Post waiver period...M.Davis went for $40 (out of $100 for the season) to an owner, who lost CMC for a few weeks. But the best was seeing D.Freeman go for $28 to an owner, who picked up B.Snell last week for $20 just to drop him this week to make room for Freeman...bahahaha (he won the league last year because he lucked into L.Jackson).
I'm super high on J.Kelley this season, and thankfully, I was able to manage picking him up in three of four leagues.
I have to figure out who my RB2 will be with Barkley gone. Right now its James Robinson as my RB1 and then either Moss, Gibson, Dobbins, or Freeman. Right now i'm going Dobbins on MNF against the Chiefs - might change my mind on that as the week progresses.
Interestingly in this same league I dropped Parris Campbell for Claypool. I don't think he's a start yet due to the lack of targets but that can certainly change as the season progresses. I'm not confident in flexing him yet.
Mike Davis went for $125 (so on a $100 scale that's $63)
Devonta Freeman went for $110
Dion Lewis went for $49
Darrell Henderson went for $27
My only move was Colts D - waiver claim (so $0 but used my waiver priority - which was 9 out of 12 anyway)
Some people are desperate for RB's.
Dion Lewis actually went for $9.
Also picked up Dalton Schultz for nothing.

Same here. I was 11th of 12 in waiver priority and got him. someone prioritized Dion Lewis over him which I don't really understand. He can't carry the load, he's basically the 3rd down RB once Freeman gets up to speed.

You're right. People are pretty desperate for RBs. I started with two rookies as my starting RBs (J.Taylor and C.Akers), but only one at this point seems like a starter. However, I also scoured and found potential long term players in J.Robinson and J.Kelley along with possibly Z.Moss if J.Allen doesn't keep taking the goaline TDs away from him and D.Singletary.
The owner that spent $40 on M.Davis keeps bitching about how he dropped J.Robinson after the first game for M.Brown.
Current lineup:
QB: R.Wilson
RB: J.Taylor, J.Robinson
WR: J.Jones, D.Chark
TE: H.Henry
FLEX: J.Kelley, D.Adams
If D.Adams can't play, who do I put in for my FLEX2?
D.Slayton
J.Reagor
Z.Moss
W.Gallman
L.Shenault
C.Akers
J.Williams
I've had my share of takes on Freeman but from a fantasy perspective, I would think he's got the clearest path to touches in the NYG backfield once he's up to speed and should have at least some semblance of a floor.
Can't see Lewis having much of a floor at all. He'll be entirely reliant on targets and with Freeman being a guy who can play in the pass game, I don't think there will be enough of them to justify rostering him.

I'd go with Slayton. Can make a case for Reagor, too.
Moss... eh. The rest of them I wouldn't even consider. I wouldn't even roster Gallman at all. Akers isn't useable at this point. Shenault is a hold but not a play yet.

D.Slayton is my first option as well, especially with S.Shepard out and that 9ers' defense taking big hits. I also think that with S.Barkley out, the Giants may rely more on D.Jones's arm.
W.Gallman was my waiver pickup for $1 after I missed out on M.Davis, D.Freeman, and D.Lewis. As far as C.Akers goes, I have the bench slot to hold him...for now.
RB: Jon Taylor, Zack Moss.
WR: Keenan Allen, JuJu, Robby Anderson, Russell Gage.
I was going to go 3 wides this week.
Also, my QBs are Wentz and Minshew. Is it time to go with Minshew against Miami or Wentz against Cincinnati?
I’m wondering if I should make a trade to improve my WR unit. I have Jones, Parker, Green, Slayton and Reagor. But have more RB depth than anyone in my league: Jones, Taylor, Sanders and Robinson. Wondering if I should try and package Sanders or Robinson for another high end WR like Hopkins. I could get Evans probably easily from one owner but worry about his consistency. Biggest issue with my receivers now is consistency, I hope once Parker is fully healthy he will be a more sure fire WR2. I’m playing him this week, cause I can’t trust Green yet.
Going to hold onto him but I don't think I can possibly start him this week.
Will probably go with Carson, Hunt and James Robinson @ Flex.

