[JoeyJoJoJuniorShabadoo]

Hello Bloom:

QB: Dalton vs Pit, Cousins vs. Ari

WR2: Enunwa vs Ind, Mike Williams @ Cle, C Rogers @ NYJ

Flex: Hyde vs Chargers, Morris @ GB 

Scoring: 1 point per 10 yards rushed / received, 2 point bonus for 100, 150 and 200 yards, 0.5 PPR

 

[DemonFF]

Flex half ppr. Coutee, djax or latavius if cook happens to be out? thanks!

 

[JIslander]

Thanks Sig.

Standard league.

Have a RB problem with Conner, Collins P Lindsay and Morris.   I need to pick two to start.  And 1 flex from RB or WR below.

I have also stockpiled RBs with the hope one takes the lead: Chubb, D'Onte Foreman and R. Jones.  Are these guys worth holding? Vs getting another WR to start this week? Right now I have C. Godwin in....Available: C. Rogers, Sanu, Enunwa, R. Anderson. G. Allison, D. Westbrook, C. Hogan. Keke, Gabriel, other RBs available: M. Davis, T. Cohen, Ivory, Clement (cant play till next week), L. Murray, Bibbs.

I'm projected to lose this week so looking for upside.

 

[Loomba]

Hey Sig,

Desperate for a win... 0.5 PPR league.

For QB - Dalton or Newton?   I am leaning Dalton.

Pick any 3 from the following - Alfred Morris, Royce Freeman, Ekeler, Crowell, Brandon Cooks. Tyler Boyd, DeSean Jackson.

For TE - Cook or Reed?

DST - Colts or Titans (Points earned for turnovers and points lost for yards and points given up)

Thanks for your help and patience!

 

[The General]

KeKe Coutee or Alfred Morris

.5 pt PPR. 

THX!!!

 

[theEinherjar]

Morning Bloom!

     TE woes this morning - I have OJ Howard and Cameron Brate. Austin Hooper is on the WW.  

     Would you keep any of thse guys long term?  I feel like the TB TE could be valuable but I don’t know which one to keep.  

     Should I just stop using 2 roster spots in TE, drop Brate and Howard, play Hooper this week, then stream going forward?

     Should I play Brate, stash Howard, and wait to see how things shake out in TB?

     Should I drop one of the two guys in TB, keep one, and grab Hooper?  If so which do I drop?

     Am I over thinking this? (Yes)

     Im in a 12 Team league. PPR scoring. 6 Bench spots and an IR spot.

     Any thoughts you have would be greatly appreciated and, as always, thanks for all the work you do!

 

[BobbyLayne]

Sanity check - think I know the answers.

Lindsay or Cook? Probably gotta go with the guy who has the less favorable matchup since Cook will be on a snap count.

Brate or Olsen? Hate basing decisions solely on health but feel like I have to go with the safe route.

Pick 2 amongst Allison, Westbrook & M. Williams. Noticing a trend here? Gotta go with the two healthy guys even though I prefer Geronimo. Just can’t risk a zero - GTD on MNF.

Neat hobby.

 

[goldenboy232]

With Thompson out, is Peterson a better flex start than Coutee (PPR league)? I think AP gets volume, but CAR listed as "bad" rushing matchup plus with other injuries not sure how WAS gets ahead in that game, which means not an ideal game-script for Peterson I assume?

 

[zamboni]

Olsen or Kittle? PPR league.

Both battling health issues - concerned Olsen risks aggravating injury and/or is limited. But MNF game for Kittle complicates things.

Thanks.

 

[Nate Cousineau]

Need to start two (ppr). Currently leaning Lockett and J. Gordon, but also have Collins, Godwin, Morris, and I. Smith. 

 

[tthib11]

Hi Bloom,

Winston or Luck? 5 pt TDs

PPR

Pick 2: Allen, Collins, Juszczyk, Mack, Lamar Miller.

Do you think Juszczyk gets the volume? Thinking him over Collins. 

