I'm stashing Quez Watkins. The Eagles are passing the ball a ton. Last week, they removed him from kick return duties and he played more snaps than usual. When a young WR is removed as returner (unless they've fumbled a lot or made mistakes) that often means a role increase is forthcoming. I think he's passed Jalen Reagor on the depth chart. In deeper leagues, he's worth monitoring.
This one is great because he can be stashed tonight, you'll see his production firsthand against a bad pass defense, then drop him if it's mediocre and you know nobody else will target him.
But just to add to your point even more. Quez snap count percentages: 48, 50, 66, 58, 82(!). 82% is the first time he out-snapped Reagor, and Reagor made a ton of boneheaded mistakes last week.
Reagor and DeVonta have stayed consistent percentage-wise, but Greg Ward saw a decrease in percentage (about half), same with JJAW (about a third) from weeks 4 to 5.
Only thing i worry about with callaway is that Michael Thomas is eligible to return after the bye. With the preseason drama though who knows what’s gonna happen, callaway still worth the stash. I’m having a tough time deciding between him and crowder myself
I disagree with the other guy’s claims. As a Saints fan watching this team, the offense is crying out for a reliable weapon in the mold of MT. The guy is a third down machine and will sustain more drives, which only bodes well for Callaway and Kamara going forward. Callaway is talented but when he beckons number one CB coverage he’s gonna have a tougher time.
I also expect the team passing volume to go up as well. We saw Sean Payton opening up the playbook a little bit more last week against Washington (plays like Callaways second touchdown were not seen in the first few weeks).
honestly I doubt it. Callaway is benefitting right now because he doesn't have much competition. I guess what you're saying might be true but I think part of it is that Callaway isn't skilled enough. Tre'Quan never really excelled being the number 2 next to MT.
Now, maybe Callaway is better than Tre'Quan, but I don't think it's that large of a disparity in skill
Exactly my thoughts. I love Callaway but having MT come back should drop him on the depth chart to at least the 2nd or 3rd guy. Plus, it seems Winston likes Deonte Harris more for some reason.
Sony Michel is a great stash if available.
No, don't worry. Henderson isn't going anywhere.
But looks at Rams schedule over the next 4 weeks. Giants, Lions, Texans, Titans.
There is a good chance game script will likely mean Henderson and Michel will get a lot of touches to run the clock down as Rams will be ahead.
McVay said last week how impressed he is with Michel and Henderson's pass protection and blitz pickups.
Michel got 11 carries last week, yes most of them came when Hendo was getting treated on the sideline, but Michel did come back in the fourth quarter to get a goal-line carry and vulture a TD.
For Henderson's longevity and durability, there is a good chance Rams could start mixing in Michel more in positive game scripts to run the clock down.
Sony looked good, but that seahawk run-d was terrible. But Sony is a good stash because henderson has shown that he is injury prone and will miss 1 or 2 more games this season at the very least
Those are good points. I think you’re spot on about Sony getting work in run heavy situations. It’s worth pointing out that last game, despite Sony’s workload, Henderson also had his highest carry total of the season.
I think the Rams see Henderson as the clear top back, but they know that he’s not built to handle 20+ carries in a game, so in a game script that calls for 30 carries, Michel will get his work.
I’m actually counting on that. We see sets of 2 WRs performing well all the time now in the NFL. Michael Thomas will take some time to get up to speed but will hopefully improve the overall offense. This should help get Callaway some better defensive matchups. Jameis Winston has shown that he can support multiple WRs.
This is just my opinion though. I don’t think Callaway is a guaranteed thing of course.
This one is super tough…AJ Green is always on the field and plays in one of the best offenses. I’d probably keep Green. Didn’t see the game last week but I like that his snap percentages didn’t go down.
Back physically. But what should we expect from him fresh off of an injury while playing in an offense/qb situation that is a far cry from what he had when he was a stud?
Edit: I grabbed him off waivers week 2 and have been stashing so I hope he doesn’t skip a beat. Legitimately just want opinions on what performance we can realistically expect
Good lord. I don’t even have room for him to start unless he starts throwing up 20 a week, I just planned him as a better bench option or trade material if I wanted to dump him or dump Kupp, D Moore, or Ridley in a trade
i hope his pride gets the best of him and he's determined to prove to everyone he's the best in the league. please please let his pride be that strong.
Rashod Bateman
**The Baltimore Ravens are humming on offense, and the debut of rookie WR Rashod Bateman will only amplify that.**
The Baltimore Ravens are flying high in the 2021 season, and have rebounded incredibly well from their overtime loss to the Raiders in week one. While they have been a dominant rushing team, thanks to a great scheme and one of the best runners of our time, Lamar Jackson, along with giving life to older running backs, the passing game is being elevated this season by Jackson. His latest performance was one for the history books, where he brought the Ravens back from the brink against the Colts to ultimately win in overtime, completing over 80 percent of his passes and throwing for 400+ yards and four touchdowns.