I like your WR options; however, J.Kelley is playing against the Panthers, and they are garbage against the run. I can see J.Kelley getting double digit carries again and scoring (maybe even multiple TDs). Moss...ugh, he's just not worthy to start.
Thank you RC
3 TD's back to back weeks and a near term schedule with MIA, CIN, HOU on it, many people's backup (or waiver wire pick up) might wind up as a viable starter.

definitely when compared with Wentz.
Love it. Mixon is in a dead offense right now, he's a RB2/Flex right now and possibly all year. I have Jonnu Smith as my backup to Ertz, can argue starting him over Ertz but either way there's TE depth this year.
You are getting a massive upgrade at RB for giving up almost nothing, IMO.
I have Jonnu myself, and he's been really good so far - but I'd gladly take the Elliott side of that deal.

I drafted Josh Allen in the 8th round and Minshew in the 15th round. So far, I am winning the QB draft award from that perspective vs those who drafted Mahommes and Jackson very early in the draft. Long season though so we will see how this turns out.

Well I would not say giving up nothing. Mixon will produce this year and Smith will continue in my opinion. He and Tennehill are working well together. There needs to be a net point benefit for the team on the other side. I have Hunter Henry so I could afford to give up Smith

I read some talking head tweet that Josh Allen was the best QB in NY (an obvious shot at Darnold and Jone) and I unfortunately found it hard to disagree. today. Allen has a cannon, and is mobile, and has no fear - almost like a bigger Brett Favre. He's gone from a punchline to a legitimate NFL QB, and possibly franchise QB in 2+ seasons.
Hopefully Giants fans have the same patience for Jones.
This trade is so one sided that there is absolutely no way he'll take it. If he does, kudos to you!
Zeke is the only remaining healthy top 3 RBs (Kamara may be considered in that group), so there is no way the guy takes it for a chance at a TE.
If I had Zeke there is not a snowballs chance in hell I'd accept this. I'd get a TE off waivers before I did that trade.
Or without a TE they maybe have a WR2/RB2 they could trade for Engra, Giseki or Jordan Reed or someone like that.
Just before the season started I traded J-Rob for Engram and everyone in the league was pissed off at the owner who gave me Engram. No one is pissed off now.

You are only giving up Smith, Mixon I consider a swap for a much better player.
Thankfully, I picked up Robinson before week 1 and I feel pretty confident in my RBs still. I am worried about my depth overall though and not sure how to proceed.
I am luckily 2-0 (after lucking into a poor performance win in week 1).
Top available RBs are Malcolm Brown (waivers) and Gore (FA). Top WRs aren't much better.
My roster:
QB(1): Ryan
WR(3): Cooper, AJ Brown, Jeudy, Shenault, Kirk, P Williams
RB(2): CMC (IR), Sanders, Robinson, Michel, Scott, Armstead (IR-COVID)
TE(1): Engram
K: Fairbairn
D: Buffalo
We also start a W/RB/TE flex position.
I am not really seeing any available players to warrant a move at this time. I guess I could have went overboard on Davis. My WR3 and flex spot is very very weak as long as AJ Brown continues to be week-to-week.
Options this week are:
Tampa Bay @ Denver (likely to move forward with them)
Cleveland vs. Washington
Washington @ Cleveland
There are others but I'd consider these the top choices of the week.

My first choice is TB @ Denver with their injuries. Then Cle vs. Wash based on their pass rush.

I'm starting TB in one league, Cle in another, and Ind in my last. We don't do kickers or Def in my league that I commish.
For you, UConn, I'd say TB is probably your best bet. Between injuries, etc. I don't think SF is worth holding.
I dropped him to pick up Shenault. Looking like that was probably not a great move - but maybe it'll pay dividends later.
kickers are random IMO. Sometimes it's better for FF to have the good but not great offense's kicker - you know - the offense that struggles in the red zone, but is good at moving the ball. If you don't draft Butker or Tucker early.
I'd go Blakenship gun to my head.

Reagor is headed to IR, fwiw.
Not going to rock the boat because volume is volume, I just really hate kickers were voted added back into my league.

Kind of wish I hadn't dropped DeSean Jackson. Reagor is doubtful and it looks like Jackson is really the top WR in Philly right now.

Bah. Thankfully I don't own Reagor so that part of it isn't so bad for me - but I'm definitely kicking myself for dropping Jackson.
