Morning Sig,

I've locked up a playoff spot in my ppr league. Would you consider dropping Spiller for Herron for the playoff run?

sure

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

1. Ivory, Gio, CJA, Ware (pick 2) Full PPR

2. Woodhead, Draughn, Rawls (pick 2) Half PPR

3. Any WW QBs look like they could be Great streaming options for the playoffs?

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, need help in my standard league.

(1) Need to choose 3 RBs from Freeman (vs. TB), CJ Anderson (vs. SD), Ingram (vs. Car), David Johnson (vs. St. Louis), and Thomas Rawls (vs. Min). Freeman and CJ have okay matchups, but not the rest. I'm thinking DJ, Rawls, and Freeman. What do you think?

(2) For WR, again have some tough choices. Have Dez (vs. Was), Hopkins (vs. BUF), Cooper (vs. KC), LAndry (vs. BAL), and Moncrief (vs. Pit). Need to choose three. I'm thinking Nuk, Landry, and Dez but Moncrief is temping after pittsburgh's pass d has been so bad for the past three weeks. Also, hard to sit cooper. What do you think?

(3) Finally, who do you like: Kelce vs. KC or Olsen vs. NO? Both have great matchups. I'm leaning Olsen but my concern is that Carolina will get up quick and then let D/run game sit on the lead whereas KC might have to go back and forth with Oakland if Oakland offense is playing well.

Thanks Sig!

1 is good

[Sigmund Bloom]

I'm in a league that lets you keep 3. So i need to make moves now for the playoffs and keeping next year

Who would you potentially keep (round able to keep in) obviously things will change in a year but your best guess would be helpful for future moves. Andy any good under the radar stashes for next year?

Martavis Bryant (13)

Jay Ajayi (14)

Charles Sims (14)

Mark Ingram (13)

Matt Jones (14)

Amari Cooper (4)

Brandon Marshall (4)

Andy Dalton (13)

[Sigmund Bloom]

Is Stefon Diggs a hold in standard leagues?

sure depends on what else is out there how strong your WR bench is

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

1 point PPR league this week:

Riddick vs Packers or

Latavius vs Chiefs

Also would you drop the Broncos D/ST for the Texans D/ST at this point? They haven't done much the past 5 weeks and injuries continue to add up.

Thanks.

Matthew Stafford or Eli Manning?

Thanks!

 

[ravens5]

Sig,

In your opinion, having secured the bye as the #2 seed and looking to Week 15, is the following trade good, ok, or a bad move?

Trade LeGarrette Blount for Golden Tate

Blount weeks 15-16: TEN, @NYJ

Tate weeks 15-16: @NO, SF

I didn't see Blount as anything above my RB4 but could foresee Tate as high as my WR2/3, particularly in week 16 when LaFell is away on Revis Island.

Additional notes: 0.5 PPR league, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, TE, Flex spots

RBs: McCoy, Ivory, Rawls, Allen, K. Williams

WRs: Hopkins, J. Brown, LaFell, Tate

TEs: Eifert, Chandler

Rest: Rivers, Carr, Luck, DEN D/ST, Santos

Thanks!

 

[ravens5]

Also, in the playoffs, do you think it's a good idea to play someone to offset your opponent? For example, playing Tate over similar WRs because your opponent has Stafford at QB and thinking you have the better team in general. Thanks!

 

[Ladsud]

D Johnson or D Murray, PPR.

Thanks.

 

[tandl71]

Hi Sigmund. In 0.5 PPR. Do I drop anyone to pick up Seth Roberts WR, or sit tight?

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hope you're doing well. Have a couple leagues I'd like your help on please.

Standard scoring league:

Start 2 WR, 2 RB & 1 Flex. Right now, I have A Rob & Julio in at WR. I have AJ green & Dem Thomas on my bench.

I have McFadden & Doug Martin in at RB w/West at flex if he plays, otherwise Ware. I can also put in Blount or Jordan Reed. Obviously, can also stick AJ or Thomas in flex too. Would you make any changes to how I have it set right now?

Other league is PPR:

Start 2 or 3 Rb & 3 or 4 WR. RBs worth mentioning are Hillman, Ivory, Forte, McFadden, Woodhead & Buck Allen.

WRs are Dem Thomas, Hopkins, Hurns, James Jones, Ginn, Diggs, Benjamin, Rashad Greene, Tyler Lockett & Seth Roberts.

What lineup would you go with here?

TIA!!

[Mr. Nasty]

Hi Sig...

Since I last asked you about Washington versus the GB D, someone grabbed Washington before I could add them. Would the Titans against Jax be a better bet than the Packers tonight in Detroit? Scraping for points here.

Thanks as always for all you do!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

Curious about your long term dynasty take on SF QB Kapernick?

What do you think it takes for him to be fantasy relevant again, say like getting traded to Philly or landing in a scheme or with a coach that suits his talents. Also what percentage would you give for that happening?

Thanks,

phi or flexible OC is exactly right. 50% he gets a good chance and 50% he gets back into long term starter with in. so 25%

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Nonppr

Pick 1: Brady or Cam

Pick 3: AP, Freeman, DWill, Blount

Pick 3: Alshon, Fitz, Maclin, Cooper

Am I nuts for considering Blount over Freeman? This just feels like a Blount game plan game.

Thanks Bloom

cam but wont talk you out of brady

sit blount

sit maclin

not nuts to play blount over freeman or dwill

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Sig, in a TD heavy league which 2 of these 4 WR's would you suggest for the rest of the season: Hopkins, Fitzgerald, Jeffery, or Decker? Thank you! Close calls?

[Sigmund Bloom]

I am king of the timeshares and seem to be on the wrong end of most of them.

Full Point PPR

Need recommendation of 1 RB and 1 Flex from

• West (practicing, but how much does Ware play?),
• Yeldon (gets volume, but poor matchup and no GL carries)
• Hill (good matchup but wrong end of timeshare)
• Hillman(good matchup but bad timeshare w/ CJA going off)
• Langford(good matchup but timeshare w/ Forte)
• John Brown (not great matchup, competition for targets)
• Snead (hurt?)
• could also pick up Devante Parker, probably dropping Snead to do it, but I've already got Landry

thanks

brown and drop snead for parker. yeldon over parker if you want floor over ceiling

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

2nd guessed myself last week and didn't proactively add S. Draughn....and missed out on him on waivers.

To top it off, I lost Gore's handcuff in Bradshaw in the process.

So, I really need some RB help for the rest of the year/ FF playoffs. In a .5PPR league, which of these RB's would you add in hopes for RB2 upside:

• Brandon Bolden
• Daniel Herron
• Darren Sproles
• Bilal Powell
• Jonathan Grimes
• Joique Bell
• Stepfan Taylor
• Chris Thompson

thanks in advance

Howdy Sig,

PPR, 1.5PPR TE

Need (2) of the following: (1) WR and (1) Flex

T. Austin - Like better with Foles, wary of Arizona D and Rams motivation

M. Jones - Eiffert iffy, but CLE not much of an opponent… sorry Matt

T. Lockett - Graham gone, Kearse got the Redzone vs PIT. MIN D?

N. Washington - Important matchup, but lukewarm feeling here

J. Tamme - Hank likely out, but Freeman and Hester likely return.

O. Daniels - Any port in the storm…

TIA

Thanks!

fine by me

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Also, in the playoffs, do you think it's a good idea to play someone to offset your opponent? For example, playing Tate over similar WRs because your opponent has Stafford at QB and thinking you have the better team in general. Thanks!

i wouldnt take that into account except to break ties
