I think if Minshew starts I lean Goedert. If not probably Knox.Knox or Goedert??
1 of 3:
Pittman, Bateman, J. Meyers??
Pittman>>>Meyers/Bateman
Don't overthink it, he's your best player.

I agree.Heinicke out (and possible lingering concussion effects) means I should start Mooney over McLaurin, right?
I would lean Knox and Pittman.Knox or Goedert??

I would lean Mooney. WFT is struggling all around and Mooney is getting the targetsHeinicke out (and possible lingering concussion effects) means I should start Mooney over McLaurin, right?
AbsolutelyMainly asking for confirmation on my thinking....
Now that Harris is OUT, I'm starting Stevenson over Javonte Williams in a Standard league.
Michel without question. Even if Hendu comes back he's now on 2 weeks of NO practice and I doubt has a huge role.You came through with the good advice on Russell Gage a few weeks back, so back to the well.
Already down 18 to Ekeler. Full PPR
I'm starting:
RB Stevenson
WRs Kupp, Lamb, Van Jefferson
For my flex spot I can start :
Sony Michel (Hendo prolly back)
Jeff Wilson (has done nothing much)
Bateman (looked good with Huntley last week).
Ingram
Thoughts?
I think a lot of us are going through something akin to that. Them's the breaks but it still sucks.I have a feeling I should have started D'Ernest Johnson over Darrel Williams. COVID struck me hard for week 15.
I've got Javonte on my bench ATM for J.Jacobs and Penny. My logic is...I think, sound.Mainly asking for confirmation on my thinking....
Now that Harris is OUT, I'm starting Stevenson over Javonte Williams in a Standard league.
I also think the Jags will be better this week but can you trust them? IDK Will Robinson dominate touches (he is their best chance to get a W)? Is Jones actually in line to get more opportunities and if he is will he do more with them than he has so far this season? It is still Bevell's offense and I don't think Meyer was calling the plays previously..10 per recp / .03 per yard / 6 TD
Hollywood Brown (without Lamar) or Marvin Jones ?
I suspect that Lamar isn't going to play this week.
Taysom he's never had a dud fantasy game as a fantasy starter, even with four picks against the Cowboys he still went for 250+ & 2 with 101 rushing yards.Taysom or Tua (4pt/PaTD)
Knox or Gesicki full ppr
Now that Beckham is playing should I play him over Javonte or Conner?
already down 60 thanks to Kelce and Keenan.
I think Rhamondre & Metcalf should be squarely locked into your lineup. Metcalf is the best talent (sorry Saquon & Javonte) and we have all seen what the NE running game can do and Stevenson in particular when he gets the lead role.OK I know I was just saying we should all wait on roster decisions because Covid keeps scrambling the equation, but two of the options I’m considering are playing tomorrow and I find myself getting less certain the closer we get.
0.5 PPR, need to start three of these guys (one RB, one WR, one flex):
Metcalf @LAR
Pittman vs NE
Stevenson @ Ind
Javonte vs Cinci
Saquon vs Dallas
At the moment, leaning DK/Rhamondre/Javonte
Garappolo then Tua IMO. You probably need to make this call before kickoff tonight which is too bad because I would like to see Wentz against New England.Looking for help with possible L. Jackson replacement NEXT week in the case he can't go. I'm on bye so I can make a move now to attend to this situation. 4 pts per TD pass:
* Tua @NO -- Has been improving, has full compliment of weapons, and you can't run on NO. Indoors too. NO overall probably not the best matchup, but he'll have to pass to move the ball.
* Jimmy G @TN -- Has been surprisingly effective. TN can be beaten through the air and are tougher on the ground so SF may have to throw to win. That said, not sure I trust this guy on the road against a quality opponent.
* T. Huntley @CINC -- This would make things easier that's for sure. Jackson out, throw Huntley in. Has looked decent and does run a bit. The Cinci matchup isn't too scary.
