    Stevie Johnson doesn’t make the list?

    1. ↓ Post By Dorian Colbert

      we’re assuming he’s already owned, but if he’s not, he would be after williams and jones.

    Love the waiver wire cheat sheet but noticed for TE and DEF dwayne allen (still avbl in leagues I am in) and Ravens and 49ers (still avbl in league i am in). Just wondering where they’d be ranked and % of fab to devote.

      Hi Yeager,

      The waiver wire cheat sheet shows only players who are owned on average of 50% or less in all fantasy leagues. Allen is owned in most leagues and is not available on most waiver wires. Allen and both of those defenses would be in the <5% category with the other TEs and Defenses.

      1. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

        That being the case with allen and the defenses I should still only devote 5% or less of my fab budget for them?

        Also I posted the following on twitter, but didn’t see a response.

        I have vd as a te on a team, but green, ebron, allen and richard rodgers (whom I have on another team but thinking of cutting) are avbl. Would you cut vd for any of these?

        Also I have cobb, marshall, john brown, stevie johnson, moncrief, and garcon on a team. would you cut any of them for perriman? I start 3 wr with a flex (normally a rb though)

    Our 12 team full point ppr league rosters allow a maximum of 4 RBs and 4 WRs.
    Current RBs: Le’Veon Bell, Justin Forsett, Shane Vereen, Devonta Freeman
    Current WRs: A.J. Green, Davante Adams, Brandon Marshall, Steve Smith Sr.

    Based off last night’s game, it seems like Devonta Freeman’s role is going to be the primary RB in passing situations. Would you consider it crazy to pick up David Johnson off the waiver wire to replace Devonta Freeman? Bishop Sankey, Duke Johnson, DeAngelo Williams, and Darren Sproles are already rostered. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    you guys are killing it! I wish I could help you guys promote your league to my buddies but that would take my edge! 160 pts in two leagues, thanks to you guys. Ok so I need your help in my 12 team standard scoring, dynasty keeper, salary cap league.

    I have- Qb- Russell Wilson $11/Teddy B $11
    Rb- L. Murray Ingram ivory $26 Abdullah $14 jstew $10
    Wr- John brown $2, Julio $39, $25 Sammy Watkins, $16 b. Marshall, $1 p. Dorsett
    TE- Cameron $6 Delane walker $2
    Def. Texans $3

    Best avail-Dalton, Alex smith, cj2k, vereen, josh Robinson, Dunbar, t. West, Langford, tavon Austin, Stevie Johnson, moncrief, Allen hurns, Brian quick. D. Fells?

    Thanks!

    1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

      We’d be looking at Stevie Johnson for sure, and Moncrief and Hurns behind that. Guys we would drop- Teddy, Dorsett, then possible either Walker or Watkins.

      Good luck!

    You guys helped me nail it in my keeper draft! Thanks. Standard league came away with:
    QB – Cam
    RBs – Lacy (kept in the 3rd), Martin, Ivory, Woodhead, David Johnnson, and Artis-Payne
    WRs- Demaryius (kept in the 2nd), OBJ (kept in the 18th), Amari Cooper, Steve Smith, John Brown, Funchess, Lockett and Benjamin in the 9th to stash on IR
    TE – Eifert.
    Took me to a 25 pt victory.
    Best available on waivers are RB – Lewis, K Williams, C Johnson and K Robinson WRS – Cotchery and Austin QB – Cutler, Dalton and A Smith.
    Not sure if it is worth dropping anyone to hit the waiver wire. I am thinking of holding with what I have now, but just wanted to get your view. Thanks!

  6. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

    Guys we would consider:

    Lewis, Williams, Cotchery, and any of the 3 QBs (Cutler will likely be highest at home in our final rankings this week)

    You can def drop Artis Payne, and if you wanted to we could live if you dropped Lockett or Steve Smith but don’t really think you need Cotchery. Would drop Artis Payne for one of those other RBs

      Thanks for all the help! Heading to the wire now.

    Would you stand pat? If not, who would you pick up and drop?

      1. ↓ Post By rw-BrCA2gIXA

        Thanks. What about Eifert?

        1. ↓ Post By Dorian Colbert

          eifert is a must add imo.

    1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

      Yes we would- might lean Duke

  9. ↓ Post By slamwise

    Would you suggest dropping Crowell for Duke Johnson? 12 team standard league. I also have McCoy and Karlos Williams, Ingram, J. Randle, Blount and Gio Bernard. Thanks!

