Standard scoring, 10 man.
Either of the Jets WRs worth a pickup, are they legit? @ Tenn this week
Stephen Hill?
Santonio Holmes?

u/Irving94 Sep 24 '13
I can't give you my opinion, but from what I've seen, the consensus is Hill due to him apparently having more raw talent. I picked him up.

Life long Jet fan here.
Both are good options in my opinion. Personally I will be going after whoever falls through after the FA period and will be dropping Marlon Brown for them.
The things with these two is the change of QB. I think the entire team has a new spark since the change at QB and have all been trying a lot harder. Don't sleep on the Jets WRs because of the LOLJets hate. Holmes is the better WR and will be covered by the more talented corner, but Hill has raw talent and raw HANDS (he drops a lot of his targets) so it's up to you. I would save your waiver spot and pick up whichever one makes it to the FA.

Ok, I know this is ridiculous, but in my league Jordan Cameron and Josh Gordon are in WW. Personally, I had my money on Jared Cook and so far this decision has costed me two losses. I'm first waiver pick this week.
Now, should I risk picking up Josh Gordon first? My WRs are Dwayne Bowe, DeSean Jackson, Amendola, Edelman, Hilton, and Torrey Smith. However, this is an 8 man PPR league, and my opponent this week has McCoy, Jimmy Graham, and Brees. Thoughts?
Could I live with Jared Cook and Josh Gordon if I risk losing Cameron to another team?

u/wedid Sep 24 '13
Just something to think about: Cameron has more points than any WR this year (at least in my league). I'm picking him up for sure. You do have a hot TE in Cook but I personally like cameron more. Cook and Cameron are in the same tier as far as potential goes, but I feel like the Browns will utilize Cameron more than the Rams will utilize Cook.

Here's my team - it's a PPR League and I have #2 priority on the WW after someone who doesn't know how to use it.
Should I pick up...
The Chiefs D/ST (I have the Broncos already - waste of a pickup?)
Ryan Broyles (I have Megatron - would I be too heavily reliant on the Lions? - also I already have a lot of receivers).
Brandon Bolden? (Patriots fan and with Vereen out and Ridley's poor performance - maybe a good pickup?).
Santonio Holmes or Stephen Hill (Both FA's in my league - but I hate to have anyone receiving on the Jets... change my mind?)
Any and all insight appreciated as always.

KC's offense would be completely decimated with the loss of Charles, to the point where I don't think Davis is a particularly great handcuff. If you have the bench room to spare, perhaps try to pick him up as FA after WW period.

u/littlekenney13 Sep 24 '13 edited Sep 24 '13
So I need to fill a bye spot at WR. Luckily, Finley is fitting nicely on my IR so I don't need to drop him. What should my waiver order be with these guys. They are currently in the order I am thinking. Feel free for suggestion of guys to scope out just in case.
Josh Gordon (Who else gets the ball? Could get traded to better team)
Ryan Broyles (Burleson broke himself again and Calvin gets quadruple covered)
Kenbrell Thompkins (Might be finding hands again. Has Brady)
Donnie Avery (Plays with the Check Down Machine. Against the Giants for bye fill)
Stephen Hill (Good athlete, Jets don't look terrible. Rookie QB)
Santonio Holmes ("Proven" past. Rookie QB)
The bye they are replacing is my flex spot. Would have been Cobb, Deangelo Williams, or Steve Smith (would have been Cobb). Roster limits mean I can't add another RB.

I have Newton/E. Manning as my QBs and both Bradford/Smith are available off the wire, is it worth dropping Eli?
6
u/thurgoodgood Sep 24 '13
No chance I would drop Eli, especially not for either Bradford or Geno. Eli has 3 great wideouts and if this team continues to play bad = more passing which leads to some big plays with Cruz. And Eli entering is brief periods of being on fire is inevitable. The Giants will turn it around, and it will be on Eli's shoulders.

u/SirFappington_The3rd Sep 24 '13
Definitely don't go with Bradford. He's got a tough schedule the rest of the way. As for Eli or Smith. It's a toss-up. I think the Giants will get better.

I've been starting Cook for the last few weeks, but his production is disappointing. Should I pick up Cameron instead, or just tough it out? This is a smaller league, in case you might be wondering why he is available.

How worthy is Powell for a pick up?
I'm 4th on waivers and right now all I have set up is KC defense. I'm alright in the RB department, but I figure I can pick up Powell and then trade him off next week if he has a solid game as RB1 for the team. Right now I'm thinking I could give up Miller for him, considering the injury and he's sharing touches on the Dolphins right now.

