What kind of format is that? You'd have to have Achane, Mostart, Allen, plus every other top scorer to pull that off.

I put up 213 points this week and only 2 from Henry.

Well he has Devante Adam’s and Allen. It’s IDP and he had a good all around week that just added up. I don’t think I’ve ever seen 300+ before, but I would prefer it wasn’t against me!

Currently doing the best in my league with a 14-man league.

QB: J. Allen
RB: Polllard
WR/RB: Mostert
WR: K. Allen
TE: Hockenson
FLX: Collins
D/ST: 49ers
K: Moody


Feel like flex is my weakest spot, which I guess is a good thing. Any good pick-up recommendations from the WW? I do have McLaurin and will likely use him this week as the FL, but you can't go wrong with a good bench for future BYE's and injuries.

[DropIt]

Rashee Rice
Alvin Kamara

For

Devon Achane
Jordan Addison

In a 14 team league, if players are active and strong, all of the above are probably already rostered. You need to take longer shots, like undisputed #2 backs, who are an injury away from starting - like Jerome Ford in Cleveland stepping in for Chubb

Yeah, I'm in a 14 team league and that's basically why I had Ford on my roster from the draft. It's competitive, and all the top players in each position are long gone. Even on waivers now, you're looking at pure diamonds in the rough who were overlooked in the draft and only have a shot now due to injuries.

After suffering a bad beat last week, I got lucky that my opponent was paying attention to the sermon and forgot to replace Watson as his QB. A few years ago I trash talked this guy in a 7th and 8th place matchup because his name shares a lot of letters with Christ as the matchup was over Christmas. Basically stating my lack of belief in Christianity. He ends up going ballistic blowing up the league chat on Christmas eve about two days after my original message.

So him napping in Church and losing these matchup because of it make me snicker. But I kept quiet even though I'm so tempted to make a snide remark.

[EldrickOnIce]

In a keeper league, not based on draft position. So just keep 2 each year. One of my keepers was Chubb (and Adams). Really questioning keeping Chubb on my roster for whole season. Sounds like he won't be ready for start of next season, and who even knows if he will ever be dominant again. Which probably means he's worth anything to trade as well.
Your thoughts? I'm agonizing here! Lol

Edit to add

This is my current roster
Already really thin at RB

QB A. Richardson IND
RB D. Montgomery DET
RB D. Pierce HOU
RB K. Mitchell BAL
RB N. Chubb CLE
WR D. Adams LV
WR P. Nacua LAR
WR B. Aiyuk SF
WR Z. Flowers BAL
WR R. Doubs GB
WR J. Smith-Njigba SEA
WR C. Godwin TB
TE S. LaPorta DET
K J. Sanders MIA
DST M. Dolphins
DST N. Orleans Saints

[Sylvanfan]

You have good talent at WR, and even Richardson as a later pick. So if you can get anything for Chubb I'd move him.

I'm trying to figure out what to do with my Dallas defence. They have SF, Chargers bye coming up. If I drop them they'll get claimed. But with Lockett and Keenan Allen on bye this week I am dipping into my receiver depth. So I really don't have space to carry a second defence, and the waiver options are pretty bad anyways as Pittsburgh is the only one I see as maybe doing better this week.

Does Jacobs for Kupp seem reasonable as a trade? Kupp just played his first game so the sample size is small but Jacobs has been trash so I'm looking to dump him.

[Sylvanfan]

In PPR or half PPR format getting Kupp would be okay. Although Jacobs is still getting volume at a position where few guys do. Whereas Reciever has far more depth.

I’d absolutely take Kupp.

[MillerTime GFG]

Man I hate fantasy. Draft strategy this season was to get two WRs early, as I had 1.02. Got Jefferson and AJ Brown. Ended up getting Dobbins, who of course is out for season.

Wake up this morning to Jefferson out for minimum 4 weeks. Achane - same thing. F u fantasy gods.

My biggest concern with Kupp is that obviously he is just getting his season started but also that Nacua has really proven himself as a quality WR so he might eat into Kupp's targets significantly.

While I could somewhat agree with the concern, I think Kupp is always going to get targets regardless. Nacua only makes things tougher for opposing teams, Stafford is going to throw to either guy. These two receivers may very well get the Rams a playoff spot at this rate with how weak the NFC is.

I would be worried if I had someone under Kupp and Nacua, like Atwell or Higbee. Kupp and Nacua imo will always get targets.

[Sylvanfan]

Should I take a chance on Jaylen Warren and trade a guyblike Zay Flowers for him, or will Pittsburgh keep Matt Canada snd waste their offence on Najee Harris?

My current WR where I start 3 plus a flex in PPR are

Tyreek Hill
Keenan Allen
Christian Kirk
Zay Flowers
Tyler Lockett
Drake London
Diontae Johnson

Whereas I am thin at Running Back with Pollard, R. Stevenson, J.Taylor, and Charbonnet. Come week 11 the Pats and Colts both have a bye.

[EldrickOnIce]

I have Flowers. I think people think his upside is higher than he will actually realize.
I'd do a deal if I were you. Good luck

[Slava]

I'm procrastinating here, so give me a trade opinion, please:

I send: Camryn Bynum, Joe Burrow, Mark Andrews and a 5th rounder

I get: K'von Wallace, Kareem Hunt, Jeff Wilson, Dak Prescott and a 1st

This is an IDP league (hence Bynum) and with keepers that 1st is basically looking at the ~45th best player kind of thing.

[Sylvanfan]

Don't really know what IDP's score. But assuming it's one per roster start, it's likely a very deep and unpredictable position.

Hunt is off the street due to Chubb injury. Jeff Wilson might be Miami's 3rd option when everyone is healthy, and Dak...I think his upside atvthis point is not much.

I'd keep Burroe and Andrews.
