[Simplysexie]

Sup Sig, 

I'm a slight underdog looking for high up side play, need one flex and one WR in .5ppr league:

Ingram

Stills

Crowder

Sanu

Keelen Cole

Thanks

 

[Wrigley]

Flex question: .5 PPR

C Thomspon @ NO

J Brown @ CLV

 

[DemonFF]

Start 2/3. Ajayi, Hyde, Ingram. Half PPR. Thanks!

 

[xenon]

Hello and thanks in advance:

League 1: Standard scoring PPR

• QB - Rivers or Ryan (leaning Ryan)
  
• TE - Rudolph or Reed (leaning Reed)
  
• WR - If Devante Adams is active, do I start him vs Lions secondary and with whatever ailment he has?  I need 2 WR's and Flex from this group:  Adams, Golloday, DeDe Westbrook, Ekelar or Rudolph (T.Y. was out this week...ouch....)
  
• ??? Would you rather have Royce Freeman or Derrick Henry for the rest of the year?
  
• ??? Devin Funchess just became available.  Would you rather have him or DeDe rest of year?
  

League 2:  High Performance 

• TE - Cook or Reed (PPR, bonus @ 100 yds) Leaning Reed
  
• QB -Cousins or Dalton (4pts passing TD, 6 pts rushing TD)
  
• RB -Who to start alongside Gordon? Ingram, Ekelar, Derrick Henry (I've been rolling with Gordon/Ekelar)
  
• FLEX -Tyler Boyd or Ekelar, Ingram or Henry @ Flex and based on selections above (FYI starting WR's are Hopkins and Landry and I generally opt for WR @ FLEX)     
  

Thank You Kind Sir.

[DarkKnightsGuru]

Who to start at flex ..

Drake vs Cinci

Coutee 

Lockett 

Crabtree

1 point per reception

TDS are 10 points 

1 point for every 10 yards total 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Morning, Sig! 

O-Flex, 1 PPR

would you start AP, Collins or John Brown? 

 

[xrayveggin]

Thanks Mr. Bloom

0.5 ppr, must start 3

Chris Thompson vs NO

Mixon vs Atl 

Boyd vs Atl 

Ridley vs Cin

JBrown vs Cle

Thanks again for all your help 

 

[icehouse]

Thanks Bloom.

Which one of these players should I drop for a K in a standard 1 player keeper league where the TE spot is a RB/WR/TE flex?  8 starters and 5 bench spots.  QB's get 6 per TD and only -1 per intro.  I figure either Shepard or Gio.  I know Gio will get scooped by the Mixon owner, who has the 2nd best record and a very good team.  Shepard may not get scooped since there are other WR's free since the benches are so short, like Mike Williams, Allison, Crowder, Godwin.

Wilson, Luck, Winston, David Johnson, Gordon, McCaffrey, Breida, Gio, Baldwin, Sanders, Edelman, Shepard, Titans.

 

[Truebluey]

Hi Sigmund, enjoyed you and Matt riffing on Thursday night, you guys are the best in the podcast business (well, shout out to Cecil of course).

Full point PPR, I'm starting my RBs Kamara and David Johnson, WRs Diggs and Tyreek

Which flex to add to them?

Corey Davis, Joe Mixon, Kenny Golladay, Mark Ingram.

Thanks

 

[ramennoodlediet]

Sig,

Half PPR; for my FLEX, John Brown or Alex Collins? Thanks!

 

[MissionCoach]

Tough matchups this week, thanks in advance for the help.

12 team, 1 PPR, standard scoring

Flex: R. Freeman @ Jets. or  D. Thomas @ Jets

Flex:  Ekeler VS Oak. or T. Montgomery @ Detroit

WR:  Coutee vs Dallas  or Stills @ Cincy

RB: Brieda vs Ari  or Hyde vs Balt.

Thanks Bloom!

 

[tthib11]

Hey Sig, 

Pick 2: Smallwood, Allen, L Miller; A Collins

Do you think Coutee is a start over Sanders? Keenum is starting to worry me and Watson has all the Mojo right now. 

You're the best!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

10-team PPR, I have Reed and Brady. Better end of bench stash:  Winston, Olsen, Engram, Doyle, Brate, RoJo, Taywan or Foreman. 

Also, do I drop Gio with his MCL sprain for any of those other guys?

