PPR league. Need a K. Allen emergency plan since he didn't practice Friday. Not a lot to choose from here, but  I need one in the flex:

* D. Henderson vs. CINCI -- great matchup. Henderson could get a ton of garbage time reps and McVay may use this game to lighten Gurley's load. M. Brown out too.

* D. Thomas @JAX -- Darnold throwing to him. Hasn't resulted in much production. JAX secondary not what it used to be.

* P. Williams @PIT -- Not a great matchup but Fitz is throwing to him.

* D. Hamilton @INDY -- Indy tends to give up the underneath stuff, but he also has Flacco throwing him the ball.

* Z. Pascal vs DEN -- Not a great matchup, but he's producing despite the fact he's sharing snaps.

* A. Erickson @LAR -- This guy is kind of out of nowhere, but he's getting targeted a ton the last 2 weeks. Could be again in a catchup game.

* T. Ginn vs AZ -- Peterson could be on M. Thomas. That said, Bridgewater not going deep too much so upside could be low.

* TE Options: J. Smith (vs TB), J. Hill (vs AZ),  C.Brate (@TN) -- All have excellent matchups! And OJ Howard and D. Walker ruled out. Looking like Cook is heading in that direction as well.

Which?

THanks!

PPR league.

Key question is this...do I dare sit Z. Ertz?

Ertz has a bad, bad matchup @BUF who are one of the top teams defending the TE. Plus, he has Goedert eating away at targets not to mention the fact that the Philly offense as a whole has been garbage. Throw in a windy rainy day in Buffalo as well and...ugh.

Options otherwise would be:

* C. Brate @TN -- OJ Howard ruled out. TN D has been forgiving to TEs.

* J. Hill vs AZ -- The best matchup for TEs in fantasy.

* J. Smith vs TB -- D. Walker is out. TB also is terrible at defending the TE.

Stand pat with Ertz? Or role the dice with one of these other options?

Thanks

Hey Sig,

I have been ruined by injuries and trades this year so looking to make a trade since I only have 2 wins and Carson Wentz next 4 weeks are a bye and 3 brutal matchups. Half PPR and 4 pt pass TDs

Would you trade Wentz, Corey Davis, and DJ Chark for Stafford and TY? The owner is interested because he's undefeated. I'm thinking yes because both past their byes but my depth could be worrisome. We start 2 rb 2 wr 2 flex 1 te 1 qb 1 dst 1 k

If he doesn't end up biting, is Wentz for Stafford straight up still worth it since I need wins right now?

(QB: Wentz RBs: Chubb, Henry, R. Jones, Ty Johnson, T. Cohen, D. Henderson WRs: Tyreek, Chark, C. Davis, AJ Brown, Watkins, Kirk TEs: Hockenson, Howard)

Sig,

1.) My league starts 1,3,2,1,1,1,2. (deep starters), shallow 5 man bench, full PPR. Should I trade the SF defense owner my MVS? This will be my 2nd defense, I own the Pats. 

Some weeks I start 5 WR, right now I have: Wr=Godwin, Lockett, Stills, AJ Brown, Ridley.. MVS is my 6th. I have N’Keal in my IR spot who I’ll have to activate soon if I keep him 

(Rbs= chubb, Coleman, White, Edmonds/  TE= Waller, Everett) 

Im going to have to drop someone for a streaming defense next week, which I refuse to do, but can:

(A) stream DEF and not play a kicker and just middling streamers out there or (B) only play a kicker and leave DEF empty (who at least cant get negative points). If I can get (C) SF in that trade, maybe I will hold both, which is yucky, and play the matchups since SF schedule isn’t all gravy. 
 

2.) judging by my roster above, knowing I need 9 skill position starters. How do u like trading edmonds, Everett, MVS or another Wr3 for Amari cooper? 
 

3.) primer shows y’all have Ridley higher than Tevin, Mvs, AJ B, I need one. He was boom bust with Matty ice, now I’m really scared with concerned with Schaub. Is tevin the safest play? I’d love to be a part of AJ or the Monday night game. Are they all about the same for u? 

thanks sig!

Hey Sig!

Simple enough; Wentz or Rudolph...

and standard WR - would you sit one of the 3 : Beckham (vsNE-Gilmore) / Hilton (vsDen-Harris) / Cooks (vsCin!) for Metcalf (vsAtl!)

