Who to start in flex? Non ppr
Drake vs Chi
Sanu vs TB
Baldwin vs Oak
R Freeman vs Rams

I have Sanu in. Chicago run Def is really tough. Baldwin is still really banged up.
I think its hard not to like Sanu with this match-up.

Trade opportunity...  
EricJ : 10/13/2018 7:01 am : link
In a standard league where I can play 2 WRs and a flex which sometimes is filled with an RB.

I am trying to get Thielen from someone. My WRs now are...

TY Hilton
Baldwin
Tyler Boyd
Ridley
Mike Williams

I was thinking of packaging Boyd and one other.

Thoughts on that or would you offer two different guys? I want to keep Hilton for sure.
I wouldn’t take 2 of any of those  
UConn4523 : 10/13/2018 7:40 am : link
for Thielen unless Hilton was involved.

2 for 1s in fantasy almost always favor the team getting back 1. I usually make sure I’m that team.

Realistically you are going to need to give up Hilton and Baldwin. Otherwise you need to give up an RB.
Would you drop Blue for Ronald Jones?  
superspynyg : 10/13/2018 8:57 am : link
I have Blue and I picked up Foreman. I have a feeling that Forman will wind up taking over the starting job when he comes back starting next week.

Jones out touched Barber in week 4 (10-7) vs a very tough run def that Chicago has. Both Barber and Jones are both available.

my other backs are Gordon, Fournette and Drake. Non ppr.

Thielen is the #1 PPR and standard fantasy football WR. You are not being realistic.

What motivation does the Thielen owner have to trade him for two significantly lesser WR's. What does the Thielen owners roster look like that makes you think this is attractive to him?

That right there is the reason why he MAY do it. He has nothing else. His next best productive WR is Larry Fitzgerald.... which is like 2 points per week. So, my thought was the combination he would receive would produce more points than the combo he has now.

Yes, Blue is worthless, IMO. Miller will get the bulk of the carries until Foreman is ready. Jones has a ton of potential and Barber stinks. If jones can get things going this weekend I think he can effectively win that job. They desperately need to run the ball, they can’t keep playing in games that consist for 60 or 70 total points scored.
Cooks looks like to be a go....  
dep026 : 10/13/2018 9:36 am : link
so now I am down to choosing 2 of the following...

cooks
cooper
morris

What have you?
Cooks and Cooper  
UConn4523 : 10/13/2018 9:43 am : link
this is the final week I’d start Cooper. Gruden is taking a ton of heat right now and his best WR just isn’t getting the ball enough. It seems like every other week he has a good game, if you believe in that kind of thing.

Morris will get volume but he just stinks and there’s no reason not to try and shut him down and force Beathard to throw. Breida and Kittle are the only guys I’d want to start there.

Yeah, that was my thinking. I think a poor outing by Cooper and a Raiders loss will force them to deal Cooper. Dallas will overpay for him which makes Cooper more of a factor.

Cooper either really fell off a cliff or Carr is that bad of a QB.
Would you offer RB DJ and WR Golladay for WR Thielen in a PPR league?  
Milton : 10/13/2018 6:39 pm : link
My other RBs are Gurley, Breida, and Lindsay so it would leave me a little short at RB, but it would give me a WR group of Thielen, OBJ, Tate, Ridley, and Lockett.
would I be crazy  
Steve in South Jersey : 10/13/2018 8:21 pm : link
to drop Stills for a lottery ticket on Tre'Quan Smith. I have lost all confidence in Stills who was my #3 WR. I have decent top 2 WR.

non-PPR 12 team if that makes a difference.
TE  
Mike in NY : 10/13/2018 8:26 pm : link
Greg Olsen or David Njoku? The thing is San Diego is one of my D options (other is Seattle playing @ Oakland)

I would go Njoku but there is little difference. Go with your gut.

Having san diego as a defense should not matter to you. Njoku can go for 80 yards and a TD while the SD defense can get a pick 6.