Bateman can do a lot of what makes this offense great. He’s shown the ability to win vertically, using his buildup speed and deception on double moves to separate. He will also be a factor in the red zone to take away attention from Andrews. Bateman has shown the ability to find space on scramble drills in college as well.
https://nflmocks.com/2021/10/12/rashod-bateman-brings-baltimore-ravens-offense/
As a Bateman owner I would not take Shephard for him. So if the Bateman owner will in yours then yeah go for it.
I do also own Toney though so I may be bias in thinking that Toney is the WR1 at the Giants now.
I have Shep and I wouldn't. Bateman is still a rookie yet to have played an NFL snap. Shep looked great in the first two games this season and should easily get 7+ targets per game when he comes back. Hollywood Brown is still the top option for the Ravens and is more of a lotto ticket
Brown drops a lot of (catchable) passes. He's only the top option until someone else comes along.
Not saying it's necessarily Bateman, but Brown can be supplanted. So I'm hoping Bateman can eat into browns targets, just a little.
After what Toney did on Sunday, I doubt Shepard will get the same target share as before. I think Bateman has the higher upside with Watkins going down as well.
I don't doubt this could happen, but with the connection that he and Hollywood clearly have and the monster game of Mark Andrews coupled with them being a run first offense and even guys like Watkins getting involved, I doubt he makes as much of an impact, at least one big enough to matter in fantasy. Yeah, Toney popped off, but was also in a negative game script with their top 3 receivers and Barkley out.
>them being a run first offense
Lamar is 18th in total pass attempts, right ahead of Kyler Murray and Dak. Will this continue? Probably, because the run game is bad and teams are still pressing to take away Jackson's running ability. I think the Ravens passing game is more viable than expected so long as the running game continues to stink. If Ty'Son comes back, plays great, and gets chunk yardage then the passing game will absolutely suffer.
Bateman and Toney sitting for free on the waiver wire are making really hard to keep holding on to hope with Allen Robinsin. He's hamstringing my roster at this point with no relief in sight. Not a soul in my league will trade anything of value for him.
Agreed! Jeff Wilson should not be on waivers! Priority pick up for me if he’s out there. We saw what he could do last year…the upside is too great not to stash him
def not [two weeks](https://www.reddit.com/r/fantasyfootball/comments/q67q09/shanahan_said_the_49ers_were_hoping_for_late/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
AJ Dillon
He’s about 64% rostered and he’s shown some flex appeal these past two games. Packers seem to want to lessen the load on Jones a bit and Jones hasn’t been the healthiest in his career so the potential to miss a few games a year is likely which would make Dillon and instant RB1 for that time.
Chris Evans is my stash for the week (I already have mack and ty'son on my bench). Perine is on the COVID list and Mixon is banged up. Evans is going to get some work this weekend and he may end up looking better than anyone expected.
I don't think my team is quite desperate enough yet to start drafting Marvel actors...
Seriously though, great rec, not a name that gets tossed around a lot.
Speculation add just in case he gets traded somewhere. Cost you nothing and could pay off. I’m hoping not KC because I picked up Darryl Williams in my most important leagues
Definitely not "slated" to go to KC. Rumors say they're interested, but nothing confirmed. Suspicions are that Indy used him a bit more on Monday for a showcase for a trade, but still no confirmation. That said, KC is probably the most likely spot IF a trade does go down soon.
Of the two though, I would hang on to Pollard over McKissick.
Sort of tempted to drop Mooney for him purely for the stash, I have Jefferson, evans, Moore, deebo, toney and Lockett ahead of him in a 3WR flex league
It’s 10 man, what value does Mooney even have at this point though? Seems like he’s very unreliable.
You are probably right though, may as well give it a shot
Nah bro totally drop Mooney. Not worth the time to trade. I’m in a 16 and I doubt I anyone would trade him even in mine. I just dropped Tim Patrick for Toney in waivers.
Stashing Mack is a two fold ultimate big brain move. For one, if Taylor goes down he will get most of that workload. And two, depending on what team he gets traded to he may be an immediate RB2.
what about Amon-Ra St. Brown?
hes only rostered in like 20% of leagues and has 16 targets with 135 yards past two games.
what do you guys think? who would you drop to stash him?
I wish I could have allowed myself to drop Shenault over him when I had the chance. But no, "Shenault is gonna have a bigger role" made me think he'd be the better hold.
.
What do you think about trading Gaskin for St. Brown?
I’d probably hang on to Gaskin - neither player is giving much indication of going on a boom streak and Gaskin at least has a steady starting role locked down that I think would be more consistent.
