Trashman’s Garbage Grab: Week 11

Trashman Header.                                Trashman’s Garbage Grab: Week 11

 

Had to wipe off a little who-knows-what off these guys to get them ready for game time, but they should all work in a pinch. Here’s the Grab for Week 11

 

Running Back

La’Mical Perine, Jets

The Jets have said that Perine would be the primary ball-carrier coming out of the bye, and that makes sense, finally. We all know what we have in Frank Gore. It’s time to see what Perine can bring to the table as a 3-down back. Perine should see double-digit touches this week against the Chargers, who are the 10th best matchup. 

 

Gus Edwards, Ravens

Edwards is part of a 3-headed committee once again, but he still looks like the most productive back of the bunch, if last week is any indication. If any Raven RB does anything of note this week against Tennessee, the 8th best RB matchup, it will probably be Edwards. 

 

Kerryon Johnson, Lions

It looks like D’Andre Swift is sidelined with a head injury, so it will likely be all Johnson and Adrian Peterson to get the backfield touches this week. Johnson should offer a decent floor in PPR formats. 

 

Wide Receiver

Mecole Hardman, Chiefs

Hardman has actually had a pretty decent flood in games that Sammy Watkins hasn’t played in this season, and he could be the no.2 WR this week against the Raiders, with Watkins sitting again. He’s always just a couple of big plays away from a fantasy monster, 

 

Jalen Reagor, Eagles

Reagor is on his way to being the Eagles’ no.1 WR, and he’s still unowned in over 70% of leagues. He’ll probably be in the grab until that changes. He’s got a sweet matchup with Cleveland, the league’s 6th best WR matchup, this week.

 

K.J. Hamler, Broncos

Hamler has had 10 targets in back to back weeks, which makes him very fantasy worthy, especially in PPR formats. It helps his cause that Drew Lock looks like he’s going to tough it out and play through his rin injury. 

 

Josh Reynolds, Rams

Reynolds has largely gone ignored in fantasy over the last month, despite putting up double-digit fantasy points in 3 of his last 4 games and averaging 9 targets over his last 3. Tampa is a tough opponent, but they’ll pay the most attention to Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp, as most teams do. 

 

Tight End

Dalton Schultz, Cowboys

Schultz has been a safety blanket for all the QBs who’ve played for Dallas since Dak Prescott had his season ending injury, and I don’t expect that to change this week against a weak Vikings secondary. He’s a high floor PPR play.

 

Quarter Back

Taysom Hill, Saints

It’s against my better judgement to put Hill here, as he’s largely unproven as anything other than a running back who plays under center, but his designation as a TE in some formats makes him an intriguing play. Even if he doesn’t do much through the air, he should do enough on the ground to provide a decent floor.

    Speaking of Taysom Hill . . . do I start him over Matt Stafford with his thumb issue?

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      If you start Hill, expect Jameis to get a good amount of QB snaps too. I know Taysom is the “Starter” but you just have to figure the Saints are up to some QB swinde.

    Standard: Ahmad or Gio ?

    Thanks!

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Gio is set up to carry the load. Ahmed might have some ceiling erased from a healthy Breida.

  3. ↓ Post By Srogerss90@hotmail.com

    Need a Wr and a flex ppr

    Justin Jefferson
    Rex Burkhead
    Curtis Samuel
    Ahmed
    Ceedee Lamb

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Justin Jeff, and Ahmed stick out to me. But a bunch of great optoons. Good luck!

    PPR Hearst or Goedert? And, would you drop one of those for Reagor?

    1. ↓ Post By HebrewHammer

      (Hurst, auto correct lol)

    2. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      I like Hurst Floor, but we know DG has that upside. I would want both on my team. Reagor is a hold, but not a must hold. He could have a nice game any week. That breakout feels close

    Mecole or Cam Sims? Thinking Mecole is the safer play but the high snap count for Cam is enticing. Need this for my WR3. Thoughts?

    1. ↓ Post By Baron VonIronCock

      Yikes…
      Mecole has a way higher ceiling
      Go there.

      1. ↓ Post By Sushi

        Thanks for talking me off the ledge. Rolling with Mecole!

    2. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      I agree with Baron. I’m in for Mecole…but def not a safe play. Anytime you see Hardman get 2 catches for 25 yards you are not surprised.

    If I win I make the playoffs I’m currently down 20 after his lockette and Edmonds against my Kirk

    .5 ppr rb would you play mckissic , JT OR Burkhead (was all in for Burkhead until this Sony news )
    I’m already starting gibson

    Garbageman RB Fill in? You riding w Gus the Bus or taking a shot w/ Devontae Booker?

