LOL just posted in the Fat Rob thread that I might just be one of those GMs who puts Perine back on the wire for a guy who looks (based on preseason and Game 1 opportunity and performance) like he'll consistently contribute and have a role, like Cohen, Kupp, and maybe Golladay, who I like in that order.From the hot takes department....Kerwyn Williams.

Maybe - depends on how adept Williams is in the passing game.What about Andre Ellington if D Johnson misses time?

James Jones (Big Ben loves his big TEs) and Hooper are targets for TE streamers or platooners.
Jesse James, my bad. Though the commentary might have given you a bit of a clue, no?Who?
Interested in this -- Javorius was somewhat as efficient as West (21 for 71 vs 19 for 80) and BAL seems to have no problem platooning backs as we saw last year. West is good enough to retain his value, but Allen looks intriguing. How are his hands?Not mentioned above; Buck Allen gets a boost with Woodhead hamstring and Jags WR's shuffled with Allen Robinson injury.

was just such a weird 'typo' so had to ask.Jesse James, my bad. Though the commentary might have given you a bit of a clue, no?
Allen has great hands, good pass catcher who has not looked good between the tackles in the past. Seems like he has improved that aspect so he could have some value.Interested in this -- Javorius was somewhat as efficient as West (21 for 71 vs 19 for 80) and BAL seems to have no problem platooning backs as we saw last year.

LOL, nice. I would argue that Sandra Bullock's ex is more of a sociopath than the James-Younger gang leader.Jesse James, Jim Jones.
They're both sociopaths - close enough.
Think he got drafted in quite a few leagues? In the Brate-Ebron tier for backups, guy looks like a decent route runner, good agility for a big man and he's a hand catcher. I'd take him over James 8 days a week.James Jones (Big Ben loves his big TEs) and Hooper are targets for TE streamers or platooners.
Easily Cohen for me. Carson will still have to contend with Rawls and Prosise even if Lacy is put out to pasture. Williams is a short term play at best and may be part of an RBBC regardless.Seems like Carson, Cohen, and Williams are the RBS. Any of them worth burning number one ww order on?
Cohen, as he'll have a role. Carson is intriguing, but how this backfield plays out is still up in the air, IMHO. Williams is definitely worth a look for DJ owners, but with the official word (so far) being a sprained wrist, not sure this wouldn't ens up being a waste of a wire move for those who don't own DJ.Seems like Carson, Cohen, and Williams are the RBS. Any of them worth burning number one ww order on?

Golladay, seems he is the WR to pick up, especially with Tates digit messed up.,Are any of these guys worth losing a high waiver wire position for?
Hmm. Ok. He looked crazy good out there. Not sure if I want to burn it on him thoughEasily Cohen for me. Carson will still have to contend with Rawls and Prosise even if Lacy is put out to pasture. Williams is a short term play at best and may be part of an RBBC regardless.
Keep in mind though that the Bears are almost completely bereft of WR talent and may lean on Cohen in the passing game. Could be gold in PPR leagues.Hmm. Ok. He looked crazy good out there. Not sure if I want to burn it on him though
Good pointKeep in mind though that the Bears are almost completely bereft of WR talent and may lean on Cohen in the passing game. Could be gold in PPR leagues.
agreed. he looks the part.Chris Carson - He was on the field a lot. Eddie Lacy is all done and Carson seems more dynamic than the always injured Thomas Rawls. Carson had a 6.5 ypc compared to Lacy’s 0.3 ypc.
Westbrook is on IR...Some deep League guys...
Alex Smith if you need a QB (vs. PHI)
Allen Hurns/Dede Westbrook if you need a WR (ARob15 probably out for year)
Buck Allen at RB if Woodhead misses significant time.
Will Tye/Zach Miller as big pass catching TE targets of horrible teams with poor QBs

No no no, he is not fools gold....If you have the opportunity to pick this kid up, do it....Good point
Wonder if they pull Jon Williams off the practice squad after a few weeks...Allen has great hands, good pass catcher who has not looked good between the tackles in the past. Seems like he has improved that aspect so he could have some value.
Rawls coming back scares me. Still have prosise and prob will give Lacy another chance. The oline looked like garbage and the entire offense looked dysfunctional. Carsons an easy pass with these other options available I thinkChris Carson - He was on the field a lot. Eddie Lacy is all done and Carson seems more dynamic than the always injured Thomas Rawls. Carson had a 6.5 ypc compared to Lacy’s 0.3 ypc.
Tate came back in; I don't think a left ring finger injury is going to keep him out (though obviously it's gonna make low throw more difficult.) Also, Galladay & Tate have different route trees; he's more of an outside guy, if Golden misses time it means more snaps for Abbrederis or TJ Jones in the slot. Which is a pretty awful scenario if you're a Lions fan. They (& Galladay) will be much more effective with both Galladay & Tate on the field at the same time.Mavis said:Golladay, seems he is the WR to pick up, especially with Tates digit messed up.,jon_mx said:Are any of these guys worth losing a high waiver wire position for?
Williams is on Denver's ps. (Alex Collins?)Black said:Wonder if they pull Jon Williams off the practice squad after a few weeks...
NOPE. He will be fixture in the Bears Offense the entire year.ONLY thing I worry abt a little ,is what happens when B Cunningham comes back. Do they split the rb pass catching role behind Howard? I think that Cohen is too dynamic to keep him off the field.He's tiny(5 7') which makes it hard for opposing defenses to spot him on the field....I'm buying in on Cohen with the bears being depleted at WR and needing play makers bad.. I'm bidding at least 30% of my budget on him. I hope I get him. He could end up with 75-90 catches this year.plus he will still be getting several carries a game,plus 7-8 TD's isn't out of the question....Howard did nothing special sure he got a TD,but he also is one of the worst receiving backs in the game,and dropped the game winning TD. Cohen will outscore Howard in ppr this year.. I'd rather have Cohen than Howard on my team right now.Tanner9919 said:agreed. he looks the part.
I'll add:
IF available, obvious ones are Corey Davis, Coleman ( Cle) , Kupp, Alex Smith
Given what J. Howard did, I would think that Cohen is this weeks WW fool's gold pickup of the year..
I've been anti-Mixon all preseason,and that continues today. Gio looked spectacular. Hill looked good. but neither is worth a long term investment if the red rooster keeps throwing 4 picks
No, absolutely notQB woes......
Would you burn a high WW on Alex Smith? (Currently have Eli and Wentz)
Arodin said:Westbrook is on IR...
They IR'd him? WTF he was playing a few weeks go and they said his injury was minor then... ugh.bicycle_seat_sniffer said:See Westbrook is on ir
I wouldn't. Eli and Wentz will still be OK. If you can get Smith without burning a high WW priority you can look at that but by the end of the season I think Eli and Wentz will both score more points than Smith.QB woes......