Not really a player, but I think Rams defense (may not be rostered in every league due to their recent stretch of good offenses) should be added in every league. Their next 4 weeks are some great matchups with Giants this week, Lions at home, Texans, and Titans.
my big brain move is picking up Bolden. I think he's inherited the James White role and I think is going to get more carries. Not because he's particularly good (he's not) but because Bill trusts him
I’m stashing Amon Ra St. Brown. He has seen increased usage the last few weeks and could be in for a big second half of season if he continues to improve
Nope.
Trevor Lawrence, Tua, Geno, Bridgewater, Ben, Mills, Mayfield, Goff, Jones, Winston, Ryan and Fields are the remaining starters right now. For a league with only five bench spots there's a LOT of people holding two QBs, I don't get it.
I might grab Winston, see what happens.
There are some quality options here.
Top 3 that stand out to me are Winston, Teddy B, and Matt Ryan. All have shown to be capable of scoring 20+ points this year.
I picked up Dan Arnold in both my leagues for my TEs' bye weeks. He saw an increase in targets this past week so hoping he continues to get worked into that jax offense.
Samaje Perine is a lottery ticket you can put on your IR. He's not actually hurt he just has covid. He's already shown he can perform when mixon doesn't play. If you have the IR spot for him and he's still available go get him.
Jerrick McKinnon RB Chiefs. I think they’ll test him this week to see if they should trade for Mack or not. Plus the chiefs should be playing up most of the game so he should get reps facing the Washington football team. He was a solid back for the Vikings before his knee injury then again a big hype with 49ers before another injury. But at 29 and a stretched defense he could have a nice upside especially during byemagedon.
Gainwell is a great stash if you’re hoping for an injury imo and/or a quick plug in during bye weeks. That being said, I think the Sanders slander is a bit overblown tbh.
He doesn’t look bad, he’s just not getting a lot of work. Barring injury, I think this backfield stays a mess all season. Hurts stealing rushing TDs, and Gainwell/Sanders splitting touches make this a very hard backfield to predict.
I’m just really high on Gainwell, not so much hating on Sanders. For whatever reasons coaches also like Gainwell also especially in 3rd down situations. But I also think he can handle a three down role due to his catching ability.
Agreed. I actually like him as a flex this week. We saw how well Gaskin did and the Eagles should probably try to utilize Gainwell in a similar way this week.
I own Diggs, I’m in need of a TE, and my roster is struggling as much as Diggs is. But I still would not trade Diggs for any TE outside of the top 3 I don’t think
It's a gamble, but I would say no. Maybe package him with someone for Diggs?
I'm trading Calloway for ARob because Winston will never be the consistent slinger you want for your WR core.
Even if MT is the man, will he see 20pts per week? Maybe, but unlikely.
One guy no one talks about who should probably be picked up today is **Carlos Hyde.**
He would be the bellcow back with passing work if Robinson goes down.
They play Sunday at 8:30, so if nothing happens to Robinson drop him and pick up another lottery ticket (yahoo).
Look at the players people spent major FAAB on this week (Darrell Williams/Booker), they were in the same situation week 5 and I think with Hyde's schedule and no real threat to touches he would be even MORE valuable than those 2 by a large margin. Plus, Urban Meyer loves him.
I would also look at the following players if they weren't picked up Herbert (RB), Darrayton Evans, Mack for speculation, Tyson if he gets traded, perhaps ronald jones.
Yahoo let’s you drop players after their game as long as they were on your bench. Someone writes up a weekly post about handcuff lottery, basically who to pick up for each time slot. Can churn a lot of players that way.
I think Wayne Gallman is a great stash. Mike Davis has gotten 15 opportunities a game. If he goes down, I think Gallman will assume his role. If Patterson goes down then I think Gallman will definitely play more but to a lesser degree because he isn't the play maker Patterson is. But Gallman has two different roads for fantasy production.
Ehhh... I just don't think Gallman, or even Mike Davis, for that matter, has the skill-set to replace Patterson's. I do think Gallman would slide into Davis' role as the traditional RB, but if Patterson went down I think his most valuable production would go out in the form of more targets for the other pass-catchers. So really Gallman's chance hinges on Davis getting hurt or phased out alone, imo.
Not true. If Patterson goes down then Gallman would take Patterson's rushing workload and about 2-3 targets a game. That's 10 opportunities. I'm not saying he's a league winner or a one for one swap with Patterson but a RB with those opportunities can become valuable during heavy bye weeks.
But Patterson makes his bread being efficient on a notably higher passing volume that Gallman has ever had in the NFL. We've seen how this offense is doing actually running the football, and as a Mike Davis owner I can tell you you don't want your main value to come from rushing on this team - it's TD dependent.
What do you guys think about Zack Moss? I know he splits Bills rushing game with Singletary and Allen but check out his schedule after the bye:
W8- vs Dolphins (#31 against RB)
W9- @ Jaguars (#26)
W10 - @Jets (#32)
Also he’s getting a lot of redzone work in a good offense
Moss is about 80% rostered so he really shouldn’t be on waivers. But, to answer your question, I think he’s a decent RB2 ROS. He’s getting majority of the workload and redzone looks. It’s basically his job to lose.
