Week 4 Questions for Bloom (1 Viewer)

[Andrew74]

This is a dynasty league and I'm stacked at WR, but I need some help. Pick 3. Julio, AJG, DT, ODB and Fitz.

 

[Hurl Bruce]

In one league (nonPPR), I am thin at WR and strong at RB (plus I have Gronk).

I have at RB: Arian Foster, Jeremy Hill, Karlos Williams, Alfred Morris, Matt Jones, Duke Johnson.

At WR: Dez Bryant, John Brown, Stevie Johnson, Vincent Jackson, DeSean Jackson.

1) Should I flip one of my RBs for a WR? What level WR would Karlos or Jones get me?

2) Is there any value to Duke Johnson?

 

[tigerz]

nvm

 

[Chaos Commish]

If you had my team in our league what would you do to fix it?

 

[ajgargano]

10Tm .5 PPR

My lineup for Week 4:

QB- Andrew Luck

QB- Carson Palmer

WR- Demaryius Thomas

WR- Mike Evans

RB- Chris Ivory

RB- Danny Woodhead

TE- Charles Clay

FLEX- Donte Moncrief

FLEX- John Brown

K-

DEF-

B- Dion Lewis, Andre Ellington, Lamar Miller, David Johnson, Christine Michael, Thomas Rawls, Bilal Powell, Ronnie Hillman

Right now planning to cut Hillman and Powell for my K and DEF for the week. But now there's news that Luck's injury is more serious than initially thought and he might not play. If I have to cut a third guy for a desperation QB (Winston, Fitzpatrick, etc.), who do I say goodbye to? Rawls?

 

[ant525i]

Hey Sig,

Would you trade Ellington for Karlos Williams in a PPR?

 

[Sienna2012]

I own Matt Ryan and T. Taylor. I am currently undefeated and looking to move Taylor for Big Ben, I am just looking ahead to the stretch run, Is this a smart move, considering the offensive juggernaut Pitts offense was before Ben went down?

 

[fantasycurse42]

I got a few opinions I'm interested in:

Lamar Miller - Is it him, the situation, or a combination of both?

Steve Smith rest of season, WR1/2/3?

Same for Keenan Allen

Calvin Johnson - What do you expect from him for this season? Any chance he just packs it in if the Lions are as bad as they look?

Dion Lewis - PPR RB1 rest of season?

Also, Vick looked mediocre - Is this game what we can expect from Brown for the next month?

 

[JasonRay23]

Need 2 out of the following non ppr

John brown

Mike Evans

Moncrief

Allen robinson

stevie johnson

Also luck or carr?

 

[thatonedude]

Who is a better bye week QB fill in, Bradford or Weeden?

 

[DarkManX]

Standard scoring and I need to start two out of these three guys.

Vincent Jackson, Marvin Jones and/or Percy Harvin.

I also have Ted Ginn riding pine atm.

Leaving towards Jones and Harvin.

 

[Banger]

Bloom...love your stuff and what you do on the site.

How do you see the weather for the Phi-Was game effecting Reed's ranking/production?

 

[PatrickT]

Would you trade either Rishard or JThomas straight up for Matt Jones?

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Thinking of picking up Juwan Thompson pre-emptively. Any chance he can seize the starter role soon?

think its committee all year there

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Not specific to week 4 - but is Matthew Stafford ever going to live up to his potential or come close to his 2011 season again?

I have him in a TD heavy scoring dynasty league and am close to moving him.

no, at least not while lombardi is the OC the OL is not working

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

What's John Brown's upside ROS? He's currently my WR2 (i'm thin at WR)

still see him as high ceiling WR2 - just needs to get the long catches instead of long PIs. the pie in this offense is going to be if Palmer stays healthy. Unless Fitz is going to catch 25 TDs this year, brown will get his too

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Should I trade away Blount for DeMarco Murray? Currently trotting out Abdullah and Gore as my RBs.

Also, should I start Abdullah or Crowell this week?

