Week 10 Questions for Bloom (1 Viewer)

[Sigmund Bloom]

ROS value? Ajayi, Vereen, Riddick, White. Can hold 2. Need to start one while Forte out.

Feeling like I should start Vereen and hold Ajayi for upside.

ajayi for sure

vereen to start this week

 

[pjoner]

PPR pick two

Bernard vs HOU
J Matthews vs MIA
Snead @ WAS
Bryant vs CLE

FYI, I already have Ingram and Cooks in my starting lineup.

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, thanks in advance.

After a disastrous Brandon Marshall for Dion Lewis trade, executed prior to kickoff, I'm left with the following roster in 12 team,

non-ppr standard league. (1QB, 2WR, 2RB, 1TE, 1Flex)

QB Roethlisberger, Tannehill

RB Lamar Miller, Sims, Tevin Coleman, Thomas Rawls (Dion Lewis, Arian R.I.P)

WR Julio, Dez, Jordan Matthews, Moncrief

TE Reed

At this point, I'm just adding fliers from waivers who may hit if lead back goes down. Who's the best option out there or should I just grab Bolden to go along with White? Best available are Abdullah, Buck, Mason, Grimes, Rod Smith, Ajay (I have Miller), Spiller; I have room to roster 1.

ajayi

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thanks as always Sig -- Non PPR

Pick one RB: L. Murray, J Hill, T. Rawls

Two WR: S. Diggs, D. Adams, K. Aiken, G. Tate

Need one Flex from Above: ??

hill

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thanks Sig!

1) Eifert or Reed at TE?

2) At flex - Eifert/Reed, LaFell, J Matthews, Chris J, CJ A?

3) Pick 2 best bench stashes, based on chances the guy in front gets hurt and this guy does well (I own Gurley):

Mason, Ajayi, Rawls, Stacy.

Eifert

CJ in nonppr, jordan in PPR

ajayi rawls

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

In a .5 PPR keeper league where I could keep any of these 3 TE's for the same cost (18th round pick), which would you prefer to run with for the rest of this season? If this wasn't a keeper league, would your suggestion be different?

Barnidge, Kelce and Reed

kelce reed barnidge either way

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

So, I've lost Charles and Foster this year, but had a strong draft + waiver pickups (Hurns, Moncrief, West, McFadden, LaFell) and was able to trade for Julio, Forsett and Sanders.

I think I have a very respectable cast of WRs. This is a 10 team PPR league with lineups consisting of 1QB, 3 WRs, 2 RBs, 1 TE, 1 Flex (WR/RB/TE), 1 D/ST, 1 K (sadly). I'm leading comfortably in points but only 4-5 at 7th place:

Blake Bortles

Derek Carr

Antonio Brown

Julio Jones

Emmanuel Sanders

Amari Cooper

Stevie Johnson

Kamar Aiken

Darren McFadden

Danny Woodhead (PPR star!)

Justin Forsett

Karlos Williams

Antonio Andrews

Eric Ebron

Brandon McManus

Bengals

I usually don't like keeping 2 QBs but dropped Palmer last week and he was claimed, so I plan to start Bortles/Carr RoS according to matchups.

Question: saw many specialists recommending trading Antonio Brown and Julio Jones due do difficult schedules. Brown still has Seattle and Denver, Julio faces Carolina twice and the Falcons offense is slowing down.

Should I try any trade to improve that roster? It's pretty solid but I keep losing (I hate head-to-head, now holding the record for the top 3 losing scores in this league). I think I can move Brown or Julio + a RB (probably Forsett) for Brandon Marshall + Cobb + Lynch (this owner is pretty unhappy with Cobb and Lynch). Would you do it?

Sorry about the "open" question, I know you have a lot of stuff going on and your time is precious. Feel free to ignore, of course.

sit tight

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Any thoughts about arizona TE's? Need a TE in a bad way and the barrel is basically scraped.Both Fells and gresham out there. Worth a look?

daniels? walford?

i suppose the ARI willingness to use TE this year is worth watching, but not sure who will be used more now

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom,

Must win this week to stay alive for the playoffs.

Std league and I need a RB2 to go along with Run DMC.

Ivory vs Buf.

Stewart at Tenn.

Langford at STL.

Decker vs Buf. ( I can flex him in instead of any of these RB's)

Leaning toward Ivory but not 100% sure since his last three weeks of rushing. But, he'll get the goal line carries and I like the Jets going up against Rex as I think they'll be fired up to shut him up!

