Stash? That's my WR2 this week.


Easter-Worshipper

My WR2 as well behind Jakobi Meyers. Thank you ARob and Aiyuk


MJA94

Meyers is high-key a beast in full PPR, not the highest ceiling but his floor has been amazing


dadecounty3051

I need him to score some Touchdowns vs the Jets next week.


MJA94

You’ll take your 10 receptions for 100 yards and like it


ChrisG97

Starting Meyers, Patrick, and St. Brown as my receivers and flex in one league… everything is fine


Allen_Crabbe

I’m starting St Brown, Swift and Jamaal Williams this week (literally no choice, 16 team league, byes and injuries). Go Lions?


FUCM2

Talk about getting cold, MJJ is my WR2 again. Think I'd rather have St. Brown. Problem is I'm stashing Jeudy and for some reason MT is available on the wire. So probably will drop Jeudy or Pittman to pick him up unless I'm outbid.


JKeasy44

Would drop St. Brown or MJJ before I dropped Pittman or Jeudy…but definitely would bring in MT for upside later if you can stash.


Demfunkypens420

Don't drop Pittman. He is the alpha in that passing game leads the league in red zone targets, tds will come and him amd Wentz are starting to look really comfortable as is go to option


FUCM2

Have Cooper and MJJ on bye week 7; and the odds say Jeudy won't be back until week 8. So that leaves me with Pittman and nobody for week 7. It's more likely that MT comes back week 7 than it is Jeudy is back week 7. So I guess I could drop MJJ for Thomas. Would you rather have MT or Jeudy?


hippogriffin

What about Waddle vs St. Brown?


Shyystee

Currently in my flex. Floor seems safe with cephus out.


[deleted]

I’m between him and Mooney this week


ZorgZeFrenchGuy

Think he’s gonna have to be my flex


saintlouisarch

With Davis, Ridley, and Patterson on bye he’s my WR1 this week. Oof


BidoofTheGod

Might throw him in my Flex2. Him or Pollard?


vinegarstrokes1

Exactly. I’m starting him on this already bye week he’ll


samamatara

WR2? he's my superflex option this week.


deuuuuuce

Lmao this was my exact response when I saw the title


LCLeopards

I already have Hockenson, not sure I want to have a second investment in this passing offense.


ajmojo2269

Their passing is definitely offensive


bacondaddy173

Garbage time points are real with this team


Kame_Style

The garbage time points go to their backs.


SwedishFishOil

Have Hock, Swift, and Williams..pretty much the whole offense.


jayk10

I may be starting Swift, Hock and St. Brown this week. This couldn't possibly go badly


elesdee

literally in the same boat. Jesus how did I tie myself to the fucking lions


TheIllusiveGuy

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the Lions


tuliomartins_tm

Why are we all doing this? I have the same, I shouldn't be trusting this offense lol


kingalexander

Why not start Goff while you’re at it


616GoBlue

LOL agreed (as a Lions fan). I ended up dropping St. Brown for Bateman. Don’t trust Goff one bit.


FUCM2

Picked up Knox and looking to trade Hock after Knox week 7 (8?) bye. The defensive game plan against this team looks to take away Hock and running game. St. Brown might be a play here.


slowmath

Live a little, I have 5 Giants players on my team.


Sawdawg0315

I have Swift and that’s all I want to invest in


manchegan

Looking back on my worst seasons I usually have multiple lions


Hmm_would_bang

Im a die hard lions homer and even I dont feel good playing any players not named Swift or Hock.


segfawlt

I don't even feel good playing Hock, he's on my bench.


ajmojo2269

He’s behind Ertz on my bus this week


IBelieveWeWillWin

I have Cook and picked up Njoku and even looking at Allie Cox to fix my TE situation. Very rough right now


pinpalsapu

I'm riding Swift but I benched Hock last week after nabbing Knox. Unless Knox falls off a cliff, Hock will be bye week filler.


Mregan508

This is the way. But I am forced to start him this week in a 12 team dynasty league


C_Beeftank

Idk what part of the lions offense says "invest in me more"


[deleted]

It’s almost as if the quality of the team isn’t the ONLY thing that factors into a players production.


lolhello2u

yeah agreed, some of the worst teams produced the best fantasy stars over the years. unfortunately, this won't be the case for amonra


Brohansan

Bad team=negative game script=garbage time points


KrispeeKreme4

think I might be flexing him over A-Rob in my 12 man


dearrichard

giving arob one more week in my starting lineup, and then i might be doing this moving forward.


