.5 PPR, 6 pt td with 2 pt bonus for td over 40 - Need 1 Flex
Pierce @ Car
D Johnson vs Jax
Pierce @ Car
D Johnson vs Jax
I really like Palmer, he apparently had a hamstring injury last week too and had a fine, almost great (stupid illegal man down field penalty), game last week. But this week seems a little different. DNP on a Wednesday is no big deal but he was DNP on Thur and only did individual drills on Friday. That I don't like at all.Pu pu platter of ppr players. Here's how I have it:
RB- Gus Edwards @ Arizona
RB- Henderson @ Dallas
WR- CeeDee vs LA Rams
WR-Rashee Rice @ Denver
Flex- Palmer v CHI- he was a smash start but is a Sunday night "true" GTD with a knee (?!?!?!?)
Flex- Downs vs NO- 6-7 tgts seems likely
Bench:
1. Lockett v Cleveland- due for a game but Q with a hammy and a bad matchup. I'm guessing 6 targets min but might be 4/35 kinda game
2. Roschon or Foreman @ LAC- Nice to be able to move them into the lineup late. Split between the two of them in terms of who's going to have the better game.
3. Brian Robinson v Philly. Seems locked into a 50% snap ceiling and has lost quite a bit of the pie to Rodriguez and Gibson, especially in the last 2 weeks. Very troubling usage trend on a below average offense vs the worst scoring matchup for PPR running backs. Woof.
4. Jaylen Warren v Jax- meh. He's fine. 48% snap likely, Najee is getting some target share back. 7 rush/ 3 targets vs a middle of the road team.
5. Spears- v ATL- floor too low for now.
I would probably go with Howell BUT that Washington team seems to be teetering on a cliff and Howell is getting crushed every single game. This doesn't feel like a get well game for the Commanders. They only scored 7 points against the Giants for goodness sake.#2 SF QB
Howell or Bagent
All rankings have Howell but not feeling good about him against the improved Eagle pass D and Bagent goes against the worst pass D in the league.
Agreed.Need 3 PPR
Aiyuk vs Cin
Keenan Allen vs Chi
Theilen vs Hou
Meyers vs Det?
Presently have Allen and Theilen in . Kinda deciding between Aiyuk or Meyers at Flex?
I'm rolling the dice on Pierce. It looks like both Howard and Tunsil will be playing together and Carolina represents a very winnable game and a great matchup.PPR
Damien Pierce vs Car
or
Warren vs Jax?
I'm going with Jones and not regretting it if it doesn't pan out. He's a better player than Hunt and Pierce by a good margin IMO. He carries no injury designation and if the Packers have any hope of winning this winnable games, it will be because of Jones IMO. It seems pretty clear that he is the glue that makes the Packers offense work.1 PPR Flex, need 1
A. Jones- he has killed me this year, still not 100%
Pierce- is he still the starting RB, great matchup vs the Panthers weak run D
Hunt- Ford should be out and Hunt gets both receptions and goal line looks
Tough, tough call. In a full PPR I probably go with Diontae. He's also probably a safer floor play with decent upside (although I do worry he is allergic to the end zone)..5 PPR, 6 pt td with 2 pt bonus for td over 40 - Need 1 Flex
Pierce @ Car
D Johnson vs Jax
In PPR I'm going with Flowers. Opportunity meets matchup in a game where Baltimore could continue their scoring output from last week. FWIW I have Flowers in over Pittman, which isn't what I would call the "smart" move. But I'm planting my flag here (not a huge plant as Flowers has been quite good).Ppr pick one:
Aiyuk vs CIN
Flowers@ ARI
Diontae vs JAX
Aiyuk seems like chalk but man, if SF struggles again, Flowers seems like he could go for 85 and a TD this week. and DJ's so good.
I've heard that Jones isn't carrying an injury designation. It's difficult to feel 100% confidence with him and a hamstring but I think we have to act on the information we have.Hey @Chaka still debating that AJones/Javonte PPR decision I asked about the other day. Anything you’ve heard in the last 48 hours swaying you for or against Jones?
His coach literally said he’s not 100%. But I think I’m rolling with him anyway. Last place team needs to take some chancesI've heard that Jones isn't carrying an injury designation.

