WDIS - Week 5

[Shanemansj13]

Seeing your roster, honestly, I'd stay with what you've got. Your team looks fairly strong, stronger than his imo. I think your WRs are good enough to make it work. Not worth parting with Kittle imo

Yeah I felt the same, it's just starting two Bengals some weeks can be frustrating.

 

[Shanemansj13]

The John Ross injury makes me feel better about possibly starting two Bengals week after week lol

 

[Shanemansj13]

Start Tom Brady vs WAS or Russell Wilson vs LAR in 6 pt = TD league?

Right now I have Wilson in.

Wilson for me, never know when Patriots will rush for all their TDs vs passing for them

but - HIGHLY doubtful Tom shits the bed 2 wks in a row, I'll just go with the game that has more shootout potential

dredging the bottom of the barrel QBs:

losing BigBen hurt in this league, lots of teams are carrying QB2s leading up to the bye weeks already.

dropped Stafford (bye wk) for Cousins v NYG currently - seems like a good spot for a breakout game, even if Kirk sucks, so do the giants (unless you're dwayne haskins)

other options:
Flacco v chargers
Chase Daniels v raiders
mariota vs bills
Gardner v panthers
Rudolph v ravens

thoughts?

I like Cousins against NYG more than any of those other matchups tbh. I think Thielen will also have a breakout game, Cousins getting called out should motivate him this week.

I would keep riding Russ... not literally.

I would probably go with Cousins. There's nobody who really sticks out in the other options.

PPR, bonus points for TDs over 40 yards. 1/50 return yards.


Need 2 RBs and a flex.

James Conner vs Balt - The injury, matchup, and usage of Samuels scares me
Marlon Mack @ KC - Injury concerns me, but coach said he could have gone back in. Good matchup if they can keep it close, but if they get behind big, they will abandon the run and play Hines more, imo.
Fournette @ Carolina - Seems like a safe plug and play RB2 right now.
Devonta Freeman @ Houston - Who knows with this guy?
DJ Moore vs Jax - Has had 7 targets since the QB change.
Alshon Jeffery vs NYJ - Played Thursday, so he has more time to rest the injury and has a juicy matchup


I had to (well, turns out I didn't HAVE to, but I did) drop Jaylen Samuels to field a full lineup last week. I plan on trying to get him back, so if Conner is out, I feel like he is a slam dunk to start.

Been trying to trade some of my depth for a stud RB, but haven't had much luck yet.

I ended up getting Samuels and I have another extra spot now. I can grab Nyheim Hines or Jordan Wilkins. I feel like if Mack does not play, Hines would gain the most from it, being the 3rd down back and the Chiefs should put up a lot of points and force Indy to throw a lot. Hines could get some serious junk points in that situation.

auden tate?

auden tate?

Worth a flyer in a deep league

 

[Shanemansj13]

Flex full PPR

Aaron Jones vs DAL
Damien vs IND
Jeffery vs NYJ
Kirk vs Cincy
Tyrell Williams vs SD
A.J. Brown vs BUF

Lean Jones but Jeffery is intriguing. Kirk is an option but he is questionable and probably won't be close to 100% even if he does play.

 

[SteelersPride]

PPR

1 RB and 1 Flex

Joe Mixon vs ARI
DJ Moore vs JAX
Sony Michel vs @WAS
Josh Gordon @WAS

Yuck Mixon , moore

Considering on countering this trade offer though.

I receive:
Cooks
Aaron Jones
Vance McDonald

He receives:
Kittle
Mixon

I'm thinking of countering...he also has Hockenson at TE and I also have Delanie Walker on my bench.

This is a PPR league, if you want to know rosters I will post just didn't want it to be a very long post.

I wouldn’t do it

Honestly do u wanna gamble they start throwing? They should, and he could post big numbers, but they have shown no signs of doing that. Even players are grumbling. Signs point to it but I’m not doing anything till I see it.

that said I can see chase Daniels or flucco doing better nothing great but the floor is there.

Flex full PPR

Aaron Jones vs DAL
Damien vs IND
Jeffery vs NYJ
Kirk vs Cincy
Tyrell Williams vs SD

Just one?
Damien
Jeffrey
Jones
Tyrell
I’m not even rostering and brown

My rule for so much in FF is "when in doubt, go RB". Works in drafts, line up choices, regardless of leagues. But in this specific scenario, I'm actually leaning Jeffery here. Jets are trash, Wentz has a good relationship with him. Jones should get the full work load now (especially with no Williams or Davante Adams this week) but that Dallas D might present difficulties. They held Kamara in check last week and he's way better than Jones. And while in week 1 they did give up 120 to Barkley, it could be a tad misleading. Barkely broke loose for a 59 yard gain on a busted assignment early in the game. They held him to 61 yard the rest of the way.

 

[SteelersPride]

PPR
CHris thompson
Damien Williams
crowder
singletary
gallup

need a flex and wr

wr is shoddy, can drop someone and get:
Auden tate
Mike williams LAC(meh hurt and wasnt doing crap)
diontae johnson
corey davis
dede westbrook

 

[Shanemansj13]

Damien or Singletary is worth a start, might lean Single.

tate is worth a pickup with Ross and AJ out vs a shitty Zona defense

 

[Shanemansj13]

Full PPR got offered: juju and devonta freeman for Hopkins.

will probably decline but here is my roster

Fournette
Hopkins
Ekeler
Evans
A Jones
Ebron
Hockenson
Kirk
Jeffrey
AJ Brown
Damien Williams
