NFT: FF 10/3 I need this to win…

superspynyg : 10/3/2022 11:29 am
So i played the top team this week and I am winning going into MNF. I am done and he has Kupp. I need Kupp to score less than 22 points to win. One factor in my favor is that its NON PPR.

Aldo would you drop Kenny Walker for Mostert? Walker is clearly behind Penny and Mostert gets more carries than Edmunds.
Good luck with

Kupp tonight. With it being standard you have a good chance. Your opponent probably needs 2 scores from Kupp. Problem is, he seems to do that with good frequency.

I had a rough Sunday. The Jonathan Taylor injury hurt me in my biggest money league, that injury cost me a win and dropping to 2-2.

Then the Javonte Williams injury is an enormous blow to my 12-team league. I was able to survive and improve to 4-0, but it's getting pretty desperate for me at RB.

I have AJ Dillon, CEH, and Kenneth Walker.

I was pretty close to a Stafford for Brian Robinson trade with this guy, but he wanted to wait. He lost again, is now 0-4, so I don't think he's going to try to win anymore...and will likely hang on to his big upside players in a 2-keeper league. Ugh.

I like Walker. Penny has a history of injury. I would hold on to the talent there. Play the long game.

Mostert will likely never be much of a starting option for you.
I hate going against Kupp  
pjcas18 : 10/3/2022 11:42 am : link
last year I had him, and loved it, but he is basically option 1 and 2 in that offense.

sometimes it's better to be lucky than good, in my one bigger league I laid an egg but my opponent was worse. He put up 100 points and he had players like Gabe Davis, Rashod Bateman, Tua in his lineup.

I had a bunch of goose eggs too. Like Okwuegbunam, Waddle, Jonathan Taylor, etc. but 4 - 0 is 4 - 0.

I'm actually 4 - 0 in both my leagues for the first time, if not ever, in a long time.

I jumped the gun.....

In one league i'm up 18 points and i have Kittle and he has SF D, so I could still lose...
had a horrible week  
UConn4523 : 10/3/2022 12:00 pm : link
the stars aligned on all the injuries for me to take advantage with the backups, but my top guys did nothing (Lamar Jackson, Pittman, Najee Harris). I have SF D and Deebo going tonight but I can't make up the ground.

2-2 though so I can't complain too much. Stole a win last week so it evened out this week. Really trying to just play the long game making moves that will benefit me during bye weeks.

I'm holding Walker. I wouldn't drop him for an often injured player in Mostert who doesn't get the goal line work. Agree on playing the long game with him.
I started Tua, which crippled me from the start  
Mike in Long Beach : 10/3/2022 12:04 pm : link
I need Matt Gay to outscore George Kittle by 7 tonight. :(

Had a great week even starting Dortch and getting burned. Evans and AJ Brown made up for it. Flexed Miles Sanders, started Mixon and Jamaal Williams @ RB and all of them had pretty good/big games.

Sanders' volume was a pretty big plus. Makes up for me drafting Edmonds before him since I can't start Edmonds with any confidence at all at this point.

I have Brian Robinson *and* Jameson Williams stashed. Looks like Robinson will be activated for next week and Williams should wind up back soon as well.

I'm pretty well stocked @ RB and WR right now. The problem is my lack of QB and TE depth. I only have Russ and Waller in those spots respectively. Might pick up Geno before the QB pool gets even thinner.. I was going to grab Dak because he was dropped, but someone else beat me to the punch on Saturday.

I can probably add Tyler Conklin as another TE option. Waller has been underwhelming thus far.
Dynasty league question  
allstarjim : 10/3/2022 1:02 pm : link
I drafted TB12 as my QB1 in year 1 of dynasty league.

On my bench I have Goff, Fields, and Ridder.

Fields was supposed to be the guy that takes a jump forward in year two and maybe be next year's dynasty franchise QB. That looks dubious at best. Probably need to make a waiver wire move here soon for filler...should I hang on to him for awhile longer and see if he starts to show something?

Otherwise, I'm putting my hopes in Ridder to take over in ATL and blow it up at some point.

Goff is a nice stop-gap, bye week, match-up play I guess.

Next likeliest drop fore would probably be Hunter Renfrow.
Javante Williams is out for the season...  
RC in MD : 10/3/2022 1:06 pm : link
so if you have Melvin Gordon, he may now become a viable RB2 or something. Who's their backup?
Also...  
RC in MD : 10/3/2022 1:16 pm : link
Patterson of the Falcon headed to IR for four weeks. Who's the best backup to pick up on the Falcons?
In addition to Javonte Williams  
pjcas18 : 10/3/2022 1:17 pm : link
ACL, Cordarelle Patterson to IR and Jonathan Taylor with a HAS and will likely miss time.

It's like the toll booth scene in Godfather if you're an NFL RB.

Its why I hate drafting RB early, such a dice roll. Just about every 1st round RB is playing no better than average, some have been terrible and others hurt.
I'm up by 2 and my opponent is playing LAR Defense

Falcons  
allstarjim : 10/3/2022 5:16 pm : link
Has to be Allgeier, right?

What I'm seeing is Taylor has a chance to play (I'd be shocked), but sounds like tests were negative so I think he'll be back in week 6.

Question...I have all my FAAB money ($100 budget). How much do I spend to get Boone?

Allgeier is rostered, btw.

Really curious how the backfield is going to be split there. Gordon has had major fumble-itis these first four games and it's really cost the Broncos. Probably two winnable games that went in to the 'L' side.
I should mention I had Javonte  
allstarjim : 10/3/2022 5:48 pm : link
Remaining backs are Dillon, CEH, Walker....5 PPR, so pretty pressing issue.
I think Boone  
pjcas18 : 10/3/2022 6:15 pm : link
is worthy.

just need to see if they sign a veteran RB, but with Gordon's fumbles and the usage patterns already, I think Boone could get a lot of touches/targets.
Of course

I dropped T.Allgeiers for G.Dortch on Saturday...🤦🏻‍♂️

there's karma for you. Kittle does nothing, and SF D dominates, up 18 going in with Kittle vs SF D and I lost. lol.

Noooooo! Ronnie if you had asked I would've said don't do it.

There was this dude in my 12-team league that was trying to trade me Dortch and Akers for CEH and Freiermuth. I turned him down and told him he'd be dropping Dortch in two weeks when RonDale was back and DeAndre is almost done with his suspension. Dortch is a whisp away from being WR4 on the Cardinals depth chart.
