Take me to your Shida

I asked this in the regular thread but it's probably better suited for here

I need to snag a QB for Josh Allen's bye week. Geno, Jimmy, and Matt Ryan (the latter two because of matchups) seem to be the best options out there. Anyone lean any particular way? Standard scoring.

Trying to figure out who to pick up and start since Eagles D is off this week.

NYJ @ DEN
NE v CHI
DAL v DET

Those look good. Specifically Jets and Cowboys have my attention. Also a good mix of others on waivers if I should look elsewhere.

I'll preface by saying you are likely 100% fine going with the Jets because the Broncos offense is TRASH. But it's an away game which always gives me pause.

NE is at home for MNF. It's gonna be a bloodbath for Fields.

drat y’all appreciate ya. I think I’m rolling with NE but yeah, Jets would definitely be “safe” too. It just feels right to watch NE on Monday with them on my team. This means Justin Fields is going to tear them apart for 5 tds or something of course.

I would go for Jimmy G. The game is a 1pm against KC and that could easily turn into a huge shootout.

I put claims in for NE and NYJ. Lost out on NE but got NYJ and I'm happy with that.

I don't think you can go wrong with either. The flip side to being traumatised by so much Prime Time Broncos recently (not to mention completely bailing on any of their fantasy assets) is that I feel real good rolling with the Jets D this week.

PPR, pick 3
Aaron Jones @ WAS
JRob vs NYG
Kenneth Walker @ LAC
Tony Pollard vs DET

I'm leaning sitting JRob because he's scored like 15 points over the past 3 weeks since the other 3 have great matchups.

Same thing happened to me! I’m okay with it. I would have preferred NE maybe but the NYJ matchup is just so right and their defense has been on fire. I’m ready for this bye week!

lol my league had a full on bidding war on the NE defense. 10/14 teams bid on it.

I was the only one who bid on Taysom Hill so it shows where the priorities are

I have Taysom in my lineup right now, but I'm guessing Dalton suits up somehow.

Shootouts aren't exactly Jimmy's forte. I'd go Geno against a not good Chargers defence

I go Geno. I know he had an off week, but he still looks good to me. Plus, he has rushing upside for his floor.

A greater tragedy my eyes have never beheld
Need a flex in full PPR:

E. Benjamin vs NO
A. Pierce @ TEN

I'm actually leaning towards Pierce because I kind of need a homerun with the bye week hell and Benjamin didn't really impress against the not very good Seattle defense.

.5ppr flex:

Diontae Johnson @ MIA

Approximately 1% chance I choose the right one, all of them are within 1 point of each other on projections

Eagles D is out and I didn’t win the Pats with FAAB (someone spent like 11% on them).

Right now I have WAS v GB but am thinking about picking up BAL v CLE. The Browns run game is good but the Ravens are actually a solid defense.

I’m also looking at ARI v NO tonight since Thursday/Monday games are usually stinkers but idk if Arizona is actually that good of a defense. Their only big points have come from defensive TDs.

I miss my Eagles :(

Is NO available? Arizona's offense has been anemic lately. (Although they do get Nuk back)

They are, and trust me I know. I’m a sorry Conner owner. Problem is the Saints secondary is pretty miserable and they don’t get many sacks.

Jets are taken too. Giants are there though, as are the Bengals. I figure either of them has to be better than the Commanders.

With Marquise Brown out, yeah I think I'd be gambling on Nuk despite usually being on the "give the returning-from-injury/suspended guy a game to get back in the groove" side of things.

Another Nuk question. 0 PPR, need a flex.

DeAndre Hopkins v NO
Najee @ MIA
Zeke v DET

Good matchups all around. Generally don't like to start someone on their first game back, but Najee has been disappointing all season, and Zeke is splitting carries but was good last week and could be a good start this week against Detroit.

Hopkins would be my choice, has the highest ceiling there, but probably lowest floor.
