Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's Jimmy T.

Yeah I've been leaning LMurray or BMarsh. LMurray continues to be the best back in that backfield, but the shared touches continue to bug me.

e: Would you start any of those over DThom?

I would stick with DThom simply due to how wildly inconsistent Fitz has been. I wish I had time to watch game film because I would be interested to see what coverage has been like on Marshall without Decker lined up with him. I really think the two of them benefit from having each other on the field but have no evidence to support it.

1 PPR, need one for my flex

Devontae Booker vs. SD

Willie Snead vs. SEA

Thoughts? Fantasypros says Booker but figured I'd double check anyway
Booker, no question. DEN likes to run the ball and he should see a lot of carries. Jeffrey is talented but who knows how it'll go with Cutler coming back, especially vs. that MIN defense, and I don't like any mid-level receiver against SEA either.

Non-PPR, pick 1 Flex:

Will Fuller v Det
Mike Gillislee v NE

This is assuming McCoy is out, since as it stands the decision seems simple.

I would close my eyes, clench my teeth and butt, and go with Fuller. If there is one team in this league that Brock Osweiler can actually complete passes against it is Detroit. I am also not convinced of Gillislee's role if McCoy goes down. He did jack poo poo last week even though McCoy only had 8 carries and re-injured his hammy.

Edit:

My current flex is McKinnon but he didn't practice today which isn't a good sign. Who would you start in his place?

Half PPR, pick 1 WR and a flex

Dez Bryant vs PHI
Willie Snead vs SEA
Crowell vs Jets
Adam Humphries vs OAK
Gillislee vs NE
Gio Bernard vs WAS


They mostly all have bad matchups, so not sure which 2 to start.

This would be the defense to start Wilson against. This would also be the defense not to start Dak against.

Blue. But ew, those are bad options.

Pick 4 of the following 5 in 0.5 PPR

Ware @ IND
CMike @ NO
TY Hilton vs KC
Fitz @ CAR
Booker vs SD

Think the sit has to be Fitz or Booker. Maybe just run with Fitz this week and actually see how Booker handles a full workload before starting him?

I'd lets the match ups determine Fitz vs Booker. You don't really have a bad option here.

Standard scoring, looking to finalize my FLEX:

RB - Latavius Murray
RB - Mike Gillislee
WR - Larry Fitzgerald
WR - Alshon Jeffery
FLEX - Stefon Diggs @ CHI

Other options:
B. Powell @ CLE
R. Matthews @ DAL
Q. Enunwa @ CLE

Initially had Powell over Gillislee with Jeffery as my FLEX. Reshuffled quite a bit. Most 'experts' have Matthews over Diggs.

Think I prefer Adams with Cobb out. GB/ATL should feature a lot of passing especially with the Packs lack of a real RB. Whereas even assuming the Lions shithouse the Texans early, I'm not sure how much they'll lean on Riddick since their run game is garbage.

Ty Montgomery

Tavon Austin
Brandon LaFell

Add Montgomery, see if Miller is active and if there is any other news. I might play Montgomery regardless based on what they are saying about Miller, but it gives you the option to see his status.

Aug 24, 2010
Both Montgomery and Adams are probably better plays than Crowder this week, especially with Cobb out and Crowder also playing in London with Reed back.

I'd leave your flex spot empty up until the 1 pm games and check on Millers status beforehand if you can.

I have another league with Cobb, who is now out. I was already playing Montgomery, despite it meaning doubling up on an offense, would Adams still be a better pick up than Crowder?

I'd say so, for this week at least. London games are probably even more terrible than Thursday games.

Pick 5 (RB, 2xWR, 2xFlex) 1 PPR

T.Y. (KC)
Cooks (Sea)
Jordy (@Atl)
Booker (SD)
Forte (@Cle)
Blount (@Buf)
Diggs (@Chi)

TY is definitely starting.
Forte has been frustrating but seems like a no brainer start against Cleveland.
Booker seems like a no brainer start no matter what.
Diggs seems like a sit, he could go off at any moment but hasn't had a good game since week 2.

So I guess it comes down to playing Cooks and Jordy or sitting one of them for Blount. Both Jordy and Cooks getting attention from pro bowl corners plus Jordy hasn't done much last two weeks. Blount probably a higher floor but lower ceiling and very TD dependent since he doesn't catch a lot of passes.

Morning folks! With Cobb out I have:

Tyrell Williams @DEN (yikes)
D. Moncrief vs. KC

Leaning Williams despite Denver D because Donte will surely just have a settling-in type game, right? Edit: I didn't realize KC's D was one of the worst so idk anymore.

and for TE:

C. Fleener vs. Sea
Z. Miller vs. Min

I have Brees too which is why I'm thinking Coby.

Diggs matchup is theoretically better but the Lions run game is awful and I think that offense will have the ball for most of the game (lol Osweiler).

Easley Beasley and I say his as an Eagles fan.

As for which Carson? Carolina has the worse secondary. Not that Palmer has been great but I think he might be the safer play with how Philly's o line has been.