Thanks Sig

engram/taylor drop gio

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Pick 1 RB & 1 Flex between Kerryon, Collins & C.Davis in PPR.

thanks Sig

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

non-PPR:

Coleman or Fuller

and

Stafford vs GB or A Smith @ NO (3 pass TD and no penalty for ints)

.5 PPR:

Crabtree / Lockett / Henry / M Williams

Bonus

Crazy for me to sit Jax D @ KC for 49ers D vs Ari?

if there's points for yards/points allowed maybe sit JAX, depends on scoring system

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

No PPR. 1/10 YDs, 6/TD

Lynch @ LAC + Rudolph @ PHI

or

John Brown @ CLE + S.Shepard @ CAR or D.Westbrook @ KC (pick two)

Thanks.

basically a coinflip, lean lynch side

 

[Gwitt]

Whattup Sig?

Little worried about Mixon being on a pitch count this week in his 1st game back.  Would you roll with Manny Sanders or Lynch in a full ppr for my flex instead?

You rock!  Thx brotherman!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

As always, Thank You for doing this, it's always appreciated. 

Scenerio 1: 12-team, .5 PPR, Passing TD's = 4pts, 3yr Keeper league (QRRWWTFKD)

• WR: AJ Green, TY Hilton, J. Gordon, Crabtree, Watkins, Callaway
  
• TE: Goeddert, Engram

• DST: MIN
  

Question 1: Pick up T. Taylor? If so, who to drop:

• Callaway
  
• Crabtree
  
• other
  

Question 2: WDIS at TE?

• Goeddert vs. MIN
  
• Drop Goddert and pick up:
  
  ASJ @ KC 
  
• R. Ellison @ CAR
  
• Vannett vs. LAR
  
• Gates vs. OAK
  

Question 3: WDIS @ WR2 (should have rolled with Gordon... )?

• Watkins vs. JAX
  
• Crabtree @ CLE
  
• Callaway vs. BAL
  
• T. Taylor (if you answer "yes" to question 1)
  

Again, thanks for your help

thank you for being part of a community that allows me to make this my job!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig!

1) In a standard league, do I roll with Sanders or Corey Davis at WR? Then, do I take the guy left out and start one of them over Aaron Jones? I see you have Jones high in your rankings so I'm guessing stay with Jones.

2) In a PPR league, do I roll with Ingram or Freeman at RB? At my flex, do I roll with John Brown or Coutee? 

Thx!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Standard league

QB:

Ryan @ Pitt (My opponent is starting both Julio and Ridley)

Goff @ Sea

Need 1 WR:

Funchess vs NYG

Cole @ KC

Shepard @ Car (Already starting OBJ)

AC Question

Not sure how much you value handcuffs but I have Hunt and I feel like I need to pickup Ware since he’s a 3 down back.  Do I drop Cole, Lockett or Shepard (I have OBJ and Engram will be back) or hold?

in a nonppr i agree, probably drop shepard

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig--thanks in advance--have 2 questions for you:

in a standard scoring league--need 1

Ajayi or Adrian Peterson 

In a PPR league--which qb do you start.  Also--my opponent this week does have Michael Thomas--so maybe that factors in the decision?

Matt Ryan or Drew Brees. 

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Adrian Peterson or Lamar Miller in PPR?  Please and thanks!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Standard

Need a flex from: Lindsay, M. Williams, Chubb

Thanks!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Pick 3;

Golladay vs GB

Boyd vs MIA

Beckham vs CAR

Davis vs BUF

Coutee vs DAL

Thanks in advance

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

NYJ, CIN, ARI or SF D this week?

Better speculative add in PPR for bench (more long term value)?

M. Walton, W. Smallwood, D. Foreman, M. Brown, S. Ware, T. Gabriel, T. Taylor, C. Brate?

QB - Mahomes

RB - Howard, Michel, D. Lewis, R. Jones, Gio

WR - Brown, Diggs, Golladay, Gordon, M. Williams

TE - Kittle

 

[Captain Crunk]

Hey Sig -

1 PPR - I need 2 out of this group.  Aaron Jones, C Davis, Kerryon, Buck, Geronimo.

.5 PPR John Brown or Crowder?

.5 PPR Corey Davis, Enunwa, or Shady?

