No matter what I do, there is no way I make the right decision here lmao

Can you let us know which decision you make then? Thanks

Yes please.

Was just talking to a buddy who was like "One of us will start him and one of us won't and we'll both be wrong" lol

I’m starting him. Other option is Flowers who is gone too.

Has anyone checked out the Vikings FF points allowed at WR for several weeks now?
What are we even discussing here?

If he's on your team and you can't start him vs the 32nd ranked Defense vs Wide Receivers than you should just cut him or trade him quickly and relieve yourself of this trauma

Are we seeing anything credible about snap count being limited or not? JSN is my weakest link I’d have to bench and if DK is out hate to get a weak performance tonight.

FBG has him ranked as the #84 WR, around 5 points.

Wow

FBG has him ranked as the #84 WR, around 5 points.

Wow

Yeah that's what has me so confused. Maybe some experts have him at 0 and still didn't update the rankings?

That's what I'm thinking. All the positive news about him playing has happened in the last hour or two.

 

[heckmanm]

May need to play him. Other WRs are Downs, Nuk, Olave, Polk and Wicks, and I need to start at least 2. Lotta Qs on that list

Rankings are for suckers

Whittington playing possibly but not injured and only being on ST or whatever he was last week has people on edge

Why edge? Didn’t realize he qualified.

 

[habsfan]

I wish I had to deliberate over starting this guy.

 

[Capella]

My feel is the Rams are in a must-win situation and if this kid can play he’s gonna play enough important snaps.

I agree

 

[dmac37]

Currently starting him over Ridley and Shepard

 

[GoBirds]

Ok. I’m in.

 

[TDCommish]

He's up to #70 now. It's Maurile's 0.99 pts (my league) that's bringing the average projection down.

 

[JoeJoe88]

I’m keeping him on the bench, but i admittedly have a pretty stacked team in the league I have him in. I’d have to sit either Adams or White.

 

[JohnnyU]

Ok. I’m in.

Even though I agree, I am not responsible for any pooping tonight

 

[JoeJoe88]

Just praying he comes out of this one unscathed lol. That upcoming Lions game has me salivating

Edit: I’m an idiot. That’s Nico’s schedule I was thinking about

 

[Bri]

Whittington playing possibly but not injured and only being on ST or whatever he was last week has people on edge

Why edge? Didn’t realize he qualified.

He was getting 8 or so targets and then questionable but practicing limited and would he play? Welp he's active. So people in FF started him. Then he took zero snaps on offense.

Slacking !

You would have to be mighty thin to start Whittington.

 

[Gold Fox]

I am starting Puka over Trey Palmer.

Way to go out on a limb there.

[dmac37]

LFG!

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

Have him and Kupp. I played Kupp…

 

[Capella]

5.5 points is absolutely more than I expected so far so coming out ahead.

 

[dickey moe]

Lookin good.

 

[boilerdave]

Non-ppr and debating amongst Puka, Jaylen Warren, and Jakobi Meyers. Currently rolling Warren but looking for reasons to start Puka.

Is playing catch with his best friend reason enough?

I’m not starting him but after seeing that video I went to DraftKings and put a couple of schillings on 40+ yards receiving.

Pays in the first quarter.

 

[Capella]

Playing with house money now. Didn’t expect this!

 

[WaltonGoggins]

So glad I started Puka hope everyone did as well

FBG has him ranked as the #84 WR, around 5 points.

What a major whiff.

The rankings come from a collection of experts. I think the issue is that several didn't update when he was cleared which skewed the rankings.

Isn't that their job to update once one of the elite players is activated? It's not as if it was reported right before the game in fact I think they have to declare at around 4 prior to the game.

I hear you. I suppose this issue is best left to FBG brass. I'm only trying to explain my understanding as to why his ranking would be artificially low.

 

[Man In The Box]

Looks like he never missed a drive let alone 5 games or whatever it was.

 

[BlackCrowes]

Minn seems like they really weren't prepared for him to play.

 

[VikingFrog]

Minn seems like they really weren't prepared for him to play.

Maybe they weren’t.

Very few details from practice this week. Stories of optimism and limited snap count.

The Rams definitely did a good job of keeping us all in the dark a bit.

 

[dickey moe]

He looks like he's on a different level out there.

 

[VikingFrog]

He looks like he's on a different level out there.

I got cold feet and didn’t start him ok both leagues. But really excited to have my initially planned WR2 back in action and looking great.

 

[Zow]

Heck, I don't think any of us were. I almost didn't start him.

He's my WR1 where I have him.

 

[Crazy8s__]

Kills me. I traded him and Kelce in week 3 for ……….. drumroll please……. Aiyuk and LaPorta. Ouch

 

[Smack Tripper]

So he had to be getting reps on the sly right? This feels like a circumventing of the injury report

 

[joey]

Wish I wasn’t busy in meetings all afternoon to have some time to REALLY think about this but, at a glance, I thought he was too risky to start him so I kept him on my bench in 2 leagues, to use this as a “prove it” week.

Um, I think he proved it.
