Week 13 Questions For Bloom (1 Viewer)

I currently have Funchess as my WR2. If Lattimore plays, do I leave him or go with Shepard or Demaryius?

 
Hey Sig!

I’m in a standard league and need to start three out of these four players: Burkhead, Anderson, Funchess, and Marvin Jones. Which guy do I bench? Thx!! 

 
12 team standard league and part of the reason why I have a 1st round bye is because of your podcasts and feedback.

QB:  Brady, Cousins, Rodgers

RB:  Gordon, Burkhead, McKinnon, Ekeler

WR:  Cooks, Adams, Doctson, Goodwin, C. Davis

TE:  Kelce, Henry

Flex:  Kamara

The bolded is my starting lineup looking ahead weeks 15,16.  I'm not sure if I should keep a backup TE in case something happens to Kelce.  Should I drop either Henry or Goodwin (or any other bench player) for any of these available waiver stashes?  Booker, Parker, Dede.  I'm very concerned about my WR3 which is currently Doctson.

Need one RB in a non-PPR, standard format::: Booker @ MIA, Gore @ JAX, Aaron Jones (if he plays) @ TB

 
Non-PPR and need to pick a WR3 - Kearse for the safe floor or Dede Westbrook for the upside with Hurns out?

If for some reason McCaffrey doesn't play Sunday - would you start J-Stew over Devonate Booker then?

 
hey sig. who starts in PPR?

RB2- Jacquizz or Darkwa

Pick 2- Josh Gordon, Ted Ginn, Kyle Rudolph

Thanks!

 
Hi Bloom,

couple important decisions.  All 0.5 PPR.

1.  Need 2:  ESanders, TColeman, LMurray, DParker

2.  Goodwin or JuJu?

thank you

 
Hey sir,

Ppr league

Pick 1 please

Wr- demaryius thomas, marqise lee or Corey Coleman

Rb- rex burkhead or woohead

Tight end- Hunter Henry or doyle

Thank you

 
Heya Bloom,

For a 1/2 PPR I need to start 2 of the following:

  • Dion Lewis
  • Rex Burkhead
  • Jerrick McKinnon


In a vacuum I like Lewis and Burkhead, but am I okay starting both? Is that okay since they effectively play two different roles (with some overlap) ala Kamara/Ingram?

From listening to you over the years, this approach may increase my floor but reduce my ceiling; however, since I'm matched up pretty evenly against my opponent this week, perhaps this is the correct approach? 

Let me know - thanks!

 
Sig, thanks for doing this, as always. 

In PPR, where I've already played Dez and Doctson, I need to pick 2 WR/RB Flex from the the following:

  • Melvin Gordon
  • Joe Mixon
  • Jamaal Williams
  • Kenyan Drake
  • Rex Burkhead
For context, the rest of my lineup is:

  • QB: Brady
  • RB: Bell
  • WR: Dez, Doctson (already done)
  • TE: #Gronksmash
Thanks!

Hey Sig!

1 PPR Redraft

RB 1&2: Kamara, Ingram

WR 1&2: Julio, Crowder

Flex (Pick 1): Howard, Mixon, Burkhead, JuJu

Kicker (ROS): Bryant or Elliott

Also: Should I drop Ted Ginn and add Jordy Nelson @ WR5 (short bench-looking at a possible Week 15 return for A. Rodgers)?

Thanks Sig!!

 
12 team, PPR, 2 flex spots, #1 seed... who do I drop (if any) to pickup Conner? Also can pickup Cadet as well. 

QB- Prescott & Carr

RB- Gordon, Kamara, Lynch, Perone, Woodhead

WR- Thomas, Allen, Watson, Dotson, Parker, Davis

TE- Clay

Thanks Sig...

i would play the NE backs, agreed limits team wide ceiling to an extent, but raises floor

QB question. 4 pts per TD pass.

* M. Mariota vs HOU -- Great matchup but hard to trust.

* J. McCown vs KC -- Good matchup, he's performed, for some reason not considered a QB1.

* M. Ryan vs MN -- Horrible matchup, probably a safe floor.

Can't play it safe. Need upside.

Which?

Thanks

 
Defense question:

* BALT D vs Detroit -- Stafford could put up points, but outside of dome and no running game.

* CHI vs SF -- Jimmy G starting.

