Mack, Conner, Collins, Cohen

Kennan Allen, Mike Evans, Kenny Golloday

[fredrikherberg]

Struggling on a decission for my TE and last flex spot. My opponent have already had ARod and A Jones played, so can't afford losing too many points. It's a PPR, 0.25 PPC, TE PREM League.

Flex:
Larry Fitzgerald or Tarik Cohen

TE:
Evan Engram or Jared Cook

My other starters:
RB: McCaffery, Dalvin Cook, Phillip Lindsay
WR: Mike Evans, Amari Cooper

Thanks!

 

[BamaAir]

PPR

QB Start 1 - Ryan vs dal or Brees vs phi

RB Start 1- Kerryon vs car, Mixon (inj) at bal, Collins vs cin, 4nett vs pit

WR Start 2 - A.Cooper at atl, Diggs at chi, C.Davis at ind, ARob vs min

Flex Start 1- from RB or WR above not starting 

TE Start 1 - Hooper vs dal or Heuerman at LAC

D Start 1 - Car D at det, KC D at LAR, Pitt D at jax, Hou D at was or Was D vs hou

 

[buzzben]

1st place (8-2) roster non-PPR.

Thinking of packaging RB+WR for top 12 WR (Keenan Allen, Cooks, Evans seem available). Thinking Ingram + one of Alshon/Gordon (maybe Diggs for a top 8 might do it. Would you try or stand pat?

QB: Goff, Wentz
RB: Zeke, Connor, Michel, Ingram, Collins, Adams
WR: M Thomas, Diggs, Alshon, Gordon
TE: Kelce
DST: NE, BAL

Also, what DST do you like most for week 15: BAL (vs TB), CIN (@OAK), SEA (@SF),  DET(@BUF), or BUF(@DET)? (I’m holding NE for week 16 vs. Buffalo).

Thanks!

 

[Eghoon]

With Monken, safer to start Fitz over Trubisky?

Drop Gio in PPR for Lamar?

Please rank ROS in PPR - Coutee, Miller, Brown and Sutton

 

[Mofongo]

QB: Matt Ryan, Lamar Jackson

RB: Connor, Fournette, Aaron Jones, Dion Lewis, Jordan Howard

Start 1QB/2 RB/ 1 FLX league.

Would you deal Dion Lewis or Jordan Howard to get Cam Newton? Already have Ryan, but should I go for it?

 

[ZackBussiere]

10 Team Standard League - Start QB - 2RB - 2WR - 2 Flex

I am currently 2nd in points scored and 4-6 in record, getting to 6-7 likely secures me a playoff spot with tiebreakers.

If I miss the playoffs, weeks 15-16 are still worth a premium because we play to avoid our last place punishment. 

I am playing the best team in the league this week, but had a decent start with Adams and Carson last night. 

Trade offered to me was James Conner and Wentz or Watkins for Zeke. Would you take that with consideration on making the playoffs and, if not, weeks 15-16. 

My Team: 

QB: A. Luck , Fitzmagic

RB: Zeke, CMC, Chubb, C. Carson, M.Davis, J. Adams

WR: D. Adams, K. Golladay, C. Sutton, C. Godwin

TE: Trey Burton, E. Engram

Thanks!!

[flexyplay]

Thanks for doing this Sig and good luck!

1. If you could, please rank PPR ROS-

McGuire

Hines

Henry

Latavius

RFreeman

Riddick

2. PPR- With Marvin and Roberts out, would you start Riddick over Larry Fitz?

3. PPR higher upside- Sutton or Reynolds?

4. DST- IND VS TEN or DEN @ LAC?

 

[Trohitreddy]

Sig ppr

josh adams a better stash or spencer ware from a high upside perspective. Also ben rothlisberger or fitz this week? Lamar jackson still a pickup for this year with both those two on the roster by dropping josh adams?

 

[Mofongo]

Need a TE this week in non-ppr... McDonald, Hooper, Doyle, or Jonnu Smith? 

 

[steelwind]

12 team standard league

WDIS at flex?

J. Brown vs Cinn

D. Martin @ Ariz

Funchess @ Det

I currently have D. Martin in there due to volume and matchup.  But I'm confused by your projection of J. Brown who you have over both these players.  I get that Bengals secondary stinks.  Flacco is almost guaranteed to be out.  Are we really trusting RG3 or L. Jackson to get him the deep ball?  We have no idea if Brown has chemistry with any of these QBs other than Flacco.

