Garoppolo or Winston?

[ZepTepi]

Who would you prefer for the remainder of the season? I've always had a hard time believing in Winston but have him as my QB2 in one of my leagues. If you would prefer JimmyG, how much FAAB are you willing to bid for him?

 

[femurov]

I would put them about even. If you have one and no other backup, maybe grab the other and play matchups. I wouldn't spend too much on either of them, though.

again, if you have to ask... you believe they are close... why not take the 49er?? this is where fandom is supposed to take place... so let it!!!

Well, I personally think Jimmy G has a bit more upside based on the back injury to Winston but it's still close.

This.

Tie breaker to the healthy guy.

Jimmy G.
Winston has 4 cracked vertebre. No way he plays 15 more games without a complication.

My QB1 is Lamar Jackson. Winston is my only other QB. We only have 6 bench spots and I can't warrant having 1/3rd of my bench being taken up with QBs if I were to pickup JimmyG without dropping Winston.

Neither.

You could have zero backup QB.
Jackson's bye is week 10.
Assuming he plays thru week 9, you could take a chance and hope someone with week 6-9 byes start dropping their backups afterwards.

Ive considered that strategy but another team dropped Fields so............

I'd rather carry an extra RB or WR then stream for the one week of LJax bye

If a great QB2 falls in your lap, snap him up, but 2 mediocre plays like Winston/Garappolo don't have to be rostered in early Oct for a spot start in mid November

JimmyG, I wouldn't even bank on Winston being the Saints QB ROS, he hasn't exactly done much, nor does he utilize the best weapon, Kamara in the pass game. Dalton will, and if they Olay will under him..who knows?

And planning on any worthy QB being available when your #1 has a bye, and utilizing that roster spot elsewhere, is a risky gamble. Good luck winning with Geno Smith

Stinky Pete finally has a QB with some talent that he trusts to unlock his full offense, Gena proving all the haters wrong!

I knew someone would bring this one up..lol

If only they could play Detriot every week

for a one-week stream, the guy putting the ball into the hands of DK and Lockett is as good as any, but yes, typically will need the rest of your fantasy team to do the heavy lifting if you're relying on Geno at QB

Lamar Jackson is your starter.

You don’t need to roster a backup up at all.

Wait until the week of Lamar’s bye, (or the week before) and pick up the QB with the best matchup.

Use that bench spot in a more productive way.

Lamar Jackson tears an ACL the next day..start planning for next year

And or, just play matchups.

Streaming is a far better option than rolling with either of those 2 as your every week starter.
