I have Blackmon and Welker on byes. So depending what happens this week with Harvin I might need a receiver to plug in this week.

0.5 PPR

Jones @ Dolphins
Stills @ Jets

Jones better in ppr. DAlton doesn't throw deep well.

Jones no question.


Stills is probably the most extreme boom or bust reciever he only averages like 4 targets a game. Just so happens he makes those count.

I'd pick up Jones, regardless of your bye week situation.

Although Stills gets 4 to 5 targets a game... so does everyone else. As long as he keeps catching and getting past DBs... he'll be a good deep threat... I'm thinking Torrey Smith from last year.

Especially with Graham hobbled, Colston lookin like a bitch and Sproles not getting as much attention in the passing game as she used to.

I like Jones, and picked him up last week after 2 solid games in a row (but didn't start him for his game this past weekend). He has a bad shoulder, he plays limited snaps, and Hawkins coming back could cut into his snaps even further.

I would not play anyone on the saints not named Brees or Graham. It's spread around too much and you never know who's going to blow up that game.

Ya, that's the worry, but why on Earth would you not play him more after what he has done the past few weeks if you're the Bengals?

Would be rather upsetting.

ya, i'd stay away from Stills...everyone was excited about him after week 1, and then he disappeared for 3 weeks.

...I think both players will end up disappointing you, honestly.

if you really wouldn't play Sproles in a 12 man PPR league, then I feel sorry for your team

FYI. I play Sproles in a 12 team PPR and he had ONE good week. Brees has forgotten about him

one good week?

...sorry he's not Jamaal Charles and putting up 20+ every week.

He's put up RB2+ numbers 4 of the 7 weeks...with a couple of average weeks -- just like Marshawn Lynch and Arian Foster (good players have bad weeks).

Should I use the #2 waiver spot on Marvin Jones? The waiver order does not reset each week.

I currently have mega, vjax, josh gordon and DHB at WR.

I'm not sure Jones would play for me much, but if he keeps this pace up, I could try to trade him i suppose.

wouldn't ever start him over your big 3...i like DHB too.

...doubt Jones does anything consistently spectacular the rest of the way.

might as well though...i'm trying to get him...pretty desperate at WR

Jones out of those two options.

I have few decent waiver wire options. My squad needs a WR#2 (since Welker + Fitz on bye this week), so should pick up Alshon Jeffery OR Marvin Jones OR Darrius Heyward-Bey? 1/2 point PPR league.

I think Stills is a better bet to have another good performance.

With that logic you should also not play decker, dt88, Julius Thomas, welker. Now how does that sound