Sanders or Coutee? Worried about a QB change for Sanders 

Thanks!

 

[DukT]

Hey Sig, 

Full point ppr, with D. Cook on a pitch count I need to decide between D. Lewis, Murray or I. Smith

Thanks

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig, am I crazy for wanting to move Zeke and Kerryon?

My Thoughts:

- Cowboys offense scares me, as does the upcoming schedule of Jags, Titans, Eagles and a bye in 4 of his next five weeks. 

- KJ, the talent is there but with the hype surrounding him and lack of rational coaching, I would prefer to have a dependable RB2 type such as Hyde. 

10 Team - Standard - Start 2RB - 2WR - 2 Flex

My roster (starters in bold):

QB: Winston, Big Ben

RB: Zeke, Kerryon, Yeldon, Derrick Henry, Chubb

WR: AJ Green, JuJu, Sterling S, KeKe, Godwin, Nelson A, Tre'Quan Smith

TE: Gronk

K: Santos

DEF: Bears (thank you!)

Thinking of moving Zeke for a lower end RB1, and then upgrading from KJ to a high end RB2 or RB2 type. 

Also, would you consider selling JuJu after this week? Have an offer of Golladay and either Lynch or Chris Carson. 

Thanks again!

get golladay and carson

hold zeke and kerryon

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Simple one:   Alfred Morris or Aaron Jones

nrvermind:  freeman is out so rolling with Coleman 

cheers! good to see you pop up here!

 

[ImTheScientist]

Antonio Callaway or Valdez-Scantling?

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

4 leagues

0.5 PPR Flex (pick 1): Chris Godwin, Chester Rogers, Keke Coutee or Royce Freeman

0.5 PPR Flex (pick 1): Chris Thompson, Alex Collins, Chester Rogers or Mike Davis

0.5 PPR Flex (pick 1): John Brown, Doug Baldwin, Chris Godwin or Kenyan Drake

PPR 1 WR & 1 Flex (pick 2): Nyheim Hines, Tarik Cohen, Keke Coutee, Sammy Watkins and Tyler Lockett

Thanks! GL this weekend.

 

[22Steve]

1 PPR league. Please rank:

James White

Shady McCoy

Derrick Henry

Godwin

Coutee

Cory Davis

Buck Allen

John Brown

Thanks!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

Im 2-3 in a deep 12 man .5 ppr league.

Who do you think is the best last spot on bench guy. I'm hoping for that lottery ticket - league winner. Ware, JReynolds, Malcolm Brown, Rashaad Penny, Burkhead, or Ito Smith. 

FYI, I already have Ronald Jones, Tre'Quan Smith, DForeman, and Chubb. I'm really shooting for that league winner. lol

Also, should Russell Wilson be the drop for said "end of bench guy" if no one else wants to trade for him and I just picked up Winston?

hold wilson, like smith the best of the lotto tix

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Q1: L murray or d cook? Waivers barren at rb unless Bibbs is viable assuming Thompson out

Q2:  12 team, redraft 0.5ppr, start qb, 2rb, 2wr, te, flex

watson, winston

kamara, ingram, d cook, L miller, L murray

AB, evans, m thomas, funchess, marvin jones jr

ertz

I just acquired michael thomas despite already having 2 saint running backs because the deal was too good to pass up. so my weekly lineup will have 3 saints players... do you seeing this as a concern? should i be selling thomas or ingram even if i only get $0.80-0.90 on the dollar?  for reference these three only scored 34 fantasy points combined last monday  night despite the saints scoring 43 points.... so should i trade one of them or just start all 3 each week and cringe when taysom hill scores TD's? TIA

no worries about having a lot of saints

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Last two WR spots - 12 team PPR. Neither would be needed in lineup currently.

choose from Godwin, Tre’quan, MVS, Christian Kirk, Cam Meredith.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hi Sig, 

I was Saquon-ed on Thursday night and am now behind the 8-ball this week. Starting OBJ didn't help my cause much either.

Anyway, obviously looking for high upside players now with the rest of my lineup. I have Mahomes at QB so I'm in good shape there I hope.

With Ingram on a bye, my RB choices are Jordan Howard, TJ Yeldon, and Marshawn Lynch. Need 2 of those 3 to try to hit a home run.

We treat TE's as just another receiver. With OBJ already burned, my choices at Rec are Keenan Allen, Travis Kelce, and Gronk. Need 2 of those as well.

Your help is appreciated.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig. Two questions:

1)  in a standard league, I need either Brandin Cooks or Corey Davis this week.  

2) in my dynasty league (19 man roster) I have AB, Cooks, Corey Davis, Sanders, and Trequan Smith at WR. At RB, I have Kamara, Connor, Aaron Jones, Henry, and Malcolm Brown . My question is, do I grab James Washington to backup AB and see what happens next year, or grab Spencer Ware, since he’s somehow available on waivers? 

As always, thx for the help! 

washington

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Fordham or Lehigh?

Fordham #strongisland

 

[moondog]

Hi,

.5ppr - We can start 4 WRs.

I'm starting AJGreen and Cooks, need two more from Watkins, Gordon, Edelman , Fuller or Ridley ?

Thanks

 

[richn]

Dr. Bloom...McCoy or L Miller PPR?

 

[onthevirg]

Good morning and thanks in advance.

.5 pt ppr

Kittle or Njoku?

Looks like Kittle will go, but I’ll have no backup if he doesn’t.

 

[Bad_Mo]

Thanks in advance.  Need to pick 2 from...

Lamar Miller v. BUF

Will Fuller v. BUF

Tarik Cohen @ MIA

 

[ultraviolet]

Hi Sig:

Thanks for all good work duirng the week, every week. Two questions

1. Projected underdog in PPR in one leage

Need to start two of C. Davis, Q. Enunwa, and T. Gabriel? 

You're big on Gabriel. Pick two.

2. Projected even fight in another PPR league. 

Start Goff or Winston at QB and one of Coutee, M. Davis or K. Drake at flex?

 

[skillz]

In a nonPPR would you go with:

Corey Davis vs Balt

Enunwa vs Indy or

Goodwin vs GB

Thanks! 

 

[JetMaxx]

Standard

Baldwin or Stills

 

[Whirlaway]

Sig,

Need 2 flex in a PPR:  s. watkins, fuller, r. anderson, rudolph, kittle, ebron, enunwa

Need 1 RB and 1 flex in PPR: t. coleman, l. miller, fuller, m. davis. r. jones, t. gabriel, c. rogers

thanks man!

 

[Dizzy]

Bye week blues... play Lamar Miller, or roll dice w/ Sony Michel?

Thanks Sig.

 

[Team Smokin']

Bloom, we can't hit them all. I followed your target program on a few players. Unfortunately A Collins has slid the other direction big time. This week would you stick with him or start Morris or M Davis?

Collins

Morris

Davis

.5 ppr

Pick 2

Edelman

Boyd

Ridley

Cheers

 

[Chief]

A Peterson or M Davis as RB2.

TD Heavy:  10 pt per TD. 1 pt per 10 yards.

Worried about both in terms of volume for different reasons.

Thanks

[Sigmund Bloom]

Mr. Bloom,

What is your best guess, on how the ROS plays out for Devonta Freeman?  Reason I ask is, I have both Freeman and Coleman, and have been getting offers for Coleman.  Obviously, if this is more than a one or two week thing, I'll hold Coleman.  Just curious what your thoughts are.  Or, what you would advise, going forward.

Also, I currently have Kittle in my lineup at TE, with Brate on my bench.  But, being it's MNF, it get's a bit tricky.  Any insight on Kittle's playing status?

