Not sure if either is worth it but if you have space you could pick up both and see what happensWhite is still sitting on the wavier wire, should I pick him up and cut Tranquill?

Yes. From what I read it is possible he will be the def signal caller but it is still TBD.Looks like Justin Strnad
Lame blurb writer.(FantasyPros) According to the Denver Broncos, LB
Bradley
Chubb
will undergo an arthroscopic procedure on his ankle Wednesday. Analysis: A big blow for the Broncos' defense. With
Chubb
likely sidelined for multiple weeks, the Broncos will look to Jonas Griffith and Josey Jewell to step up in his absence.
It was Malcolm Smith.Malcolm Smith 'might' get some reps but the Browns put the green dot on S Johnson. JOK 'could' see more action. The early injuries to Jacobs and Walker have made a 'cloudy' situation more skewed.
Invest at your own risk.
I picked him up this week, I'm not starting him yet but I might be soon.John Franklin-Myers, what do you guys think of him going forward? I know he has been slightly Sack dependent but all the articles I have found seem to big him up this year and given the HC way of Defense, could he be the guy we had hoped Lawson was going to be before he got injured?
Saw this blurb on Rotoworld ( NBC Sportsedge or whatever):Yes. From what I read it is possible he will be the def signal caller but it is still TBD.
Makes sense. Is Barnes the guy off Collins left?https://mobile.twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1440785617214840836
Lions’ LB Jamie Collins, who was held out of practice today, has been the subject of trade discussions between Detroit and other teams, per sources. But Lions have fielded calls and are exploring a trade involving Collins
Yes, his name has been brought up multiple times the last couple of days by the coaching staff.Makes sense. Is Barnes the guy off Collins left?
Tackles are still lacking but he had an INT. Regardless there are always DB's on waivers that can score well. Work the waivers until Simmons turns it around.northern exposure said:It's Week 3 and I'm officially worried about Justin Simmons. 7 solos, 2 assists total this season at half time of Week 3 game. Anybody with any insight about what's up?
The only issue is we have extremely short benches in this league. So, I would have to drop Simmons to pick up another DB. I don't want to panic over a lull in production, but it has been 3 pretty low scoring weeks.Tackles are still lacking but he had an INT.

I would have no issue dropping Simmons if you have to. DB's are the kickers of IDP and there are always top 10-ish guys on the waiver wire because they turnover so much. It's hard giving up name guys but I have learned that for DB's it usually works out if you cut bait fairly early because serviceable guys are easy to find on waivers (especially if you have short benches).The only issue is we have extremely short benches in this league.

And we know White and Tranquill are not special players.Kenneth
Murray
in SD had press last week about his struggles.
White
was praised for his work vs. run and pass. This week
Murray
dipped to 51% snap share with
White
at 71% and Tranquil at 43%. Both had great stats compared to
Murray
's paltry line. They played the Chiefs so, despite not seeing any of the game, I'll assume LAC likely had a pass-based DEF in the game plan which may not favor
Murray
, anyway. Definitely something to monitor, as his snap % has gone from 100% to 79% to 51%. Ruh-roh Raggy.
I believe Barnes left early with a concussionKrys Barnes disappeared huh?
De'Vondre Campbell is the only Packer LB getting snaps, and had been a lovely starter for me for years, across what, three teams?
Additional points for having the longest dreads in the league, I think.

Gally said:Blake Martinez tore his ACL. Tae Crowder anyone?
Picked up Kenny Young a few weeks ago.LBs who might be on waivers but look like they could be LB3s+ after week 1: Kenny Young, Germaine Pratt, Krys Barnes, Christian Kirksey, Nick Vigil. Adding these guys in leagues where they are available.
I recognize two former Titans that never do much in here. Johnson is a freak athlete that never lived up to the billingGolden Gopher said:Need to add some depth in a league where I have Hunter, Josh Allen, Mercilous, and not much else (Carl Lawson and Tuitt on IR). Do any of these guys stand out as "must grabs" or anywhere close? This is a 16-team dynasty league where most teams have at least 4-5 DL, so I'm looking at guys who are outside of the top 75, but may have some upside (short and/or long-term).

They have two open roster spots and are expected to be involved in Jamie Collins bidding.Flying Elvis said:Adding David Long TEN LB where possible, as well. @Tick had posted the Monster article from week one and the week 2 version mentioned him (wish I had read it last week when Long would have been a FCFS add) as someone that may take over. @Bri continues to discuss Evans as a potential stud next year with a different team, but for now it looks like Long could be continuing with the high snap count. With Jayon banged up it was Long getting 100%, after 98% last week.

Long is good for IDP but NFL he's small (and plays small) and always reacts late meaning he's also scared to read and pounce. He's always replaceable. Way too many less experienced praise him for so many tackles and I'm here like yeah he tackled a back after eight yards gained.

With Anthony Barr getting a limited practice in yesterday and a questionable tag, does Nick Vigil turn into a pumpkin when he returns? Depth chart currently has Barr at SLB and Vigil at WLB. Anybody know if Barr was SLB in 2019?
That may be the expectation however Barr has really fallen off the past few years due to injury and age. I don't think Vigil will decline in production that much and think he will still be on the field a lot. I would hold Vigil.The expectation is that Vigil will become irrelevant. Definitely needs to be monitored closely, as Barr may need a week to get back to football shape and/or be "eased in" after a long absence.
This made me laugh from this week’s Monster:Adding David Long TEN LB where possible, as well. @Tick had posted the Monster article from week one and the week 2 version mentioned him (wish I had read it last week when Long would have been a FCFS add) as someone that may take over. @Bri continues to discuss Evans as a potential stud next year with a different team, but for now it looks like Long could be continuing with the high snap count.

Possible waivers: No new producers this week but Jalen Thompson (S) did have two good weeks in a row, I could be totally wrong about him and if I am you may as well add him now because it’s better to have him and not need him than need him and not have him, I won’t be though, I still don’t believe it’s real, same deal with Olujari on the Giants, it’s just outlier nonsense and we have such a small sample size that it looks good to people who have only ever seen three games worth of IDP production in their lives. I’ve seen sixteen games a week (approximately, bye weeks and whatnot) for sixteen weeks a season for eighteen years games worth of IDP production so I think I can smell BS by now. That’s over 4,500 games of IDP production sweet Jesus I’m getting old.
Anyone know when is Amani Hooker going to play again (right now on IR -foot)?This made me laugh from this week’s Monster:

Simmons has been playing mostly deep in conservative shells. Denver won going away against the Jets. I wouldn't panic over Simmons's lack of production just yet.It's Week 3 and I'm officially worried about Justin Simmons. 7 solos, 2 assists total this season at half time of Week 3 game. Anybody with any insight about what's up?
