Week 3 Questions For Bloom (1 Viewer)

Need 2 RB's, a TE and a Flex

PPR

6pts TD

Bonus @ 100 for receiving as well as rushing

@ running back pick 2:  Lat Murry, Gordan, Ekelar, Henry (leaning towards Lat Murray as one starter for sure w/ cook out keeping Henry on bench no matter what and still holding Ingram during suspension)

@ TE:  Jordan Reed or Jared Cook (heavily leaning Reed)

@ FLEX pick 1: Allen Robinson, Tyler Boyd, Jordan Mathews or a RB from above you didn't think should start. (leaning Robinson)

Thank You kind sir!

 
PPR

*Start 1 QB- Brees at Atl , Fitz vs Pitt or Ryan vs NO

*Start 1 WR- Golladay vs NE, Gordon at Det, Fuller vs NYG

*Start 2 RB- L.Murray vs Buf,  Gio at Car and Fournette vs TN

*Start 1 TE- Engram at Hous or OJ Howard vs Pitt

Thank You!

 
Second set of questions...thank you again...

  1. P Rivers or A Luck at QB? (leaning Luck given Rivers v LAR)
  2. Jordan Reed or K Rudolph at TE?  PPR 6PTS TD.
  3. Need a Flex from the following:  PPR and 6PTS TD: Ekelar, Gordan, Crab, Kyle Rudolph/Reed (based on your answer to # 2), Galloday, Keenan Col.
Please NOTE: I am starting Howard and Conner at RB hence Ekelar and Gordan on bench as of now vs LAR.

Thank You
sheesh luck by hair thats a hard call

reed

gordon

 
Thinking ahead to NEXT week. Which QB would you go with?

Concerned about Stafford matchup. Think DAL D tough and could see Zeke controlling the clock limiting DET opportunities.

Options on wire:

* M. Stafford @DAL

* A. Dalton @ATL

* C. Keenum vs KC

* J. Flacco @PIT

* E. Manning vs NO

* R. Tannehill @NE

Thanks

Hi Sig!

Plodder extraordinaire L. Murray was already being touted as a sleeper this week due to likely heaps of garbage time stats (can “garbage time” be 60 mins?) and that was before Cook was declared out. 

Fill in the blank: “I would start Latavius Murray over ___________, ________,  _________ and ___________ (top 20 RBs) this week at Buffalo.”
david johnson kenyan drake leonard fournette lamar miller

 
Hello sig,

Traded Conner Aghalor and Chicago D for David Johnson and trey burton this week.  Now looking at:

mahomes

OBJ, Keenan, TY, Cooks, Babytron 

DJ, AP, D-Henry, Alf Morris, Ware 

gronk, burton

.5 PPR.  

I could still package WR for another RB.  Keenan + in play for Howard.  Cooks straight up in play for Lamar miller.  Let the season unfold with WR surplus, or continue push to strengthen RB?
cooks for miller

 
Stuck with all hype and projects at RB...non-ppr 

Need 2 RBs or 1 and play K Cole at flex.

Collins, P Barber, Lindsay, R Freeman, Michel

leaning Collins and Barber

Or...pick up Murray but would be dropping one of those RBs (as I don’t see dropping Baldwin, Cole, or Goodwin)
i would also drop barber for murray and play him over michel (or collins, razor thin margin)

I have Gurley, drafted Kelly to handcuff.  Is Kelly still worthy of a roster spot as a handcuff?  Or is this a situation where he'll leapfrog Brown should something happen to Gurley and is only inactive because he doesn't play special teams or something?  Or would it be an RBBC and the waters are too muddy to tell?  Currently have Ingram, Coleman and Drake and Malcom Brown is available. 
brown over kelly for now, but could change if gurley goes down

 
4pt passing TD, 0.5ppr

q1. Ebron or Cook

q2. L Miller or C Thompson

q3. One Flex out of:

L Miller/C Thompson (whoever not picked above), 

Golladay v NE,

Lockett v. Dal,

MJJ v. NE,

Josh Gordon @ DET

q4. Pick one: Fitzpatrick, Russ, Stafford

q5. AP or breida

Hi Sig! As always thanks again for this and love the podcast. I see you are cooler on DJ then most. I'm flat out sitting him. My legaue has interesting setup--I can play 1-3 RBs and 2-4 WRs totally 5 starters. It's standard scoring with 5 points for 100 yards bonus. As of now I have Howard along with Hopkins, Evans and JuJu. I'm thinking of rolling Golladay out there as well but also picked up Ckement and Bernard. Thoughts? I'm facing the Mahomes/Kamara owner. 

