DK

Start I'm assuming

 

[MilkSpiller22]

players in bold are the ones I'm leaning towards right now

1) 12tm half ppr - pick two:
Evans v DAL, Fournette v DAL, Penny v DEN, Bateman v NYJ, DJ Moore v CLE, Eli Moore v BAL

2) 12tm half ppr - pick one:
Bateman v NYJ, Patterson v NO

3) 12tm half ppr - pick one:
Diontae v CIN, Cooks v IND, B Hall v BAL, Hunt v CAR (will pivot to Cooks if Diontae's shoulder holds him out)

1- SAME
2. Patterson- this is week one... the falcons are not going to be crazy... they will use the player they were supposed to use
3. Hunt- Brissett is QB, the browns are going to run the ball very heavily... and Hunt should get 4+ catches too...

No question, Metcalf.

Is Hunt going to get enough carries to justify passing on Cooks who is #1 on a team that will likely be behind in the game and passing...

JMO, but hunt is also the browns receiving back... and the browns are going to be very conservative... i see short passes and running all game... at least until they have to change... which i dont think they will have to change this week...

If Hunt gets less than 15 touches, i will be surprised...

What seems to help Hunt as well is they use him a lot in the RZ too

also, i know this is week one... but carolina is on the short list of teams i think will be "tanking" this season... Not that i really think teams tank, especially this early... but i do think bad teams find ways to lose

 

[Iggloo]

Of these four, I need to start two: Cam Akers, Clyde Edwards Helaire, Miles Sanders, JK Dobbins.

I am thinking Akers and Helaire in part because the other two are still returning from injuries and may get fewer carries, but what do y'all think?

very tough... Im a miles sanders truther... so i have him as a clear start... but most dont like him as much as i do...

so sanders is my first start.

the second one is tougher IMO... do you go with akers tonght , your top draft pick of these 4, vs an elite team?? or wait until sunday and choose...

id probably go akers and Sanders... this is week one, should be the healthiest akers will be this season...

idk about that. Going to be difficult to tank with that roster. They have a pretty solid roster to go somewhere around .500 or just below

Sanders and Dobbins (depending on his status). If not Dobbins, I will go Akers.

 

[Iggloo]

I am an Eagles fan so I try to counter potential homer bias. While I think the Eagles could break out, and that Sanders is in a great position to put up big numbers in that offense, he has been pretty disappointing these past few years. Zero TDs last year. So I am wary of him disappointing me again, and of the team easing him in this week after he has been out for weeks with a tender hammy.

CEH of course has also been a similar disappointment. I hope one of them steps up. Both are in contract years.

I like Dobbins as the season goes along but I am leery of him this week.

I think ouch. I would start Akers and Dobbins if Dobbins is active. Otherwise yes, CEH. He may be scuffling for touches, but probably not as much as Sanders.

 

[Shanemansj13]

.5 PPR

FLEX - Pick one

Damien Harris vs MIA
Hunt vs CAR
Godwin vs DAL
Schultz vs TB

Yeah, the Thursday night game makes this a tougher call. I think I will go with Akers and decide on the other pick as we learn more.

Schultz vs TB

I'd say Godwin but he's iffy physically. Most likely to outperform expectations would be Schultz. I think he and Pollard get a lot of action in this game.

dont think my answer would surprise... But Hunt!!!

 

[Shanemansj13]

All signs are point to Schultz. He has the most opportunity imo.

Godwin is banged up.
Harris has competition especially in the RZ
Hunt has RB2 but still should see pass catching targets

No ceiling on Schultz with Dak and they could get behind and Dak will be throwing 40+ times
