Thoughts on starting Rawls? I have Riddick in half PPR but if he's starting it might be worth doing.

If Carson ends up the bellcow I will hate myself.

Do nothing until we find out what the backfield actually looks like with Healthy Rawls (for two series before he tweaks something again)

You should be starting Riddick anyway in PPR because Rawls doesn't catch passes

Someone tell me why Demarco Murray is doing nothing for me. Is Henry getting all the carries? What's the deal?

Did it anyway. Oh well.

Just received a trade offer in my 1 PPR league.


His Marshawn Lynch for my Tyreek Hill.


my RB's are Demarco Murray, Ingram, Powell, Tarik Cohen, Joe Mixon. WR's are Jordy, Mike Thomas, Crabtree, Diggs.

2RB/2WR/Flex

Guess I'll be the voice of dissent and say definitely accept. Hill is your 5th WR, and if Demarco misses time or cedes more work to Henry, your RBs are awful. Lynch will be a workhorse if they need him to be, and is a solid RB2 even on limited reps.

It's 1 PPR. Lynch is nowhere near as valuable in 1 PPR as he is in standard. That trade is a huge no. You do need RB help though.

He jogged out, stood in front of a defender, turned around, then gimped off to the sideline.

He was working on an exercise bike on the sideline hope that means it's not too bad.

If anyone was wondering Bremel's initial thoughts on Gronk are that the injury appeared to be Back/Hip even though they said groin. He's expecting Gronk will get a MRI and be week to week. Rob Kelley with the ribs could be 1-2 weeks. The outlook for both will change when he gets more info.

With Gronk out Engram is the only TE FA still worth picking up before waivers. Worth dropping any of these guys for him?:

Rawls
Crowder
Burkhead

I'm thinking Rawls since Carson actually looked even behind that O-Line. Any reason to hold him at this point?

Does anyone else have leagues with someone designated to write pre/post-game promos? I joined a work league last year and started doing a humorous breakdown of the matchups every tuesday. I now get hounded on tuesdays around noon with "Yo, where's the weekly?" texts if I'm even remotely tardy.

Not mine, but that's how the FFBallers podcast got their start (iirc)--doing a weekly recap podcast for their home league.

You should be like me and tell them they have to write them too. Each of our 12 owners does a writeup at least once during the season.

I usually play some kind of heel each season. When Wreck It Ralph came out, any team I defeated, I turned their team manager into one of the Sugar Rush racers and make candy puns with their players' names, like Marshmallow Lynch, Golden Taste, Adrian Peanutbutter or Candies City Chiefs.

This year I'm Donald Trump playing fantasy so after each week I have a special twitter message for my opponent, based off of real tweets.

"We MUST have strong entry requirements and stop illegal team managers like "Felipe". Without that we do not have a league. Also, Mexico is killing U.S. in fantasy. Lose!"

I was sitting in my office on that drizzly afternoon listening to the monotonous staccato of rain on my desk and reading my name on the glass of my office door: regnaD kciN

In one league this week, my opponent scored 193 in part thanks to Brady, Hunt and Montgomery. His lowest scoring player was Delanie Walker with 12 points. In non-PPR for gods sake


The next highest score in the league is 112, which of course is my score
