Alright, fellas, playoffs are here! Best of luck to everyone these next few weeks.

I thought I had a first-round bye locked up, but thanks to losing Tank Dell, Justin Herbert, Justin Jefferson, and leaving Drake London and Breece Hall on the bench last week, I lost and was passed in PF, so I fell from the one seed to the three seed the last week of the season.

Now I am debating what waiver wire QB to start...
Geno v. PHI
Baker @GB
Carr v. NYG
Browning v. MIN
Most other crappy QBs

Also debating whether I should start Drake London or Jerome Ford over Keenan Allen since he lost Herbert.

Thoughts?

Thanks to Stroud being in concussion protocol I'm scrambling for a QB off the WW and pickins are slim.

Geno v PHI
Minshew v PIT
DeVito @ NO
Levis v HOU

I nabbed Geno, but am nervous because his status is still up in the air, and he plays on MNF...

Geno is the best option among all those QB's

O/U is 47 1/2 points

and the Eagles D/ST has been shredded the last 2 weeks

Browning would be my 2nd choice

my QB dilemmas are not quite as bad:

Stafford or Tua -- planning to go Stafford

---

Mahomes or Jordan Love

this team squeaked into the 6th spot in the playoffs. Kind of playing with house money...and Love has a much better matchup

PPR league
Flex, start 1

Drake London at Carolina
Amari Cooper vs Chicago
Jaylen Warren at Indianapolis
James Conner vs San Francisco

I'm about to drive myself crazy trying to figure out which D/STs i should stash for the next 3 weeks

Guess my Keenan dilemma has been solved for me! He is OUT tomorrow.

Couple decent options

HOU playing TEN/CLE/TEN
IND playing PIT/ATL/LV
CHI playing CLE/ATL/ARI

Managed to pick up Stafford for the playoffs in both my leagues. Each league is 1 PPR. Kinda unsure who to start but looking for some advice.

Pick 1:
Josh Allen or Matt Stafford (League 1)
Dak or Stafford (league 2)

perhaps a blessing in disguise

this Chargers-Raiders game on Thursday is rather scary for the first round of the playoffs

Ekeler is still a must-start in PPR.

Jacobs and Adams are questionable

Q. Johnston and Jakobi could have big nights...or do nothing in a low-scoring clunker

the best reason to pick up Stafford...to make sure you don't play against him

would stay with Josh Allen and Dak -- expected to be a fairly high-scoring game

well this sucks with kennan out. and to top it off Kincaid is my TE who is listed as day to day with my backup being Everett who plays tonight. ****.

Not sure to roll the dice and hope Kincaid plays or just start everett? What yall think?

Start Everett...With Keenan out he could be in for a bigger role.

Or you could pick up Dalton Knox of the WW.

I started Everett last week and he did okay in place of Taysom, but Taysom's upside is worth waiting for this week for me.

I'm think I'm rolling the dice with Jakobi tonight. Have to start 2 WRs and my corps is very disjointed. Lamb, Jakobi, Doubs, JSN. Choice this week was between JSN and Jakobi.

No Hebert tonight so plan accordingly

First round of the playoffs.

1. Pick one QB. 6 point passing TDs:

- Stafford vs Wsh
- Tua vs NYJ
- Goff vs Den

2. Pick 2 (1 needs to be a WR). Non-PPR:

- Ridley vs Bal
- Ty Chandler @ Cin

- Lockett vs Phi
- Diontae Johnson @ Ind
- Jerome Ford vs Chi
- Taysom Hill vs NYG

For those of us not in the playoffs and looking at next year, who are some potential keeper picks that might be available?

Off the top of my head maybe...

Keaton Mitchell
Tajae Spears
Zay Jones

Also check for anyone on IR that someone may have dropped like Nick Chubb or Anthony Richardson. If you've got an IR spot you can snatch them up as a keepers.

Something my main league does is only allow keepers to be drafted players. No players that ever touch the waiver wire during the season can be kept. We do $5 inflation year to year on keepers and cap keepers at 2/team and 2 years in a row of being kept. After 3 total years ownership they are no longer eligible to be kept. Takes a little extra bookwork to handle, but it's a fun system.

Stafford

Chandler
Taysom

Evan Engram vs BAL (he's gotten a ton of Kirk's targets)

or

Isaiah Likely at JAX

I should have been more clear. I need 1 of the 2 to be a WR. I have Ridley in currently then Chandler in the flex.

For TE, I have Njoku in but could swap for Taysom?

the Titans D/ST is looking like a strong streaming option every passing hour

Yeah I'm trying to see if any of the following DEFs are a better option than HOU v TEN

LAC @ LV
LV v LAC
LAR v WAS

Yes put Taysom in for Njoku, IMO.

Then for WR I'd go Lockett personally. Toss up.

Flex go Chandler.

Start Davante Adams tonight or cross my fingers for Nico Collins. I'm thin at WR and don't have another option other than those two.

I picked up Odell for that reason. My WRs are Adams, Nico, Puka, Odell. I have been only starting 2 as I have 3 good RBs. I think Nico is a sit this week, hasnt practiced and also with Stroud possibly out. Between those two, play Adams if he is active (even better in ppr). He has been getting around 10 targets a game. I haven't decided which 2 to start between Puka, Odell, Adams. Plan to look at updates before kickoff.

Outlook is not good for Nico playing this week.

I'd go with Adams

Josh Jacobs inactive for the Raiders

Need two of the following Jahmyr Gibbs Aaron Jones Breece Hall Devon Achane Keaton Mitchell and Tyjae Spears leaning Gibbs and Hall here not sure Achane will go and idk if I can trust AJ yet fresh off of his injury.

Gibbs and Hall, makes sense.

Chargers may be mailing it in tonight

Raiders up 21-0 in the 1st

TD catch for Jakobi

Chargers are mailing it in tonight

42-0 Raiders at the half

Ekeler poised to mega-bust