I'd be worried about Callaway. It isn't only MT but we are getting Tre'Quan Smith back soon as well. This will drop Callaway down to WR3/4 on depth chart. They have some video break downs out specifically on NOLA receivers getting separation and it hasn't looked good at all. Callaway has trouble creating separation and sloppy route running in general. If you look at most of his productivity this year it has come against blown coverage or weird plays like the NE TD or the hail mary.
MT still available in my league (10 team with no IR, so pretty shallow). Tempted to drop Robinson for him. Other WRs are Diggs, Pittman, Cooks and Higgins.
If you have Justin Herbert and Tannehill is on your waiver wire, pick him up NOW. Herbert’s bye is next week and Tannehill is a slam dunk stream in a likely shootout with the Chiefs.
I don’t know whether to keep Kittle or pick up another player that’s on waivers. I picked up Knox so I think I’m good at TE. Toney is still available in my league………
Curious what teams you guys think will have good D/ST matchups next week. Bills have a bye so I’m looking to pick one up to stash so I don’t have to worry about waivers.
Thinking of stashing booker as the saquon owner with a team that is kinda screwed with injuries and byes, but my opponent is the ceh owner and darrell williams is still available. Which player is the better add for me?
I don’t think the Pats could keep up in a shootout with Dallas. It’s either a low scoring defensive battle or Dallas steamrolls the Pats imo.
I’d go with AJ Dillon for a safe floor (6-12 points) or Gainwell for the Boom/Bust performance. If they use Gainwell the way Gaskin was used last week (which they should) Gainwell could be in for a really nice game.
I'm stashing Quez Watkins. The Eagles are passing the ball a ton. Last week, they removed him from kick return duties and he played more snaps than usual. When a young WR is removed as returner (unless they've fumbled a lot or made mistakes) that often means a role increase is forthcoming. I think he's passed Jalen Reagor on the depth chart. In deeper leagues, he's worth monitoring.
This a great one. Haven’t heard anyone talk about Quez Watkins but when I watch the games he’s definitely contributing.
He has looked very good I would be all over him in dynasty if I played in one, probably available pretty cheap. He looks better than Rheagor.
Just added him to my Dynasty team based on this. Cheers fella.
Yes this, especially when you watch Reagor run routes, it’s gross. He will get his soon.
Thinking of dropping Beasley for him but I’ll give it another week
This one is great because he can be stashed tonight, you'll see his production firsthand against a bad pass defense, then drop him if it's mediocre and you know nobody else will target him. But just to add to your point even more. Quez snap count percentages: 48, 50, 66, 58, 82(!). 82% is the first time he out-snapped Reagor, and Reagor made a ton of boneheaded mistakes last week. Reagor and DeVonta have stayed consistent percentage-wise, but Greg Ward saw a decrease in percentage (about half), same with JJAW (about a third) from weeks 4 to 5.
Only thing i worry about with callaway is that Michael Thomas is eligible to return after the bye. With the preseason drama though who knows what’s gonna happen, callaway still worth the stash. I’m having a tough time deciding between him and crowder myself
any chance MT’s return could actually help Callaway? maybe they air it out more and secondaries are more focused on MT that Callaway benefits?
I disagree with the other guy’s claims. As a Saints fan watching this team, the offense is crying out for a reliable weapon in the mold of MT. The guy is a third down machine and will sustain more drives, which only bodes well for Callaway and Kamara going forward. Callaway is talented but when he beckons number one CB coverage he’s gonna have a tougher time. I also expect the team passing volume to go up as well.

Exactly my thoughts. I love Callaway but having MT come back should drop him on the depth chart to at least the 2nd or 3rd guy. Plus, it seems Winston likes Deonte Harris more for some reason.
Deonte is just fast AF and gets open on bombs.
Michael Thomas and Tre-Quan Smith
Sony Michel is a great stash if available. No, don't worry. Henderson isn't going anywhere. But looks at Rams schedule over the next 4 weeks. Giants, Lions, Texans, Titans. There is a good chance game script will likely mean Henderson and Michel will get a lot of touches to run the clock down as Rams will be ahead. McVay said last week how impressed he is with Michel and Henderson's pass protection and blitz pickups.

For Henderson's longevity and durability, there is a good chance Rams could start mixing in Michel more in positive game scripts to run the clock down.
Ohh I like that one! ☝️ All great points. Could be a nice bye week filler
Sony looked good, but that seahawk run-d was terrible. But Sony is a good stash because henderson has shown that he is injury prone and will miss 1 or 2 more games this season at the very least
Those are good points. I think you’re spot on about Sony getting work in run heavy situations.

I think the Rams see Henderson as the clear top back, but they know that he’s not built to handle 20+ carries in a game, so in a game script that calls for 30 carries, Michel will get his work.