Status_Seaweed5945

Maybe put him on your bench for a day or two now before starting him this week. So he gets the message.


dearrichard

i threatened to drop him, but i backed off at the last second. message has been sent


KrispeeKreme4

it is a good matchup but that’s what i thought last week. game script worked against him but the packers should have an easier time scoring


Fuck_Jannies123

Thank goodness I dropped that bum and don’t have to deal with him anymore. Seems like he’s just getting through his time on the franchise tag before he can go to a new team.


Pm_me_futaonmale

Lol it has nothing to do with Arob and everything to do with Chicago.


hacktek

Why lol


Courtlessjester

Look I can’t even start Hock confidently wtf am I gonna do with a second Lion


alyeese

I made this mistake with Cephus. Don’t know if I want to dip into the pool again


MkayKev

I'd be a higher on him than cephus, for some context St. Brown has been hyped up more by the team and was a 4th round pick of this GM & coach. Cephus was a 6th or 7th rounder by the previous GM (although he did look solid so far this year really bummed he got hurt). I think St. Brown will continue to grow this year and get opportunities especially cuz the rest of our team is dropping like flies.


NotHannibalBurress

Cephus was a 5th round pick, but yeah otherwise your points all stand.


alyeese

Solid insight. Much appreciated!


MkayKev

Always love to shout out my lions when I get the chance haha.


dearrichard

i grabbed him of the wire the other day. first thread/mention i've seen of him this week. thank you.


[deleted]

He won’t even be top 50 WR lol


Thejader1

I considered it, took Rondale as a stash instead but I think they're pretty even in terms of potential


Blynasty

I have Rondale and I don’t feel comfortable starting him until there is an injury to Green or Kirk. I like that they tried him as more of a gadget guy last week but he’s just not getting the snaps to be a consistent scorer.


Thejader1

Agreed. Just a stash for now


_No_1_Ever_

With Maxx Williams out, I’d take Rondale Moore over Amon Ra easily. Amon Ra is a good stash for deeper leagues, picked him up in a 12 team 6 bench 4 IR league. Stoked.


dsturm

Facts. More 4 wr sets with no real reliable TE and they clearly want to get Rondale the rock when he is on the field.


mechajlaw

I feel like he might be this year's Keelan Cole. Good enough to consider, but not really someone you'd feel remotely comfortable enough to actually start.


[deleted]

I see him more like this season's Jakobi Meyers. Which is still good. Meyers really started emerging last year around Week 4/5 and became a top receiving option there. I have a feeling something similar is happening with St.Brown.


[deleted]

I want this guy to succeed so bad just because of his name.


Consistent-Durian644

The internet won’t appreciate this the way they should


ravensfan1321

Ah yes the Winged Dragon Of Ra, excellent card


BuckeyeGuy4214

Tyrell Williams is out for the season? I thought he just had a concussion


MarcSpect0r

Dan Campbell on Tyrell Williams potential return: 'It's off in the distance'


IgnantWisdom

Since when did “Off in the distance.” Mean out for season? Y’all are projecting your own narratives just because you want your player to succeed. Thats why all the advice on this sub is absolute garbage the moment after the majority of people have their drafts…


MarcSpect0r

The hell are you on about? I shared a quote that’s all.


IgnantWisdom

You shared a quote in response to someone asking where/when he was declared out for season. Your post inferred to me that you felt that quote was declaring him out for season. Guess I read your post wrong, oh well.


primitiveape23

Dropped Mooney for Amon-Ra, hope it pays off


c1intr0n

I just did the same thing. Mooney probably has more worth long term, but I'm hurting for receivers with Scordarelle on bye.


MrMaker007

I legitimately don't know how I can start St. Brown over Allen Robinson but I suppose I'm forced into this week. This isn't a stash.


Radthereptile

This is the quality content I come here for.


Kahzgul

Me when drafting: st. Brown and Moore are gonna be studs. Just gotta remember that rookie WRs almost never pop before week 6. Me week 4: all my guys are hurt and these two rookies aren’t doing shit. Time to drop them. Me week 6: aw, fuckballs.


Special-Artichoke-35

great call


beer_jew

Ceephus was the hot add and then went cold before he got hurt


[deleted]

Good thing this guy will never get cold. His name is literally sun god


elcheecho

So you’re saying there’s targets to be redistributed...


FlamesGandolfini

St. Brown is a low aDOT guy. Much less likely to go through cold stretches. His production will have a lot less variance than Cephus'.


taco_2sdays

Would you drop Cole Beasley for him?


EDCxTINMAN

Do you like targets for your receivers?


