that is dead sure to win.

So there is a fairly good chance I could pick up Chris Thompson via waiver because I am 1-2 (non-PPR).

There has been one trade in the last three years in this league so I could drop Lamar Miller, Cam Newton (I have Brees as my starting QB), Davante Adams, JJ Nelson, or Golden Tate. Who is the most worthless?

Alternatively, I could try to convince the league taco to claim him so he has a chance of upsetting someone.

Any big WW standouts this week? I once again have #1 pick, but I'll probably be using that on Russell Wilson, since my Siemian experiment didn't really pan out. But for other positions I don't really see anything worth while, other than maybe Geronimo Allison as a plug and play if Cobb stays out.

Smallwood, Foreman, Allison (probably only if Cobb is out), Alex Collins, Stills, Richardson (if Baldwin is out).

Of course these are guys that are available in my league. May not be available in yours.

It's ok, get those in season sell highs while you can. I just managed a 2018 1st for Hoyer + 2018 2nd in a superflex league :) Might start sending out feelers on Amari Cooper too

Jordan Howard feels like a sell high right now. That shoulder worries me; he's almost certainly going to end up missing time I think.

The OBJ owner is open to moving him. I'm very deep at WR and would love to consolidate some depth into a better WR so that I can stash more RB lotto tickets. Maybe it's crazy to do this before the byes start...

I've had preliminary discussions with the OBJ owner of Demaryius/Howard/either Landry or Garcon for Odell/Lamar Miller.

It's a 12 team, full PPR, WR/WR/RB/RB/Flex league. Miller really scares me with Foreman coming on, but I'm so shallow at RB that I need to get a RB back in the deal. It'd likely have to be Miller or Kamara.

This would leave me with a roster of:

QB: Carr
RB: Lamar Miller, Cohen, Jamaal Charles
WR: Odell, AJ Green, Keenan Allen, Landry/Garcon, Tyrell Williams, JJ Nelson
TE: Gronk

RB is obviously really ugly, but that pass catching group is beastly in a 12 team PPR league and I feel comfortable starting Cohen every week. I'd still have 4 very good WRs which would help cover all of their byes.

--------------------------------

tldr: Demaryius/Howard/either Landry or Garcon for Odell/Lamar Miller. Thoughts?

Who else see da leprechaun say yaaaa!
I too am trying to sell my Howard to the Hill owner who needs RB help, who is stacked at WR.

14 team, full ppr

Is Howard for Hill straight up fair?

I'd be rolling Mixon, Coleman, Allen at RB obviously hoping Mixon starts taking off.

But it would give me M.Thomas, Hill, Jeffrey, Hogan, and Thelien as my main WRs.

So a league member and I are re-visiting this trade:

I give - Dez & Ingram

Pull this trigger if we agree? It's 1PPR.

Tyreek Hill? To me Howard is worth more. I think your RBs would be weak and your WRs seem fine as-is (Thomas, Jeffrey, Thielin seems fine?)

I know people are down on Howard but I think it's over-blown, the man was a monster on Sunday and that's with the AC injury he has, against a good defense to boot. If you're desperate to sell him Tyreek is fair but after this week I'd probably want a little more.

The problem is the AC injury isn't going to go away if he keeps playing. He was reportedly slow to get up on a number of second half plays. That scares me.

I'd stand pat. Demaryius has stopped scoring TDs, dating back to last year. I'm trying to move him before people realize that.

About to drop Jacquizz since Martin is back next week, and since I need WR cover I'm looking at picking up Will Fuller or Mike Williams. Any thoughts on who might be a better bet once they're back from Injury? Lineup looks like this atm:



Basically Tyrell Williams has been absolute crap so I want to make sure I've got some cover there.

Why on earth are you rostering 2 kickers? And to a slightly lesser extent, why are you roster 2 D/STs?

Are those really the best guys on the wire? I don't like either of them and would honestly probably prefer to hold Jacquizz if for some weird reason you need to roster 2 kickers and defenses. Definitely drop a K and D/ST before Quizz.

Short story, I started with Janikowski and got a bit overzealous in getting rid of him. Long story, I've been playing FF for four years because a friend needed me to fill a spot in his league and I know nothing about it/American football besides what I've learned from playing FF.

edit: I get a bit paranoid about making sure I have cover for bye weeks because it's a 14 team league and there's never usually much on the wire.

double edit: I'm not making any moves this week until maaaybe after waivers go through, so really just planning ahead

Pretty sure Martin's suspension is 3 games, not 4.

Okay yeah, you never need to have 2 kickers. They are fungible. Someone will be available to cover the bye week (and drop your kicker to replace him. Not someone on your bench). D/ST can sometimes be worth rostering 2, but definitely not in your case because Miami is bad. Drop them and worry about covering Denver next week.

Can you post a list of the top available WRs and RBs?