Pick 1 WR this week, Keenan Allen/Moncrief/ARobinson/Stevie

Also Abdullah or Stevie in the Flex (another league)

Also, who to drop in case Luck can't go?

1. Crowell

2. Adbullah

3. DeMarco Murray

4. Stevie J

5. Allen Robinson

Or should I just take a 0 at kicker?

no

AA

allen

AA

drop crow

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

What are the chances Hillman becomes the bell cow back over a healthy CJ Anderson? Is there a 3rd rb that could be in the mix (like Anderson last year)?

he's not built to be a bell cow. but he'll maintain large enough role to render Anderson more of a flex play. juwan thompson is more of a utility back than a threat to get a lot of work.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Would you trade leveon bell for julio jones?

QB: Rivers

QB: B. Roth

QB: Mariota

RB: Bell

RB: Ingram

RB: Forsett

RB: D. Martin

RB: Ivory

RB: CMike

WR: James Jones

WR: Steve Johnson

WR Martavis Bryant

WR: Rueben Randle

TE: Kelce

lean no bc julio is already on inj report

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

David Johnson have any value in non dynasty formats?

yes, massive upside with his talent and this offense. obstacles to opportunity, but one of the top bench stashes without a doubt

 

[fightingillini]

Hi Sig,

PPR league. Start Woodhead or Bernard?

Same league. Start James Jones or Moncrief?

 

[rommy]

Hi Sig!

Got a question regarding a trade in a Standard scoring league that starts 2 rb, 2 wr, and 1 flex.

Giving: Frank Gore, Jordan Matthews and James Jones

Getting: Dion Lewis, Calvin Johnson, Marvin Jones

the rest of my rbs are: leveon, woodhead, blount, crowell, powell

the rest of my wrs are: deandre hopkins, stevie johnson, mike wallace

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Bloom, 3 questions. Both leagues 0.5PPR, 25yds/pt return

Need 3 out of the following: Ivory, Abdullah, Lamar Miller, Maclin, Stevie Johnson, Doug Martin, Powell, Rawls

1 out of the following: Lamar Miller, Marvin Jones, Rishard Mathews

1 out of the following: CJ Anderson, Jeremy Maclin, Allen Robinson, John Brown

thank you

rawls AA ivory

jones

brown

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

My current rb's are Charles, Matt Jones, Abdullah, and Yeldin. With all the speculation of Christine Michael coming out party would you drop Yeldin to pick him up? I definitely have to drop a rb to pick up another rb in our league.

i wouldnt go that far yet. jones would be the one to cut

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig...

What are your thoughts on the dynasty values of Matt Jones and Dion Lewis?

Thanks man,

jones should start next year and looks great. would go in mid-late first of rookie drafts now i bet

lewis looks elite and is only 25. who knows if it will last, but i would also pay a late first for him

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Sig appreciate your help each week sir. Have start/ sit questions for 2 leagues, both 1 pt ppr

1. Cooks/stevie/woodhead/matt jones/abdullah/smokie/cja

Please pick 1 wr and 1 flex

2. Marvin jones/woodhead/stevie/lamar

Please pick 1 for flex

Also giving brady for d.thomas/cooper/hilton/ ok in a 6 pt qb td league?

Thank you sig

smokie and woodhead

woodhead

im down with that assuming you have a good QB2, or if its PPR and you are hurting at WR

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Stick with Lamar Miller and Justin Forsett, or try to offload them? Recommended RBs to target if I traded one or both of them? Thanks!

i wouldnt sell either at current prices. suppose if you can get karlos for miller, im ok w that

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

In 12 team PPR redraft. Current team

QB-Dalton

RB-E.Lacy, M.Ingram, J.Stew, T.Yeldon, T.Rawls, Dav.Johnson, Duke Johnson, D.Williams

WR-O.Beckham, A.Robinson, J.Brown, V.Jax

TE-K.Rudolph

I am 0-3 and thinking. Of getting. Another WR like R.Randle with the latest News with V.Cruz. Or pick up upside WR like a D.Parker,Green Beckham, P.Dorsett.

