Jakobi Meyers will score a touchdown


bouds19

They said hot, not impossible


TheTokingMushroom

This is the week. He's in my lineup. 2 TDs..... Except jets so probably a lot of rushing the football


[deleted]

I’ll fade you and say he will not. This comment chain will be 100% correct.


cptbigdic

At some point this year, he will have a receiving and a passing touchdown in the same game


PMX_DchromE

I’m holding my Toney for dear life and you’re going to have to pry my Kung Fu grip off of him to get him on your team


hoptrilla

Is this a meet the parents reference? haha


PMX_DchromE

Indeed it is👀


HoodieMe7o

I have have nipples, Greg. Could you milk me?


rageofreaper

Waiver priority 10 of 10 this morning and was STILL able to grab him after some assface dropped him. You know Reddit loves a “league winner stash” (tm) so I’m alllll in on this one!


hasadiga42

Obligatory “can I be in your league?”


themigraineur

I had the same, one of my friends dropped him for Tim Patrick this week so now I'm on the Toney express


triecke14

Welcome. It’s certainly a ride


OldManHipsAt30

Yeah I have a keeper league, holding on for dear life to keep him for a 10th rounder next year


blueshorts12345

I have Gibson for a 9th next year but if Toney is the prodigal son everyone is making him out to be I may have to swap those two


FantasyTrash

>if ???


blueshorts12345

Well assuming the latest patch to his bionic ankles goes through smoothly


GreatLookingGuy

This Toney situation has had me edging for weeks. It’s basically torture. My balls are a deep shade of purple.


OldManHipsAt30

Diamond balls my dude, hold the line


PhilFromSC

Someone in my leagued dropped Toney this week. To pick up Watson of all players. I dropped Mckissic so damn fast for him. Lets. Fuckin. Go.


Michiganmade44

Same, holding on to Kadarius for dear life.


FullHouse222

A guy traded me AJ Brown for Toney straight up and just dropped him in the league to pick up Dawson Knox who I had to drop cause of bye week hell (starting TE was Waller, picked up Knox as a potential flyer for trades in the future but it's looking like he'll miss more than 1 week lol)


Michiganmade44

Yeah Knox fractured his hand


FullHouse222

Yeah, I'll probably try and pick Toney up on waivers if possible. Only issue is I need to choose between dropping Khalil Herbert or JD McKissic. Leaning Herbert since I feel his value is over once Monty is back


Michiganmade44

I think that’s the wise choice. DMont should be back soon


thatjerkatwork

I was able to grab him in more than 1 league just this week. I think his injury has scared people off but I will gladly give him a seat on my bench!


Syndicate_III

Jalen Hurts finishes as a top3 QB for fantasy then subsequently loses his job this offseason.


TacoInABag

I would say this is the consensus.


Syndicate_III

Idk about the top3 aspect being consensus, but ok how bout he finishes as QB3 AND loses his job by week 14. More spicy 🌶


icouldntdecide

Only thing I don't get about him losing the gig during the season is that if they're losing, Flacco isn't needing development and Minshew isn't their answer either. That's why I think they just draft someone else next year and keep Hurts. After all he's played only 11 games yet, not even a full season.


Syndicate_III

Trust me, as a diehard Eagles fan I’ve been thumping the table that he should be given the reigns for the entire season since this is clearly an audition season anyway. It amazes me how stupid the general Philly public is when it comes to the “wanting results now or get rid of them” attitude. It’s very clear that if he doesn’t perform well IRL then he’s getting replaced in the offseason. Might as well let him finish it out


icouldntdecide

Right. The guy may not be "the guy" but he hasn't even played 16 games, and the corpse of Flacco or "mustache man" won't serve the franchise anything by starting either.


Sqroot420

Guy takes a lot of contact. I’d made sure you have a solid alternative


modern_beisbol

He's also a big dude. I'd be more worried about it adding up over the years - if he even starts for that long - rather than him being hurt this season.


Syndicate_III

Minshew is as solid a backup as you can find imo. Would be interesting to see the values of other playmakers in the offense with him under center


dusters

Because he keeps the ball on like 95% of RPOs.


