I think this is what I'm gonna do. I know it's the jets and as soon as I bench him Lockett will put up 30 but he's so much more miss than hit. I had Beasley and Davis both on my bench last week and it lost me my first round bye.

no I'm leaving deebo out the Washington defense has been too good and it's Lockett vs the jets.

Wild Card! Benched Akers because I didn't trust his usage on a short week against Belichik. I stand by that decision, but I need a 1PPR flex.

Corey Davis @ JAX
JK Dobbins @ CLE
Deebo Samuel v WFT
Miles Sanders v NO

Thats the order I'm thinking.
FWIW I'm starting Ridley and JuJu at WR, Cook and Ekeler at RB

Also 6 PaTd
Taysom Hill @ PHI
Ryan Tannehill @ JAX

I think I'm gonna ride Taysom one more week.

Davis and Tannehill stack

Why do you want to ride Taysom when Tannehill has outscored him every single week he's started?

edit: looks like Brown is playing, i'd still either roll the dice on Davis with Dobbins as a 2nd choice.

Made the playoffs in my 12 team 0.5 PPR money league. Julio Jones has been downgraded to Out, so now I need to fill my 3rd WR spot. Here are my options:

DJ Chark Jr. v TEN
Marvin Jones Jr. v GB
Laviska Shenault Jr. v TEN
Keke Coutee @ CHI

Tim Patrick is also available in FA.

I'm nervous about it being a Derrick Henry Game. Other than last week, the 2 QBs have been comparable. But, the last time TEN and JAX played, Tannehill threw 4 TDs. Good advice, thanks.

I'd go Coutee in a 1 PPR league, Watson is playing balls out and Coutee should see volume. Dobbins > Bernard for me if you decide to go with a RB, I've flexed Bernard a couple times in the last month and fuckkkkkk that offense without Burrow.

Rojo for sure but its tough after that. I think Id rather go Claypool. I don't see Mullens having a good game against Washington's pass rush.

Also, pick a terrible, terrible QB for my first-round playoff exit.

Matt Ryan @LAC
Mike Glennon v.TEN

Ryan theoretically has the better matchup but he's trash without Julio.

I wouldnt pick David Johnson either way but FYI he may miss the Chi game due to personal reasons.

If it were me I'd probably go with RoJo in your Flex spot. Tough to tell for the WR - I've been out of the loop a little due to earning a bye and the baby being needy.

I would stick with Thomas. After last week's performance, I would expect the football team to continue to look to get him involved. Alex smith loves throwing to tight ends. I also like his potential to be involved in a trick play or two with his history as a QB.

Interesting dilemma! In a vacuum I would start Claypool, but then you suddenly have a lot of eggs in Pittsburg's basket. IIRC, WRs on the same team tend to have positive correlation, and the same is true with RBs. So they tend to have good games and bad games together in groups (this isn't always true, obviously, but the correlation is there). So if the Steelers have a bad night offensively, you are going to lose the week, most likely.

Chark is going to get a ton of downfield targets - it's just a matter of converting them. The Titan's secondary is atrocious though, so I would bet that he catches at least one long bomb on Sunday. I would probably go with Chark.

EDIT: Guide to correlation: https://www.reddit.com/r/dfsports/comments/3l9bwa/correlations_what_the_data_actually_says/

Well, I already got this answered but now that Miles Gaskin is out with COVID, I gotta pick someone to join Robby.

Conner is the obvious answer to me, but wondering if I'm missing something with the others. Nelson Agholor and Alan Lazard are also options.

All matches are either playoffs or a win is needed to get into the playoffs, so I am probably seeking more feedback than necessary. If you don't have an opinion on everything no need to answer all 3.
Pick my QB because I have been getting it wrong the last few weeks (PP1st):

Murray @ NYG
Herbert vs ATL

I am leaning Murray here, cannot get blanked like Herbert did last week and ATL defense has not been as bad since they fired Quinn.

Also, am I overthinking this (0.5PPR), pick 2:
Hines @ LV
Conner @ BUF
Bernard vs DAL

Conner seems like an obvious play, but he has been fairly disappointing this year with dud games against favorable matchups with CIN and DAL and getting <60 yards or so in half of his games. Bernard has been disappointing due to how bad the Bengals are, but they have not had a matchup as favorable as DAL lately, and Hines is kind of random when it comes to touches but he has had some big games and is getting some end zone work with a favorable matchup. I am almost leaning toward benching Conner but I wonder if that is just outsmarting myself.

Also, standard scoring, pick 1:
Lamb @ CIN
Smith-Schuster @ BUF

Leaning Lamb here, it feels like JJSS is 3rd behind Johnson and Claypool when it comes to targets and Dalton has been targeting Lamb a decent amount though that has not been worth much the last few weeks.
