Often 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 Keep in mind, these are not our official RosterWatch Week 6 rankings, but we’ve learned over time to pay extra-special attention to what the Trashman might have up his filthy sleeve – and where he stacks up players against one another for the coming week’s slate cross-positionally.

Our OFFICIAL rankings page here on the site will continue to be updated through the day Saturday and Sunday morning as more information comes in and we become more comfortable with player slotting. In the meantime, have a look at how the Trashman sees Week 6’s Sunday and Monday slate shaking out – as his inputs to our formula are a key (albeit smelly and gross) component.

    Need advice….been using Riddick, but he’s just been down graded to “out”, for tomorrow. I was able to pick up Justin Forsett and I have M. Jones and D Henry on the bench. Who would you replace Riddick with for my flex?

    1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

      Hate all 3 options. Any form of reasonable logic dictates you probably have to roll Matt Jones. Can see why the other two options appear sneaky. Too much on the line for most teams this week to roll out a complete unknown like Forsett. We are having sneaky feelings about Derrick Henry this week, just not sure the real upside is that much. You’re probably hoping for 7-12 pts out of him in standard. Think this leaves you w/Jones having a very similar floor to these other two and maybe a slight higher ceiling than Henry. And, just a little more information with him than Forsett- make the best decisions possible with the information you have at hand.

      Also, when in doubt- relinquish all anguish and relent to the Trashman’s Flex rankings. We do it…..they’re filthy good……..

    RW folks, would you do either trade? Which one is better?

    Give: DeSean Jackson, Robert Woods
    Get: Doug Martin (I have WR’s but want another RB)

    or

    Give: DeSean Jackson, Robert Woords, Julius Thomas
    Get: Mark Ingram, Doug Baldwin

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      Either works, i like the latter

  3. ↓ Post By AbnerLofton

    Better stash,

    Dixon or Perriman?

  4. ↓ Post By AbnerLofton

    How much of a boost in rankings would Crowder get should Reed not be able to play?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      He’s a nice flex in that case

  5. ↓ Post By macchez6

    Drop Eifert for Hunter Henry? Rest of season? Same question with Pitta?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      I could drop pitta for him.

  6. ↓ Post By macchez6

    Also is Kirk Cousins Droppable?

  7. ↓ Post By Rippp

    Which three would you play with this week, .5 ppr. A. Robinson, J. Landry, J. Maclin or Marvin Jones.

  8. ↓ Post By Jon

    Drop Cousins for Alex smith or Brock oswieler this week?

    1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

      Don’t hate Cousins as much as others this week, could be sneaky. LOVE Alex Smith this week if the weather doesn’t shape up as a disaster.

    Love u guys need to be on more…Need 2 RBs..1pt ppr .5 per carry…Lacy,T.West,Matt Jones or Ryan Matthews…starting Carr ,A.cooper,HUNTER HENRY (thanks to u guys) and DJAX for a revenge monster vs Philly ..Thanks long live Rosterwatch Nation

      Oh god- we love revenge monsters. As always, check Trashman’s flex rankings and our final positional rankings Sunday AMs for these decisions.

      At the moment, if it was me- I’d roll – TWest and RM. Going to have to keep a close pulse on Lacy’s status. If he’s a full go- I’d look at the matchup ratings and consider getting him in.

    12 team standard,Need a high upside flex play as my opponent is a heavy favorite.

    It’s slim pickings on the waiver wire,but the options I’m looking at are all probably Trashman specials: Tyler Lockett,Terrence Williams,Brandon LaFell,Breshad Perriman.

    I currently have LaFell in my lineup as he’s near the top on the Vegas props cheat sheet.

    Like any of that hot salty garbage? Maybe someone trashier than that?

    Thanks in advance! RosterWatch is the best!

    Also Brice Butler on the wire. I know GB’s pass D isn’t that great and injured,but have a feeling Dallas will run the ball down GB’s throat with that overrated run D,control the clock,and keep the ball out of Rodgers’s hands.

  12. ↓ Post By gutsman004

    Crowder also on the wire.

    1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

      LOVE Crowder this week!

      1. ↓ Post By gutsman004

        Thank you! I’ll pick him up and plug him in right now.

    Hey guys, been a member for a couple years. Two championships last year, so last week I used draft kings cheat sheet for the first time and 2 out of 2 contests $$money$$!! My seasonal team is in the toilet so far. Going with 5 contests this week 3 DK and 2 FD. Thanks for the help and all the info you provide.

    1. ↓ Post By Byron Lambert

      Thanks Bruce, we really appreciate you. Sorry to hear about the seaon long squad. We’d still tell you it’s too early to give up! A 2-3 game winning streak can occur easily and change the whole season. Keep grinding!

  15. ↓ Post By Bruce T

    Oh I’m not giving up. I have too good of a squad for that I used the draft cheat sheet naturally. Just some bad luck and 2 losses by a combined 10 pts. Grind it out to the end.

    Hi guys, as a Reed owner would you roll V Davies or J James this week? Not sure if your Trashy rankings account for Reed being fully out or not?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      James, I think he has a better chance to score.

  17. ↓ Post By Revis Island

    Charles Clay vs SF or Dennis Pitta vs NYG? 1.5 PPR for TE

  18. ↓ Post By Revis Island

    Spencer’s Ware or Michael Thomas PPR?

  19. ↓ Post By Ken

    Why is it the week 2 flex rankings showing up, and not week 6?

  20. ↓ Post By Ken

    Looking for a trashy huge upside FLX/ppr that can have a monster game (arent we all?)
    Looking at Perriman, Hurns, or Britt. I think Hurns and Britt have the lowest floors, but Im just thinking Perriman can have that big 5 catch 90+ yards with a big 1-2 TDs up top on play action vs this NY secondary. Especially with Smith and Wallace banged up. Is this play to make, or do you see more upside with Hurns or Britt?

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      i like hurns’ higher floor and similar upside. feel free to go with perriman if that’s your gut though.

      1. ↓ Post By Ken

        Thanks. HIGHER floor with with Hurns and Britt is what I meant.
        Thanks again.

    Need a replacement for Coates. Looking for a high upside play due to being a big underdog. Standard.

    On my waiver wire is Terrence Williams,Tyler Lockett,Brandon LaFell,Devante Adams,Brice Butler,Breshad Perriman. Like any of those? Or maybe another trashy player on the waiver wire? Thanks in advance!

    1. ↓ Post By Trashman

      I like Adams or Lockett. Dez is a true game time decision, so i don’t want to fool around with dallas guys right now.

  22. ↓ Post By rw-rK4NDZFRC

    Very old school touchdown dependent league. Landry or Hogan?
