0.5 PPR, down 14. I have Morris in flex Should I use MVS instead and pray that he has like a 20 point game and Adams has a 5 pointer or gets hurt in the first quarter?

This is very sad and desperate question

I don't like the look of it...
Need to pick someone for my Flex spot, 14 person league, 1 PPR.

NYG WR Sterling Shepard vs ATL

OR

JAC RB TJ Yeldon vs HOU



Experts say to start Shepard, but lol Eli Manning and the Giants O. My gut says start Yeldon but he's going against a tough Houston D.

There is also a small possibility that I could start Latavius Murray if Dalvin Cook is still a no go.

What do?

In a 2000 budget Ito Smith went for 500 this morning and the Indianapolis defense was 400 and I'm assuming that's before Derek Anderson was added haha. Desperation is setting in.

Full disclosure I bid 200 on Ito Smith so I'm just salty.

i am in a 2QB league where one guy spent the last half of his budget on DA and Peterman this week just to make sure he'd have 2 QBs

which means he outbid me for DA which pisses me off because thanks to stupid loving Ryan Tannehill's stupid loving injury i am going to be down to one QB this week because Jared Goff is on bye. My opponent is in the same situation on me and beat me to picking up Lamar Jackson as a long-shot to pick up a few spare points

I now have a bid in on Taysom Hill.

Am I doing this right?


I'm also thinking to dump a WR and/or RB to get another money tier 1 guy if someone has the need. But I'm feeling pretty good about my running backs going into the second half of the year. Wanna try to dump David Johnson and WR for a better back.

The times we live in where there is a legit question on whether you should bench Demaryius Thomas for Ito Smith and it actually make sense to start Ito Smith.

frt, Ito is riding a 3 game TD streak, and really he should be in line for another so I feel like his floor is higher. DT's ceiling is higher, but is also more risky. I'd probably roll Ito as well.

:agreed:, think it depends on whether your matchup demands more risk for a higher ceiling or not.

Yahoo 12 team 1PPR

QB: Dalton @ KC, Rivers v TEN

WR: Hopkins @ JAX, Jones Jr. @ MIA, Agholor v CAR, JJSS (bye), Kearse v MIN

RB: CMC @ PHI, Yeldon v HOU, Jones (bye), I Smith v NYG, Collins v NO

Flex: Coleman v NYG

TE: Watson @ BAL

K: Elliot v CAR

DST: HOU @ JAX

JJSS being on a bye puts me in a bind. I grabbed Kearse just to stash him based on Enuwa's injury. I don't feel like I have any real good options at WR2; Jones Jr. has the highest projected points but kind of a poo poo match up. In fact all my available WRs don't have good match ups. What's the play here to make the best of a bad situation?

I grabbed I. Smith as a stash given Freeman's IR placement.

Snead IV just went this morning or else I'd have grabbed him as a streaming option this week.

Edit: forgot Collins

I like the starters as you've outlined them.

Can't decide on my own QB but I'm hoping it's just a case of both matchups being good enough where they should each get me 20 pts:
Andy Dalton at KC
Jared Goff at SF

Standard QB scoring. It's hard to avoid playing against KC's defense, especially since Goff has had to lean on Gurley a lot lately and Dalton seems to be making good use of his weapons.

Hyde, the good thing about Tampa Bay getting out to an early lead is that they won't be able to stop even a peewee offense.

Or Powell if you're still iffy, he probably has the best floor.

Bye weeks finally starting to add up!

I need 1 RB and 1 FLEX out of this mess in 0.5 PPR, don’t need anyone to break the bank just put up an average score:

Adrian Peterson
Crabtree

Jordan Howard
Peyton Barber
Keelan Cole

Think Crabtree’s got a decent floor because of targets. Sitting Howard hurts but looks like he’s lost it to Cohen and I don’t know if I trust Barber yet.

Hey you guys!!
edit: ^^^^^ I am in agreement with your choices, except your RBs I'm not familiar enough yet to comment on them.

My bench is a little messed up because I'm coming off some byes and haven't been able to decide who's worth picking up or who to give up for the pick-ups. This is a 10-team standard league. I've been running with Brees and Lutz most the season and they've served me pretty well, but this week at least, I'm thinking my new pick-ups are going to be better. However, I don't know enough to determine for the rest of the season. Also, need help determining what to do with my RB, WR, and TE positions. Here's where I'm currently at:

QB: Winston vs Cle, Brees vs Bal
RB: McCaffrey vs Phi, Breida vs LA, Mack vs Buf (Flex), Barber vs Cle, Fournette vs Hou (probably still injured)
WR: Goodwin vs LA, Boyd vs KC, A. Brown (bye), Landry vs TB
TE: OJ Howard vs Cle, I can pick up Engram vs Atl or Uzomah vs KC on the waiver wire
K: Zuerlein vs SF, Lutz vs Bal
Def: Colts vs Buf

Some names on the waiver wire are
RB: Powell, Johnson, Thompson, Lewis, Ekeler
WR: Davis, Robinson, Kirk, J. Brown, Wilson

edit 2: Also, I picked up Zuerlein and Colts based on stuff I've heard from podcasts and the forums, but I'm not sure why they are expected to do really well. Can someone explain the reasoning, please?
