Any update on Lamar Miller? If he is banged up and it's well known blue sucks what are the chances Ervin gets a shot?

Coradelle and JJ Nelson
Will they out perform ARob?

The shot went to Blue last week. Pretty confident he's still ahead of Ervin in the pecking order.

Just don't get confused and accidentally drop Devonta
ETA: I still remember the good ol' days where all we had to worry about was picking up the right Adrian Peterson and Steve Smith. At least they spelled their names the same way.

Not much out there. Grabbed Patterson to give possible flex option next couple weeks with loads of byes.
One thing to keep in mind about his Week 7 stats if didn't watch the game. 5 of his 7 catches came on the final inconsequential garbage time drive. Great if you think you can rely on that happening every week. The positive is they are involving him on offense and designing plays for him again.

Strictly speculating here. Mac said to expect changes in the offense coming out of the bye. I would take a flier on Perkins. He can't be worse than what they are trotting out there now.

First I want to say kudos for the way Mike Zimmerman handled that situation and to CP for responding positively to the challenge. He has worked hard in 2016 to become a better route runner, shown a willingness to do whatever it takes to get more snaps (gunner on PR), and seems to have matured.
All that said, don't they pretty much use like they always have, i.e., jet sweeps and bubble screens? Hopefully one of the numerous Vikes homers can chime in here to confirm or correct.

Ebron was back at practice today and might be on track to return this week. I may add him as a higher upside TE2 than what I am carrying.
BobbyLayne
Footballguy
When healthy he has consistently put up solid numbers this year. When he's been hurt the other TEs are strictly the sixth O-lineman.

With McKinnon limited I'm hoping CP gets more of a Ty Montgomery role this week. Also hope to see he get the same CB Adams got last week

Agree that it's a good possibility. Making room is the hard part. Dixon vs. Perkins? Thoughts on relative upside? Both run games have been fairly unproductive, and both QBs need someone who knows protection as well

FYI Tampa is shopping for a veteran WR per the Twitters. Might take the shine off Russel Shepard as an add. Who knows.

More depth than a comment on Shepard. They're waiting for Murphy to come back and Shorts might not be healthy, weird that he didn't see a target with all those snaps last week. I don't see a way that a Week 8 FA WR takes snaps from any WR excepting injury.
Buck Bradcanon
Footballguy
Great points. Shepard should be good for next week or two regardless. I was thinking more along the lines of if they get a bigger fish via trade that it would impact rest of season outlook for Shepard.
btemp
Footballguy
This is definitely true. Just don't see that happening though especially when they're dangling Banks/Verner who won't net much in a trade.

I picked up Quick in a deep league with large rosters. Like the direction he is trending.SameSongNDance said:The wire looks like #### this week.Some things I'm seeing however..
Quick has seen his snaps rise for 5 consecutive weeks and saw a season high 9 targets last week. Kendricks has also been trending similarly. I still don't really want a part of the team but it's probably worth monitoring.
Wallace's snaps/targets have essentially risen every week. If Smith's injury keeps him out longer/he's finished it may be worth targeting Wallace during his bye. Perriman and Aiken pretty much split work behind him.
Hunter played on 93% of BUF's snaps last week but only saw 4 targets.
Lafell plays on essentially all of the snaps and sees a ton of RZ targets but his targets are highly volatile. He should prob be owned though.
This is an aside, sell Tate before Riddick/Ebron come back. Do it now.
He's probably not available but Doyle played on 93% of the snaps, saw 10 targets and gets a lot of RZ looks. Also, Rogers, who likely is available, isn't a factor (only 3 targets).
Theilen played on 88% of the snaps even with Diggs back (80%). Patterson's snaps also remained constant (~65%) with Diggs back and he even out targeted both of them with 7 targets (Diggs and Theilen had 5). If I had to take a shot on one it'd probably be with Patterson but it seems like a toss up.
Hogan has been worse with Brady back (snaps/targets took a dive). How?
PHI is a complete and utter #### show as it pertains to fantasy.
Shepard played on 36% of the snaps, Shorts actually played on 41%. I mentioned Shepard as someone to watch in the VJax thread but he's going to need to see more of the field to be a consistent option. Given his performance though, it's quite possible.

He's been mentioned a couple times in here but I think it's time to take J.J. Nelson seriously, at least as a streamer this week. Jaron Brown is done for the season, Floyd missed practice today due to a hamstring injury and regular Brown is likely still less than 100%
Nelson saw 80% of the snaps and 7 targets last week.
CAR's performance vs. WRs has been skewed by Julio's 300 yard day but the opportunity looks like it's going to be there for Nelson regardless this week.

Definitely keeping an eye on Brown and Floyd practice reports.
If either one of them are out I may pick up Nelson. Only other option is either Tyrell Williams or Meredith. Horrible matchups. Looking for last second fliers.

Arizona Cardinals WR John Brown (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Oct. 27.
dunno if the 2 are related but will be slowed by this too

Yup. The leg pain is caused by the sickle-cell trait. Initially, it was thought to be a hamstring issue.
Frank Black

Captain Hook

Well first his legs have to survive a cross country flight and then assuming he is playing on Sunday we have to hope he gets enough snaps to be relevant - don't forget that strenuous effort also affect his body due to the sc trait.

IF anyone reallys needs to find a dart at TE this week because of injuries (or Q - Reed/Davis) or Byes, I think Ifeanyi Momah, AZ is a nice, available play - he is 6'7" with an even larger wingspan and runs like a receiver (played there previously) plus Fells is dinged. He made a couple of nice plays in the Seattle game and has Palmer's confidence now.

This did occur to me, that matchup seems so sweet. And Minny will be angry after their first loss. Turnovers from Cutler leading to opportunities... seems like a good idea.

Agree. I've almost picked him up a few time but haven't pulled the trigger.SaintsInDome2006 said:
The guy should be owned in 12 team and up leagues
Bad matchup for a one-week fill-in. I'd have to both be desperate and have bench space available at near-zero cost to go this route.

as i looked around, many leagues do not have Fiedorowicz rostered, may not be a dart throw, but check your leagueCaptain Hook said:

If you are looking WW for a TE and Firodwizscz is available, he is a must start. Love him in daily too. Lions passing D is awful and TEs have been feasting on them.as i looked around, many leagues do not have Fiedorowicz rostered, may not be a dart throw, but check your league

Already rostered CJ several weeks ago and have him in my lineup this week - couldn't ask for a better situation than home vs the Lions, who are terrible against TEsas i looked around, many leagues do not have Fiedorowicz rostered, may not be a dart throw, but check your league

Aren't Fiedorowicz streamers worried about Osweiler's increasingly erratic play? Maybe with Lamar Miller ailing, though, CJ makes for an even safer bet to siphon targets.
Captain Hook
Footballguy
didn't look up the number but pretty sure Osweiler and the team better at home AND they are playing the Lions

if brock can complete any passes, especially under pressure, he looks for CJ

I thought the cat was already out of the bag, especially for 12 or 14 team leagues. Maybe more so for dynasty than redraft, but that is changing as well.as i looked around, many leagues do not have Fiedorowicz rostered, may not be a dart throw, but check your league

For those in need after losing CJA this week, Rob Kelley presents a nice 1 week bandaid with Matt Jones officially sitting.

If Rob Kelley is still on your wire on Saturday... something something join your league.
