10 team, non-PPR

Starters:
QB Winston
RBs Ajayi, Anderson
WRs Green, M Thomas
TE Rudolph
FLEX Hopkins
DST Raiders
K Bailey

Bench:
QB Cousins
RBs Ingram, Coleman, Cohen, Gore, Peterson
WRs Cobb


Dropables in bold. The two waivers I'm targeting are Chris Carson and Snead. Dropping Peterson and Gore for them respectively.

I really want to pick up either Wentz or Siemian (who do you rank higher?), but I don't feel it's time to cut Cousins yet.

Thoughts?

Also what streaming DSTs are you looking at this week?

Starters
QB Winston
RBs LeSean McCoy, Marshawn Lynch
WRs Keenan Allen, DaVante Adams
TE Coby Fleener
FLEX Demarco
D/ST Steelers (but streaming somewhat)
K Tavecchio

Bench
Sammy Watkins
Martavis Bryant
Willie Snead
Matt Forte
Raiders D/ST
Kerwyn Williams
Tyrod Taylor

Should I scoop up any of the following or roll with what I got?

Chris Thompson
Jalen Richard
JJ Nelson
Allen Hurns
Jemaine Kearse
Hunter Henry
David Njoku
Titans D/ST
Bills D/ST

Our waiver wire resets weekly based on standings unfortunately, so I don't have to worry about priority changing or whatever

Definitely drop Raiders D/ST for any position player. Probably Chris Thompson.

Probably looking at streaming Miami DST vs Jets or Green Bay DST vs Bengals. Agree?

What about even Browns DST vs. Colts? I could see a very sloppy game with lots of turnovers and a D/ST TD.

Hey, i'm assuming 'Coleman' is referring to 'Corey Coleman?' If so, reports today confirmed that he broke his hand and will likely miss at least 6 weeks. I think he should be the first guy to drop.

Thanks, no I have him listed under RBs. Tevin Coleman.

Would y'all drop Mixon for Chris Thompson or Derrick Henry? If so in what order? My RB situation is looking pretty grim right now, so not sure if I can wait much longer for Cincy to maybe figure it out with Mixon.

Current rbs (can only keep 4, start 2, standard scoring)

Howard, Cohen, Mixon, West

I would take Henry over any and all of your RBs it's a total joke he isn't owned already, but likely too late now after that performance unless u have top waiver priority

Not sure why you're rostering West in the first place, especially in a league shallow enough where Henry is a FA

Better waiver claim: Carson or Buck?

I think Buck. West is dealing with a "soft tissue injury" and woodhead is on IR. It's bucks time

Considering West has been the better fantasy rb up to this point....

Henry is available because someone made the decision to drop him last week. This is a 12 team league, so not shallow at all. But thanks for the condescending advise.

Man, I would honestly pick up Derrick Henry...he looked dominant, Chris Thompson broke a couple big runs for scores and had significantly less carries than Perine and Kelley (before he went down). I think Henry could continue to expand his role...especially if Murray sits out for an extended period of time. I wouldn't touch any Cincy backs last year and I definitely would not this year after the addition of Mixon, but that is just me.

Should my top 3 waiver picks be in this order? I know Peterson is drop-able from my team. Is Gore drop-able for any/all of the below 3?

Carson
Hogan
Snead


Starters:
QB Winston
RBs Ajayi, Anderson
WRs Green, M Thomas
TE Rudolph
FLEX Hopkins
DST Raiders
K Bailey

Bench:
QB Cousins
RBs Ingram, Coleman, Cohen, Gore, Peterson
WRs Cobb

I would put Snead over Hogan, but I don't think I would drop Gore for any of those guys other than Carson at this point...I would probably dump Cobb before I would Gore, especially with the WRs that you have.

How much longer do you think you will hold onto AP?

Thanks. Oh, AP is my #1 drop this week for sure. Dropping him for Carson as my first choice. If I don't get Carson, I'd drop him for Hogan or Snead. My dilemma is if I do get Carson, do I also want to put in a waiver to get Hogan or Snead for Gore (or possibly Cobb as you suggest, but I see that as a lateral move right now IMO).

I'm not concerned about losing waiver priority as it resets every week, so that's not a factor.

