What are y'alls thoughts on this...
1 pt PPR

RB's: start 2 RBs and a Flex
Kamara - start
Mixon - questionable
Ingram - ready to roll
Hines - a nice PPR guy, especially with Hilton & Mack out.

Should I start Hines Thrs night in case Mixon does not play and have Ingram as my back-up plan to Mixon. If I go with Mixon, Kamara & Ingram, and Mixon doesn't go - I am screwed. My bench for the Flex spot would come down to Ross and Coutee.

Tevin Coleman vs PIT
Nelson Agholor vs MIN
Shady McCoy vs TEN

Gotta go with Mixon... the Colts literally do not run the ball period. they had 17 attempts last week and 3 of those was Luck

Week 5: - Who Do I Start?

I would play Edelman over Adams

TBH I approached his inquiry with more of the ROS outlook w/ those WRs rather than this week. I would not start edelman over adams on a short week coming off suspension

oh i gotta defend this now, ok


quote:

I’m not going to ask

Assuming PPR

Thomas Hopkins Diggs start every week

Adams has been TD dependent, hasn’t cracked 100 yards yet. Still seeing the volume but Rodgers injury isn’t helping. I would play Edelman over Adams

You should look to consolidate those guys though


You see where i opine about starting the 3 guys every week, then give a nod to edelman over adams? This is interpreting it as a season long inquiry

Every other start sit I will make a reference to the game, whether it be the matchup, target share, whatever. Ive only been doing it the same way for years, but i digress

If I were talking about this week start or sit, I surely wouldve referenced Adam's calf injury and the injury to the other WRs in GB, his matchup with Darius Slay, Edelman returning on a short week Thur game, NE's implied total and being 10 point favorites at home, edelman may be eased in, Gronks injury and so on.

Need 2 out of these 3. .5pt per carry and .5pt ppr

Yeldon vs Chiefs
Lindsay vs Jets
Lynch vs Chargers

Of course I have LF7, but drafted Yeldon.
I'm thinking Yeldon and Lyndsey, but Lynch has been getting close to 20 carries a year. Seems like Booker is the 3rd down back still, which boggles my mind considering Lindsay catches the ball well

Thoughts....thanks

Aaron Jones (GB) @ Detroit
Kenyan Drake (MIA) @ Cincy

0.5 PPR


Drake has 8 carries combined the last two weeks, I think we will pass on him until further notice

only you can decide this bubba

i would start hines w/ no hilton and co, colts will be in ketchup mode i believe

Gyno, off topic for a second but who do you like ROS between cohen and hines especially in PPR leagues? Both look very good as a passing down back and are quick out of the backfield. With all of the injuries on the colts offense, you would think hines would be a smart play going forward. Thoughts?

Would need to see either establish a consistent string of games. I like Cohen better as a player with the offensive potential of the bears, which they showed last week

Hines has more volume now but I think Cohen is better

PPR, PIIHB

Why would I laugh at a guy on pace for 72 receptions, 1264 yards and 4 TDs. He’s doesn’t play Jax either

Anyone particular over another in that group. Allison is also available. Mainly looking to replace a RB spot
