Week 8 Questions for Bloom (1 Viewer)

Bloom,

I was extremely lucky to pick up not only Ajayi, but Booker as well. I have Bell and Murray as my starters and I want to use my windfall to really improve my team in a PPR league. Who do I sell high on, Booker or Ajayi?

 
Hi Bloom,

12 team, standard, non-PPR:

1.) Cam or Jameis

2.) Need 2: Jeremy Hill, Rob Kelley, Don Jackson, J-Stew, Peyton Barber

Thanks,

Hi Sig-

Question regarding late season TE upside in PPR.

My regular starter has been Pitta, who I would characterize as high floor, low ceiling. I would like to also have some higher ceiling TEs for the late season stretch. Three options available to me are Brate, Ertz and Fiedorowicz. 

How would you rank those three on upside for the second half of the season?

Thanks!

Hey Sig,

In a 0.5 PPR league who should I start as my Flex?

Michael Floyd, Quincy Enunwa, Jerick Mckinnon, Hunter Henry, Brandon Lafell

Thanks!

Feels weird to even ask but with injuries and bye weeks here we are :

I'm starting gillislee with McCoy injured but need a flex between McCoy, Jamaal charles (easy if he were healthy), Don Jackson, Russell shepard and Jalin marshall.  Ppr. 

Fwiw, the team is 14-0 with double headers but this week's matchups are tough. 

Eta: charles is out, so not him.

Hey Sig,

First Lineup, PPR, starters in Bold...thinking about doubling down on the Texans WR in hopes of a bounce back week against Detroit. Is that too crazy?

QB: Wilson, Stafford

RB: Bell, C-Mike, McKinnon, Hyde

WR: Nuke, Fuller, Tyrell Williams, Mike Thomas

TE:  Graham, Eifert

Thanks,

-Eric

 
Hey Sig,

2nd Lineup, PPR, starters in Bold...looking at flexing Powell, Lockett, or Rob Kelly if Matt Jones can't go early Sunday Morning (need 2 out of 3), more so due to bye week and lack of options in this 14-team league.

QB: Brees,

RB: Zeke, Gore, Powell, Kelly, Morris, Dixon

WR: Alshon, Mike Thomas, Lockett (get return yards and yardage bonus pts for hitting 150 return yards), Landry, Patterson

TE:  Bennett, Vernon

Agree?...I'd like to go Powell vs Cleveland, is he still nursing a turf toe?

Thanks,

-Eric

Two questions for you this week -

1.  Alex Smith or Brock Osweiler in a standard scoring league - 1 point per 20 yards passing, and 4 points per passing TD, 6 points per rushing TD. 

2.  Isiah Crowell or Alshon Jeffery in Flex - non-PPR league.

Thanks!

 
Need 1 WR + 1 FLEX
1 pt PPR league


T.Montgomery (WR + RB eligible in my league, I plan on starting S. Ware and D.Booker at RB this week).
B.Cooks
R.Cobb

Initially, I'd be against starting both Montgomery and Cobb since they're on the same team, however if Montgomery is getting time at RB too, this changes things. Cooks, can be beastly, but he's up against the stingy Seahawks D.

Thoughts?

Hello Sigmund. 

Need to pick two of the following, one for a WR slot, one for Flex. Non PPR 

Gillislee/Crowell/Montgomery/Marvin Jones

Thanks in advance Sir. 

 
Howdy Sig,

(FPC,PPR)

Bye week blues at RB.  Must choose one of the following:

R. Kelley - Passes eyeball test, but so does Mack Brown, and he was just activated

CJ Prosise - SEA just cut Spiller, not sure of role, or health of Wilson

Dwayne Washington - "healthy", but Riddick returning

Carey, Ward, Hillman all still on Waiver Wire

And...

Concussion Protocol blues

Reed - London Game, one report indicated that although traveling, we won't see him until after bye.  Davis Groin?

Henry - Did well against DEN first meeting but now they will be more prepared and he'll be "fighting" cobwebs

Swoope - Desperation time and Yeah, FA's were thin at TE.

