Week 5 2025 who should I start thread **OFFICIALLY UNOFFICIAL** (1 Viewer)

[Chaka]

PPR league. Add/Drop question:

From reporting this morning, it sounds like B. Irvings injuries may be more significant than thought. Has a foot and shoulder injury. Out a couple weeks maybe more.

* Question: Pick up S. Tucker and drop one of RJ Harvey or Z. Charbs?

Need RB help bad.

THanks!

I guess it depends on whether or not you think Irving could get shut down for the season or not. If you're looking for a bridge player Tucker could be fine but, I believe he will be a clear #2 for the Bucs (that's a total guess even if Sleeper sent an alert this AM saying the same). I think both Harvey and Charbs have a bit clearer path to relevance. They are behind two of the most injury prone RBs in the league. Charbs is already relevant on his own. Harvey, I think needs more time before he has stand alone value. Tucker may need two RBs to go down to get the same opportunity share. and I question his stand alone value, at least until I can get a look at it today.

It's close but, I would probably stand pat.

Yeah I'm afraid I agree with you.

Thanks!

2 of 4 PPR

etienne v KC
Meyers vs IND
KWIII vs TB
Pittman vs LV

I lean toward the top 2 based on usage (with bowers out) but a lot places have kiwi high. Hard for me to trust with charbs in there

ETN, Walker, and Pittman all have + matchups. I'd look to see if you can bench anyone else.

If you have to bench 1 of them, I *think* I'd bench Walker.

Pittman vs the Raiders should be an absolute smash. He practiced in full yesterday, so I think the hammy is good. But could re-aggravate it if that's your concern.

I am good with Meyers now that Bowers is out.

Personally I would consider Pittman over ETN but, it's still a close between all four of those guys. Go with your gut here.

Meyers>Pittman>ETN>KWIII

KWIII and/or Pittman over Tet or Garrett Wilson? I do have Pittman in but was thinking about Meyers

Buffalo IMO. They're more likely to run up the score and force NE to keep up. The Jags seem to make all they're games ugly.

But KC is a fine choice too

But>KC

 

[Truebluey]

I don't normally do this, but I'm perplexed due to losing
Irving and Pearsall this week. Need 1 for my flex: ppr
Keon Coleman v New England
Nick Chubb @ Baltimore
Troy Franklin @ Philadelphia
Rico Dowdle. V Miami

Thanks

Dowdle for sure

Well that sure worked out! Thank you! (I really needed him as it turned out - won a 170-163 barn-burner).