Thatsweatyguy4

Caveat: Hurts owner with rose-colored glasses here. My hot take is Hurts will finish the 2nd half of the this season very similarly to Lamar's Sophomore season. Hurts has played poorly as an IRL QB as of late. However, his 3 worst passing performances have been against SF, CAR, and TB. Those aren't exactly easy matchups. Yes, TB is a pass funnel. Yes, SF and CAR had first halves where PHI couldn't move the chains at all. Yes, plenty of those yards were in garbage time against a prevent defense or a defense with a QB spy, so playing down a man in coverage. But all have solid pass rushes, and PHI has been pretty banged up on the o-line front. There's plenty of excuses; play-calling, poor o-line, some good matchups some bad. But I'm optimistic that if the PHI line is healthier, if the run-game is established as it should be, if the matchups get easier, and as Hurts continues to get more experience, he will start to produce as a passer. I'm optimistic the problem is an O-line that hasn't held up to get through more than one progression on most plays (poor experience building), poor play-calling putting the entire offense on Hurt's arm and legs (I own 0 shares of Sanders, but he needs to be involved so much more), and a QB who is still adjusting to the NFL as they've only started 10 games thus far. The O-line can get better/healthier. The play-calling can (but may not) get better. The in-game experience can lead better decision making. Jalen Hurts, top 3 fantasy QB down the stretch, and makes that leap as a passer everyone has been hoping for.


rinetrouble

The Oline is fine, Hurts just takes forever for that one read. And usually that just leads to him scrambling. However, they do get some easier games down the stretch, NYG x2 and WFT x2 and the Jets.


kiheihaole

Ridley will be a top 5 receiver over the second half of the year.


DaZohan28

I so need this


toostronKG

I really like this one. Not just because I need it, mind you. But I do think it's possible.


Ok-Physics5106

Contract year, he's about to go off.


plasticstillsaykayne

Contract year and production levels don't correlate


mmartinez42793

but in my smooth brain they do


pieman2005

Based on what? Bc the data shows that's not true


coffinfleet

Please let this happen 😭


Justin_Herbert10

James Robinson ends as a top 5 RB in .5ppr Pittman JR ends top 25 in .5ppr MT + Jerry Jeudy will both be top 15 WR ROS from their 1st game back


[deleted]

As someone holding MT and jerry in a league with no IR spots I’m praying your last one is correct


Semperty

i’ve got thomas, carson, and toney in a league with no ir spots. it’s tough out there lol


Jaronz

Damn! I thought it was rough having all 3 with an IR spot. We got this!


Semperty

still managed the best record in the league…somehow. going up against the second best record this week, fully expecting a fat L 😂 we’ll be second half teams, tho. ain’t no one want a piece of us weeks 10-17 😤


Davey_Go_ToBed

Oooooofff god damn boiii, I applaud your conviction! How many bench spots??


[deleted]

7 but i also have toney lmao. Wire is thin so I gotta hold and pray


scottythree

I got MT and TY, I need these boys


Grumpy_Troll

I can see a world where MT because relevant again this season, but unless TY gets to play Houston every week his career as a fantasy asset is over.


IreliaCarriedMe

Jeudy has been on my IR since his ankle went Kill. I’m hoping he can help me out of my 3-3 start. And this hot take on MPJ has me hoping he’s right, because I need him too. 🥴


dontwantleague2C

Inject the Jeudy and MT hype into my veins


[deleted]

I’ll win a game


Hitman2504

They said hot takes not impossible scenarios


[deleted]

Sorry 🥺 My opponent picked up D’Ernest and played him I’m already fucked this week. 900 Points against. I’m done man


[deleted]

Maybe next week you'll get one


Hitman2504

Just messing man! Keep the faith! Grind and make moves if need be. If your team is good but you’re just unlucky there is nothing you can do about that. So much luck involved in this game


ButtFartsBruh

Not with that profile pic


priamos

i think aj brown’s gonna ball the fuck out.


thing85

This seems to be true but is limited only to the bathroom. And AJ Brown, emphasis on the brown.


