Got Coates and Hogan on the waiver this week, and if Smith is out need to decide between Desean, Coates or Hogan for the WR2 spot.

I'd go Coates without a doubt.

+1

(Real GM needs to figure out how to implement that feature via phones)

I'm tracking that hand injury...at this point, kind of hoping Steve Smith is out so Pitta gets extra volume and then go with Coates. Just not sure I am totally on board the hype train with Coates yet.

He was tied with Brown and Bell in targets last week, and number 1 the week before. Roethlisberger gave him the deep balls early on, and I think the trust has officially developed. He's the number 2 moving forward IMO.

Looking for trade advice.

I was offered Tom Brady and Isaiah Crowell in exchange for my Melvin Gordon and Ryan Tannehill. Tannehill is primarily my backup (Bortles), while Melvin is my #2 back (Zeke Elliott, Tevin Coleman, Derrick Henry, Rashad Jennings). Obviously this is a very nice upgrade at QB, but I generally feel content with Bortles, and think the combo of Zeke and MG3 has been a ++ one thus far. Not that I think MG3 will keep scoring at a record-breaking clip, but I don't have much faith in Crowell keeping his production up with the Browns' offense.

Thoughts?

Jump at it. I think Crowell is the better option moving forward.

Gordons Opponent Ranks YPC: 27th, 14th, 28th, 26th, 30th
Crowells Opponent Ranks YPC: 12th, 7th, 20th, 32nd, 11th

Somehow Gordon is still averaging 3.4 ypc vs. Crowell's 5.6. All things considered, if Gordon isn't getting into the endzone 7 times in 5 games, this isn't even a question. I like Gordon because he gets touches, but I still think the touchdowns make his situation look rosier than it should. The Badger connection doesn't help.

Even if you disagree, the gap between Bortles and Brady vs Crowell and Gordon still skews it in your favor.

Got offered B Marsh and J Reed for M. Gordon, Crabtree and Barnridge. Standard and I'm stacked at RB with Gordon as my 2nd or 3rd RB behind Johnson and Ingram.

Yay or nay?

Reed is being looked at for concussion so that might be risky. That would pretty much make it a 1:3

Very interesting situation that I could use some input on.

My 4th WR is Travis Benjamin, currently ranked 61 in our 0.5 PPR scoring system. Drafted 8th round. I'm sitting in third place.

The best team (by a fair margin) in the league offered me his 2/3rd WR in Terrell Pryor (he's been starting DeSean Jackson over him recently for some reason), currently ranked 62 in our system. Drafted 15th round. It would be straight up for Benjamin.

The only viable keeper that I have for next season is Dion Lewis in the 12th round, and he's a huge unknown. Both Pryor and Benjamin are depth players for me right now. Benjamin in the 8th is not an attractive keeper, but Pryor in the 15th is. I am worried about Pryor's targets once Coleman comes back. I don't thnk I'll have to worry about Benjamin's targets.

Would you make that deal?

Looks like I found my tightend in Hunter Henry. Was worried Gates would take touches away from him but nope.

Too bad the Packers didn't get him....looks like Greg Olsen.

Best PPR RB pickup?

James White (Looks good with Brady)
Jaquizz Rodgers (On Bye, Hamster may be back after bye)
Duke Johnson (Offense sucks)
Bobby Rainey (Other RBs hurt)

Oh Henry. Gates/Rivers were off all night. Rivers was clearly irritated. But where did Henry go for most of the 2nd? I won't complain about 20 pts, but I get greedy.

Hyde, Crowell, West

Pick 2. Standard Scoring.

I'd go with the first two, just based on match-ups and workload. We were able to run on the Giants, but I don't trust that the Ravens will be. Also, Dixon could start to get more work any week now.

They just stopped passing outside of screens. Sucked for me because my league is huge on 100 yards receivers and it should've been at least 130.

Bortles/Ertz are REALLY killing me today. :banghead:

Profound23 · Post #475 » by **Profound23** » Sun Oct 16, 2016 8:17 pm

Thank you to Beckham for finally getting it going today. Hopefully Hopkins does the same tonight.

Profound23 · Post #476 » by **Profound23** » Mon Oct 17, 2016 11:45 am

So is Ajayi worth the #1 waiver or was that just a one week thing? I'm scared to add him and they go back to Foster next week.

Profound23 · Post #477 » by **Profound23** » Wed Oct 19, 2016 6:58 pm

Dropped my def and kicker to pick up Knile Davis and Don Jackson just to see how this works tomorrow.

If one of them does well I will drop the other and Kenneth Dixon to pick up another kicker or def

I had Dwight Allen at TE in my 16 team league. He's probably not going to play this week. I picked up Vernon Davis but it looks like Jordan Reed might play now. I can try to pick up Eric Ebron for Friday's waiver request, but I don't see much out there suggesting he'll play this week. Probably the next best TE out there I could pick up would be the Houston Texans' guy.

Any suggestions on what I should do? I think I'll just have to wait for more info to come out on Reed and Ebron.

Profound23 · Post #479 » by **Profound23** » Wed Oct 19, 2016 9:56 pm

Assuming Doyle (and anyone else worthy Cameron Brate...etc) is gone I would go with Richard Rodgers this week. No run game means a lot of throwing.

If you need a huge sleeper Marquez Gray is going to be the starting TE in Miami

IrishRainbow · Post #480 » by **IrishRainbow** » Thu Oct 20, 2016 3:03 am

PPR - Need a RB2 (RB1-Bell), WR2 (WR1 - Fitz), Flex out of Michael*, Ingram, T.Coleman, B.Cooks*, D.Hopkins*

*currently slated

Other lesser possibilities include Duke Johnson and T.Benjamin

I never liked the Ingram pick and am starting to worry about Hop/Oz connection. I'm betting Chistine remains a horse and a TD vulture. Cooks always blows up on the bench and pissed in the line up. Oddly I still don't know what to think of Coleman. I think he's got a better matchup this week but I certainly can't afford <5pts.