 

[starks]

If you could befriend a cartoon character, who would it be?

 

[FGITLOTR]

Hey Sig.

In a standard league, do I:

1) roll with Sanders or Corey Davis this week?

2) Go with Cam over Brees?  

In a PPR league, I need one of these 3: Anthony Miller, John Brown, Quanfetti?

As always, thx

 

[Rubi]

Thanks Sig,

                   FPC scoring:

                                           Need 2 of the following:

                                                                                         D.Thomas @ Wash

                                                                                         J.Doctson vs Hou

                                                                                         G.Tate @ N.O.

                                                                                         A.Humphries @ NYG

                                          And 1 of the following:

                                                                                        L.Miller @ Wash

                                                                                       S.Shepard vs TB

                                                                                       R.Seals Jones vs Oak

 

[Jsmiff]

Courtland Sutton and John Browns volitality has me concerened as my 2 flexes. Not sure if Hayward has been as shutdown as made out to be or if he’s seen some poor passing offenses. Obviously Smoke has not been helpful lately and now has a running qb with accuracy issues. I need the ceiling of Smoke and Sutton to seal the win but both reveal similarly low floors. Should I sub one for riddick in full PPR? Riddick could conceivably see more targets than either WR.

Also do I need to be handcuffing fitz with Jameis? or u confident a change won’t happen based on business concerns. I’ll be up a creek if I don’t have jameis rostered cuz guys will faab block me. 

Thanks sig. 

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Bloom, thanks as ever for your insights.

0.6 PPR, looking to sort out my WR and flex starters.

For WR, have Kenny Golladay, Alshon Jeffrey, and Amari Cooper to choose through, with them and Tarik Cohen and Philip Lindsay to consider for the flex.

Cooper and Jeffrey look to be in shootout games, but Jeffrey drawing Lattimore's attention is concerning, and while Cooper has seen solid volume since joining the team, DAL is still a run-first team.

Golladay potentially without (or with a gimpy) Jones is concerning -- while the CAR CBs aren't scary, their safeties are pretty solid, and concerned about Golladay disappearing again.

Lindsay and Cohen will see their regular volume, but Lindsay's share is likely to be affected by Royce Freeman's return, and have no idea whether the game script CHI has against a tough MIN run D, and whether that favors Cohen or not.

RIght now leaning towards either starting all 3 WRs, or Jeffrey and either Golladay or Cooper and Lindsay. 

Would love other opinions as I'm in a must-win situation and every point counts.

 

[kyoun1e]

QB Question. 6 points per TD pass.

* E. Manning vs TB -- Great matchup obviously. Weather looks good.

or

* M. Stafford @CAR -- Stafford may be down M. Jones.

Who?

Thanks

 

[iamkoza]

thanks for your help as always

0.5ppr

q1: I need to bench one of the following: AP v hou, Mack v. tenn, Golladay v. car, evans @ nyg, cooper @ atl

q2: need a QB.... dak @ atl, watson @ wash, or fitz @ nyg (can you really start fitz? he's a bad INT away from an in game benching)

 

[Foureyes]

Hi Sig. Gotta start two of these three in 1/2 PPR league.

Dalvin Cook, Hilton, Golladay

Appreciate the help!

 

[kyoun1e]

I'm trying to find a way to get L. Jackson on my roster. I've been streaming QBs all season and having Jackson in hand with that great schedule could be a league winner. As of Friday, Jackson practiced while Flacco did not. 

Here's my roster:

* QB: R. Wilson, M. Trubisky

* RB: T. Gurley, J. Conner, A. Jones, N. Chubb, M. Mack, A. Collins

* WR: A. Jeffery, J. Gordon, MVS, J. Brown

I've bolded drop candidates (and I can't drop MVS and WIlson since I started them last night). 

You'll note that I have considerable RB depth. That said, I do love A. Collins schedule. I'm lighter at WR, but I can start 3 RBs so only need 2 any given week and with my RB depth I fully expect to start 3.

Would you drop any of these guys for L. Jackson?

Thanks

 

[The General]

Mark Ingram or TY Hilton .5 PPR

Big Ben or Wentz

You da man!