My reasoning for dropping Gore is that I'm looking for some upside at this point. If he hadn't got a TD on Sunday I don't think I'd hesitate to drop him. The TD is making me a little more hesitant, but I'm not sure that's logical. I don't see Gore as being any thing more than a bye week replacement, and I already have more than enough RBs that are serviceable for that. Correct me if anyone thinks I'm looking at it wrong.

Ppr league with 3 keepers (keep in round drafted or 15th round if not drafted)

Rank these waiver wire /free agent options (I am considering dropping Blount, Eifert (my only TE) and Marshall).

Rb:
C Thompson
Perine
Sproles
Burkhead

WR:
Sanu
Nelson (Arizona)
Lee
Higgins

TE:
Engram
Henry
Ebron
James
Clay

I'm not thinking many of these are worth a waiver wire pickup, but I may use one given my real needs at RB and TE.

Ah, my league resets weekly as well, although I think it is dumb, it is beneficial at times.

I would definitely drop Cobb for Snead. I think that Cobb is the third or fourth option in that offense where Snead will likely be the second option because of the loss of Brandin Cooks in an offense that will throw a ton. For comparison's sake, Snead had 895 yards last year where Randall Cobb had 610.

Rank these waiver wire /free agent options (I am considering dropping Blount, Eifert (my only TE) and Marshall). I have attempted to rank them and I put *** by the ones I'll put a waiver claim on, the rest I'll target in FA.

Rb:
C Thompson 3
Perine*** 1 (out carried Thompson, I think Thompsons numbers are because of those two big runs)
Sproles 2 (was on the field for more than 10x as many snaps as Blount)
Burkhead 4

WR:
Sanu 2
Nelson*** (Arizona) 1 (6 TDs in last 7 games)
Lee 3
Higgins 4

TE:
Engram 1
Henry 4
Ebron 2
James 5
Clay 3

As someone told me last week (Cobb was on waivers and I was debating whether to pick him or Snead up), Cobb may be listed 3rd on the depth chart, but he's Rodger's favorite target when he's healthy. If Cobb's healthy, I really like him. But it really is a crapshoot.

Cobb is not the same player as last year and he seems to be a far more consistent option than Snead. I'd drop Gore long before Cobb and I'm not certain I'd rank Snead ahead of Cobb until he proves he can be consistent. Hell I started Cobb as my flex in a 10 team league in which I'm in 2nd place right now.

There's no way, last year Jordy had 152 targets, DaVante Adams had 121, Cobb had 84...then if you account for Montgomery's usage on the ground and in the air, one could make the case that Monty is a higher priority in that offense than Cobb. This year, the target numbers are closer, but we are two weeks into the season and Jordy missed almost all of the game against the Falcons. I see a higher ceiling with Snead, but obviously a WR catching passes from Rodgers could have a big game any given week.

I guess time will tell, I think both are inconsistent options and personally would not want to start either of them. Fortunately, it looks like GiGeMaGs11 has a good enough roster to where he won't have to worry about starting either. I also forgot he has Michael Thomas, so that may actually sway me towards Cobb for him anyway.

I can see it. Cobb certainly had a poor year last year. Many think there's things pointing towards this year being different (we all know how that goes). One plus to Cobb is he gives me more diversity in teams, since I already have M Thomas with NO. Of course, having Snead probably gives me upside if M Thomas goes down.

Frankly I want both Cobb and Snead (possibly Hogan). That's why I'm considering dropping Gore, as I only see him as a bye week fill in that grabs TDs sporadically. Even if one of my starting RBs go down, I can't imagine ever giving Gore a start unless I'm completely decimated or when/if Luck returns he completely turns things around there. A lot of my players are on terrible offenses, so I'm also looking to change that.

If you have any more thoughts, I appreciate it.

Yeah, like I mentioned in the reply to the other guy, I totally forgot that you had Michael Thomas...if you are only able to get one of those guys, I would actually take the chance to diversify instead. Honestly, I could see you grabbing both at the expense of AP and Gore since you have pretty good RBs and the WRs are sort of iffy just because of the QBs/OLines that their teams have.

On another note, crazy that we are at a point where dropping AP and Frank Gore for a WR2-3 actually makes sense.

