Supposedly on Reddit theres a thread about Christian Watson's sister tweeting she is flying in to see the Thursday night game.

So he has to be playing right?

My only concern is next week playing the Rams.
One of my leagues has Colts, Browns, Bengals, & Steelers all available and I'm trying to decide which one to stick with for a while.

Garrett Everett appears to be averaging the same or close to Musgrave as well

I’m not sure what the state of the Chargers is, though, but given that I think their HC is on the chopping block, I’d imagine Musgrave is going to be more consistent yes?

I’m honestly not sure if I keep Taysom Hill and drop Everett or vice versa

Everett has the problem of competition from Donald Parham, whereas Musgrave (or Schultz) really has the job to himself. Everett is also getting low value targets between the 20's whereas Parham seems to sub in in the red zone and catch TDs. I would rather have Musgrave's situation. And again, he arguably should have 2 TDs already. If he did people would be falling over themselves to add him.

I'm not really interested in Taysom's bullshit tbh. Maybe any given week will be the one the Saints feel like giving him 10 carries and 5 pass attempts :iiam: But when they don't feel frisky he's a zero, he gets like 1 target a game as a "tight end"

That’s low but edge rushers don’t really rack up tackles. Myles Garrett has 7 so far, TJ Watt has 9. Maybe Reddick plays less snaps than those guys in Phillys rotation

If you're willing to hold both, they complement each other very nicely. I'm not personally particularly afraid of the Rams offense at the moment though, and Cleveland has a week 5 bye (worth keeping an eye on if they are dropped in your league), so if you need bench spots I'd just go Colts. Titans/Jags/Browns/Saints/Panthers/Patriots from weeks 5-10 is outstanding

That's a really good point. Probably can't do any worse than Jacksonville this week anyway, right?

Taysom's value is in sending trades offering "T Hill" and hoping your opponent has face blindness

How worried are y'all about TLaw? Do I need to be stashing a second QB? He was in single digits until basically garbage time, and I guess the report that Pederson took over playcalling in the second half was shot down.

Lawrence is having a lot of bad luck with receivers dropping balls or failing to get two feet inbounds. I don't think he's playing badly, Jags offense just isn't clicking so far. I'm gonna hold him at least one more week. If he has a stinker against Atlanta I'm gonna pick up a waiver QB.

this week, no. cleveland has both run d and pass d, whereas indy's pass d is iffier. hold both if possible.

unless you are in an idp league you should basically stream linebackers outside of like zaire, oluokun, and bolton. go for lb who will play against run-first offenses.

I'm about to spend over 400 of my remaining 600 on Achane, and I still think it'll get outbid. My RBs are in DIRE shape because I drafted Ekeler and Najee, so I'm willing to throw down as much as I can on the guy who will take over fully when Mostert is inevitably hurt.

I'm also going to break the bank for Achane but I just want to put it out there that he's like 5'9" 188. If he has to act as a traditional lead back for any amount of time he'll quickly be joining Mostert on IR. If when Mostert dies, Jeff WIlson might be back plus they have rookie Chris Brooks who is more of a grinder at 225 lbs. Or maybe they add Fournette.

It won't be BAD for Achane if Mostert goes down but I don't think he's gonna automatically slide into 20 touches a week.

I wish I had any bench space to do that. Have to choose one or the other unfortunately. Despite everything so far this season, I have a very hard time trusting the Cleveland defense.

Dec 23, 2002


you find it easier to trust the colts' d?

cleveland have allowed 20pt through 3 games. they are first in pressure rate. they have myles garrett. they are going up against baltimore's o-line that's been decimated by injuries. even then, jackson has been wonky at best. does baltimore even have a running back now? cleveland should just blitz and rush them and cause jackson to make quick decisions, which he hasn't been great at at any point in his career.

meanwhile, indy has been good, but they're not at that level. plus, the rams' o-line isn't anywhere near as bad as baltimore's right now. they did manage to score quite a few points on the ground against sf, after all.

i don't know, it's your team, but i'm taking cleveland 10 times out of 10 on this one.

You make very good points. My instinct is more emotional than anything else. Every time in the past I've trusted the Cleveland defense I've been burned. I'll put them at the top of my $0 waiver list for the week and hope for the best.

Also remember that the Dolphins are playing the Bills this week, with a significantly better defense. Achane is a good long term play, but he's not gonna get 200 yards and 4 TDs next Sunday.

depends how badly you need a wr. pretty set? probably not more than 10%. lost williams, have garrett wilson, and treylon burks isn't looking all too hot? ok, now we're talking 30+%.

I feel kind of hesitant on Palmer because the Chargers took a wr in the first round this year so you'd think they're going to want to work him in at some point. Someone who knows more about that team can feel free to correct me if Quintin Johnston has looked terrible, though.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

Anyone have opinions on Thielen? He’s put up some good numbers two weeks in a row and I’m thinking Dalton may favor him. Thinking of swapping McLaurin out for him since he’s just riding my bench all year.

He'll turn back into a pumpkin once Bryce is healthy again but in the interim he seems like a decent risk.

This year has been a blood bath and if you need a guy immediately Thielen and Palmer both seem like good options. If you’re the 1% of teams that haven’t lost like 3 starters already then stashing Johnston on your bench seems like a good idea

I just lost Mike Williams in my 12 team 3WR half ppr league and I already have Kupp on IR. I'm currently 3-0 and the points leader even though my team is 8th best accusing to fantasy pros.

This week my starting WRs are going to be Lamb, Evans, and Shaheed. The bench is Burks and Mims. Wondering if I should try a trade, but if Kupp is back next week then I'm probably good until bye weeks (which is immediately since Evans is week 5).

Was thinking sending James Conner for Ridley since he needs RBs. My other RBs are Aaron Jones, Mattison, Rachaad, Ford, and Spears.

Another similar target would probably be Pittman on a different team. Any thoughts?

I was going to pick up Dell last week again after originally drafting him but was too slow to add him as a FA since I wasn't sure who to drop. Would have solved my issues I think.

Similar situation, Mike Williams was my flex WR and was going to fill in number 2 on by weeks. My starters are JJ and AJB. My bench however is Tutu and Dotson, so pretty screwed if one goes down or on a bye. Trying this week on waiver wire to pick up either Thielen or Dell, but if I miss on those two who else should be out there?

Or should I look to trade a RB for a WR to the person that is currently first in the league, but had Chubb and Saquon as his RB and is now running Brian Robinson and Josh Kelley. I have Bijan and Tony P starting, with my bench being Pierce, White, Allgeier, and injured Montgomery. Think I could maybe pull Olave or Pittman off him for one of those?

You’re fine with Tutu and Dotson. I’d try to grab Tank Dell off waivers but I wouldn’t be scrambling to trade anyone if I didn’t get him.

Must be a small league. If you can trade White or Pierce for Olave, do so. I doubt that guy is that desperate, but you never know.

If your league let you get 2 top 5 RB's AND 2 top 5 WR's. Hell start sending out any offer and try to fleece them, it might work.


edit: Trying to consolidate a bit in my 1 PPR league and try to see if i can get an upgrade selling Mattison

Would giving up Mattison and Christian Kirk for Michael Pittman be too much?

RBs: Pollard, Gibbs, Mixon
WRs: JJ, Cooper, Meyers, MT, Shaheed

Would leave me thin at RB but i figured i'd be flexing Pittman or Gibbs.