 

[JIslander]

Thanks bloom.

Standard scoring, need  2 from these for RB2 and a flex.

P. Lindsay, T. Cohen, A. Collins,  M. Mack

 

[Keith1]

Always appreciate the words of wisdom. Am buried with byes this week in my 0.5 point PPR league. Need a flex. Realistic choices are:

Nelson Agholor--great match-up against the Saints who bleed fantasy points to WRs, but with Tate getting more involved, he may only be 4th option for Philly

Josh Doctson-- last man standing for the Skins, although they have serious O-line issues and the Texans secondary has performed pretty well against WRs

Keke Coutee--I spent a large portion of my FAAB budget to pick him up 5 weeks ago, only to have him get hurt and then the Texans traded for D. Thomas. He is seriously questionable, and if I ride with him and he sits, I will be screwed and have to take a zero for my flex.

 

[djjosee]

Bortles or Stafford (3pt TDs / o ints)

Standard:

Crabtree / Howard / ARob  - rank

Cook or Doyle

Thanks

 

[Goatstain]

Mr. Bloom,

Week 11:  T. Coleman or A. Collins?

ROS, D. Watson or Trubisky?

Would it be crazy to start L. Jackson (if starting) over Watson, this week?

Also, please rank below Rb's and Wr's (position specfic), ROS  - Standard:

A. Jones

Coleman

Collins

Hilton

Gordon

Cooper

C. Davis

Thanks so much

 

[Twenty-Four Eighty-Four]

ROS: Christian Kirk, Chris Godwin, Tre'Quan Smith or Danny Amendola? .5 PPR.

 

[PayneD]

Rothlisberger or Trubisky   5 pt td's

Mixon or Lindsay .5 ppr

Thanks

 

[Krilons Resa]

PPR Flex help, WSIS?

Jack Doyle v. JAX

Jordan Howard v. MIN

John Brown v. CIN

Keke Coutee @ WASH (coming off injury, he's prob not an option but figured I'd post him too)

Thanks in advance!

 

[jomar]

E Sanders

Boyd

Amari

Fitz

[jtp1982]

You’re the man Bloom!  Great draft advice this year, been a big part of my success so THANKS!!!

Assuming I can adjust for great/terrible matchups, who do think will be my best WR2 ROS 1/2 pt PPR?

Golladay, Sutton or Lockett

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

HI Sig,

Need a win bad. Already mediocre start from Wilson but at least I sat Graham and dodged that bullet. 

Anyway, standard scoring with a 5 point bonus for 100 yards.

one of these has to SIT:

Dalvin Cook

Mixon

Golloday

Juju

Mike Evans

Also, TE: Howard or McDonald?

THANKS and have a happy Thanksgiving!

 

[Captain Crunk]

Hey Sig -

.5 PPR - Mack or Dion Lewis?  Ben or Luck?  Bears or Steelers?  I have a close game by projections and looking for the safest floor but potential for upside so I was leaning Steelers.

Thanks!

 

[kyoun1e]

Wondering if you could rank the following QB streamers for the rest of the year. Been streaming all year and I'm trying to set myself up for the playoffs. 

4 pts per TD pass. Bold are playoff matchups.

1. M. Trubisky -- @DET, @NYG, LAR, GB, @SF

2. R. Wilson -- @CAR, SF, MN, @SF, KC

3. L. Jackson -- OAK, @ATL, @KC, TB, @LAC (Probably the best overall schedule, but not sure you can trust the talent over other options).

4. M. Mariota -- @HOU, NYJ, JAX, @NYG, WASH

5. C. Keenum -- PIT, @CIN, @SF, CLE, @OAK  (This looks real soft, but similar to L. Jackson not sure Keenum can be trusted).

Would you switch the above order in any way or do I have it right?

Thanks.

 

[Jersey Jammer]

PPR - Higher UPSIDE between P Barber or J Howard? Already trailing badly....

 

[Ominous Johnson]

10 Team Standard League - Start QB - 2RB - 2WR - 2 Flex

I am currently 2nd in points scored and 4-6 in record, getting to 6-7 likely secures me a playoff spot with tiebreakers.

I am playing the best team in the league this week, but had a decent start with Adams and Carson last night.

WR: D. Adams, K. Golladay, C. Sutton, C. Godwin

TE: Trey Burton, E. Engram