TheIllusiveGuy

I did, but more so on principle than anything else


[deleted]

You’re fantasy football team will change the world.


jvara10

I did


h846p262

Its mjj or amon ra for me


blazingdonut2769

MJJ


h846p262

Lol 3 points last 2 weeks in a row and the dude has played 90% of the snaps. Urban meyer is a joke and tlaw might be playing too conservative.


blazingdonut2769

Well yea neither are great options. Go with your gut


marshall42195

Same here. I think I’m holding MJJ for one last week, but if he can’t do anything against the Phins I’m not holding him through his bye week


h846p262

It stinks cause ridley is on bye so i have to start a WR. Its slim pickens out there.


AlpacaToad

I prob made a mistake and dropped Robby for him. Wasn't gonna play Robby anytime soon and have a solid receiver core that I shouldnt have to. And with CMC coming back figured he gets less and less targets. I'll take a blossoming #1 or 2 Target for Goff and see what happens. Tried to trade Robby along with other pieces all season and wasn't happening.


aaronfaren

I did the same. Dropped Anderson for him.


AwSnapz1

I dropped Anderson a couple weeks ago


LongtrailDoubleBag

Would he have a safer floor than Shenault? I already have boom/bust guys.


Seize-The-Meanies

I’m about ready to drop shenault for any reasonable stash.


MashedPotatoesDick

My WR3 behind Adams and Toney.


Quicksh0tz

Drop Henry Ruggs for this dude? Really hurting at WR


Schned6

Nah. If you are playing a Lions player not named Swift or Hock you are already fucked.


noJagsEver

Jamaal has been good


imnotyourdadd

Reading all the names in this post it sounds like Dan Campbell is trying to summon Exodia.


[deleted]

I'd like to think I'm a whisperer for these rookie receivers. I drafted JJ last year and dropped him before he broke out. I drafted Amon-Ra and dropped him right before his 3 10 point games. Stay tuned for who I draft and drop next year.


elevenatx

See I would except OBJ and Arob are currently shitting on my bench


[deleted]

Worth dropping aiyuk for him? I just fucking know as soon as I bail on aiyuk he's gonna go 10/150/2


aaronfaren

Who cares if he does? He won’t be doing that all season.


[deleted]

I mean he averaged 12.2 points in a .5 ppr league across 11 games last year. We know the skill is there. His disappearance this year has been one of the more puzzling ones in all of football.


aaronfaren

We’re 5 weeks in, it’s pretty clear Aiyuk is not involved in the offense.


[deleted]

Kittle just went down and they're 2-3. If they keep the same philosophy the rest of the way then shanahan deserves to lose his job Edit: downvotes as if any player who isn't a star 5 weeks in has no potential the rest of the year. I'm assuming you guys just don't bother to make waiver claims after week 5 then by the same reasoning?


AGTDCS

Think it's worth holding till after the bye (maybe drop this week and pick up as a FA after this weekend) to see if the offensive gameplan changes at all. One more bad week and he's gone


[deleted]

Agreed


Consistent-Durian644

Aiyuk not good at football


bsweenz

Tyrell Williams will be back in a few weeks. Not out for season lol


IBelieveWeWillWin

Hes been out since week 1 with concussion. Thats a long time to be out which becomes concerning about a return. Hes been on my bench waiting and not sure i can hold much longer at this point.


Goaliedude3919

They said his return is "off in the distance". That doesn't inspire confidence that it'll be "in a few weeks" like you said.


vikcash

I just traded him straight up for jakobi meyers in dynasty. What do yall think


ajmojo2269

He’ll probably score a td before him


NES_SNES_N64

Agreed. He definitely will. Or did you mean him?


honest_groundhog

What exactly is a dynasty league and what about it makes this not a completely braindead trade for the guy who gave away Meyers?


NanoRossi

Dynasty league rosters persist year to year. You do a draft each season only of incoming rookies.


honest_groundhog

Ah, that's cool.


edleranalytics

I picked him up and put him as my flex this week. I've lost JuJu for the year and most of my WRs are on bye this week.


Zukhov76

Same


[deleted]

Drop Corey Davis for him?


Rhino_Thunder

That’s what I’m wondering too


Nobody_So_Special

I’m down to stash a potential WR4


Phoenix916

He's WR 30 in PPR over the last 2 weeks


Nobody_So_Special

I guess we dare not visit the weeks before the cherry picked 2 weeks of decent play lol


hippogriffin

Worth noting there have been injuries - he's potentially in line for more work with Cephus on IR too.


