My end of bench stuff (only 4 bench slots) IS Lewis and Thompson lol

Then disregard. I wouldn't cut either of them.

I dont believe in Do Not Draft lists because there is always value in a guy if he falls far enough in a snake or is cheap enough in an auction. But Leonard Fournette is making me re-evaluate this policy.

I had McKinnon and McCoy on mine and they fell so far as to be "worth it" in one league.

Missed two weeks, played 24 snaps, and was out again with the same injury. The Jaguars are playing the long game on the season, especially given that Yeldon and Grant did fine with Fournette gone. Two weeks and a reinjury so bad he was ruled out midgame tells me the Jags should be more cautious the second time around. That means at least three weeks. The fourth week is a London game, which they will probably leave him home for just to play it safe. Then it's their bye. I doubt we see 4nets until week 10.

New rule of thumb for me this year is keep a backup an extra week past the starter's return date. I would still have Yeldon right now

Never draft running backs from Detroit or the Jets. Never draft WR or RB from the Patriots.

Melvin Gordon is too valuable in PPR. You'll need more than Cook in this trade or just say no.

Ok, is it time to drop Doyle? TEs are very slim pickings, but I don’t think he’s worth a stash at this point. I have Watson who has been fine, but is on a bye this week so I need to address this situation. Swaim is available in my league (again, slim pickings) and was going to drop Doyle for Swaim.

I mean if you have an IR slot, keep Doyle. But he's probably not playing this week so if you don't have one, drop him. I think Ebron has overtaken him anyways.

So in my work league, I just beat the biggest poo poo talker in the group. Today, I had to put a stack of papers on his desk. On each paper is a post it note. As he reads through the stack of papers, it reads out the speech Batman gives Superman in The Dark Knight Returns. I can't wait to see his reaction.

For those not as nerdy as me, the speech is..

I want you to remember, Clark. In all the years to come, in your most private moments, I want you to remember, my hand, at your throat, I want you to remember, the one man who beat you.

Nothing more fun than being in leagues where people get creative with trash talk.

We do have IR, but we can’t throw players on there until they are designated IR. So I guess I’ll need to drop something to grab an actual TE. I’m thinking of keeping Watson (but he’s on bye) and dropping the LAC DST as I’m starting HOU. How’s that sound?

I actually think RoJo is a good add, and I think he'll take that job going forward. Taylor is probably my drop there but Garcon and Stills are garbagemen too.
