Waiver Wire & FAAB Discussion - Week 14 (1 Viewer)

T
I could pick up a second DST with Denver on bye, but I think instead I will use my relatively high waiver priority on Guerendo even though I almost certainly won't start him ahead of Bijan, Kamara and B-Rob in a 2 RB/no flex league. Need to block my opponents from getting him
can you get both? The Titans look very appealing this week if you have the space.

I'm dropping Taysom. If I don't get Guerendo, I'll use that spot on a second D. But otherwise, I have to drop Denver. I'd prefer not to, but I don't think it's the end of the world.

Can't decide what I think of Tenn this week. Obviously, the matchup is great, but are they any good?

Someone dropped the Eagles last week so I am putting in a bid to get them vs. Carolina. If that falls through, would you say:
  • Tenn vs. Jax
  • Saints vs. Giants

Don't know how good they are, but we know how good Mac Jones is.

Tenn because they are at home, also Dome teams outside in the cold are a hard pass for me - even against the Giants. I think the giants win this week.
 
For the bye week,

Levis vs Jax in a seriously juicy matchup at home or Caleb vs SF in what looks like a neutral matchup in CA. I have two claims in but obviously don’t want both.

Tough. Levis still has to show it without bonehead plays. Bears haven't won in SF since 85.

Just got this email:

We hope you enjoy your gift: 6 months of DIRECTV Sports Pack, which includes NFL RedZone from NFL Network (Ch. 211) and NFL Network (Ch. 212)!

This is our way of saying thanks to our sports fans. There's nothing you need to do—DIRECTV Sports Pack has been automatically added to your account at no extra cost and will be removed from your account at the end of the NFL season.

DIRECTV. KEEPING YOU IN THE GAME.

Interesting...
Juicy for which side? Levis or Jac defense??
 
If you miss out on the Isaac Guerendo sweepstakes, consider picking up Izzy Abanikanda for free. It's been profitable stashing RBs in the 49ers offense and Izzy might be next in line if Guerendo gets hurt.

Wasnt he with Jets? Name sounds familiar
 
I hope MFL puts some of these guys on their IR before waiver wire Wednesday. Specifically CMC, Mason and Hill.
Sleeper briefly had him on IR (before the week was finished so I couldn’t put him there) and then helpfully sent me no less than 3 separate push notifs over 24 hours that no actually they moved him back to Out
 
LVR RB Sincere McCormick has been returned to the Practice Squad
But if both White & Mattison don't return to practice, he could surface again ...
Vs KC #1 Run Def --> 12 carries 64 yards (healthy 5.3 ypc) and 2 targets / 2 rec for 1 yard
Sincere has resurfaced per rotowire. For those sincerely desperate enough, he has carried for 97 yards on 17 carries total the last 2 weeks.
My concern if I start him with the playoffs on the line:

 
If you miss out on the Isaac Guerendo sweepstakes, consider picking up Izzy Abanikanda for free. It's been profitable stashing RBs in the 49ers offense and Izzy might be next in line if Guerendo gets hurt.
Wouldn't it be Patrick Taylor?

It’s certainly possible. Taylor was waived during their bye week and brought back to the practice squad, not needed with CMC, Mason, and Guerendo all active. Two RBs went down at once and now there are two openings. Izzy currently is the only backup on the active roster and Taylor is still on the PS, but that could change. Taylor has tenure to his advantage, but we don’t know if Shanahan likes Izzy more or not.

Izzy struggled with pass protection and the Jets went out of their way to draft 2 RB’s because they weren’t sold on Izzy as a depth option. The more I think about it, the more I can see Izzy starting out behind Taylor on the depth chart this week. Guerendo, Taylor, Izzy in that order. I do like Izzy’s profile as a runner. But if he can’t block for Purdy he won’t play much even if Guerendo is hurt. I could be overthinking it.

Everyone blowing their FAAB this week. Now or never I guess.

Guerrendo went for 50%
Cooks 10%
Bunch of other guys went for 5-10%. Everyone seemed to overpay this week to get what they wanted.

50% for Guerrendo isn't an overpay, seems quite low to me.
 
McCormick, Sincere LVR RB
He sure did look good. It's just another head scratching decision by this staff that with a league worst running game and so many injuries that it took this long for him to get off our PS and into a game.

The only problem with McCormick is we will likely be behind a LOT which will take a lot of rushes away from him.
If you could only start one Raider RB in PPR this week, would it be Sincere McCormick over Ameer Abdullah? I know Mattison could come back, but let's pretend he won't.

I don't know if I would be starting any Raider other than Bowers and Meyers honestly. But I will say Sincere gave us the best RB play this year in super limited time.

Well I ended up with Tennessee after missing out on the Philly D. I hope you are right sir!
 
Imagine a ten team ppr short bench league. Devonta smith is droppable for Thielen right? The eagles don’t throw enough to make him relevant. Thielen would be riding the bench anyway but with his schedule after this week and him being the number one there (probably) make it the better move right? Or even for another lottery ticket.

Very short benches with playoffs approaching...

Is the vibe out there that Levis (if healthy) starts the rest of the season? Our waivers close for the season tonight, so I was going to grab some QB insurance. But it would be kinda awful to see Mason Rudolph tossing the rock if I was in a position where I needed my insurance QB.

Bryce Young is also out there, but TEN has some sweet matchups coming up.

Thoughts on Levis?

Great schedule, maybe the best QB schedule for the playoffs

He still makes a lot of turnover worthy plays but I think the consensus around Nashville is he's done enough to commit to him for 2025

It's starting to slow down for him, but I imagine he's always gonna have that Jameis inside of him that will make you say WTF once or twice a game

Tremendous upside RoS though if you can accept that part

IMO

Yes, this week may be a little tough though.

The answer in Tenn is either Levis or a drafted qb. I cant imagine rudolph plays this year barring an injury. Tenn is going to want to see as much of Levis as possible.

I took a shot and claimed him. If I'm ever in a position I HAVE to start him, I think I'll be very glad I have him.

That was everything he had left. He had the most left.
well then he overpayed. Never use all your faab when you have the most faab. Just spend a dollar more than the next guy.

I mean theoretically there was a 2-10 guy that had more but he's out of it and would be bad form for him to make the claim. So I guess he just wanted to be sure.

Yeah, the Jets waived him yesterday and the 49ers claimed him today
He was a weird pick for the Jets. Never really got a shot. I think he can play. He should be a great fit in the Shanny system.
