Gordon is a gamble and it doesn't sound like you have the chips available to make a move. At least not yet. It wouldn't be wise to drop either of those two for Gordon since we don't know the impact Gordon will have.
John Brown I'm guessing? If so.. probably Brown.
Sterling probably would get more catches.. but Callaway is filling in as Josh's role as deep threat. I'd pick up Calloway personally
I don't know what owner of Henry would ever accept that thrade.
Edelman I would hold onto assuming he hasn't lost a step. We don't know how Gordon will work out. Think his hamstring is still hurting him at the moment. I don't see him playing a bunch of snaps until next week.
If you want to take the risk on dropping someone for Gordon. I would possibly do it but wouldn't drop Hogan at the moment. It is a very high risk but high reward situation. Assuming they don't cut him and he works hard.
I dropped New England's DEF for Cleveland's. If they couldn't handle Blake Bortles then fuck em
I think they play the Bills and the Dolphins in the fantasy playoffs, so keep an eye on them as a stash later on.
A lot of spicy matchups this week
I'm guessing it'll be one of these guys
Chris Thompson @ GB
Brees/Kamara/Thomas @ ATL
Fitzmagic/Djax/Evans/Godwin @ PIT
Big Ben/AB/JuJu @TB
Jax Def + Fournette @ TEN
PHI def @ IND
Min Def @ BUF
Dalvin Cook + Latavius Murray @ BUF
Watson/Miller/DHop/Fuller @NYG
Gurley @ LAC
Yikes, that might actually be worse than my RB corps.
Williams & Collins, Clement scored big last week because Ajayi was out of the game for awhile. Morris is a non-factor.
Who should I start, Philip Rivers vs the Rams or Carson Wentz vs the Colts? Rivers feels safer and I'm nervous Wentz takes a while to get up to speed. Plus the eagles haven't really looked great yet.
Vikings
Would anyone start Godwin over Marvin Jones Jr this week?
Vikings. There is a strong possibility the Bills will not score.
Go with Rivers. You have the privilege to see if Wentz is back to form before starting him- a lot of his value came on plays with mobility (avoiding sacks, rollouts, scrambles) which isn't always there when you are less than a year out from ACL surgery
If you have the Vikings D, you probably spent a premium (ie not last 2 round) pick on them, and you shouldnt be playing matchups with them
I probably wouldn't. Fitzmagic/Fitztragic Cycle can start/end at any moment. If it were D-Jax.. I probably would.
I'm getting the trade itch, I'm usually a mover and shaker.
Here's my squad (PPR)
QB: Rivers, Goff
RB: Kamara, CMC, Chris Thompson, Morris
WR: Mike Evans, Chris Hogan, Josh Gordon, Alshon Jeffery, Marquise Goodwin, Geronimo Allison
TE: Dissly, Njoku
Browns Defense, Matt Bryant
I should just stand pat right? I lost last week and was a bit worried that I needed a stud TE or WR.

Devonta Freeman for Lev Bell and Jordan Reed..
I am set at RB with Kamara and Kareem atm
Am I dumb

How the hell did you end up with Kamara, Hunt and Freeman.
You are only going to have Bell for week 12 on (he's missing 10 games plus the bye week), which for your league may mean he only gets 2 regular season games. Meanwhile, you will have Freeman probably miss another 2 games and come back right into his normal role of 15+ carries a game. And Jordan Reed is an elite TE when he's healthy, but you have to factor in that it's not a "if he stays healthy" its a "when does he get hurt" with him
If you are set at RB it is a huge gamble do it. We don't know if Bell will be back or even when he will be back. Reed seems to get hurt every year.
Bell is officially off the team roster. His relationship is tarnished with the staff, so when/if he comes back and they are making a playoff push, he probably won't be getting a huge haul. Hell i wouldn't want to be in that locker room...
Reed, like Bigkrev mentioned does have injury problem, but i mean what TE's do you have and are there any other good options on WW?
--If there are options, i would def do the trade, especially when you are loaded nicely at RB
I think they're legit good. They've been pretty great at getting pressure and haven't melted down otherwise, so I'll take that
The worry is that they play him on a few more snaps than normal this week to see what they have, so he produces more out the gate then he will later.
I'm still not risking it. He could be a healthy scratch or something.
I'm in the mindset of wait and see with Gordon. If you're projected to lose and need upside, I'll start him.
They are playing the Lions. If you really need someone and he is the only guy who got. It really is a Boom or Bust situation.
Crowell plays tonight but look out for Ajayi, if he is out, start Clement. Morris is an okay option.
If you have massive injury issues this week and are projected to loose by 20+ points, it's worth a die roll- he has incredible upside, but he is equally likely to get 0 catches for 0 yards
Tough with Crowell going tonight. Keep an eye out for Ajayi's status today and make the call. Sproles is already out and Eagles moved up an RB from the practice squad which I'm assuming is insurance for Ajayi. Clement could possibly still put up good numbers even if Ajayi does play.
I'm actually forced to play Crowell as my RB2. Have clement in my Flex until further notice.
I'm rolling with Dallas because their defense seems pretty solid and so far they've been good about getting sacks
also isn't Seattle's O-line kind of shit? because that would help a lot. a defense can get torched but if they get a handful of sacks it usually ends up being ok
I have Kamara, Kareem, Nick Chubb (for when Carlos inevitably gets hurt and misses two games like he does usually).
I had Gesicki, but I dropped him for V-Jax. I had Hooper, but I dropped him for Enunwa (whom I later traded for Cooks and Jones with Flash as the other WR in the trade).
The only TE I have is Dissly. I figure he could be a good backup if I do this trade. The other TE he has is Kyle Rudolph.
The only option on the WW is Olsen whose foot is dead and will probably break again when he inevitably comes back.
4th in Sacks and lead the lead in takeaways atm. Gregg is a scumbag, but the D looks great.. let's not talk about the offense.
Even if Hyde gets hurt Chubb will still take a seat to Duke Johnson. Even though they use him mostly in the passing game they could put him back as RB. It is a close call. If you are confident in your RB I would say do it.
I'm in the same situation and I'm starting Wentz.
If you have the Vikings I don't think you should be even rostering a second DST
Don't. You're trading 1 gamble for another since Freeman is hurt and Reed is Reed
If Ajayi is out or limited Clement.
What happened to 16 games Smurf? Are you saying you and BronsonLee can't make it happen?
I'll just keep Freeman then and go from there. Thanks Smurf.
I have Crowell, but you have to consider:
1. Thursday night fuckball produces inferior stats
2. Powell and Crowell are cannibalizing one another
The only plus I see is: Crowell wants to stick it to his old team
Oh, I have full confidence Bronson will deliver and Reed will play 16 games and the playoffs!!!!
But we can't add this to his value tho, gotta buy low on him
I don't trust Freeman, his injury this year is a holdover from last year. I don't think he'll be right all year.
I snagged Carson Wentz in the late rounds. Now that he is starting again, is now a great time to unload him in a trade or wait a bit?I need help at WR.
