    Damn pretty low on Dissley. Little surprised

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

  5. ↓ Post By DanMach

    If D. Adams is out I need a Flex out of these guys.
    R Penny
    C. Samuel
    T. Coleman
    R Mostert.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Think Id go Samuel.

  6. ↓ Post By Cancop1

    Thoughts on picking up Nkeal Harry and dropping Burkehead. We have IR spot then I can pick up Hymes incase Mack is out

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I’d rather have Rex than those guys right now.

    2. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      If Mack doesn’t go, I am fine dropping him for a one-week Hines play.

  7. ↓ Post By freebird

    Standard, 10 team and 4-0. I’m shallow on RB and thinking of a trade proposal. I’d get David Montgomery and give the 0-4 team Hyde and Curtis Samuel. Too much?

    My team:
    QB LJackson/Brees
    RB Fournette/Ingram/Hyde/TColeman/JSamuels
    WR Hopkins/Adams/Cooks/Fitzgerald/CSamuel/McLaurin/Chark
    Dropped my kicker to get Tevin so will need to drop someone for a kicker before Sunday so a good time for a two for one trade.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      No, now is a great time to swoop in on Montgomery.

  8. ↓ Post By Show Me Your TDs

    I put out Connor and Da. Williams for saquon and it got accepted. Only to have the commissioner nix it. SMH done with that league after this year. Other backs are CMC, Dalvin, d. Mont and picked up Melvin Gordon a few weeks ago. WRs Keenan, Godwin, hill and Kirk. Waller at TE. Just bragging a little thanks to you guys! Wish The commish would just let people play. Too much swindling this year I guess

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Don’t play In that league again and tell the commish he’s a piece of trash.

  9. ↓ Post By sdboor

    Tyreek Hill is on Waivers
    Me 3-1. PPR.
    Play 3RB 4WR. 1TE. 2 Flex. And a short bench
    McCaffrey, DelvCook, Brieda, CHyde, RoyceFreeman, AMattison, TevColeman
    OBJ, Godwin, Boyd, ARob, CSamuel, CKirk
    Kittle, Dissly
    I have 1st waiver pick
    – didn’t need to use the waiver last week and I was waiting for an opponent to need to drop a good RB
    I should take THill and drop my worst player

    Who should I drop to get THill – One of my RBs or WR since thinner on RB?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      yes, i’d drop mattison. he’s not valuable to anyone but you right now.

  10. ↓ Post By gurpindersdeol@gmail.com

    In standard would you trade Lockett and Montgomery for tyreek and James white? Other RBs are McCaffrey, fournette, Thompson, samuels. WRs are Keenan, Curtis Samuel, arob, Sutton.

    1. ↓ Post By eyak29

      I’d keep Lockett and Montgomery

  12. ↓ Post By Steelnation1825

    Phillip Dorsett or Robert Woods in flex?

  13. ↓ Post By sdboor

    In PPR which 3 would I wish to sit on my bench for depth ?
    T Coleman (I own Brieda), Royce Freeman, RPenny, CHyde,

  14. ↓ Post By willywill325

    Goff or Brissett

  15. ↓ Post By sdboor

    Fournette, Gurley, LFitz, DHenry, MelvinGordon, ESanders

    Please guide me to 2 RB and 1 Flex in PPR

    Do I play Gurley tonight as 1 of the 3, or no Gurley tonight and pick from others for the weekend

  16. ↓ Post By Brian

    Not sure what to do, in your rankings you have Carson higher then Henry and in the Trash and rankings Carson is higher?

  17. ↓ Post By Brian

    Not sure what to do, in your rankings you have Carson higher then Henry and in the Trashmans flex rankings Carson is higher?

  18. ↓ Post By Cancop1

    Trade my Mecole Hardman and Marvin Jones for Josh Gordon? PPR

    1. ↓ Post By eyak29

      I like Jones better than Gordon

  19. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

    My team Kyler Murray, Mark Ingram, Sony Michel, Hopkins, Amari Cooper, Darren Waller, Robert Woods, Darren Waller
    Bench Rivers,Breida,Burkhead,Tyreek Hill, Kirk,Sutton.

    Who should I drop to pick up Nahiem Hines I desperately need some RB help

    1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

      Jaylen Samuels is available as well.

      1. ↓ Post By eyak29

        Drop burkhead or a qb. Most leagues you don’t really need to roster a backup qb because there are plenty on waivers. I would pick up Samuels

  20. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

    Full PPR

  21. ↓ Post By drew.g.summitt@wmich.edu

    Rather have James white or frank gore rest of season in a standard league?

  22. ↓ Post By ea4582

    Took the trade.. it’s a superflex league but I already had 3 other QBs.. made sense as I get another Rb in singletary..

    how do you think that time share is going to look with Gore when he gets back?

  23. ↓ Post By Spinman

    offer chubb and i try to receive m thomas and j jacobs? obv no guarantee on the outcome, but is it a good 2:1 offer?

    my
    rbs: dJohnson, Chubb, MMack, TColeman
    wrs: MEvans, CGodwin, ARobin,TMcLur,CSutton,MVScant

    si o no??

    Thx RWN!