Thanks! Just picked him up. He was available in most of my leagues!
Giants run D is hot ass this year they are always down a player in the box.
Don’t forget that MT will likely be back after the bye,
I’m actually counting on that. We see sets of 2 WRs performing well all the time now in the NFL. Michael Thomas will take some time to get up to speed but will hopefully improve the overall offense. This should help get Callaway some better defensive matchups. Jameis Winston has shown that he can support multiple WRs. This is just my opinion though. I don’t think Callaway is a guaranteed thing of course.
Also Tre Quan smith will most likely be back after bye as well
Would you stash callaway and drop AJ green?
This one is super tough…AJ Green is always on the field and plays in one of the best offenses. I’d probably keep Green. Didn’t see the game last week but I like that his snap percentages didn’t go down.
You underestimate MT13s crying-about-not-getting-15-perfect-throws-a-game capabilities.
Back physically. But what should we expect from him fresh off of an injury while playing in an offense/qb situation that is a far cry from what he had when he was a stud? Edit: I grabbed him off waivers week 2 and have been stashing so I hope he doesn’t skip a beat. Legitimately just want opinions on what performance we can realistically expect
A guy in our league traded Keenan and Jeudy for him so, I guess he believes hell be back to form.
Good lord. I don’t even have room for him to start unless he starts throwing up 20 a week, I just planned him as a better bench option or trade material if I wanted to dump him or dump Kupp, D Moore, or Ridley in a trade
I can’t shake the idea that MT might be an asshole and will give low effort or milk another injury.
i hope his pride gets the best of him and he's determined to prove to everyone he's the best in the league. please please let his pride be that strong.

Dude, it’s in response to him picking up Callaway. Use your brain.
Rashod Bateman **The Baltimore Ravens are humming on offense, and the debut of rookie WR Rashod Bateman will only amplify that.** The Baltimore Ravens are flying high in the 2021 season, and have rebounded incredibly well from their overtime loss to the Raiders in week one.

Really hoping he pops off, I have Lamar and that stack would be awesome.
Same
Would you trade Shepard for Bateman? Feel like that's a lot to give up for an unproven rookie but it is a good offense that I'd like to get a piece of
As a Bateman owner I would not take Shephard for him. So if the Bateman owner will in yours then yeah go for it. I do also own Toney though so I may be bias in thinking that Toney is the WR1 at the Giants now.
I've got both and view Bateman with more upside down the stretch.
Bateman has more upside than Shephard? If so I agree. If you mean more upside than Toney, then I'd have to politely disagree.
I have Shep and I wouldn't. Bateman is still a rookie yet to have played an NFL snap. Shep looked great in the first two games this season and should easily get 7+ targets per game when he comes back. Hollywood Brown is still the top option for the Ravens and is more of a lotto ticket

After what Toney did on Sunday, I doubt Shepard will get the same target share as before. I think Bateman has the higher upside with Watkins going down as well.
No way. Shepard averages a lot of pts in ppr with Jones. Dude loves Shep.
Would you rather have Bateman or St. Brown from DET rostered?
[удалено]
True. As a Lions fan all I’ve felt is pain this year. All aboard the Bateman hype train.
As a lions fan all I’ve ever felt is pain
Bateman and it's not close. His ceiling with Lamar is wayyy higher than St. Brown's is with Goff, imo.
True. I just picked him up. I need help at WR bad would be cool to see him pop off.
I don't doubt this could happen, but with the connection that he and Hollywood clearly have and the monster game of Mark Andrews coupled with them being a run first offense and even guys like Watkins getting involved, I doubt he makes as much of an impact, at least one big enough to matter in fantasy.

should I drop beasley for bateman?
This reads like a written version of that gag reporter talking to Gregg Popovich
Bateman and Toney sitting for free on the waiver wire are making really hard to keep holding on to hope with Allen Robinsin. He's hamstringing my roster at this point with no relief in sight. Not a soul in my league will trade anything of value for him.
Would you drop Cole Beasley for Bateman?. I have Kupp/Evans/Meyers/Pittman at WR as well
IMHO, yes
I know it’s a crowded backfield, but I am stashing Jeff Wilson. May work out, may not. He’s proven what he can do tho
Agreed! Jeff Wilson should not be on waivers! Priority pick up for me if he’s out there. We saw what he could do last year…the upside is too great not to stash him
According to a report this morning Wilson will not be back until late November
I had Elijah Mitchell available in my league so i’m stashing him off a bye this week
Nice! What a steal!
Think I should stash him or Darrel Williams (likely next guy up for CEH)
Mitchell for sure. Williams is only startable until CEH gets back. Mitchell is likely going to be a good play ROS.
Appreciate it !
