PPR League.
A combination of Fitz / Gronk anxiety and a potential sell high moment for J. Howard/A. Collins has me thinking I should take an offer for Brees/J. Cook.
You'll see below I have a TON of RB depth:
* QB: Fitz, Trubisky
* RB: T. Gurley, J. Conner, N. Chubb, M. Mack, A. Jones (J. Howard, A. Collins).
* TE: Gronk
Brees would give me a "set and forget it" option at QB while J. Cook can fill the gap in case Gronk is out (and his bye is next week).
I do feel like I'm overpaying here a bit, but to be honest, I don't see any scenario where I play J. Howard or A. Collins. To me, it's basically Fitz for Brees and J. Cook.
That said, I'm eyeing a championship and a couple things give me pause:
1. Does NO/Brees go into pound the rock mode down the stretch? NO doesn't play LAR every week. Upcoming matchups: PHI, ATL, @DAL, @TB, @CAR, PIT -- Could be some high over/unders here, but also several outdoor games away from the dome.
2. Could I do just as well streaming (as I have) with Fitz, Trubisky, or other?
3. Is J. Cook any better at TE than other waiver options (CJ Ozomah, C. Herndon, R. Seals Jones).
Tempted to do this. The allure of Brees is strong. Part of me wants to do it, part of me wants to see if I can get a QB and/or TE for less.
Thoughts?
Thanks
