PRO Trashman’s 2019 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 refer to the Rankings tab for our staff positional rankings.

    At what point can we stop trusting Brandin Cooks or Tyler Boyd as weekly top 20 fantasy WRs?

    Seems every week they’re ranked top 20, and only once or twice lived up to the billing. Frustrating to own those guys haha.

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      It’s their target share and snaps that keep them where they are. The potential is always there. Boyd will be boyd. Cooks is suffering from a goff slump

  2. ↓ Post By just_tyrone@hotmail.com

    Half point PPR L. McCoy or L.Murray. Thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      Murray if no kamara. McCoy otherwise

      1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

        Lol like he’s going to know before tonight if there is no Kamara.

      2. ↓ Post By Trashman

        i think kamara is pretty doubtful at this point

  3. ↓ Post By pbatts11

    I know you have Calvin Ridley a few slots ahead of Golden Tate. I’m in a 1/2 ppr and can’t decide who to roll with if Sterling Shepard remains out this week.

    Do the Rams play more of a man or cover defense?

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Rams are middle of the pack at around 40% man. The worry with Tate if there is no Shepard is how Ramsey is going to fit in. Robey-Coleman isn’t the easiest matchup either.

  4. ↓ Post By Trashman

    Well the rams just added Jalen Ramsey so they just got a lot better, though he will probably give most of his attention to Julio so Ridley would be a sneaky start. If Shepard is out I’d go with Tate

  5. ↓ Post By DJ

    Heres one for you TM: Offered DeVonte Freeman for H Henry (I have Waller) and Coleman…. both on the bench for me. Thanks! (Tried a Coleman/HHenry/AJ Green for Kamara, but don’t think he will take it). Appreciate your help,.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I know you asked for Trashman’s advice so I won’t answer but are you saying you’re getting Freeman? I think Henry and Coleman is a little steep.

      1. ↓ Post By DJ

        Sorry Byron – thought I caught TM answering posts – any answer from the RW crew is appreciated. Thanks.

        1. ↓ Post By DJ

          *Byron and Alex (getting old sucks)

    2. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i don’t like it. i feel like you can get better for those players

  6. ↓ Post By rw-dxaZF7PC9

    I just missed Darnold on waivers and could have had him for nada. Been rolling with Minshew and Jimmy G after dropping Baker. Should I offer M. Jones (Det) for Darnold and drop Jimmy G and eventually Minshew? Have Allen, Godwin, Hollywood, Sutton, Brown (Buf), and picked up AB for stash. Sounds obvious as I type.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      you shouldn’t be trading away and dropping all these skill position players for random QBs. It sounds like a ton of them are on your wire. Play QB matchups, don’t stash them and focus on trading/acquiring SKILL GUYS. Listen to the tradecast.

  7. ↓ Post By libowskee@yahoo.com

    Need trade advice…

    I’m in a superflex PPR league and have Fournette, Chubb, Montgomery, TY, JUJU, Robbie Anderson, josh Allen, H Henry, Herndon, Cousins, and Darnold.

    Got offered Wentz, Kerryon and either Sutton, B Cooks or McClauren for Chubb and Cousins.

    Any help is appreciated RW!

      NO.

  8. ↓ Post By DaBostonBeast

    Would you start E. Sanders tonight in a flex (2flexes) or Latavius Murray Sunday?. Godwin and DJ Moore on bye. My starters are Dak, Golden Tate, C. Ridley (love him this week), Lev Bell, D Cook, H. Henry, Hyde and that last flex spot. Or would you play Sanders over Tate in the 2nd WR spot?
    Thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I’d start Tate over Sanders. It’s an impossible question to answer as we don’t know Kamara’s status. If you’re a risk taker, wait it out and roll Latavius who’s obviously the better play if no Kamara. IF you’re less risk-averse, then go with Manny tonight. (even though he seems risky to get banged up as it is).

      1. ↓ Post By DaBostonBeast

        I Like the Risk!!! Kamara was obviously playing hurt last week so I don’t think they’ll do it again. Especially since he got even more banged up in the process. Thanks. And I’m on the Avatar.

    Need 2 of 4 for RB2 and FLEX slots.

    T. Coleman, R. Freeman, T. Boyd, C. Ridley

    Thanks in advance

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Click on Trashman’s flex rankings above to see who he likes, but I’d roll out Boyd, Ridley and Coleman although I do think Royce is sneaky tonight.

    2. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      also, add an avatar.

  11. ↓ Post By Erod626

    Flex McCoy or ARob 1pt ppr?

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      In PPR I want A-Rob, hope that’s the right call. Check out what Trashman thinks in his flex rankings too, though.

  12. ↓ Post By scronz

    PPR. Te spot Noah fant or Dawson Knox?