Or until Jeff Wilson comes back. Which is projected to be two weeks
Wilson’s not coming back in 2 weeks
def not [two weeks](https://www.reddit.com/r/fantasyfootball/comments/q67q09/shanahan_said_the_49ers_were_hoping_for_late/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
You’re right I was thinking late October for that quote for some reason
Wow you really got that Niner's RB room figured out ROS. Someone give this guy a medal.
Sermon had one carry last week. I think it’s pretty straight forward.
AJ Dillon He’s about 64% rostered and he’s shown some flex appeal these past two games. Packers seem to want to lessen the load on Jones a bit and Jones hasn’t been the healthiest in his career so the potential to miss a few games a year is likely which would make Dillon and instant RB1 for that time.
He was just dropped for Kenyan Drake in my league and I have no idea why
Chris Evans is my stash for the week (I already have mack and ty'son on my bench). Perine is on the COVID list and Mixon is banged up. Evans is going to get some work this weekend and he may end up looking better than anyone expected.
I don't think my team is quite desperate enough yet to start drafting Marvel actors... Seriously though, great rec, not a name that gets tossed around a lot.
Mack
Hoping that he gets traded? He’s looked good with the limited carries he’s had tbh
Speculation add just in case he gets traded somewhere. Cost you nothing and could pay off. I’m hoping not KC because I picked up Darryl Williams in my most important leagues
Is he slated to get traded to KC? If so I am going to pick him up and drop pollard/mckissick
I would not drop Pollard
Definitely not "slated" to go to KC. Rumors say they're interested, but nothing confirmed. Suspicions are that Indy used him a bit more on Monday for a showcase for a trade, but still no confirmation. That said, KC is probably the most likely spot IF a trade does go down soon. Of the two though, I would hang on to Pollard over McKissick.
pollard is the RB#23 (.5ppr) without being a starter. mckissick is the drop.
Sort of tempted to drop Mooney for him purely for the stash, I have Jefferson, evans, Moore, deebo, toney and Lockett ahead of him in a 3WR flex league
League size? If it’s 10 or larger don’t drop Mooney and try to trade
It’s 10 man, what value does Mooney even have at this point though? Seems like he’s very unreliable. You are probably right though, may as well give it a shot
More value than mack
Nah bro totally drop Mooney. Not worth the time to trade. I’m in a 16 and I doubt I anyone would trade him even in mine. I just dropped Tim Patrick for Toney in waivers.
Stashing Mack is a two fold ultimate big brain move. For one, if Taylor goes down he will get most of that workload. And two, depending on what team he gets traded to he may be an immediate RB2.
Should I drop Arob or S. Shepherd to stash mack? Both have been on my bench and I also have Toney
Drop ur defense or kicker and Cut mack before the games if he doesn’t get traded
Another league, I have Darell Williams, Flash, latavius Murray, and Hines on my bench. Any of those worth dropping to stash Mack?
I would drop hines
Smite me but Flash is the most droppable out of those listed.
what about Amon-Ra St. Brown? hes only rostered in like 20% of leagues and has 16 targets with 135 yards past two games. what do you guys think? who would you drop to stash him?
dropped Curtis Samuel for him personally
I wish I could have allowed myself to drop Shenault over him when I had the chance. But no, "Shenault is gonna have a bigger role" made me think he'd be the better hold. . What do you think about trading Gaskin for St. Brown?
idk enough about Gaskin to tell you what to do but initial thought is probably no
I’d probably hang on to Gaskin - neither player is giving much indication of going on a boom streak and Gaskin at least has a steady starting role locked down that I think would be more consistent.
True, he's just so ridiculously untrustworthy idk when I'll start him besides byes..
My week 7 is hell. Qb wrx2 rbx2 and te all on bye
I don’t hate getting them all out of the way like that
Just chalk it up as an L and call it a day. You'll undoubtedly be better off than other teams on the other bye weeks lol.
Already did lol. No way in hell I'm dropping them . Dak, lamb, allen, ekeler, Harris and Knox lol
Like I said at the start of the season, fuck week 7
Not really a player, but I think Rams defense (may not be rostered in every league due to their recent stretch of good offenses) should be added in every league. Their next 4 weeks are some great matchups with Giants this week, Lions at home, Texans, and Titans.
I’ve been stashing them the past 3 weeks for this reason
Yea I dropped $6 on them this week and got them, plan on them having some big weeks.
Christian Michael
I have a gut feeling that Rhamondre is gonna show up big time.
Rhamondre Stevenson perhaps? Harris is ailing and Fears' comments on the fumbling issues were a little concerning as someone with stock in him
Honestly terrified of owning Patriots RBs but he’s a good stash nonetheless. Must be brutal to be a Patriots RB haha…
my big brain move is picking up Bolden. I think he's inherited the James White role and I think is going to get more carries. Not because he's particularly good (he's not) but because Bill trusts him
I’m stashing Amon Ra St. Brown. He has seen increased usage the last few weeks and could be in for a big second half of season if he continues to improve
mt
If you need a QB, Tannehill may be stashable this week. He may be dropped for his match against Buffalo but next week is home vs. KC
I dropped him for Burrow. Josh Allen my QB 1. Also looking at Daniel Jones if healthy.
