I haven’t read about those Cardinals injuries in the secondary until now. Not that Rattler scares me, but it’s still not great to read. Especially by me, who second guessed his rotating defense weekly every season on the finest of nitpicks and data points.
Drafted the WASH D late for the matchup with the NYGs but now getting a little gunshy. NYGs may not be as much of a bunch of bumbling fools with Wilson at the helm.
Toying swapping out with the LAR D. At home. HOU O line still kind of a mess. And I'm doubting the three headed Chubb/Pierce/Marks will be able to run the ball well.

I would not be surprised if the NYG/WAS game could be closer than the spread with the Giants having a shot at the upset. I like the Rams matchup as I think they will be able to create pressure (and Kirk now out as well). Full disclosure however, I never seem to be right about Ds.

Me either. That's why I wait until my last pick in the draft and just get from what's left the best week one matchup. Then keep flipping them most weeks on our free waiver wire. I'm still usually wrong, but at least I spent the minimum draft capital on being wrong.

Same about the commanders.
I’m very close to pivoting to the Bills, who someone dropped onto my WW, even though it’s going to be an extremely tough matchup against Baltimore. May do so because their next five games are cake and they have an easy schedule rest of season.
One week’s pain for a season long hold sounds like a good plan to me.

I have this same pair and may have to drop one for a K to fill out my lineup.
I think the concern with the 49ers is all the new starters on D, but healthy Bosa and Fred Warner is a fantastic foundation with a great DC in Saleh. I like seeing a team attack a problem in the draft with conviction, and the 49ers drafted defense with their first five picks, all in the top 113 of the draft. Believe they added two more projected starters in FA. Surely Saleh knows what he wants/needs and they gave him the resources to address it.
I don’t love week 1 against an unpredictable Seattle team. But I love the ceiling of the 49ers if those draft picks play to their pedigree and Saleh gets these guys back in a strong scheme.
Arizona has the defensive HC, has been building the D for a few years, gets a bad QB week 1 with a bad OL … and yet I can’t get it out of my head that it’s a trap. They’ve still got Kamara. Still have Shaheed. Still have Olave. Those guys can break games open.
