So I need WR help for tonight's game.

I have Adam Thielen, Cooper Kupp, OBJ, and Alshon Jeffery.

I'm going to sit Jefferey, but now I'm waffling between him and OBJ.. help!

and Philly is really, really bad at defending WR1s. You can't bench OBJ unless his legs fall off.

I meant that the giants are bad in decent weather they're probably going to be superbad in the rain. yes I believe the giants will be affected by the rain more than the eagles. The eagles seem like a professional team, I'm a dolphins fan so my judgement may be clouded.

Sorry, that wasn't supposed to be directed at any specific person. :) There's been a lot of weather talk in multiple threads.

Saquon Barkley is going to drop 30 points against me this week.

Rain doesn’t have nearly as big an impact on QB/WR performance as wind does, specifically wind around the 15 mph mark (sustained, not gusts). Some sports or fantasy writer did some respectable background research and wrote an article that was posted here at some point.

What about extreme cold? I feel like wind and cold are recipes for bad output from qbs and wrs?

Fuller may not play which would make this decision very easy. If he does I'd probably roll Sanders, Fuller, Sanu.

Yikes. Valdes-Scantling if GB is missing multiple receivers, Anderson otherwise. I wouldn't take anybody against the Bears coming off a bye, Dallas is pretty good against the pass, and I don't trust Lamar Miller even against Buffalo.

I’m agonizing about starting Tyler Boyd over Chris Godwin.

They both have good matchups and I have a good feeling about both of them but I guess I just want to see Jameis actually do it before I start him.

The problem with Valdes-Scantling is GB plays Monday so I won't know ahead of time :negative:

Ugh, that is rough. Anderson against Indy isn't really a bad play though, even though he has only really had one good week.

My opponent had Barkley and Clement go last night, so I need to look at who my highest-upside WRs are. Who are the most likely ones to go off here? Bold are my current choices.

Calvin Ridley vs TB
Keke Coutee vs BUF
Michael Crabtree @ TEN
Dede Westbrook @ DAL

Buffalo is decent against the pass but apparently they give up a ton to slot receivers, which is where Coutee is most likely to play, so I'm leaning in that direction.

I vote Boyd - they're playing Pitt who has had a pretty terrible defense so far this season plus they're a division rival.

I have the same decision (plus Enunwa). I'm going with Boyd.

Should I pick Jameis Winston (@ATL) off the Waiver Wire for a one-week stream or stick with my current QB starter Phillip Rivers (@CLE)?

Would probably drop Frank Gore to get Winston.

Mike Williams @ CLE
Quincy Enunwa v IND

Williams has the better matchup, Enunwa has the better track record, Crowell seems very Q, and I feel like there's no way I want to run out two TEs ever (Brate has the TE slot this week.) (I should have played Clement, dammit.)

Im streaming Winston this week over Cousins with the potential of keeping him ROS. He was the top QB last 4 weeks last season.
