Week 11 2024 who should I start thread **OFFICIALLY UNOFFICIAL** (4 Viewers)

[Chaka]

Standard scoring non-ppr league. I need to start 1 of these 3 WR's to go along with Justin Jefferson:

Pickens vs BAL - Wilson is making him relevant
Downs vs NYJ - He probably avoids Sauce being in the slot
Tillman vs NO - Is proving everyone wrong week over week

Thoughts?

I ride the hot hand with Pickens in a plus matchup.

Maybe Tillman if you're really feeling it but I prefer the way the Steelers are playing.

 

[Skolpnw]

Terry McLaurin vs Philly on TNF
or
DK Metcalf vs SF coming off the bye/MCL?

I already have Jayden Daniels at QB, so leaning toward DK (full practice today) to hedge my bets.

Personally I prefer pairing QB/WR duos. Plus McLaurin has just been nails this year.

McLaurin>DK

 

[Ardbeg4ever]

HPPR - Need to SIT one WR
Tyreek Hill vs LV
Davante Adams vs IND
Mooney @ DEN (who is Pat S going to cover?)
JMeyers @ MIA (Minshew starting)

I'd go with DK as Philly has been the toughest vs WRs since week 5 bye.

 

[Chaka]

HPPR - Need to SIT one WR
Tyreek Hill vs LV
Davante Adams vs IND
Mooney @ DEN (who is Pat S going to cover?)
JMeyers @ MIA (Minshew starting)

I start Tyreek and Davante for sure.

If Surtain shadows one receiver it's going to be London

Personally I like Mooney over Meyers this week but it's close.

 

[Largent]

I'll start.

PPR

Need one WR:

CeeDee Lamb v HOU
DeAndre Hopkins @ BUF
Jayden Reed @ CHI

Is it time to bench CeeDee?

I would given those options

 

[Largent]

WR:
Only lock is Puka (Evans/Higgins/Cooper) fringe
Do I start Tyreek over Cooper? MIA vs LV - similar teams in a sense....might be used into the 4Q. OR Cooper vs KC....no Coleman, will be needed more.

Also in FLEX
Mattison/Warren....play Cooper and Hill.....

 

[Chaka]

Wow. Lots of people leaning towards benching CeeDee. A little surprised by that but, yeah last week was an efficiency nightmare.

So, it looks like you have the option to start both Tyreek and Amari?

That's the way I would go.

I like Jaylen Warren a lot but not so much this week.

 

[1320kid]

Wow. Lots of people leaning towards benching CeeDee. A little surprised by that but, yeah last week was an efficiency nightmare.

I’m so torn between him and London this week.

 

[themeistersinger]

I make every effort to answer every single post but I can't always make that happen.

What do you mean you can't answer every single post? get to crackin, Chaka

Typical Diva behavior. Guy answers a few thousand posts for free then starts loafing it while he's looking for the bag.

Yeah, I get it. I think I would go with London but CeeDee definitely has the better matchup.

Maybe Rush recaptures his mojo???

 

[LionOfGosforth]

Standard, already starting Achane, Monty and Collins (assuming he plays)

Need 1 from the following flex options:

Hall vs Colts - yeah I know, top 5 pick, soft-ish matchup but so hard to trust now with Rodgers flinging it all the time
DK @ Niners - Love Metcalf but tough divisional game and just back from a nasty knee situation
Tillman @ Saints - shouldn't even be in the same conversation as the other two but 3 solid weeks before the bye

Thanks!

 

[PrinceOfTides]

Lions defense against the jaguars or Vikings defense against the titans?

 

[urbanhack]

SuperFlex with emphasis on passing yards. I have to start one of these guys and am just thinking who has the most yards passing and limited INTs. (lol)

Levis vs. Minn
M. Jones @ Det.

Hall seems like the easy option IMO. He has been putting up very efficient numbers over the last five games, 5 y/c and 11.6 y/r on 18 touches/game. The lack of TDs is a bummer but he is looking like the top 5 pick you drafted.

The problem is is Nico doesn't play. Personally, since it's not PPR I probably go with DK but, that may just be because I still wonder if Tillman is legit.

 

[Chaka]

Lions defense against the jaguars or Vikings defense against the titans?

Yes

Probably Detroit because they're at home.

