I sure am looking forward to starting McGuire and Jamaal Williams in my one championship matchup. Unless Ware is out again, and I can plug Damien Williams back in. Or, god forbid, McCoy is active, I could play him.

I know this isn't strictly the right thread for this, but has anyone here tried myfootballnow? It's a free web-based football simulator like football manager but for American football instead of un-American football.

With fantasy season winding down it seems like it'd be a good way to pass those cold dark summer days without football, and it looks like one could even start a goon league.

Who are your other WRs? I’d seriously consider finding a place for Alshon. Foles loves him.

Yeah, It's just that I only need 2 RBs, 2WRs and one flex, so I have CMC, Kamara, MT, TY and Mack over Alshon.

Yeah I think Mack is a must start this week. To me it comes down to Alshon vs TY and I'd probably lean Alshon for a combination of health and avoiding an Indy stack reasons, but they're all good options.

How'd you play with with picking 3 of Gurley, Chubb, Mack and Lindsay? Assuming Gurley plays, of course.

Hmm maybe Mack over Mixon then? RB/RB/FLEX to fill and i've got Cook Mixon Chubb lined up currently, Mack and David Johnson on the bench. PPR...

my opponent has the Browns def so maybe I bench Mixon so i dont double-lose if he has a bad game... plus i keep getting updates that he's nursing these little injuries

Jeeze, talk about RB riches.

Ben I guess Lindsay might be the bench but if there's any indication that Gurley won't get his full complement of snaps I'd feel comfortable starting the other 3. That game has blow-out and rest Gurley potential.

Fast Luck you're so deep that Mack might actually be the bench guy. Feels like you both have 4 Top 12 plays.

In standard, I've got to bench one of Gurley, Lindsay, Derrick Henry, or Mack. Feels like it should be Henry or Mack, and I feel stupid benching Henry after the last two weeks despite his earlier season performance, especially when Mack hasn't been super consistently good either. But the Giants are so bad, so idk.

So this is me in the championship match on the left. I was 3rd in the regular season and the bottom seed of our playoffs has gone the distance and made it to the final. I'm feeling good even with Juju getting tagged as questionable today. And I just picked up Fairbarn last week.

Yah im in an active work league whjere multiple people come by my desk every day to poo poo talk but they seem kind of bad at this really. For example I was nurturing my waiver rank for a key moment and then someone dropped Joe Mixon during his two-week absence, so I pounced...and nobody else even put in a claim. I learned about the Hyde to Jacksonville trade from the Hyde owner complaining in the yahoo fantasy app league chat and then looked and no one had added Chubb yet. And so on.

I picked up Josh Allen to backup Drew Brees solely to add an additional smokescreen. I'm only putting in my Saturday guys on Saturday, too. This is war :getin:

Do TEs get like negative points per reception? Not in any standard leagues but man those projections are real low compared to other positions, haha.

How? They are now down two TEs, both of their competent wide receivers, and their starting QB. Driskel is awful. The Browns are motivated to crush Hue.

What I’m saying is the Browns D/ST is a great play.

Haha well Brate is a mostly bust TE, and he only gets like 4 targets if that. I think by this point in the thread we all appreciate that the TE position is garbage. I only have two because I picked up the other one on a hope and prayer to help myself and always screw over my opponent last week... of course I ended up starting the player that got fewer points.

I’m going Williams and McGuire there.

Never in a million years would I ever have thought Jamaal Williams and Elijah McGuire would be better plays that Lenny and Evans but here we are.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

edit: to be fair I’m super high on McGuire in general.

But still like the Williams over Lenny decision either way.

Ok my guys with Ware out I have some issues. 16-team standard league, flex needed.

I could roll out:

Breida (ankles, vs. CHI)
Mike Williams (vs. BAL, sounds like Keenan Allen will play), or
Josh Reynolds (@ARI).

I also guess I could add Zach Zenner (Kerryon on IR), Kenny Stills (uh home against JAX I guess), or the glory play of CJ Anderson if Gurley doesn't go.

Welcome to the championship.
