RosterWatch Computer Love: Week 6

It was a cockamamie return for the RW Computer in Week 5, and trust us, he’s been disciplined. Engineers from Belize apparently misfired his circuitry during his flight back home for the NFL season.

As ashamed as he is for recommending Allen Hurns as a WR1 option in Week 5, he hasn’t been doing much talking this week. However, we’ve told the little guy he needs to press on. It’s still early in the season and we all know that he gets sicker and sicker as more data is available to him. We were able to get a few nuggets of Computer Love out of him this week, and we’ve made note of his sparse comments here.

These are players the computer seems to love far more than the general expert consensus.

Steve Smith Sr

– PC still loves Steve Smith as a sick WR1
– All measures of central tendency show a double-digit player
– Almost 10 targets per game, and non-TD dependent
– Still averaging almost 10 ppg even when not counting his TDs on the season
– In a sick matchup per matchup tool vs old division foe

Emmanuel Sanders

– PC’s No. 5 WR on the week
– Blowing the PCs mind in all statistical categories
– 11 point median supports 11 pt average, even without scoring a single TD on the season.
– Great matchup per matchup tool
– 10.5 targets per game

Golden Tate

– PC’s No. 10 WR on the week
– Averaging same pts per target as Dez Bryant and Julio Jones
– Non-TD dependent, he’s been a 10-point player all around
– Obviously Calvin looks shaky to go this week, but the computer didn’t even know that before making his prediction

Brian Quick

– PC’s No. 12 WR on the week
– Tough matchup per matchup tool, but the PC told us last week- He’s been a lock for double digit points (11 pt median / 12.6 ppg)
– Slightly TD-dependent but team’s best red-zone target and vertical threat
– Does the most with his looks

    In a 12 – team PPR league, who should be my RB2? S. Ridley or Storm Johnson?

      chadack01-

      Really like Storm, glad you own him. For this week, still gotta roll Ridley out. Still too many questions about the Jags run game that are completely out of Storm’s control. Good luck, and pray that Bill Belichick doesn’t swindle you.

    Team: Power Rangers

    Who do I start:
    keenan Allen, terrance williams or mike evans?

    Also/ or, do I pick up Cecil Shorts if he is available? My other WR are K. Benjamin, Allen, Williams, Evans, Hunter Mega(disappointment)tron
    If so, do i drop Doug Martin, CJ SPiller or P. Thomas to do it?

    Any guidance great.

      PowerRangers,

      Terrance Williams

      No, we would not drop those guys for Shorts. Thomas is expendable if necessary, but not for Shorts. Good luck.

    PPR league, I have McCoy, Ball, Jennings, Ingram, and just picked up Hillman this week. Would you drop Hillman and pick up Helu to play this week? Also, Rainey is available, would you grab him to play over either of those 2?

    Also need 3 of these 4, same PPR league. Jeffrey, Cruz, Roddy, and Sanu.

      xraytakr-

      Yes, we hate Hillman for a number of good reasons. Helu is a decent low-end flex play this year, understand it- don’t be afraid of it- BUT – Rainey is your guy here.

      Alshon, Roddy, Cruz good luck

      1. ↓ Post By xraytakr

        I just meant this week between Hillman, Helu, and Rainey. Do you still like him the most of the 3?