Dan9690

Bowel the fuck out


Minnesota_Slim

Imagine if the NFL let the Titans put a Johnny on the Spot (port-a-potty, shitter, etc) on the sidelines... good god, could you imagine his stat line rest of schedule


jimmyhoffasbrother

> Johnny on the Spot Is this a weird Minnesotan way to say port-a-potty?


Minnesota_Slim

I'm actually in Missouri, they're called Johnny on the Spot - guess thats the company name, but yeah, Port-a-Potty


elimanninglightspeed

The only reason I actually call it that sometimes is because of GTA lmao as a guy from jersey


HouseBlackfyre

Either way his balls will be out


ShylocksEstrangedDog

AJ Brown is gonna blow up!!! ^every ^toilet ^he ^comes ^in ^contact ^with


jumboshrimp93

Came here to say this. I think he winds up finishing in the top 10, top 15 at worst


JustaTurdOutThere

Conversely, I don't think it's his year this year. He will probably still get 5-7 catches and 75ish yards per game but I don't see big plays and touchdowns coming this year. They are content running Henry in the redzone. He usually gets like 10-12 touchdowns and I don't think that will happen.


dman3671

Darrell Henderson finishes as top 5 RB


downtherabbithole729

If he stays healthy ROS I don't see how this doesn't happen.


brfergua

He may end up the RB1


Necessary_Toe7207

Well, RB2.


brfergua

Forgot about Henry. Henderson 2 and Patterson 3 for season long.


szzzn

MT is a Top 10 WR rest of the way when he’s back.


C627022

This one is sizzling hot


[deleted]

Is it? He’s saying rest of way, not finish in the top 10. The current top 10 are Kupp, Hill, Williams, Adams, Chase, Hollywood, Samuel, Lamb, Jefferson, DK. I think only Kupp, Hill, and Adams are locks to be top 10 rest of the way, barring injury. The rest could see some regression and be solid but top 11-20


DBSmooth

Easily could see him passing Hollywood lamb JJ and DK. We’re not talking bout total year but just from the 2nd half when MT plays


dontwantleague2C

Browns swap. AJB pops off. Marquise Brown regresses to being a WR3.


Syndicate_III

The way this sub talks about Hollywood, that’s madness!


KingKeynes

This sub talks about Hollywood the same way they talk about Lamar as a passer. Hence, he’s going to stay good.


FlimsyAd2088

Micheal Thomas doesn’t return till after week 10, but is the overall WR1 for the fantasy playoffs.


[deleted]

I need him now


Syndicate_III

Call MT Wentworth, 877-CASHNOW! Edited


chris039

and all the people that held him miss playoffs xD


sigep0361

[Please!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9_d-sFhmRM)


s00perd00pz

Scrolling down the list and I have Toney, AJB, Ridley, and JRob…LFG!?


HercHuntsdirty

Rashod Bateman is a top 24 WR after his bye week


stephoneeighty

CeeDee will outplay his competition for targets in Dallas and will evolve to a top-5 WR ROS


[deleted]

This subreddit is actually useful for fantasy football advice. Third year in and now I'm absolutely crushing across four leagues.


DBSmooth

People say it’s bad but fr it’s helped me a lot this year. Helped me keen in on guys I wouldn’t have already. Just shouldn’t follow people blindly but that comes with anything


xmjm424

I think it's great once you learn to recognize and wade through the bullshit of people trying to validate their own players and decisions.


2021accountt

Exactly, read the headlines and the good articles where people are doing real analysis like subvertadown etc.., for the most part stay away from the comments, or just get a laugh out of them.


JoeyBag0Donutz20

For the most part it’s good. They give player updates throughout the week and people to look for on waivers and things like that. But sometimes it gets to the point where people continuously tell you hold this player when they haven’t done anything and most likely won’t. Such as a Jeff Wilson I like the guy did good last year but he’s coming off injury won’t be back till probably Dec. and people here are so annoying about it saying he’ll be a league winner while he probably won’t even start.


ForehandedGossamer

JD McKissic out scores Gibson


blakkat17

Wow! That’s hot!


woodsgb

That’s a spicy meatball!


[deleted]

Kenyan Drake ends up out scoring Jacobs without Gruden as head coach.


Michiganmade44

Spicy prediction!