Of course. Any opinion on DeMarco Murray? I am worried about him, some of the analysts think that he will bounce back from his hamstring injury and others think Derrick Henry will overtake him completely. Last week I had a chance to trade him for CJ Anderson straight up and now I am not so sure how I feel about declining that...

I would put Snead over Hogan, but I don't think I would drop Gore for any of those guys other than Carson at this point...I would probably dump Cobb before I would Gore, especially with the WRs that you have.

How much longer do you think you will hold onto AP?

Thanks. Oh, AP is my #1 drop this week for sure. Dropping him for Carson as my first choice. If I don't get Carson, I'd drop him for Hogan or Snead. My dilemma is if I do get Carson, do I also want to put in a waiver to get Hogan or Snead for Gore (or possibly Cobb as you suggest, but I see that as a lateral move right now IMO).

I'm not concerned about losing waiver priority as it resets every week, so that's not a factor.
Ah, my league resets weekly as well, although I think it is dumb, it is beneficial at times.

I would definitely drop Cobb for Snead. I think that Cobb is the third or fourth option in that offense where Snead will likely be the second option because of the loss of Brandin Cooks in an offense that will throw a ton. For comparison's sake, Snead had 895 yards last year where Randall Cobb had 610.
As someone told me last week (Cobb was on waivers and I was debating whether to pick him or Snead up), Cobb may be listed 3rd on the depth chart, but he's Rodger's favorite target when he's healthy. If Cobb's healthy, I really like him. But it really is a crapshoot.
There's no way, last year Jordy had 152 targets, DaVante Adams had 121, Cobb had 84...then if you account for Montgomery's usage on the ground and in the air, one could make the case that Monty is a higher priority in that offense than Cobb. This year, the target numbers are closer, but we are two weeks into the season and Jordy missed almost all of the game against the Falcons. I see a higher ceiling with Snead, but obviously a WR catching passes from Rodgers could have a big game any given week.
I can see it. Cobb certainly had a poor year last year. Many think there's things pointing towards this year being different (we all know how that goes). One plus to Cobb is he gives me more diversity in teams, since I already have M Thomas with NO. Of course, having Snead probably gives me upside if M Thomas goes down.

Frankly I want both Cobb and Snead (possibly Hogan). That's why I'm considering dropping Gore, as I only see him as a bye week fill in that grabs TDs sporadically. Even if one of my starting RBs go down, I can't imagine ever giving Gore a start unless I'm completely decimated or when/if Luck returns he completely turns things around there. A lot of my players are on terrible offenses, so I'm also looking to change that.

If you have any more thoughts, I appreciate it.
Yeah, like I mentioned in the reply to the other guy, I totally forgot that you had Michael Thomas...if you are only able to get one of those guys, I would actually take the chance to diversify instead. Honestly, I could see you grabbing both at the expense of AP and Gore since you have pretty good RBs and the WRs are sort of iffy just because of the QBs/OLines that their teams have.

On another note, crazy that we are at a point where dropping AP and Frank Gore for a WR2-3 actually makes sense.
Yes. Thanks for your input.

In hindsight, you absolutely should have taken the trade. But it would be hard to do at the time. I have CJ Anderson, and I just made a new thread on here about him. I think he has potential to be top 10, or even top 5, but I have a lot of concerns about his injury history and general confidence about the OL/QB/Offense. I would love to sell him high if I can, but I would only be looking for very solid players in return.

With that said, I would 100% prefer to have Anderson over Murray right now. I've considered trading for Murray, but only offering trash to try to get a panic sell out of his owner. I doubt you'd get more than trash for him right now if you tried to trade. I think your only hope is he recovers quickly and Henry doesn't take over as much as is expected.

The one glimmer of hope that I have is he is a pass catcher and Henry is not, so there is a chance that once he is 100% he will start again and be back to last year's form. If not, I have Marshawn and LeSean McCoy, so DeMarco is a FLEX play at this point and I can replace him with a WR...unfortunately, most of my WRs are boom or bust.

Ouch, McCoy, Murray, Lynch is a 1,2,3 that looked awesome on draft day that looks pretty rough right now (excluding Lynch who should still be great). Hope they still work out for you.

I have Murray in one league and instead of trading Murray for trash I'm trying to trade for Henry. Not sure that's the right approach but that's where I am at...

I tried to get Henry, but was not successful. His owner has been very high on Henry all year.
