In mine not only do I lose my £10 entry but the overall worst player has to wear a ballerina outfit on a night out in Glasgow. I'm the only englishman playing in a group of scots, I'm also 6'9", losing is not an option for me.

Christ and I thought I had it bad.

Seriously though this is awful, how did I get here?

Thoughts on FAAB for Lindsay? Since I'm so hosed and basically have to land some upside backs I'm thinking 15%.

So it's my wife's first year playing fantasy football in our work league. 14 team 1PPR league. She's got the number 1 waiver which doesn't reset. Any of these worth burning it on? I'm giving her advice here and there so that next year she basically knows what the gently caress to do. RB is a wasteland. I've suggested she shop Golladay or Jordy for a RB if possible since she has a ton of WRs.

Brandon Cooks is available so is Josh Gordon and maybe AJ Green. Was thinking maybe flipping Fournette straight up for Green if they'll take it or maybe selling high on Adrian and trying to get Gordon or Cooks? Thoughts?

I wouldn't. Your RBs behind Gordon are uninspiring, I wouldn't be shocked if AP was your clear cut RB2 by the end of the year. You don't know that you'll get any usable fantasy weeks out of Morris, Mack, or Ekeler. Ertz was drafted around the RB#20 or so going by Fantasy Pros ADP, and I think it's fair to say week 1 has bolstered AP's case of being around there, meaning it definitely isn't some slam dunk. Kittle looks to be a totally fine TE1 (though of course Ertz would be an upgrade), so it isn't like you're desperate for an upgrade there.

Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's Jimmy T.
Currently have Jack Doyle as my starting TE but the following players are on the wire and I am wondering if they are worth grabbing instead. Half-PPR, 12-team.

Jared Cook

Also, as the Fournette owner, which RB would you grab to back him up? I have never been impressed with Yeldon, even though he is the obvious choice.

Ertz plays a more prominent role in the offense than Kittle.

49ers were playing a team with great secondary defenders, which explains Kittle's increased role.

AP will not be good for an entire NFL season.

He'd be upgrading TE to a for sure productive player by losing some depth at RB. If I had Freeman and Gordon, I'd mash yes so hard to get Ertz it's not even funny.

Klopp's 13pts clear thanks to video ref

Just been given the opportunity for a trade (which is like, the first time this has happened in a league that's been going three years).

One guy is holding three of the rookie RBs:

Kerryon Johnson
Sony Michel
Rashaad Penny

and he's looking to trade one of them for a WR. I've got Conner and a bunch of RBs I'm not hot on, so I'm looking for a bit of insurance if/when Bell comes back. My thinking is that when that happens I have a rookie about ready to blow up a la Kamara last year.

My team is currently looking like this:



and it's a 0.5 PPR league.

I'm thinking of offering Michael Crabtree for Kerryon Johnson. Does that sound fair/reasonable? Should I go for Sony Michel instead (he's a Pats fan so always favours them)?

Yeah I think Kerryon is the RB to own out of that group, especially if the other guy is a Pats fan. I fell asleep during the game, but I guess Blount got hurt. I think Kerryon gets more run since Abdullah sucks rear end.

Package up anyone and everyone else to get a low end RB2 (like a Chris Thompson or Duke Johnson - could buy low now on Duke).

Depending on league size, I'd even move Watson to someone who still believes he will bounce back for a lower end QB and RB that will actually score more than 0 points.

Watson for Duke straight up? Unfortunately not much quality out there for QBs, Trubiski or Fitz is the tier I'm seeing.

Seems like it'd be a net value wash but my RB1 is Tarik Cohen sooo.

I'm sorry but this is a pretty amazing series of assumptions. It's just as easy to explain that Kittle's role is a function of the chemistry that he and Jimmy G have developed combined with an offensive scheme that loves athletic tight ends, there's no guarantee that AP will degrade (just look at Frank Gore), and I'm not convinced that Ertz is an absolute upgrade given the change in offensive coordinator for Philadelphia.

I threw Kittle + Alfred Morris for Ertz back at him. I'll see if he takes that. 50/50 chance.

But, because redraft trades aren't enough for me anymore, now I have DYNASTY trades to worry about 🤪

quote:

My Derek Carr ($48) & Tarik Cohen ($32) & Zach Ertz ($122) for Alvin Kamara ($200) or Julio Jones ($156)

Not wanting to ruin my depth, what little I have, but I figure Wentz is probably gonna be back next week. I like what I'm seeing from Phillip Lindsay. And I think, despite Premium TE scoring, I spent too much on Ertz even though he's my boy. I'd love to be able to roll out Julio, Evans, TY or Kamara, Gordon, Howard.

Hate getting rid of Ertz, but thinking Jonnu Smith might return a lot of value. Especially at $1, lol.

"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

I got a trade offer late last night:

Their:
Allen Robinson
Derrick Henry

My:
Dalvin Cook

This is obviously not a good trade, but I took a look at their roster and they’re clearly desperate for a RB (starting Henry and Kerryon Johnson with Carson, Penny, and Wilkins on the bench), and in addition to Cook, I’ve got Zeke, Breida, Marlon Mack and Ingram.

If I countered with the same offer but replacing A-Rob with Devante Adams, would I be screwing myself? He’s got AB as his WR1 but Dev would easily be WR1 for me.

Half PPR league, 1QB/2RB/3WR/1TE/1FLX/1DST

QB: Kirk Cousins
RB: Jay Ajayi, Todd Gurley, Adrian Peterson, Carlos Hyde, Tarik Cohen
WR: AJ Green, Emmanuel Sanders, Stefon Diggs, Alshon Jeffery, John Brown, Kenny Golladay
TE: Tyler Eifert

So my opponent rejected my offer of John Brown and Tarik Cohen for Josh Gordon. She countered with two offers:

1. Send Carlos Hyde and Kenny Golladay to received Josh Gordon.
2. Send Stefon Diggs and Kenny Golladay to receive Josh Gordon and Cooper Kupp.

I already rejected the second trade outright; Golladay looked great against the Jets in spite of Stafford looking terrible, and Hyde is a serviceable RB2. I'm wondering if there are any alternatives I should trade. So I have some questions:

1. Do I even need Josh Gordon? I feel like he's a good player to have on my team since I'm not required to start him and yet if he shows upside it would be a great option.

2. If I can use Josh Gordon, who should I target to sell?

3. I'm hoping to grab George Kittle or Jared Cook off the waiver wire. In that case would you drop Tyler Eifert, or drop Tarik Cohen and stash both?

How worried should I be about Philly defense this week @TB? They did well week 1, but TB destroyed New Orleans defense last week, so I don't like the matchup.

Usually I stream defenses, but I was thinking about trying to stick it out with a team for a little while this year. Week 2 already has me nervous and rethinking that, though.

edit: I should notice Dallas vs. NYG is available.
