Week 14 2024 who should I start thread **OFFICIALLY UNOFFICIAL** (1 Viewer)

Half PPR, 5 point bonus for 100 receiving

Pick 2 please

Lamb versus Cincinnati
Ridley versus Jax
Juedy versus Pittsburgh

All the rankings have Lamb ahead but I’m leaning on sitting him with that bum shoulder and crap team although I get the bengal d is bad.

I’ll likely need upside since my opponent had Goff who outperformed Love by 12 plus points last night…

TIA!

Lamb and Ridley
 
Mike Evans DNP yesterday and today. I can chalk one off to veteran rest day but not both.
CeeDee is set for limited practice today.

Currently they are my starting WRs.

Should I start Jayden Reed tonight in a big game at Detroit with Doubs out?

Or wait until Sunday?

My options for Sunday are:
Hopkins v LAC
Nabers v NOS

I have no options for Monday if CeeDee is a late scratch. There is also the possibility he starts and leaves the game early.
Whelp, that's what I get for not listening to the group.

I think it depends on Lamb's practice participation. If you don't have any backup to him if he's a late scratch I can see pivoting but it's very difficult to get excited about Wil Levis to Calvin Ridley.

So, if CeeDee is a go today and tomorrow in practice/walkthroughs I would probably stick with him. And Jeudy for sure over Ridley. Pittsburgh is a tough defense but Winston is the biggest downfield passer in the league. You have to risk it IMO.
 
Stick with Winston against a fairly tough PIT D or plug Cousins in (revenge game?)? Not sure I like the matchup for either.

I made the mistake of getting cute last week with my QB and benched Winston in favor of Maye. Would have won if I just stuck with good ol' Jameis.
 
PPR League.

With B. Hall being doubtful I need to pivot.

* B. Allen @MIA -- Not sure he'll get all the touches as I. Davis got a look (and a TD last week). Jets offense not functioning too well and down in Miami against a decent Miami d it could be trouble. Have held this guy all year...will kill me not to play him.

or

* B. Thomas @TN - Mac Jones starting. Thomas managed a decent game last week including a TD with Mac. TN D statistically very good, but their secondary has many injuries and J. Daniels riddled them with passes last week.

Thanks
 
Want to reask this since it is official. Full PPR league:

Pacheco vs LAC
B Allen @ MIA

Pacheco only got 7 carries and was eased into action last week, his first week back since the broken leg. Reid said his usuage should increase each week. But by how much is the main question here.

Hall is Doubtful and Allen will get the start. Jets Oline sucks as does their offense though.

This is killing me as I need a RB2 and these are my only options.

I would definitely go with Allen there. I don't see any reason the Chiefs would do anything but continue to ease Pacheco back into the fold as slowly as possible considering they have Hunt and will need a fresh Pacheco for the stretch run and playoffs. I expect Allen to get a ton of carries against Miami.

I stick with Winston. His volume is top notch and his fearless nature leads to lots of big games and generally overcomes his errors.

I think I probably go with Thomas. Miami desperately needs this game and Rodgers is looking for excuses about who to blame for this lost season. Also the offense runs through Wilson & Davante.

I probably still roll with Pacheco and cross my fingers. I don't have much faith in the Jets and the offense doesn't go through the running backs.
 
1/2 PPR .. Pick 2

JWarren vs. CLE
NGray vs. LAC
SMcCormick @ TB
KColeman @ LAR

Pick 2 .. Thanks in advance!
Mostly this really depends on the status of Mattison. If he's out I risk it with McCormick.

Warren is probably the other guy I would go with because you have a reasonable chance at 10-15 touches.

If Mattison plays I probably pivot to Coleman in the second spot.
 
Non PPR

London at Min
or Jeudy at Pit
In the four other games started by Winston, Jeudy averaged 9 targets going 6-95-.25. that includes six receptions for 85 yards three weeks ago against Pittsburgh.

I would only start London if you have a gut feeling that Cousins is going to have some kind of monster revenge game this week.

I go dhop... I'm thinking of dhop over mhj
 
Offensive players on byes or dropping like flies for me in a need-to-win to secure a bye in the playoffs matchup.

