1pt ppr league with 1pt per 20yds. I've been streaming TEs all year and need an option for the first week of playoffs. Here are my options:

Tim Wright
Jermaine Gresham
Jared Cook
Jace Amaro
Scott Chandler
Jordan Cameron
and many other shit options

Other ideas are welcomed and I'll let you know if they're on the WW. I tried snagging Reed but someone else got him.

My first reaction is Cook or Wright, and keep an eye on Cameron to see what the hell is going on with that.

Remember in the beginning of the season when the TE position looked kinda deep? :rollseyes:

Sorry, didn't see the ppr...probably not Wright. Cook might be a good play, though.

With that pile, I would probably go with the biggest upside...

probable yards leader- Cook

Probable Receptions leader- Gresham

most likely to get more than one TD- Wright

Most likely to get a TD- Chandler

Chances are the Yards leader will not be overwhelmingly ahead, and due to the fact that your league is one point per 20 Yards, I would not worry about yards at all...

Even though I feel Chandler is most likely for a TD, I don't see him getting too many receptions or too many yards...

so to me it is between Wright and Gresham... Gresham is the safe play, Wright is the gamble... But with such weak choices you might want to go with the gamble guy, just for the what could be!!!

1 pt PPR makes me go Cook - even with those bricks he tries to catch footballs with, the Rams continue to feed him plenty of targets.
In your settings, the targets/receptions are way more valuable than the yards.

I decided to go with Chandler. In Denver, it could be a points explosion from Denver and Buffalo may need to throw a ton to catch up. At least that's what I'm hoping for.

I agree.

Not sure why anyone is saying Cook since it's PPR..dude hasn't had more than 3 catches since week 3, and had exactly zero with only one target against friggin Oakland just last week.

Although there has been no official word from the Browns, two tweets from Jordan Cameron suggest he will play.

Yesterday he tweeted

"This elf is off the shelf"

And today

"Go time"

Obviously, you need to check the official active/inactive lists when released, but against the Colts ranked 32nd in fantasy points allowed to TEs, you need to start Cameron.

1) Shaun Hill is back
2) Cook is leading rams receiver
3) skins' pass defense is one of the worst in the league

Don't get me wrong, it was a complete crap shoot, but there were some legit reasons to like Cook this week as a dart throw, and he performed today.

Day throw was exactly right. Which is basically what the entire position had been all year long. Graham, Gronk, and J. Thomas the only ones with any resemblance of consistency.

2 of those same three reasons applied last week also, and it sure wasn't the Raiders faux pass defense that held him to 0 catches
