WR Puka Nacua LAR (3 Viewers)

[ohio#1eaglesfan]

I think a lot of you are being a little premature here guys. He had 1 good game. Anyone remember Travis Fulgham? He had a 10 reception game his first game with the eagles then disappeared. Not saying that will happen but I went Kyren Williams this week.

Puka NewKupp

Fine, as long as you don't get lazy and shorten it to PuKupp.

Tua girls one Kupp?

New team name idea: Puka’s, one Kupp.

I once named a team 2 Gurleys 1 Kupp

 

[The General]

Got him last night for 24% (I have Kupp so wanted to get him).

Next bid was 16%

Lol. If Pukachu blows up again this weekend against the Niners, we should all change our team names to:

Two Girls One PuKupp.

 

[(HULK)]

i go him for 15%. It wasn't a serious bid, I just didn't want someone else to get him for 5-10%. If someone paid 20%, I would have been happy to let him go. But, I don't think anyone else in my league bid.

For reference, Gus Edwards went for 20%, Zay Flowers for 15%, Josh Kelly for 10%.

This seems crazy, Flowers for 15 and no bids on Puka?

Yeah me personally I woulda bid more on flowers than Puka if given the chance.

I would've too.

Although there, you've got Andrews coming back sooner.

Team name? If Puka goes off against the Niners I may ask the wife to name a child after him.

Fulgham was like a wr2 for 5 straight weeks

Party!

Got him tonight for $51. 14 team, 3 WR and a flex.

 

[skinsrule05]

Who is actually starting him against the 49ers?

I’m starting him over Elijah Moore

 

[Godsbrother]

Just got him for $21. Now does he start over Aiyuk, Lockett, E. Moore, or Gabe Davis as my 3rd WR?

Being a Steelers fan of course I watched the 49ers dismantle the Steelers offense. As great as they were, some the Steelers undoing was due to Kenny Pickett's inaccuracy.

 

[Smack Tripper]

16 team 1000 budget league last night

Went for the full stack.

We were all shocked, owner may have been tilting losing rodgers though. And don't ask me how one leads to another, my first thought was he added an extra 0 to a 100 dollar bid

 

[Sir Psycho]

Who is actually starting him against the 49ers?

Over A. Cooper in one league and over Waddle in another.

Nacua is my best rated WR this week and #21 on my FBG weekly rankings.

 

[Loipz]

Interesting, I put Puka on the block and got offered JT for him and Jaylen Warren. Guy got JT in the 6th and has been trying to move him. Guy also loves Jaylen and Puka. I smash accepted

I am starting him over Moore and I would over Davis too. Somebody posted above how Kupp has performed against San Fran. I'm not saying he is Kupp but it does seem like Stafford has been able to move the ball.

I don’t think I could bench Aiyuk after last game.

I have seen a wide range of how people perceive JT. I'm in the camp that doesn't think he is going to play at all or very minimal. But if you feel like he is going to play somewhere this is a good deal for you.

 

[taylormeetstheismann]

Nacua is my best rated WR this week and #21 on my FBG weekly rankings.

Can you explain why?

Nacua is projected at 12.83 points from FBG and that’s higher than any other of my marginal WRs including Lockett #30, Samuels #43 and Watson #92.

Yeah I’m thin at rb in this league so it was worth the gamble. I agree there’s no telling how it ends up shaking out. Hopefully it pays off. I’ll still have Puka in a few leagues to enjoy.

I hope he plays for the Colts. I don’t know the performance norms when a veteran RB moves to another team but I’d rather see JT rushing for a team where he’s familiar with the playbook.

Had to Amazon prime a new one. Thank god for same day shipping

 

[titusbramble]

Who is rolling Puka out this week?

Only have him in two leagues - one dynasty where I drafted him, not starting over ARSB/Olave/Flowers, the other I'm contemplating flexing over Herbert

think no brainer flex over Herbert. that backfield is a mess.

 

[Rubi]

Fella in one of my leagues just spent 70% of his free agent money on Puka.
Wise decision?

Every redraft league of mine he was available he went for over 60%.

I got him in the one dynasty league I have him and went over 50%, in large part because I'm a Kupp owner in that league and to a lesser extent just lost Diontae for a bit

Is it wise? I feel good on my dynasty pickup but if Kupp is able to return to play relatively soon it seems like a lot to me in redraft.