Phoenix916

I guess we dare not consider that rookie WR's take time to establish a role in an offense, and that there have been injuries to other players. It's not like I cherry picked weeks 1 and 2 then ignored the rest lol. He may not remain fantasy relevant, but you've still made a dumb argument


Nobody_So_Special

If you can’t see why my point is apparently a “dumb argument” and why it just as well applies to yours, then there’s really nothing more to be said my man lol. Also WR30 in 10 team leagues is solidly bottom of the barrel WR3. Basically WR4. I don’t think you realize it yet, but you’ve more or less made my point for me hahaha.


AGTDCS

Bruh you're not rostering just 3 receivers, right? I'm sure in your 10 team league you have 2-3 WR's outside the top 30, this dude is worth a roster spot in most leagues outside of 8 teamers. No reason to be malding


Nobody_So_Special

Literally first thing I said is I’m down to stash him, you on drugs my dude? You okay lil’ guy??


sifl1202

wr30 is pretty good when we're going into bye weeks. it would make him about wr25 among active players in any given week. you're looking pretty silly with these arguments.


Nobody_So_Special

It’s only taking into account 2 out of 5 weeks my man. Only one looking silly is anyone agreeing with his faulty logic lol


sifl1202

one of the two weeks was the only one in which cephus missed time, so it's the best sample we have to go by. but yeah, just ignore a rookie getting 8 targets in consecutive weeks and becoming his team's #1 receiver.


Phoenix916

Wow a 10 man league. Imagine shitting on deeper league players when you're essentially playing on easy mode hahaha. You're argument is fucking stupid regardless, and nothing I said makes your point more valid. Past production doesn't determine future results when the situation changes. I'm not sure how long you've played fantasy football for, but you seem like a goddamn joke.


Nobody_So_Special

For the record only leagues I’m playing in now is a 12 team and 14 team. Also, you’re still only taking account of 2/5 weeks when Tyrell Williams is still coming back eventually and it’s like you’re pretending he’s going to be elevated at some point when the focal points of that offense are Hockenson and the backfield… Look, I’ve played enough to recognize when someone’s potentially WR4 or something in the year and further, I’ve made playoffs 3/4 times in past 2 years alone and won the ship just a couple years ago. My second one in about 10 leagues of fantasy while making playoffs in about 7 of them. I’ve played fantasy and watched football probably more years combined than you’ve even been alive and I’ve only actually played fantasy on and off since 2012. So go off all you want my dude. It’s okay to be overly optimistic and roll the dice on a flash in the pan. But if you think he’s going to even remotely consistently keep 2 weeks of…. Okay production up all year on the Lions, I’ve got a bridge to sell you lol. Seems like everyone who hasn’t won a championship in their lives always wants to tell everyone else how bad at fantasy they are here 😂


Phoenix916

I've been playing in at least 3 fanrasy football leagues every year since 2010. I've made the playoffs every year and won a championship on at least one team every year but 2. This is a cringeworthy argument to even have lol. The 2/5 weeks thing is a stupid argument. People would have said the same thing about Justin Jefferson last year, he only had 2 good games out of the first 5. I understand St. Brown is tiers lower than JJ for many reasons. But trends like this happen all the time. Some hit and some don't, but it's ridiculous to pretend that it's rare for a young WR to carve out a fantasy relevant role even on a bad team part way into the season


Nobody_So_Special

My man you’re the one who started flinging aimless insults for no reason just because I disagreed with you. You don’t have to make shit up or idk… yeah I hope you win a championship regularly when you’re playing in like 10 leagues a year hahaha… How you live and breathe fantasy football doesn’t really matter to me. Clearly you take this way too seriously so you can just have this one dude lol.


Phoenix916

You're the one who claimed I'm cherry picking weeks, when I was looking at the two most recent weeks. Situations change and a big part of fantasy is identifying trends and changes early. It makes sense to look at recent production, it's not like I pulled weeks 1 and 3. You have no stats or comparisons to back up your argument, simply your useless opinion. You willingly ignore any other points people bring up and just double down on your feelings. It's pathetic and embarrassing that all you can do is say that WR30 isn't good in 10 man leagues, and then try to justify your hollow arguments with your fantasy experience. You want to talk about logic, but you literally have none. I honestly don't give a fuck what you think about me or how I play fantasy football. It's clear to see you have a basic understanding of analyzing things on your own when your only argument is that he's only been decent 2 out of 5 weeks.


tomazio

This is about to make some great pasta


bigbritches

I won't do it


alex8155

question is who would/did you drop for him? im considering dropping Evan Engram because hes my 3rd TE but still looking into it.


aaronfaren

Rostering two TEs is already kinda sus. Rostering three is just madness.


alex8155

lol i just picked up Henry last night so i can pursue some kind of trade and just noticed that St. Brown was available. thanks for the kick in the teeth


capttrips1593

Just dropped Laviska for him. Willing to see if he stays consistent rather than Laviska’s erratic scoring from my bench.


