Matt Ryan coming back to reality was to be expected, after losing Kyle Shanahan.

I feel your pain with Pryor. He was a third round pick for me in my 10 team league. The crazy thing is, they don't need his production. They're still winning games.

on top of him I have Amari Cooper and Martavis Bryant. Parker is hurt for me, so a majority of my receivers are busts at this point.
 
dat gordon

I remember during my draft(Offline) I reached for gordon and then thought I made a huge mistake picking gordon over julio and obj

guess it worked out in a way
 
Hunt is killing me. I'm losing by like 9 points to a winless team and I have no one left to play but hunt and Antonio for Steelers. least he's doing something. My opponent still have giants TE to play
 
I grabbed Palmer off the waiver this week since Dak is on bye. I'd anticipate Dak being my starter and don't really want to carry two QBs, so I'm thinking I should try trading him while his stock is high. The guy who has Big Ben should want him. He has Brate and Agholor. Think trading Palmer for Brate is fair (and worth it)?

T.Y. Hilton and Demarius Thomas need to score a combined 17 points for me to win my matchup this week. I'm not feeling super confident about my chances.
 
I had winston and him getting hurt sucked, but Melvin Gordon once again absolutely saved me because he's a beast

I'm down 3 going into Monday Night. He has Delaine Walker, I have Hilton and Vinateri...should be able to pull it off hopefully
 
Got the win today with Fournette - but that potential injury has me shook.

Lucky for me, I also picked AP up on the waiver wire to replace CJ0.2K. Now if I could turn my RB depth (Fournette, D. Martin, B. Powell, R. Kelley/Perine, AP) into a WR...

Nice pickup on AP. I was thinking about it but I got nervous he was done and I have little on my bench I'm ready to drop just yet. Curious to see how he plays next week but today he was vintage AP
 
So on my big money league team I lost:

Aaron Rodgers
David Johnson
Alan Robinson
Tyler Eifert
Kenny Golloday - he’s coming back this season but I dropped him

I'm sick of Jordan Reed and am looking to trade him. I wanna bundle him with Amari Cooper or Adrian Peterson. I've got Gurley, Hunt, Fitz, Michael Thomas, and Sanders. Winston as QB so maybe looking to improve there, especially if he's injured. Who should I be targeting?

I also picked up Evan Engram as my other TE so I might roll with him for a while.

Ended up pulling the trigger on Palmer over Smith and it worked out well. My entire WR roster was awful this week, scoring a combined 9.9 points (had to play Tyreek Hill/Chris Hogan/Pierre Garcon due to byes/injuries). Luckily, every other position came through and I've got another win this week. Hope Fournette is still okay going forward.

Also, crazy how inconsistent this season feels. The dude I blew out last week (~150 to ~50) scored 132 this week, and is beating the guy he's playing by like 80 points.

My first win of the season. Thank you Cousins and Bell. Need to put together a little streak here and hope I can just sneak into the playoffs.
 
I just lost Aaron Rodgers today. I need to pull some trades in order to make anything out of the remainder of the season.

Ty Montgomery, and Devante Parker for Julio Jones.

I want to trade low for Philip Rivers and instead of panicking for a QB keep my decent RB depth including:

LeSean McCoy, CJ Anderson, Samaje Perine, and Adrian Peterson.

Think I could make this work? The dude with Rivers needs a RB so I'm thinking trying to trade Samaje and maybe Terrele Pryor?

Michael Thomas is still WR1, Right?
I have no clue as a Thomas owner. 2 awful games, 2 awesome games, and a meh one.

I'm probably gonna score the second or third most points this week and still lose. After this week I'm pretty sure I'll still be the second highest scoring team in my league and my record will be 2-4.

I know fantasy is mostly luck but it stills feel bad when you have a decent team and still lose a lot.
 
So I squeaked out a win I shouldn't have today lol. Now I have sole possession of first place!

Now looking to next week, I have Fournette and Gordon on lock with my RB1/2 positions.

Do I want to start Duke or AP in my Flex?

Duke is against Tennessee
AP is against the Rams.

Need TY Hilton to score 13 points or less to get my first win of the season, which means that Hilton owners should rejoice because he's undoubtedly going to go off.
 

Corran Horn

May the Schwartz be with you
Tempted to try and trade Michael Thomas for an RB. I’m good on WRs and he scares me. I know Saints passing game was almost nonexistent this week but after the Fournette scare I want a better bench RB than Abdullah and Breida (starting Bell, Fournette and Miller).
 
So on my big money league team I lost:

Aaron Rodgers
David Johnson
Alan Robinson
Tyler Eifert
Kenny Golloday - he’s coming back this season but I dropped him
Spoke to soon - Emmanuel Sanders can now be added to the list.

The good news is as long as Titans dst puts up 2 points or more I’ll win this week.
 
Gordon and Gronk! pretty much win this week for me, but seriously, Marvin Jones and McCown from free agency made all the difference.

My next job is to get a new #2 WR or RB. Big Ben, Watkins and Cooper have got to go. Gonna see if McFadden's owner will trade him and Alshon for Watkins-Cooper

I'm down 18 points with him as my only remaining player. The guy ahead of me only has DST left. So a combination of TY catching everything and both defenses being ass is what I'm looking for tonight.
 
Have Demarco Murray and tentatively Mariota (possibly Brisett if Mariota doesnt play) to score 9 points + whatever the Indy kicker gets so I cant beat my opponent.

Really hope I can pull this off. Should be able to but you never know.
 
My team is crawling back. 0-3 to 3-3. I am in a PPR league and I think my team is about to go absolutely off. I was offered Devonta Freeman and Brandin Cooks for Lamar Miller and Adrian Peterson (stashed him) and I gladly accepted. This will be my lineup going forward.

Cousins
Le'Veon Bell
Devonta Freeman
DeAndre Hopkins
Kelvin Benjamin/Brandin Cooks/DeSean Jackson
Mark Ingram

Having Ingram and Freeman finish their bye weeks is HUGE. Swapping out Ingram for Bell will be perfectly fine and I feel confident in swapping out Benjamin/Cooks, as needed.

My waiver claim of ASJ from last month is looking great too.

I feel my team has serious depth and is built to win a title.
 
Should I drop Breida, Crowell, or Ellington for Corey Davis right now? I'm pretty sure it's Crow but I have no clue.

if you play in standard, ellington loses a lot of value but he'll always have a role in the offense(assuming the cardinals are down). crowells been a big pooper so far this year though. you should try and shop him around before flat out dropping him(although i don't expect you will be able to get much)

personally i'm dropping breida for davis this week because in case hyde does go down, I don't want any part of the 49ers offense and i'm fourtunate to have depth at rb (gordon, muscle hamster, mccaffrey-although he's not as good in standard and of course hyde)