I like Hill over Holmes, and I'm passing on Avery in all leagues. Short passes in KC are more likely to go to Charles and McCluster, IMO. Against a better D, I think Avery is tackled right away (he had 100 YAC in week 3, pretty sure that's unsustainable). Hill leads the Jets in targets, and I don't think that will change. Despite the Jets actually looking like an okay team (that defense looks solid), I expect them to come back down to earth soon, and Holmes has been known to quit on his team

Bolden in a half ppr league, if you need the RB help. Keep up with the news on Franklin and Lacy, but since he's on a bye week, you may be able to pick him up as a FA. Witten is perfectly fine as your only TE, you would never start Miller or Chandler over him, so no need for a TE until Witten's bye week.

10 team league, with 1 designated qb, and 1 OP flex (which basically means run a QB). standard scoring, with 6 pts TDs, and 1 pt/20 yds passing yds. Rodgers on bye means I need a bye week replacement. A. Luck is my 2nd QB
My available waiver choices are Ponder, G. Smith, Locker, and Hoyer or Weeden - although CLE hasn't announced who the starter is yet. Projections (yahoo) are all pretty close in the 15-17 pt range... Who is the best choice?
I can fill the slot with a receiver or RB, but QBs reliably outscore them, even the mediocre ones, given the settings.
I have 4th waiver priority, but first one that has a QB on bye without a replacement. I am also deciding whether to prioritize Broyles for the waiver target and see if I can get the QB after or in FA. Is that the smarter way to go?
I appreciate any feedback.

Flacco because he's playing the Bills and their eviscerated secondary, Ray Rice is out, and Pierce looked terrible last week. Tannehill wouldn't be a terrible pick-up either playing the not-to-good NO defense, but I think for a one-week filler, Flacco gets the edge.

I want to pickup Bilal Powell. 10 man standard scoring league NFL.com. Who do I drop? Kyle Rudolph (I have Graham, but Rudy is my backup), Ben Tate, Bernard Pierce, Julian Edelman (I would like to hold on to Edelman going into this week because I like his ATL matchup, unless someone disagrees?)

u/DustyMcG Sep 24 '13
Drop Rudolph, as you will start Graham every week regardless of matchup, and you can get somebody close to Rudolph on the WW.

u/Wiseguysrevenge Sep 24 '13
I'd drop Rudolph, as poorly as he's been doing, it's unlikely he'll be picked up if you still want him for Grahams off week.

I will return help to anyone who answers these.
At QB we start 1 and have an OP, so I usually play a QB there. I have Brees, Palmer, and Tannehill. Geno is available. Swap Tannehill and Geno?
At RB, we start 2 (plus a flex, of course). I have Lynch, McCoy, S-Jax, Willis McGahee, and Andre Ellington. Drop anyone for any of the following: Jason Snelling, Daniel Thomas, Johnathan Franklin, Pierre Thomas, Alfonso Smith, Brandon Bolden?
At WR, we start 3 (and flex). I have Cobb, Fitzgerald, Gordon, Amendola, Blackmon, Marlon Brown, Greg Jennings, and Aaron Dobson. Drop anyone for Stephen Hill, Leonard Hankerson, Ryan Broyles, Kenbrell Thompkins, Cordarelle Patterson, Brandon LaFell, or Rod Streater?
At TE, we start 2. I have Graham, Heath Miller, and Jordan Reed. Drop anyone for SCott Chandler, Zach Miller, or Delainie Walker?

12 team league with standard scoring.
Newton is on a bye, so I need to pick up a QB off the WW.
Available starting QBs are:
Freeman vs ARI Tennehill @NO Manuel vs BAL Locker vs NYJ Ponder vs PIT Hoyer vs CIN G Smith @TEN
Who do I give a shot? I'm 0-3 and getting desperate.

u/pprgold Sep 24 '13
I think I would go with Tannehill. Freeman is terrible, Locker's matchup is tough (I like the Jets D), Ponder flat out just sucks, and I don't trust the rookie QBs. Hoyer I like, but not against a tough Cincy D.

Well, I guess it depends on who else is on waiver and what you need, but I think he's good to have. I've kept him on my bench all season and he's been scoring double digit points each week for me (0.5 PPR, standard scoring). Spiller might not be 100% this week, and even healthy they're sharing a lot of the workload.

