          I like it!

  15. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    1 pt PPR

    Roll with Loveland tonight at flex or wait and see if Drake London is healthy enough on Sunday (grab someone off waivers if not)?

    Sadly, my best options after losing Rice…

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      London would have been our advice on this move! What did you do?

  16. ↓ Post By Incognito

    WR Q – need 3 of these – wilson (Harrison is back); Jennings (Pearsall is out); drake london (first game back); Macmillan and Sutton.
    Looking for upside ! .5 ppr

    Burrow Brissett or Nix?

  18. ↓ Post By Jon in Cedar Park

    I’m not sure if Marks was set to play when Trashman did his rankings.. so Estime or Marks in .5 PPR. I know it’s gross, but it’s in my 16 team league

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Estime, brother! Houston should handle Vegas and they need to keep Woody healthy for the playoffs – I expect all 4 back sot play for Houston

      Estime projecting lead role in NOLA

      Best of luck

    Happy holidays!!
    Super flex. Dart or Mccaffery

  20. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    Crazy to start Shough over Dart and Minshew in a 2 qb league? Lost Mahomes have Maye

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Not at all! We like Shough and the matchup, he’s been playing hair on fire the last month. QB8 over the last 3 games.

      Best of Luck

  21. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    Thoughts on Worthy vs Ten?
    Have M. Wilson and Mhj…. Start Worthy and Wilson? I sat McLauren

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      I’m iffy on Worthy, I’m okay playing both Arizona receivers. We are expecting a shootout if a potential F5 capacity! Worthy has never showed us target hog abilities, Kelce has incentives and Juju is back

      best of luck

  22. ↓ Post By Tslate

    4 point passing tD 6 point rushing -2 int 1 point every 25 yards passing 1 point 10 yards rushing

    Burrow Brissett or Nix?

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Burrow than Brissett is the consensus. I have Brissett over Burrow as a lone wolf

      Best of luck

      1. ↓ Post By Tslate

        Yeah, I keep bouncing back and forth! Burrow gets Higgins back and likely has a chip on his shoulder Brissett has been so SOLID!

        1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

          The problem for me is I think Brissetts floor AND ceiling are better this week

  23. ↓ Post By Rusty

    Baker, JJ, or Shough?

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Shough!

  24. ↓ Post By Rusty

    0.5 ppr, pick two: Jeanty, Michael Carter, BTJ

    Jameson and Coke 10-5 10 team 0.5ppr

    Going against the top scoring team and am already down 25 with his Puka vs my JSN on Thursday.

    Gonna need his team to fumble hard and mine to overproduce. Current prediction is 130-166 lol

    QB Brissett
    RB Judkins/Harvey
    WR JSN/JaMo
    TE McBride
    Flex Mike Evans/Michael Wilson

    Options: Monty, Michael Carter, Estime, Jeanty

    I have a team that can catch him, I just need a lot to go right. No real question again this week unless you feel one of my bench is better odds to drop a thirty burger than what I already have in.

    Good luck to everyone and if this is it, thank you again for another great year.

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Best of Luck, brother! I don’t really have any adjustments I’d make, the only hindsight might be having Montgomery in my lineup over Harvey, but I can’t rationalize it right now!

      1. ↓ Post By thebiglost1

        I hear ya. He still has JT Gibbs Josh Allen and Pickens so I’m climbing uphill and feel like Harveys floor might be a bit lower but ceiling should is high enough to risk it. Either way good luck and hope to be back next week lol

        1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

          Thats a solid team!! It’s too bad he’a going to have to lose this week

    Well Watson did a great job blocking!
    PPR Diggs, Franklin or Godwin need one
    Get Me to The Ship!
    Merry Christmas To All!

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Diggs and Godwin are back to back, I like Godwin today in a potential Division Title deciding game

  30. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    GM Cody – Just wanted to reiterate I appreciate your insights (as well as Alex & Trashman) but by far you rock (even thought viking fan – me Bears). Toilet bowl semis (got to try and salvage the year one of the highest scoring teams). Projections have me a 1 pt dog, he had JSN, D SMith, Goedert, Deebo, Pilly DST so some guaranteed numbers. It is 1/2 PPR 14T redraft. THoughts on Herbert or JJ McCarthy? AT WR need 3 of these (order is current) Tee Higgins, Jamo, Michael WIlson or LOndon, BTJ?
    Have a great holiday

  31. ↓ Post By cisbrecht

    Full PPR

    QB – Brissett over Burrow

  32. ↓ Post By Trashman

    Cody is awol for the moment but I’d find it hard to sit Herbert against the Cowboys after what McCarthy did to them last week. At Wr, Higgins, Jamo, and London

    2. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Agreed with Trashman!

      Best of Luck, Jan

  34. ↓ Post By trelite

    Hey guys, full pt PPR league, 2 questions:

    1) need 1 WR and 1 Flex:

    WR: Michael Wilson, Ladd, Sutton, Flowers
    RB: Treyveon, RJ Harvey

    2) I have Pitts as my TE. With London coming back, would you drop him or one of the players above to pick up and play Kelce?

