As ridiculous as this sounds with the game he just had, Adrian Peterson is splitting time and James Conner is not.

Chris Thompson on the Redskins had a better game in PPR.

I'd like to take a moment here to talk about the magic of starting Thomas and Brown in 1 PPR.

very cool that the ghost of Brandon Marshall outscored literally every player I started this week in my main league. Is Phillip Lindsay worth the #1 overall waiver claim? It resets weekly (which is stupid) so I have no problem using it

I'd like to take a moment to blame everyone who told me to drop John Conner and Chris Carson off my dynasty team a few weeks ago because they would have no value whatsoever.

You are all to blame, not me. I am in no way responsible for my actions.

He had a great pre-season and has as good a chance as any of creating distance between himself and Royce.

I'm going to target ekeler, Lindsay, and Yeldon.

Probably not Javorius Allen.

Would Dorsett, Allison, or Snead be a better stash than Calvin Ridley?

I think Allison would be for sure. Not much use for a supposed WR3 who gets equal targets as the RB2. I don't think Julio will continue to get 19 targets a game, but I doubt many of those are going to go to Ridley at this point.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. It's a 14 team re-draft league so I went deep on the Ridley pick. Only got him for a $1 too. I think I'll snatch Allison over the other two since I own Edelman and Crabtree already.

I own him in 2 leagues, though they both have 22 man rosters. I'm going to hold him, I think.

You should still laugh at yourself for even entertaining the idea of starting him.

Also probably worth indicating in the sit/start thread that you would have to drop someone in order to start a guy you've listed. That weighs into the decision.

I had an open roster spot, friendo. And I’m fine with laughing at myself for considering it. I’ll just laugh harder at the people who actually did it. :)

I owned Tyreek since his rookie year because we get return yardage points. This is the first time I haven't owned him in any league. I feel like one of those Green Day fans who owned their first two albums before Dookie went 5X platinum.

Yeah, like, I'm not thrilled Kelce gave me nothing this week, but I can sit tight.

I'm more sad that I went up against a team with Conner, Brees, and Barkley. So Kelce doing well wouldn't have helped me much anyway.

Very much so. It's a shame that we can't flex a QB though. Luck got me a solid 59 points for my bench.

I got beat 162-89 so while I want to blame Le'Veon Bell I feel like maybe I should take a long look in the mirror first.

And replace Cam.

Nope. Chris Thompson won't be himself until November and is a 100% avoid.

I think that was the message delivered over and over again in this thread every time I tried to recommend him.

I still got my shares though :smug:

He literally said it himself, so it's not exactly an unreasonable take. That said I'm super excited for him, and even if I don't have him on any teams I hope he does great.

He had 18 and Jared Goff is on the waiver wire. Maybe I just need to pickup Goff as insurance.

What I didn't see was the Norv Turner influence I was hoping for.