  13. ↓ Post By gurpindersdeol@gmail.com

    Perhaps overthinking it, but I’m being offered diggs for my Tevin Coleman in full PPR. Should I do it? My RBs are kamara, fournette, Carson, Mattison

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Your RBs are strong and in a vacuum the trade is fine. I just wonder if you are thin at WR or if you would ever be starting Diggs?

      1. ↓ Post By gurpindersdeol@gmail.com

        Evans, Boyd, Kirk, Hollywood, Gordon. If Kirk doesn’t play this week, I need a play at WR. Or I can use diggs in a bigger trade after getting him?

        1. ↓ Post By gurpindersdeol@gmail.com

          That’s my thought process. I realize it can blow up in my face, so wanted to see your thoughts.

  14. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

    Season long who would you rather keep Hunter Henry or Darren Waller? Im thinking about proposing One of those TE’s and Matt Bredia to the Leveon Bell owner.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      ask the Bell owner which one he wants, I’d love to have either of those guys and that’s an excellent trade idea.

      1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

        Well trade talks in my league are basically impossible you just gotta propose something and hopefully they accept lol, Which of the 2 would you rather have

        1. ↓ Post By rickymurawski@gmail.com

          Its a hard choice seems like Henry has the easier schedule but Waller has already had his bye.

  15. ↓ Post By Burchoi

    Start Miles Sanders or Damien Williams?

  16. ↓ Post By team gooch

    Full point PPR. Been offered Derrick Henry & Boyd for Kerryon Johnson & Golladay. I dont like it so Im thinking of countering with my Golladay, James White, & Hockenson for Kamara(I know he’s banged up but once he heals up & Brees is back I think he’ll be the Kamara we’ve been hoping for all season.) Then I can use my 2 extra roster spots to make additional moves for bye week fill-ins. What do you think?
    My RBs David Johnson, Kerryon Johnson, White, Singletary, Edmonds
    WRs-Julio, Evans, Lockett, Golladay, Cooks.
    TE Andrews

    1. ↓ Post By team gooch

      If he doesnt except that should I offer Julio instead of Golladay. What do Y’all think? If Kamara can get back on track, I think My Wrs are still solid enough to carry me to the championship if the rest of my team can stay healthy

      1. ↓ Post By Trashman

        i don’t think he’d take the first offer unless he’s about to be out of contention without a win this week. julio would probably work, if he needs the help. you have good depth at wr, yes

  17. ↓ Post By Wyatt

    Auden Tate or Allen Robinson

  18. ↓ Post By ea4582

    Diggs or Woods
    Brissett or Winston

    Rest of season, .5 ppr

  19. ↓ Post By clublevel

    Is Damien Williams a drop?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      only in a 10 team league or smaller. i would rather try to trade him if possible.

  20. ↓ Post By R A

    Damn, with Mahomes potentially out for a while, there’s gonna be some big QB problems. Who is the best bet going forward between Brissett, Darnold, and Garoppolo?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i think darnold has the most upside. brissett is the safest though

  21. ↓ Post By wmcgrath

    What are your thoughts?

    1. ↓ Post By wmcgrath

      Robby Anderson is currently on my waiver wire. Would love to grab him but need to free up some space on my roster? Love the tradecast by the way.

      1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

        As discussed on TradeCast this wk, drop your kicker – thank you for listening! Grab him ASAP!

        1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

          Yes you need to make trades to clear roster spots

          1. Post By Byron Lambert

            Maybe a Henry Ingram Cooks for DJ + Odell? Tough to upgrade your lineup much w/ this partner

            If you had to drop somebody for RA–prob be Mattison since you don’t own Dalvin. That’s another idea — find the Dalvin owner trade him Mattison plus one other guy for one better player in return – clear a roster spot

          2. Post By wmcgrath

            Thanks Byron. Is trading Hunter Henry and Mark Ingram for David Montgomery too much?

            My other RBs are Le’Veon Bell, Derrick Henry, Kerryon Johnson, Alexander Mattison

            My other WRs are Davante Adams, Tyler Lockett, Brandin Cooks, Michael Gallup

            My starting TE is Zach Ertz.

  22. ↓ Post By Moosetermind

    is amari cooper a must start vs philly if he goes? or i could start mike williams or hunter henry in the flex instead. what do yall think?

    1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

      Have to monitor his injury status. Those are decent alternatives, don’t love matchup. If he plays, and sounds good to go–think you prob have to go with Cooper

      I would love to comete a 2 for 1 consolidation trade but my league mates have not been very keen on seriously considering any trade proposals.

    2. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i don’t think you can drop any of those guys

  26. ↓ Post By FF_Hookem

    Better ROS – Miles Sanders or Mattison?