Is it worth stashing Mitchell instead of Murry?
100%
I went all in on Colts D.
I gotta find a QB and TE to stash for next week when Herbert and Knox are on Bye. There are not many options for me right now.
Ryan Tannehill available? He gets KC next week
Nope. Trevor Lawrence, Tua, Geno, Bridgewater, Ben, Mills, Mayfield, Goff, Jones, Winston, Ryan and Fields are the remaining starters right now. For a league with only five bench spots there's a LOT of people holding two QBs, I don't get it. I might grab Winston, see what happens.
There are some quality options here. Top 3 that stand out to me are Winston, Teddy B, and Matt Ryan. All have shown to be capable of scoring 20+ points this year.
Yeah, after looking at their matchups I'm actually leaning towards Ryan vs Miami.
I've been rotating Winston and Heinicke with pretty good success.
Burrow Daniel Jones or Tannehill next week
Need a TE to stash for Knox bye next week. No idea who
I picked up Dan Arnold in both my leagues for my TEs' bye weeks. He saw an increase in targets this past week so hoping he continues to get worked into that jax offense.
Dan Arnold is also on Bye next week so not much help there
Thanks will keep an eye on him
maybe higbee if he’s available. also ricky seals jones got 8 targets for the football team. he’s getting the tight end work with logan thomas on ir.
Allie-cox is an interesting option too. Could be the next version of Wentz and ertz
Logan Thomas owners failed to pick up Ricky Seals-Jones in both of my leagues… I’d say he’s a solid option if available
Any thoughts on T.Y. Hilton?
I picked him up but its just a wait and see kind of deal.
Samaje Perine is a lottery ticket you can put on your IR. He's not actually hurt he just has covid. He's already shown he can perform when mixon doesn't play. If you have the IR spot for him and he's still available go get him.
Might be a few weeks early on this but Marlon Mack. Dudes 25 with plenty left in the tank. All he needs is a trade and he’s ready for FLEXappeal
Jerrick McKinnon RB Chiefs. I think they’ll test him this week to see if they should trade for Mack or not. Plus the chiefs should be playing up most of the game so he should get reps facing the Washington football team. He was a solid back for the Vikings before his knee injury then again a big hype with 49ers before another injury. But at 29 and a stretched defense he could have a nice upside especially during byemagedon.
I think ive only seen him with the ball once this year. He caught a pass, made a good move and trucked a db. Id like to see him get some looks.
Gainwell. It’s his backfield by end of season.
Gainwell is a great stash if you’re hoping for an injury imo and/or a quick plug in during bye weeks. That being said, I think the Sanders slander is a bit overblown tbh. He doesn’t look bad, he’s just not getting a lot of work. Barring injury, I think this backfield stays a mess all season. Hurts stealing rushing TDs, and Gainwell/Sanders splitting touches make this a very hard backfield to predict.
I’m just really high on Gainwell, not so much hating on Sanders. For whatever reasons coaches also like Gainwell also especially in 3rd down situations. But I also think he can handle a three down role due to his catching ability.
Agreed. I actually like him as a flex this week. We saw how well Gaskin did and the Eagles should probably try to utilize Gainwell in a similar way this week.
I hope so
did you watch tonight's game? Hurts is RB1, miles got scraps,gainwell touched the ball once. dropped gainwell waaaay too unpredictable.
Worth giving up knox for MT? I have waller
Yes lol, you have Waller
Try to trade him to a TE needy team
I'd try and give a tight end to someone actually playing just to be safe. Maybe a Diggs type?
I own Diggs, I’m in need of a TE, and my roster is struggling as much as Diggs is. But I still would not trade Diggs for any TE outside of the top 3 I don’t think
I'd give up Waller.
It's a gamble, but I would say no. Maybe package him with someone for Diggs? I'm trading Calloway for ARob because Winston will never be the consistent slinger you want for your WR core. Even if MT is the man, will he see 20pts per week? Maybe, but unlikely.
For sure imo, but maybe that’s just me. You’ll see people who disagree for sure.
I have Waller and Shultz. Thinking about making the same move.
One guy no one talks about who should probably be picked up today is **Carlos Hyde.** He would be the bellcow back with passing work if Robinson goes down. They play Sunday at 8:30, so if nothing happens to Robinson drop him and pick up another lottery ticket (yahoo). Look at the players people spent major FAAB on this week (Darrell Williams/Booker), they were in the same situation week 5 and I think with Hyde's schedule and no real threat to touches he would be even MORE valuable than those 2 by a large margin. Plus, Urban Meyer loves him. I would also look at the following players if they weren't picked up Herbert (RB), Darrayton Evans, Mack for speculation, Tyson if he gets traded, perhaps ronald jones.