* M. Ryan vs. DET -- The matchup is there that's for sure. Game could have sneaky shootout potential. Indoors.
* C. Wentz @AZ -- Rotten matchup. AZ a bit of a run funnel D too so it could be Taylor until they fall behind.
Which?

Connor & Sanders..5 PPR (1 PPR for TE) , .1 per yard, and 6 points per TD
PICK 2:
Connor
Edmonds
Miles Sanders
Dallas Goedert
Jamaal Williams
The games are going to be played this week, that much is clear.I have like OODLES of questions this week. First it is a 12 team non-ppr league standard ESPN scoring. Second I am in the playoffs so I have a 2 week match with the league leader in wins (12-2 vs my meagre 8-6). But in fairness I outscored every team in the league. Why such a lame record I can not say. OK questions.
QB - I have 3 choices and all are looking good but have some issues.
Jalen Hurts appears to be healed and plays vs WFT a juicy matchup. Bad news is covid has moved the game and I don't know if it will even be played.
Taysom Hill continues to suck as a real life QB and excel as a FF QB. He is matched vs YB in TB. And of course they will be playing from behind. I have no doubt he will run and then run again. But, he could also throw a bunch of INTs and fail to get into the end zone.
Tua Tagovailoa has a juicy match with NYJs. They are missing Waddle but Parker is back.
Right now I lean Hurts
RB - Chubb, Taylor, Montgomery, Conner, Foreman. Taylor is a no brainer. Chubb would be IMO except again - will they actually play this week or will he also come down with covid? I'd like Conner but he is partial with the ankle and the return of Edmonds means they will reduce his workload. Montgomery has a good matchup vs MIN unless they fall way behind early. Foreman is kind of emergency use.
Right now I lean Taylor, Chubb, Montgomery
WRs - Amari, Higgins, D Parker and J Jones. Nothing special and I'm leaning Amari and Higgins but could slide Parker in as the only WR left in MIA against that NYJ defense.
Appreciate any thoughts.
I love the New England running game as much as the next guy but how do you bench Mixon?Rhomondre or Mixon? 0.5PPR and need ceiling. Thanks!
Good choices.Pick 2. 0.5 PPR
Chubb, Conner, Stevenson
not sure if I should be more scared of Belichick’s game plan, Conner’s uncertainty, or Cleveland’s o-line Covid issues.
The games are going to be played this week, that much is clear.
Taysom>Hurts>Tua IMO. Taysom is healthy, has almost as much mobility as Hurts and simply hasn't had a bad game as a fantasy starter. Hurts has been a great fantasy QB but he is probably worse than Taysom as an NFL QB (it's close enough to discuss IMO) and he's coming off a quick recovery on an ankle sprain that many were suggesting was closer to a HAS than a normal one. Until we see him on the field we should assume that his mobility will be somewhat impacted.
That Raider defense has been deeply susceptible to chunk plays in the run game. Moving the game and all the covid concerns definitely make this one tougher to predict but Chubb is still, presumably your best player at the position.
I have no problem with Montgomery over Conner because Montgomery is in line for more touches. He is a good talent and Minnesota has been a slumpbuster all year. I may even rank him above Chubb if it were PPR, but it's not.
Taylor>Chubb>Montgomery
Higgins has emerged over the last several weeks as the #1 WR we all thought he would be in Cincinatti. Amari has barely been a flex play since week 9. He has been hurt, and always seems to be nursing something and the Cowboys are facing a Giants team that is simply bad. This could be a feast for the Dallas defense & running game. Not sure I like Amari.
Parker is more of a speculative play but he is a consistent 8 target guy and Waddle looks to be out this week. The Dolphins have a well below average running game so grinding away an easy victory seems less likely and if they are up big will probably need to work the short passing game to grind the clock. It's a big risk but I kind of like Parker a little more than Amari this week.
Higgins>>Parker>Amari
Thanks. Yes, I know it’s a good problem to have.Good choices.