    I’m trying to make a deal. Would you make a deal.
    Offering
    D Johnson and either M Evans D Adams
    for
    Zeek and T Boyd or S Diggs
    Here is the rest of my lineup. Would you make an offer an if so which WR on each side?
    QB: K Murray, J Allen
    RB: D Johnson, T Coleman, D Henry, R Penny, A Mattison
    WR: M Evans, A Robinson, C Samuel, D Adams, A Lazrd
    TE: OJ Howard, C Herndon

    1. ↓ Post By Baron VonIronCock

      I, personally would not make that deal

  28. ↓ Post By mjc3475

    Two questions:

    Flex start: Chark v. CIN or Woods v. ATL? – weekly rankings have Chark>Woods, Trashman flex has Woods>Chark

    Look ahead to week 8: Lamar Jackson on bye, best QBs on waivers are Minshew v. NYJ, Stafford v. NYG, Winston v. TEN off bye. Would I be best served just looking at the matchup chart or would a Minshew/Chark stack be smartest due to the potential boom if they have a huge week?

    TIA

    1. ↓ Post By Baron VonIronCock

      I guess cause woods game is expected to be like a rocky fight, back and forth
      exchanging blows…

      though woods HAS been pretty dreadful this SZN

    2. ↓ Post By Baron VonIronCock

      if all those qbs are at home, I may lean Stafford

  30. ↓ Post By woo.jonathanwoo

    Philosophically, what is preferable?

    1- Continue to mine WW gold? I’ve been consolidating assets in true RW fashion, so I’ve opened up roster spots.
    2- Use my spare spots to add insurance (Mattison, Armstead).

    I love the prospect of continuing to recycle into stronger assets, but I also can’t ignore handcuff potential.

    1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

      Those guys are high priority handcuffs that should be considered right now, esp AM. I’d find a way to pick him up if I owned Dalvin

  31. ↓ Post By gerrycouey@hotmail.com

    Flex..ppr…Golden Tate, Ekeler, or Singletary this week?

  32. ↓ Post By Dustin

    1pt PPR
    Gore vs Mia
    J..Jacobs vs GB

  33. ↓ Post By FF_Hookem

    Would you drop Josh Gordon or MVS for Mattison?

  34. ↓ Post By freebird

    Standard scoring. With the Kamara news (being ruled out this week), is Latavius placed above any of my starting 2RB/2WR/1FLEX (RB or WR)?

    RB-Fournette/AJones WR-Hopkins/Chark and FLEX either Fitzgerald or TColeman

    Thanks in advance!

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i would put him in your flex

      1. ↓ Post By freebird

        Thanks TM.

  35. ↓ Post By Burchoi

    Ebron or Fells?

  36. ↓ Post By wmcgrath

    12 team full point ppr league
    Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex (RB/WR/TE)
    5 bench spots

    Current Roster

    QB: Deshaun Watson
    RBs: Le’Veon Bell, Derrick Henry, Mark Ingram, Kerryon Johnson, Alexander Mattison
    WR: Davante Adams, Tyler Lockett, Brandin Cooks, Michael Gallup

    RBs: Dalvin Cook, Melvin Gordon, Matt Breida, Jordan Howard
    WRs: Keenan Allen, Marquise Brown, AJ Green, Sammy Watkins, Tyrell Williams, Dede Westbrook
    TE: Delanie Walker

    I was going to offer him Alexander Mattison and maybe another player. However, I don’t know if there is a trade to be had with this owner.

    What do you think?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      you could probably get green off of him. he needs a pass catcher. might take on of your TEs with mattison.

      i’d probably start him over robinson who will get the lattimore treatment.

  39. ↓ Post By pak3chris

    2QB league. I have Mahomes, Jackson, Brees and Darnold. Got offered M Evans for my Brees and E Engram. Also have Waller. My WRs are Hill, Juju, R Anderson, MVS and AJG. I could definitely pick Mayfield to cover games until Mahomes is back.

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i could go for that

  40. ↓ Post By Naqs

    Should I trade Marlon Mack for Le’Veon Bell?

  42. ↓ Post By chrisnova10@gmail.com

    14 team PPR
    Breida or Auden Tate?
    If it matters: my opponent is rolling Dalton, and I’ve already got Coleman in the lineup.

  43. ↓ Post By smithsonje@gmail.com

    Wasted Talent 4-2 Point per.

    Played T.Hill earlier and have Allen Robinson as only WR left.

    D.j. Moore on bye would it be advisable to drop more for Dorsett, Sanu, Tate, Slayton or Lazard and play over Robinson (latimore shadow)

    With Kamara out, I have Murray, K.Johnson, Montgomery and D.Freeman need 3

    Thank you fellers

    PPR – Should I offer up K. Allen(LAC STINK?) and Keryone for Lev Bell? Have Henry and McCaffrey at RB AND Godwin, Sutton, Hollywood, M. Jones, J. Brown, and AB as a stash? Currently 2-4 with most points scored in league.
