Both are on waivers. Which is the better option for Standard Scoring league?

Will Taylor be 100% coming off injury? Winston seems to always find ways to score.

Tyrod

If it were PPR I'd probably lean Jameis.

Taylor is a better pick up. I've had Winston all season. Hes been slowly coming along but Tyrod was money before the injury.

I came here to say Tyrod Taylor. Then I saw tzimme say "TyGod", so Winston it is.

What has he done to show you different? Winston is good for 1-2 INTs a game.

This isn't a call based on stats, matchups, or outlook. I've just learned that whatever you say tends to be wrong, so when in doubt, go with the opposite of your call.

So you're taking a rookie QB who's been a roller coaster all year over a consistent QB with a floor of 20 points each week. You're fricking stupid

I'm taking the opposite of whatever you pick. Which history shows is smart.

That's why you've probably been shitty this year in fantasy. You don't play the better player. The obvious is obvious

Doing just fine there chief. I was smart enough to leave Stevie Johnson on my bench this week.

He averages 0 the last 3 games.

He threw two in the opener. He threw 4 in a terrible game against the best D he's played (Carolina)

He has 4 zero pick games (three in a row once again) and one 1 pick game.

The issue with Jameis isn't picks. He's not putting up TDs and yardage.

Jameis is pretty much locked in to 200 yards 1-2 TDs and 0-1 INTs right now. Not enough production.

Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Phillip Rivers, Blake Bortles, Kirk Cousins, Joe Flacco, Ryan Tannehill, Andrew Luck, Sam Bradford, Matthew Stafford, and Peyton Manning.

Those are all the QBs who have thrown as many or more picks than Jameis.

I'm advocating for Tyrod over Jameis as a no brainer but this all Jameis does is throw picks shite is ridiculous.

By the way Taylor threw 4 in 5 games. Is that why he's better? Does it have nothing to do with the fact that he put up a lot more fantasy ppg than Jameis?

Taylor is better because his floor is far better than Winston's

Three of those came against the Patriots in week 2. He's thrown 1 since.

I disagree. His ceiling is far better. In my league Taylor averages 19.6 a game. High of 25 low of 13. Winston averages 15 with a high of 20 and a low of 12. Their worst performances are going to be pretty even. Taylor on average is just more productive and has a higher ceiling.