* OAK vs NYG -- Geno starting. OAK a terrible D though.

Which?

Thanks

 
PPR league. Need one for flex and one for RB slot.

* J. McKinnon @ATL -- Murray has stolen the show, but ATL terrible vs. RBs receiving out of the backfield.

* D. Booker @MIA -- Has out touched CJ but still RBBC and hasn't taken over.

* S. Shepard @OAK -- Great matchup, but hasn't played in a couple of weeks and the Geno factor.

* D. Henry vs HOU -- Is this the week he takes over? Not the greatest matchup.

Which?

Thanks

 
Defense question:

* PIT @CINC -- Usually low scoring, but Steeler secondary looks leaky lately.

* DEN @MIA -- Cutler back. Usually good for a couple turnovers. Talib out.

* CHI vs SF -- Jimmy G at the helm.

Which?

Thanks

 
2 from Hyde, McCaffrey and funchess? Or maybe even Jamaal Williams

Am thinking the 2 Panthers, as potential shoot out and reckon these 2 are now 70% of the offence. Thoughts?

 
A should I drop A. Abdullah question...

I have a first round bye in one league and I'm starting to get ducks in a row for matchups in week 15 and 16.

I have the following RB depth in addition to Abdullah:

* A. Kamara, C. Hyde, J. Ajayi, A. Collins, A. Morris, D. Booker

I also don't love AA's schedule week 15 and 16 vs CHI and @CINC respectively.

Areas I could improve dropping AA:
 

* Defense: Chicago (vs CLE week 16), DET (vs CHI week 15)

* WR: While I have AJ Green, A. Theilen, C. Davis I could add some upside in C. Hogan (who I could envision back for the Steelers in week 15), M. Bryant, or D. Westbrook.

* RB: Could gamble on M. Davis who faces LAR and @DAL respectively.

Drop AA?

If yes, would you lean towards a particular position/player?

Thanks

 
Bloom: 

Preemptive Week 14 defense question: Better defense to start In the first rd:

Balt D vs Pitt (great d but bad matchup)

Houston D vs San Fran (Does Jimmy G make this a less attractive matchup)

Buffalo D vs Indy (least appealing D, but best matchup) 

Appreciate your insight. 

 
nonppr...

I made it to to the playoffs with the bye.....wk15 semi and wk16 title...Thoughts

Here are couple players of note on wire - WR: Kupp, Goodwin -RB: Booker, Ekeler, Woody, Aaron Jones -QB: Keenum, McCown -TE:RSJ

* Who to drop hold etc..

start 1QB, 2WR, 2RB, 1wr/rb, 1TE, 1D, 1K
QB - Brady, BigBen
RB - Gurley, AP, Hunt, McKinnon, Perine, Zeke (sus)
WR - Baldwin, Crowder, Jones Jr, Josh Gordon, JuJu
TE - Engram
D - Jax, K - Bryant...

 
Do you like picking up P. Barber in a PPR dynasty league more than any of these dudes I'm currently rostering?  I'm going to make the playoffs and could use some RB depth.

Charkandrick West
Travaris Cadet
Rod Smith
Johnathan Williams (Guessing Ingram will leave this offseason if he makes the Pro Bowl)
Thomas Rawls (2018 FA, but not sure what he's worth dynasty wise)

 
Hey Sig,

Need to choose one flex from the following options - non-ppr:   Rex Burkhead, Larry Fitz, Doug Baldwin, Adrian Peterson.

Preesh!!!

 
Drake, Lewis, lynch, crow. Need to start 2.

14-man full ppr

Would u start Gordon over diggs, fitz, golden Tate? 

 
Hey Bloom,

I have a great problem to have, 4 great WRs but only 3 starting spots for them

PPR scoring, pick 3 of:

Adam Thielen at ATL
Mike Evans at GB
Davante Adams vs TB
Robbie Anderson vs KC

Thanks for your time and help!

Flip flopping @ QB between Goff, Rivers & McCown. Can only start 1. Have Rivers in now.

Also unsure who to go with @ WR. (Start 3) Evans is in of course, but Landry has a tough match up this week. Have to pick 2 out of Landry, T. Hill, Kupp, Diggs.

Then must decide who to go with @ flex between who is left above or L. Miller, A. Collins, Murray.

TIA!