Thanks!!!

sorry i missed ya, had ivory highest, stew next

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thursday Night Question.

Pick one in 1 pt PPR:

* S. Watkins @NYJ

* R. Mathews vs MIA

* A. Andrews vs CAR

sorry i missed this would have been watkins, hopefully you missed it too lol

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Standard scoring need 2 from the following group for flex:

Matt Jones v Saints

Nate Washington @ Bengals

James White @ Giants

Karlos Williams @ Jets

Thanks Sig!

would have said kw jones

jones nwash instead if you missed kw

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom,

I have Andrew Luck, just picked up Bortles, and also have Tyrod. Romo and Roethlisberger are available to pick up.

I'm 6-3 in 2nd place and wondering if I should hold onto Luck. Someone offered me Demaryius for Luck and Tyrod. At first, it seems like a no brainer, but I am thinking Luck has some pretty good matchups week 15 and 16. Should I do it, or do you think he is worth keeping for the playoff weeks?

His other receivers are Antonio, Alshon, and Hurns.

My receivers are Megatron, Edelman, John Brown, and Moncrief. Start 3.

If I go through with this, pick up Romo? Even if this doesn't go through, I am thinking about just dropping Tyrod for Romo. What do you think?

Thanks!

do it. get romo too

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey sig,

Thanks for all your help this season.

Couple questions in my standard league.

For two spots, who do you like among landry, hurns, and cooper? Although hurns and coop questionable.

Should I drop luck for romo or russel wilson or just roll with d carr who is my other qb and current starter on my roster and use luck's roster spot on someone else.

What do you think about hurns/ivory for olsen/CJ/karlos?

I am deep at Wr and want depth at rb and to upgrade at te

Thanks for all your help.

sit hurns

love wilsons week 14 matchup to cover carr vs DEN

solid deal if thats anderson

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

2qb league

20pass yds = 1

Sack = 0,5

Int = - 2

Other scoring std.

Need to pick 2

Tyrod

Peyton

Winston

had winston 3rd

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

redraft, std scoring start qb, 2rb, 3wr, te, D/ST, K

proj. week 15 starters

cam - freeman, forte - julio, a brown, obj - barnidge - KC D

bench: langford, coleman, ellignton, tannehill, j brown, m bennett

i have 1st round bye locked up so trying to set my team up for weeks 15, 16. KC D wk 15, 16 is @ Balt, CLEV. Should I drop Tannehill for another RB stash like Spiller, alf, or james white? Or maybe for a D with a better week 15 matchup? I like ellington as a RB stash for now but I may move on from him in a few weeks if he's still not involved. Thoughts?

if QB WW is deep, drop tannehil. too early to get a D, need to see QB inj

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Sig -- He don't chase them away, he answers them all. This week in TD-scoring:

--Eli or Carr

--Two from OBJ, Evans, Cooper, Diggs

--Two from Stewart, C.West, Langford (if Forte out)

--Sorry for the K question, but Crosby or Barth (all FG worth 3)

--Rawls over Ajayi, Da. Johnson, Crow, Ameer as higher upside bench stash?

Thanks again.

carr

obj evans

stew langford

barth

[kingcoin1]

Hi Bloom, love that you do this!

Need a ppr flex out of:

Snead

Hurns

Davante Adams

Thanks!

 

[rovert22]

Hey Bloom!

I need 2- Diggs, Hurns, Bryant or J. Brown

Need 1- Langford or M. Jones.

Thanks.

 

[JIslander]

One more Sig. I already played T. Taylor this week and have Tannehill as well. Would you consider dropping one for Mariota?

Other potential droppables include: Tate ( I have Julio, Diggs, and Adams...but still not comfortable with that depth), Rawls (I have DWill, L. Murray, Woodhead, Hill) its non ppr

 

[johhnyturbo]

Hi Sig,

In std. Either Sanders, Crabtree, or Diggs. Then JStew or Langford?

I'm PPR LMiler or C West?

Thanks!

 

[BIGT]

Hey Sig,

12 team PPR

Duke johnson or K. Aiken at Flex

J. White/D.Cobb/C. Michael ROS value at RB

thanks

 

[theotherbrother]

Hey Sig,

12 Team,PPR, Flex - Choose (1)

M. Jones vs HOU - MNF, Lots of mouths-to-feed in CIN Offense. Possibly dominating game and reducing need to pass.

N. Washington @ CIN - MNF, HOU still "in-it", but possibly playing from behind most of game necessitating lots of pass attempts and/or garbage time yardage. Shorts III returning, reducing targets?