 

[menobrown]

Some FFPC waiver stats which utilized $1,000 FAAB:

Average winning bid in Main Events was $726, low was $321, high was $982. He only went for less then $400 in one of the 66 leagues he was available, only less then $500 in 3 of them.

Average winning bid in the Fantasy Pro's contest was much lower, $590, with a low bid of $222 and a max bid of all.

Average winning bid in dynasty was $627, low of $168(that's one sleepy league), high of $999.

 

[dmac37]

Pretty happy, got him for 37% and the next bid was 35%, at one stage I was going to bid over 50%. This league I need to start him over Hollywood with Diontae out, other league flex between him, Elijah, and Addison.

 

[SofaCoach]

Trying to decide whether to start him over Garrett Wilson and Dotson. Leaning Puka...

 

[packdog]

I went with 50- 55% on bids for him and got him in all cept one. Some needed that much and some it was double the next highest. Already had him on a few as well. Might be a bit high if he's a rental but it also could be a steal if he remains the top option cause kupp is out all year. Who knows what is going on with kupp but it does seem like he is at high risk of aggravating his injury if/when he comes back. I'll gamble on puka all that considered

 

[kupcho1]

Over whom?

Pickens

 

[Ray_T]

Just traded him for Keenan Allen and a couple of mid rounders in our keeper league.

Couldn't pass on cashing in.

Hoping the best for him!

You got Keenan Allen and draft picks? wow, thats an overpay if I ever saw one.
I do think he will be good, but this is over the top.

No, I got Allen for Puka PLUS two mid-rounders ('24 and '25)

Sorry if I got misunderstood.

I'm in win-now mode and the other owner is building towards the future.

I'll take Keenan Allen 10 years sample over that Week 1 show Nacua gave us, anytime.

I think you still got good value. well done.

 

[Gally]

Got him for 44%. I wasn't expecting to get him but happy I did.

ETA: 2nd place was 40%

 

[Pietaster2]

Must have felt great to have snagged him with such a narrow margin. No buyer's regret of overspending there. Why does this never happen to me? I always bid double my opponents.

No that happened with Kyren Williams. I spent 40% (really didn't expect to get both guys) and the next closest was 10%

 

[SayWhat?]

Won the bidding war with a clearly savvy bid of 46% to my opponents 44% and 21%.

 

[da_budman]

I won with a bid of 26 dollars out of 200. I was baffled that he didnt go for significantly more. I guess everybody assumed Kupp will be back week 6. As a Kupp owner I am over the moon getting this lucky.

I would be very surprised if kupp is back by week 6 and especially back at full force

You don’t fly across the country to see a specialist when you live in LA unless you really didn’t like what you heard

Shut The Front Door!
Guess it's the best 20th round pick I ever made.

 

[SyNdi]

I used $999 of my $1000 for Puka and still didnt get him

 

[cantstop1999]

FFPC , I bid 536, I lost to 537 , lol really, 1000 budget

 

[SayWhat?]

I used $999 of my $1000 for Puka and still didnt get him

Well if you’re going to go as far as $999, why try to save the $1? All that $1 does is give you priority over a single $0 bid down the road, no?

I needed the doller to get a kicker down the road for my kickers bye. Some guy/girl used literally All their FAAB on Kelley. I thought i was the crazy one

 

[metoo]

Why spend all that money (assuming you did) if you aren't gonna play him?

I have him on 2 rosters without a bid, and I'm starting him at one of my flex positions. Any receiver who gets 15 targets goes into my lineup the next week.

If he lays an egg he lays an egg. I'd rather feel dumb for starting him in that circumstance than feel dumb leaving a 20+ point game on my bench. Again.

Yea but where it gets difficult is do you start him against SF ?

over Zay Flowers who looked electric and the #1 in Baltimore?

or over DJ Moore who is supposed to be huge this year, but had a tough corner covering him and bad play calling week 1?
if he sa
This is a good problem to have, but still

Dont spend a ton of money on him if you arent going to use him this week. he may only have two more weeks of relevance left and if he does poorly vs SF youre not using him next week either. If you got him on waivers or for cheap then feel free to sit.

He's currently better than Kupp. Puka is a future HOF. I put my entre faab on him.
