Pat Freiermuth is my TE right now...how much FAAB should I throw at Tyler Higbee or David Njoku? Hold Freiermuth or cut him for one of them?

I also have Kirk Cousins as my QB right now...thinking about grabbing Trevor Lawrence and Aaron Rodgers.

Would y'all feel better about holding onto Kirk or snagging Rodgers?

This is a big FAAB week. Many WR 3/4s with TDs and big games. I think you would cut Freirmuth for Higbee but not for any big FAAB money since the upgrade is small in my book.

This. Small upgrade if any, I can see doing it, but not for much FAAB.

I also wouldn't cut anyone for Njoku., I feel like we've seen this before from him. Big game here or there, disappears for awhile. Though I generally don't like 2 TE's on the roster, depending on your bench I could see throwing a few bucks at him to see if this year is any different. I'm considering the same thing in one of my leagues.

Right now I have Kenneth Walker III and Browns D/ST occupying my last two bench spots...I should have another open slot when D'Andre Swift gets the O tag so I could afford to hold onto two QBs or two TEs or two D/STs for a little bit.

txagbeliever mentioned it being a big FAAB week...not a lot of appeal in my league right now. Of course there is Khalil Herbert, but outside of him DJ Chark, Zay Jones, George Pickens, and Craig Reynolds are the only "decent" options out there. I may throw a dart at Zay Jones and see if I can use him as trade bait down the road.

gotta get Devonta in the lineup, so only start 2 out of MThomas(vs Min), DK(@Det), AGibson(@Dal)

Id sit AGibson. Dal is not giving up alot of looks. Detroit Defense is weak. Obviously watch if MThomas is banged up.

better pickup - Jamaal Williams or Khalil Herbert? or both?

both Swift and Montgomery appear to be day to day. Both of their backups could be smash starts the next week or two.

and should I drop Jeff Wilson Jr or Damien Harris for either - or both?

I'd want both. Campbell tales about holding swift out until the bye. Herbert looks better than Montgomery.

Anyone else you could drop?

Next two weeks? Williams. Swift may be completely out of the picture until after the bye (anyone seen updated info on this?). Williams will be a stud. Once Swift is back who knows? We've seen what a healthy Swift can do in Week 1.

Long run I like Herbert. If swift makes it back and healthy, Williams will be relegated back to 1b and goal line carries. I think Herbert could take over at some point.

I'd be willing to drop Wilson, he's ok, Trent Williams just went out too with a high ankle, Mitchell may be back sometime. Pretty sure I'd be ok with dropping Harris, I think either (Williams/Herbert) probably have the same floor as Harris with or without the starters. This is of course assuming there's no one more expendable on your bench, both those guys (Wilson/Harris) are decent bench guys to have.

Thanks guys. I picked them both up. Dropped Allen Lazard and Jeff Wilson Jr.

With Dalvin banged up, Najee not being able to accomplish much with that OL, and JWJ not meeting expectations with that OL after Eli Mitchell's injury, I will need all the RB help..

Now, I'm looking at Olave still sitting there on waivers... I love those targets he's getting... 13 each of the last two weeks.. Doubs (looking like the #1 GB WR I had hoped Lazard was going to be) and Zay Jones (more targets than Kirk in JAX through 3 weeks) are also available..... should I drop Damien Harris (with QB out, Pats will lean on their two Rbs studs), or DJ Moore for Olave, Doub, or Zay? ...or continue being patient with DJ and keep D. Harris stashed?

My WRs are: Amon-Ra, Deebo, Drake London, JuJu, Bateman, DJ Moore
My RBs now are: Dalvin, Najee, Khalil H., Jamaal W., Damien Harris

Do you roster an extra QB, TE, D, or K?

If not, I'd probably drop Harris for Olave personally, but I'd rather hold onto him if you can.

I got no other QB, TE, D, or K at this time, but all have different bye weeks and I will hope to stream someone each of those weeks utilizing the IR spot or dropping someone if needed. Towards the end of the season, as long as i'm in playoff contention, I'll start looking to accumulate and stack 2-3 defenses based on their playoff matchups.