TIA!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Shepard or Westbrook PPR....leaning Dede.  Thanks.

lean shepard, westbrook has the toughest match in KC D in slot and had easiest last week.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

1 pt PPR 

qb: dalton 

rb: White and Gurley

wr: Tyreke and cooks

te: rsj 

Who do start at flex: Michel,Mixon, amari cooper, or mike Williams? I left Michel on the bench last night . Im probably going with Mixon if he’s a go. 

mixon

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Who to pick up? ppr

Cohen , Aaron Jones, Royce Freeman - please rank in order.

Really need them for Week 8 and possibly as potential future trade bait.

Cohen vs Jets (w8)

Jones @ Rams

Freeman @ KC

jones cohen freeman for long term value

cohen jones freeman for week 8

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

PPR

WR start 1: Ridley at Pit, C.Davis at Buf, Will Fuller (inj) vs Dal  

Flex start 2 - C.Davis at Buf, Kerryon vs GB, Henry at Buf, Will Fuller (inj) vs Dal, Ridley at Pitt

Thank You!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

who to start at QB?  Mahomes vs JAX or Brees vs WAS

Brees cost me a game last week and I'm a little concerned that last week they trotted out Taysom Hill a few times down in the red zone

Also need to start 3 of these in PPR:

Emmanuel Sanders

Tyler Boyd

Amari Cooper

Marvin Jones

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need two Flexes and one SuperFlex

12 TM PPR

Russell Wilson vs Rams

Kenny Golladay vs GB
Chris Thompson @NO
John Brown @CLE
Tyler Boyd vs MIA

golladay vs brown vs boyd is a coinflip, boyd highest floor, brown highest ceiling unless jones is out. wont talk you out of golladay over either

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Who would you prefer in standard ROS

Kerryon or Fournette/Yeldon?

JAX backs

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Who would you drop question. PPR league.

I was lucky to nab A. Jeffery in waivers and now I need to drop one of the following WRs for a kicker:

* N. Agholor: With Jeffery, I now have two PHI WRs. May actually be a good thing (or not) if the offense gets rolling with Wentz.

* T. Lockett: Baldwin back. SEA offense really clunky right now.

* K. Cole: Could pay dividends and emerge from the trio of Cole/Dede/Moncrief...or not.

Here is my WR depth:

* A. Jeffery, J. Brown, J. Gordon, plus the above three.

Which do you drop?

Thanks

agholor

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Ppr: this week golladay or ridley

Ppr rest of season: Carson or chubb

Ppr rest of season: keke or enuawa 

wont talk you out of ridley or keke

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

PPR league. Need to choose between these two RBs for flex spot.

* A. Collins @CLE - J. Allen's involvement is disturbing along with fumbles. He'll still get touches and CLE rush D not so good.

or

* A. Jones @DET -- Still "splitting" with J. Williams but it's clear Jones is the better back. The matchup is right against a lousy DET run D and if McCarthy has a brain in his head he tilts the touches Jones way. And, GB WRs are banged up.

Which RB?

Thanks

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Defense question. Standard scoring.

* CAR vs NYG -- Extra week to prepare. Front 7 could be tough on Eli. Plus, CAR could milk the clock with the run game.

* CiNCI vs MIA -- Just feel Miami trainwreck here.

* SF D vs AZ -- This game could be a mess in general. Low scorer. Although  it doesn't feel right to go with this  D. That said, experts ranking this D highly this week

Which?

Thanks

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Need a flex in a PPR league:

* R. Freeman @NYJ -- Splitting with Lindsay but now coach says "we need to give Royce more carries." DEN travelling east for a 1pm game. NYJ tougher against the run.

* D. Baldwin vs LAR -- Seems healthy. Will play in the slot, but LAR better inside vs. on the perimeter. Will have to throw to keep up with LAR offense.

* C. Carson vs LAR -- P. Carroll confirmed today that Carson will be back for the game this Sunday. Who knows if he'll split with M. Davis.

Which?

Thanks

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

QB Question.

* M. Stafford vs GB -- Stafford has riddled the GB secondary several times. Forget the stats for recent games, but very very good. Game at home. 

or

* A. Dalton vs MIA -- Dalton is hot. However, Miami secondary not too bad and X will be on AJ. Now reported that J. Ross is out as is Gio. Eifert obviously gone. Mixon will be back. More run oriented attack this week?

Which?

Thanks

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Is Coutee a start if Fuller plays/is active?

still like him as upside WR3/Flex yes esp in PPR
