PRO Trashman’s 2018 Week 7 Flex Rankings: RB, WR, TE

Trashman HeaderOften times, there is nothing tougher (or more important) than deciding who your weekly flex-plays are. It can be a mind-numbing experience having to make cross-positional projections.

This season, our RosterWatch PRO community will have personal and exclusive access to our very own disgusting Trashman, who has carefully curated his personal weekly flex rankings in order to help you in gaining input about your roster decisions.

PLEASE Keep in mind, these are not our official RosterWatch Week 7 rankings, but we’ve learned over time to pay extra-special attention to what the Trashman might have up his filthy sleeve – and where he stacks up players against one another for the coming weekend’s slate cross-positionally.

Our OFFICIAL rankings page here on the site will continue to be updated through the day Saturday and Sunday morning as more information comes in and we become more comfortable with player slotting. In the meantime, have a look at how the Trashman sees the Week 7 slate shaking out – as his inputs to our formula are a key (albeit disgusting) component.

(Based on .5 PPR scoring).

    Should I go with E.Sanders tonight or J.Edelman. Also do you think think that Arizona would be a good streamer defense this week. I currently have chicago D.

    Thanks as always you guys have helped me all season from the draft to pickups and starts to a 6-0 record with most points.

      I like edelman. Arizona should be solid. I like indy too.

    ROS, standard: Marvin Jones or DeSean Jackson?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      Jackson has the upside. I like him if you’re ok with his floor

  3. ↓ Post By Uncle_Maynard

    .5ppr I need 2 out of these 3, Njoku, Kittle, Taylor Gabriel. They all rank pretty close. Starting 2 TE’s seems maniacal

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i’d go with gabriel and njoku

  4. ↓ Post By FriedWithPride

    Thank you Trashman on recommending T. Gabriel last week. You helped me secure the W! Can you please help a me do it again?

    Stafford or Beathard
    And
    2 of these three: M Sanu, T Gabriel, A. Callaway

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      no prob. i’d go stafford, sanu, gabriel. good luck this week

    Do I use Christian Kirk or kerryon Johnson for my Flex this week? .5 pt ppr.

    or I could swap out Marvin Jones for Christian Kirk as my wide receiver 2 and play kerryon in my Flex

    Thoughts?

    Winston or Wentz. The take on the Ws. I see that Winston is ranked a bit higher but my concern is lack of consistency (recollection from last year) and a tougher matchup than Wentz. Wentz on the other hand is getting into top form and is home v. Panthers.
    So my Q is did I convince RW to change its rankings on the Ws?
    Thanks

    Standard-Non PPR scoring. I have been offered T. Hill and Crowell for B. Cooks and A. Collins. I have Evans, Robinson, Edelman as my other WR’s and Gurley, Mixon, Carson for RB. I’m not thrilled about losing Cooks and I usually run Collins in the Flex. Do you think it is worth it for Hill.

  8. ↓ Post By Trashman

    winston just has a bit of higher upside, as the tampa run game is atrocious, and he’s got to throw it up to one of the better wr corps in the league. i’m fine with you going with wentz here though

  9. ↓ Post By HeavyHittaz

    Is trading Mixon and Cmac too much for Gordon? My rb’s are Barkley Mixon cmac and conner

    1. ↓ Post By gr8one_22@hotmail.com

      I wouldn’t make that trade, you are already set at RB. Use that excess to trade for a WR or something different if you need it.

  10. ↓ Post By HeavyHittaz

    I can only start 3 of them

  11. ↓ Post By sallen@sccoast.net

    really stuck , need 2 in a .5 ppr A Collins, T Yeldon, J Howard, L Murray ?

  12. ↓ Post By Longlooper

    Drop Hines for Mack in standard ?

  13. ↓ Post By Longlooper

    Should I Drop N Hines for Mack in standard ?

  14. ↓ Post By Cancop1

    Start Winston over Brees in Baltimore?

  15. ↓ Post By james

    i’m only a 60-40 favorite according to yahoo.

    thank you. radio gold.

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      the ravens are tough to score against, and i think kamara will be more involved this week.i wouldn’t start him over tate

  16. ↓ Post By Brflesh

    Deep 12 team Half PPR. Would you trade away:
    -Deshaun Watson
    -Doug Baldwin
    -Cam Meredeth (I also have Tre’quan Smith)

    I would be receiving:
    -Ben Roethlisberger
    -TylerLockett
    -Willie Snead

    1. ↓ Post By Brflesh

      I could also get Mostert instead of Lockett or Snead if I prefer that.

      1. ↓ Post By Brflesh

        Thought so. Thanks

  17. ↓ Post By gr8one_22@hotmail.com

    Should I start Luck over Rivers this week?

  18. ↓ Post By Jhintz2010@gmail.com

  19. ↓ Post By CBrown@aplusconst.com

    Tre Burton or Jordan Reed 12 team PPR

    Week 9 Bye issue with short bench:

    I Am deciding between;

    Javorious Allen vs the Steelers, or

    LaGarrette Blount vs the Vikings.

    Or lastly I could select

    Ronald Jones vs the Panthers. (don’t like this option)

    1/2 point PPR

    Which way do you lean?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      not very. hyde is insurance.

  22. ↓ Post By HeavyHittaz

  23. ↓ Post By RTJB

    Ppr need 1 crowell, marvin jones, stills or snead? And Brees or wentz?

  24. ↓ Post By Brianobarad@gmail.com

    Have your rankings been updated yet with Chubb?

  25. ↓ Post By rw-unOFKmh96

    Takin Out the Trash, 4-2, 10 team full pt. PPR. picked up Chubb. Now have Elliot, Chubb, Michel and Coleman. I dropped Ito for Chubb. So I have a second rb and flex position available.
    Which 2 would you start this week?
    I am leaning going with Chubb and Michel. What is your opinion Trashman?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i think you have the right mindset. chubb and michel it is

  26. ↓ Post By yeagermeister

    with the chubb news, does he move alot higher than Josh Gordon in trashman flex rankings? Currently 1 below…matchup tool loves the Pats wr match up but also as equally browns rb matchup… need Gordon or chubb in flex

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      gordon is the upside play so i like him where he is. chubb seems a bit safer though, as far as his floor goes

  27. ↓ Post By ckhounds

    Standard league. Who to start? Golden Tate, Tarik Cohen, or Marquise Goodwin. I can only start 1.

  28. ↓ Post By gopher1409@hotmail.com

    Half PPR 10-team
    3 flex spots to fill

    Woods
    Golladay
    Yeldon
    Smoky Brown

    Brown is on my bench right now, but that NO matchup is looking awfully juicy…

  29. ↓ Post By SkolVikes

    Hey guys. Can you look at my post from oct 18 at 5:58 pm. Never got a response to my trade question. Thanks

  30. ↓ Post By ehogue16

    Would you drop Chicago defense for the Bills,Cowboys, or Ravens? Thanks.

  31. ↓ Post By Bob Goodbread

    No disrespect Trashman, but where are the official Rosterwatch flex rankings to be found?
    The Rosterwatch weekly rankings include a tab for flex but it has no content when I click on it. The positional rankings show up as expected, but not the flex rankings..

  32. ↓ Post By Brianobarad@gmail.com

    Chubb is ranked 126 on the spreadsheet?