--------

PPR, TE Premium

Pick 2

Michael Wilson (ARI WR) vs. SEA
Parker Washington (JAX WR) @ TEN
Demarcus Robinson (LAR WR) vs BUF
Chig Okonkwo (TEN TE) vs. JAX
Daniel Bellinger (NYG TE) vs. NO
Sincere McCormick (LV RB) @ TB
 
Non PPR standard scoring:

Please pick 1 WR and 1 flex from the following:

Shakir @ LAR
DJ Moore @ SF
Addison vs Atlanta
Westbrook vs Jax
Swift @ SF
Geurendo vs Chicago

TIA
 
Ok guys ... Dhop or mhj? Full ppr
I lean MHJ in what feels like a revenge and close to a must win game. AZ needs to do some home cooking after a long road trip. I think you can’t go wrong either guy but Jax might just roll over and this becomes a Pollard game

Dhop is on chiefs now lol. But lots of mouths to feed in KC, I still lean MHJ too.
Ohh goodness my bad thought I read Ripley for some reason. Makes it easier to lean MHJ
 
Ok guys ... Dhop or mhj? Full ppr
The problem with Hopkins is, I simply don't think he has 10+ target upside in this offense.

Couple that with the fact the Chargers have a way of making other teams play ugly football I lean towards MHJ.

If two of these guys are going to help you secure a bye... Well, good luck.

Parker Washington is interesting because he had a 10+ target game last week. It's only one data point but it's better than what anyone else is offering, so I almost certainly start him.

McCormick entirely depends on Mattison's status. If both Mattison & Abdullah play, McCormick is a big risk. What you hope for is the Raiders want to give him a longer term evaluation and give him more touches even if the others are active.

If you are not feeling either of those guys I guess Wilson is the "safer" option.

Solid options across the board.

I go with DJ Moore. The Bears are playing well, he's getting nice volume and he's the most talented option you have IMO.

ETA: For a flex play I hate to put too much in the Chicago basket but I probably prefer Swift or possibly Guerendo.

Push to shove I probably risk it with Guerendo.

Nah, Ripley is still playing with the Colonial Marines.

Thanks. Yeah maybe I should have put it’s a super deep league and we start 11 players on both sides of the ball each week. So it’s really debating slots 10 and 11.

Depth clearly matters in the league. I had going in thought to pick Washington and Wilson. McCormick interests me, but I’m projected to lose given losing guys like CMC and Breece for this week and longer. Chig is another “safe” option and Bellinger is another big wildcard and just wanted to see what others might say.

Appreciate your thought.

Sorry spell check victim. I better just leave the opinions to others this morning and to think I haven’t had a drink in quite awhile
 
I pulled the plug on Cousins this week, replacing him with Winston. Now I'm faced with:

Geno @ Ari
Winston @ Pit

Winston @ Pit
IMO it has to be Jameis. He's just been too good and throws the ball so much. Geno has two multi-TD games in 12 starts (and two zero TD games). Geno has three multi TD games in five starts.

I just ride that train until the wheels fall off.
 
Have 2 unknowns....

TE: Hockenson vs ATl, or Njoku @ PITT

Flex: .5PPR Tyreek Hill vs , Jaylen Warren vs CLE, or now Braelon Allen @MIA
 
Given K9 news, considering the following in 5 PPR...

Charbs vs ARI
or...
Guerendo vs. CHI

Leaning Charbs since Williams is going to be out for SF, but its a pretty tepid lean ATM. Talk me out of it?


Also considering two of Ike, Tracy, Charbs in another .5 PPR league

As long as you're comfortable with the risk of turnovers, it's Winston easily.
 
After deciding Herbert was too low upside, I picked up Wilson and am now wrestling mightily with

Winston @ Pitt
or
Wilson (same game)

Thanks
 
FBGs Bowl

A. Jones
Nabers
Dowdle
G. Wilson
Charbs

Pick one to sit the bench.

Interboard Challenge ppr

Tracy
Charbs
Ferguson
B. Cooks

Pick two.

Also I'm not a huge fan of starting Charbs in both leagues.