A. Andrews vs CAR - CAR badazz D going to create problems I think. Cobb in mix now. Meager pass attack may help CAR concentrate on shutting down run.

Thanks

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Siggy Smalls!

Half point ppr pick two...

Randal Cobb v Det

Mike Evans v Cowboys

Amari Cooper v Minny

Also...

Carr or Cam in 4pt TD league?

evans and cobb but really a toss up bw cobb and cooper

cam

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Please rank these three as keeper stashes for next year in a standard/non-PPR league (all three have been dropped by owners in the hunt to win now):

- Kelvin Benjamin

- Josh Gordon

- Jordy Nelson

Thanks Sig!

assuming you can keep forever, benjamin nelson gordon

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

In case you check this before the Thursday night game...

Pick two out of

Jeremy Hill

Karlos Williams

Matt Jones

sorry i missed ya, jones was 3rd

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Sigmund. TRADE. 12 team Redraft. I'm 8-1, tied for 1st in my 6-team conference (playing for week 14 "bye") and locked into playoff berth.

Team in other conference wants to trade (give) me C Palmer QB for Roethlisberger QB. I may face this guy in playoffs (wks 14-16) in week 16 (championship, final game). I own Antonio Brown WR, DeA Williams RB (K Cousins QB2); he owns L. Fitzgerald WR, Martavis Bryant WR (P Rivers QB2).

Do I trade Roethlisberger and potentially wind up facing him in the Superbowl, throwing to my stars? Thanks!

yeah

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Are you aware that your microphone has been cutting out all season?

sometimes i hear a short lag, maybe once or twice a show at times

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Good evening Sigmund,

Appreciate you doing this . . . . performance / distance league and I actually have a few good match-ups this week.

Pick 2 RB's : AP, JHill, Blount Starks

Pick 3 WR's : RCobb, ARob, ACooper, LaFell

Thanks !!

AD starks

sit lafell

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thanks in advance Sigmund.

I lost Keenan Allen and Forte in the same week. I was not able to pickup Langford on the wire. Even though I'm in first place, I know I need to pull off a trade to improve my team and make up for losing my 2 best players. Any suggestions on improving my team: (12 team PPR league) standard scoring

Bortles
Brady

A.Andrews
B.Bolden
M.Forte
M.Lynch
T.Rawls
C. Simms

D.Adams
Mi. Floyd
DGM
D.Inman
E. Sanders
W.Snead

J.Witten
C.Gillmore

Gano - K
Cards - D

find the team with worst QB and deal bortles for some sort of upgrade thats about all i see

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom,

Different kind of question here. First, as of right now, what is your outlook on Jordy? Second, in a keeper league what kind of value would you place on him (high value player name/ low value player name)? Having a difficult time gauging his value. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

i actually think he'll be almost the guy we expected this year bc injury happened so early. i would treat him like a strong WR2 in keeper values, maybe around decker or landry?

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Non-PPR

Langford or Stewart?

Snead, Davante Adams, Michael Floyd, or Smokey Brown at WR?

stew

brown unless brown inactive, then floyd

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Trade question. Non-PPR league. I'm trying to trade away a WR for C.J. Anderson in the hopes that he returns to his end-of-season 2014 form.

My RBs: Lamar Miller, Jay Ajayi, Doug Martin, Charles Sims, Thomas Rawls, David Cobb

My WRs: Dez, Randall Cobb, Hurns, DeSean, John Brown, Marvin Jones

I have offered Marvin Jones for C.J. If his owner rejects that offer, is it worth offering John Brown? I've considered offering DeSean, but I think he could really put up big numbers against the Saints this week. I think it's obvious that Dez, Cobb and Hurns should be off the table.

Thanks.

i would do desean or brown

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

How would you rank these qbs the rest of the season (6pt passing tds)

Brian Hoyer

Derrick Carr

Tyron Taylor

Tony Romo

Thanks

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, I'm currently 6-3, have highest cumulative score and would qualify for first round bye in 12-team standard scoring league. We start 1qb, 2 rbs, 2wrs, 1te and 1rb/wr/te.

My roster is:

Carr/Rivers

Gurley/Miller/DWill/DuJohnson/Ajayi/Coleman

Alshon/ARob/MiFloyd

Reed/Barnidge

What are your thoughts on trading Miller or DWill for AJGreen and CJA? I am concerned about miller's workload and dwill's age. Is selling high on miller or dwill and buying low on AJGreen and CJA smart or better off rolling with what i have. And assuming you would sell high, who would you prefer parting with - Miller or DWill?

