Got a couple tough decisions I need some input on. Non-PPR

Pick 3 WRs:
Diggs vs Miami
Metcalf vs SF
Hopkins @ Den
Jeudy vs Arz
K. Allen vs Tenn

Need an RB2:
Sanders vs Chicago
Dobbins vs Clev

Diggs
Hopkins
K. Allen
Sanders

Lost Murray last night in a one QB league, we use total QB so still have McCoy at Denver and Derek Carr vs NE

Possible WW targets

Daniel Jones at Washington
Tom Brady vs Cinn
Andy Dalton vs ATL
Matt Ryan at Minn

Dulcich or Njoku?

And then wondering if I should pick up Dobbins and bench Chubb.

some very tough calls this week.

wish the 49ers-Seahawks was not in the dreaded Thursday night slot.

plus the SF defense has been playing great the last 6 weeks. No one has score more than 17 points against them since the Chiefs in week 7

Keenan has looked great since coming back from injury.

Chargers at home vs. a Titans defense that just got shredded by the Jags.

I would squeeze him in the lineup

woof...the weather in Buffalo Saturday night.

temps likely below freezing throughout with snow.

and Tua has been kind of average the past month.

not sure Tyler Bass is auto-start either

Kinda what I'm thinking. Actually think I may sit Hopkins this week. The broncos are the tuffest against opposing WRs in fantasy, plus Murray hurt. Diggs, Allen, Metcalf is where I'm leaning.

Yeah, not excited about Geno in that situation. Thinking about Mike White vs Det, if he can play. Sometimes you have to throw a Hail Mary in the playoffs

some cloudiness moving forward:

RB start 3:
Henry @LAC sole lock
Conner @Den tough-ish matchup but increased usage sans Murray(?)
Kamara VsAtl good matchup, been bottled since Nov
Walker vsSF holdoff even if healthy?
Dobbins @Cle too soon? another solid game makes him too interesting

TE:
Okonkwo @LAC picked up last wk as a fill-in but heating up
Hill vsAtl uptrending usage plus matchup -edit dropped for Driskel, need to see another high usage game before having the balls to start him here?
Goedert @Chi most reliable but 1st game back

KC defense against the lowly Texans for sure. Raiders are playing better lately but still a terrible defense.
I'd avoid Tua with the ankle issue. Something isn't right. It's at Buffalo with snow storms this weekend potentially.

I think it's a tossup on the TE considering the injury to Wilson.

My team and reserves. Standard scoring, no PPE, no kicker, and bonuses to long TDs (over 40 yards). Need a FLEX and defense although happy with KC.

Starters
QB - Herbert
RB - Kamara
RB - Pollard
WR - T. Hill - Dolphins
WR - Chase
TE - Kittle
FLEX - K. Allen
FLEX - wide open. who do you think?
DEF - KC

Bench
T. Hill - Saints
Thielen
Mostert/Wilson combo
Tua
Peoples-Jones
Slayton
Patriots DEF _ stolen when someone dropped them randomly last week
SF DEF

I've ridden the SF defense the season, but I went with KC over SF last week (won me the 3 seed) and will continue with them this week (HOU) and week 16 (DEN). Going up against JETS defense in Detroit, so should be low points for them. Change my mind.

For Flex, my order is Peoples Jones, Mostert if Wilson is out, and then T. Hill will Ingram out.

PPR. Thinking about benching Lockett for C. Watson. Thoughts?

Walker surprisingly logs full practice, dare I start over Kamara?

Man, I really wish CMC and DK weren't playing on a Thursday.

I need to pick 2. One QB and one superflex:
Brady v Cin
Sanders @ Chi
Goff @ NYJ

Normally I'd just start the two QBs and be done with it, but Goff does not play well on the road and Sanders has been rolling. And then there's Brady who has been pretty average this year.

Pats D has been great this season, but the remaining matchups are not great from here on out. All top 10 offenses.

Depends on who your other options are. DK has been pretty solid the past 5 or 6 games. But i hear you, he is going up against the league's best defense. And Thursday night games generally suck.

SF may be the best overall defense but they've given up the 21st most points to WRs in fantasy. I'm starting DK over Hopkins and Jeudy.

Those numbers are skewed A LOT by their games against KC and Miami. Take those 2 games out of the equation and they're somewhere around #7. Take away just the KC game and they're #11. They've been very good outside of that.

That said, i'm also still starting DK this week without hesitation.

I'm struggling with the same TNF concerns and have been starting DK and Lockett both every week. Pick 2:

DK
Lockett
DeVonta Smith
Christian Watson

hasn't been mentioned here yet but any other Yahoo leaguers sneakily grab Jeff DRISKEL to potentially cheatcode in significant QB snaps at TE, seems he may get a bit more usage than Taysom
50% of snaps last wk and if Mills goes down you have 2 starting QB's in lineup

Wow. Just added him. Didn't realize he was listed as a TE in yahoo. Nice heads up!

Need two WR slots. Higgins hosed me last week and Hollywood makes me nervous too. Not sure if Burks will play and Higgins may be out again too. How would you rank these? I also have McKinnon in my Flex spot.

M. Brown
T. Higgins
D. Chark
T. Burks
D. Peoples Jones

Yahoo has Higgins ranked as the WR #37 this week

can't have a repeat of his undisclosed injury situation from last week

If Higgins goes Limited, Limited, Full....would you start him over Waddle and Aiyuk (with Deebo out)?

PPR

Have two flex positions, so can start any 3 of the following.

Which 2 do I sit?

Fournette (has underperformed his projection 80% of the time....and has the lowest projected points of the season this week)
A. Cooper (a little worried about his injury)
Lockett (Tough Matchup)
Driskel (Total unknown)
Kirk (Hit or miss)
W
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
I would start Kirk and Lockett for sure

I like Driskel in the TE slot better than in a flex spot

then probably Fournette over an injured Cooper

W

definitely start Aiyuk over HIggins this week.

wonder if the Dolphins are going to break out the teal pants. All white uniforms plus white helmets doesn't sound like a good idea for the deep passing game in the snow

Do I roll with Walker tonight or Zonovan Knight?

PPR league.
Latrobe

I'm going with Walker.

Made another move: dropped Bass (K Buff) due to the weather and went with Koo (best available). We'll see if that pays off…

Purdy is now iffy to start tonight against Seahawks. 49ers may be down to 4th string QB tonight.

If he plays, he has multiple injuries/will play through pain.
