SteelersPride’s Year long FF help thread

Aside from the NE game, the Jets look like a great defense moving forward. That schedule is awesome.

it helps greatly have Sam back too. The defense will actually be able to rest some now

 

[TKOSpikes]

Need some opinions on my defense moving forward...

Standard Pts. Default settings.

Current Defense: Jaguars... They have been a huge disappointment this year. They have scored 32 points through 5 WEEKS, which is an average of 6.4ppg. And 25 of those points came in week 3 alone. Looking forward they have a favorable schedule (vNO, @CIN, vNYJ, vHOU, bye, @IND, @TEN, vTB, vLAC, @OAK), but I don't know if I can trust them? Ramsey being out shouldn't unravel this unit like it has, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I thought they would be able to contain the lowly Panthers last week (aka contain CMC!) but they only scored me 2pts which has caused me to lose all faith.

Waivers (sorted by total points so far):
Eagles (@MIN, @DAL, @BUF, vCHI, bye, vNE, vSEA, @MIA, vNYG, @WAS)... averaging 12.4ppg
Saints (@JAX, @CHI, vARI, bye, @ATL, @TB, vCAR, @ATL, vSF, vIND)... 10.6ppg
Texans (@KC, @IND, vOAK, @JAX, bye, @BAL, vIND, vNE, vDEN, @TEN)... 10.6ppg
Jets (vDAL, vNE, @JAX, @MIA, vNYG, @WAS, vOAK, @CIN, vMIA, @BAL)... 13.3ppg
Buccaneers (vCAR, bye, @TEN, @SEA, vARI, vNO, @ATL, @JAX, vIND, @DET)... 10ppg
Browns (vSEA, bye, @NE, @DEN, vBUF, vPIT, vMIA, @PIT, vCIN, @ARI)... 9.8ppg
Giants (@NE, vARI, @DET, vDAL, @NYJ, bye, @CHI, vGB, @PHI, vMIA)... 7.3ppg
Lions (@GB, vMIN, vNYG, @OAK, @CHI, vDAL, @WAS, vCHI, @MIN, vTB)... 9.8ppg
Colts (bye, vHOU, vDEN, @PIT, vMIA, vJAX, @HOU, vTEN, @TB, @NO)... 7.6ppg

I included all the matchups for today because I am highly considering dropping them before they play today. But also not sure if I should give them 1 more chance against Teddy-2-Gloves today. What would you do?

Any advice is much appreciated!!!

@SteelersPride @averagejoe @TREFF @tlance @femurov @Shanemansj13 @TKOSpikes and anyone else that wants to chime in!

Browns...you know you're getting sacks.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Was offered Freeman and Juju last week for Hopkins. I declined I have good depth. I think I made the right choice.

Nuk is starting to piss me off.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Who should say no to this deal? Or good overall trade for both teams?

1/2 ppr league

Team A gets Julio Jones, Zach Ertz
Team B gets Keenan Allen, Devonta Freeman, Chris Herndon

Team A’s other W/R/T are Tyler Boyd, Courtland Sutton, MVS, Kamara, Melvin Gordon, Ronald Jones, Alex Mattison, Darren Waller

Team B’s other W/R/T are Golladay, R Woods, Dorsett, R Anderson, C Samuel, Conner, Jordan Howard, T Cohen, J Samuels

Ertz is on my bust list this year.

to me, JAX is the best D our of the bunch, so either stick with them, thick n thin, or stream weak to weak and hope theres always a decent matchup available.

Personally, I hate streaming D'S, prefer to have a solid one to ride, but JAX has only been solid about half the time, so, might not be a bad idea

If you had to ride one of those defenses I listed on Waivers, which one would you take?

 

[averagejoe]

id stream and not worry about having one set in stone, no one you have or that is listed there is great

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Ugh I'm having trouble with starting Keenan Allen today in my money league. He was questionable leading up to this morning, but he was announced as active. Coach Lynn said he would limit his snaps "to a degree" if he did play. Going against Chicago D on the road. I fear Allen will have minimal output today.

My only other option is Diontae Johnson against Miami. Which is a dart throw even if its a good matchup. Steelers offense hasn't found much luck passing downfield, and they appear to be a run-heavy team at the moment.

Thoughts?

I benched Allen for AJ Brown today. Not looking like a good move. But I might be screwed either way. Neither doing much.

I chickened out on benching him. Kept him in and only has 4.6pts. 1 quarter to play. Fingers crossed he hits paydirt.

Who won this trade? 1/2 ppr.

Team A has at WR Keenan Allen, Odell, Will Fuller and at RB Kamara, Melvin Gordon, Devonta Freeman, Damien Williams, Derrius Guice.

Team B has at WR Tyreek Hill, Edelman, Chark, Fitzgerald, Crowder, Marvin Jones and at RB Lev Bell, Ronald Jones, Joe Mixon, Royce Freeman.

The trade is straight up.

Team A gets: Edelman
Team B gets: Freeman

Team A might need Edelman, but Team B needs RB help, and Freeman as only had one stinker in the past 6 weeks.

I think it’s a fair trade for both. I’m Team A and like the Edelman side a little more.

They both lose. Both are left with little depth at respective positions.

 

[knowyourenemy]

Disagree. I’ve got WR1/2 players with Fuller as a possible WR2/Flex and have two RB1s with a solid Flex play in Damien Williams. But we’ll see.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Yeah. Gun to my head, I'll take the getting Edelman side. Kamara and Gordon stay healthy, you should be good.

 

[SteelersPride]

Where do u see fuller as a wr2? Even Damien is not a solid flex yet. He was hurt and unplayable for weeks....

Fuller is a boom or bust play. I won’t play him until week 16 against the Bucs, if I make it that far. But he’s probably a WR2 with that matchup. But that’s sort of why I needed to trade for Edelman. Fuller is too inconsistent.

 

[knowyourenemy]

Pick TWO to start. 1/2 ppr league AND I’m going against the top team and Mahomes this week so considering Damien Williams to try to steal points there.

Odell Beckham vs PIT
Keenan Allen vs KC
Damien Williams at LAC