We're being told Jones is 100% so without hesitation I would go
Jones>Javonte
I have the same choice and I’m going Burrow. Ultimately he’s a better QB. But I think it is closeBurrow vs Purdy decision… any thoughts? Thanks
Burrow and I don't think twice about and have zero regrets if it doesn't pan out.Burrow vs Purdy decision… any thoughts? Thanks
I guess there is no point to injury designations.His coach literally said he’s not 100%. But I think I’m rolling with him anyway.

Jones>Javonte
D none of the above.Mattison(GB) vs Henderson(Dallas)
0.5 PPR
Exactly where I went, that seems to be the best combination of volume/upside/matchup.Oh, this is brutal.
Half PPR for RBs
Full PPR for WRs
Starting Ja'Marr Chase/DK Metcalf/Davante Adams/Christian Watson/Breece Hall need two more, one must be an RB but both may be RBs. Slight underdog today.
D'Onta Foreman vs. LAC
Emari Demercado vs. BAL
D. Henderson vs. DAL
Miles Sanders vs. HOU
Roschon Johnson vs. LAC
Rashid Shaheed vs. IND
Odell Beckham vs. AZ
I'm leaning Foreman and Shaheed. What say the people?
I just think the Steelers are a somewhat more reliable passing offense.Late addition:
.5 PPR
Need to bench one: Puka or Pacheco.
Need a scrub QB: Pickett or Ridder
I'll go Herbert because the Chargers won't run the ball 40 times if they're up big. The Lions may run every down in that situation.1.0 PPR
What's you guys thoughts on QB start? Who to play?
Herbert vs Chi. Sunday night
Goff vs LV Monday
I think your logic is sound and the dolphins won't have Xavien Howard today, but they do get Ramsey back.I have Geno Smith and Mac Jones as my QB options. Geno plays Cleveland's D while Mac plays Miami. It's a 16-team deep keeper where QB's get the usual points but also points for Comp%. I think the play is Mac against Miami because Cleveland does have a good D.
Thoughts?
I think I would roll the dice on Shaheed here he has the most upside, has been playing pretty well and I hate your other options..3 PPR, TD's, especially long TD's rule the scoring (yardage de-emphasized)...please pick 1
Brian Robinson vs PHI
Jahan Dotson vs PHI
Rashid Shaheed vs IND
I guess it has to be Ridley but I really want to say Rice.PPR, 6 POINT TD'S
Ridley
Or
Rice?
Pretty much the same risks with all of them don't you think? I don't trust Watson ATM. Rice does look like a TD machine and the Jags have a pass funnel defense.Ten team full ppr. Do I keep trotting out Ridley instead of Diontae, Rice, or Christian Watson?
Love it.I went out on my own this week Chaka
I went Pacheco-Hall-Gibbs(Flex) and benched Bijan
Playing Rice over Sutton and Amari Cooper catching passes from PJ Walker
I'd play Bijan in that format for sureLove it.I went out on my own this week Chaka

I am still debating Pittman over Bijan.
Sticking with Bijan but definitely have concerns.
Looks like I should have listened to you, Sam is dealing so farI would probably go with Howell BUT that Washington team seems to be teetering on a cliff and Howell is getting crushed every single game. This doesn't feel like a get well game for the Commanders. They only scored 7 points against the Giants for goodness sake.#2 SF QB
Howell or Bagent
All rankings have Howell but not feeling good about him against the improved Eagle pass D and Bagent goes against the worst pass D in the league.
Again, I still probably start him because they are a very pass heavy team facing a pass funnel defense but, I see nothing wrong with risking the rookie over him if that's what you're feeling.
Howell>Bagent
thanks for answering but that was not the right call Pollard turned out to be the worst of the 5 guys.
Pollard>Saquon
I apologize for only getting four of five correct. I will endeavor to do better in the future.thanks for answering but that was not the right call Pollard turned out to be the worst of the 5 guys.
Pollard>Saquon
I also made the wrong call I sat Swift in the end it didn't cost me the win I won 296-275 but it did cost me #1 score and 1 VP for the week. (top score gets $15 and VP's determine playoff spots and seeding)
Sorry, man wrong thread this is the week 8 thread..5 ppr
Mike Evans or Pacheco
