PRO Trashman’s Week 8 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.

    Trashman! Is CeeDee droppable for Mims? Reagor? Kirk? 0.5 PPR

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Not Trashman, but I wouldn’t drop him for Mims. I’d hold on over those guys unless you really want to take a shot on Reagor. The whole Dak thing really does suck for him, but I can’t drop him for a NYJ player at this time.

    Need some advice guys-
    Pick 2 for lineup this week Full point PPR
    Cooper kupp, diontae Johnson, Aiyuk, or Darrell Henderson??

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I would go Aiyuk and Henderson myself. Check out Trashman’s flex rankings and see what he thinks.

    Help me start 1 WR, 1 RB, and 1 flex in 1.0 PPR:

    Jamison Crowder
    Gio
    Boston Scott
    Juju
    Hasty

    Assuming Mixon/Sanders sit, I was leaning Crowder, Gio, Scott, but i’ll let you experts chime in!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      you have it right if those two miss.

    Trade. Wentz and J. Jackson for Brady? I will then pick up Burrow for the bye and potential 12th round Keeper next year. Jackson a bench player and pretty good depth at RB when CMC, Chubb and Sanders come back.

    Thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      I would advise against doing that. Despite bad conditions, Wentz has found a way to produce for fantasy. The situation should get better from here fwd with Reagor, Goedert and Sanders getting healthy.

    Help!

    I know CeeDee is higher on the flex rankings, but there’s so much unknown going on over there.

    I started the season with Sutton, ODB, Hopkins and Fuller. Two of those are on bye and two are out for the season. So I need 3 of these in a full points ppr.

    CeeDee Lamb
    Preston Williams
    Nelson Agholor
    Travis Fulgham

    Thanks!

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Fulgham is an every week starter until he isn’t. I know Jalen Reagor coming back but Fulgham has been too good to sit.

      Nelson A has been teams leading WR, so he deserves to start. His floor is lower than the others but I would still start him

      Last Pw, is a risk with an unknown QB connection, but I would take a shot. Lamb will be fine but it feels like he has elevated risk with the new QB. Obviously, Lamb could have a nice day but that is how I would play it. tough call, good luck

      1. ↓ Post By christopherdavidhui@gmail.com

        I actually forgot to check back for a reply, but went with this exact thought process. Too bad The Corpse of Nelson Agholor reared its ugly head. Tough to imagine he barely did worse than Lamb haha!

    Hey guys keep up the good work bro…Got an owner willing to give up Lamar..i lost Dak..Had Cam as a Back up…He wants James Robinson..1pt PPR
    my roster
    Carr
    Ridley,Mike Evans,Will Fuller,Reagor,Corey Davis
    CMC ,Jonathan Taylor,Gio,Z. moss,Justin Jackson, Josh Kelley,Cam akers, James Robinson
    Johnu Smith
    Can I afford to make this trade….Im 6-1 1st place and leading the league in scoring thanks to u guys..H
    what should I do? Thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Though Lamar likely to score more points, in a 10 team 1 QB league I would not advise giving up an every week RB1. What is on the WW? Can you pickup Carr, Cousins? Lock? Tua? Anyone? You are in stream mode ROS.

      1. ↓ Post By Robert Braswell

        12 teams but I picked up Carr ill stream

    10 team Half-PPR
    1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 FLEX, 1 TE (6 Bench)

    My Team (5-2)
    QB: Wentz
    RB: Jacobs, Hunt (R. Jones, Montgomery, Gibson, Z. Moss)
    WR: Adams, Evans (John Brown, Diontae Johnson)
    FLEX: Ridley
    TE: Kittle
    IR: D. Samuel, Coleman

    1) What are my best offers to send to this team below to try and get CMC (assuming he’s still worth trading for) ?