I play in 7 leagues but this is my oldest league and the one I care for most. I can go 1-6 and be ok if I win in this one.

What moves should I make?

Thanks.

id drop williams for a WR - randle sounds good. maybe try to package w of your RB2/WR2 types for a stud

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

I tried to get Dez to stash, so I offered Colston and Gurley. Got shot down. I was offered Dez for Blount and Marvin Jones. Other RBs are Gore,Karlos,Gurley. No brainer, right?

looks solid to me

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sigmund,

1pt PPR. Prior to hearing the latest rumors, dropped CMike last night. Missed on Rawls, but picked up Dunbar. Should I grab CMike off the waivers again with the possibility of him being active now?

My other RBs are Miller, Gore, Spiller and AZ DJohnson.

If so, who do you recommend dropping?

As always, appreciate your advice!

i would carry cmike over dunbar

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

My team is fairly stacked at RB/WR/TE in a 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 2 RB/WR/TE league (PPR) with good depth. Should I feel okay with Winston/Bradford/Sanchez at QB or should I look to make a move for a QB? If so, who on my team should I put on the trading block? There are only iffy starting QBs on waivers (i.e. Manziel/McCown, Hoyer/Mallet).

Roster for context:

QB: Winston/Bradford/Sanchez

RB: Ingram

RB: Dion Lewis

WR: AJ Green

WR: Landry

WR: John Brown

TE: Olsen

Flex: Stevie Johnson

Flex: James Jones

Bench:

Foster

Yeldon

C.J. Anderson

Hillman

Robocop

Richard Rodgers

DeAngelo Williams

Khiry

id be open to dealing foster for a top QB

 

[PosterNutBag]

hey bloom,

was checking out the 10-second primer this week for one of my teams and noticed your rankings had Spiller over Vereen on one of my PPR teams

so you think the Saints will finally take the training wheels off Spiller this week? just interested in any comments you have about these two RBs this week for PPR

thanks!

 

[grantsa4]

Hey Sig,

Non ppr
Start 2 te's from Cameron, L Green, D Allen and Barnidge?

Also, drop KDavis or K Robinson for Zenner?

Thanks as always and good luck this weekend.

 

[montana_grizzly_bears]

Need 2 from Chris Ivory, Frank Gore, Devanta Freeman, Ryan Mathews. Standard scoring with bonusesvat 20 carries or 5 recepts. Leaning Gore and Ivory but not sure.

 

[Jeremy]

Need 1 RB to go with Peterson in non-ppr league

Ivory (early am)

Foster (noon)

Abdullah (MNF)

Foster is supposedly going to be a game time decision, so do I just go with Ivory if he's active or hope that Foster can go knowing I have Abdullah as a fallback option? I should be a solid favorite this week, especially with Antonio Brown only getting my opponent 4 points.

 

[Trohitreddy]

Is it time yet to drop stevie or spiller in ppr for cmike sig? Also david johnson and matt jones availavlble on the waivers. Add any of those?

 

[Mavzfan]

Do you trade for Dez even with Jets Bills week 15/16? give up Stevie/JamesJones, what about giving Nuk?

1PPR

 

[scam08]

Sig

Am fascinated with CMike upside like you. In a standard non-ppr league that starts 2 RB 2 WR and 1 RB/WR/TE Flex Have

Ben, Rivers, Vick

Bell, Gore, David J, Duke, Spiller, Sproles, Abdullah

Cobb, J Brown, Stevie, Decker

Rudolph

Would you drop one this week for CMike?

Or wait and drop Vick next week? Panic move, I just dropped CMike for Vick this week. (This league holds onto QB's with a death grip - 12 team league - 27 Rostered). What you think?

PS Tough loss for your Steelers. Cant be too upset with Tomlin, nice to see a coach with some stones. Scobee wasnt exactly instilling confidence.

