Hey now, Bloom --

In TD-only scoring, my opponent already has 3 scores (Evans, Brate) and will start Dak, Zeke, and Dez.  I'm starting Cam, Booker, Doyle.. then panicking.

--C West, Montgomery, Mathews, or Henry @ RB2 (leaning West now).

--2 WR from Moncrief, Hilton, Pryor, C Coleman, Montgomery (This one makes me lose the sleep).

Thanks for grinding through illness and providing best-in-the-biz analysis, all the while

non-ppr; need a 2nd RB.  Peyton Barber, Paul Perkins, or pick up Ripnewski (sp) from GB?

Damn bye week & injuries!

 
Need a potential fill-in for Ware (unless he beats odds and plays on Sunday). Options are extremely bare, :( : 

0.5 PPR

Don Jackson vs, IND

Aaron Ripkowski vs. IND

Paul Perkins vs. PHI

Mike Davis vs. NO

Dwayne Washington vs. MIN 

None of these are remotely good, but which long-shot would you pick??

Hope you recovered from your illness, and thanks as always!

Hey Sigmund,

I need to pick up a TE this week off waivers.  Should I hold on to Martellus Bennett and drop JJ Nelson to enable the TE pick up (probably Pitta)?  Or hold on to JJ  Nelson and drop Bennett and pray I can get Bennett back via the waiver wire next week?   (Only 5 bench spots so not much room to work).  

Flex question:  Baldwin or Allen Robinson?

My team:  

Philip Rivers 

Ware, Gore, Forte, Derrick Henry

Doug Baldwin, Allen Robinson, Ty Montgomery, Mike Thomas, AJ Green, JJ Nelson

Martellus Bennet 

Much thanks!!

0.5 PPR League.

Need one RB from this group:

* M. Ingram @SF -- Great matchup but does he get out of the doghouse.

* T. Hightower @SF -- Ditto, but does he get enough touches.

* L. Murray vs DEN -- Tough matchup.

* D. Harris vs NO - looks like Hyde out.

Which one?

Thanks.

0.5 PPR.

Need to bench one of these guys:

* M. Jones @MN -- Tough matchup.

* T. Pryor vs DAL -- Dallas down a couple corners. Coleman back though.

* D. Moncrief @GB -- Looks healthy. Shootout.

Who to bench?

Thanks

 
4 points per passing TD. Need to pick one of these guys who are all streaming candidates this week (besides Stafford):

* M. Stafford @MN -- Horrible matchup, but he'll be throwing.

* T. Semian @OAK -- Great matchup, but he may not air it out despite the matchup.

* M. Mariota @SD -- Has been rolling but SD D at home seems underrated. May have to keep up with Rivers though. D. Walker dinged up.

* R. Tannehill vs NYJ -- Great matchup but he's let us down before. Offense may want to be run oriented.

* C. Kaepernick vs NO -- Jeesh. Great matchup. Has a running floor, but is this too cute? Risk / floor could be benching mid game. Also, NO getting a couple defenders back and it doesn't seem like NO has been that bad lately. Feel like everyone jumping on this option.

* S. Bradford vs DET -- Best matchup, but o-line woes plus o-coordinator gone could mean conservative attack.

* E. Manning vs PHI -- Could Eli outperform coming off the bye? Philly with two consecutive road games.

NOTE: I need upside. Just got bombed by Matt Ryan.

Which one?

Thanks

PPR league. I'm desperate for a flex due to bye and injury issues. 

Need one:

* CJ Prosise vs BUF -- Role increasing. 

* K. Stills vs NYJ -- Great matchup. Snap counts up. Could get loose deep.

* D. Inman vs TN -- Decent matchup. Benjamin banged up along with H. Henry. Note: I am already starting Tyrell Williams.

* K. Wright @SD -- Has been coming on, but snap counts are still low.

* D. Harris vs NO -- If Hyde is inactive, somebody has to run the ball and it looks like Harris has moved ahead of M. Davis.

Who?

Thanks.

Thanks in advance for all your help.  12 team league, standard scoring, PPR

Start Ty Williams vs Tenn  or K. Wright @ SD

Thanks again!

 
QB question: Have Carr, but Wilson on waivers. Considering picking up Wilson and dropping Carr with Denver and a bye coming up. Normally Don't like carrying 2 QBs so who do you like ROS. Or carry both and stream. 

