No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.
Well I figured I'd put up a quick thread so we don't get confused with the Week 6 thread.

Sit/Start Thread Codex:

1. DON'T SIT YOUR STUDS!! Unless it's Thursday Night. Then maybe sit them. Maybe.
2. Note your league's scoring: PPR? 4 or 6 pt TDs? ESPN vs. Yahoo? etc.
3. Keep it short.
4. Try to answer other people's questions. That way everyone gets some feedback.

10 man, 1 PPR league. Big 100 yard bonuses. I can start two. Bolded is who I have in place now.

LeSean McCoy
Allen Robinson

John Brown
Allen Hurns
Stefon Diggs (This would take some convincing on your part)


John Brown is playing Baltimore. Enough said. Allen Robinson is semi-hurt, but Buffalo's secondary gives up lots of points and yards to receivers. McCoy has Jacksonville, whose defense is atrocious.. Honestly, I'm not sure I can pick wrong here.

And just to brag, I have to choose between them because my other slots are Freeman, Foster and Hopkins. Why yes, I am in first place and the points leader by about 100 points. Thank you for noticing. :D (Also got Dalton and Kelce)

To be fair, the Bills do well against WR1's, they tend to give up the points to the WR2. As evidenced last week when they shut down AJ Green but allowed Marvin Jones to have a big week. May consider firing up John Brown over A. Rob as Baltimore is allowing the 2nd most fantasy points to WR's, but it's hard to bench A. Rob.

These are both difficult but I like Wilson because it seems he's figured out how to use Graham finally, even though it's a Thursday road game.

For the WR, Cooper is #1, and then probably Snead since he wouldn't have to deal with Vontae Davis presumably. But you probably want to ask someone who is more knowledgeable about the Colts defensive tendencies.

Good call on the Revis action. I think it is easier to bench Robinson for Brown, considering the matchup's for both and injuries. I'm gonna go with Brown.

so yeldon is finally practicing again today. But with a bad matchup (BUF) and potentially a reduced workload... Should I consider starting cmike over him?

Agreed in 0ppr, but you know there's a much larger range of outcomes with cmike than someone like riddick - if you need safe/floor points for the matchup, I might look elsewhere

Blount and flip a coin. CMike is a huge gamble since we haven't seen how he will actually be used yet, but has a lot of upside if he actually sees a lot of work.

I would wait a week on CMike and roll with Yeldon if news points to Yeldon being able to handle a full load. If he might be limited, gently caress it, roll out CMike.

I'd take Yeldon if he can go. If not, Blount. And Witten for flex should do well cause the Giants secondary is a dumpster fire.

Leaning Charmander. Baldwin is bleh, I love Boldin getting a ton of targets but it's against Seattle, and it seems like Reid likes Charcandrick plus Maclin is out.


Also could use some Add/Drop advice. I drafted Bishop Sankey but have never used him and am ready to set him free (currently I have him, Gore, Yeldon, and CWest, rip Jamaal). Are any of the following worth snagging instead:
