Much more exciting wavier wire this week sadly due to injuries.

Jalen McMillan or Sterling Shephard (with Evans and Godwin hurt)
Juan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall (Aiyuk done for the season and Deebo is in the hospital with fluid in his lungs)
Juju is also out but mahomes can't support 1 WR at the moment so I'd avoid
Levis is out so titan pass catchers are no bueno. And this week the running backs should be benched too.
Tua is back this week? Designated for return but still hasn't cleared the protocol

Detroit Lions have a juicy match up vs the titans

Notable mentions that likely were rostered:
Keon Coleman. I have him but not truly buying the one performance. Though Cooper should draw way more attention.
Romeo Doubs
Cade Otton (TE) he has been alright in ppr. Targets have to go somewhere.
Cedric Tillman? See who starts if it is Jameson or DTR. Jeudy could be worth a roster as well

Somehow my 1-6 team now looks better on paper than my wife's 5-2 team. Too little too late though

Jameson Williams could face a 2 game suspension for performance enhancing drug policy.

My team has just been decimated by injuries. Really wish I had a crystal ball and knew whether McMillan or Shepard will be the guy. You know Baker is going to sling it so one of them has to have some value.

Rachaad, Bucky and Otton soared in value. I think Sterling will be more immediate value but the talent of McMillian will be end of season better value.

I need RB help bad. I offered to another guy in my league Diggs for Kenneth Walker. He has zero WR's and plenty of RB's. I'm hoping he takes a desperation bite at it.

Sitting at 5-2, highest scoring team in my league, but I just lost Godwin and Aiyuk, not to mention Fields getting benched

I would auto reject all trades from you going forward with such a bad offer.
Right now there is a ton of wavier wire WR juice because of injuries.

Is this a trade worth making? Sitting at 7-0 in 12 team PPR and looking at upgrading for better playoff matchups.

The Godwin and DK owner badly needs help at WR and I'm thinking about offering

Giving - Javonte Williams and Amari Cooper
Getting - Saquon

WRs - Diggs, Scary Terry, Amari, Deebo, JSN
RBs - Gibbs, Taylor, Williams, Davis, Allgeier

I'm hesitant to move Amari because WR is my biggest need but the thought of loading up with Saquon is tempting.
texagbeliever
How long do you want to ignore this user?
As someone who has saquon I'd probably do that deal.
If he maybe needs multiple wr could you try Javonnte, Diggs and JSN. To start the conversation.

I would do that and wouldn't look back.

I own Javonte and do not feel like there will ever be a point where I can comfortably rely on him. Was debating cutting him before he went off on TNF.

I would rather move Amari than Diggs because Diggs has some favorable playoff week matchups.

That WK 17 matchup Diggs has with Baltimore and that porous pass defense is enticing.
texagbeliever
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I can see the logic. I think you are overthinking match up vs a players role/skill. Amari has been unlucky with having TDs called back. He is going to get the ball alot.
oh no

Need a replacement for Jayden Daniels

Bo Nix v CAR
Jamies Winston v BAL
Geno Smith v BUF
Drake Maye v NYJ

Potential big time trade offer...

Team is 3-4 in a ten-man .5 PPR league.

QB: Hurts
RBs: Achane, Ken Walker, BRob, Javonte, Charbonnet, Ray Davis
WRs: AJB, Drake London, Tank Dell, Rome Odunze
TE: Njoku and Ferguson

Give: Ken Walker and BRob
Get: Justin Jefferson and James Conner
EliteZags

AG
anyone willing to buy low on Tank Dell after the goose? would just rotate in at WR3 along with JSN/Pittman

my RB5-7 are Rico, Bucky, Mattison

rather hold Rico, maybe Bucky who has a perceived value spike from the WR injuries but I feel it could limit that whole offense
texagbeliever
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I think I lean Nix. I don't think you will know Winston is the starter and if he is he might throw 2 picks and get the bench.
oh no
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Yeah. Included Jameis because Dorian Thompson Robinson is also apparently hurt and the matchup with BAL is good I guess

And who am I dropping to add Bo Nix?

Bucky Irving or Tank Bigdby?
texagbeliever
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Neither. Trade one for a better quality then nix.

You should not play a kicker or defense before dropping either of those 2. Most match ups aren't decided by <8points.

Is this a 2-3-1 rb,wr,flex?

I'd say yes. Basically ken walker for JJ.

could you throw in Charbonnet to get a slight upgrade from Conner back

2 RB, 2 WR, 2 FLEX, 1 TE.

I did it.

His other RBs are Chubba and James Cook, so not really haha I like holding onto Charbs given Walker's injury history.

Cooper Kupp on the trade block! Where would be his best fit?

I assume with the Bucs under his old OC from his 2022 Triple Crown season playing the role that Godwin was in?

KC has been reported as a potential destination if LA will eat most of his salary.

Well he declined Diggs/JSN for Saquon. Throwing in Javonte wouldn't be giving up too much on my end?

I'd be left with Saquon, Gibbs, Taylor, Allgeier, and Davis at RB and Cooper, Terry Mc, and Deebo at WR.

Would Pitts be a sufficient sub for Javonte? I'm kinda torn on doing a 3-1 even if it is for Saquon
texagbeliever
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Oh I always meant those 2 plus javonntae for Saquon.
Assuming you don't start more than 3 WRs or 6 total skill players (RB/wr)

I bet there are some decent players on the wire you can add to your team. At least you can look at a defense for playoff matches too

Don't sleep on Drake. He has been 20+ points since he has been the starter.

you gotta be some helluva salesman be able to get decent value for Javonte after 1 useable game, like someone mentioned he was near droppable before that, just his 3rd game >25ruyds

I wholeheartedly disagree. I've been playing him as a decent RB2 in a 12 team PPR. Very serviceable in that role.

If you dropped him you'd be regretting it.

He's racked up 18 targets in the last 4 games and has averaged over 5 YPC over that same span. He's got a stranglehold on that backfield and after his slow start he's slowly improved.

Not only was the production there but he looked the part last week. I think Denver is going to settle into a ground and pound offense that leans on their DEF to take pressure off of Nix.



texagbeliever

Isn't Javontae's YPC going from 2 to 5 at the exact same time the starting LT returned?

Also running qb's are a big boost to running backs.

Should I pick up Tua or Wilson to replace Fields? Streamed Rodgers last week thinking he'd be good with all those weapons and it was no bueno.

yup this is the kinda fairytale salespin needed, shining up junk


as a starting RB2 in any format he's singlehandedly lost half of anyone's matchups this season
Ag_07

You call it shining up junk...I call it realizing his potential.

But really I think he's a nice piece. You're in big trouble if he's your RB1 and you're depending on him to carry your team.

Definitely not droppable.
