should I drop Dalton for Eli this week and go with Carr ROS?

I dunno. I think Giants are going to get in more shootouts all season and they have a crazy WR corp so thats why Im sticking with Eli all season, but Dalton is no slouch either so I can't really help ya! All solid options

I dunno if nobody else in my league paid attention to waiver poo poo but I got Fuller, Coleman, Sharpe and Sanu.

My big money league team is off to a great start this year having taken Week 1 135-100, and I'm really stoked about the viable long term status of most of my team's core, but I know I'm gonna have to try to make a move or two to make it really a contender.

I can't take to the bank last week because my guys just aren't going to do that every week. We had one keeper, which I used on Eddie Lacy to take him 9th overall, and then drafted the team before you.

Since it's a 16 team 1ppr, I went RB(K), then WR, WR, WR, RB. So far, so good.

QB: Andy Dalton
RB: Eddie Lacy, TJ Yeldon, Dion Lewis(IR)
WR: Brandin Cooks, Doug Baldwin, Michael Crabtree, Michael Floyd, Eli Rogers, Devin Funchess
TE: Jacob Tamme, Charles Clay
D/ST: Bills, Bears
K: Matt Bryant

Any ideas for where I should start thinking about shoring up weakness? Maybe flipping Yeldon and Floyd for someone?

I'm also very content with my team as constituted. I'm waiting for the Woodhead owner in my league to make me an offer.

I don't know about all season as the defense is improved but I'd want Eli against the Saints this weekend for sure.

E: how do we feel about Enuwa going forward? I lost Keenan Allen and have JMatt and Wallace but I have a bench spot to fill and waivers are picked clean.

You have two active RB's on your team... Even if you only start one RB, that's a glaringly painful weakness right there. Your first second and third priority should be shoring up the RB position.

Get rid of your backup TE, and D/ST immediately for some running backs.

Oh should I mention that our lineups are structured as such?

QB RB RB/WR WR WR TE FLEX DST K

Having two RBs is a weakness but only as far as depth. Who are RBs I should target with my trade bait?

Drop Clay? Drop Bills?

Edit: I'm out of my element here, I always draft RB RB WR, so to have so many viable receivers is a wealth I've never known.

RCarr

RB depth is arguably the most important aspect of fantasy football.

Drop whichever TE and D/ST you like less, and see what RB's are available off waivers/free agency. You said it's a 16 team league so you're probably not going to find any gems, but anything is better than not having any backup RB's. Look at the post a few pages back which ranked this week's waiver pickups. Maybe see if you can package a WR or two for a RB in a trade.

QB streaming talk. If I'm looking for a QB for the next couple weeks because I drafted Tyrod late, who do you prefer? Cousins, Flacco, or Mariota? Cousins has the worst matchup this week of the bunch, but has some nicer ones in the next couple weeks, Flacco has two good back to back matchups, while Mariota only has a good matchup this week because he faces HOU week 3.

Flacco IMO

Cousins appears to be the consensus.

I would personally take a hard look at Matt Ryan against Oakland and NO for the next two weeks. Mo looked great, the running backs looked great catching the ball, and Julio is bound to surpass his week 1 line. We're getting "away Ryan" instead of "Dome Ryan" though, so expectations are tempered. But hey, he was QB6 last week, which was pretty much his wheelhouse prior to last year.

NO is just such a juicy matchup week 3 though. Carr just gashed them for a 300 yard top-10 finish.

edit: reminder, never listen to me for sit/start advice.

Rogers. He'd never be starting over Nuk, ARob, Coop, or Cobb, so you might as well take advantage of your depth and swing for the fences.

Is there any reason that Chris Hogan has such lovely projected points this week? I'm considering putting him in one of my flex spots in a standard scoring league:



Also, hopefully I'm picking up Tajae Sharpe in place of Aiken, but I have to wait until Saturday to figure that out.

Don't flex Hogan over any of those guys. I'd leave your lineup as is.

In case it wasn't common knowledge, snap counts/percentages are here, sortable by team and position: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/snapcounts . I found it really helpful when assessing IDP guys that didn't fill the stat sheet, as well as things like competition for a particular position. You can also see past years if you want to see historical trends for like a given team's WR3 involvement.

300 spent on Fuller seems like a much better investment than 100 spent on nothing.

Also I probably would have just kept Rogers.

I know, it was just a way to try and justify it to myself. So now I'll just say I spent 100 on Tyrell lol.

Either way I feel like having Eli or Tyrell is mostly adding depth. I think Tyrell could have the higher ceiling though.

Neither of those guys should be rostered.

Ajayi is like fourth on the depth chart now and Prosise will barely see the field even when healthy.
