My issue is people are hoarding em too, I have Rivers and Ryan and our scoring is kinda QB retarded as they get .5 per completion plus 6 a td etc. So QB is pretty much the highest point ceiling every week. Looking at the waiver wire and you have dudes like Tannehill, Alex Smith, Wentz, Flacco...

I mean, I guess they're serviceable. I'd be riding Rivers hot every week if it weren't for the fucking injuries on that team. Ryan has the hottest offense in the league atm but their schedule looks brutal to me.

Not sure what to do.

with the amount of injuries to WR and RB so far this year, I would personally only roster a 2nd QB to fill an immediate bye week need if you had a stud QB already. Early in the year with so many committee RB situations I think having a share in some of those could prove to be valuable down the stretch as more and more guys get hurt or drop off. For WR's its less of an option to hoard since most teams are spreading the ball around pretty well these days, but early on in the year I like to swap out that QB spot for an extra running back option and hope for a home run (like what Langford, D-Will, David Johnson etc) were last year.

Rivers is surprisingly injury-proof in numbers, despite having massive injuries in the last few years on that offense hes always in the top 10ish on QB's and you can get the guy so late in drafts. He finds a way to get it done but it sneaks up on everyone.

I have no problem with Cincy D versus the dolphins, I think the Phins offense is in a rough spot and Landry looks to be beat up pretty good. Cincy can grind up some serious clock with Hill / Gio. Dolphins would be one of the teams I would be targeting for streaming opponents against (along with the Rams and Cleveland)

Maybe I should try to unload Ryan in a trade, I'd be pretty angry if it bites me in the ass though!

Wouldn't be shocked if Atlanta lights up Carolina at home actually.

Both my big money leagues the guy who is starting Brees also has Stafford and wants a kings ransom.

Ride or die I guess with T Mobile!

I'd go with Luck, but I'm extremely biased.

Trying to decide if I keep McKinnon in for the Monday night game and maybe switch him out Sunday night for Charles depending on if he sounds like he'll get a good chunk of snaps.
Or go with Artis-Payne in an early game?

Rolling with McKinnon this week, I think he's eventually going to put up a lot of fantasy points when they can force teams to respect the pass -- which they seem to be doing more of now.

You think it will happen against the Giants, though? They have a pretty formidable defense, don't they? Not really happy with any of my options for RB2 this week.

Im forced into it, he was my AP handcuff and I lost Keenan Allen before so I have to play anyone with a pulse at this point. Cant believe Im somehow 3-0 in this league

Yeah, I'm 2-1 with both Peterson and Charles. Blount/Luck/Shepard/Diggs/Cooks/Vikings D have been holding me up, though. I thought my WRs were my weak point after the draft, but they've mostly panned out. If Charles comes back strong I'll feel pretty good about this team despite the Peterson injury.

Shep will have trouble this week, as will Diggs. I think at least.

Cooks has been a stud.

I'm sitting Shepard and rolling the dice that Pryor will have another big week.

Shit forgot I have Giovani Bernard sitting in my flex atm for tonights game.

Thinking I'm starting Charles Sims/Jordan Howard at RB this week so for flex options I have

Gio vs Mia
Spencer Ware @ pit
Devonta Freeman vs Car
Will Fuller vs Ten

Not sure whats up with Ware atm, Fuller has a nice matchup this week. Feel like Devonta has a pretty decent floor for points even against a stout D?

Sims against Denver? No dawg.

I would put Fuller in the flex.

J Hill just put up 97 yards and 2 TD's against Denver, it's a home game, and Sims is definitely going to be getting the workload plus catches outta the backfield in ppr. Don't think I can sit him man.
