Tim's suggestions: Niles or Donnell

^^^this^^^ both are solid options.

 

I'd go with Niles Paul. TEs are the best friend of inexperienced QBs (like Kirk Cousins).

 

That is actually the opposite. Inexperienced qbs best friends are actually pass-catching rbs. TEs are actually their least favourite. There are stats for it. I believe it is due to being so far down the priority/checkdown list and rookies won't get to them before its too late.

 

The overall numbers agree but there are individual cases that go against that and I think last week we saw a young QB that looked towards what seemed to be a target he is comfortable with in Paul.

 

With your situation being that you need a long term replacement due to the transaction cap I would likely avoid Paul here. Reed will be back at some point which could crush the long term value of Paul.

Name some other available options. Is Dwayne Allen available by chance? He would be a better option than Fleener IMO but not sure he would be available based on the original names you threw out there.

 

What about Larry Donnell, Anthony Fasano, or Mychal Rivera?

 

K guys got a few fantasy lineup ?'s - and this time Ill listen


in one league i have crap for RBS, keep in mind I have no flex positions and start 2 rb's

-Shonn Greene
-Toby Gerhart
-Derren McFadden

I need one

Wr's

-Dez Bryant who Im not sure how healthy hes is or if hes playing
-Brandon Cooks
-Sammy Watkins whos also banged up

need one

in another league I need one of these

-Jammal Charles, whos sucked all year and I wasted a first pick on and is hurt
-MJD, whos also hurt and not sure if hes gonna play much and they play the Pats


also any word on DeSean Jackson, healthy?

Thanks guys, any help is appreciated

 

Greene

Go with Dez. Even at 80%, he is better than the other 2.

Charles, but it's looking like he is going to be splitting carries today.

 

There is still no confirmation that Charles will play.

Looks like a game-time decision. If your back-ups are only playing the 1 o'clock game you are kind of pigeon-holed into playing one of them or else you run the risk of not having a player in your line-up this week.

 

I would go DMC with Jones-Drew out.

WR question - Dez

For the Charles/MJD question - You may have to scramble for a back. MJD already out and Charles is very iffy to play at this point.

Jackson is playing but is still hurting with the shoulder injury.

 

PPR League, can start three of the four:

Antonio Brown , Alshon Jeffery , DeAndre Hopkins , TY Hilton

Interested in seeing the thoughts, here. All the best, everyone.

 

thats what Im seeing, also sounds like MJD is out. last second decision but I picked up the guy thats taking Arian Fosters spot. Hope I dont regret it but Im already 0-2 in this league and I badly need a win. ALfred Blue?


Thanks guys I stuck with your guys advice everywhere else

 

I don't like Brown much this week but in PPR he has to start. For the other two I would go Jeffery (assuming he plays) and Hilton (but not by much over Hopkins).

 

Brown, Jeffery, Hilton

 

Jamaal Charles ruled inactive for this week.

 

Blue your my boy!!

 

I started Foster. Didn't kill me.

 

One of the guys in my league just dropped Adrian Peterson. I was thinking about picking him up and stashing him on my bench in case he comes back later this season. Thoughts?

 

How many bench spots do you have and what would you be giving up to stash him?

Also, are you comfortable with your starters to the point that you are willing to basically kill a roster spot for possibly the bulk of the season?

 

Pretty much what Tim said. Also, what kind of shape will he be in if he comes back this season. I'd personally pass in picking him up.