One other...

Flex - Tyrell Williams(shutdown first meeting, dinged, vs. DEN) or Cordarelle Patterson(concussion?, Monday game)

TIA

TOB

 
Hi Sig, two questions.

1 Start 1 QB.  pt per 20 yds passing, 5 pts per TD

Brees vs SEA

Ryan vs GB

2 - half PPR, start Riddick or James White?

Thanks.

 
Hope all is well, Sig!

Help me pick 3 out of 4 to start (0.5 PPR): 

     J. Nelson @ ATL

     Ty Montgomery @ ATL (ughh...no RB eliglibity at Yahoo)

     Marvin Jones @ HOU

     A. Jeffery vs. MIN

Also, would you drop W. Smallwood or Don Jackson or neither for Darren McFadden, on the chance that he'll get traded to team which provides him value before the trade deadline? 

Thanks as always, 

 
PPR league.

Need a what the heck flex.

* Tyrell Williams @DEN -- Horrible matchup, but Rivers is targeting him like he's a #1.

* C. Meredith vs MN -- Another horrible matchup. No clue if Cutler will target like Hoyer did.

* JJ Nelsen @CAR -- Floyd limited. Brown questionable but expected to play. Could get deep.

* R. Woods vs NE -- Had 7-89 in previous matchup. Goodwin out. May have to play catchup.

* A. Thielen @CHI -- Diggs banged up still? CPatt concussion. Maybe more targets.

* A. Humphries / R. Sheppard vs OAK -- Great matchup. Have no idea who the #2 is here.

Which one?

Thanks.

Thanks for your time & advice, Sig!

0.5 PPR redraft. Lost CJA. Other RBs are David Johnson, Hill, Duke, Quizz, Gillislee, Barber.

Trade Hill for Martin to get monopoly on Tampa backfield? 

Could trade Crabtree (other WRs are Green, Hilton, ARob, Coates) instead of Hill.

Thx Bloom!

My season is in peril.  Keeper league and if I don't win it's fire sale time!

Superflex PPR and need my QB and Superflex.   Cousins, Alex Smith and Crabtree.  

 
Siggy Smalls!!!

Standard pick 1 - Ty Montgomery, golden Tate, gillislee, mark ingram or Moncrief

.5ppr pick 2 - Gio, Hill or rob Kelly 

Feeling Carr or Cam this week?

 
Hold or Trade D. Williams?

He's banged up, on bye, and his value is a bit lower as long as Big Ben is out.

I also have considerable RB depth:

* Zeke, S. Ware, J. Rodgers, Gio, J. Hill, J. Howard

Also, I really need a solid TE backup. J. Reed has been killing me and has a bye next week. I could trade D. Angelo for C. Fleener who faces SF next week and could act as solid insurance the rest of the season.

Hold D. Angelo or get something in return to fill gaps?

Thanks

 
Trade non ppr   7-2 so far

bell for Rodgers, cooks, booker

roster

cam, rivers, ware, booker, Rodgers, bibbs, Damien Williams, barber, Perkins, Julio, Montgomery, tyrell Williams, cooks, Bennett, Ladarius green

wanted to see if could give tyrell instead of cooks. Or try to get cooper back with bell

 
Global long term team mgm question here Bloom.

I am 6 and 1 In a high stakes 12 team PPR redraft where I start 1qb,2rb,3wr,1te,1flex. Thanks to a zero RB draft strategy (and a few savy FAB pickups/trades) I am stacked at WR. I have Brown, Evans, Hopkins, Marshall, Tyrell Williams, Moncrief and Edelman. Currently my go to RB's are Michael/Rawls, Crowell and Quiz. I always roster a few high upside handcuff RB's and the positions volatility has treated right this year.

I have the opportunity to trade Marshall for Ware OR Booker. My question is do I stand pat and continue to rely on RB volatility OR trade Marshall for Ware or Booker? If the answer is "trade" which guy (Ware or Booker) do you like better ROS?

Thanks so very much!

