James White @NO or Buck Allen @CLE for my RB2 spot? Danny Woodhead's injury screwed me.

 

I'd go Allen. As a New England fan I've learned to stay away from their offensive players other than like Brady and Gronk. There is just no telling week to week who is going to play the most snaps.

 

My only hesitation is that the Saints defense is gonna focus on Cooks so much that it might open up for White to have a big game idk.

 

it depends who your QBs are, but I typically do not. Especially if you have an elite guy like Rodgers/Brady

 

I've got Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston at the moment. I feel like there's enough decent enough QBs I could pickup in a pinch/to cover a bye week if need be.

 

I have 3 on my bench right now lol. I had Cousins/Dalton, and just picked up Bradford yesterday because neither Cousins or Dalton showed me anything to want to start them this week. I'm gonna drop 1 of them next week after I see how they do.

 

Cousins is going to turn it around I think.

 

I think so too. Just not sure it'll be this week against his old OC and a tough Rams defense.

 

Standard scoring, need 2RB, 2WR, flex:

Demarco Murray
Tarik Cohen
Buck Allen
Kerwynn Williams

Alshon Jeffery
TY Hilton
Jamison Crowder
Randall Cobb
Jordan Matthews

 

RB: Murray, Cohen
WR: Jeffrey, Cobb
Flex: Williams

 

Need a WR and Flex .5 ppr

J. Matthews
Hilton
C. Davis
Charles
T. Smith
Riddick (assuming my trade goes through)

 

I'd go Corey Davis and Riddick

 

Pretty much what I was thinking, just gonna switch out Crowder for Williams

 

I could see that happening. I could also see Hogan, Gillislee, Amendola, Gronk, Lewis, or hell even Dorsett having a big game because they are all over Cooks. There really is just no telling what they are going to do in New England.

 

I rarely ever have 2 QBs on my roster, unless you have two really good ones, and keep the second for trade bait. Currently, in both my leagues, I only have 1 QB.

 

A guy in my league only had 3 RBs on his roster, one of which was Woodhead. I threw him a garbage offer of Jordan Matthews, Cooper Kupp and Matt Forte for Odell Beckham just to get the discussion started.

He accepted. Wuuuut

 

Maybe because of this?

Odell Beckham Update: Giants star says recovery is 6-8 weeks

 

Where would he be at now, week 3 or 4? I can handle it. All 3 guys I'm trading are on my bench. Elliott/Hyde/Ingram at RB, waiver claim in for Kamara. Nelson/Allen/Hogan/Coleman at WR

 

I think he's around week 4. But a nagging ankle injury for a guy who is very explosive may not bode very well. Still definitely worth it to do the deal for you, but I'm just saying, it's possible the guy who accepted the trade was/is worried about ODB's long-term health this year.

 

I was totally surprised by it. I thought he'd counter and I'd end up with Terrelle Pryor. I might still flip OBJ down the line if Elliott has to serve his suspension. I'm pumped

 

I can't make my mind up.
Cousins or Bradford this week?

Cousins looked terrible last week and is facing his old coach/tough defense.
Bradford looked great last week against a bad defense and plays a better D this week.

 

McCaffrey or Buck Allen ? It's PPR. I'm just not sure lol.

 

I'd go McCaffrey just because you know the role he has.

Buck ran a ton last week when the Ravens were up. Not 100% sure how much he'll be used. Then again, they are playing the Browns.

 

I think McCaffrey might be the way to go. Like you said he has a gaurnteed role on what they would be doing with him.

 

Eh, I'd go Cousins
