Kevin White saw more snaps than Jeffery. He might not be doing much just yet, but clearly the Bears want him to be a thing since he was on the field for 98% of the offensive snaps.

Also I'm not dropping West until Charles and Ware both prove they can be healthy for more than the first couple weeks.

For people in FAAB leagues, what sort of money did Cadet go for? My ugly deep roster dynasty league doesn't do waivers until Thursday morning just to be different, so be nice to know what sort of bids people were doing

Yeah who around here is in that 16 team league where you really could use 5 ppg from your RB2 if McCoy goes down, go ahead and get on that Gillislee bus

It's me, the guy in a 16 team dynasty league with 44 roster slots that put in a 20% bid on Travaris Cadet because maybe he'll get a few catches a game

With this news about Gates, I looked at the TE waiver wire in my league and learned it was rather sparse, so I got curious. In my 12-team league, SEVEN teams have two TEs rostered and two teams have THREE TEs. Ugh.

This is every league I've ever been in. Same with quarterbacks. Which is why I always draft backups, otherwise I'd end up stuck with cody kessler.

Inspector_666 posted:

Speaking of, if I've got Gates on one of my teams but the only FA options worth looking at (just going by PRK here) are Ebron, Walford, and James, should I bother worrying about it? I feel pretty secure with the rest of the roster.

gates has a pretty late bye right? I'd probably hold off and see if someone somewhere drops a TE after a bye that's a more reliable play.

I do not understand how this advice applies to the question...

Ah, is Gates hurt? I wasn't going anywhere near him in any league (for about the last 4 years) so I haven't kept up. Thought he was just asking if its worth getting a backup.

If he's out, I'd go Ebron in that list.

It worth keeping Forsett around in case he gets signed with another team? I don't really need the slot. Only real waiver guys worth talking about in that league are Gillislee and Rainey

No. I'd rather own a second defense or those two guys than Justin Forsett.

I'll put in a claim for those two, maybe I'll get one. My first claim position is being used on a linebacker anyway, so we'll see.

In an unrelated IDP inquiry: is JJ Watt worth a first round dynasty (rookie) pick? Who's coming out next year. The team in question is bottom feeding at the moment, so it's likely to be a high pick one way or the other.

Are you the only team that's needing a LB? or do you know if anyone else is picking up the same dude as you? If so i wouldn't waste a claim position on one.

This league doesn't have any FCFS period, it's all daily waivers with season long priority, so there isn't much in the way of wasting a waiver position (I'm 10/12 as it is because I needed a kicker last week). My offensive starters/bye coverage are solid, but I'm short a defensive starter and hopefully this guy will stay my defensive flex, so...

Me. It was a recurring theme a year or two ago here.

Basically, I think "injury prone" is overused, because all the things that are actually predictive of future injury (mostly biomechanics and physiology related) is not information we the fans have access to. What we have is injury history, which is more often than not a string of freak traumatic impacts because Football is a violent sort that makes EVERY player prone to injury. There are only a handful of specific injuries that demonstrably carry a cumulative and predictive risk of future injury (concussions being the primary example).

I agree with all of this.

And also that some players are more prone to freak traumatic impacts than others.