Hi Bloom,

Need to pick 2 WRs & 1 flex for PPR this week.

WRs are Moncrief, Ty Williams & Ty Montgomery.

I can also stick Gillislee in flex or pick up Beasley

As of now, I have Williams & Montgomery in at WR & Moncrief at flex. Would you change anything? TIA :)

Looking ahead to Week 9 I see my M. Stafford has a matchup @MN. Ugh. There's no way starting him against that D is a good idea. Also, Stafford has a bye in week 10. Time to plan ahead.

Looking ahead to pick up somebody now so I don't have to deal with waivers:

* T. Siemien @OAK -- Great matchup. Should be able to move the ball. Added bonus: Faces @NO week 10 when Stafford has a bye.

* M. Mariota @SD -- Mariota on fire. May have to keep up with Rivers. Week 10 matchup vs GB could be similar.

* S. Bradford vs DET -- Good matchup, but could just pound. Week 10 @Wash.

* J. Flacco vs PIT -- Decent matchup, but he keeps laying eggs. 

* C. Kaepernick vs NO -- Total what the heck QB. Great matchup. Numbers could be there. 

Who is best to fill in for Stafford week 9 (and maybe 10)?

Thanks

 
BLOOM!

Any guesses on this year's musical costume in Vegas? Bowie? Purple Rain? Thriller, finally? Probably all too obvious.

Do you want Lewis, DHenry or Powell ROS, both PPR and standard?

Also, today in standard, Doyle or Bennett?

Thanks as always and good luck!

Morning Sig

Scoring is kinda messy- 5 points for each 15 carries, 5 recepts, or 100 yards rush/recieve. 6 for each td.

RB: Need 1 from Thompson, Kelley, K.Davis

WR: Need 2 from Montgomery (wr eligible only), Adams, Cobb, Theilen, or Fuller

One caveat with the rb is that if i start Kelley or Thompson- their points will carry over to next week while they are on the bye. I am leaning towards Thompson, Monty and Cobb, but having doubts.

 
Hi Sig! Standard scoring with 5 point bonus for 100 yards.

gio, Jeffrey, micheal Thomas: pick 2

Also, Fleener or Barnage?

As always, thanks!

Thanks as always Sig --

Non ppr --

Need a high ceiling week  --   playing Dez and Moncrief at WR (not too comfy there)  and Eifert at TE (and there too) --

1) Have John Brown slated for flex.  OR play Boldin or go get Fiedorowicz or Crowder off waivers

2) My RB's are: Ware, Charles, Rawls, Dwayne Wash, D. Henry  --  are JC and Rawls both holds ? 

 
12 team standard non-PPR league (6 pts per passing td)

  • Prescott
  • Fitzpatrick
Need 2 WR

  • Cooper
  • Cobb
  • Diggs
Need 1 RB

  • Chris Thompson
  • Gillislee

As always thanks Bloom

 
Bloom - Need to start 2 of the following in PPR :

Gore

Gordon

Hill

Asiata

I'm considering Gore and Gordon, but Asiata on MNF looks very appealing now. I know Gordon ran well 2 weeks ago at home but Denver scares me. As always, thanks 

 
Need some help with standard league,

need 2 rb,2 wr and a flex

Cmike, Lamar Miller, devonte booker

cooks, Marvin jones, micheal Thomas, pryor

thanks!!!

 
trade offer I can't figure out. Hoping you can help. 12 team non ppr dynasty

I give Alshon

I receive Sterling Shepherd, Langford, Martellus Bennett

im competing this year. I own Howard and have solid WRs in Evans, Alshon, M. Thomas, Fitz, Baldwin and Maclin. Also have Kelce at TE. 

I like Shepard's upside and Bennett is nice insurance for Kelce, but even though Alshon has under performed I still think he improves my roster this year and next. 

Your thoughts? Yay or nay? 

 
Let's see if Bloom gets to mine this week:

Duke or Crowell vs Jets at RB.

Then, Barnidge, John Brown or the other Clev. rb at flex.