TIA!

xrayveggin said:
Sig, your advice in week 1 was spot on, thanks.

I know you are down on DJ, but he was my first round pick and I've got to sit one of DJ vs CHI, Devin Funchess vs CIN, John Brown vs DEN. There's really good arguments against all three... Any thoughts are appreciated.
funchess sits

 
Alluro said:
Which player has the Greater Dynasty Value (standard scoring)

Nick Chubb

or

Josh Gordon

The Gordon owner is offering him to me for Chubb. I don't really need help at WR or RB. Who would you bet on more in dynasty? 
chubb

 
JohnnyU said:
Bloom:  Would you play Michel over Fournette regardless whether Fournette plays or not?
lean no, although im very intrigued by michel this week bc of how NE used him and how DET run D has been playing... i wont talk you out of it. fournette re-injury risk vs belichick backfield usage prediction risk

 
LionOfGosforth said:
Hello Sig, hope you are well, 2 quick ones

JimmyG (possible shootout) or ride the Fitz train one more time?

Kittle or Graham. Have picked the wrong one both weeks. Could also drop one for Burton who is a FA.

Thanks man

Need a TE dart through. D. Walker injury killing me early in the season.

Need upside. Projected to lose.

Options (all lousy):

* A. Gates @LAR -- He's been sick. LAR gave up a ton to Cook in week 1. Maybe Gates coming around shape wise and ready to produce??

* A. Hooper vs NO -- Popped last week, but tends to disappear soon after. NO not a great TE matchup.

* I. Thomas vs CINC -- Running a ton of routes. CINCI horrible vs. the TE.

* V. McDonald @TB -- J. James went nuts, but it seems like he and McDonald swap big games. Shootout appeal here.

* T. Eifert @CAR -- Seems to slowly be working in. Sharing snaps with Kroft. Could be due. Healthy.

Who?

Thanks

 
PPR League. Need one WR.

* L. Fitz vs CHI -- touch D, but a little vulnerable in the slot. Can AZ move the ball at all?

or 

* K. Golladay vs NE -- Great matchup. Ascending talent. M. Jones questionable. Stafford will need to throw. A lot.

WHo?

Thanks

 
Bloom...gotta ask about T. Lockett. In my scoring system, you rank him as your #3 WR this week just behind T. Hill, and AB and AHEAD of M. Thomas, Beckham, and Hopkins.

Could you elaborate a little on why you are so high on Lockett this week?

I don't get it. 

Locket's target totals haven't been especially high and it seems like he's getting fluky TDs to save his day. The Dallas D is no joke either.

Very very curious what you see here.

Thanks
is it because return yardage is factored in? i have him in the 20s

 
Bloom,

Thanks for doing this every week.

Rivers vs Rams or Dalton vs Carolina

pick 2 Jordan Howard vs Arizona, James Conner vs Tampa, Gio Bernard vs Carolina

Thoughts on Jordan Howard going forward? I'm not liking Matt Nagy's playcalling in the redzone seems like Howard is going to have less opportunities to score.

Thanks.
chicago O is only going to get better even though it has disappointed. hold

 
Thinking ahead to NEXT week. Which QB would you go with?

Concerned about Stafford matchup. Think DAL D tough and could see Zeke controlling the clock limiting DET opportunities.

