More injuries occurred this past week.

The two most interesting waiver possibilities are probably Tyreek Hill and Will Shipley. Outside of that there are mostly speculative stashes.
oh no

with Ken Walker on bye and Etienne on IR, i claimed Emanuel Wilson on waivers this week since Price is out and Charbo is out for probably one more week.

worth monitoring if Jamarr Chase and Tee Higgins - both injured last week - are going to be out, then Dohnte Meyers could be pelted with targets this week, but it sounds like at least Higgins might be back.

I have both Dak and Jared Goff. I also have Pickens and Laporta so there's a stack either way. The guy I'm playing against this week has Ceedee.
Play Goff or Dak? Thinking the Detroit game might be a more likely shootout but is the Ceedee factor enough to switch to Dak?
oh no

Dak might face the better pass defense, but indoors at home and Goff is on the road at AZ. I might consider Dak so you get the stack with Pickens and hedge a little of CeeDee's points against. You'll still win with LaPorta if that's a shootout.

Should I roll out Will Shipley immediately or go with Woody Marks? 12 team 1/2 PPR

Gave up on Pineiro and picked up Reichard. So everybody get rid of Reichard now and go get Pineiro

i had been stashing Tank Bigsby. it seems that Shipley was only an occasional 3rd down back when Saquan was healthy and primarily just a 3rd down back in the two games when Saquan left and Bigsby became the early down back. I don't see Shipley as an effective every down back in an offense that already utilizes Hurts in all short yardage situations and already struggles to run the ball, so I'd be nervous that recently promoted Dameon Pierce will immediately eat up a chunk of opportunities, especially early downs. ...and Philly is playing a tough Jax defense.

that being said, Woody isn't a great option either lol. all the sites will probably tell you start Will Shipley.

Yeah my RB2 situation is pretty bleak

I'm banking that the biggest upside to Shipley is his volume in the pass game.

Id go Woody.

Eagles lost both their starting LT and starting Center. They play a salty Jax defense in London. Meanwhile Texans play Tenn and should be able to create scoring opportunities. Marks got a td last time.

I think E. Wilson will be a good start for 2 more weeks

Seattle plays on Thursday night in week 6

Charbonnet probably returns for week 7

Two start sit questions this week:
1. QB: Tyler Shough vs vikings or Cj Stroud vs Titans (leaning stroud as I don't like the Vikings matchup)
2. Need 1 RB and 1 flex from Braelon Allen, Rj Harvey, Omarion Hampton, Tony Pollard and KC Concepcion. Leaning Allen as RB due to volume but no idea on flex.
oh no
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Stroud, Allen, and Concepcion if it's 1ppr scoring

It's .5. The hard one is Harvey vs KC. I like both this week.

I drafted Reichard but dropped him for McLaughlin when Kyler got hurt then dropped him for Shrader when Baker got hurt.

I picked up E Wilson last week so surprised he's still available many leagues

burned 7.5% faab on Price as and IR lotto stash since they passed on Mixon, he looked good early on but will will be uphill battle for substantial touch count over Charb/Wilson

and I have limited runway trying to backfill Achane with Kamara/B Allen
oh no

I was planning on starting Braelon Allen and Emanuel Wilson as my RBs this week. With Rhamondre potentially injured, I was going to start TreVeyon Henderson at Flex. ...but sounds like Rhamondre was practicing yesterday.

So my WR2 and flex options are (PPR scoring):

TreVeyon Henderson vs LV (Ken Walker tore up LV last week)
KC Concepcion @NYJ (i like the targets, snap share, and routes run involvement, but hasn't really produced FF points yet)
Rome Odunze @GB
Jordan Addison @NO (should have been a smash spot last week with JJ out, but now Addison has a hamstring soreness and JJ looks to be back on the practice field)
Mark Andrews @ATL (good for 5-7 targets and found end zone last week)
BTJ vs PHI in london - BTJ is pretty much non-start-able, but a hold until trade deadline in case he gets moved

...so do i go KC or Rome with Henderson at flex still or start KC and Rome and leave Henderson on the bench?

Odunze seemed to click better with Bagent last week -- Raymond was almost shut out as a result

would start Odunze for sure

tough to start Henderson when Rhamondre is active

Stevenson is much better in the new "success rate" metric for RB's -- which is why he plays at least 50% of the time

I'm starting to plan ahead for weeks 7 and 8 when I'm gonna be hit hard with BYEs.

With only 1 IR spot I can't keep carrying both Jonah Coleman and Jordan Mason. They're both eligible to return on the same date.

Who is the odd man out that gets the axe?
oh no
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
I'd lean towards Jordan Mason being the better ROS stash. He immediately goes back to a committee /split backfield role with the upside if Aaron Jones goes down. Coleman is a much more promising prospect, and Dobbins is injury prone, but he's still behind both JK and Harvey even when he's off IR. You're just waiting and hoping he takes over one or both by end of season, imo. Plus, everyone else will be dealing with bye and injuries- someone else in your league may not scoop him back up for a while after you drop him.
E

Pick 3: 1 RB, 1 WR, 1 Flex

Braelon Allen V CLE
David Montgomery @ TEN
Jameson Williams @ ARI
Deebo @ SEA

So far have Allen, Williams, Deebo - sitting Montgomery

So for Wk 7 when Alen is on BYE who would yall rather have?

Love @ DET
Cousins v LAR
Deshaun Watson @ TEN (can't believe I'm considering this one)
oh no
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
I'm dreading week 7 and Josh Allen's bye. I think Etienne will come off IR that week or maybe next week, so I might have to drop two players just to stream a QB like Stroud or Watson or Kyler.

that being said, for you, I like any QB facing DET. Go with forth with Love.

My options:

Moore (BUF)
Egbuka (TB)
McConkey (LAC)
Tucker (LV)
Wicks (PHI)

Need 2 WR and flex
oh no

DJ Moore is one of your three starters if he plays.

...the rest? I don't know. toss some coins.

Think you need to play egbuka unless you can cut wicks if he is out for a decent TE or wr off the wavier wire due to injuries.

I dont know why wavier gets auto corrected to Jarvis.
oh no

Javier is good at many things. But he probably can't help with that lineup.

Picked up the Cowboys defense in both leagues to go against an undrafted rookie quarterback.