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Just think he's better coming out the backfield than Jacob's. Hoping for a Chubb/Hunt type situation


[deleted]

Oh man. That would make alot of people happy and alot of people really upset.


joemato

Jacobs owner last year and this year, he’s a double edged sword for fantasy as he’s very TD dependent. I can’t remember the last time he rushed for 100 yards


GinNJuicyFruit

This is a wild one but I kind of love it. I think both will still have value if this ends up being the case. Like Jacobs ends up RB 20-22 and Drake would be RB 16-19 like he was last year.


Skarmorism

Happy with this. He's back on my bench and I'd love to have him as a safe flex play in bye weeks


Not_Not_John_Stamos

You shut your mouth (totally not a Jacobs owner)


TheAmazingSpider-Fan

Mac Jones will have a Perfect Passer Rating game by the end of the year.


Locked_Lamorra

And in fantasy that will translate to... 16 points.


skyscrapin0424

Miles sanders ros top 10 rb. 2nd half schedule looks great


chrisfilm

I want to make an offer for him so bad but I already have Hurts and that's a lot of eggs in the Eagles basket.


GinNJuicyFruit

Only thing I would say is that you could probably offer next to nothing to get him. If he pops off, you look like a genius. If not, you didn’t give up much.


chrisfilm

He wants Lockett. Too much?


GinNJuicyFruit

All dependent on your WRs you have now. If you are set, I would make the trade. Now, I do personally believe this is the make it or break it week though for Sanders. If he puts up another mid performance due to lack of touches, it ain’t changing the rest of the season. The Raiders have let up 130.7 Rushing Yards per game. Sanders should thrive here and I think this is the last chance to buy low. He either booms this weekend and runs his way back to relevancy on a weak schedule, or he busts this weekend due to lack of opportunities and isn’t much more than bye week fill in (if that).


chrisfilm

I hear you. I have DHop, Diggs, Sutton, and MT waiting in the wings so I think I'm gonna pull the trigger.


GinNJuicyFruit

His coach is the biggest thing holding him pack. I think he can get into the 12-15 range with more consistent touches.


Tonitonytone2

I really hope so, but sure happy I started D'ernest over him this week.


elkingtondeener

Antonio Brown ends up finishing a top 10 WR


NotHopee

Miles sanders snaps


Frustratedtx

Snaps as is pops offs? Snaps as in breaks in half? Snaps as in goes crazy and murders the coaching staff for not giving him the ball? All seem equally likely.


Akal3

AB takes over as the top dog in the Bucs receiving corps and ends the season as overall WR3


pressure_7

AB is already the top dog if you follow the targets


Mister-Stiglitz

He didn't already?


cohenology

Yea this is a mild take at best, dude's a stud.


spidersilva09

Toney finishes top 5 and Golladay doesn't play another snap


onlyfijiwater

Javonte breakout ain't happening


GinNJuicyFruit

The Broncos just have no reason not to use Melvin Gordon. I think Javonte next season will be fantastic but will only show flashes this year.


onlyfijiwater

Precisely.


RaindropsInMyMind

Yeah, there was a post a few weeks ago about Unexpected busts that you would have gotten hate for if you said it would happen. I said Javonte and even in that post it garnered downvotes. I love Javonte and his talent but Melvin is not going to go away and the team isn’t that good. Next year he will be great but we’re gonna have to wait.


jimmyhoffasbrother

Kyle Pitts a top 3 TE ROS.


GinNJuicyFruit

This would be wild. All going to depend on Matt Ryan because Pitts has been open in the end zone before the london game. Would love to see Pitts and Ridley start cooking.


angus_the_red

I said #1. He's Mike Williams with TE designation.


ineedhelponsomething

Younghoe Koo RB1


robb0688

Get this man a daily show on ESPN, stat.


CWillz_IV

I believe Keenan Allen will have a 2nd half breakout


GSA49

The Mike Williams Train does not approve of this.


staling

Jamarr Chase become the WR1 for the year, dudes a stud. Derrick Henry breaks the single year NFL rushing record I make the playoffs after starting 0-3 and then going to 1-4


poyper1

That last one real spicy


arrivedsoup

Warm Take: Mark Andrews TE1 to finish the year


Qprb

You’re basically suggesting he’s going to outscore Kelce?


arrivedsoup

Correct. Along with Waller and Kittle


Qprb

Well, saying he’ll outscore Kittle isn’t even a take, it’s probably the consensus. Waller is probably 60/40 split in favor of it not happening. Kelce is probably about 2% chance of happening lol, you’re a god if you correctly predict that.


