I know. Have TY and Jordy as my 1/2s now I’m just scrambling. Standard scoring.

QB: Wentz, Winston
RB: Gordon, Lamar Miller, Doug Martin, Duke Johnson
WR: Jordy, TY, Chris Hogan, Garcon, Corey Davis
TE: ASJ, Reed

Available on wire: Stills, Doctson

What would you do? Stay put or drop someone for one of those?

Id almost rather do a two TE set of Reed and ASJ than put TY in this week.

I genuinely haven't seen a worse situation for a WR on a bad team. Generally, I like WRs on shite teams because pass-heavy game scripts are usually in play, plus garbage time (think Gordon a few years ago or Allen Robinson/Keenan Allen with Rivers in hurry up)

Yet the Colts are so bad it doesn't matter here. Like that OL is so bad Luck should get a purple heart for winning a single game during the past few years.

I'm actually kind of excited they suck so bad so I can see if Marlon Mack gets some extended run. I think he can backdoor his way into RB2 PPR value by the end of the year

Over the last two weeks, Evan Engram has seen 33% of Giants’ targets and enormous 42% of their air yards.

Engram is averaging 49.8 YPG (even with 0/0 in Week 5), which would be the fifth-best single season in YPG for a tight end ever.

Engram is on pace for 121 targets, which would be second-most for a rookie TE all-time since Jeremy Shockey saw 128 targets in 2002.




I wonder how much Sterling impacts this when he returns

You have work to do w those WRs

Duke isn’t a thing, much less a thing in standard. Add doctson for him

Garçon isn’t a thing in standard w Beathard. You could go Stills there

Look to deal Wentz and reed to QB and TE deficient teams for WR help

Til then I’d start Hilton and Hogan at WR and flex the TE unless you trade one

Bears RB Benny Cunningham (hamstring) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Tarik Cohen owners should keep tabs on Cunningham’s status. If he’s out, Cohen’s playing time and upside go up.

Vikings WR Stefon Diggs (groin, ankle) took limited practice reps Wednesday. Diggs traveled to London and reportedly has a chance to return this week, though the Vikings have a Week 9 bye and may elect to hold him out another game.

Would be great to see him throw up a big number and move him.

This could be Joe Mixon’s breakout week. He draws the Colts, who have given up 0.76 PPO to running backs on the ground, tops in the NFL. Mixon’s own PPO (0.27) ranks toward the bottom of the league, but he did flash big-play potential last week, gaining 6.9 YPC. He’ll need more than seven attempts do to damage, but if it’s going to happen at all this year, it needs to happen this week.


Its gotta be this week right BilJ?

I mean this has to be the week.

if there's a coach dumb enough to punish Mixon for his comments..its Lewis

with bye week hell, you're most likely running him out there
