Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

Pick 3:

Chase Claypool (v. Jaguars)
Christian Kirk (v. Seahawks)
DK Metcalf (v. Cardinals)
Tee Higgins (v. Football Team)

Call me crazy, but I'm thinking of sitting Metcalf. His last four performances against the Cardinals have not been good.

DK has only played the Cardinals three times; twice as a rookie. I wouldnt read that much into it. He had a bad week last week getting covered by Jalen "Giant Baby" Ramsey and had a bad game against the Cardinals earlier this year, but he's still #4 in WR PPR scoring. Dont sit your studs. If it were me I would sit Kirk or Claypool because Metcalf & Higgins' consistent production should play - Higgins did great last week against the stingy Steelers. Kirk has been targeted a lot lately and has scored a bunch of TDs so I might sit Claypool? Its a tough decision.

edit: The Steelers vs Jags game could be over by the end of the first quarter so Claypool may not get a lot of work, but again its really hard to say and I'm no expert :\

Similar conundrum here except swap out Lockett for Metcalf. I don't think I'd sit Metcalf - especially because that game's likely to be a shootout. I'm only sitting Lockett because of injury concerns.

FWIW, I've got Justin Jefferson as well so I'm going with a WR in the flex over Mike Davis and Duke Johnson. (Might swap out Kirk for Davis if CMC doesn't return.)

Got a couple of Hyde related questions, assuming Carson is out

no PPR

James Conner @ Jax
Carlos Hyde v Ari

Great matchup for Conner, but he's been trash the last couple of weeks in good matchups. Hyde is Seahawks RB so should get a lot of carries.

Half PPR

Hyde v Ari
Zeke @ Min
Chase Edmonds @ Sea

Zeke has been trash since Dak died, but Dalton back after a bye to get back on track. Edmonds had a huge game against Seattle last time and should be a high scoring game.

1 PPR, pick 1 TE:

Obviously leaning Jonnu but he's been averaging two targets a game the past few weeks while with Dalton back Shultz might get more looks, but I might be overthinking it?

The Steelers may curbstomp the Jags really hard, or maybe the Jags will go all Mr. Hyde and give them a hard time like they did for the Packers? If it were me I would be tempted to play Higgins over JRob in that situation, but I'm not sure and I cant honestly recommend sitting a stud like JRob even against the Steelers.

Bolded are my current starter selections, with room to add 1 FLEX. If I start Kirk I'd throw him in the WR slot to keep my FLEX options open.

Is he worth starting above the others? Things get muddled to me after my bolded selections. I do need a homerun though - I'm the underdog this week and currently 3rd place out of 10.

with Henry and Davis in your lineup I think flipping a coin on JRob or Tee is fine. As a fellow JRob owner, monitor his practice reports though, he was limited yesterday but could be rest day for him.

Kirk plays tonight so if you do go with him make sure to put him your WR spot instead of Flex

I would personally start Jefferson and AJ Brown.

I have another conundrum.

I need to pick three of:

Adam Thielen vs Dallas
Justin Jefferson vs Dallas
Diontae Johnson @Jax
Will Fuller vs NE

I am leaning towards sitting Fuller, which feels bad, but such is the problem with having too many good WRs, I suppose. I think all four guys are really close to each other on a weekly basis, but the first three guys on that list all have killer matchups, whereas Fuller does not, and he has been a little TD dependent this year. I could be talked into sitting Jefferson for Fuller, but that would also feel very bad with as many deep passes as Dallas is giving up.

There is downside to playing two MN WRs, though. If it becomes another Cook dominated game, they just won't get much opportunity.

I think I’d sit Jefferson or Claypool. Hill’s pretty familiar with the offense. Are you really comfortable starting someone else knowing Thomas has the ability to ball-out any given Sunday?

Similar question to the one I posed above, but with a caveat: Williams is going up against Indy, while Zeke has Minnesota. Indy’s clearly a worse matchup, and Williams isn’t even GB’s primary RB. All that said, if you still feel like they have a similar floor, considering Zeke’s potential this week, how pissed off would you be if Zeke was Zeke and you had him on your bench?

I feel like you’re both overthinking this a bit much, and I get it because uncertainty is a helluva thing, but DSYS.
