You need to reverse. I have baldwin. It's .5 ppr, I still think eventually Bryant will start getting those "every third down throws" he used to get. But bird in the hand, you know.

 

You're right, totally caught that after I responded my bad lol. I don't think him and Prescott will be in sync as much as they say but once Tony is back he will be a WR1 no doubt, that's if Romo stays healthy. He's been beat up for 1.5 years now.

Don't waste the #1 waiver claim on a QB, you just need a one week fill in

 

PPR league? Riddick would be a solid get.. Same with Fuller. I wouldn't drop Henry just yet

 

Prolly wouldnt trade Gronk either, but of course that depends on what the return would be.

 

Gotta drop somebody. :lol: I have Jeremy Hill, Stephon Diggs, Dwayne Allen, T.J. Yeldon and Henry on my bench. Oh, I do have Josh Gordon too but I don't know if I wanna waive him. I think he's going to help me as soon as he's back from suspension.

Then quite honestly, im not sure I make any moves.

 

TJ Yeldon would probably be the guy I send packing if you were to make any moves. He was not very impressive Sunday and once Ivory gets back I am not sure how useful he is going to be fantasy wise.

 

I would probably sit tight if I were you.. sounds like your team killed it this week and your bench looks pretty strong

I'm in the same boat with the #1 waiver claim. I'm going to drop Derrick Henry. I need a backup QB but not till week 4 which is Rodgers bye week (Stafford is actually available in my league). I don't think I wanna use it on a QB though even though I should jump on Stafford. I need a RB after Bell comes back in a couple weeks (I'm weak there especially now with Freeman looking like a RB2, so I pretty much just have Forte) so I'm looking at Theo Reddick. BUT, Will Fuller is looking awfully attractive. I might just pick that kid up. He looked amazing against the Bears.

 

I'm going to possibly shop Gronk this week. Maybe even Rodgers if I decide to just take Stafford. Carl, any advise bro?

 

I would absolutely be picking up Will Fuller if I didn't have Hopkins already. I can't see having 2 WR from the same team being a good idea.

 

I might just wait until the waiver period is over and grab Mike Wallace or TJ Yeldon. Or maybe Tajae Sharpe.

Came into last night down 68 points with Antonio Brown and DeAngelo Williams left to play. Ended up losing by 0.4 points :lol:

 

Also, in my other league that has weekly payouts to top scorer, I had second most points by only 1.3 points because the refs refused to do their job and review the Kirk Cousins non-INT with 18 seconds left that they wrongly called an INT on the field

Hah I wondered if that would affect anyone.

Ya'll shuddup about ya'll fantasy wins

I was down 4 with Cousins in a league where QB TDs are worth 6 and neither of us had anybody in the late game. That late INT hurt...

Any recommendations for some sites that I can read about sleepers/faab/projections etc. I just like to have a variety of places so wondering what other people use.

I put Melvin Gordon in a few offers. Trying to sell-high on him. Put out offers for DeMarco Murray and one for Matt Forte.

 

Also put out an offer of Melvin Gordon and Eric Decker to a dumb friend of ours for LeVeon Bell. He has Danny Woodhead, and that's the 1-for-1 I was initially trying to go for, but I would think he would be suspicious of trading a RB for a RB on the same team.

Also, I forgot that waiver priority changes every week based on record. So since I am 1-0, my waiver dropped from 1st to 8th. So I put out waiver claims for Mike Wallace (drop Keenan Allen) and also TJ Yeldon (drop Christine Michael).

Well.. Fuller officially claimed. Gotta hope having this #1 claim will help later. I really wanted that kid but I know I'll need a RB. (Tyrell Williams is available though. I wanna see this Sunday who Rivers goes to more before nabbing him)

Edited by SoxAce

I probably paid too much to claim fuller but severely thin at WR, and also claimed chris thompson for small fee.

Pretty decent site

Taking a flyer on Jalen Richard.

 

It's a 14 team league and my guys are getting hurt too much.

I am 100% confident Latavius Murray will eventually lose that job. I'm just unsure which backup it goes too.

 

More likely they start a 3 way RBBC

I have

 

Le'Veon Bell (SUS)

Jamaal Charles (INJ)

Melvin Gordon

Giovani Bernard

Jalen Richard (Waived Charcandrick West)

 

Hopefully, by Week 4 it won't matter much.

Was able to pick up LaFell for Robert Turbin and Chris Thompson for Rob Kelley.

 

Not sure on LaFell, had some other guys who I think are equivalent options; Eddie Royal, Cole Beasley, Kerley. But I have Boyd so I figure that one of the 2 of them will start in Cinci.

 

Thompson was just switching backups, Kelley did nothing and Thompson had the most snaps at RB. Just keeping him on the bench to see what happens.

 

Didnt really feel like bidding on anyone, so I just put in free waiver claims.

man. you have all of those in a 14 team league?!

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 14, 2016 -> 02:04 PM)

I ignored QB until late and got Dalton and Fitzpatrick.

 

I have AJ Green, Demaryus Thomas, Pierre Garcon, Vincent Jackson, and Kevin White at WR.

Guys I have a WR2 Logjam but with crappy receivers.

 

My #1 is Dez who last week has left me doubting his ability to put up #1 numbers if Prescott is starting.

 

But my #2 is a tossup between a banged up Sanu,a banged up Wheaton, Tajae Sharp, Eli Rodgers, and Michael Thomas.

 

Any help here?

If Sanu is healthy, start him. I'd go Sharp at #2, Thomas at #3, and Rogers at #4 if Wheaton still can't play.

Missed out on the Yeldon claim, so I decided to pick up Will Fuller and drop Michael since he is going to he worthless very soon. Hoping Fuller has a nice week on my bench and then I can flip him in a trade.

Sanu if hes playing followed by Sharpe, Thomas, Rogers, Wheaton

 

Thomas is probably the play this week over Sanu regardless.. That Giants/Saints game should be a big time shootout