 

[Chaka]

SuperFlex with emphasis on passing yards. I have to start one of these guys and am just thinking who has the most yards passing and limited INTs. (lol)

Levis vs. Minn
M. Jones @ Det.

Both good passing yardage matchups.

Levis, because he's at home.

This one is tough for me, as I think all 3 have decent matchups. Hall should see the most opportunities so I'd go with him.

Lions defense against the jaguars or Vikings defense against the titans?

Lions defense always seems to get points no matter the matchup or who they play.

SuperFlex with emphasis on passing yards. I have to start one of these guys and am just thinking who has the most yards passing and limited INTs. (lol)

Levis vs. Minn
M. Jones @ Det.

I'd go Levi's as he has the most potential to get more yards as a gunslinger

 

[FairWarning]

Quick QB question, standard scoring, who do you prefer for this week and ROS?

Herbert vs Bengals - pretty soft matchup but Chargers winning without throwing too much generally
G.Smith @ Niners - huge game before the bye, gets DK back but this looks tough
Darnold @ Titans - yuck, just yuck. Had been playing ok but just made the terrible Jags secondary look like the 85 Bears
R.Wilson vs Ravens - starting to look the part, has Williams as well as Pickens

You have the order correct for this week and RoS also.

 

[FairWarning]

I'll start.

PPR

Need one WR:

CeeDee Lamb v HOU
DeAndre Hopkins @ BUF
Jayden Reed @ CHI

Is it time to bench CeeDee?

Since it’s Ppr, probably Hopkins. Can’t play Lamb because of the offense, GB may run a lot in the Bears.

 

[FairWarning]

Herbert or Daniels? Daniels vs. Philly scares me a bit...

Daniels has been too good IMO.

Has he been that good in the last month? I would hate to sit anyone against the Cinn D right now.

 

[FairWarning]

Daniels vs Philly or Nix vs Atlanta? 6 points per passing TD

Mix isn’t getting many TD’s, I would play Daniels.

You rank them Herbert->Smith->Darnold->Wilson for ROS?

 

[PrinceOfTides]

Who would you put at the flex position?

Drake London vs broncos
Ricky pearsall vs seahawks
Jaylen Warren vs ravens

 

[fightingillini]

I am in bye week hell this week and injuries are piling up. Need a flex. 1/2PPR for RB or full PPR for WRs

Ekeler at PHI (looks like Robinson is back)
Bateman at PIT

 

[Yenrub]

Flex spot TD heavy league - who is the best option of these 3?
Tank Dell vs Cowboys
Audric Estime vs Falcons
Raheem Mostert vs Raiders

 

[fightingillini]

Who would you put at the flex position?

Drake London vs broncos
Ricky pearsall vs seahawks
Jaylen Warren vs ravens

Is this PPR? This is tough. London is likely going to get Surtain and he just shuts down WRs. Pearsall has a lot of competition for targets.

I may go Warren here.

 

[efactor]

Daniels vs Philly or Nix vs Atlanta? 6 points per passing TD

Mix isn’t getting many TD’s, I would play Daniels.

Daniels started out faster, but in the last 6 games, Nix has outperformed him after he found his stride.

 

[Timmay]

Who would you put at the flex position?

Drake London vs broncos
Ricky pearsall vs seahawks
Jaylen Warren vs ravens

I would go London, he might be locked in with Surtain, but Mooney is growing as the #1 option in Atlanta so they might shift London around getting away from Surtain. I think it is Deebo and CMC week for 49ers after Jennings and Pearsal played well last week. I don't trust Warren at all especially against the Ravens.

I am in bye week hell this week and injuries are piling up. Need a flex. 1/2PPR for RB or full PPR for WRs

Ekeler at PHI (looks like Robinson is back)
Bateman at PIT

I'd go Ekeler even though Robinson is back. He should at least get you 4-6 catches. It is hard to predict who will get the ball in the Ravens offense after Lamar, Henry, Flowers and the last few weeks Andrews.

Flex spot TD heavy league - who is the best option of these 3?
Tank Dell vs Cowboys
Audric Estime vs Falcons
Raheem Mostert vs Raiders

Dell would be my start. I think he has a nice bounce back spot after a dud last week. Nico coming back will help open the field for Dell.

 

[Chaka]

Herbert or Daniels? Daniels vs. Philly scares me a bit...

Daniels has been too good IMO.

Has he been that good in the last month? I would hate to sit anyone against the Cinn D right now.

It's a really good point and it does seem like Herbert and the Chargers offense is on the rise a bit.

I have no problem starting Herbert over Daniels at this point.

 

[Chaka]

Who would you put at the flex position?

Drake London vs broncos
Ricky pearsall vs seahawks
Jaylen Warren vs ravens

I think I would just ride it out with London. I think the other two are just more sporadic parts of the offense.

It is reasonable to be concerned about Atlanta in Denver. Kirk Cousins has thrown eight TDs in two games vs Tampa Bay and nine TDs in eight games vs everyone else, with two multi-TD games and two games with zero TDs.

If you don't like London I would consider Pearsall at home. I like Warren a lot but I really don't like the matchup this week.

 

[Chaka]

I am in bye week hell this week and injuries are piling up. Need a flex. 1/2PPR for RB or full PPR for WRs

Ekeler at PHI (looks like Robinson is back)
Bateman at PIT

I mean... not awesome for sure. Total guess but I think I would ride the hot hand with Ekeler even with Robinson but, it's really a coin toss.

 

[Chaka]

Flex spot TD heavy league - who is the best option of these 3?
Tank Dell vs Cowboys
Audric Estime vs Falcons
Raheem Mostert vs Raiders

I don't love the way Mostert has been trending the last two weeks. He had his two lowest snap % of the season (23% then 14%). Could be no big deal and this could also be a "get right" game for him. But, I don't love it either.

Estime is trending in the opposite direction. He outsnapped and out touched Javonte & Jaleel last week. Payton apparently said he wants to get him more involved and I believe him. Problem is he is literally not used in the passing game and has only looked okay running the ball. It's also a neutral matchup at best.

Dell is a solid option IMO. Great matchup and if Nico is back at least he wont have Diggs covering him.

No one really jumps out as a must start here. I think I go with Mostert and hope it was an aberration and not a trend.

[need2know]

4/pass TD need 2

Purdy vs Seahawks
Carr at Browns
Cousins at Broncos
Stroud at Cowboys

If Nico is back then that points towards leaning Stroud but with the Dallas dumpster fire will they even need to pass?

stroud

I bench London and don't think twice about it.

pick one wr

hopkins @buff
waddle vs LV
jennings vs sea
J. WIlliams vs JAX

pick a rb
jabobs @Chicago
Dobbins vs CIN

Hopkins for me, his connection with Mahomes is only getting better IMO. It isn't an ideal matchup but, if any game is going to hit the over this week, it's this one.

If you're not feeling that then I like Jauann quite a bit. I do wonder what happens when McCaffrey gets truly rolling but Jauann seems like a legit player. The kind that probably makes the Niners regret giving Aiyuk a new contract.

And I'll take Jacobs over Dobbins. I like Dobbins matchup for sure but I just think Jacobs is a better player and will see a lot of action this week.

 

[Chaka]

Who do you prefer ROS,

B Robinson or J Cook?

Cook pretty strongly.

Sorry, didn’t see wilson on my phone. I would have Wilson just after Herbert for RoS.

 

[FairWarning]

JSN or Tee Higgins assuming both to be fully healthy by Sunday morning and reported as a full go.

JSN has been stated that the offense wants to get him more involved after his special showing, even with Metcalf back.

Tee has had games where he comes back from injury and is a decoy in the past.

My gut says JSN. Interesting a lot of rankings out there have Higgins ranked above him.

So I have arrived at the Sharkpool for the final say from my fellow gilled brethren than cannot stop moving or we die. (which is why my team has so many transactions every year churning through lottery tickets weekly)

JSN, I don’t like to use players on the 1st week back off a injury.

 

[FairWarning]

Full PPR:
I have J. Downs in my lineup
Colts just announced Richardson is starting this week and for the ROS
Should I replace Downs with The Bills K.Shakir this week?

Colts @ NYJ
Bills vs KC

Yes

 

[FairWarning]

4/pass TD need 2

Purdy vs Seahawks
Carr at Browns
Cousins at Broncos
Stroud at Cowboys

Purdy/Stroud. I don’t like playing dome qbs outside in the 2nd H of the season.

Tillman for me, close over Pickens.
