This is pretty much a coin toss for me as there's a lot of questions around both with new surrounding casts, but i think i lean McLaurin, if the Eagles get a good lead Terry could eat.

This week of this year choices like this are so hard to make. Two split backfields against bad defenses when we have even less information than usual about each player's role in the offense. It feels like a total crap shoot.

Of these two I'd lean Scott, since we saw what he looks like with Sanders out last year. Inconsistent, but capable of some big games. Taylor we really have no idea about yet, and noise from Colts HQ is that he'll just be spelling Mack to start. Who knows if that's true, and he's definitely a better player than Scott, but that plus the injury to Quentin Nelson would keep me in the Scott camp. Very tough call, though.

Better PPR RB2 Sanders replacement?

Brieda @ NE
Akers v DAL

I'm thinking Brieda because he'll catch all the passes from the Miami backfield. LA's backfield is pretty muddled at this point. But nearly every predictor says Akers.

Week 1 drives me crazy, because we have no info. Especially this year with no preseason games. Like, for 2 flex spots, 1PPR:

Calvin Ridley vs. Sea
Todd Gurley vs. Sea
Julian Edelman vs. Mia
Robert Woods vs. Dal

I wait on Edelman until I see what the new Patriots offense under Cam looks like, right? I get nervous putting so many eggs in the Atlanta basket, but I guess I already did that when drafting.

Thinking about injuries, picking 2 FLEX in .5 PPR

Stephon Diggs vs NYJ
Boston Scott @ WAS
David Montgomery @DET
Jerry Jeudy vs. TEN

Diggs is most likely a start, so it's really figuring out Montgomery's injury status and/or which handcuff benefits most from a starter injury - Boston Scott or Jerry Jeudy

Scott Justice: Jul 15, 2007; Hot Justice just sounds better

PPR pick 1

Marlon Mack @ JAX
Mark Ingram vs CLE
Kerryon Johnson vs CHI
Latavius Murray vs TB

In every ranking I look at, Mack, Ingram, and Johnson are all neck and neck. I'm leaning Ingram because I know the Ravens love to run the ball.

I'm starting Barkley, that's why you don't have to pick 2, so don't feel bad for me.

If it were me I would do Brieda even if it werent PPR. We have no idea how Akers is going to be used - he could get zero touches, while I think we can be confident that in a timeshare Brieda will get touches and especially catches.

What round did you draft Woods in 3rd or 4th, maybe 5th? And you dont want to play him against the Dallas D? The Rams traded Cooks away and his replacement is a 3rd round rookie who may share time with another (inconsistent) WR Reynolds for a bit. Woods will see lots of targets. I agree with your assessment of Edelman though. For the other flex I cant decide between Gurley and Ridley because Gurley should get catches too, but Sea has a good run D. I guess I would lean Gurley if you still believe in him?

The Jaguars could have the worst defense in football this year so Mack wouldnt be a bad play, but Ingram is good and as you say the Ravens run the ball a lot. I think your decision should be one of those two but its hard to say which.

I like Fitz but it could just be name recognition talking. Fitz is a reliable starter and I think he'll see catches simply due to volume.

Bud posted:

I agree that its a coin toss I am really torn but if it were me I think I would do Hunt just because Hunt can confidently be handed the ball as well as catch while I feel like Cohen might as well be a WR.

AAAAA! Real Muenster: Jul 12, 2008; My QB is also named Bort

I'm just going to post my whole roster because I'm still not sure about this:

I think this is what I want to do, but I am also tempted by Gibson because the Eagles D is banged up and Rivera likes to pound the rock. But, the Patriots lost like 50% of their starters on D to FA and Covid so I think Gesicki or Howard are also potential plays, but Miami has a new OC, a rookie LT, and they are on the road in New England for game 1 in a season that had no preseason so they also scare me. I am confident about sitting Dillon (I drafted him to sit on him as a potential keeper or if there are injuries in GB) and Robinson (I'm a Jags fan but Colts have a great run D and Jags will be throwing it a lot when they inevitably end up behind).

Goedert, but it's TE so you'll be on a hope and a prayer anyway. WAS is the worse defence so take that matchup.

I really like Sanders this year as the Saints haven't had a WR2 of his caliber. Not sure I see any other changes I'd make there unless you like Gesicki over Jonnu. Jonnu is probably his team's #2 receiving threat though.

Re: Sanders - yeah I think he could end up being amazing this year since Brees will have a second WR worth looking at.
Re: Gesicki vs Jonnu: I am really high on Jonnu this year because he did well last year despite being behind Walker and dealing with half a season of Mariota throwing; with no more Walker and Tannehill entrenched and apparently really efficient, I think Jonnu could be amazing this year and completely agree that he is their #2 pass catching threat. Gesicki I'm iffy on because of the aforementioned new Mia OC, LT, and being on the road in NE so I am content to let him sit a week. My luck he'll go off though.

kiimo posted:

I think Hayden Hurst could be a top 5 TE this year and is the only other TE other than Jonnu Smith that I was targeting in my drafts that wasnt one of the known greats. I think I would lean Hurst this week but dont sleep on Jonnu (see above).

Corey is backing up Scott, right? Who knows how many touches he'll get. Steelers have a good D but NY will be throwing against them a lot and Shepard might score just based on volume/garbage time. Its tough but I personally would lean Shepard because he's a starter where Clement is a backup with an unknown number of potential touches.

Now that Golladay can be put on the IR for the week I can pick up a FA. PP1st scoring which ends up similar to PPR for WR:

Jalen Reagor @ WSH - would he be the second WR behind Jackson or would JJAW? Many of the data aggregator sites have not updates since he was announced active.
Paris Campbell @ JAX
Bryan Edwards @ CAR
N'keal Harry vs MIA

One of these needs to be in my starting lineup. I see them all as "wait and see what their usage is" before playing them, but I do not have that luxury. Currently have Reagor in, kind of thinking about Edwards?
