Week 12 Buy Low/ Sell High (Week 14-16) PLAYOFF targets (1 Viewer)

I feel like once Cook gets back, Thielen will have a few stinkers when Diggs get going.

Landry's targets will always be there but both or one and something else could be used to go after a top 8 guy.
Thielen is the best receiver on the team. Most complete and can run any route from any position. He's going to get his

 
Not officially but his after the game his injury was considered the worse of the 2.  He was in a boot with a crutch.  With Peters already called as 2 to 4 weeks I'm guessing that's the low end for Talib.
Still have a great pass rush, could be quick hits to Diggs just to get the ball out.

 
I still think you'd have to offer an elite WR to get Johnson. Davante Adams? Kennan Allen? Thoughts?
Perhaps Keenan as his value is taking a hit as well. The emergence of red zone target Mike Williams. I'm not sure D Johnson is a good buy low candidate? Arizona looks like a mess and they may not recover from the entire year? Larry Fitzgerald is someone no one wants either. Glad I traded him for Edelman after week 1 in one league. Still left with him in another.

 
got rid of the Amari Cooper headache.

Sent:  Landry and Cooper for K. Allen and Goff

Hate having 2 QB's with only 4 bench spots but it'll cover Rivers bye and then can pick 1.

Replacement level WR's are Shepard, Ridley, Boyd, Crowder on waivers.

I guess it depends on scoring - I've only ever played in larger 6pt TD leagues where QBs are pretty valuable even in a 1QB league, but I've never understood this blanket devaluing of them to the extent that they seem to be. In drafts, people routinely take players over QB who won't score as well and also won't have equivalent trade value in season. I know it's a question of value relative to the position, but it really helps your fantasy QB to have a high scoring QB. In my main league, 6 out of the top 10 overall scorers are QBs. 

As for Mahomes, I don't think I could pull the trigger on trading him for any player in dynasty right now, even in a 1QB league. You might say it's a no-brainer but he might redefine the position from a fantasy perspective and be a true cheat code/championship winner. 
6 pt leagues barely move the needle.  The low value comes from lack of relative scarcity.  My main league is a 6 point league with long TD bonuses and the first QB comes off the board in round four unless someone has a hard on for Rodgers and reaches in round 3.

 
Speaking of low - is Goodwin droppable?
I know the Niners are a less than desirable fantasy haven but he is still a #1 receiver. Backup QBs tend to force feed #1’s and the TE. He’s a hold unless there is an immediate need.

Thompson (PPR), Howard, Lynch. Although Lynch is kind of a buy high but I think he can continue his production and he’s not someone people have an iron grip to hold. 
I've been trying to move Lynch.....of course I'm alooking for a Diggs type return

I've been trying to move Lynch for a low end WR1 but people who have those guys tend to like WR's too much to give them up.  I tend to prefer to have a strength at RB and scrounge for WR.  Trading for good WR's is hard this year for some reason. 

 I think as the season goes on and RB's get more scarce that those of us with RB strength will be at an advantage.

 
It sounds like he was “potentially” shooting for this week so next week might be obtainable. 
That would be week 5 with a bye on week 7.  Might be a good chance we don;t see him until after the bye.  Plus didn't he say his knee wouldn't be right all year?

I am changing my mind

I don't know jdogg. DJ may be a sell low candidate. This team looks terrible. Truly terrible.

I mentioned it before but it Bears repeating (because my therapist said it helps). 1997 I drafted Emmitt Smith and Curtis Martin with my top two picks.

You know how we always say that you don't win leagues in the first two rounds but you can certainly lose them? Well look 1997 up on PFR. Needless to say I didn't win my league that year.

Sometimes an elite talent, or two, in ideal situation(s) just don't produce. I think that may be DJ this year (and I fear it's gonna be Zeke who I drafted #1 overall).

Ok, who's a RB2 that's a good buy low candidate now? 
Aaron Jones..quietly had himself a game ..6-42. 7.0 per carry..just a matter of time, really..but you WANT to get him NOW - Bills, Lions, Niners, Rams, Pats, Dolphins. can it get easier? Rams down a couple defenders. Niners not that great.Lions can't stop anyone not name Patriots, Bills - if you think they'll do to GB what they just did to Minny you're on crack. that cray-cray talk right there..watch Jones get on track this weekend, get himself 100+ rushing yards and a TD or two..the J. Williams show has officially ended.

 I think now is the time to BUY BUY BUY on Alf Morris..the volume is there..quietly put up 10+ fantasy pts last week, and did well the week before..he's pretty a must start at this point - oh , and Breida is ALREADY hurt..I know Alf has an ankle thingy right now, but it looks like he'll be fine, and Shanny plans to run the snot out of the ball with a backup QB he has no other options..that line is terrific, they'll block anyone..

I've been saying it for a few weeks now, but it's time to get Jamies Winston - Fitzs candle burns out long before his legend ever will...thank you elton john..

Flashy Fitzmagic has about 2 quarters of football left in the 2018 season - if he sux ,they'll replace him with Winston at halftime if not sooner..and with the way that offense has been shooting the ball all oer the place, Winston might be putting up stats like Drew Brees..

if you can trade for Golladay do it now, that offense is warming up , they're starting to get things going..he's here to stay.

Trade for Jimmy Graham - he's put up very good numbers so far this year.

L. Fournette if you can get him.

This is one of the best things I have read on here in a while. Entertaining at least.

 Bills - if you think they'll do to GB what they just did to Minny you're on crack. that cray-cray talk right there.

 Easily my favorite.  ^^      :D

Williams put up 6 yards per carry and 8 yards per reception.

I don't know if this analogy is apt or not, but think about this: the Bears featured Jordan Howard in their mediocre offense last year, and he did well. I don't think it's unreasonable to say that Howard is not in the same talent universe as David Johnson. And yet, AZ isn't smart enough to design an office around their best player - after they signed him to a long term deal. That is a tremendous display of coaching incompetence.

 
This is gonna sound nutty but is Kamara a sell high with Ingram coming back off suspension? 
I mean maybe ya, but who are you going after?  Would need to be Gurley or Gordon at this point or nobody unless it's in a package deal.

 
Consider putting Mixon the list.  The owner may be tired of waiting or may need a win now, but it shouldn’t be too long acwait for Joe to return.

I got my eye on him too! He looked even better than advertised. Have Gio starting until Mixon returns. The whole minor surgery thing could allow potential trade. When I did my research the players I have to trade are about equal with Mixon now - Hyde and Lynch. Not sure he would be that much of an upgrade?

Even more nuts, I'd probably trade Michael Thomas if someone wanted to pay for his production to date. Would need a nice package.
