Who are looking like the priority waiver wire pickups? AP?

Gotta add Malcolm Brown to that list as well. 18 carries for the Rams tonight for 70 yards and 2 TDs. Caught a few passes as well. I think he got all the goal line work. People were talking up Henderson being the #2 back behind Akers but Brown got the carries over Henderson last year so if he's healthy, I'm betting Brown is still going to be the guy. Akers is gonna get plenty of looks, but if based on what I saw tonight, I'd say its gonna be 60% Brown, 40% Akers.

I'd put Brown as priority over Hines this week. I think Indy will play Taylor more and use Hines as the secondary back. Brown is gonna be the starter

That Kamara not so TD was almost BS, screw the Saints. Only projected to win by .4, I used all the help I need

Good thing I was working with a 40 point cushion.

i dont think i exactly shit all over him. Ive never said he was bad........the one ive shit on has been aaron jones..........he had a great game, he was dropping dimes left and right....manipulated the pocket, directed things downfield, vintage rodgers
Wish I would have bookmarked them. You have taken more than your share of shots but it is what it is. During the offseason I predicted we might see MVP Rodgers this year. So far so good!

Think the thing is, if I don’t say he’s too 5 elite, you always take it as a shot.

You and I have gone back and forth many times. You enjoy stirring the pot and slinging shit. Nothing wrong with it...just own it.

I was just pointing out that many people said he was washed up

And that may be pre mature. But it also
May be pre mature to go off one game....
Im not under any illusion that he will throw 64 TDs last year but so many we so fast to write him off.

I'm not going to lie...seeing MM avoid the FG and throw on 4th and short last night made me chuckle. MM is a solid coach but in crunch time he has some weird play calls. Gets overly conservative when he should be aggressive or like last night super aggressive when he shouldnt be.

I think the main thing where we differ, and I “stir the pot”, is I still think he’s a very good quarterback. But I don’t believe he is what he used to be..... neither is Ben....

its all good. Just having fun after a good game. No hard feelings. I think most of it was after the drafting of Love but its not important. I am just happy we have real football to talk about. Week 1 was super sloppy but sloppy football is better than no football

My only worry is that Akers is supposed to be the guy, and maybe the Rams are just letting him get acclimated before making him the main back.

They are RB's who are guaranteed significant touches...yea, they are definitely worth owning. Taylor was worth owning before the Mack injury..Hines was too in PPR formats. Now they're both "must" owns

Would you drop any of the following to put in a claim for Hines?

Tyler Boyd, Ceedee Lamb, Joey Gallup.

Yes. What does your WR depth look like?

Hard question. Because the answer is no. But because you have all three and you probably have a weak rb bench, the answer is yes.

but whom?? Of those three I would drop Boyd. Because at least with lamb and Gallup, you will always have the cowboys number 2.

My starting RB's are Kamara, Mostert. My bench is Dobbins and Hunt.

I'm also rostering Hockenson until I know George Kittle's status. I could drop Hockenson if Kittle is healthy. If Kittle isn't healthy, then maybe he gets put on IR, and I could add Hines using the free spot.
