the Thursday night game and the London game...look a little scary fantasy-wise.

which means the defenses might be a good play

speaking of London...

any Cousins or Wentz owners thinking about rolling with Marcus Mariota at home vs. the Browns instead?

Mariota's established a fairly reliable floor

Over Wentz, yes. That guys goal for sunday is to not get knocked out of the game by Parsons/DLaw. Further unlike the Eagles I'm not too sure the Cowboys will get a big lead on offense that will leave time for garbage time points. Dallas is top 4 in passing yards against. That is with facing Brady & Burrow for 2 of the 3.
Along that note I'd expect McLaurin to get Diggs so bad matchup for him.

Over Cousins, hard call. Browns are without Clowney and potentially Garrett. Mariota could have time to throw the ball against a Browns team that is bottom 10 in QB pressure rates (that was with Garrett).

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?
They will play in Minnesota if they can't in Tampa.

I've thought about it...but feel like the week I start him, his floor bottoms out and he has 5 points lol

I took a screenshot and made sure they were ranked correctly. If you look at the league activity, mine were 3 and 4 even though I had priority 1. It's no big deal, just frustrating

Someone dropped Tom Brady in my league...I have Cousins and Lawrence right now as my QBs. How much FAAB would y'all throw at Brady??

sounds like Tua will play tonight... Tua tonight @CIN (hopefully a shootout) or Aaron Rogers vs NE on Sunday?

Just one...don't plan on rostering all three. Would cut Cousins for him.

Normally wouldn't roster two QBs, but I am about to have a free space once Swift gets the OUT tag, and I think Lawrence has real potential. I just want to see one more week before I am really confident in him.

What about Tampa makes you think they will be a prolific fantasy passing offense?
They have a great defense and will likely look to eat up clock to keep their defense off the field.
That great defense will prevent alot of garbage time point opportunities through the air.
They are very committed to running the ball and Fournette is good for short yardage TDs.

Now Cousins will be a roller coaster player but Lawrence should hopefully be your guy. Kirk, Zay Jones and a solid run game are keys to a good passing offense I think Cousins will have bigger upside game potentials.

Tom Brady is currently QB 27 in fantasy points this year. Would be 28th if Garoppalo played the first 2 games. He is 2 points ahead of Mills and 5 points ahead of Fields.

Personally, I'd put exactly $0 on Brady at this point considering what you've got on your roster.

I think it is less about his potential to be prolific and more that I like him more than Kirk Cousins haha buuuuut Brady finished as the QB3 in fantasy last season. They had a great defense and strong running game last year and Brady was still elite....so far this year he has been without Godwin and Julio basically the whole season and has only had Mike Evans for a game and a half. Given the circumstances, I feel like Brady has done well and will get better once he has his guys back. I think Brady is much more likely to finish the season as a QB1 on a weekly basis than Kirk Cousins when that happens.

I am also hoping Lawrence can be my guy though.

Kirk Cousins' MNF performance just really left a sour taste in my mouth haha

Oh trust me I get it. But as you've already acknowledged, I think Lawrence might be your QB from here on out. Don't judge him too harshly on what Philly might do to him though. They're nasty this year.

I'm a believer...I am hoping he can overcome it and still look good, then I will really be sold on him. I scooped Philly D/ST up and think there is a chance they are set it and forget it ROS.

Not sure how this happened, but in one of my yahoo leagues, I have Chase, Waddle, St. Brown, and AJ Brown (not to mention M Brown). Can only start 3 of them each week....sucks having to decide. My RBs suck (N Harris, Montgomery, Akers, and Wilson Jr.). Another team has Taylor and Chubb. I'm thinking Chase for Chubb is a fair deal.

it looks like Tua and Waddle will play tonight -- increasing the chances of a high scoring game.

always a concern for Thursday nights

I think it's gotta be Tua. GB might win that game 17-3 with Rodgers throwing the ball like 18 times

I benched Josh Jacob's last week for Dameon Pierce and it paid off… but Pierce did end up getting benched for two fumbles despite the production. …do I reinsert Jacobs v DEN this week (who Pierce rolled last week) or roll with Pierce vs LAC?

You are in a great trade position.

I don't know...the Raiders offense has been a disappointment. Haven't scored more than 23 points in a game yet. And they kick a ton of field goals. Great if you have Carlson.

are they going to break out vs. the Denver defense?

Pierce has a decent matchup at home vs. the Chargers

yeah; all the week 4 rankings and start/sit analysis stuff I've seen suggest that I should start Pierce over Jacobs. ...but the benching for two fumbles vs CHI last week and limited this week with a new hip injury has me hesitating on that one.

once Swift gets the OUT tag
I am getting annoyed with these last minute OUT tags that tie up my ability to adjust my roster especially Thursday games (have to start sit players for that game before Wednesday morning). Rondale Moore was questionable every week Wed-Sat and then OUT. Likely out again this week. Just frustrating.

Fantasy football sucks. I say we just all quit.

Yep. Players flip from O to Q and back and forth without ever playing a game. Annoying.

Gotta take advantage of when they get the O tag and throw them in the IR slot. They can be there with a Q in most leagues.

Drop Juju to pick up Olave. As for Start/sit, it is trending like ARSB is going to miss this weekend, so you might have an extra spot open up

I love that there's a football game on Thursday night, but I absolutely want no part of any player in any game on Thursday night. It sucks.

I'm playing Tua in two leagues tonight. And McPherson in one. Fingers crossed.
