Deshaun Watson v Cleveland or Matt Ryan v Miami? If it affects things, I have Julio too.

Definitely Fitz, then Gore or Allen being the harder choice. I'd be fine with either.

I was actually heavily leaning Abdullah for flex. Do you think Gore will be in a closer game or something?

It was the 0ppr that turned me off of Abdullah, whom I have in 1ppr and I'm stashing him for this week. Not that he's a bad choice, he could be heavily involved against NO but without the ppr bump, it's hard for me to justify over, say Keenan.

It's impossible to sit Watson right now, but also with maybe Julio back and maybe Sanu not back, Ryan's receiving corps is beat up and they have spectacular RBs to lean on. And as you said, you've already got high exposure to that offense.

But mostly you can't sit Watson untill he stops having 5-TD games.

Fitz and Allen easy. The Oak pass defense is atrocious and Mack is starting to steal more and more carries from Gore.

Ryan and Julio have both been unimpressive this season from what I've seen. I'd definitely play Watson.

Similar question to Crunkjuice's:

Watson vs Cleveland
Brees vs Detroit

6 PaTD

I'm currently starting Watson because my opponent has Alex Smith, Bell, Freeman, Fournette, Gronk, Tyreek, and DT. It seems like I could use his potential 40 point upside to have a chance, especially paired with Hopkins.

Counter argument: Drew Brees.

Brees is the safe play, but looks like you need a homerun. Go for the Watson/Hopkins stack vs CLE.

I dropped Tyrell Williams for Agholor...Fpros says this is a mistake but with Mike Williams coming back and the Eagles offense looking better than the chargers I disagree with them.

So I'm pretty positive I'm starting Cam over Jameis, unless someone convinces me not too, but do I play Funchess this week as well? I'm agonizing over this decision after getting burned most the season on TNF plays.

.5 ppr for WR, .75 for RB, 1 pt for TE

here's my full roster:



Kareem Hunt is a must-start, so is Evans, and Kelce if he's healthy. That leaves me 3 Flex (wr/rb/te) spots to fill.

Yeah, Brees definitely is the safer play, but I really feel like I need to swing for the fences with this matchup. Watson had incredible games the last two weeks, a great one before, and then an ok game week 2. His only bad game has been week 1 against Jacksonville and he was still able to put up astronomical numbers against the Chiefs D. That and the Browns are why I'm leaning Watson pretty heavily.


RB2 question:

With Shady out, should I play Hyde@Was, Muscle Hamster@AZ, or Buck Allen vs Chi as my RB2? Full PPR.

I'm torn mostly between Hyde and Martin, but Allen is still an option.

No PPR

With Powell and TWest not practicing, I have a decision to make for my flex (pick 2):

McGuire vs. NE
Collins vs CHI
Cohen vs BAL
John Brown vs TB

Also TE:

Brate vs ARI
ASJ vs NE

Ive listed them in the orders I think are best. I am also hesitant with starting both McGuire and ASJ since its the Jets and the Pats D is looking better.

Well, I'm not staking a flag on whether he hits 5 again, but he's arguably the most capable of doing it. He has the ability (and thankfully a sense of vision and self-preservation that RG3 lacked) to supplement his passing production with rushing TDs, of which he has two for the year.

I'll also add that, side-by-side, his top two wideouts are outperforming Brees' top two wideouts.

If you have both Hopkins and Watson like Cotton Candidasis and I do, you ride that train until the wheels fall off.

I'm just saying there are quality NFL throws and there are "chuck it deep" throws. I'm down on Watson because he isn't making pro throws he's throwing it up for grabs. Defenses will adjust and then he'll have to throw quality NFL-tier strikes on out routes and over the middle and he will most certainly get picked off. It's coming.

Unless TB's got some defensive players back they are one of the worst pas defenses in the league. I'd take a gamble on JJ Nelson this week.

Fuller against CLE.

Tate is the PPR guy, but his TD potential is always limited, and especially against a surprisingly moderate pass defence vs the slot in NO. I would def roll the dice with JJ Nelson vs TB.

1. Would it be crazy to sit Rodgers @ MIN for Ryan v. MIA this week, in 4 PTD? The MIN defense hasn't put up many fantasy points this season but they are really good, especially at home, while MIA seems mediocre. On the other hand ATL has injured receivers and a great running game...

2. Who should I flex in 0.5 PPR? The choices:
Kamara v. DET
CJ Anderson v. NYG
McKinnon v. GB
Thielen v. GB
Landry @ ATL

Yahoo projects the most points for Kamara but that seems a bit optimistic.

2. I'd go Anderson. That should be a clock milking type of game for Denver.

Man, I just missed out on Kroft in dynasty. Should have given him priority over Roger Lewis on the waivers. I think Eifert is done, he can't stay on the field--the Bengals are gonna have to look to Kroft for the future.

I say this as a Bengals fan. Really wish Eifert could be the guy he was in 2015.
