I get your concerns about Thursday games, but I'd definitely go Olave here. Jacksonville's pass defense is iffy.

Goff was dropped to waivers yesterday. Thoughts on him vs Howell this week? Seems like a decent choice ROS too.

Goff hasn’t been great on the road IIRC, Baltimore is a bad matchup but he’s probably the best of the three ROS

Last place in my league so it's a must-win week for me. 1 PPR. Do I make any changes here? Specifically looking at WR and flex positions.



I'm not totally sold on Olave and Kirk and them both playing Thursday gives me very bad vibes. I'm thinking about swapping one out for Pickens and moving Evans into the flex. But at the same time, Pickens' matchup sucks.

Anyone have any input on this?

Since Monty is going to be out this week, I need to adjust my lineup. Currently I have

Waddle
Nacua

Jacobs
Monty

Kamara

I need to move Kamara into Monty’s slot and then choose a WR for my flex position.

Options are
Flowers
Reynolds
Jamo

I’m leaning towards Flowers, but I suspect the Lions are going to do a number on him and Baltimore’s o-line. Conversely, I’m not sure how many targets the other two would even get, comparatively. Jamo probably 5 or less, and Reynolds will depend on how open sun god is and how Gibbs is running the ball.

Now that Monty is officially out, need some advice.

I will admit I have updated my opinion on flowers from “probably getting smoked” to “potentially the main gun used in Sundays shootout”

I didn't think I needed any help this week, but with handsome Jimmy out, I'm trying to make a decision at flex.

Jakobi Meyers @ Chi
or
Rhamondre Stevenson vs. Buf

I was going all in on Meyers, but worried that he won't get enough targets, or just bad targets with Hoyer starting. Maybe I just wait until Sunday morning to find out Jimmy's status.

I guess benching Ridley was the right call. He's pretty frustrating I'm kind of waiting for him to have another big game so I can trade him for someone more consistent at this point.

It's looking like Reynolds won't even play, or be very limited. Najee might finally do something this week against the rams, and Edwards and Hill, like Quiet Feet said, is essentially fill two spots to get the output of one good RB. I feel like Zeke is unstartable this year unless Stevenson gets injured. I'd probably go Hill & Edwards, or Najee and Edwards. Hill & Edwards probably has a lower floor but lower ceiling.

Do I start L Thomas @ NYG or L Musgrave @ DEN in my 0.5ppr league?

I’m leaning toward Thomas, but musgrave has a higher projection. Only concern here is that the Denver defense will be bad enough that they’ll just throw to WRs instead of TEs

I think it’s gonna be Najee and Murray, Murray got a lot of work when Damien Harris went down and the Bills should shithouse the Pats

Denver is a good defense to play to fix an offense being terrible. I'd say Musgrave has the higher floor... at like 6 points he's a safety valve for Love from what I've seen but Thomas probably is more boom or bust.

If you have any Vikings, use one and Mason for your flex with CMC questionable.

Safe play is LaPorta assuming that CMC will play (he was a limited participant in practice today). If you want to take a chance then run Mason.