1pt PPR league

need 1 RB: Conner, Dobbins, or Damien Harris

need 1 WR: DeVonta, Hollins, JuJu, or Metcalf


Thanks

conner and devonta

but i don't like any of those RB right now.

I'm going to drop Allen Robinson. Olave and Jeudy both cleared waivers, which one of those should I grab moving forward for the season? My current WR's are AJ Brown, Michael Thomas, Amari Cooper and Drake London

Hold onto Kirk Cousins as my QB or grab Aaron Rodgers? I stashed Trevor Lawrence as an upside play, but am nervous to start him against Philly.

I kinda like Olave for ROS, but you already have Michael Thomas; Jeudy wouldn't be bad either.

Id prefer Olave. That Denver offense is a mess.

I like that Trevor is throwing the ball nearly 40 times / game so far. I really don't like Cousins, but he's getting to the 40 passes / game activity too.. and Rogers isn't.

I don't even think I'd be afraid to start Trevor at this point.

need to run DeVonta out there while he has the target trust

The Eagles defense is the only thing holding me back...but I guess Cousins plays the Saints which isn't really favorable.

Grabbed Olave....thanks guys

i'm really itching to grab Olave too... just not sure if i should pull the trigger on dropping Damien Harris or DJ Moore.


on another note, for those with any Chiefs or Bucs players, what are they saying about the Tampa game this weekend?

i streamed the HOU def @CHI last week. They were adequate. 5 sacks. got me 9 pts. ...is picking on CHI a good strategy? Not sure if I like the NYG def, but yahoo projects them highest available for me.

this week, anyone else looking at MIA @CIN on Thursday night? MIA has been a pretty good defense except for week 2 @BAL.. they actually got 7 points week 3 vs BUF.

DEF options:

NYG vs CHI
IND vs TEN
CAR vs ARI
ARI @CAR
MIN @NO
DET vs SEA
TEN @IND
WAS @DAL
MIA @CIN
LV vs DEN
CHI @NYG

I put in as many waivers as I could for Jamaal and Herbert --- mixed results in actually getting them

I would take the Cowboys D/ST vs. Wentz --- they should feast

actually passed on claiming Jamaal with my #2 priority since didn't have a huge need at RB (Henry, Kamara, Gibson, Dobbins, Mattison, Walker start 2+1flx), #1 claim actually went to Doubs so made it out holding top waiver priority now, guess just gotta hold for an egregious drop or season ending starter injury

DAL isn't an option for me but I do have them in another league. In this one, am I crazy for disbelieving all the week 4 rankings and projections and starting MIA on the road on Thursday? Burrows gets sacked A LOT.

My list above is in order of yahoo projection but I don't really like any of them.

Id be careful with Miami. Tua is questionable. Short week plus hurricane altered normal travel plans. Coming off a huge win at Buffalo.

Minnesota is a potential good play. Winston is questionable. Already a bad qb so INTs are likely. NO hasn't ran the ball well. Thomas is questionable. Landry too.

apparently DET has all three WRs - Amon-Ra, Chark, and Josh Reynolds listed as questionable, and Swift out... I'm really glad I picked up Jamaal now..

sneaky play if Amon-Ra and Chark are both out - Josh Reynolds is only 2% owned in yahoo leagues. He had 10 targets last week with Amon-ra hobbled for part of the game.

interesting option. MIN got only 2 pts at home vs DET last week. 0 sacks, gave up 24 points. ..and I do think Jameis is going to play. ..in London..

Eagles D put up 5 points against Lions (13 & 20 next two games). Washington 3 points against Lions (5 & 5 against eagles and Jags). So I think Lions just have a good offense.

Im not crazy about Chicago that gave up big fantasy day to B. Pierce that now lines up against Barkley.

Question on waiver priority for ESPN. I set up 4 waiver adds last night and my team had #1 waiver priority last night. Woke up this morning and my number 3 and 4 were filled but two other teams got my number 1 and 2 preference. Why would that happen?

Did you check how you ranked your adds? Your 3rd or 4th waiver move was likely ranked first.
