    Yeah. I don't get it. I also have Corey Davis, Alshon Jeffrey, Chris Hogan as wr's.

    Along with Cam Newton, Trey Burton, George Kittle, Greg Zuerlien, and Jax Defense. My team is STACKED. I wish this was my $500 league, which is much more competitive.

    So I drafted Bell, got screwed on that but oh well.
    Need some advice, 1/2 point ppr league.

    2 backs
    2 wr
    1 flex

    Have McCaffrey, Coleman and Yeldon in flex
    Have Theilen, Cooks, Golladay and Funchess for WR
    Coleman and Yeldon are starting this weekend, beside Theilen who should I start at WR and should I switch Yeldon with one of the receivers? Any advice would be appreciated, decent money league

    I currently have two QBs on my roster - Rivers and Wentz. Normally I would just keep one, but I’m not sure Rivers can help me win a league with 6 pts per TD pass.

    I was thinking about dropping Wentz and picking up either Geronimo Allison, Golladay, or Marlon Mack. Would you rather have Wentz or one of these three?

    My team

    RB: David Johnson, Joe Mixon, Royce Freeman, Jamaal Williams, Kerryon Johnson

    WR: Devante Adams, Kenny Stills, Marvin Jones, Doug Baldwin

    I really like Rivers and usually don't like rostering 2 QBs, but Wentz is scheduled for contact and hate to lose him. That said, you could use help at RB now that Mixon is hurt, Freeman trending to RBBC and Kerryon stuck in DET's RBBC (and Blount is supposed to play and suspect he starts again). Do you only have one TE?

    Directly answering your question... not that into Mack, if you do make a move for one on your list I'd rather have Golladay. But still not enough to drop Wentz.

    Cooks could have a big day, but he should be covered by Peterson. Yeldon should have a good day since its almost certain he starts instead of Fournette. The only donwside is Belichek tried to take away the opponents number one option and that will be RB.

    A guy in our league anger dropped Josh Gordon... I'm #1 on the waiver list... if he goes to the Patriots I'm going to be a happy camper.

    DT had 11 targets, 5 catches and 18 yards. Emmanuel Sanders had only 4 targets, 4 catches, and 96 yards. What can you do?

    In my standard league I have the #1 waver position. Its a short bench league (5 players). I have Mixon, so I was thinking of adding Gio Bernard. But then I looked at the FA list... Kenny Golladay and Philip Lindsey.

    My RBs are Barkley, Gordon, Mixon, Conner, Kerryon Johnson, and Sony Michel. My WRs are JuJu, Cooks, Sanders, and Jones Jr.

    Thoughts on Lindsey? Seems tiny, and Freeman was supposed to be the guy there. RBs are so valuable, and it helps create a package opportunity for a WR1.

    Lindsay looks like the best back there so far. Opportunity is a problem with Freeman and Booker mixed in, but he looks like he could be getting plenty of touches.

    Bernard is always more of a PPR slanted must-add, but the Bengals have been playing well early. Doesn't really improve your roster much either.

    I'd pick up Lindsay or Gollday because they offer more upside for the season. Bernard isn't worth much if you are going to drop in 2-3 weeks.

    My standard team has Luck at QB (and no backup... short bench). Stay with Luck (did OK last week), or consider a change (best FAs: Bortles, Taylor, Fitzcraptrick, Keenum, Dalton, Prescott, Trubisky)?

    Anyone think the Bears defense will get 20 pts tonight? Asking for a friend...

    I think you should stick to Luck even though I'm not really sure how much longer the OL can protect him. If anything, I'm considering dropping Goff for Bortles but I feel like the NE game was fluke. Their DEF is so bad but all anyone talks about is their offense and Brady. Fitzpatrick is another enticing play this coming week since games with Pittsburgh is most likely going to result in a shootout.

    @HTM Probably not, it's going to require at least one pick 6, couple of TOs, and keeping the Seahawks out of the end zone to get 20 points.

    Couple of questions today. I'm in 10 team Standard league.

    1. I currently have Ajayi. Is it worth burning WW #2 for Clement as an insurance policy?

    2. What is Edelman's value in Standard? I have him stashed on my bench and was planning on using him for my Flex when he comes back.

    3. Is it worth keeping Goff for his relatively stable floor? I see people getting 30+ points with their QBn my league and thought maybe I should drop Goff for someone like Dalton or Fitzpatrick.

    4. Opinions on Marquise Goodwin? He's hurt to start off the season and there's not much I can do with how little value he brings ATM. Will he be the WR1 for Jimmy G when he comes back?

    Thanks in advance.

    1.) No. An insurance policy covers you 100% from the unforeseen. Clement replacing Ajayi weakens your overall roster as a whole. Handcuffing is sub-optimal in almost every instance.

    2.) Edelman is high-floor WR3 in standard. Will usually get you a bankable 7-10 points. TDs not his strong suit.

    3.) Goff is a borderline QB play in any 10 team league. If there is a QB on the wire with a much better matchup, pull the trigger. I'd be cautious on Dalton as anything but a streamer. Fitzpatrick looks like Jesus right now.

    4.) I think the jury is still out on Goodwin's value. He was a popular mid-round target because by all accounts, he was clearly Jimmy G's #1 target throughout camp and people expected that to carry over to the season. I don't think he will be a WR1 even if he does get back on track. He was always going to be a WR2 at best. If you can afford to wait and see on him, I'd wait until you have at least a sample of what he's going to bring.

    Thanks so much @moestavern19! I think I got a better idea of what I want to do with my WW’s.

    Kerryon Johnson is looking pretty good. He may be someone that could be started in the 2nd half of the season. I'm holding him for now.
