I actually contemplated streaming Taysom Hill this week with Rivers on bye. Went with Keenum instead. Options were very limited.

Have we talked about J Richard having a nice floor in PPR.
Going to be a nice flex piece moving forward.

The Raiders talked up Bryant throughout the week, hinting that he'd play a bigger role following Amari Cooper's trade to the Cowboys. So naturally he wound up playing just seven snaps.


0 targets for Bryant

Richard came in to today 2nd in targets and receptions on the raiders, he’s been steady all year

Carr has become the biggest captain checkdown in the league as well

Everyone rushed to pick up Doug Martin after the Lynch injury. I happily picked up Richard. He’s gonna be a super safe play for bye weeks and bad matchups for starters. Catching 6 passes a game and some good receiving yards? Sign me up in PPR

If Jarvis Landry were a rb, he’d be Richard

That's so annoying . Got a guy in one of my leagues who makes some of the worst roster moves, but somehow looks like a genius for doing it.

- A couple weeks ago he started Flacco over the more obvious QB play (can't remember who) and of course gets a 30 point game from Flacco.
- He drafted Robert Woods in the 3rd round, WAY above his ADP, and gets a WR1 out of it.
- Dropped Alex Collins for Lindsay week 1 because Collins had a bad week 1.
- Dropped like 50% of his faab on Chubb after that 3 carries for 100+ and 2 TD performance and kept his arse rostered for weeks while Hyde was still the starter...then the trade happens.

The list goes on, every year. The fantasy gods just refuse to punish him for his boneheaded management. If I tried any of the above it would blow up in my face guaranteed. Some people just have damn horseshoes up their arse.

Such a week to week league this year, you think you are good one minute and the next your are scrambling.

4 weeks ago "Kenny Gollady is a badass, perfect WR3"

this week " Kenny golladay is terrible, how the frick does Stafford throw it 40 times and he gets one target"

No role change for Jalen Richard in wake of Marshawn Lynch injury. Doug Martin led backfield with 28 snaps and 15 touches. Richard got two carries and eight targets on typical 15 routes.
