So I did not even ask if I should play Gurley on TNF. I stuck with him regardless. RBs have the tendency to do well in TNF games and I really felt Gurley would stay hot and he did just that. That's just one RB, the other clear one is going to be Hunt. They say LA has allowed fourth fewest points to RBs. Well, Ajayi had 100 yards. Now Cook or Howard will be a GTD for me. If Howard's active I put him in. If not I have to go Cook. TB's defense against the run is rated high but they have played one less game that skews those stats. I don't think Cook has too much to worry about against TB(I think TB wins but don't think their defense is world beaters). Henry and Johnson are considerations perhaps but CJ0k has to have that game first before I play him in this league. Henry is playing Seattle so I feel his best bed is a goal line TD or two.

Now as for WR, I'm going Allen for sure. He was dominating before he got hurt last year against KC and KC is without Berry and possibly Houston. Their secondary is also looking worse this season as well. Bryant is a toss-up for me because it's on the road against a team whose secondary is hard to figure out. Atlanta didn't necessarily light them up. Hooper's TD was all him but that was a fluke as well. Other than that, Atlanta was contained decently in the deep receiving game. Cobb is playing, If he plays, a team who has been good against the slot so I am staying away. His 2013 game against them left a lot to be desired. I got JJ Nelson off waivers so I might go him. I dropped TyWill because I had no one else to drop.

I would love to put on some Kevlar, a gas mask, a hazmat suit and some hip waders, and take a stroll through Brees' mind. Gotta be trippy

You should probably look into moving one of those four backs for WR help, no?

Whatever Cobb does or does not do this week, in 2017, has absolutely nothing to do with 2013.

I thought he made it clear that he is not asking for advice.

That's some awesome running backs you've got there.

Not sure how that can even happen in a redraft.

So wait.............................I didn't pay enough attention here I guess. How many teams are REALLY in this league.
Gurley
Hunt
Howard
Cook
Henry

Maybe the question is more like WHEN did you draft this team. If it was Pre-Ware I can see it but even yer WR's aren't that bad for the RB's you have.
