I need a win desperately. Pick flex .5 ppr:

Funchess vs PHI
McKinnon vs GB

Having been burned the last couple years I would want to see another good game from McKinnon first. Funchess has a great matchup and is red hot. I'd start him, even though it's a lovely Thursday game.

----

Full PPR, pick 2

Jarvis Landry @ ATL
Pierre Garcon @ WAS
Demaryius Thomas vs NYG

Leaning Landry and Garcon because I'm worried Denver/New York will be over by the end of the 1st quarter.

I don't either really, but Landry has scored 10+ every week despite having Cutler throw the ball to him. Demaryius is coming off a 2 point stinker.

Definitely feel the best about Garcon. Will flip-flop on Landry/DT for the rest of the week :sigh:

With Eagles OT Lane Johnson out, I think the Carolina defense (which has gotten that team to 4-1) beats up Wentz tonight which will let the Panthers have more time of possession.

Alshon - Wentz spreads the ball around too much and if he takes pressure tonight like I think he will, he'll just dump it to Ertz.
Pierre Garcon / Demaryious Thomas - Both are positional receivers at this point making them more valuable in PPR.
McGuire - Splitting time with Matt Forte. Only a PPR play to me.
Fuller - He would be my second choice after Funchess. They are equal in value to me but the Eagles have given up the 2nd most passing yards, while Cleveland is 23rd.

Thanks. No McKinnon love? I'm in the boat of let him produce another game or two before I play him but curious if you think the same.

I like him better in PPR obviously but I think I need to see more of him before I commit. He clearly looks like the better back compared to Murray but it was against a beat up Chicago team. I feel the same way about him as I do with Aaron Jones on Green Bay. Aaron played against a Sean Lee-less Cowboys defense and I'm convinced anyone would have looked good back there. I'd see if McKinnon gets consistent goal line work before you start him.

A little cross-country, gentlemen?

1 PPR, do I go ahead and play McCaffrey tonight vs. PHI or does Aaron Jones (@ MIN) have one more week to run wild before Montgomery comes back to turn things into a timeshare? I realize Montgomery's role this week isn't 100% clear yet and since I'm usually risk-averse I've got McCaffrey slotted in there at the moment. (Other options: Gore @ TEN, Cohen @ BAL)

You probably won't know if you can snag Stafford before tonight right? If so I'd stick with Wentz. I'd be weary of waiting on Mariota without having a monday night replacement for him

1 PPR, need 2 WR and 1 FLEX

Fitzgerald v TB
Rishard Matthews v IND
Tyreek Hill v PIT
Kamara v DET
Ellington v TB

figure fitz is unbenchabke and mariota seems to like rishard, and i figure kamara has best upside at flex but ellington has potential against tampa (other two rbs are gordon and demarco)

I'd go Fitz and Tyreek with Kamara. Rishard would be a basket of hope without Mariota's injury and there's no guarantee he (Mariota) will play. Hill's hammy issue seems less serious than Mariota's. Ellington probably won't put up last week's numbers and now will have AP leeching touches. If the Cards felt comfortable with Ellington, they probably would not have grasped for AP.

Gonna chime in and say AP's role probably has little bearing on Ellingtons role honestly.

Ellington is the 3rd/passing down back and AP won't be sniffing those.

edit: Arians already came out and flat out said AP won't be touching 3rd downs.

All 3 are close, but I think Pryor has the edge over the others. Fuller may have injury risk, and is the WR2 against Cleveland, who inexplicably are the best in the league at yards allowed to WR2s (possibly because of how wide open WR1s are). And Indy can cover WR1s now that Vontae Davis is back.

Playoffs are no big deal,
don't have a crap attack.
0 PPR.

My WRs are a mess, and with Dez on a bye, I am forced to pick between:

Snead vs. Det
Jaron Brown vs. TB

Also, I may as well ask. Yahoo projections are projecting Andre Ellington to have more than 3 points over Frank Gore, but Gore has been consistently good the past 4 weeks:

Gore vs. Ten
Ellington vs. TB

I am leaning towards Brown and Gore.

I can't blame you for choosing Brown, but I think Snead has the higher upside. Also, Brown saw a significant drop in snaps last week, specifically to the other Brown. Ellington has such a better matchup this week than Gore.

I'm pretty high on Buck Allen right now after reading that the bears give up a lot points to rbs. West is most definitely out. Tho ASJ and Will Fuller are interesting options. Still, leaning Buck for ya.

I don't know. I have concerns about Fuller's usage. He had 6 targets his first productive week, but last week only had 3. I'm not sure he can get 2 tds on 3 targets consistently. Especially when one of those was a 48 yarder. Wouldn't knock someone for starting him though. He's a good footballer.