Also, hate carrying 2 qbs and 2 tes. Feel i have to carry reed/barnidge and play matchups given reed inj history and barnidge upcoming bye and potential we see more manziel. Would you agree?

And what would you do with rivers/carr? Really like carr, esp if i get opening round bye in week 14 and don't have to play him against broncos. i also prefer not to drop rivers and allow competitor to pickup although feel he tails off second half given inj to keenan, floyd and gates. not much on ww and would probably pick up a cmike/rsmith type or handcuff one of my current backs.

Thanks for all your help!

yes miller, dwill if you have to.

yes on TEs

keep rivers if WW that thin

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need a win this week. 3-6 so gotta win out.

I have to pick 3 WRs and my FLEX. Out of the following...

Antonio Brown

Randall Cobbs

Calvin Johnson

Brandin Cooks

Stefon Diggs

Tyler Eifert

I'm going up against Andy Dalton so not sure if it's best to throw Eifert into my FLEX spot (my TE is Gronk) or if better to pick Cooks/Diggs. Your help is appreciated greatly!

sit diggs and eifert

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Touchdown league.

Pick 1

Stafford @GB,

Palmer @SEA,

Cutler @STL

Pick 1

Doug Martin vs DAL

TJ Yeldon @BAL

Pick 2

Martavis Bryant vs CLE

Dez Bryant @TB

Mike Evans vs Dal

palmer

martin

dez evans

 

[shadyridr]

I'm really tempted to start bortles over Newton. Dumb?

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

Have a hobbled Peyton vs KC in a good matchup or I can pick up Cousins. I was planning on starting Peyton as he's looked better since the bye, but now this injury has me second guessing myself. I need a win to stay in the playoff hunt and would also have to drop Peyton to get Cousins. (I have no problem with that though).

Thanks!

peyton has some good matchups coming up, but i have cousins ahead by 2.3 this week. maybe depends on how close your matchup is, how much you trust cousins, and how fat the WW is with QBs

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Whats up Sig

12 Team Non PPR League Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, K, Def (option to go 1 RB and 3 WR instead)

We get to keep 2 Players for following year. 16 man Roster plus one spot reserved for an injured player (must be listed as OUT)

My Roster

Wilson, Taylor

Le'veon, DeAngelo, D Lewis, Gore, Ch West, Ellington, David Johnston, Woodhead

Demarius, Edelman, J Landry, Stevie

Kelce

Forbath, Jets

Rosters Frozen in week 13

Question - I'm already using my injured spot to hold Bell so I can keep him next year. Not sure if I should eat up a roster spot on Dion for the rest of the year to potentially keep him. What you think of Dion's prospects next year - good chance back to RB1 status? Worth the stash? Demarius instead? (Worried about Peyton retiring?) Im currently 8-1 and 5th in scoring

Thanks

Ron

dont use the spot on lewis

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Dynasty PPR.

I'm contending and a little worried about Big Ben. Would you trade Kelce or Graham for Phillip Rivers?

QB: Ben, J.Winston

RB: Gurley, L.Miller, M.Forte, A.Ellington

WR: Antonio Brown, Julio Jones, Mike Evans, Kamar Aiken

TE: Travis Kelce, Jimmy Graham

nah too many weapons lost/hobbled

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

8 team ppr league:

S Diggs or M Evans WR3? Could start both using one in flex over the RBs listed below?

Pick my Flex: McFadden, Blount, Forsett?

evans mcfadden

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thanks for doing this Sig.

Any changes you'd make to the starters below (PPR)?

WR (start 2): Dez, Diggs

RB (start 1): McFadden

RB/WR Flex (start 2): Forsett, Lamar Miller

Bench options: Cooks, Chark West

I'm struggling over whether or not I start Cooks over Diggs or Miller.

Thanks!

DR

cooks over miller

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

You da man Bloom. Trying to find that elusive Sleeping Monkey.

This week--12 tm PPR-- if Marshawn happens to sit do you start Rawls or Ryan Mathews?

And I love the ROS tiers, thank you. Most of these below are pretty close I know. Maybe give top 2 or 3?

ROS-- same league, best stash-- DJohnson, Rawls, Ajayi, Riddick, Joique, Ridley or Taiwan Jones?

Thanks so much and good luck this week.

rawls

ajayi

djohnson

rawls

joique in mix over rawls/dj if you need a flex play/RB3
