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

take me you ANIMAL posted:

Kendrick Bourne and Josh Downs are both on waivers, who should I try and target? After AJB, my wr depth that is not injured is Tank Dell(probably back this week)or Diontae Johnson. Gonna drop Pierce for one of them, he's not done crap all year, and I have three RB plus Monty ahead of him.

I was trying to make the same choice and I went with Downs. I’m trying to stay away from NE receivers. Their QB situation kind of sucks.

I too snagged the Eagles. Although somehow in their first matchup vs the commanders they gave up 31 points and went to OT :confused: Divisional games, lol. Hopefully they clean that up

In a 2QB, 0.5PPR league and trying to upgrade one of my QBs because it's pretty dire. I'm currently sitting on Howell, Stroud, and Watson for QBs, and the Burrow owner is interested in a trade.

I also have some other WR and RB pieces I could work with:

RBs: Taylor, Pollard, Aaron Jones, Spears, Hubbard
WRs: Hill, ARSB, Puka, Addison, Godwin


Thinking I'd start with an offer of:

Howell + ARSB for Burrow and going to Stroud + ARSB if they want a little bit more.

Am I overpaying? Underpaying? I'm finding it hard to price Burrow at the moment.

Is Mattison droppable or does he need to be rostered? Tank Dell got dropped back when he got concussed and now that he's reportedly coming back I want to grab him, and Mattison has just been so disappointing and seems to be losing carries to Akers. I have a bunch of injured guys on my bench so my option is pretty much just him, unless there's some clarity on the D'Onta/Roschon situation in Chicago soon. For reference my RB squad right now is JT, Rachaad, Mattison, Foreman, Roschon, Monty (Q), and Kyren (IR), and my WRs are a AJ, CeeDee, Palmer, Rice, Downs, and JJ (IR).

I sure hope not because after losing Chubb and Conner he’s my RB2!

I think he’ll still get fine work against weaker defenses but I wouldn’t expect more than 12-15 from him on a very good day.

Fields of glory shine eternal

Touches between Mattison and Akers are now 50-50 instead of Akers just spelling Mattison every once in a while. The Vikings don't have the kind of run offense to support two backs.

Mattinson sucked when he was the bell cow. Now he’s splitting carries. I can’t bring myself to drop him due to sunk cost fallacy but it’s definitely a defendable decision.

Hello, I lost by less than a point for the second time in one league, thank you Bijan!

Absolutely buried my nemesis in my other league though, feelin good about that Dustin Hopkins last minute pickup to slot in for Fairbairn’s Bye. Despite my team regularly putting up 130-160 points almost every week, I’m still firmly in second place with a 5-2 record and leading the league in points with 1,002 points for, to the 6-1 leader and reigning champion who hasn’t even broken 800 points yet because literally everyone except for me has completely poo poo their pants whenever they play his mediocre rear end team and it’s so infuriating :argh:

I have a league where my RB group is in shambles due to the deaths of Nick Chubb and JK Dobbins. I'm currently cycling between Rachaad White, Kareem Hunt, and Gus Edwards.

My current WR stable is Puka, Adam Thielen, DK Metcalf, Garrett Wilson.

I can trade Adam Thielen and Garrett Wilson for Saquon and Diontae. Not sure that Thielen > DK is a huge downgrade and I get a significant upgrade to RB's. I do that, right?

The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.
I'm reluctantly hanging onto Spears for the lottery ticket hope but in my heart I know that if Henry got raptured tomorrow the Titans would run him up the tackle box until he breaks.

If someone offered me JSN I'd probably jump at it.

I’m holding Spears everywhere but I fear he is going to be what Rachaad White was last year. A guy we hold all year waiting for the breakout and/or injury to the starter and it never happens. Or if it does the Titans suck so bad he is just like a low end RB2.

The same guy who offered me a bunch of lovely backups for Achane and Pollard sent me AJ Dillon for Spears tonight. lol. The Spears hype is making the rounds on the big podcasts and sites this week

Can I drop Purdy without feeling bad? He's going to be out this week, and then a bye, and I'm already carrying Burrow's dumb rear end. Short benches, IR spot occupied, would probably pick up an RB lotto ticket.

I didn’t even bother to reply and he “upped” his offer to Zack Moss. Which seems more fair but also just pointless to do. He has Henry and wants to handcuff him so this all still feels one sided to his benefit. And I am annoyed by all his dumbass lowball opening offers so screw it

Someone dropped TLaw. I don’t have much FAAB left, is he a must grab? I am just streaming the Goffs and Staffords of the world right now and picking the wrong guy every time

I'd rather have Goff. People talk about his home/road splits but two of those three games were against very good Baltimore and KC defenses, and that also conveniently overlooks a 350 yard, 2 TD showing at Tampa Bay. Meanwhile Trevor only just broke the 18 point mark, has only hit 280+ yards once, and has only thrown for more than one TD twice. He's just consistently mediocre.

frantically editing waiver claims thanks for the input. Clearly I have no idea what to do at QB this year after all my initial picks bombed

Unrelated, survivor pool. Chargers at home at -8.5 seem like such an obvious pick. But also, the Chargers can 100000000% lose to the Bears and maybe this is the trap game of the year… probably still gonna do it

Good call but I already used the Lions vs the Panthers in week 5

e: to avoid making this post 5 more times, I have used

Commanders, Giants, Patriots, Ravens, Lions, Rams, Seahawks

Most of the remaining players have burned some or all of Chiefs, Eagles, Bills, 49ers, Dolphins, Cowboys, so I feel pretty good. But it only takes one absurd upset as I well know. Chargers SHOULD get me another easy win and let me save the mega chalk teams. But if there is a team that is defined by losing dumbass games they should definitely win, it's also the Chargers, so :shrug:

Separate topic, just in case anyone was brain damaged enough to care. mcmagic is running away with the AFC East Sickos Only fantasy league. Where you can only roster guys who are in, or have ever been in, the AFCE. Tyreek Hill is so much better than anyone else that nothing else matters at any position
