Hes an intriguing dude for sure, one you want in your roster before he has his first big week. But in an eight man, with your roster, theres just not room, not unless you wanna bank on Kittle

Kittle has been ruled out, and I was able to put him on IR in my league. I have a free spot and just added Joshua Kelley as a FA. Gibson is on waivers until tonight. Mattison is available as a FA. Out of those 3 guys, who would you rather own in a 0.5 PPR?

I personally would rather have Gibson. But, hes a guy youre gonna have wait on. Whereas Kelly is more likely to be more helpful if you need him sooner. Mattison is pure desperation for anyone other than Cook owners, and in thier case he's nothing but insurance.

Anyone flat out dropping Lev Bell for Gibson at this point?

Gibson is certainly an exciting guy. Maybe he goes off tomorrow. I had asked in another thread about whether I should put in a waiver claim for Bell. Bell is worth rostering, but it seems like people think he's a low ceiling, high floor guy. I like taking the chance on a high upside guy like Gibson.

Why do you think Bell is worth putting on your team? Jets suck and I bet mentally he's checking out.

No. I'm just doing mock drafts on Yahoo. I have 2 teams on there. Thinking of adding another team. Just practicing to see if I have decent draft skills.

Basically because I could put him on IR, so it's like I'm adding him for free and not having to use up a roster spot.

Can you IR Bell and just add Gibson without dropping anyone?
Bell is currently occupying my IR. I’d have to drop him and move Golladay to IR to add him without dropping Diggs, Marquise Brown, Swift, or James Robinson. Of course, that only solves my problem for one week with the IR slot

14 teams, seems like a pretty solid squad to me.

Oh, that sucks that you have 2 injured guys. My league gives me two IR spots. You are definitely keeping Golladay, so if you want to swing for the home run by adding Gibson and dropping Bell, then I say go for it.

Now you got me wondering whether Gibson is a better option than Swift.

I'm not high on Swift right now. The backfield is crowded right now, and AP probably earned at least another week of decent volume.

Gibson might only get 10-12 touches, though. However, he might be a better big play threat than Swift and he appears to have less competition in the backfield.

But to be clear, I'm not saying you should drop Swift. Keep Swift in the roster. I'm just saying it's not crazy to start Gibson over Swift.

Trying to make roster decisions right now.

So I'm spending this Sunday on the east coast, down in Augusta GA..one very serious question...

How in the entire fuck do you all wait around all Sunday morning until 1PM for games every week?? What do you do to occupy yourselves until kickoff? Tiddlywinks? This is insanity
