Lineup changes you've made after KC/OAK game. Playoff Edition (1 Viewer)

So those who are up big after yesterday or down big after yesterday what swaps have you made?  How does yesterday's game adjust what you are doing with the rest of the lineup if any?

If you are down big, do you swap a 5-50-0 type WR for a boom or bust guy, or just riding with what brought you there etc.

 
I was on the winning side, starting both Hill and Kelce vs. my opponent with L Murray.  Gonna stay with the same planned mix -- a few steady contributors and upside like Malcom Mitchell.  I have to decide between Stafford or Rodgers at QB, and some equivalent RB choices, but nothing I'm going to react on based on good Thurs scores.

 
I'm down 28-7   (Hill vs. Ware) With bonuses for length I may opt to put in Watkins and go boom/bust over Sanders.

Ideally you'd like to have some late game options to at least see how the day unfolds.

 
I felt I was a clear fave before Ware and Crabtree sharted the perfect sleeper on me.  :wall:

We get bonus points for distance on TDs so I'm now considering:

Hopkins over Rawls (.5ppr)

Big Ben over Winston

I think you have to go Hopkins, but will still lean Winston.

 
I benefited from Kelce having a pretty good showing.

Trying to determine if I should bench DT or Diggs in favor of Mitchell since Mitchell seems like a hot play these days and DT may have Lynch or a banged up Siemian throwing him the ball. Diggs has a tough matchup. With Kelce doing well I am becoming more daring

I could go Mitchell over Sanders/Cobb/Watkins myself, would be very gutsy.

 
Luckily I benched Crabtree but I had no reason to consider benching Cooper. It's still early, but I had that nervous feeling even before TNF. I think I'm rolling with the same linup. It's not panic mode yet.

 
Fell behind a bit but nothing major (was going up against latavius/kelce & cooper)-- started Ware.

Trying to debate Hopkins vs Mitchell & Ladarius Green vs Ertz-- Leaning Mitchell and Green--what do you guys think?

 
Up big for the moment, but this really just pulls me even after I was looking like a significant underdog this week. I took a swing for the fences with Hill and was rewarded, so the rest of my roster will be pretty standard.

Really the only decision I have left is Witten or Pitta, and my opponent will be completely done with all of his players after the afternoon games on Sunday.  Depending on how much I am losing by, I could have a very tough call to make at TE.

After my opponent fielded Hill and he singlehandedly outscored my combined arsenal of Carr, Ware and Kelce, I'm swinging for the fences with almost all of my picks.  Trotting Dion Lewis out there over Devontae Booker.  Rolling with Robby Anderson over Kenneth Dixon.  I'm still probably hosed in that league unless I get big days from Antonio Brown, Jamison Crowder and the Minny D/ST but that's fantasy for you.

 
I started Hill, not worried about floor/ceiling guys this week, as I'm a big underdog and need to hit on my choices regardless. 

I hope Jimmy Graham has a big day, is all. 

 
Redraft, pretty big underdog especially after Crabtree did bubkis.  But the only move I could make was to grab the Cincy defense and not worry about next week.  (Dont like the matchup against pitt but that's irrelevant right now)

Dynasty - benching mario Williams (he's doubtful) for Jamie Meder (also have to bench d Lawrence for health).  Was on the fence enunwa vs Barnidge vs ginn vs Parker but going ginn for upside.

Hope it hits. I see three targets with the potential for a ton of points.  

 
Carr starter here. 

Optionless really. My bold move will be keeping Gostkowski in over Prater. Weather be damned!

TJ is intriguing, but in ppr, I think my winning trio of Tyrell, Steve Smth & Cooks still give me better shot at a decent payout. 

Good luck to all my fellow Carr low-rollers

Thinking along the same lines. Ware and Crabtree have put me in a hole so I'm considering putting in Watkins now instead of Pryor.

It is the right call based on the numbers and opportunity. Gronk out, Amendola out, Bennett hobbled, and Mitchell is getting many targets on a great passing offense against a questionable pass defense. Starting Watkins would be gutsy, as he has finished WR 48 and 64 the last two weeks.

 
Just put Ertz in over Marvin Jones in PPR. AB is WR1 & Going with Lafell at WR2.

Trying to decide if I wanna play Booker in another PPR league.

I was a 10 point underdog  pre the crabtree 2 point game......  Ive got booker and the 2 denver wrs......  Im considering shaking it up and inserting allen robinson  (who admitedly has been awful this year)   and  dwayne allen at the flex (only because my qb is Luck).....  Im thinking  even if denver does well Im not sure I can depend on the 3 of them NOT cancelling each other out.....  thinking I need more high upside players at this point.   unsure.....
