With Brown questionable on Monday night, I have a decision. Plug in Dotson if AJ is inactive. Or avoid the situation all together and roll with DK @ NE who is currently on my bench.

I’m a favorite to win with either.

I’ve picked up Dotson and Mooney everywhere they were available, just in case.

DK should be a decent play.

I’d take the established guy you drafted to play over the complete wildcard that you are hoping has a real role if there’s an injury

Especially if you are a favorite, bank safe points. The eagles offense could quickly go through the several options ahead of Dotson who may not even have a great grasp of the playbook yet.

I agree with half your point. If I knew AJ was out, that would make it easy right? But the established guy I drafted and balled out last week is AJ Brown. And he might play. And he might not.

The other guy, DK, shite the bed last week and has a tough matchup traveling from Seattle to NE.
Get my concern now?

I think DK is good enough to where you just play DK.

Don’t have a great feeling about AJ after DNP with a hamstring today

But I do get the concern. DK didn’t do much last week and has a tough matchup this week. And AJ is a monster that you want to play if active.

I'd wait on AJ, DK gonna have to deal with Christian Gonzalez shadow coverage who has been balling out lately. Dotson should be solidly WR2 if Brown is out. Will that be amazing? Probably not, but I think he has a solid chance at 6-10 points.

I have AJB too. Wondering if I should plug in Keenan Allen.

I’d take the floor with DK.

I’m not taking the chance on a late MNF scratch. Flexing Pollard in over AJB in one league and gonna roll McHonkey over AJB in another.

I’d play a lot of guys today over AJ Brown risk. Even if he plays what are we looking at? 10-15pts, at best, IMO.

I’m starting Javonte Williams over AJ Brown.

DK wouldn’t be on my bench.

Would you guys play Lazard today or drop either Tank Bigsby, Ty Chandler, or Bucky Irving to pick up Ray Ray McCloud as an insurance? .5 ppr

I’m not dropping any of those 3 right now. All seem to have at least a decent standalone value and lotto tickets if the RB1 goes down.

Just play Lazard. AR loves the guy.

Who else do you have on your bench? Lazard had nice week last week but he isn’t an auto start. Feel like you have better options than to play Ray Ray. Is this a flex spot bc I would play either one of those guys you trying to drop over Ray Ray? Can you arrange your lineup to make this a flex spot or do you have another position already in your flex?

I don’t have any other players playing on Monday. If I’m rolling with Brown, I’ll need to drop someone to pick up either McCloud or Dotson.

My other bench players are Tee Higgins, Puka Nacua, and Raheem Mostert.

I understood the dilemma and setting aside DK playing well and brown out early..

You had two high performing guys.

One had the minor red flag of 1 bad game

The other had the risk of not playing leaving you a bum to fill in, starting but having a pitch count, starting and aggravating the injury etc…

Sure all things equal AJ is the guy but we are talking about a top 5-10 guy vs a top 15 guy, and like 2 points per game different over the long haul. Unless you think DK is suddenly a different player, it was a relatively obvious safe bet for a guy expected to win