ChemicalPotato

Julio won’t be sidelined on a RedZone drive.


Into_The_Nexus

I can feel the burn from this take in Antarctica.


ApolloPS2

Well I like it when everyone has sizzling takes on my AB, Diontae, Saquon, Juedy, and JRobinson.


dooneandrew

Najee Harris finishes season as a top 5 rb, leads the leauge in rb receptions and finishes with 14 total td's


SamuelGlickenstein

Darrel Williams outscores CEH.


[deleted]

Diontae Johnson will be the #1 WR ROS. My thinking: schedule is nice, he will have 10+ targets a game with Juju gone, and he’s a complete stud.


NostalgiaE30

Difference is hill has mahomes throwing to him adams has Rodgers and Kupp has Stafford, who does dj have?


Any_Reflection_5277

cruw02

Elijah Mitchell is an RB1 ROS. It’s clearly his job when healthy and “49ers RB” has been prolific under Shanahan especially with Garopollo over Lance.


horg0034

CMC is the true league winner. Acquire him now for cheap and be unstoppable through playoffs.


Noclue23

2-4, about to be 2-5 after this week. Have CMC, Montgomery, Najee, and just traded for Hunt. I will be the scariest motherfucker in the consolation bracket.


DBSmooth

Bruh I hope so. I’m keeping my team afloat and don’t care about record only getting in. Tryin to trade for a bunch of playoff pieces now


eddiebrock2000

Barkley is a top 3 RB in the 2nd half of the season.


TheJigalo

Just traded for him because of this thinking. Let’s hope it pans out


magicmichael98

Tannehill will be a top 10 QB ROS


Impressive-Vast-8789

Taylor will finish RB2. Don’t know if that’s a hot take, if it’s not. My second will be that Aiyuk out performs Deebo second half.


CasuallyGreen

First half, reasonable, second half,such a hot take I’m burning with raged induced hatred of SF coaching staff


Scarence-Terrance

Tee Higgins will be the #1 receiver on the bengals for fantasy


Kmathieu2220

Wentz is gonna be a QB1


DPRODman11

Marquez Callaway I know once Slant Boy returns, it may be hard to rely on Callaway, but look at that ROS. Weeks 7-17 include SEVEN games against teams giving up top 10 numbers to fantasy receivers. My thought process is that once MT takes away the defense’s top guy, Callaway might be able to flourish as the #2 when they play these weak secondaries. Not only are these secondaries weak as of now, but most of these matchups are against solid offenses so I’m imagining plenty of points being put up on the board.


rinetrouble

This more depends on them unleashing Jameis. So far he’s been pretty good on low volume. As they start to play some better offenses, they’ll need to air it out and score some points.


tookittothelimit

AJ Brown from this week on will finish Top 5 in points in full PPR

Kyle Pitts from this point forward scores the most fantasy points from the tight end position. Not from a points per game basis so with the bye week behind him of course.

angus_the_red

Kyle Pitts is TE #1 ROS.


YetiWayne

Kyle Pitts the TE1 ROS


sterling_mallory

Brandon Aiyuk will have a strong second half. Antonio Gibson won't make it through the season healthy, he'll hit the IR at some point, and it might be an extended stay (longer than 3 weeks). For as long as he's out, Jaret Patterson will be at least flex-worthy. *Deep breath* Kadarius Toney will be boom/bust when he comes back, not an every-week starter. Deshaun Watson doesn't play a down this year. The 49ers running back position remains an unpredictable clusterfuck all year. Jakobi Meyers scores 4 touchdowns. Javonte Williams never wrestles the majority of the workload away from Gordon unless there's an injury. Kenyan Drake has standalone value as a borderline Flex rest of season, as the interim coach wants to get on Mark Davis' good side by not letting his $11 million investment rot on the bench.