Chubb>Stevenson>Conner because of the ankle, return of Edmonds and I think Stevenson is a decent bet for a TD even if Conner is the most likely short yardage TD guy in the game.
Garappolo then Tua IMO. You probably need to make this call before kickoff tonight which is too bad because I would like to see Wentz against New England.
Jimmy G is a steady Eddie and shouldn't disappoint even if he may not blow the doors off anything. Tua and Wentz are closer but I think they have lower floors and maybe, just maybe a little more upside.
I can see a hopeful argument for Huntley as he seems to be a competent runner but I have no idea about him yet, maybe after this week. Although I think by next week Lamar will be back.
If Lamar can't run than I would not view him as a better option than the other QBs based off his skills in the pocket. I think he is a little underrated in the pocket but the thing that makes him great for fantasy is his running ability which will probably be limited if he plays. I would probably lean Tua.Hmmm.
Haven't really looked at Jimmy G's stats at all. He's thrown 2 TDs in 5 of the last 6 games (and also been 15+ points in those same games). Better than what I would have thought.
Minus Mitchell as well most likely and while J. Wilson is serviceable and Deebo will certain get snaps in the backfield, maybe they need to throw more than usual...especially against TN who are tougher against the run.
All that said, if Lamar is active no way I'm benching him.
Non marquee TEs are weird creatures, that is to say every TE except Kelce, is very difficult to predict.TE.. ppR
Henry-not much yardage, seems TD dependent, Mac does look for him in the red zone
Kmet-started to come on a little, step back last week
Njoku- picked him up when Hooper, Landry out with Covid. Now the game is postponed until Monday and those guys could be back with the new testing protocols.
-both Kmet and Njoki play on Monday. I could wait to see if Hooper is playing, if so start Kmet.
Who would you start?
Look I think Pittman is a legitimate #1 WR in the NFL, maybe not in fantasy but in the NFL he's a legit #1 and I think he should be viewed that way.I need either Michael Pittman or Amon-Ra St. Brown as a flex play .5 PPR.
A little worried about Pittman’s matchup vs. the Pats (most likely drawing JC Jackson in coverage).
St. Brown has gotten the targets the last 2 games, and the Lions should be playing catch-up against the Cards.
I will take any/all advice.
I answered this a few posts above.PPR
Mixon vs Den
or
Rhamondre Stevenson vs Indy?
my other RB is Kamara
Folk has been better across the board in fantasy. Prater suffers because his team is very efficient scoring TDs and I doubt that changes this week. Indy has a better shot at forcing FGs v NE than Det does v AriPrater vs Det
or
Folk vs Indy?
thanks for the reply. Hooper received 21 targets as well during that time, but if he is out, Njoki should see a bump in targets. Hooper being out is the key.Non marquee TEs are weird creatures, that is to say every TE except Kelce, is very difficult to predict.
What I will say, when looking at their numbers Kmet has 33 targets compared to 15 for Henry and 16 for Njoku (who missed one game). The metrics are close all around but in a PPR I go with the guy getting so much more volume.
Kmet>Henry>Njoku
I don't think Goff is any safer than any of the others.This is sad, but true; need 1QB from the following. 1QB LEAGUE, believe it or not. 6pts all TDs, etc
Mayfield, Hurts, Goff, Huntley, Minshew.
Already started Kelce and Ekeler, so really trying to minimize risk. Sadly feeling like Goff is the only "safe" play.
Thanks, fellas.
I think it is a coin flip between Cousins and Tua based on their matchups. I don't like Huntley against Green Bay.Anticipating Lamar being out tomorrow, who would you start? 6pt TD lg
Huntley vs GB. He did well enough last week, and his style of play is similar to LJax.
Cousins vs CHI. Good matchup, and I expect it to be a shootout. Cousins should be good for two TD and an INT. He would he my "safe" start
Tia vs NYJ. Boom or just pick, IMO. I don't know enough about his play, but I don't think NYJ is too good.
Thoughts?