    1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

      Very close call- we would keep Crowell for now. Is there anyone else you can drop?

    2. ↓ Post By Dorian Colbert

      Johnson hasn’t done enough to consider dropping crowell for him

  10. ↓ Post By jim

    Where is Terrance Williams on wr list?

    1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

      Williams was about 75% owned across most fantasy leagues- the waiver wire cheat sheet includes players who on average are owned in 50% or less of leagues- so it’s likely they are actually avail

    I have the following wr’s on a team that you start 2 wr and flex (normally I start a rb here): ant brown, cooks, stevie johnson, eddie royal. brandon coleman is available and I was thinking of picking him up. My hesitation is already having cooks. I do have a claim in currently for moncrief and dropping royal with a bid of 15$ out of a 150$ fab budget.

    Just wondering you thoughts on this and my current waiver claim. Also have a claim in to drop richard rodgers for jordan reed with a bid of $15 I think. Would you bid more on this or hold rodgers? delanie walker, ebron, green, and heath miller are available as well if I keep the claim and don’t get reed.

    1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

      We would not hold Rodgers, but we would not bid nearly that much for a TE considering the plethora of guys on your wire. Also think 15 is a bit high for Moncrief until we know exactly how long Hilton is out. We’d drop Royal for Coleman

      1. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

        Ok I will switch my bid or reduce it anyways. Coleman is avble, but would you still go after him even though I already have cooks?

        1. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

          if i don’t get coleman, would you cut royal for amendola or beasley.

          1. Post By Dorian Colbert

            maybe beasley in a ppr

  12. ↓ Post By alexbrenn

    QB: Rivers
    WR: AJ Green, Evans, DeSean, Watkins, Randle, Moncrief
    RB: Charles, Morris, Blount, Duke Johnson
    TE: Witten, Gates
    D: HOU

    I’ve got waiver claims in for Eli (drop Duke J) and MIA (drop HOU)
    And a trade offer for Gates + depth WR for Melvin Gordon.

    Smart moves? Anything else I should look at (10-team standard).

    1. ↓ Post By Dorian Colbert

      the waivers are fine. which wr?

      1. ↓ Post By alexbrenn

        Offered Randle, willing to part with Moncrief if that’s the counter.

        1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

          Depends on how much you need Moncrief this week- if you can get by without him and can score Gordon

  13. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

    I know this is getting a little crazy maybe, but would you play vereen and or woodhead over gore (home vs jets) and jstew (home vs texans)? ppr league

    1. ↓ Post By FootballKingz

      We would prob keep JStew in- would certainly strongly consider Woodhead over Gore in a PPR

      1. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

        ok i will keep jstew and put in woodhead over gore (have no prob doing that vs stout jets def line). I would need to fill my flex spot then with either: garcon, vereen, stevie, christine michael, or moncrief

  14. ↓ Post By flemdog

    12 man ppr league and I have the following on my roster;
    A.Cooper
    Edelman
    Stevie Johnson
    S.Watkins
    Hurns
    Taliaferro
    Karlos Williams
    H.Miller

    Cole Beasley is available in my league. According to the cheat provided by your website, Dallas WRS has good matchup vs Philly. With that being said do I drop anyone to pick Beasley up and can I insert him as a #3 wr this week or if not, what 3 wrs do I go with.

    Thanks

  15. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

    steve smith and allen robinson were dropped in my league. start 2 wr, 2rb, flex. I have antonio brown, cooks, stevie, royal for wr’s, and forsett, doug martin, abdullah, woodhead, latavius murray, and artis payne at rb. who would you cut to pick up either smith and or robinson? We have a $150 fab and I have 135 left. How much to bid?

    1. ↓ Post By Dorian Colbert

      i’d pick both of those guys up while dropping royal and payne. i’d bid 12 or 13 a piece.

      1. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

        Done Sir Done! well soon as they clear waivers that is.

  16. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

    trying to decide to play ameer abdullah or woodhead for flex in 12 man full point ppr? matchup tool says woodhead since bengals def vs bears is 4th best matchup, lions vs vikes is 16th best. also burfict is out at lb for bengals, but seems abdullah has even more upside and higher cieling than woodhead, but a lower floor. at least imo

      1. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

        thanks thats who I actually have in there now.
