No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

He'd cost a 1st rounder next year, so basically no. Though i already have Jordy (8th) and Diggs (7th) that i could keep for next season.

If you have a championship contender, I'd probably pull that trigger.

I expect things to get worse. I have a really bad feeling about Washington this year. I would try to wrap him into a 2 for 1.

I think the second is worth it, the first probably is too but it'd be better imo to drop Elisha since there will be a similar QB to fill in with out there when the bye week comes.

I put DJ on IR and 125$/500$ bid in for Buck Allen. Seems like a lot but even with Williams on my bench I feel like I need the depth.

I may be in the same boat. With DJ and Woodhead gone, my RBs are now Crowell, Coleman, and Powell (.5 PPR).

Cohen went late in the draft in my league so Allen will be one of the bigger targets and I need all the help I can get in this league. Currently trying to decide how much to bid on Allen, Kamara, and Williams.

Alright I need to lay out my RB situation and get some opinions. Two 14 team leagues. 1 PPR.

Team 1: Montgomery, Ingram, Mixon

Team 2: Montgomery, Hunt, Blount, Riddick, Duke Johnson

These dudes are available: Cohen, Kerwynn, Ellington, Buck Allen, Marlon Mack, Carson.

What should my waiver order be for both my teams?

I am a little torn on Golladay. Had lots of mental mistakes on the field on film. Also of note, he always going against the 3rd option in Arizona's secondary...

...but with Marvin Jones & Tate, he's gonna keep drawing the 3rd best guy on the opposing secondary....

Dude is 6'4". Had an amazing preseason. First game? 2 TDs.

I wouldn't panic on Henry yet. I'd be waiting to see how he goes against a Defense that isn't from Denver.
I think Hooper will be competing more for receptions than Henry will be long term.

Good to hear all these high-ish bids for FAAB guys.
Go freaking HARD on a guy if you really want them. It's so rare a FA talent develops later in the season when compared against the talent shift that happens during week 1.
I'd rather end up crippled on FA with a guy I like than start week 2 with a fistfull of FAAB and a hole in my roster.

Thoughts? I'm really trying to form a full-opinion on FAAB because it's the wild west of strategy advice right.

Should I panic on Ebron? Arizona was #1 against the TE last year so maybe that accounts for the low score but Fleener, Brate, and Clay are there for the taking.

I'm a bit worried that Henry's breakout last season was more due to not having Keenan Allen around. Watching the game yesterday with Keenan Allen working the short and intermediate, it looked like Henry was relegated to mostly blocking.

But then again that could also be due to playing against the Broncos defense.

Yeah if I was going to just guess their seasons based on the talent around them and their QB's I'd say Fleener > Clay > Ebron > Brate.
I think Ebron is better than Clay, But I think Clay will get more love. I'm just going targets over talent basically.

I love Brate, but I think he's going to have to compete more for receptions this year too.

Should I stay with Rex Burkhead on the bench. Should I cut him lose and get best flash-pan of the week, knowing Burkhead will score like 3 TD and get 80% of the snaps the min I do? I hate Bill Belichick.

My RB game is weak since my only good RB is DeMarco Murray. I have Terrence West slotted as my RB2 and Paul Perkins as a backup.

For QBs I have Rodgers, Mariota, and Winston (lol QBs x3). I'm thinking about dropping Mariota and picking up Tarik Cohen. Is Tarik worth dropping a good player to the wire or is he a one off fluke? I mean it's obvious I need to get rid of at least one QB at this point but I was hoping to trade one of them but it's a bit early in the season to find people willing to start swapping dudes.

I'm still torn on what to do with him or Cohen. I don't need Cohen, I'm loaded at running back, so I am leaning Golladay.

I'd like to grab and stash him but can't drop anyone for him yet, so i'll have to wait until Cohen gets flattened due to his small stature i guess.

I'm dropping him for Cohen/Williams/Sims/Vereen/Thompson/Carson.

This will inevitably be a mistake.

Alternatively I could drop CJ Prosise, which I might do because LOL Seattle.

Is 75/200 for Cohen as the Howard owner too little? Too much? My other RBs are Abdullah, Martin, Rawls, Lewis

I've been trying to get rid of Gillislee at a "high" value. I've tried to reach for Jordy, Evans, Cooks, Green from guys who have bad RBs. Some guys with good WRs and RBs I've not bothered. Still waiting to hear on Michael Thomas or Baldwin. Would guys like Fitz, Crabtree, Demaryius, Keenan, or Pryor a good deal for me?

Alternatively, I also have Melvin, Zeke, and Ajayi which I could trade for a top WR and keep Gillislee.

For perspective my WRs are: RIP ARob, DeAndre Hopkins, DeVante Parker, Tyrell Williams, Robby Anderson.

My favorite part of all of this is that my mother-in-law drafted Buck Allen after she got angry because we were starting to enforce the clock and she didn't like being pressured.

I'm among the many people with a broken DJ, and I'm tired of sucking rear end in my league so I'll ask for advice. I'm in an 8 man ppr league with bonus points for big plays and this is my current roster:
QB Tom Brady, Marcus Mariota,
RB Jay Ajayi, Ty Montgomery, David Johnson, Joe mixon, Ameer abdulla
WR Michael Crabtree, DeVante Parker, Randall Cobb, Alshon Jeffery, Donte Moncrief, Marvin Jones Jr.
TE Gronk
KR matt prater
D steelers

I put in a waiver to drop Mixon for Cohen or jaquizz rogers, and drop moncrief for Golladay. I'm third in the waiver wire so least one of those will pass but is there someone else I should be targeting? Here's the top 5 available in each category:
RB Cohen, Steward, Thompson, Vareen, Tolbert
WR Thielen, Golladay, Agholor, Kupp, Fowler III

I'm in a 1qb 2rb 2wr 1te 1flex league if that helps.

I wouldn't drop Mixon, certainly not for a 3 week rental of Jaquizz. You also are in pretty desperate need of better WRs. Probably hop on Thielen and hope he's the real deal.
