I have to pick one of these WRs. 0ppr Corey Coleman @ Bal Martavis Bryant v Min Tyrell Williams v Mia Golladay @ NYG Agholor @ KC Really not sure what to do here. Leaning Williams, especially after Bryant did nothing last week.

Thanks, I appreciate all the advice! If nothing else, it's narrowed down to Golladay vs Hyde.

I nominally say Hyde as well. Hyde is the absolutely undisputed bell cow back, on an offense where they're clearly trying to run the ball often, in a matchup against a team with legendarily good corners and safety. The only issue with Hyde would be the likelihood that the niners wind up down three scores in the third quarter and are forced to throw the ball, plus the likelihood that Hyde isn't going to see the end zone. So Hyde gives you a solid floor from a lot of touches and being good enough to stack up yards, but his floor could be 125 yards and zero touchdowns. Golladay probably has a lower floor potential, if the Lions wind up favoring Tate, Marvin Jones, T.J. Jones, Ebron, Riddick, etc. - there's a lot of targets. But he's probably got more touchdown upside. If I was feeling behind on points in my matchup and going for a highest-upside option, I might start Golladay over Hyde. e. Note: Sherman probably played injured week 1 and may not be 100%, which gives San Francisco slightly more potential in the passing game, and by extension, more options for Hyde to stay on the field for touchdown drives.

FantasyPros says I should starts Davante Adams as my WR2 over Dez Bryant, and start Lamar Miller as my Flex over Dez Bryant. They want me to bench Dez. I thought the rule was "always start your studs" so I feel conflicted. Is the Flex position a coinflip? I guess, uh, Pick two out of these three for WR2 and Flex: Davante Adams Dez Bryant Lamar Miller Standard scoring. I just want to better understand the arguments for benching Dez, or have someone go "always start your studs!" FAT BATMAN fucked around with this message at 19:14 on Sep 13, 2017 |

Same here but mine is between Adams, Gillislee, & Watkins in flex for my 1 ppr league. It's also telling me to play (with all experts selected) Mark Ingram over J Stewart and (with only top 20 selected) Tevin Coleman over J Stewart in my Flex spot 0ppr. Me thinks something is broken at least for the second one.

Ok, thanks for highlighting the up (and down) sides for Hyde and Golladay. I'm slightly projected to win, so I'll probably start Hyde.

Cotton Candidasis posted:1 PPR, pick one for Flex: For me it's a tie between Bryant and Golladay just based on who's throwing to them. Don't trust the QB for the other two, and Hyde isn't likely to rip off a bunch of run yards against the Seahawks.

Sorry if this is the wrong thread... didn't see anything for trade advice. My RB situation in one league is pretty iffy. RB1 is Dalvin Cook (who had a decent start), and 2 is Bilal Powell who I hoped would get the bulk of the work but in reality they're splitting between him and Forte... plus the Jets suck. My bench is pretty bleak. My WR list is much better off (especially when OBJ comes back), and I have a trade offer on the table for Amari Cooper (mine) for Lamar Miller (his) and a "something small" (need to determine what). That'd leave me with OBJ, Alshon Jeffery, Willie Snead (when back) and Rishard Matthews as my main group of WR. So should I take the trade? Or should I stay the course with Powell knowing my RB's are likely to give me subpar performances but hope for big numbers from OBJ and Amari?

OK, 0ppr, but 1 point per first down for WRs, 2.5 points per first down for tight ends. Choose my fourth flex spot: Brandon LaFell vs. Houston (thursday game) Mohamed Sanu vs. Green Bay Jesse James vs. Minnesota

Sanu, then? I'm already leaning Sanu, but Jesse James with that 2.5 point thing is tempting, even if he doesn't score two touchdowns again. How is Green Bay against tight ends?

Both are ~3rdish in their respective pecking orders, on productive offenses. Also, James is up against MIN, not GB. To best answer the question would require a look at how many first downs James got last game and how many MIN gave up to TEs last season.

James' scoring last week: 7.50 3 Receiving First Downs 10.00 2 Receiving TDs 4.10 41 Receiving Yards 21.60 Total Which reminds me that it's 5pt touchdowns (because a TD also counts as a first down, I think). How relevant is MIN's performance against TEs last year? Anyway I don't know where to find "first downs given up to X position" by year or week, regardless. It's a tough decision. My inclination is to go with Sanu, but that's probably borne at least in part from aversion to tight ends, but with these scoring options... well as you can see, even without the TDs, three first downs and some yards are enough to beat a decent WR performance.

Less yards = less first downs kinda thing. Turns out that they were middle of the pack in terms of yards per game, and tied with HOU and BAL in shortest average yards per reception ("bend but don't break"). http://www.espn.com/nfl/statistics/team/_/stat/receiving/year/2016 So maaaybe one could extend that to indicate a tendency to keep the ball in front, which lends itself more to slot receivers and TEs?

1 PPR 6pt TDs My RB are in shambles after loseing DJ and Woodhead. Pick 2 for RB 1 and 2 Kerwynn Williams Ameer Abdullah Javorius Allen Joe Mixon Kerwynn v Colts seem like the smart pick. but Should I gamble on Mixon put it together against Huston more then Abdullah against NYG? Looking through the FAs Shane Vereen Alvin Kamara Matt Forte Chris Carson are all available too... ScottyJSno fucked around with this message at 01:55 on Sep 14, 2017 |

Suave Fedora posted:I was just wondering aloud whether the MIN defense was stingy or not against receiving yards. Less yards = less first downs kinda thing. When I switch the chart you linked to defense, and sort by average yards per reception, Minnesota is 12th, so a bit above average but not startlingly so. They were fourth from best in receiving yards per game, though. I take those stats to mean the MIN defense as a whole encourages offenses to run the ball, but gives up first downs fairly regularly when they do get thrown on. But again, 2016 stats, and I'm just not sure how much that's relevant, it's a new year with new players and so forth. Although it's interesting! Anyway I'm not particularly closer to making a decision. Probably Sanu has the safer floor, I might just go with him on that basis.

0.5ppr need flex bilal powell @ oak ted ginn jr vs ne Powell didn't get as many touches as I'd like last week so it doesn't make me super confident against the Oakland defense. Ginn had a good amount of targets and KC recievers did pretty well against New England last week but Brees has so many options.

Berry's replacement Eric Murray is pretty good. I'm not sure about playing Eagles receivers considering their coach was a Chiefs assistant. You may think it will give Doug Pederson an advantage but I think it actually gives Bob Sutton an advantage.
