2016 Week 2 Questions For Bloom (1 Viewer)

[Sigmund Bloom]

Desperate owner looking for WR help due to K. Allen injury.

I'm wondering what low to mid tier WRs below who are currently either on waivers or at the end of team benches offer the best opportunity for upside. Wondering if you could rank the following:

* John Brown -- Seems to be forgotten after a poor week 1. Still in a potent offense.

* T. Lockett -- Is sharing with Kearse but I've got to think this changes.

* W. Fuller -- Great start to his career, but does it continue?

* P. Dorsett -- #3 option here but Luck looks like he'll have to throw a ton. He's an injury away from more targets.

Thanks

brown

lockett

fuller

dorsett

altho fuller is the best play this week. i expect lockett to come on in the 2nd half of season

What would you say are the odds that Dion Lewis provides value anywhere close to his pre-injury draft status at some point this year.  My league allows for an extra bench spot (only for players that are OUT).  Have lewis on it.  Can put Brady on it and churn that spot for couple weeks if I drop Lewis.  Guys like Wallace on WW

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey now, Sig. 

Great ww podcast this week.

In a TD-only scoring league:

-- 2 WR from Hilton, Watkins, Fuller, Fitz, Tate

-- Would you drop one of those receivers, Devontae Booker, or Kenneth Dixon to handcuff Barner to Mathews? (My other backs are Da. Johnson and Charles)

Thanks!

fuller and fitz

no

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom,

Blount or Marvin Jones? Standard.

Thanks

blount

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need Help, 1 PPR have 2 Flex Spots to fill. 

Options are:

Arian, Yeldon, Sims, JMatt, Snead, John Brown, Lockett.

Please pick 2 of them for me! Thanks!

matt and snead

Sig,

Team #2, 12-team PPR, can only carry 4 RBs and 4 WRs.  Trying to weather the storm until Bell gets back and Wilson gets healthy, already 0-1.  

I need to pick up a more viable RB#2 this week with Rawls getting the starting role bck.  

Vareen, Powell, James White, Chris Thompson are available in the FA pool.  Which one do you recommend picking up and drop C-Mike I take it?  Have to swap RB for RB based on league roster maximum limitations...

Also, Fuller, Diggs, and Sanu are available in the FA pool, should I swap out one or both of Lockett and Thomas for Fuller and Diggs?

QB: Wilson, Stafford

RB: Le'Veon, Hyde, Draughn, C-Mike

WR: Nuke, Maclin, Lockett, Thomas

TE: Julius, Graham

Thanks Sig!

Demarius Thomas

T. Williams (sd)

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Does Doctson have the same kind of upside (or close enough) to ODB in his rookie year? If so then when should we be pouncing on him off the waiver wire? I remember those who were a couple of weeks early on ODB won a lot of leagues.

Riddick outlook in PPR rest of season? He was inconsistent last year. Feeling a bit uneasy that I made an aggressive move for him on waivers this week

not odb, but TD scoring upside should be there. id stash him in 20 man roster. maybe not 16 yet or otherwise short bench/fat WW leagues.

riddick looks like a terrific PPR fit and the addition of carries might make him a weekly RB2. willing to plug him in as one this week

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Have a tough set this week

T.West vs CLE

B.Powell vs BUF

J.Mckinnon vs GB

This is 1/2 pt PPR

And Lockett or Sanders this week at WR?

west sanders

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Sig,

     Mike Wallace vs CLE or Sterling Shepard vs NO?

     or sit Jordan Matthews vs CHI and start them both?

Thanks in advance!

Hey Sig,

In my 12man 0PPR league, Crabtree was dropped to the waivers. I have $92/$100 FAAB left. How much would you spend on him? I have Gore at flex and was thinking I could interchange Gore and Crabtree at flex.

Also, what are you doing with Spencer Ware? Keeping? Trading? If trading, what caliber player are you targeting?

Thanks,

Alex

keep ware unless you can get top 50-75 player value for him.

in nonppr crabby maybe 40-50 units

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Bloom,

This week, Garoppolo or Wilson? 

Also, I just proposed J. Maclin and D. Jackson for M. Ingram and it was verbally accepted. Below is my roster, would you do it? I'm leaning towards yes.

Current lineup:

RB: D. Williams
RB: S. Ware
WR: AJ Green
WR: D. Bryant
Flex: D. Jackson
TE: T. Kelce

Bench:

WR: J. Maclin
WR: M. Thomas
WR: B. Miller
RB: J. Forsett
RB D. Booker
RB: T. Cadet

wilson

in nonppr i like the ingram deal. in ppr prefer the WRs

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Good morning Sig.  Man I missed these weekly questionnaires.  I'm looking for WR depth behind Cooper, Hilton and Moncrief.  My bench WRs are:

Funchess

Kevin White

LaFell

Davante Adams

Steve Smith was dropped in my 12 team standard league.  Is he worth a #2 waiver claim?  And who should I drop from my bench?  Thank you.

smith over lafell. but not worth #2 claim

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Play Watkins tonight (Espn standard scoring no PPR) or start Tyrell Williams instead?

