It also limits downside so unless you are in a situation like matt described, you shouldn't worry about it.

Hillis @ NO

Hillis

For Flex:

Moore, Lance
Moore, Denarius
Richardson, Daryl (if Jackson doesn't play)
or
hope Jennings plays on Monday

Sanchez @ MIA or Palmer vs PIT or Weeden vs BUF

I would never sit ap normally but if those are your two options then I would lean toward bowe since it is ppr. The chiefs are going to be playing catch up and be forced to abandon the run. Bowe will see a lot of targets and a line around 6/90/1 is very feasible. That's my .02

my team is pretty good. I won't be sitting Bowe every week but he won't be starting either. probably should start him over thomas this week anyway with thomas going up against houston. This is a 10 team, 2 QB, ppr league:

QB: Cam
QB: Peyton
WR: Cruz
WR: D. Thomas
RB: Murray
RB: Lynch
TE: Gonzalez
W/R/T: AP

Bench: Bowe, LaFell, Ogletree, Andre Brown, Beanie, Mendenhall, Ryan Fitzpatrick

I threw out some trade offers this week to try and upgrade at QB and was countered with a couple offers that upgrade me at TE. Yahoo projections have both trades giving me a small plus but it just feels wrong to give up so much depth to upgrade from a 3-5 TE to a 1-2 TE and I could be hurting if I lose a RB, especially in trade 2.

Trade 1: I give AP, Brown, and Gonzalez. I get Gronk, McGahee, and Redman
Trade 2: I give up Murray and Gonzalez, I get Graham

probably shouldn't be posting the trades here b/c its a p5's league, but wgaf?

Neither of these trades will benefit you in the long run. Trade one you are giving up 3 starters for 2, redman is waiver wire fodder. Trade two is essentially the same thing 2 starters for 1. Gonzalez is producing as a #1 and will continue to do so in atl new uptempo offense under dirk cutter. I'd stick with your team as is and ride it out for the season. I mean what more do you want out of a te, he has a td is each of his games thus far and is a legit redzone/goaline target, esp w turner playing as bad as he has

I agree with this, I just cannot stand fitzgerald so far and am just afraid that he'll never produce numbers this year

.5 ppr pick 2 Desean Jax, Antonio Brown, Andre Johnson, Amendola

Jamaal Charles or Michael Turner, could also just go with the three of the four above and bench these two withered bums?

WR:
Dez bryant or Reggie Wayne?

I'm in the exact same dilemma. Idk what the right play is but pretty sure I'm rolling with Matty ice

It looks like s jax is gonna play but don't really know how effective he will be, and if hell even see the bulk of carries. So do I roll him out or go with his backup Richardson..have no.other rb options so have to go with one of em