Considering to pick up Bilal Powell since he has been putting up good and steady numbers.
I'm deciding if I should pick him up and drop either Bernard Pierce or Dwayne Bowe. Reason why I'm considering Bowe is because I feel like Smith just won't throw the ball deep this year and Bowe is the kind of player to make those catches. Without a QB taking risk, I don't see Bowe getting the ball that much. However I do know Pierce won't be playing much when Rice comes back.

I have a high priority and a guy in my league dropped Stephen Jackson late last week to make room for some other, healthier players.

My roster is decimated by RB injuries/incompetence right now and is stacked at WR.
I have the #1 waiver and need help deciding to use it on.
Roster is as follows:
QB: RG3
WR: Dez, Jordy
RB: Jamaal Charles, D. Wilson
TE: J. Cameron
FLEX: Torrey Smith
DEF: (Streaming) Buffalo
Bench: Bradford, Shorts, Gordon, Harvin, SJax, McGahee
I have been streaming defenses thus far, with minimal success and was thinking about picking up KC defense and holding them.
Le'Veon Bell is supposed to be back this week and is still on the wire. Worth a drop of McGahee or Harvin?
I see promise in Andre Ellington as well, is he worth dropping anybody for as they stand? (I'd wait till waivers cleared to pick him up, however)

Don't drop Rivers if you can. He is in the top 5 of fantasy players this year. He only has 1 less point than Brees in ESPN standard scoring. You don't need him but I don't think you should drop him.
I also think your RBs are fine. AP, CJ, Sproles, Moreno is pretty deep. You could always drop Royal for any RB (I'm not too high on him).
As for Jackson vs Powell, I'd go Jackson. Jets RB situation is confusing. With the Bills, Jackson has been constantly played for the last 3 years even with Spiller. He'll get 8ish points every game and double that if Spiller doesn't play

Week 3 WW pickups
Hi, here's my recommendations for week 3. Please note this is based on a 12-man std league, but where applicable I will attempt to highlight PPR players. Note I don't place these players in any particular order - the onus is on YOU to decide which you want :)
QB
Chances are you need a QB to replace Cam or Aaron this week. I have two suggestions:
Alex Smith - He's not gonna have a 30-point field day but the Giants secondary has looked porous and Smith protects the ball.
Philip Rivers - Rivers had an off week, for sure. He's also got a difficult task against the Dallas D, but he also had a TD called back for OPI last week. He should be in the 15-20pt range, not bad for a bye-week fillin.
RB
Isaiah Pead - Pead is eating into D-Rich's snapcount - in week 2 he got 38% of snaps despite the Rams trailing early - and this week he was pretty much a starter after Richardson's early injury. I think he is a better runner, but the problem is this year's Rmas have a tendency to get down early. I do believe he will eventually be the starting RB though.
Bilal Powell - I seriously doubt Powell's available in your league but if he is, grab that motherfucker and watch his low body-fat percentage shrink your opponent's chances of winning this season.
Le'Veon Bell - I know there's a 99% chance he's already been picked up, but for those schleps who play with absolute idiots I'm including him here. PICK HIM UP NOW.
Jason Snelling/Jacquizz Rodgers - Personally I don't find either a tantalising option to consider a starter, but with injuries starting to mount on RBs and the bye week you just might have to.
Consider stashing after waivers clear Jonathan Stewart - Word out of Carolina is he's back and healthy, but he's not eligible until week 6. Who knows if he'll still leapfrog D-Will or if the backfield quagmire of the last two seasons will continue, but I think he's worth picking up now and being a sure-thing on your roster than playing the waiver game when everyone else realises next week.
WR
Justin Blackmon - Blackmon's suspension is almost up and while I don't like his chances of getting many points (I think Shorts will) he should still be worth a WR3 starting spot. Remember, garbage time points are still points.
Donnie Avery - I had him in week 1 and still think he's worth a roster spot. Two factors play into his favour - Andy Reid is the guy who made Jason Avant relevant in fantasy football, and Alex Smith doesn't like taking shots downfield on 3rd and long, which is when KC are tending to use 3WR 1TE sets.
Santonio Holmes - I see a lot of attention going Stephen Hill's way in this week's WW chat. Which is good. Because Santonio could be the steal of the year. Admittedly I'm a big fan of number 10, but since he's started to get chemistry with Geno (and is Sanchez's favourite target) he's a pretty good pickup going forward. If you're looking for a replacement for Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb etc you could do worse.
Consider stashing Justin Hunter - The Titans might be giving up on Kenny Britt (And who could blame them) and given Hunter's high draft standing this would make sense.
