Of course the week that I lose JJ I’m on the rear end-end of the waiver wire and miss out on all of the useful pickups

I'd take it. gloom posted:Would you trade Ken Walker for Davante Adams in half PPR? We start two WRs and two RBs. I'd rather have Davante personally

Today in “how the gently caress do yahoo waivers work?” Last week I dropped Roschon, because of course I did. Herbert seemed to have the job on lock and I needed a bench spot. So naturally Herbert gets hurt like a day later. I tried to put in a claim but got this weird rear end message like “cannot claim a player you dropped until the next waiver period runs”. So if I drop a guy in yahoo I can’t make a claim on him til everyone else has had a chance to and declined? That’s… something. I’ve had benches full of backup RBs all year, would be cool if one of them would ever be the right one lol.

Picked up KJ and replaced Jameson Williams with him and I feel good about it even if Jameson ends up doing things later.

Matt Zerella posted:Addison getting all the love and everyone's forgetting how many TDs Osborne stole for JJ last year. The thinking is that Addison is going to slot into JJ's role while Osborne is going to keep his same role. Osborne will probably get more targets than normal and might have a better game as Addison is no JJ, but Addison should get a lot more opportunities with JJ out.

It is a common mistake people do in fantasy. They assume the better player will just get more opportunities, ignoring the fact that Addison is better than Osborn, but still isn't getting more opportunities.

That’s… the way waivers work though. In the NFL if a team waives a player, they can’t get him back until he “clears waivers”, meaning no other team claims him. I agree yahoo rules are usually pretty stupid, but they got it right with this one.

Make sure you check waivers for K. Ingram in Arizona. IMO he's the one to have once healthy.

Personally, I’m grabbing Tony Jones once they move Achane to IR on NFL.com. (The other guy was picked up). Worth a week’s speculation and he looked decent in New Orleans.

Matt Zerella posted:He's been listed as #2 all year. This is a signal but teams act contrary to the depth chart all the time too. Like how many of us had even heard of Jaleel McLaughlin? He immediately got more touches than Perine when Javonte got hurt. It's not insane to think they like Demercado better even if Ingram gets the stupid "veteran deference" where he's higher on the depth chart and gets to play the first snap of the game. Demercado has also been getting third down work even when Conner was healthy. Not saying you're definitely wrong just that I don't think it's obvious who will be The Guy.

There's a lot of fuckery you can do with waivers to make it hard for other teams to pick up guys you don't want to roster. This rule looks like it's intended to prevent that fuckery

What I meant was, if you missed out on the big waiver pickup, and Ingram is in your FA pool, pick him up and let's see what happens.

Cowboys fan in my league just offered me a straight-up 1:1 trade of Jonathan Taylor for my Tony Pollard. Part of me is thinking SMASH but that's 2022 thinking. I kinda want to hold out one week to see a fully integrated JT first before deciding if I want him. Is this overly cautious?

Hi fellow Fantasy Goons, I have the Bengals defense, but they've been garbage this season. Should I pickup the Lions D for this weekend vs the Bucs? Options are pretty slim on the waiver wire, so any advice would be appreciated.

Since I lost JJ I managed to snag KJ in his spot. But also someone dropped Gabe Davis so I managed to scoop him up this morning and dropped Dotson. Now who should I start this weekend? The Bills are playing the Giants and I assume they want to bounce back from that ugly game in England.

They assume the better player will just get more opportunities, ignoring the fact that Addison is better than Osborn, but still isn't getting more opportunities. In this particular case the idea holds merit beyond generalized talent level, due to the shown preference to use Osborn in the slot and Addison as the outside deep ball threat. In PPR I wouldn't blame anyone from safely rolling with Osborn, but the yards per catch upside is really, really juicy for Addison.

I rostered Michael Wilson as a fringe breakout after his Week 4 performance. I’m wondering who is the guy to own on AZ, him or Demercado, with Conner on IR. I’m a Conner owner.
