Cam on a bye. Was going to stick it out with Taylor...Nope...Tried to trade K.Benjamin for Carr (owner has Dak, Big Ben, Carr) who has not been used once this year and needs WR. He asked for Cooper instead....Nope. Was going to try and ask for Big Ben instead, but hate Thursday night games...

So I am stuck with these options..

Bortles vs Clev.
Dalton vs Den
Cutler vs TB
Fitz vs Mia
Gabbert vs Hou
Flacco
Hundley
Kizer
Peterman

Yup...Any other trades I can try and swing for Benji before his stock falls even more...

Bortles vs Cleveland should be a decent play for this week. He's been serviceable all year for the most part and this is a good match up

Cleveland has I think the #11 overall defense and is top 5 against the run. Making Bortles one dimensional without two of this top three WRs and Lee also possibly misses the game. Seems risky to me.

your trade fiasco could have very well been, "well that's a BS offer (which it was), here's an even worse BS counter offer, now whatcha wanna do?".

Try Benji for Dak, both had shit games last week, might work.

Otherwise I'd roll the dice on Bottles v Clev

Who are your WRs... I ask only because if you are throwing a die, you might as well pair your starting WR with a QB... If you have no receiver of those potential QBs, I would go Flacco... he throws more than anyone there, he just needs something big to happen...

I fear bortles because they are a run first team... even if Fournette has been struggling recently, and Cleveland is surprisingly good vs the run...

Cutler or Flacco for me - similar shit situation as you in a couple leagues, as I had Tyrod QB2 and Watson QB1.

I think the veteran QBs are the way to go to keep a safe floor, Bortles has been Bortles all year, minus the game in London where he dominated. Just feel like Cutler v TB or Flacco v GB has a 2TD floor for this weekend, and both have fairly weak schedules ahead too.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least to see the Ravens score a lot more as their schedule isn't as tough as it started, 1 game vs Pitt only intimidating D.

still... there is one thing we know for sure, and it is that Jacksonville never wants Bortles to be the game plan...
Bortles inexplicably threw 51 times last game

and almost lost...
Im not advocating for him to throw more. They should have lost. Rivers should have never thrown that ball that got intercepted late in that game. I started Bortles last week with 51 attempts, normally a fantasy owner dream, and he wasnt great.

WR are M.Thomas, Cooper, Landry, C.Davis and Benji. I'm starting all but Benji...

Never said it was a good deal. I tried to get a good QB who won't play from a team that needs WR help badly.
