Kicking it off...
Who to start week 1, in 0.5 ppr league
Josh Gordon vs Pittsburgh
Marquise Goodwin vs Minnesota
Obviously like Gordon overall more, but dno if he’s in the full swing of things yet... but Goodwin up against better defense.
My opponent is starting Jimmy G so i see Goodwin was a potential way to mitigate his scoring
I’d like to see Gordon’s snap count for the first couple of games before throwing him in the starting lineup. Goodwin is the safer play, especially since you’re facing Jimmy G.
Here’s mine:
Should I start Robert Woods at Oakland or Marvin Jones vs. Jets?
i dont think those 2 are in the same tier... see no reason not to start jones. Just the better player.
I’ll pose another one. Adrian Peterson vs Arizona or Chris Carson vs Denver (still half ppr). I’m leaning Carson of course.
Yeah. Go with the fresh legs. AP will probably get 15 or less carries per game with Chris Thompson getting just as many. Plus AP is useless in receptions/yards out of the backfield.
id go with gordon, who they gonna play over him callaway? lol come on. division game too.
ive invested a lot of capital in rashaad penny. hoping carson sucks but id choose carson this week over AP.
need one in the flex. Dion Lews/Alf Morris or Mike Williams. ppr
PPR...I'd probably go Lewis. Would like to see some games with Williams to see what his usage is. Gates will steal a few of his TDs.
Marshon or James Conner?
wait and see?
also gotta pick one from Tarik, Montgomery, and Coleman.
Agree with Lewis over Morris/Williams in ppr. Want to see how morris/breida distribute touches before leaning there, and Williams is a complete unknown in an offense feeding Allen and Gordon primarily with Gates siphoning touchdowns.
Marshawn vs Conner is tough. Raiders going up against tough rams D on the road. Could be a game they abandon the run if rams pull ahead. Conner is getting every down duties and is up against Cleveland. Go Conner.
Lastly, tevin Coleman is the easy pick.
Gracias.
(barring miracle of unheard of proportions), lost this week because i got a combined 0 points from my starting WR's... doug baldwin and marquise goodwin both left their respective games with injury. had josh gordon on my bench and he did catch a TD. also started chris carson over adrian peterson, which didnt go well. and then njoku faceplanted with a 3pt performance, and got only 3 points from boswell
blegh
Not bad for a mostly auto-drafted team (Melvin Gordon was my keeper, FA pickups in red):
QB: Jared Goff
RB1: Melvin Gordon
RB2: David Johnson
WR1: Stefon Diggs
WR2: Demaryius Thomas
TE: Delanie Walker
Flex: Chris Thompson
IDP: Adoree' Jackson
D/ST: Jacksonville Jaguars
K: Harrison Butker
BN: Mark Ingram (SSPD)
BN: Will Fuller
BN: Tyler Eifert
BN: Dak Prescott (yikes)
BN: Ryan Griffin
IR: Carson Wentz
just got offered Fournette and Brandin Cooks for Alvin Kamara. i love kamara, especially after that week 1, but i dont think i can turn that down... especially on a team with doug baldwin/marquise goodwin/alshon jeffery all hurt
even if fournette misses a game, that's just too much value to pass up. the gap between kamara/fournette wont be as big as week 1, and cook is a legit WR2 with upside.
For me it would depend on what the rest of my team looked like. I would worry about Fournette missing multiple games over the course of the season.
it's a half ppr league
my WR's right now: Josh Gordon, Doug Baldwin (inj), Marquise Goodwin (inj), Alshon Jeffery (inj), Ryan Grant (just picked him up, will be tossed as part of the trade)
my RB's right now: Alvin Kamara, Dalvin Cook, Adrian Peterson, Chris Carson, Aaron Jones (sus)
Yeah...I would make that trade as well. I liked the looks that Cooks got the other night. He sure looks to be their #1 and he would have had great numbers if not for a couple of pass interferences.
he still wound up with 5/87 and was targeted 8 times (and those target figures dont include PI calls). i was encouraged the other night as well, which is partially which i'm enthusiastic about the trade.
we discussed it via text yesterday, i just sent the actual proposal on the site, just waitin for him to accept
damn amateur. now he's asking me to "throw in" chris carson on top of it too. i dont have the same confidence, but he said he'd throw in latavius murray (would be my dalvin cook handcuff). i gotta mull it over.
so id be getting fournette/brandin cooks/latavius murray for kamara/carson. telling him i'd do with with aaron jones, not with carson.

that's some weak ass . I would say no thanks and let him sit awhile and watch Kamara go ape for another week while Fournette plays limited snaps.
although that doesn't really address your WR problem for the week.
i formally offered kamara/jones/grant for fournette/cooks/latavius, but told him ima withdraw if if anything negative comes up on fournette, so he has some time pressure. im drawing a line in the sand at carson
Look at picking up phillip dorsett if he's on the wire

i know he had a good week, but not a fan. hogan wont be that quiet again and they fill similar roles. and once edelman returns in a couple of weeks he's going to soak targets. if this trade goes through i can be content starting cooks on a weekly basis. at that point i just need to wait for baldwin/jeffery/goodwin to get on the field and produce so i can trade up.
yuck. trade fell through.
hey chunticakes i have fournette and cooks, give me kamara
Throw in Demarco and you got yourself a deal.hey chunticakes i have fournette and cooks, give me kamara