    1. ↓ Post By eyak29

      That would be a nice upgrade. I would try to move Mack over Jacobs first though

  24. ↓ Post By freebird

    Standard scoring league and I’m 4-0 (and working on my 1st ever trade in a league that seldom trades). I offered a 0-4 team my Carlos Hyde and Curtis Samuel for their David Montgomery since I’m weakest at RB. They offered back what I think is likely a no deal:
    I give Ingram & Cooks, and I receive DMontgomery, Aaron Jones & Gallman.

    My team:
    QB Jackson/Brees
    TE Andrews
    RB Fournette/Ingram/Hyde/JSamuels/TColeman
    WR Hopkins/Adams/Cooks/Fitzgerald/CSamuel/McLaurin/Chark
    Need to drop one for a kicker

    I just need a sanity check and don’t think Cooks can be traded until next week. I really don’t want a 2 for 3 trade and know Ingram is a good sell high candidate but seems like he’s the best player in the deal. I wanted Montgomery, originally, and have no interest in Gallman. Am I right to turn it down?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      Gallman is likely to be useless in a week if not sooner by the looks of Barkley’s rehab, so I see why he wants to ship him. it’s not a terrible trade if you can start 3 rbs, but that’s the only scenario I’d consider it in.

  25. ↓ Post By bobby digital

    Rosterwatch- I am a PRO member and love this site…. I have Lamar Jackson and Cousins at QB. very weak at TE with Knox, Eifert Reed & Njoku (last 2 on IR). I have been offered Kyle Allen & Greg Olsen for Cousins & Eifert. While Allen may only play another game or 2, I can cut him and grab Rudolph (who plays Miami during Jackson’s bye) Brigewater and Chase Daniel also available on waivers. My concern is the Jackson injury risk given his running…. but I am leaning toward rolling the dice here and can trade for another QB if he goes down (as long as before trade deadline). thoughts?

    1. ↓ Post By eyak29

      Is this superflex?

      1. ↓ Post By bobby digital

        1 QB starter not SUperflex

    2. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i hate cousins, so i’m all about shipping him. olsen is the better TE too.

  26. ↓ Post By xraytakr

    10 team .5ppr 2RB 2WR 2 Flex league. I’m 2-2 and offered a trade to a 1-3 team. I give up Sutton, Gore, and M Sanders or J Howard and receive Montgomery and OBJ. Other owner said it wasnt enough…..am I way off here?

    1. ↓ Post By eyak29

      That would of been an all time swindle if you could of pulled that off

    2. ↓ Post By Trashman

      you’re not crazy, you’re just evaluating the trade on recent player performance, and the other owner is looking at player potential. you have to speak the same language to get a trade done. sutton is the only player on your end with a high ceiling right now. howard and sanders will limit each other’s potential in the eyes of most, and no one respects gore.

      1. ↓ Post By xraytakr

        I gotcha. I tried to make him see it my way, but he ain’t having it, lol. I might have another offer in the works…..hopefully. Thanks Trashman

  27. ↓ Post By R A

    Full PPR. Please pick two of Gallman, Diggs, and Sutton. Reports that Diggs was practicing with Minnesota’s 3rd QB are concerning and his attitude might kill this playing time. Am I trippin? Or is this a “squeaky monkey gets the grease” situation?

    Standard scoring. Please pick two of Mixon, Godwin or Gallman. I also have Evans penciled in.

  28. ↓ Post By eyak29

    Gallman and Sutton. Diggs should turn it around at some point as long as cousins gets it together but he can’t be trusted right now.

  29. ↓ Post By mikemeyer10@yahoo.com

    I’d be giving up Lamar and Kenny Golladay for ARod and Davonte Adams. I have Julio, Ju Ju, Larry Fitz and Hollywood Brown. Also have Dak presently baking up Lamar.

    1. ↓ Post By mikemeyer10@yahoo.com

      Backing up, not baking Lamar.

    2. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i think adams has the better schedule down the stretch. i don’t mind this trade at all.

  30. ↓ Post By oz_fantastic

    WR: T. Hill, JuJu, Boyd, Valdes-Scantly, Chark, Crowder

    Need 3:

    Obviosly Hill is out, (Not JuJu’s fault) the next three really let me down last week. Thinking of going with Boyd, Valdes-Scantly, and Chark? Is benching JuJu a good call?

  31. ↓ Post By Trashman

    no, from the way mason has been talking this week, the squeaky wheel is about to get greased.

  32. ↓ Post By Fantasy Not So Bright

    Singletary was dropped. Does he have a higher Rest of Season ceiling than Burkhead or Darrel Williams? If so, which one should I drop to get him? I would have to spend FAAB, so its not a completely free move.

  33. ↓ Post By drew.g.summitt@wmich.edu

    10 team 3 wr standard league

    RB: kamara fournette Jacobs Hyde gore
    WR:Julio Samuel Landry Dorsett desean Jackson

    Would you trade Jacobs and Landry for Godwin? I could also scoop James white on free agency after

  34. ↓ Post By HD

    R. Anderson or T. McLaurin flex start. 1 point PPR.

  35. ↓ Post By dankc2

    trade offer I just recieved. I get Barkley and Mike Williams and give up Chubb and Kittle. I own Waller and my other RB’s are Fournette, Ingram, M Gordon, A Jones and Gallman. I think its too much for Barkley, Thoughts?

  41. ↓ Post By Daryl

    1 point PPR – Sony Michel over Allen Robinson? Michel is up against the awful Redskins defense and Robinson has Chase Daniel throwing to him, not sure Daniel can be trusted to produce . . .