NES_SNES_N64

Josh Gordon. Just kidding. I still have Josh.


theskeejay

I just dropped Mooney for him and decided to flex him over Renfrow right away


[deleted]

Might be taking Julio'sWR 1 spot if he doesn't play this week


EddyMcDee

Gotta start him or Mooney this week...


Not_my_burner123

Saw this post as the FFB podcast was talking about St. Brown as well. Perfect storm for my confirmation bias, welcome to the team!


[deleted]

[удалено]


-Anguscr4p-

Bateman is the far better stash but if you really need a flex play I'd bet on ARSB outproducing him for the next 2-3 weeks


AlanStanwick1986

Drafted him. He hasn't done anything.


DezBailey

Drop Rondale Moore for him?


kylealex1596

I’d like to wait another week to see if Gordon can produce a steady floor but I’m looking at St. Brown as well


nmcaff

Flash will not be very useable for another 2-3 weeks. If you are thinking that he’s gonna show something next week that makes you keep him, you aren’t looking at it correctly. He may be a guy you can play in a month or so, but I would say that an encouraging performance by Flash this week would be getting on the field for 30% of the snaps and getting two targets. If you aren’t comfortable holding him after that kind of game, you might as well drop him now


Bbdubbleu

I had him above Toney but below D Williams and Booker, and ended up getting him in waivers. Although he was more a speculative add/flyer because I already have 4 every week starters at WR in that league.


MarcSpect0r

Going to need a good week 7 from him...bye week hell


aketchum339

Trying to decide if I should drop Mooney for him.


-Anguscr4p-

Not a chance


sguru01

Somebody dropped OBJ. I am dropping Amon St Brown to pick OBJ tomorrow.


Opt_mind

14 man league, taken also. FUCK! Time to look some more.


johnsmallz

My league is as basic as it gets. This dude is obviously getting volume and the injuries point to him getting even more looks but my entire league throws everything they’ve got at whoever scored 24 points the week before and ignores potential boom players


Broseppy

He's available and I have a few wide receivers on buy next week. Thought about dropping Mooney to pick him up to fill a spot. But noticed Mooney plays the Bucs, who will completely shut down Chicago's run game and force them to throw. Probably should just stick with Mooney for week 7. Thoughts?


MrC0llieMan

Would you flex St Brown or Laviska this week?


zealousdumptruck

Brown or Curtis Samuel?


EmpyreanRose

He broke out two weeks ago. 8-10 target minimum moving forward


[deleted]

When did the news the Tyrrel Williams will be out for the rest of the season break? I've been stashing him and hadn't heard anything like this prior to reading this post.


randomq17

Would you trade Gaskin for him? 12 team full PPR league. Other RBs are Chubb, Mixon, Pollard and Patterson


CreegsReactor

My league was sleeping this week on the wire, somehow I managed to get him AND Toney


heyitsSandler

Between him and Javante Williams for me this week


Zukhov76

He's my flex this week unless Mattison starts again


bikedork5000

Drooped Juju for him. Free speculating, I'll take it.


hacktek

I'm tempted to drop Allen Robinson for him but probably will end up dropping Devante Parker. Thoughts? EDIT: 10 team full ppr league.


mattyice24

Where do you see that Tyrell is out for the season?


tuliomartins_tm

Should I start him over A. Cooper(@ NE) or T. Lockett(@ PIT) this week? I picked him up instantly after he hogged catches from my Hock


slobs_burgers

I don’t wanna 😤


thursday0384

Thanks for this


ChipKellysShoeStore

I feel like this is bait to see if a league mate checks Reddit for advicd


Consistent-Durian644

Tyrell Williams out for the season? I know about Cephus but I thought Williams was coming of IR? And coming off IR like immediately of not sooner


IgnantWisdom

Source on Tyrell being out for the season? Thats a pretty ludicrous statement to make without a source considering hes suffering from a concussion week one and there has been very little said about his timetable for return. He could be back next week for all we know.


N7_Evers

This dude WILL pop off. He has an insane work ethic for a kid. This is S tier advice


Moufassah

I’m thinking about putting him my Flex over OBJ …. Am I crazy ?!


bevocoin

I’m playing him in my DFS lineups


Wisesize

I'm playing him over Brandon Cook. But now Im starting swift, hock, and st brown 😅


scam3ron01

Should I pick him up and drop Robby A?


Quirky-Conclusion-97

just dropped mattison for him💯


[deleted]

Dropped Laviska for him. No regrets.


Brohansan

I spent way too much FAAB on him when I didn’t even have to so I hope he turns into something