    Other team (2-5)
    QB: Brees (Ryan)
    RB: Connor, Perine (Robinson, Hyde)
    WR: AJ Brown, Hollywood Brown (Fulgham, Claypool, JuJu)
    FLEX: Kupp
    TE: Henry
    IR: McCaffrey

    2) Also I’ve got 3rd waiver priority right now and the following guys are available:
    Ingram, B. Scott, L. Murray, Mattison, J. White, J. Jackson, Mims, P. Williams, S. Miller, L. Thomas

    Are any of those guys worth adding over anyone on my bench currently and who is actually worth burning a waiver claim on?

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      Your team is pretty stacked. You can consider dropping Moss for Boston Scott but that is a short term play. The issue with 10 team leagues times is that all the teams are pretty strong and it is tougher to get a trade done. If you are trying to get CMC maybe Evans plus?

    Okay, yesterday I traded J Rob and Edmonds for Hopkins in my PPR leaving me with

    Kyler

    AJones/Jamaal, Swift, Mixon, Gibson, Ingram, Scott

    Hopkins, A Rob, JJefferson, Higgins, AB

    Waller

    We have 1 keeper kept in their draft round, 10th round cutoff, so Jefferson has 10th round keeper value.

    The Davante owner (not much keeper value he was a 1st rounder) is open to moving him and Jefferson would be the move with his keeper value. Send Jefferson, Ingram, and AB for Davante?

    1. ↓ Post By gway22

      He might move Henry for the same deal, even better or focus on Davante?

    2. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      His side is the bigger “value” but you are spot on…its not about winning trades, it is about winning championships. Adams sets you up for that. Pull the trigger!

    Hi
    WR
    Evans
    Robinson
    Crowder
    Marquis Brown
    Mike Williams
    TE
    Cook
    Hooper
    Question
    Should I drop Hooper and add AJ Green or Rasheed Higgans ?
    1 point PPR
    12 teams
    I’m 5-2

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      I am right there with you. hooper is out again and we saw Byrant come in hot. I like both AJG and Higgins. Green prob the higher floor player. Go for it.

    Ppr Trade Keeper:

    Giving: Gurley, Woods and Ruggs
    Getting: Sanders

    RB: Zeke, Gurley, Moss, Kelley
    WR: Robinson, Allen, Woods, Fulgham, Aiyuk, Claypool, Hardman and Ruggs

    1. ↓ Post By Alan Seslowsky

      You are certainly paying the freight for Sanders but given your team construct, I think it is worth it.

  11. ↓ Post By John Hunsberger

    Hasty or moss if Coleman plays.. .
    5 ppr

  12. ↓ Post By bradleyhudson12@yahoo.com

    Until last week I was #1 in points scored (Thank you draft cheat sheet), yet I am 2-5 after ending a 5 week skid wk 7. Desperation time. Gotta make something happen. Traded J Taylor and Tyreek for Dalvin Cook.
    My team now: Wentz, D. Adams, Fuller, Robinson, Fulgham, Reagor (because Fuller is on a bye),
    D. Cook, Carson, Montgomery, Z. Moss (because Hyde is doubtful), Mattison and Jonnu Smith.

    Was it a reasonable trade considering my lineup? Thanks.

  13. ↓ Post By bradleyhudson12@yahoo.com

    BTW 0.5 ppr

    I am down A Jones, Mixon, aRob, and Gibson’s on a bye. Need one WR and One flex
    My options. Moss, Parker, and juju – also hasty, brown and tre quan are on waivers but I would have to drop juju or Parker. What your suggestion? Thanks

  15. ↓ Post By Pablackbird

    Injuries and byes are killing me in this half ppr. Current lineup has DHarris, CHyde, ARob, Aiyuk, JKDobbins. My bench is Mixon, Chubb, Godwin, (all out) Fuller, Shenault, Gibson (all on Bye) and Mattison. I see Hyde and ARob listed as doubtful. Still have Mattison for Hyde but if both are out I’ll need to drop someone for a WR. Thoughts on Shenault or Fuller for MWilliams? I’m somehow still 3-4 in this 12 team 0.5ppr but with my 1st 4 picks being Mixon, Chubb, Godwin and Arob its looking like one of those years. Thanks