Thanks!

Hey Sig!

 

In a standard league, I have to start one TE and I have Waller and Kittle. I was planning on starting my 3 RB’s, Edmunds, Murray, and Lindsay, and not flex one of my TE’s. So, do I start both TE’s and sit a RB, or start those three RB’s and only start Kittle or Waller. If yes, on the three RB’s, which TE should I roll out there. 
 

thx for the help!!

Hey Sig!

RB2: P Lindsay (Broncos offense is pathetic)--or--M Gordon (not done much since holdout)--or--C Edmonds (DJ is GTD...again!)?

TE: Kittle or Henry (only 1 TD YTD for Kittle & high wind/gusts expected in SF)

Thanks in advance

Standard scoring w/ 1.0 PPR

  1. RB (Pick 2) Mack, Jones, Lindsay, Snell (leaning Mack/Jones)
  2. (for context rolling with Wilson @ quarterback Hopkins/Evans @ wide receiver and Waller @ tight end)
  3. Flex (Pick 1) Mack, Jones, Lindsay, Snell, Crowder (leaning Lindsay)
  4. DEF (Pick 1) TEN or CAR
  5. ??  Are you bullish on Snell ??
  6. ?? Which DEF do you prefer for the long haul - TEN or CAR ?? or hold both and play week by week match-up?

League # 2 w/ 1.0 PPR

  1. WR (Pick 1) Keenan or JuJu (already started McLauren and not even entertaining Devante Adams)
  2. RB (Pick 2)  Gordon, Mack, Michel, Snell
  3. Flex (Pick 1) Keenan, Juju, Gordon, Mack, Michel, Snell

PPR League. 12 team league with roster size of 18 (10 starters, 8 bench).

Curious if you think both Will Fuller and OJ Howard are cuttable?

I'm racking up injuries with K. Johnson and K. Allen hurt. Fuller is supposed to be out multiple weeks while OJ is out for this week and has been terrible.

I see reinforcements on the waiver wire at WR (D. Hamilton, P. Williams, others) and a few RB lotto picks. I also have Z. Ertz at TE (just traded for him due to OJ's lack of production) and have T. Lockett and C. Davis at WR along with K. Allen.

One thing on OJ: Been hanging on in the hopes he's traded somewhere so I could either a) play him, or b) use him as a trade chip.

Keep Fuller? OJ? Both? Or drop?

Thanks

Q1: 0.5ppr, pick two from Marvin Jones, Mike Williams, Kenny stills (Assume keenan allen is out)

q2: From this list:  what are your two best RB handcuffs that if injury to starter were to occur would be a RB2 or better

gus edwards, mckissic, penny, hines, wilkins, dion lewis, gio, ty montgomery, armstead, darrel williams, prosise, gallman, bonnafon, justice hill

q3: 0.5ppr, being reported kamara is out, i have gurley but need one more RB from burkhead, henderson, drake... Or a deep cut from waivers if you have an idea. Starting to get worried Drake may not play at all Monday as they try to trade him before Tuesday

Good day, Mr. Bloom,  0.5 PPR, otherwise standard. 12 team league.

Rodgers or Stafford for QB this week?    Hard to not start Rodgers after last week, but big love for Stafford this week...

One of Dorsett, Everett or Alison for flex?   Was leaning Dorsett, but there is bad weather in NE...

thanks again!

Hey sig!

With Dak on bye, start Jimmy G or Ryan tannehill? I'm leaning Tanny.

Seems odd to even ask, but with the injury concern even if he plays - David Johnson or Mark Walton? 🥯

if it matters, I'm a significant underdog in this game.

 

different league, do you bench DJ for D Parker or Hyde (flex)?

Hey Bloom!

Leaning toward starting Kenny Stills over Calvin Ridley this week (even if Matt Ryan starts and even given the departure of Sanu). Am I on the right track?

i like it. ridley might get more volume but QB precarious and stills matchup is excellent

Hi Sig,

have a strong team, but WR3 is weak (Crowder or Kirk).  Would you trade Ekeler, Coleman, Brieda, D. Freeman for an Upgrade? Any Targets?

sanders, stills, john brown. would try to hold ekeler, not attached to others, esp in PPR

hard to bench any of those WRs, but hilton vs harris is a tiebreaking factor