Hope you're feeling better and safe travels

Thanks

 
FYI I'm traveling this weekend and probably won't be able to get to everything but I'll do what I can. TIA
Just wanted to offer a "thank you" to you for your dedication in coming in here week after week, and putting out definitive answers to people's tough questions.

Not easy, and probably mostly thankless.  But FBGs is a better place for this weekly thread.

Salute to Mr. Bloom!

 
Hey Sig,

In 0.5PPR league, need to pick 3 

McKinnon, Enunwa, Corey Coleman, Tim Hightower, Tyreek Hill

Thanks!

Would you trade Forte (and potentially bench depth like Lee and Brate) for Jordan Reed?  PPR.  1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 2 RB/WR/TE

My team is:

QB - Carr

RB - Forte, Riddick, Tevin, Asiata, Quizz, Peyton Barber, Starks, Farrow

WR - Antonio Brown, Cooper, Baldwin, Marqise Lee, JJ Nelson, Michael Floyd, Inman

TE - Fiedorowicz, Gates, Brate, Hunter Henry

 
Hi Sig! Safe travels. If you get to this, here's my dilemma: standard scoring with 5 point for 100 yards.

Ajayi, Sproles, Moncrief, Hightower, Micheal Thomas, Davantea Parker, Green-Beckham

Pick 3

Rivers or Wilson

Thanks again my man!

Hi Sig, enjoy your trip! If you get time...

Trust Ingram or roll with Hightower?

Also, in flex need to stay with Moncrief or take a shot on C.Coleman. I figure his effectiveness probably depends on whether McCown plays or not? Wait a week on Coleman and stay with Moncrief?

Thanks!

 
Sup sig, 

hope you are feeling better. 

Need one flex out of(.5ppr):

marvin jones

coats

mccoy/gillislee

also, drop alf for Dixon or Perkins? I am not a zeke owner. Would b my RB 5. Ty

thanks

Then for RB and flex, need three from the following: sproles, t west, Duke Johnson, d Henry, Quincy enuwa, pitta and hightower?

Thanks!

Hey Sig!

I have the 'pleasure' of owning Ingram and Hightower - who gets the start as RB2 (Bell locked-in as RB1 the rest of the way)?

 
Hi Sig,

12 team standard, non-PPR.  

Kenny Britt, Derrick Henry or Don Jackson?

Lance Kendricks, Zach Ertz or Richard Rodgers?

Thanks!

 
Hi Bloom.

.5 ppr need 2 RBs and 1 FLEX from these players:  Sproles/Duke/Prosise/Marv Jones

.5 ppr need 2 FLEX from these players: Shark West/Marv Jones/Gurley/Dev Adams  ( i have Zeeke as my RB1 and BMarsh as my WR1 short bench league; if BMarsh isnt the best start I'd be willing to sit him for one of the WR above fwiw)

.5 PPR need 1 FLEX from these players: Crabtree/Michael Thomas/Prosise

Thanks!

 
IDPs for you Bloom, pick one...

  1. Nathan Stupar LB NO vs SF (Ellerbe out, Laurinaitis out)
  2. Shaq Lawson LB BUF vs SEA (LAlexander hammy questionable)
  3. Robert Blanton DB BUF vs SEA (AWilliams on IR)
  • .5 solo
  • .5 assist
  • 3 sack (1.5 for 1/2)
  • 3 int
  • .5 pd
 
Have been riding Stafford and am making preemptive pickup of a bye week QB...we also have a doubleheader week12 and I'm not enthused about starting him vs Minn.  So looking for a week10/week12 starter.

Options:

Flacco..wk10 CLE wk12 CIN

Wentz...wk10 ATL wk12 GNB

Who do you like?  4pt TD, 250 yd threshold for yardage scoring. (2 pts for 250, then 1pt/25 yd after that)

Would you start either one Week9?

5-3 Tied with 3 others for 1st. Need a kicker this week and would rather trade than drop.

Looking at the last place team 3-5 roster, only one I would trade for is McCoy.

Thinking about offering CMike, White & Rudolph for McCoy. 

I know I'm giving up more, though opening up space for kicker and WW pick ups of Diggs/T Williams/Crowder/JJ Nelson (League is RB hogs)
