Trashman’s Garbage Grab Bag: Week 9

Trashman’s Garbage Grab Bag: Week 9

I’m going to need a shower after this one, but it’s all going to be worth it my friends. Here are your trashy treasures for Week 9 of the NFL season.

 

Wide Receiver

Zach Pascal, Colts: Yes, you could very well go with Charles Rogers or, probably the best prospect of the bunch Parris Campbell, but Pascal has already been 90%+ player and has had 50+ yards or a TD in 3 of his last 5 games. 

 

DeVante Parker, Dolphins: Parker isn’t as exciting as the upstart Preston Williams, but he gets more red zone action so he’s shown a bit more upside. The Jets are burnable through the air.

 

Chris Conley, Jaguars: Conley has been on a tear as of late, and Dede Westbrook is banged up, so Conley’s chances are even better this week, even if Westbrook does end up going. He has a soft matchup with the Texans in London this week.

 

Diontae Johnson, Steelers: No James Conner means the Steelers will lean on Jaylen Samuels and perhaps a bit more on their passing game. Johnson is a legitimate 1B to Juju Smith- Schuster’s 1A.

 

Anthony Miller, Bears: Miller is averaging 50+ yards and 6 targets over his last 3 games, and he gets an almost league worst Philly secondary this week. It’s the perfect storm for a Miller eruption.

Running Back

Ty Johnson, Lions: Yes, Paul Perkins and J.D. McKissic are around, but Johnson has been the one constant over the last 3 weeks, and last week’s touch leader for Detroit Tra Carson is on I.R. 

 

Rex Burkhead, Patriots: We want to make sure he’s playing first, but Burkhead could be in line for major action if James White sits. White was added to the questionable list on Friday, and late designations are rarely a good thing for the player in question. 

 

Tight End

Jonnu Smith, Titans: Smith filled in for an injured Delanie Walker last week and led the Titans in receiving with 78 yards and a TD. Walker is still out this week, and though Carolina is not an easy team to get over on, Smith is athletic enough to make some big plays. He’s a safe start.

 

Jack Doyle, Colts: Doyle led the Colts in receiving last week with 61 yards, and though Eric Ebron will challenge him for targets T.Y. Hilton will not. 

 

Dallas Goedert, Eagles: Goedert may not be on the field as much when DeSean Jackson returns, but Jackson is no lock to see the field this week. Goedert has been Wentz’s favorite red zone target for the last 3 weeks. 

Quarterback

Sam Darnold, Jets: Darnold has perhaps the easiest schedule in the league for the rest of the season, including 2 meetings with Miami – One of those meetings is this Week. Darnold bounced back decently last week after a nightmare game against New England in Week 7, so he should be back to his usual self.

      Depending if you started Chark, this could be answered. But I would go with the RB’s..

    As TY owner….w/ bye weeks coming…need wr…but might have to drop Mattison? to pick up PASCAL …I am a Dalvin owner…my RBs are Cook, Ekeler, DJ, < (week 12) …Guice & Singletary …or drop Crowder or G. Tate? or do nothing?

    1. Don’t drop Mattison, especially as a Cook owner. You could drop Guice to pickup Pascal, but I think Tate and Crowder are decent alternatives to TY this week. ‍♂️

        I agree. Pascal will also have a tough game this week against Steven Nelson.

  4. Need to drop one, shady McCoy, Diontae Johnson, sterling shepard, Mike Williams

    1. Post By The Flex Network

      It’s either Johnson or Williams. Most would probably say drop Johnson but I am not high on Mike Williams… So I would drop him. Can’t swing a trade? MW still has name value.

  5. Happy to be starting both a past garbage grab and a current garbage grab in Walton and Burkhead in bye week hell and Conner owner!! Break a tie between Ekeler and Samuels in a PPR? Thanks.

  6. 10 Standard.
    1qb,2rb,2wr,1te,1flx
    RB: Chubb, Dalvin, Coleman,Devonta Freeman,Mattison
    WR: JuJu, Mike Evans, DK Metcalf, Kirk
    TE: Hunter Henry, Hockenson.

    Got offered Kareem Hunt and DJ Moore for Devonta Freeman. Sounds good to secure Hunt right?

    1. i only like it because you might need to start moore over metcalf now that gordon is a seahawk.