Thanks for the help as always

Ron

 

[scam08]

Hey Sig

Another league. The guy with Calvin is 0-3 and looking for backs. Was sniffing at Foster. I was reluctant and looking to counter. Wondering what your thoughts are. This is 1 QB 2 RB 2 WR 1 TE Standard Non PPR league. Here's my roster

Rivers

Foster, Gore, Karlos, McCoy, CJA, Duke, CMike

Edelmen, J Brown, Stevie, Decker

Kelce, Reed

Would you do Foster for Calvin? How about McCoy for him? (He actually just proposed that) - I'm 1-2 by the way

 

[Rubi]

FPC scoring

I need 3 of the following:

R.Randle @ Buff

J.Kearse vs Det

K.Rudolph @ Den

O.Daniels vs Minn

 

[motoclube]

Ebron @SEA, Rodgers vs SF, Walford @CHI

Thanks, Sig!

 

[LionOfGosforth]

Standard scoring would you drop Hillman or Woodhead to pick up Rawls or Blue? I don't own Lynch or Foster, just looking for a decent 1 week flex play. Also Cam @ Bucs or Palmer v Rams?

Thanks!

 

[MakePlays]

Sig,

Full-point PPR.

1) Would you have any problem benching Allen Robinson as a flex for Robocop (now that it looks like he'll play)? I am going against the Andrew Luck owner.

2) I've been streaming QBs to little success. I was just offered Carson from a team that needs WR help. I own ODB, Jordan Matthews, Allen Robinson, Donte Moncrief and Martavis Bryant. Would you flip a WR for Carson or continue to stream?

Thanks so much. I appreciate the advice!

 

[ex-ghost]

Thoughts on Rawls in dynasty? Worth trading a high pick for? How risky is it to think of him as Lynch's replacement?

 

[Gandalf]

Hi Sig,

I am wrestling with some lineup decisions...

Pick 3 RBs: Foster, Gurley, Gordon, Abdullah, Matt Jones

For WRs: do I start Agholor (one last time!) or pick up Allen Hurns, Tedd Ginn, Ty Montgomery, Roddy White, Leonard Hankerson. I'm almost thinking maybe dropping Agholor for Ty Montgomery might make sense.

It's a dynasty league so I'm trying to factor in an eye toward the future and not only win now. Though I want to win! I'm 1-2 so far and likely headed to 1-3 this week.

Thank you!

 

[bcat01]

PPR flex - Ivory, Woodhead or Garcon?

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

2 questions for you today.

1. 0.5 ppr league

I have a ton of RB depth but am lacking at WR. What WRs should I target in a trade where I give Cooks and Woodhead/Abdullah? How much better of a player can I target by including Abdullah as opposed to Woodhead?

2. Full PPR league

After last night's news, would you drop Wallace for C. Michael? Depth at receiver here. RBs are Foster, CJA, Ivory, Powell, Dunbar.

Thanks!

cooper or evans

not yet

 

[Bracie Smathers]

Hey Sig,

Another week another RB question for you.

What is your opinion of Oakland RB Taiwan Jones?

He's listed as the primary backup to Latavius Murray but has an interesting background in that the Raiders switched him to CB and only this year switched him back to RB. In my league he's designated as a CB/RB so if he gets any sort of playing time I could reap a windfall but I am curious what your take is on Tai's RB ability?

 

[ant525i]

10 team PPR, would you trade TY and Ellington for Mike Evans? I have ABrown, Landry, DGB, Start 2WR, 1 flex

12 team PPR auction, start 3 WR 1flex. JBrown, Moncrief, Landry, Dez, DGB, Aghloor. Would you package any of the two for Evans? Would you include Dez or hold on to Dez?

 

[ant525i]

0-3 and need to make a move. 12 team 1 keeper redraft, start 2RB, 2WR, 1 WR/TE flex..

Trying to trade for Foster. Would Gore and Cooks seal the deal?

My other RB are Abdullah, David Johnson and Dion Lewis.

WR are Cobb, Evans, Moncrief.

TE Rudolph/Gates/Walker
