    Starters (PPR): Deshaun, Hopkins, Edelman, Chubb, Jacobs, Kerryon, Vance
    Bench: Garropolo, Josh gordon, Sutton, Ross, MVS, Fant

    (1) Mattison worth stashing by dropping any of my bench?
    (2) Herndon worth stashing by dropping any of my bench? (Or is it too early since he’s back week 6, & Vance is serviceable)
    (3) Should I be thinking of starting any of my bench over Edelman, assuming Brown plays?

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      drop Jimmy G for Mattison if you want him. Stash Herndon, you can drop Fant. Leave in Edelman.

    Team Name: Hurricane Ditka
    Record: 1-1
    12 team full point ppr league
    Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Def
    5 bench spots

    Current Roster

    QBs: Jared Goff, Kyler Murray
    RBs: Le’Veon Bell, Derrick Henry, Latavius Murray, Ty Montgomery, Alexander Mattison
    WRs: Davante Adams, Brandin Cooks, Tyler Lockett, Allen Robinson
    TE: Darren Waller
    Def: 49ers
    K: Justin Tucker

    Some moron in my league dropped Zach Ertz. Would you drop anyone on my roster for him? If so, how much would you spend of a $200 FAAB?

    1. ↓ Post By wmcgrath

      I forgot to mention we also start 1 Flex (RB/WR/TE).

      1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

        They dropped ERTZ? spend your whole budget and don’t get outbid. Bid $200 on Zach Ertz and laugh all the way to the bank. you can drop Mattison or TyMont or even Goff.

        1. ↓ Post By wmcgrath

          Thanks Alex.

    Looking at the match up chart I am thinking about going with Freeman over Kerryon and Jimmy G over Baker. What do you think? also John Brown over Allen Robinson because Mitchell is so bad.

    thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      matchup tool is just a tiebreaker tool and to help with understanding who your players will face but it doesn’t trump other important factors like volume projection, market share and talent, etc. Matchup is just a piece of the puzzle. We have Kerryon and Devonta back to back so maybe you could use it there, but Kerryon ahead. The fact that they dropped CJA tells me he could be in for more goal line work. I wouldn’t kill you for going Devonta tho. We’d go Jimmy over Baker, and Brown just slight over ARob but that one is just almost as close as Kerryon vs. Devonta. Best of luck!

    I think I know the answer but I will ask it anyways…. I need WR help…. trade Fournever again and Crowder and get back Ridley and Barber. I have Zeke, Jacobs and a smattering or lottery tickets like Brown(Rams) D Thompson and Mattison and my top Wr is Godwin….. 1 pt Ppr. Talk me off the ledge or shove me over!!

      Man fuck that trash can Fournette.
      I hate him more than I did Ajayi few years ago now.
      In fact I shoulda passed on him like I did when the boys had that shit Ajayi ranked higher than the Lamborghini that year.
      Hoping he gets good numbers milking this lead tonight so I can trade his bitch ass.

      1. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

        LOL…. Every time they go to run fournever again they call a run blitz and the Legend of Minchew does not audible so he runs into a 8-9 box!!!

    Hey guys,

    My roster is as follows:

    QB- K Murray
    TE- M Andrew’s
    RB- Bell, Fournett, Ingram, Mack, McCoy, T Coleman.
    WR- Evan’s, Landry, C Samual, T McLaren, DJ Chark.

    Somebody dropped OJ Howard. Should I pick him up. Others available, Mosart, R. Jones, J Hill, J Washington.

    Should I make a pick up? Who would you drop? How much of a $100 budget would you spend?

    Thanks for all your assistance. It is greatly appreciated.

    1. ↓ Post By FrankGrimes

      I’d drop that trash can Fournette for him.

      1. ↓ Post By Gman

        Can I get a real answer to my question? Your Fournett rants do not help me with my decision.

        Thanks

        1. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

          You have a great TE already. I assume you mean Mostert of SF… yes I would pick him up! Check the waiver wire cheat sheet for how much fab to use!

        2. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

          As For who to drop that’s a damn good question…. You make the call. Otherwise stand pat or maybe use tonight’s DJ Charks game to package a trade of some sort. You have all sorts of possibilities Maybe someone else has a better answer as I think I have had to much to drink….

