Thurs-Mon is tough this week with NE and TB facing off Thursday. Not sure how I would handle it.Going with the stack against the Pats D in cash for now

Yea I don't like doing the Thursday game but the Pats D is terrible so that's my thinkingThurs-Mon is tough this week with NE and TB facing off Thursday. Not sure how I would handle it.
For sure. If I am thinking right, those two allow the most and 2nd most pts/g to the qb on the season so far.Yea I don't like doing the Thursday game but the Pats D is terrible so that's my thinking
Weird week- looks like most of the worst Ds are going up against the worst Os. My matchup list is littered with teams like Az, Jets, Indy, Cleveland, Balt, SF. Oof.Ugh, not seeing too much I like this week for the main slate.
That is a rough one. Pats have looked so bad it's hard not having Evans in there, but then it's probably him or one of the rbs, and I usually lean rbs in cash myself.Winston

Thoughts?
Is G.Allison still cheap? Might be an option if Adams can't go. Otherwise I kinda like Butler as a possibility on the other side.I think I'm rolling with this except not sure what sub 4K WR to go with

Moncrief, R Anderson, Butler, Golladay, Decker are among my choices at cheap WRs.
I thought about Allison but he is $4400. I had Butler as my second option if I didn't moncrief.Is G.Allison still cheap? Might be an option if Adams can't go. Otherwise I kinda like Butler as a possibility on the other side.
I just got home and I am going to try looking at stuff now. It is a hard week. I like the LU you posted, but the big concern would be that you only have 1 piece of the big total games, and I do wonder if that will come back to bite you a little bit. There is nothing from NE, GB, or Dallas in the LU. Not sure what the answer is since most of the other pieces you would get in those games would be WRs, and usually that is not what I would look at spending $ on, but I wonder if this is a week to break from that and try a different roster construction?I thought about Allison but he is $4400.

What do you think about the rest? Doable? I got 3 good RB and had to go cheap on the WRs to do it but that's almost always if you want 3 good backs

I know it doesn't help you for me to keep saying this, but this is a hard, weird week for the Thurs-Mon. I am stumped. If I try to jam some Pats and Packers in there, the projections don't seem to like it, and if I get something in there that the projections seem to like, there is very little action from those games.Just playing around with it and trying to get GB and NE in the lineup gave me this

I really like Bell and don’t think anyone in my league will pay up for him but Football guys really like Gurley. In order to fit in Cobb and Hogan I had to drop Gurley for Miller
Agree on the tough week. I don’t think I’m playing as many 50/50 as i usually do cause I don’t feel comfortable with any lineup.

I kept getting stuck around a core similar to yours: Winston - Bell/Hyde/Duke - Evans - Philly D. I put in Z.Miller as a punt TE hoping that the rookie QB will need a safety blanket and it saves a bit. That would leave about 9K for 2 WRs. IF you wanted to get action from the other high teams, you could get in Amendola and a cheap Dallas WR like T.Will or Butler at that point, but then IMO we are looking like a gpp LU. Sorry for my lack of help this week. I think stuff will open up more as news and injuries come out. Seattle Rbs, A.Jones, Blount, Gallman, Vereen at dirt cheap RBs that could be used in the flex and free up even more $, but you still have to decide what players you are using tonight before that though.
Brate and Hogan worked ok, Winston didn't kill you. What was Martin's price this week ? I had to use him in my year long league after S. Cook went down and meant to look him up in DFS and forgot.I decided to go with this in my league