Options on wire:

* M. Stafford @DAL

* A. Dalton @ATL

* C. Keenum vs KC

* J. Flacco @PIT

* E. Manning vs NO

* R. Tannehill @NE

Thanks

 
  • Blake Bortles (to have a decent b/u to Watson in case of injury)
  • Malcom Brown - LAR (looks to be the handcuff for Gurley)
  • Ito Smith - ATL (does he actually have any value?)
  • Tre'Quan Smith - NO
  • Tyler Boyd - CIN
Thanks Bloom. 

Maybe I'm blind (entirely possible), but I can't seem to see your response on who you'd recommend I add for Zuerline (I assume it was supposed to be in bold, but it didn't come across as such). And to answer your question on other available QB's: Bortles, Dalton, Keenum, Trubisky, Flacco, Mayfield are the only viable starters. 

Thanks again

This is a bit brutal. Deep league, 17 teams, PPR.  Must start 3 of these 5.  Which 3?

Corey Davis @ Jac

Josh Gordon @ Det

Calvin Ridley vs NO

Kelvin Benjamin @ Min

Brandon Marshall vs Dal

 
Sig, Your opinion on a flex? PPR::: Lindsay, Burkhead, K. Cole, Kupp—I was leaning Lindsay or Cole—-For perspective my starters :: Rivers, Gordon, Drake, Evans, Cooks, Gronk. —I could play Rivers or Stafford,  Rivers/Gordon ppr make me think Rivers.

dalton

 
Rodgers or Jimmy G - .02 per yard - 5 per TD

Fitzgerald or Funchess - .10 per catch - .03 per yard - 6 per TD

 
smith is playing ok but IND D was on fire last week. i would add bortles and play him this week, drop smith, but be willing to go back to smith later
That's what I was leaning to, but concerned Jax will go back to ml the ground game with Fournette back, making Bortles less appealing. 

 
SENOR ESQUONDOLES!

How do you feel about holding 2 QBs in a league that rosters 17? I drafted Mahomes ? and his bye isn’t until week 12. I could drop Yeldon for the likes of Bortles, Tannehill or Flacco. 

Or maybe drop Yeldon for the Packers DST next week? (Or hold Browns @ OAK?)

Also, are you trading Fitzgerald in PPR for whatever you can get or holding and counting on volume/garbage time (Rosen time)?

Also, are you dropping Tyrod in Dynasty Superflex? Maybe he gets traded or latches on somewhere else next year?

Set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul! Good luck this weekend!
if D/ST scoring high, yeldon for GB, but im fine with CLE too. i dont think you can get much for fitz right now

drop tyrod depends for who

wash your feet they drive me to a frenzy
Drop Tyrod in dynasty superflex for Bridgewater?

 
Sig,

I think i wanna do the highlighted in a 1 PPR. Your thoughts?

DJ vs Chi or Lamar vs NYG

DJax vs Pit or Godwin vs Pit

:(

 
Back and forth Sig. 

Wentz or Goff? Leaning Goff but really want to start Wentz!

Hey Sig!  As always thank you for doing this forum.  

I normally don't like to ask normal start/sit questions but I'm in a conundrum here with who to go with in week 3.  It's a full ppr league and I'm having a difficult time figuring out my RB's to start this week.  

I'm pretty sure I'm going with Odell/Manny Sanders/Golladay as my WR's and flex.  Who do you have a good feeling on out of Gio Bernard, Tevin Coleman or Fournette?  Need to start 2 of those 3.  Would normally always roll with Fournette but a retweak of the hammy in-game is scaring me off quite a bit.  I'm 0-2 and could really use this win.  Thanks for your insights my friend!

 
Morning Bloom,

L.Millar, S.Michel, E.Engram, M.Lynch, need 1or 2 if you think I should sit D.Johnson , tuff decision 

Bonus for long Tds, .5 PPR

 
Morning Bloom, rest of season (ppr) A. Ekelor, T. Cohen or S. Michel?  Thanks

Hi Bloom!

Rodgers @ WAS or FitzMagic vs PIT?

Flex: Jamaal Williams @ WAS or John Brown vs Denver. I'm leaning Brown, despite the Denver secondary.

Thanks!