      2. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

        Somehow that crap can got me 15 points in a ppr. Would have been nice if he did not fall on his face on 2nd down heading for the end zone…. oh well I will take it…

    Trade help I trade Amari Cooper and Courland Sutton for Mahomes and Robert Woods I have Tyreek Hill was gonna drop Josh Allen and grab Demarcus Robinson should I make this trade?!

    1. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

      Is this a trick question??? Unless I am missing something YES!!!! Go get Mahomes from whatever moron is trading him for those peanuts!

      1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

        Thats just what I offered the person is hung up on Ingram and Cooper for Mahomes and Woods. Idk if I should trade Ingram with Sony Michel, Duke Johnson, AP and Bredia as my backs. Lmk tho if its worth it to trade Ingram and Cooper for Mahomes and Woods

  10. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

    Kyler Murray would be my back up QB if thats of any help

    1. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

      If you had another true rb1 I definitely would but you are going to be really weak at rb. Who was your first round pick at your draft?

      1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

        DeAndre Hopkins

  11. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

    SO THE REAL QUESTION:
    MARK INGRAM AND AMARI COOPER FOR MAHOMES AND WOODS

    1. ↓ Post By Kwillee@hotmail.com

      Well now that is a totally different question now isn’t it….

  12. ↓ Post By DJ

    Late night trade offer for PPR league – getting Edelman/M. Gordon for my Kittle/Tyrell Williams. Already have Waller, and need a top wr to go with Golladay and Allen….thoughts? Worth the investment in Gordon? Thanks!!

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      If you’re 2-0 I don’t mind it as much. I didn’t like Edelman’s line when AB was in the game tbh. AB may end up getting suspended, so it may not be an issue, but I’m wary.

  13. ↓ Post By mendelbaum

    I need RB help and have an abundance of WR. I get Mixon and give up Antonio the ladies man Brown. Thoughts?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      run. don’t walk to take it. AB is in deep water

    Would you drop valdez scantling for McLauren?

    Hello Nation! Half-PPR, I’m being offered a trade: My Mike Evans for their Robert Woods and Carlos Hyde. Should I do it?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      if you need the rb help. otherwise it just dilutes your starting lineup

  16. ↓ Post By AbnerLofton

    .5PPR

    With The news of Alshon being out until at least week 5, do you recommend to stash him? Or is he droppable for a Golden Tate, ty Johnson, waiver wire guy?

    Other guys I’m holding would be jaylen Samuels( no Conner), Darwin T, hardman

    WRs I own: Godwin, Kirk, hardman, Jeffery

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i’d only drop him if you’re losing games.

  17. ↓ Post By KCash

    Hello. Was offered their Evans for my Tyreek. Should I be interested?

    My WR are Tyreek, AB, Hollywood, J. Brown, Crowder, DJ Moore, Mclaurin.

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      honestly, i’d try to move AB. But yes, in the case AB gets suspended you’re going to need someone now.

    12 team PPR Dynasty

    WRs-Evans, JuJu, Cooks, Allen Robinson, Courtland Sutton, John Ross, James Washington, Andy Isabella

    TE-Njoku, Burton, Irv Smith jr

    Was offered Mark Andrews for John Ross straight up, I probably won’t win this year but I will be okay but I’m hurting at TE, but like I said I probably wont be winning anyways theres a couple stacked teams and I’m already 0-2. So going forward is it worth it to move Ross for Andrews?

  19. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

    Lets settle this trade discussion once and for all im gonna post both teams. Let me know an optimal trade that would land me Mahomes.

    My Team: Josh Allen,Mark Ingram,Matt Breida, DeAndre Hopkins,Amari Cooper, Darren Waller,Sony Michal, AP, Duke Johnson, Kyler Murray, Kirk, Sutton.

    His Team: Lamar Jackson, Kamara, Chris Carson,Mike Evans, Hollywood Brown, Mark Andrews,DJ Moore, Mahomes,Malcom Brown, Cohen, John Ross, Robert Woods.

    He keeps offering DeAndre Hopkins and Ingram for Cohen Mahomes and Hollywood. Please Help me get a deal done.

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      I would probably take Cooper and Murray for Mahomes straight up if I were him. I think you’re going to have to give up Hop or Coop if you want him.