I guess we’ll see what happens
Martin was 5.5K. DK has done a decent job of being ahead of people coming back from injury/suspension and have them priced up a tad.Brate and Hogan worked ok, Winston didn't kill you. What was Martin's price this week ? I had to use him in my year long league after S. Cook went down and meant to look him up in DFS and forgot.
Interesting, maybe I'll throw a dollar entry in using something like this.Crazy gpp idea of the week: Hoyer + A.Robinson + T.Y. Hilton.
Looks like both Ds have been giving up a lot of points to the WRs and Qbs so far this year. I think a lot of people will be trying to fit in Packer and Dallas WRs. This got me the exact opposite, and I was able to fit in Bell, Gurley, and Zeke with it, so I know that I can fit in whatever RB combo that I want or rotate to higher priced WRs (ie I was able to make another LU with Bell/Dez/Nelson).
I think I am going to use this core for my $1 3max gpp entries.
Yea it worked out. Got 79.26 from those 3Brate and Hogan worked ok, Winston didn't kill you. What was Martin's price this week ? I had to use him in my year long league after S. Cook went down and meant to look him up in DFS and forgot.
An even cheaper and grosser game stack that I wrote down when I was looking at cash players: McCown + AS-J + DukeJ. Allowed me to put in Bell, McCaffrey, Dez, Cobb, Hilton in there too. 0% chance I try stuff like that on FD, but with ppr and bonus points, you need about 40-45pts from these stacks to make it worth while. So hoping the Qbs can either cross the 300yd mark and/or get 2tds, and the other guys could each get 5 for 60yds and you'd be right there. If I remember right, I think Duke has hit 4x each of the last couple weeks too.SwampDawg said:Interesting, maybe I'll throw a dollar entry in using something like this.
Very nice start to the week. Did many others play much in that game last night in your league?chasyone said:Yea it worked out. Got 79.26 from those 3
Yea. A lot had Winston, Brate and Evans. I was the only one to have DJax and I think only a few had Hogan. I’m sorry I had 4 from last night that got me the 79.26. Still a good start. I did good taking out Humphries amd squeezing in DJaxVery nice start to the week. Did many others play much in that game last night in your league?
I wouldn't be. You are already ahead of the guys starting Evans and spending $ there over D.Jax, and you got a good game out of Hogan. You got 300yds out of a 6K Qb, too. Didn't about 150 win it last week? That means you have 5 guys that need to combine for about 70-80 points and you haven't used your RBs yet. I would think that you are right in the action for the week.Yea. A lot had Winston, Brate and Evans. I was the only one to have DJax and I think only a few had Hogan.

I don't think he's saying he's sorry that he used those guys. He's just apologizing for saying 3 guys when it was really 4.I wouldn't be.

Agree here on Bortles. He also will be without Lee this week. IMO at that price range you probably should look at a guy that has a bit of a rushing floor like Brissett/Watson, or go even cheaper to a better matchup like McCown/Hoyer.I wouldn't use Bortles especially on the road. For the same price you could go with Taylor or drop down to Brissett to pair with TY.
I also think Jaron Brown for 4k is a better play than the other 2 WRs.
Isn't Brissett more than Bortles this week? Dunno - looks like the IVC is all f'd up right now.If he drops to Brissett can do TY Dez and Jaron Brown at WR I think.
You're right, was going off the IVCIsn't Brissett more than Bortles this week? Dunno - looks like the IVC is all f'd up right now.
I think it looks good, and I have something similar. The good news is that everybody will be dealing with the same thing this week, the bad news is that our games might be decided by what 3K crapper WR we played or which turd QB we played.Bell and Gurley are killing my salary cap, but I think they both have favorable run matchups this week. I dropped Bortles for Hoyer, T.Y for Dez.

This line up gives me only $100 to play around with. Should I cut one of Bell/Gurley in order to try and upgrade Kenny Stills into someone much better?
I was doing well, but Gordon was chalkier than I thought and Hoyer was the play instead of Hoyer, so I went from winning $10 to losing 15 in the last 25 mins or so.I’m still hanging but Hyde and Robinson are killing me
That stinks. So far I’m 2nd in my league and in the money in all my double ups.KarmaPolice said:I was doing well, but Gordon was chalkier than I thought and Hoyer was the play instead of Hoyer, so I went from winning $10 to losing 15 in the last 25 mins or so.
