Need help!

Standard points...

QB (pick 1): Tagovailoa (Q - @CIN) or Stafford (@SF)

Tua is planning to play, but playing less than 100% on a short week... Not crazy about away teams on TNF to begin with.

RB (pick 2): D Cook (Q - @NO), Patterson (vCLE), Wilson Jr (vLAR), Dillon (Q - vNE), Hall (@PIT), Carter (@PIT)

Dalvin is banged up (day to day), and going up against a stout run D. Patterson is likely a lock. Wilson or Dillon?

WR (pick 2): Samuel (vLAR), Waddle (Q - @CIN), Kirk (@PHI), M Thomas (Q - vMIN), D Johnson (vNYJ)

Samuel has a tough matchup, but they move him all over. Waddle dealing with a groin issue.

FLEX (pick 1): Any leftover RB/WR above

@SteelersPride @TREFF @averagejoe @SmokingMonkey @Shanemansj13 @femurov @tlance @Barilko
still dalvin and patterson.

waddle, and geeze at this point samuel.

flex hall.

QB ugh stafford

Standard (not PPR)

Start 1
Russell Wilson or Jared Goff

Start 2
Chubb, Harris or Patterson

Start 3 WR/1 TE or 2 WR/2 TE
Pittman, Curtis Samuel, Boyd, Kittle, Hockensen
1. Wilson... Call me crazy with his paltry 13ppg, but Raiders are giving up 4th most ppg to opposing QBs. I think this is his "get right" game, if it is to ever happen.

2. Chubb & Patterson... Najee has a good matchup, but the Steelers are splitting backfield reps 60-40 (closer to 70-30) with Jaylen Warren. You got much higher ceiling with Chubb & Patterson.

3. Sit Kittle? ... Pittman is a lock for WR1 in terms of volume. Samuel is getting the volume, but the production ebbs & flows. I'm most afraid of Kittle here given the injury to Trent Williams. If Williams sits then Kittle is going to be needed in the trenches. If Williams plays, then I'd probably sit Boyd. I just don't trust TNF players, and Tee Higgins is going to play further reducing his target share.

Mixon tonight v Dolphins
or
Jamaal Williams v Seahawks on Sunday?

Williams, and confidence level is high.

Detroit is one of the highest scoring teams in the league so far, while Seattle is one of the worst run Ds in the league so far, surprisingly the Lions are supporting 2 of the top 6 or 7 RBs for fantasy currently, and Swift prob isn't playing or will be limited again....very nice list of 'pro' points for Williams to get the nod.

Bengals are off to a slow start with poor OL play on the season, facing a Dolphins D that teams have had a lot of success passing against but not rushing, and Singletary catching 9 passes last week is the only decent fantasy outing a RB has had against them so far.

I made this exact call in another league already, so have thought about it a lot last couple days. "Mixon is due" is really the only reason I can come up with to play him over Williams.

Start 3 WR/1 TE or 2 WR/2 TE
Pittman, Curtis Samuel, Boyd, Kittle, Hockensen

Goff - right now, I think you have to play all your offensive pieces against Seattle until they prove otherwise. Middle of the pack against the pass and one of the worst against the rush.

Chubb is locked in, regardless of format. I'm assuming Steelers Harris? or Patriots Harris? I'd easily go Patterson over Patriots Harris, but I go Steelers Harris against the Jets over Patterson vs Browns

"Don't start Hockenson" is good advice most weeks in fantasy football, so I'll stick with it, give me the WRs and Kittle

The good Hooplans have spoken!

1. Stafford in a landslide (only 1 vote for Tua)

2. Patterson is a lock by everyone. Cook* if healthy, if not Wilson. Wonder if everyone knows Trent Williams is slated to miss a handful of games?

3. Samuel by majority vote. And Waddle* if healthy. If not Kirk.

4. Kirk if I start Waddle. DJ if not.

Well thought out. I had penciled him in and I'll make it permanent now. Really need a win, can't start slow on a Thursday.

but don't you just get this feeling in the pit of your stomach that at some point, the real slim shady will stand up and you'll be left holding the bag that week?

I mean, it's Goff..and its Detroit post Megatron..

without a doubt, but I think it is much more likely to happen in their upcoming stretch vs NE, DAL, MIA, GB than it is vs a Seattle team that's been run over by the Falcons and 49ers

I like Williams a lot on Sunday. Crazy season so far, but he's my choice here. If Tua's healthy, he and Burrows could put on a show tonight.

QB - Sorry... late to the party.

RB - Cook and Dillon or Patterson. I have Dillon in my main league, so I may be a little biased.

WR - Johnson and Kirk.

Flex - Patterson, Dillon, or Samuel... wait. Is that Deebo? I was thinking it was Curtis. Deebo plays here.

Chubb and... which Harris? Najee over Patterson over Damien

I think I would have said Boyd. If you didn't, probably sit Hock.

Zeke/Dillon - none have long TD potential imo
Kirk - until proven otherwise, I think Kirk is a must start in any format, Kirk has way more long TD potential than Thielen too in case you let bonuses impact your decision

Lost st.brown for the week
PPR league
Start 2:

Mike Williams, Brandon aiyuk, Romeo doubs- I can pick up Noah brown and/or Richie james

Leaning towards- Williams( wasn’t going to list him as an optional bench but did since he has been a huge disappointment) and aiyuk.

Start 1

Breece hall, zeke, hunt. Or one of those WRs on top

Leaning on hall this week. Can’t ignore the reception floor.

Looks like Winston isn't playing this week, so I am going to run with Williams and Cooks. Thanks for all the input.

I am in the same boat with Williams. Luckily Allen is out again.
I think the players you're leaning towards are the best of the lot.
