard is going to see a ton of work every week, he's a borderline RB1 from here on out, IMO.

Got offered Antonio Brown for Todd Gurley and Marvin Jones Jr.

Do I sell high? I'd then have Brown, Dez, Cooper as my starting WR/FLEX, but would leave me with guys like Sims, Coleman, Latavius as starters at RB--which might be okay since this is a PPR league.

I don't think so. I mean it certainly solidifies your WR1 but at a cost. I'm thinking ADP is fairly even for Gurley/Brown. I'm a huge AntB fan, but i think its more a case of you you giving away MJJ than it is 'selling high'. I think you'd have to ask for at least a RB2/RBflex type as well.

Palmer or Rivers?

neiLz · Post #345 » by **neiLz** » Wed Sep 28, 2016 1:42 pm

Got offered : Odell and Matt Jones
Giving up : CJ Anderson and Travis Benjamin
1 pt ppr
6 pt td recep

Lineup would be :

RB Riddick
RB Lesean Mccoy
WR Antonio Brown
WR Demaryius Thomas
WR Odell
WR Jordan Matthews
TE Julius Thomas/Delanie Walker

Have to start 3 WR's each week. I am fine with my WR's without Odell. But having 3 absolute studs would be awesome. Question is, do I risk losing my RB production and what is the drop off?

My running backs are J. Charles, L. Blount, L. Murry and S. Ware. Do I take a risk and drop Ware with Charles coming back soon and grab Kenneth Dixon on the Ravens while he's available? or am I better off dropping a WR like Fuller, cobb, E. Sanders or T. Williams. Its a PPR Leauge.

Would you guys start Luck or Tannehill this week? Thanks!

Standard Scoring: AntB, Cooper, Dez, T.Benjamin, Landry, Pryor, Gordon

Probably need WR1/WR2/Flex. Currently sitting with Brown/Bennie/Pryor

Brown, obvious play. The other ones I'm changing probably every time I open my team.

Leaning Pryor just for the multitude of ways he may be scoring points as I see he's also getting credit for passing yards, which obviously isn't going to be the main cog, but it's a nice bonus. He might just be their best option.

Dez seems likely a GTD?

Cooper has been a royal disappointment.

Bennie is just getting into the #1 role and consistency is an issue, but the matchup seems intriguing.

Landry is more of a PPR guy and is probably fringe WR2 if he isn't finding the endzone.

Gordon - N/A at the moment.

I'd love to consolidate the assets, but haven't had much luck.

With Charles you NEED is cuff. If those are bench WRs I'd look to move one of them. W/O looking up any of them (besides Fuller, whom I just dropped for Pryor) I couldn't tell you which one though)

I think both have tasty matchups and typically I'd raise an eyebrow over such a debate, but it's closer than one might think. I'm rolling out Luck myself, but that's over Tyrod. I think I might actually lean Tanny. That said, I'd be awfully weary of having Luck on the bench and watch him go for 400/3.

Thanks, Luck had negative then 0 in the first half, but came back with 29 points in my league, while Tannehill has been consistently getting about 33.

Thanks...I leaned that way this morning. We'll see how I feel Sunday AM and whether I keep the safety on or if o get a itchy trigger finger.

Those debating stream quarterbacks: go pick up Alex Smith. Has the most glorious schedule coming up for the next 5 or 6 weeks.

Yep scooped him up late last week to play matchups with palmer.

I don't need either of these, but it seems like a good week to burn Waiver Priority #1 :

Howard or Pryor

I'm leaning Howard, but Pryor's triple threat last week is super enticing.

Profound23 · Post #358 » by **Profound23** » Wed Sep 28, 2016 11:04 pm

If you are really dead set on burning the waiver use it for Howard. I just worry about Fox and his hatred for rookie running backs. He went out and signed Joquie Bell. I think Howard gets one week to prove his worth, if not Kadeem Carey comes back and I think Fox will give him and Bell some carries too.

I have Howard in both leagues, picked him up when Abdullah went down because I watched MNF and saw him get a few good plays.

I wouldn't have wasted waivers on him when you have guys like Smallwood and Dixon out there for free and in better offenses.

I don't think so. I mean it certainly solidifies your WR1 but at a cost. I'm thinking ADP is fairly even for Gurley/Brown. I'm a huge AntB fan, but i think its more a case of you you giving away MJJ than it is 'selling high'. I think you'd have to ask for at least a RB2/RBflex type as well.

Ended up turning it down, but oddly enough got and accepted another offer of Elliott/Lacy for Gurley/Latavius. I think Elliott/Gurley are equals, with the edge to Elliott because he's got the best offensive line in the game in front of him and a threat of a pass game. Both backs will get heavy volume, but I think Zeke has more success moving forward. I also love the matchups for GB and Lacy moving forward, he should be finding the pay dirt a lot more in the near future.

A benifit to Lacy right now is that he's not splitting carries with Starks almost at all outside of a few plays a game. With today's RB by committee being the norm that ups his fantasy value a good deal
