Well time to pray for me. Knowing I was gonna have a week 6 bye by my QB.
I picked up Derek Carr last week in preparations of this weeks bye week. Only he didnt make it through last week, so I have been forced to pick up Daniel Jones to "start" for my team this week :oops:

Words I never thought I would say! :censored:

Other guys I could consider
Herbert who in my league hasnt scored decent points all year.
The Rattler who replaces Carr in NO.
Or take a chance on Maye's 1st start for the Pats, but I just dont trust that teams offense at all.

& before you all think I am crazy. (which you may be right) we gets points for comp. so with Jones throwing a ton of short passes he actually has outscored my QB several times (Mahomes)
Danny Dimes

Gonna assume there's nothing else on the wire but yeah, Dimes is your best bet

So. I have Kyler Murray. I wont drop him yet. But tough to keep starting him. Im 4-2. And in about to be in a 4/5 way tie for first. Which is bonkers. My wrs are weak and rbs battling injury so my roster almost needs my bench guys .

Heres the waiver options. I need to bid on Caleb right? Its faab.

Heres my roster

Qb-kyler murray
Rb-saquon
Rb-jonathan taylor
Wr-pitttman
Wr-sutton
Wr-tolbert
Te-trey mcbride
Flex-joe mixon
D-colts
K-tyler bass


Bench- trey sermon
Bench- dameon pierce
Bench- chase brown
Bench- calvin ridley
Bench-jordan whittingham
Bench-JSN
Bench- Dontavion Wicks

I think wicks and probably ridley and JSN are all cut candidates. I can fish a trade but not sure I can get much.

Kyler ain't cutting it, that's for sure. Caleb or someone needs your attention.

Man, Ridley had 0 catches on 8 targets this week. That's hard to do. Maybe your old boy Rudolph can get in there and make him mediocre at least.

Pittman and Sutton are barely alive themselves, staying relevant from one saving play each week.

I know. Pittman really is killing me. I hit gold with rashee rice in round 9. Looked in great shape and then boom he got hurt, mixon got knicked up, as well as others.

What other WRs are out there? I'd probably look to bolster that first before picking up William to play for Kyler. Kyler has been up and down but he hasn't been outright bad. Your pressing need is more WR based. You could get bold though.

Drop Ridley or Pierce for Williams, and then try packaging Kyler and one of your RBs for a WR upgrade. Whether its Saquon, Taylor, or Mixon is up to you. You've got Brown on your bench who can be your flex with one of those RBs traded and you could also maybe get a lesser RB with some upside potential in the trade back as well

Pittman's value is directly tied to Flacco. Whereas Pierce seems to get targets no matter who the QB is.

Rumor is Pittman is gutting out a back injury. Colts are considering putting him on IR.

Its a sloppy situation with Richardson, Flacco, and even Taylor in and out of the lineup.

If JuJu is available, he might be worth a spot.

How do you guys feel about these players moving forward

CHE- opportunity coupd be there

Ray davis-is cooks injury anything serious

Christian watson-crowded receiver room and always hurt…but opportunity is there?

Keep an eye on sean tucker. I loved him coming out of college. I still stand by he would of been a top 4 round pick if he didnt have health concerns.

Any other guys intrigue folks?

Not sure there is enough there yet to count on Ray Davis. Cook should be back. I guess if he sits out again you start Davis but I venture to say Cook will be back this week.

Nothing to suggest Watson will get more targets than the other WR's and Kraft at this point.

Agree, keep an eye on Tucker but Irving is very solid too. Does not look good for White going forward.

How about a little Michael Wilson this week? Kyler has to throw to someone other than McBride right

Wouldn't go out of my way for CHE unless its a deep league and you're desperate for anything to pop. He's had opportunities in the past and he's never really put up the numbers consistently people expect from him.

I'd roster Davis in most leagues, especially as a handcuff if I have Cook.

Watson, no. Always hurt. Not worth it. Plus between Reed, Doubs, Kraft, that's a lot of pass catchers. They're not all gonna pop every week.

Tucker really depends on opportunity. If White is healthy, its probably gonna be more of a true committee. If White is out, he's got more value but will still split with Irving. He'll be playable, but more like a nice flex/low RB2 than the beast numbers he put up this week

hope you're right, but I'm getting a bad feeling that this RBBC is gonna be a headache for fantasy, and you'll have to get lucky picking the right guy week in week out if they're all healthy. Would love it if they'd trade White to Dallas

Doubt it... its Hunt's show until Pacheco returns

Cook is not far out

Boom bust for sure. Worth a gamble

Upset I didn't move on him earlier

I still think Dalvin gets a look here soon. Not sure what's left in his tank, but its more than Zeke's

Looking to dump Godwin and possibly Juju and pick up another WR and maybe a handcuff for one of my RBs.

RBs available...

Jaylen Wright (I have Achane)
Dameon Pierce (I have Mixon)
Devin Singletary (not a handcuff, but available)
Jaylen Warren (also not a handcuff)

WRs available...

Romeo Doubs
Jakobi Meyers
Troy Franklin (is he becoming relevant?)
Rashod Bateman

Any thoughts here? Looking more at the rest of the season than just next week. Leaning towards Wright and Doubs right now.

I'm kinda liking Franklin these days, but more for Dynasty.