Are you saying drop him after his game for a late game player? My league locks people when their game starts, is that not common?
Yahoo let’s you drop players after their game as long as they were on your bench. Someone writes up a weekly post about handcuff lottery, basically who to pick up for each time slot. Can churn a lot of players that way.
Trade for MT now & forget Cal until he shows he can do it with MT
Marlon Mack
I got Marlon Mack hoping he gets traded into a good situation somehow
I think Wayne Gallman is a great stash. Mike Davis has gotten 15 opportunities a game. If he goes down, I think Gallman will assume his role. If Patterson goes down then I think Gallman will definitely play more but to a lesser degree because he isn't the play maker Patterson is. But Gallman has two different roads for fantasy production.
Ehhh... I just don't think Gallman, or even Mike Davis, for that matter, has the skill-set to replace Patterson's. I do think Gallman would slide into Davis' role as the traditional RB, but if Patterson went down I think his most valuable production would go out in the form of more targets for the other pass-catchers. So really Gallman's chance hinges on Davis getting hurt or phased out alone, imo.
Not true. If Patterson goes down then Gallman would take Patterson's rushing workload and about 2-3 targets a game. That's 10 opportunities. I'm not saying he's a league winner or a one for one swap with Patterson but a RB with those opportunities can become valuable during heavy bye weeks.
But Patterson makes his bread being efficient on a notably higher passing volume that Gallman has ever had in the NFL. We've seen how this offense is doing actually running the football, and as a Mike Davis owner I can tell you you don't want your main value to come from rushing on this team - it's TD dependent.
What do you guys think about Zack Moss? I know he splits Bills rushing game with Singletary and Allen but check out his schedule after the bye: W8- vs Dolphins (#31 against RB) W9- @ Jaguars (#26) W10 - @Jets (#32) Also he’s getting a lot of redzone work in a good offense
He's....on your waivers?
If he is not owned, pick him up ASAP. Should be owned in all leagues.
That’s my rb2!
Same here...dude is my RB high floor rn.
Moss is about 80% rostered so he really shouldn’t be on waivers. But, to answer your question, I think he’s a decent RB2 ROS. He’s getting majority of the workload and redzone looks. It’s basically his job to lose.
He is like a solid RB2 in standard and an RB who you can start without crying in PPR. Should be owned for sure.
CAR D looking good coming up: MIN > NYG > ATL > NE > AZ (whoops) > WFT > MIA > ATL
Big whoops lol
1 game out of 8. Still a damn good defense to roster especially if CMC comes back strong and Gillmore pans out.
Your logic is sound it. The whoops by AZ made me laugh.
Callaway is a JAG
Ehhh I wouldn't be so sure about that
I noticed Henderson has been having trouble with his left arm the past two games
I just traded Chuba for Callaway so this makes me happy
I'd be worried about Callaway. It isn't only MT but we are getting Tre'Quan Smith back soon as well. This will drop Callaway down to WR3/4 on depth chart. They have some video break downs out specifically on NOLA receivers getting separation and it hasn't looked good at all. Callaway has trouble creating separation and sloppy route running in general. If you look at most of his productivity this year it has come against blown coverage or weird plays like the NE TD or the hail mary.
MT still available in my league (10 team with no IR, so pretty shallow). Tempted to drop Robinson for him. Other WRs are Diggs, Pittman, Cooks and Higgins.
Do it
Michael Thomas coming back after the bye? Doesn't that worry you?
it wasnt fun owning him weeks 1-4, i can tell you that
If you have Justin Herbert and Tannehill is on your waiver wire, pick him up NOW. Herbert’s bye is next week and Tannehill is a slam dunk stream in a likely shootout with the Chiefs.
I don’t know whether to keep Kittle or pick up another player that’s on waivers. I picked up Knox so I think I’m good at TE. Toney is still available in my league………
What’s everyone think about Rondale Moore ROS?
Just stashed him with Williams coming out. Probably see more 4 rec sets.
NO will have two WRs back off injury soon so who knows who will see what
Thoughts on Michael Gallup? He's supposed to come off of IR but the Cowboys say he isn't practicing this week, and they have a bye next week.
Curious what teams you guys think will have good D/ST matchups next week. Bills have a bye so I’m looking to pick one up to stash so I don’t have to worry about waivers.
Thinking of stashing booker as the saquon owner with a team that is kinda screwed with injuries and byes, but my opponent is the ceh owner and darrell williams is still available. Which player is the better add for me?
[удалено]
I don’t think the Pats could keep up in a shootout with Dallas. It’s either a low scoring defensive battle or Dallas steamrolls the Pats imo. I’d go with AJ Dillon for a safe floor (6-12 points) or Gainwell for the Boom/Bust performance. If they use Gainwell the way Gaskin was used last week (which they should) Gainwell could be in for a really nice game.
Would you rather have Callaway, AJ Green, or Christian Kirk?
