I worry that MM is just going to stick to his guns and keep this a 3 headed monster, he has an odd love for the incredibly average jamaal williams

Matt Breida Weeks 1-3 saw a stacked front only 12.5% of the time according to NFL NextGen stats. That's sure to rise this week against the Chargers. He's been terrific, but shopping his services is recommended post-Jimmy G.

Alvin Kamara: 12 red-zone targets this year.
PPR RBs ranked 2 through 7: 12 red-zone targets this year.

Have to wonder if the tables have turned in DEN post-Lindsay ejection. Vance Joseph wasn't pleased with the rookie's actions considering how important his role was in the game plan at BAL. With that in mind and knowing KC's ills on D, Royce Freeman may be featured heavily Monday.

Only one TE in the NFL has 50 or more receiving yards in every game this year: #Bucs OJ Howard.

Thursday Night has some elements of a shootout forming. Peters/Talib out, Everson Griffin likely sitting with his off field situation. Trae Waynes listed as limited with an ankle injury.

This should be an upgrade to Vikes WRs, not that you were
really thinking of sitting them.

Saw this not long ago that supports what you're saying as well.

As #Vikings & #Rams both limp into Thursday night's game nursing key injuries, the total has risen from 47 to 49/49.5 and even 50 in one spot

Kamara's role in the receiving game would put him at WR6 in PPR. Ahead of AB84, AJ Green, D Adams, Julio Jones.

It has

The RBBC era has all the potential RB rostered. WR depth charts were pretty set

You’re FA league winners this year will come from guys who arent producing and are dropped.

Tyler Boyd is available in all 4 of my leagues, and John Brown is available in two. I'm assuming both are must adds, but who should I pick first between Boyd and Brown?

I think he'll get an uptick of targets in the check down game to account for this, Jimmy wasn't checking down near as much as the Hoyer/Beathard combo last year...hence why Hyde racked up 50 catches most of which came before Jimmy took the reins

I’d go John Brown over Boyd. Two more targets than Boyd over the first 3 games, more explosive, less entrenched #1 target to compete with, has proven he can sustain success before

Both should be rostered, though

Here you go J on Beathard check downs.

Think it's a significant upgrade? Lost my first game because of Cousins/Diggs/Bailey. Seems to be a common belief not to start QBs on Thursdays and after Cousins/Diggs poor performance against the Bills.
I'm nervous about starting them on a short week.
Was considering benching Cousins for Keenum vs KC, Tannehill @ NE or Mayfield @ Oakland. Was also thinking of starting Josh Gordon over Diggs if he's active but that was before hearing the Peters/Talib news.

Jordan Matthews played on 33-of-82 snaps yesterday. Only 9 in slot. Nelson Agholor 80 total snaps, 44 in slot


Most slot snaps this season for Aggy

Goedert ate into Agholor’s volume. Could be something to watch going forward if Wentz and Goedert has a rapport

I'm gonna have a close eye on Goedert this week to see if he can be a viable streaming option in week 5 for Burton. I would imagine Jeffery's status has an impact on that as well.