Thanks!

tyrell

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Now that there's already rumblings about Fosters Hammy is Ajayi a better hold than McKinnon?

0.5 PPR.

Need two of the following:

* M. Ingram @NYG -- Cadet usage concerning. NYG D-line no joke.

* R. Jennings vs NO -- Great matchup. Getting the touches. Could NYG slow it down a bit? Lousy weather could also be rolling in.

* L. Murray vs ATL -- Decent matchup, but not involved in the passing game and losing touches.

Thanks.

 

[xenon]

Hi and thank you..

Start 2 of the following in ppr.

Will Fuller,  Tyrell Williams, Randall Cobb, Chris Hogan

Thanks again...

 

[Team Smokin']

Bloom, I can't believe I am asking this question. For the season and a TD heavy league - TY Hilton or the ageless Larry Fitzgerald?

 

[jurrassic]

Thanks Bloom.  Tough decision Decker or Cobb.  Both have tough matchups this week

Superflex PPR, pick 2 (1 flex, 1OP)?

Cobb, Maclin, Tannehill, Wentz? 

Diff league, tiered PPR (0.25 for RB, 0.5 for WR)

Would I be crazy to sit Dez for any of Stewart, Crowell, or Coleman?

Thx Sig!

tannehill wentz

id still play dez, but stew if you want to go away from him

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need 1 RB and 1 flex from this group of 4:  (0.5 PPR)

Shady, Ware, Sammy, S. Shepard

Leaning Ware / Shepard and benching my Bills.

ware and shep

 

[kyoun1e]

Defense question. Pretty standard scoring with points for points and yardage allowed.

Need to pick one of the folliowing:

* LA Rams vs Seattle -- Looked atrocious, but for some reason play like world beaters at home against Seattle.

* Oak vs Atl -- Hard to trust these guys, cut they are at home and Atl isn't NO in a dome.

I could also pick up one of the following, but not sure it's worth burning a pickup and dropping one of the above Ds:

* Wash vs Dallas -- Could see a conservative Dallas game plan limiting opportunities.

* Philly @Chicago -- This feels like a trap. Lot of hype around Philly D, but I could also see CHI playing well at home and rattline Wentz.

Thanks

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hello 

Drop Kevin White or Corey Coleman in keeper league for Tyrell Williams? 

nah

 

[jah2707]

Thanks for your help last week. 

Some bad choices for QB.  Either Rivers who of course is missing his top guy but has a decent matchup or Osweiler KC D didn't look good the first half last week ?

Flacco is sitting on the waiver wire as well..

Right now I am picking RIvers playing

.5 ppr pick 1 for flex:

Rawls or Gordan or Watkins or Forsett?

I am leaning toward Rawls because a very juicey match up and they said he is the starter and should get more carries...

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thanks.  One more, would you roll with M. Bennett or grab J. James or V. Green or C. Walford?

lets see if gronk plays, lean green right now

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Bloom,

Which 1 to start in PPR this week? Sharpe, Sims, J. White, Kerley or Ty Williams?

TIA

ty

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Why should I start ingram over forte?

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom,

FFPC FBG team:

Starting: Winston/Zeke/Gordon/Cooper/Diggs/Tajae Sharpe/Tyrell Williams/Kelce/Walsh/Minn D.

bench: Watkins/J. Hill/Fuller/Forsett/Henry 

would you swap out anyone from the starting lineup? Trying to go optimal lineup matchups wise.

Thanks, and love the Podcasts! 

fuller over sharpe

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Sig,

14-team PPR league, with big milestone bonus points (10 pts for 120 yds rushing/150 yds receiving/150 return yards).  Listed my starters in Bold.  Not sure on Forsett over Gore and Lockett over Michael Thomas...what do you think?

QB: Brees,  Tanne

RB: Zeke, Jennings, Forsett, Gore, Morris

WR: Alshon, Landry, Lockett, Thomas

TE: Bennett, Virgil

Thanks as always!

id go thomas forsett on those two

 

[sho nuff]

3 RBs

Ware, Forte, Lacy, McCoy (Leaning Ware, Forte, Lacy...he has a nice track record vs. MN)

Standard scoring.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

very deep 16 team PPR league with big bonus for scores from more than 50 yds out:

WR- Quincy Enunwa or Terrelle Pryor?

TE- Charles Clay, Cameron Brate, or C.J. Uzomah?

enunwa clay if active, brate if clay inactive

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom

Which do I start in a ppr league, R,Mathews vs CHI or TJ Yeldon vs SDC?

yeldon assuming no ivory

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

What would you say are the odds that Dion Lewis provides value anywhere close to his pre-injury draft status at some point this year.  My league allows for an extra bench spot (only for players that are OUT).  Have lewis on it.  Can put Brady on it and churn that spot for couple weeks if I drop Lewis.  Guys like Wallace on WW

i would say if he's back, he's a solid PPR RB2/Flex, but not the RB1 he was last year. i would churn for now

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Sig,

Team #2, 12-team PPR, can only carry 4 RBs and 4 WRs.  Trying to weather the storm until Bell gets back and Wilson gets healthy, already 0-1.