    1. ↓ Post By Baron VonIronCock

      As a jacobs owner iam always cringing everytime i see booker with carries.
      And he has bern vulturing tds!

      Go with booker for a 7.5 pt game in ppr

    2. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Gus has been getting the most rush attempts in that backfield. Ride the Gus bus.

    Need help! 12 team std, team name: Grogan’s Heroes. Brees down, picked up Wentz, and suffered last week. Keep him today, or pick up Stafford or A. Smith off waivers?

    Thanks guys
    smills

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Stay with Wentz in my judgment. I understand why you are holding your nose. He is not a lock but I think its your best bet. Good luck!

    Need help in my flex spot, trying to make the playoff push. Full point ppr need 1 from these guys, Reagor, Crowder, Evans, Kerryon Johnson or A Peterson is still available on waivers.

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      AP set up to carry the bulk of the load today. Even in PPR he has a nice projectable floor. If you dont like AP its never a bad play to go with Evans.

  10. ↓ Post By Don Fanucci

    PPR
    Flex. Fulgham, Reagor, Curtis Samuel, Fornette.

    TE. Goedert or Tonyan.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Fulgham for me, tough one.

  11. ↓ Post By Bselle

    Of these QB’s which would you start?

    Ryan
    Cousins
    Newton

    Thank you

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      We have Ryan and Newton back to back with Ryan just one spot ahead, GL.

  12. ↓ Post By BigMike

    Is Hill worth starting over any of Jefferson, Higgins, Claypool or Godwin in my flex this week while he still carries TE designation. A little concerned about getting swindled by the Saints, but liking the upside of a superflex without a superflex spot. Thanks!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Hill projects better than all of those guys, but it’s a real pain to not be able to start Jefferson. If he gets benched half way thru, you’ll feel swindled for sure, but the process play is Hill. You should be playing Hill in your TE and not your flex. I doubt you have a TE in right now that projects better than J Jeff. So Hill to TE, J Jeff to flex.

      Also, make sure you put him in your TE for future weeks right now so if his position gets switched in the future, you can still use him there.

      1. ↓ Post By BigMike

        Starting Kelce at TE. Between the cheat sheet and a trading I’ve been able to put together a solid roster with help from the Rosterwatch Nation!

  13. ↓ Post By Pacman

    Real garbage question here. Standard league non ppr.
    Ballage or Bernard? Do I dare start both over CEH?

    Gesicki or Schultz at TE?

    Thanks trash man!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Not the trashman but I’ll say Ballage and Schultz. I wouldn’t start Ballage over CEH personally.

  14. ↓ Post By stephen

    hill at QB or rivers..

    Flex – Reagor or Lat Murray or Lev Bell?

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Lev Bell is interesting this week. Id play him, but Reagor is on the verge of a monster breakout. Be warned you could miss it.

  20. ↓ Post By Andrew

    Erect Decker. 5-5
    .5 ppr
    Flex
    Bernard, Anderson, Cooper, Evans, Antonio Brown?

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Its a borning answer but Evans has that TYD equity you look for in .5 PPR

  21. ↓ Post By Incognito

    RB Q — Gibson or Ballage ? Thanks

    WR Q — need two. – perriman, pittman or reagor ?

    thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Gibsons weekly upside is prob the way you should go, but Ballage is getting the workload. Its an interesting question but I’d play Gibson. I have low confidence I am right on this questions. Good luck brother.

  22. ↓ Post By mrbazzball@aol.com

    PPR Duke Johnson or Ahmed…. Also different league Flex Position Hunt or DJ Moore…Thnx

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Duke just keeps disappointing. I’d give Ahmed a whirl. Hunt is a nice play today. Beter floor than DJM with the same upside.

  23. ↓ Post By bdenn2

    Need 2 WR and a flex
    Higgins, Godwin, Cooper, Meyers, Chark.
    APeterson available for flex.

    Thanks

  24. ↓ Post By Daniel

    Need 2
    C Kupp
    T higgins
    C Godwin
    J meyers
    What you think?

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Godwin and Higgins are a nice combo or floor and upside as a WR unit this week.

    FLEX: Gio Bernard, Darren Waller or Jeudy?

    RB: James Robinson or Gio Bernard?

    With Bridgewater out, am I crazy for starting Rex Burkhead in the flex against Houston? I would be starting him ahead of DJ Moore and Mike Williams in a .5 PPR. Thanks

  31. ↓ Post By bdenn2

    PPR Yahoo league. JAllen on bye. Tannehill my backup. Am I better off dropping him in favor of Rivers, Dalton, Carr, Mayfield, Hill, PWalker, or Flacco?

    Thanks

      Alex Smith also an option
