okay... in a half point PPR, I need to pick a RB and a Flex. What do you think?

Pacheco
Gus Edwards
AJ Dillon
Kyren Williams
Fournette (he pays Monday and is questionable)
Josh Palmer
Courtland Sutton

Also, I have to choose QBs. Not sure about trusting Fields. Choices are... Brady or Fields today.

Thanks
I'd probably go  
robbieballs2003 : 12/4/2022 9:07 am : link
Dillon, Palmer, and Fields.
Mixon sounds like a long shot to play.  
robbieballs2003 : 12/4/2022 9:19 am : link
I also have to decide between Etienne and Montgomery. I want to start Etienne but I'd like an update on him. Montgomery is a solid fallback option but I'm playing Mike this week for first place in our division.
My preferences  
DCGMan : 12/4/2022 9:21 am : link
RB: slight nod to Pacheco. Averaging close to 20 carries per game. Limited in pass game. Tough run defense matchup today
FLEX: definitely Palmer
QB: definitely Fields

I have Monty and Etienne really close. I like Etienne more, if he plays I'd probably play him and I think he's expected to play.

Planning to go without Mixon who would you start as standard flex:

Najee Harris @ ATL
Brian Robinsonm @ NYG
DeVonta Smith vs TEN (Hurts is my QB)
Treylon Burks @ PHI

So far there is consensus that Palmer is the flex..

but split on who the RB is..

If Gibson plays, then Harris. If Gibson is out, then Robinson.
With no Mixon  
ajr2456 : 12/4/2022 10:19 am : link
Gus Edwards
Curtis Samuel
Knight

Leaning towards Gus
I’d probably start Palmer

yeah no easy choices there.
I am starting Palmer and moved Perine into my flex on Mixon news  
GiantBlue : 12/4/2022 11:21 am : link
I am in a superflex league and already used Josh Allen. I have Herbert as my other starting QB, but Lamar Jackson and Deshaun Watson on bench.

Would you sub out Herbert for either Lamar or Deshaun?

I was thinking of keeping Herbert in vs. LV rather than Lamar vs Denver's tough CB's and Deshaun on his first game back.

Any opinions?

coin toss between Hebert and Jackson
Ceedee Lamb or Olave?  
DefenseWins : 12/4/2022 11:32 am : link
in a half point PPR league?
CeeDee vs. Indy or Olave vs. Tampa Bay  
GiantBlue : 12/4/2022 11:49 am : link
I would probably go CeeDee hoping Indy keeps it somewhat competitive where Dak has to keep throwing.....because he seems to look CeeDee first.

I know this question gets old, but seriously how many teams? You have Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson and Justin Herbert in a super flex league which is basically 2 QB's. Not to mention Watson, but he's less surprising with those others.

Those are 3 of the top 6 QB's.

8 team?

just curious, Herbert and Jackson are really close IMO, I'd probably go Herbert b/c DEN D is better.

RB flex  
moze1021 : 12/4/2022 12:35 pm : link
Antonio Gibson

Or

Zonovan Knight

??

Pacheco is the RB to play today. This game can be a barn burner. I think if both RBs between he and Edwards were in similar neutral matchups, I'd play Edwards. But Denver is pretty good against the run and trending better in recent weeks, while Cincinatti plays the run ok but has been uneven recently despite holding down Derrick Henry. But there's too many fantasy points in this Cincinatti-Chiefs tilt and I simply want as many pieces of it I can get.

Palmer is your flex with Mike Williams out today, the fact this is a .5 point PPR doesn't hurt. Kyren Williams, Sutton, and Fournette just can't even be considered...gross options that shouldn't start for anyone this week. Look, Kyren Williams? Why even have a L.A. Ram on your roster at this point?

Najee Harris
Debo Samuel (playing but dinged up)
McKinnon
Van Jefferson
I agree Defensewins

You should go Pacheco
For your QB  
allstarjim : 12/4/2022 12:41 pm : link
You have to play Fields, man. Have to. Brady vs the Saints always scares me.

Also, did you miss that Jalen Hurts just set a single game Eagles' rushing record against this same Packers team just last week with 157 yards? And Fields has had a game just a few weeks ago with more than that! Fields is a terrific play against the Packers.

Bucs and Saints, tough division matchup, Lattimore and Evans are going to be fighting all game, lol. Just avoid, it's not that Brady has been all that good this year anyway.

Najee and I think you have to play Deebo as much as he's been disappointing.

If anyone asks my opinion about any L.A. Rams player, it's always going to be to bench. McKinnon is not a bad play, actually, but I think slight edge to Deebo here. I really think he's just going to have one of those games soon that come out of nowhere that is the classic Deebo game, and everyone is going to say "he's back!"
I agree  
UConn4523 : 12/4/2022 12:46 pm : link
sticking with the guys that have the highest scoring upside.
Yeah Najee and Deebo

Is the play

Any thoughts on Gibson vs Knight in ppr?

I picked him up the first week that Fournette went down. Very few viable RB options out there in this 12 team league. I had the roster spot available and grabbed him not knowing what he could do.

I also grabbed James Robinson after the Jets traded for him. Look where that ended up now.

I am in 2nd place in the league and in the playoffs. I am trying to figure out who COULD be a league winner out there. My other RB is Barkley so I may need to just pickup Brightwell.
Question for you guys  
allstarjim : 12/4/2022 12:49 pm : link
.5 PPR in a must win, need upside as I'm projected to lose by double digits:

Miles Sanders at home vs a tough Titans run defense

OR

Tyler Boyd in that barnburner game against the Chiefs, with Ja'Marr Chase making his return.

I think J-Rob can still get back in that picture.

Sounds like committee today with the Jets.

I would play Gibson, even though I expect Brian Robinson to be the lead dog there, I think the Giants do well against the run today and Gibson gets some work out of the backfield and has more success through the air.

I also think his style of running is better suited for some success against the Giants as opposed to Brian Robinson, whose game really plays to the Giants' strengths with their tough run defense in the middle.

I think you still need to go Sanders. Boyd is just a victim of "just one ball to go around" IMO, and his targets are not predictable

No I wouldn't make that move. Just because I'd expect Breida to get a lot of work in that scenario. But I wouldn't be opposed to dropping Kyren Williams for the right add. J-Rob is a bench and hold for me.
