Austin Ekeler is going to be a menace for the first 6-8 weeks and will be a valuable flex play when Gordon returns

WW receivers stole the show Sunday- but don’t be so quick to drop a guy you drafted. Hollywood Brown and DJ Chark might have just had their best week of the season. I’d want to see another few weeks before I put one in my lineup. John Ross and Terry Mclaurin should be added and I’d be confident playing either one. Phillip Dorsett will have 2-3 more weeks like that this year, but adding AB will nuke his value

Congrats to TY Hilton owners- you got a steal

Michael Gallup owners. Well done lads, looks like a strong WR2 that was probably drafted in the 9-12 round.

Sony Michel owners- don’t fret, the dolphins are next on the schedule

Evans/Howard owners. Y’all are probably fricked. Jameis has managed to regress.

Derrick Henry is going to score a lot of touchdowns this year. The Titans still have an absurd record when he gets 15+ carries and it seems they may have figured that out.

Tyler Lockett owners. You got what you drafted. It’s not a fluke at this point when he saves his day with a long touchdown. That’s what the guy does. He also dropped another 30+ yarder that isn’t typical of him. Start with confidence.

Chris Carson owners- congrats, they are going to force feed him in the passing game.

Devonta Freeman owners- it’ll be an up and down season. Expect a few more duds like that one.

Kenyan Drake/Kalen Ballage owners- sorry boys, bye week filler at best.

Kerryon Johnson owners- they’re still the lions. Prepare for frustration.

TJ Hockenson could be the rare rookie TE that is startable.

Us David Johnson owners should like that he was lined up outside 15 TIMES.

I thought Bruce Ariens would make Winston a serviceable NFL QB. At least not any worse than last year.

As a Saints fan though, I’m completely okay with this.

My favorite part of yesterday. I loved what I saw there. The Indy O Line is beastly and if Mack can consistently produce even 65% of what he did yesterday TY is in for a big year.

What did everyone take away from the Lions RBBC? Is CJ Anderson worth a hold? I didn't watch the game but see he had 11 rushes to KJ's 16.

Yep...and to think, I picked Howard instead of Henry.

Sammy Watkins might be a top 12 WR by years end.

John Ross may be a solid weekly play.

Dak prescott QB1

Jury is out. I think the bears defense will do that to a lot of offenses this season

Yep, I'll wait till they get a few weeks in before making that verdict on packers RB. The packers also didn't play many starters in the preseason so they had to shake off some rust against the worst defense to be rusty with.

As a Howard owner I hope you're right. Brate's involvement yesterday wasn't ideal either though. They drew up one for him that was a touchdown called back and he had another touchdown called back on a jump ball. I think big weeks are in store for Howard and Evans but the inconsistency is going to be frustrating

I think Howard will continue to be an up and down play, still a TE capable of winning you a week. I'll take that weekly upside, though I don't own him at all

Go start low balling Sanders owners who will panic awhen fantasy "experts" tell them this is a full blown RBBC. It was yesterday but pretty clear who the best back was, not to mention it was a super weird game with the Eagles getting behind early. I'd go after Montgomery owners too

We know most of the TEs will be up and down outside of the few big dogs

The real issue is being tied to Jameis. Dude threw 36 times, that game played just how you would hope if you own stock in TB guys. Jameis is famous for a few of these 50% comp shite burgers every year but you hope they won’t be as plentiful with the new offense

Hurst still had a healthy snap share, I'm hoping while most flock to him I'm going with Hock

He seemed to target Godwin in the red zone a lot so I am happy with him for the moment.

I think Lockett will be fine but I’m getting more and more intrigued by Metcalf as a possible Flex play down the road once him and Russ get more of a connection
