I'd definitely start Brisset. He put up 20ish or more last 2 weeks, against pretty good defenses, in what should probably be same sort of chase situation. That game has the highest over/under in league this week at 54.5 points, and an implied total of 24+ points for the Cards. You did good with the pick up and trust it, imo
Good luck!

I have JSN and Nabers, but obviously Nabers done for the year. If I can swing it, should I trade my first in a keeper leage for another top WR like Puka, St Brown, etc?

Haven't played enough Keeper, but I'd be concerned with Puka's injury history. Seems like he's banged up every single week. St. Brown is pretty high floor, but the Lions offence has been a bit hit or miss this season. If it's a PPR league that favors both of those guys as they are really high volume.

I think it depends on what type of chance you have to win this year. JSN and Nabors should be be legit WR1's next year and JSN might be the first one off the board. The Rams do have the Lions, Seahawks, and Falcons in Fantasy playoffs so that's a tough final 2 rounds for pass defences. Lions are Rams, Steelers, and Vikings which should be a bit easier for WR's after the first week.

Having Jonathan Taylor on your fantasy team makes up for a lot of otherwise average drafting, suspect roster management and bad sit/start decisions.

I played the team in my league who has Taylor last week. That worked out okay for me. I've played him twice this year...in his two worst weeks so I won both of those matches. I'm not scheduled to play him again and his current owner is 2-8 after this week and will miss the playoffs. Hopefully they bodes well for you.

I don't think I misunderstood. I've had to play against a team that had Taylor twice so far and won both those matches. So thus far I've had crazy good luck against him as I played him in week 4 when he didn't have a great game. That guy foolishly traded him to another team after that, and I played that guy last week. I can't imagine there are too many teams in 12 team leagues who had to play against JT twice..and won both the matchups because nearly every other week he's singlehandedly won the match for the team that has him.

But my voodoo curse against him shouldn't come into play again this year. This league hands out harsh punishments for finishing last, and most people care more about not being last than winning. So the guy who has him now isn't letting him go even though with 8 losses...he's pretty much guaranteed to miss the playoffs.

Unless you had some other horrid injury luck and or matchup luck. If you have Taylor you should have a winning record. He has 3 TD's in 5 of the last 8 games...the two where he had zero..happened when I played his team. That is just dumb luck.