Thanks again for all your help.  Is greatly appreciated.

play kittle, im afraid freeman is a boom/bust rb2/flex going forward

 

[ChamoflagedChameleon]

Bloom, I had to play Shep in a WR spot Thur due to the unknown of Cooks and Kupp playing. Now that they are which one would you play over the other in a flex? I liked Cooks cause of the coverage Kupp will get, but now with the snow I’d like your opinion please! 

for clarity-  PPR

QB: Winston, WR: Evans/(played Shep), RB: Gordon/Lindsay, TE: Njoku

 

[Saboo]

Hey Sig!

I need 2 out of these 3...Josh Gordon, Keke Coutee + Quincy Enunwa.

Thanks in advance!!!

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

I’ve been playing fantasy football for over 15 years and I didn’t start winning consistently until I started following your work. Your insight from so many different perspectives is outstanding. Please keep up the wonderful work you offer to each and every one of us. 

I dropped Lutz and picked up Winston to block my opponent from using him this week with the intentions of dropping him right before kickoff to pickup a Kicker. I have Brady, do I drop Winston, R.Jones (I’m weak at RB) or Fitzgerald (im strong at WR)? 

Also need upside plays, who would you start in PPR:

RB- Morris, Bibbs or Ito

Flex- Davis or J.Gordon

Thanks Sig

fitz

bibbs

gordon

 

[silentmark]

Standard scoring, need a WR3

Crabtree BAL@TEN or Sanu ATL vs TBB

 

[Stingdiddy]

Hi Sig,

Crowell or Chris Carson? Non PPR. Please let me know. Thank you.

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

WDIS: 2 RB (0.5ppr) / 3 WR (0.5ppr) / 1 TE (1.0 ppr) / 2 Flex RB/WR/TE

Already started Smallwood & OBJ (both disappointment)...need to rescue my week  (lost Ajayi & Kamara on bye) 

RB: McCoy @ Hou   OR  R Freeman vs LAR   OR   R Jones @ ATL  OR K Juszczyk @ GB 

WR: Jo Brown @ Tenn   OR   K Cole @ Dal   OR  B Cooks @ Den   OR    W Fuller vs Buf   OR   E Sanders vs LAR

TE: A Hooper vs TB   OR  V McDonald @ Cin

 Current Lineup: McCoy, B Cooks, Fuller, Sanders, Hooper & McDonald

The TE full 1.0 PPR & bonus at 50 rec yrd makes them valuable.

I don't trust McCoy vs Hou top tier Run Def. 

I am just looking for a sanity check. 

im afraid mccoy is still the best play

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

#1. Flex (choose 1): Edelman, Sanders, Ridley, Shady

#2. RB's on my roster: Elliott, CMC, Shady, and Alf Morris. Drop Alf Morris for Rod Smith?

#3. Evan Engram: any faith in him when he returns? Sure, in theory he should help the Giants offense but Engram being out isn't why Eli is inept.

#4. Which 2 of these receivers would you roster if all we’re available? Kirk, Sutton, Tre Smith, Callaway 

Cheers.

no on 2

yes some faith

Hi sig,

Loaded at WR but missing the right play each week.  OBJ and Keenan frustrating.   Need to find a way to get Babytron in line up each and every week?

Would you seek trade...and if so...How would you value those 6 WRs moving forward....which guys you look to trade and what kind of package would you look for in return?

.5ppr

qb-2wr-2rb-TE-flex

mahomes

obj golladay Cooks Keenan TY trequan

DJ AP Aaron Jones Derrick Henry Tarik Cohen

gronk

whichever one you can trade to upgrade your RB2 to another RB1 if beckham, so be it

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig,

Where would you rank OJ Howard ROS? He was on a roll before he got hurt, and the TE position in season long fantasy is a blood bath. Thanks

boom/bust streamer

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Hey Sig. Thanks for this. 

I need to drop two of these RBs in standard, taking a ROS perspective. Breida, Morris, Clement, Ronald Jones. These are my bye/bench backs (starters are Gordon, McCaffery and DJ).

jones and morris
