Congrats big boy
I hope so, I have Dell as my wr2 this week due to bye weeks and JJ not getting back yet. Along with Josh Downs out I'm running him and Diontae Johnson this week.

I'm running Dell out there in one league too cause Puka is on bye. He's been insanely boom or bust, but my god, the booms :swoon: Bengals D is good but Stroud is balling the hell out and I have no trouble seeing a shootout brewing

I thought I saw that Houston had a ton of dudes injured today. I didn’t look too closely, but I would temper that with the health of the OLine

I’m running with SEA defense and hoping they do better than the 1 point they got me last week.

My problem is I need to pick one of these three in my flex spot.

McLaurin @ SEA
Jakobi Meyers v Jets
Tank Dell @ CIN

Leaning Dell since Jets have a tough D and I’m running with the Seattle D, so if McLaurin goes off then I get hurt in the other end. Can Dell and Stroud keep it up?

I would probably lean McLaurin, not that Dell is a terrible option or anything. I cannot help but think there is some sort of fantasy football fallacy here, he will do whatever he does independent of what defense you have, a TD still counts against your defense whether he is in your lineup or the bench. That logic holds up for a weekly fantasy thing where you are competing against 100,000 people and need a perfect lineup, in a standard H2H matchup you just want to play your best players.

Yeah this is fair and something to watch going into the weekend. The counterpoint would be their OL has been injured as hell all season anyway and it hasn't hindered Stroud much. It seems to have had a much worse effect on the run game.

Houston defense looks to have gotten the worst of the injuries

For all he's been maligned this season Najee's been trending in the right direction the last few weeks. McLaurin and Lockett continue to feel like a coinflip, both offenses have a lot of mouths to feed

I'm probably starting Lockett (see below) and don't feel good about it, I would probably go McLaurin here, I think you'll get the most productivity per opportunity with him, even with Dotson eating catches.

SPEAKING OF WHICH....

I need a ranking of these options in .5 PPR:

DJ Moore v CAR (tonight)
Tyler Lockett @WAS
Jordan Addison vs NO
Jahan Dotson v SEA
Jerome Ford @BAL

Gotta start 1 of these three in ppr:

DJ Moore @ CAR
J. Dotson @ SEA
T. Dell @ CIN

Leaning Tank Dell - Dotson and Tank are basically equal but the little ESPN shadow report thing has Tank with a lot better match ups, and obviously coming off of that huge game last week.

DJ has been bad with Bagent but idk Carolina is pretty bad and Bagent has been improving, he can string together 3 quarters then melts down when defenses stop trying to blitz him and make him make hard throws. I think he's gonna improve and CAR is bad but I don't want to bank on him figuring out his deep game since last week. I feel like DJ Moore with Bagent is just banking on a YAC miracle homerun or two, otherwise he's gonna put up 6 points.

Let me know if anyone has any thoughts.

Moore and Lockett. After that it's a bit muddy but I have to think Dotson has a slight edge over Addison with the Vikings QB instability. Ford feels like a start-him-if-you-have-to RB and would be fine if you only think you need 8-10 points but doesn't have a ton of upside.

Dj Moore v Carolina
Jameson Williams @LAC
Tyjae Spears @TB
James Connor vs ATL


Currently starting DJ Moore, was hoping fields would be back but looks like bag man gets another week.

James Connor would be the swap imo, but he may not play as he's coming off IR this week and is still limited in practice (probably rep management though). This could be a week Jamo catches 3 balls with one being a 70 yd td tho!

Full PPR pick one:

Logically I'd think the answer is Chuba, but it's Thursday and the Panthers are bad. But also Chicago is bad and the Cleveland D is good.

They're both in a split but Chuba is bad and on a bad offense.

I'm starting him tonight and if I had any other options out there I wouldn't be.

I need a fill in WR2 because of byes/injuries. I have Jahan Dotson, but with the Higgins injury news and Chase being questionable, I have to pick up Tyler Boyd instead, right? It's 1 PPR.

I'd run Boyd before Dotson in this case. Washington is playing in Seattle which really doesn't help the matchup there.

Got an absolute swing for the fences here at a Kelce-less TE fill week that y'all might like: picking up/starting Irv Smith. My logic is, the Texans got clowned last week by a nobody Tampa TE, Higgins is out, and Chase will be limited. Will this work? Probably not!

Davante Adams vs NYJ

Hoping Adams finally gets off the ground but that's a tough ask against the Jets D. Tank is boom or bust. Ridley is boom or bust but more bust this year. Leaning Dell and Ridley in the hopes that both have huge games.

Hunt has looked good but he's been storing TDs and I'm kinda leery he keeps that up only getting ~30% of snaps. I Guess Brown? With Nico Collins out and Woods either out or limited somebody has gotta get those targets.

Woof. If you need more of a gamble, think you stick with those, but if it's predicated to be close I might take the lower bound of Adams. Tank's floor is just like, nothing.