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Wilson and TreVeyon today!

      No, can’t drop off Pitts – i’m going youth, think both Pitts and Kelce will perform but I want the shootout game

  35. ↓ Post By HebrewHammer

    PPR

    Fannin Jr or Pitts.

    Marks, Harvey or Tracy Jr

    McCarthy or Stroud (6pts for a td)

    Thanks and Happy Holidays!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      that’s a tough choice! I think there are gonna be alot of points in that Lions game, I think I might go JMO

  37. ↓ Post By rw-hdA0W4tMJ

    full point ppr, Addison or Egbuka?

    . Chasing a lot of points

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

    Thanks in advance

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I got RJ Harvey good luck this week.

  39. ↓ Post By Specialist90

    Good morning guys. I need 4 out of these guys full PPR. Treyveon Henderson, Courtland Sutton, RJ Harvey, Juan Jennings and Quinshon Judkins. Thanks

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      great team, I can’t believe it but if I were you I’d sit Sutton. best of luck, very tough choice.

  40. ↓ Post By checkdark35

    .5 PPR

    M Wilson or JJ

    With MHJ playing, leaning JJ. Rankings say JJ. Final confirm?

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Cody and I would play JJ, Trashman would play Michael Wilson. I couldn’t live with myself if we get a vintage Jefferson game and I bench him and lose in the playoffs. best of luck.

  41. ↓ Post By Daryl

    Awesome momentum on the thread gentlemen! Need 3 of the following 5 players in a 1-point PPR SUPERFLEX:

    – Gardner Minshew
    – Chris Olave
    – Tetairoa McMillan
    – Michael Wilson
    – Courtland Sutton

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Rankings say Olave, McMillan, Wilson but Sutton is back to back for the final one, so if you are worried about MHJ being back, I would be fine playing Sutton over wilson, best of luck.

      1. ↓ Post By Daryl

        Thanks Alex! So I understand, you like the 3 wide receivers over Minshew in the SUPERFLEX position?

  42. ↓ Post By Evan

    TEAM NAME AND RECORD: Evans Almighty, 12-2
    16 team PPR- Egbuka or X. Worthy?

    WE ARE A NATION!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      our consensus rankings have egbuka slightly ahead, but projections like Worthy about 2.5 points more in PPR. I would personally go with Worthy now that Evans and McMillan are back, but Cody and Trashman seem to greatly prefer Egbuka so I guess as a consensus, I have to suggest that since they have a lot of conviction and I really don’t. Best of luck.

  43. ↓ Post By BoricuaKiller

    Good Morning Roster Watch Nation!!!
    SuperFlex Full Ppr: Need 2 Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield, Jaxson Dart. WR: Need 2 George Pickens, Jauan Jennings, Courtland Sutton. Thanks Bro’s!!!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Lamar and Baker for me, then Pickens and Jennings, although I hate benching Sutton. GL

    2. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Boricua, best if luck man

      Lamar and Baker

      Jennings and Pickens

  44. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    I’m up against a Puka team and need upside.

    I want to start Worthy and hope he breaks a long one but who do I sit? Javonte or Quinshon. Both have good floors but I don’t see a really high ceiling for either of them. Thoughts? Also have Aaron Jones and Estime on the bench.

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Tough start!

      Hope in one hand, production in the other… give me Javonte, brother. More likely 3 TD from him than a Worthy 80 yarder

  45. ↓ Post By AbnerLofton

    .5 ppr

    Tet or Woody?

    1. ↓ Post By Cody Carpentier

      Tetairoa

  46. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    .5pt PPR, which RB for my flex Q.Judkins, T. Henderson or T. Etienne?

    I currently have Henderson in my flex but the matchup tool says Judkins, but I’m skittish about Judkins these days.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      If you have had Henderson in all along I would stick with that. best of luck. They all project similarly, although ETN has the highest projection of them all.

  47. ↓ Post By sdboor

    PPR Dowdle or OHampton

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      Think I go Dowdle, tough one. Good luck today

    GOOD MORNING ROSTER WATCH NATION!!!
    Full Ppr: Do you bench any of this players to fire up Courtland Sutton on my Flex: Bucky Irving, Quishon Judkins, TreVeyon Henderson. Thanks Bro’s!!!

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I’d leave it like you have it personally. GL today

  52. ↓ Post By Daryl

    Alex! To clarify, do I start Tetairoa McMillan and/or Courtland Sutton over Gardner Minshew in a SUPERFLEX position? 1-point PPR.

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      they all project for about 14 points. I think you’d be fine to bench either for Minshew, but I would personally play the receivers. If you want to play Minshew, it is your team and that is fine. It’s a coin flip

  53. ↓ Post By [email protected]

    Full Point PPR & TE Premium Pick One: Woody Marks, Marvin Harrison, Jalen Coker or Oronde Gadsden

    1. ↓ Post By Alex Dunlap

      I”m worried about Woody and MHJ, I think I go Gadsden in TEP but it’s a tough call.
