Week 13 Questions For Bloom (1 Viewer)

JoeMoney said:
Hi Mr. Bloom.

PPR League for rest of season, specifically weeks 15 and 16.  Looking for bench depth for playoffs as waivers lock next week  

McCoy or Penny at RB?

McLaurien or Samuel at WR?

thanks in advance!

 
Hope you had a good Thanksgiving with the family Sig,.  As always thanks for the help.

I'm very nervous that Mark Ingram wont be able to go Sunday, and need a backup plan.  The waiver wire is a wasteland.  I need 2 RB's, I'm starting McCaffrey and hopefully Ingram.  I sat D. Montgomery, my only other option,  my only other RB is Bonnafon.

Pick 1 WW scrub for me in case Ingram is a no go.  12 team, 1 PPR, standard scoring.

Barber @ Jax;  Wilson @ Balt;  Ajayi @ Mia;  Whyte vs Cle;  Burkhead @ Hou;  D. washington @ KC;  J. Hill vs SF - sadly this is the best available 
hope you did too!

 
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Hi. Trying to pick my last PPR flex. Presume Edelman, Landry and Melvin are starters. Already played Golladay and Cohen (he was probably a mistake)

So then I have to pick between Marquis Brown or Darrell Williams? Would it change if I am looking to go with the higher floor. no 

Thanks!

 
Right now im leaning this way in stamdard scoring...

RB. Carson and Lindsay

WR. Adams, Chark

Flex. DJ Moore

But can sub in K Allen, Miles Sanders or possibly Darrel Williams...also have Conner but cant trust that shoulder yet.

Sub or stick with my gut on those?  
id go sanders over carson

 
Weak RB's, strong WR's & TE's. Pls rank who to drop to pick up 2nd DST to pair w/SF or Balt. for 4 week playoff rounds.

Also, drop any to pick up Edmonds or Ajayi or specific high upside RB.

Lg 1:

D. Johnson, D. Samuels, L. Murray, Jam. Williams

Lg 2:

J. Howard, Jam. Williams, R. Jones II, D Waller
drop johnson and howard, hold rest over edmonds/ajayi

 
Sig,

thanks for always being patient and giving of your time on Twitter and here.

1.) Pick 2 for ppr: Darrel, Snell, AJ Brown.

the fan in me wants to watch Darrel and Brown but logic says Snell has to be the floor pick between to pair with prolly Darrel. Let the fan or logic win?  logic on snell is sound and i wont talk you out of it, how is your matchup looking after thr games?
 

2.) Might need in week 14: Auden Tate or Hurns in ppr?

 
I need a WR in non PPR, this week and possibly ROS if they shut down Julio. However, I need to win this week and score as many points as possible to make the playoffs (tiebreaker is points scored). The waiver options are Watkins, McLaurin, Westbrook and Alshon Jeffery. Thanks!

 
Standard scoring, one flex quandary this week, need 1 from the following:

Landry (going great but down to earth time?), Darryl Williams (usage unknown), Will Fuller (bad matchup)

Thanks!

 
He’s got the upside with Edelman, Riggs, Waller, Henry (Chargers TE), Bell, Lindsay, vs my Lockett, Godwin, Chubb, (already played Ridley, singletary, cook) and he had Thomas. I evened the odds after Thursday  night from projected for to get an ### kickin. So it’s hard to say if in both flex spots I play it safe with snell or roll with AJ. I think we in agreement Snell is lowest upside in ppr between him and Darrel and AJ? 

 
Standard scoring.

Benny Snell on a wet field vs the Browns, or Darrel Williams in the wind  vs the Raiders?

 
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Thanks for answering my questions; unfortunately, b/c league 1 is on CBS, it's too late to drop Monty and since League 2 is a keeper league, would you still drop Mattison for Darrell? Was initially considering dropping Tyrell, but Cook's health this season does make Mattison an interesting drop as well. 

thanks again

 
Sup SIg, 

In playoffs and looking to optimize my roster with high upside RBs. how would you rank these RBs in .5PPR  league for weeks 15 and 16:

Drake  cle/@SEA

Singletary @ Ptt/@NE

Penny @car/ Zona

Mattison @LAC/GB

Darrel Williams Den/@Chi

Edwards jets/@cle

Pollard Rams/@Phi

Armstead @Oak/@ATL

Thanks again!!

 
1.  Flex: Darrel Williams, Guice or Mclaurin--0.5 PPR

2.  WR--Kirk, Brandin Cooks, Westbrook, Sterling Sheperd--0.5 PPR

3.  Flex--Darrel Williams, Brandin Cooks, Mclaurin, James White, Jaylen Samuels--Full PPR

TIA

 
Fanduel (cash game need high upside): 

                  McCafrey and Wilkins or Leveon and Cook

                  Hill or Hopkins or Godwin (i have Mahones in currently)

                   Mahomes or Lamar Or fade both: weather issues in both games

12 team PPR(Playing the top scoring team, need a win for a bye): 

                  Pick 1 - Fuller, Hollywood brown(( i have Lamar), Shepard, Jamal williams

                  Drop one of WR above for bench stash(Darrell williams, Hill - late keeper option)

                  Stash a defense - I have New England D and will have a bye so need one for week 15 and 16 only

10 team no ppr, short bench(5 spots): 

                 Eagles D or Packers D

                 Lockett or Fuller

                 Drop one of those Defenses i was saving for playoffs(im garanteed a playoff spot) and pickup Mattison or pollard for bench stash.

10 team, .5 ppr, no keeper, 12-0 top scoring team by alot - Juju is my wr5(behind, Hill, Kupp, Hopkins, Gallup)

                 Should i drop juju for a rb bench stash like Darrel williams, Duke Johnson, Snell, Mattison? 

Hip hop - Masta Ace or MF Doom :shrug:

Thanks as always Sig

Hi Sig,

PPR. RB2: Lindsay or Darrel Williams? Flex: The RB not chosen, Watkins, Conley or Hollister?

Already behind the 8-ball with subpar games from Brees and M Thomas.

 
Hi Sig - standard scoring.  -2 pt penalty for INTs or lost fumbles.  Non-PPR.

T Brady or J Winston?

Z Pascal or M Sanu?

thx!

Lot of pundits calling NYJ D as a better play than Baltimore D.  I am not so sure.  Garappolo with happy feet and Colema nnot running well - plus being at home.

Your call?

Thanks!
throw mccoy into this mix for me and how you would rank them all, please @Sigmund Bloom

is fuller really a bad matchup?  won't gilmore be glued to hopkins, potentially opening up some stuff for others?

 
Flex....PPR, bonuses for long TDs and 100 rush/rec, 6 pts per TD.  TE skewed scoring (i.e., 7 pts per TD instead of 6 pts, bonus at 85 yards rec, etc.)

Andrews v SF

Gurley v AZ

McLaurin v CAR

Thanks...playoffs.

 
He’s got the upside with Edelman, Riggs, Waller, Henry (Chargers TE), Bell, Lindsay, vs my Lockett, Godwin, Chubb, (already played Ridley, singletary, cook) and he had Thomas.

I think we in agreement Snell is lowest upside in ppr between him and Darrel and AJ? 
yes but highest guaranteed volume

 
Looking for a flex in PPR league. Would you go with LeSean McCoy, Jalen Richard or Emmanuel Sanders. 

In another PPR league, also looking for a flex between Will Fuller, Deebo Samuel, Darrel Williams or Tyrell Williams.

Thanks!!