      1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

        Counter offer just happened.
        He offered Mahomes and Mike Evans for Mark Ingram and Amari Cooper. Still idk if I wanna give up my only RB1

        1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

          Im thinking about Recountering Ingram and Cooper for Mahomes,Mike Evans and Tarik Cohen.

    12 team standard league

    Dropped my kicker to p/u Darwin Thompson, trying to figure out who to drop for a kicker on Sunday Morning.

    My Team
    QB – Cam, Brissett
    RB – Cook, Ingram, D Williams, Breida, Singletary, Mattison, Thompson
    WR – Adams, Godwin, Kirk
    TE – Waller, Henry

    Cam, Williams, Singletary and Henry are all out.
    I tried trading Breida for Ryan but it did not go through. Should I try trading for Josh Allen or Goff?
    Nothing really left on waiver wire for QB. Carr, Jones, Rudolph, Keenum, Darnold, Minshew and Flaco

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      you could drop mattison. i wouldn’t trade for allen, as he goes against the Pats next week. I actually like Brissett more than any of those waiver options this week.

    Start Winston or J. Allen? I’m 0-2 and looking for best possible scenario of high upside.

    Hey guys , I’m wondering if I should drop anyone to pick up Darwin Thompson in a 12 team standard?

    P.s. What about Dalton too?

    Qb: Winston
    Rb: Conner, Cooks, Murray, McCoy, Justice Hill,
    Samuels, Mattison
    Wr: Thielen, Gollady, Boyd, J. Washington,
    Te: Howard, Eifert

  27. ↓ Post By tonynemec@me.com

    I’m already starting Kyler and David Johnson. I have Edelman in but you guys have Fitzgerald way higher in your rankings. I think it’s too many eggs in one basket. Zeke is my other running back. I could even put in Kerryon Johnson in instead of David Johnson. Then I’d feel good about fitz. Idk

    1. ↓ Post By tonynemec@me.com

      Well I just saw Brown got released. Maybe Edelman will come up in the rankings now?

  28. ↓ Post By Incognito

    Darwin Thompson is available in both of my leagues. I like his potential but have decent RBs. – Mcaffrey, Chubb, a Jones, Ingram and shady I could drop c samuels or L Murray in this league.
    In my other have bell, Chubb, kerryon and d Freeman with Justine hill, k hunt and Mattison on the bench.
    I’m inclined to stand pat rather get in a FAAB battle over this guy. What do u think?

    Best ROS dart throw WR between Diontae Johnson, Parris Campbell, Preston Williams, or Darius Slayton? Hoping to get some in house scouting info on these cats. Williams is super intriguing, but not the team he plays for. Johnson should have some chemistry working with Rudolph in TC, right?

  31. ↓ Post By bigbarret

    Is Phillip Dorsett worth a pickup now with AB out? If so who are a couple guys north and south of his value so I know where I should value him.

    12 Team 1 pt PPR League

    Roster
    QB (Start 1): Kyler, Goff
    RB (Start 2): Fournette, Josh Jacobs, Mostert
    WR (Start 3): Julio, Amari, Godwin, Courtland, Mecole, Mike Williams
    TE (Start 1): Vance, Henry (IR)

    I know I am weak at RB but no one worth picking up on waivers.

    Some questions…

    1. Just wondering if I should drop Goff for Herndon? Or anyone else I have to pickup Herndon early?

    2. Any buy low RB’s I should look at to give me more RB depth?

    1. ↓ Post By Sushi

      I wonder if you can’t get another RB to boost your depth up. Maybe a buy low on Devonta Freeman or Philip Lindsay? I would see if I can trade away McLauren and Brieda for that but that maybe too much. I’m waiting patiently for RW’s tradecast. For now I would see if you can’t hold off another week for the week 4 tradecast the guys put out before making a decision. For sure your RBs need more depth.

      1. ↓ Post By Mr_hamms@yahoo.com

        Good idea. I’ll try to be cool.

        Preciate it!

  42. ↓ Post By Burchoi

    Trade offer…I get Ertz, but I give him OJ Howard and Breida. Fair? I have Cook & Henry as main RB’s & Ridley and Fuller can fill my flex spots until Herndon gets off of suspension.

      I prob would do the trade. Might consider getting Mattison as a handcuff for Cook.
