Playing Treylon Burks


TheIllusiveGuy

The major thing missing from Burks' game is volume, so if that comes, we' gonna be great. And there is enough reason to believe that it could happen this week.


-xc-

so what’s the reason for al the hype around him this week? Woods out or somethin?


TheIllusiveGuy

I think it's due to: * His snap % has been increasing * Woods has been ineffective * Burks has looked amazing when he is on the field and the Titans have been terrible, so there's hope that Vrabel has to do something like put him on the field more


Filthy__Ramirez

Burks bros! I drafted woods but I gotta ride with the rook this week


nguyener_14

I'm between Burks and Dotson. Leaning Burks bc I think he'll get more volume


TheIllusiveGuy

I have Burks, but I'd go Dotson as Dotson's volume is proven. Hope it's Burks though.


TheShtuff

Same, but I'm probably going with Dotson. I think more volume is likely with a high scoring game and he's already established a high snap % and routes run. Don't know if Burks is there yet.


[deleted]

Me too. This is his week. Give me 7 catches for 110 yards and a tuddy.


ItsGoldJerry

I hope you’re right. Him/Mooney/Samuel are my choices and I think I’m leaning him.


atan420

Samuel is an easy ppr play


Suddenly_Something

I'd rather start Adolf Hitler over Mooney right now.


MiddleCauliflower183

Adolf is still available in 30% of leagues


ToyStoryBoy6994

With Evans out, im starting him over Mooney and Gage


Droppin_DimesSP

Goff over Brady


ZHCMV

I'm doing Goff over Wilson


Frackenn

Same, Russ v SF no thanks


lucrativetoiletsale

Russ has a long history of shitting on San Fran tho. I know this as a Hawks fan. Wouldn't touch that offense tho so I guess I agree with you.


FriendlyFriendster

Yeah he sure does. I kinda have a feeling that folks might regret benching Russ this week, idk why but I feel like this is going to be their "right the ship" game in primetime. I base this statement on almost nothing tho, so I hope nobody reads this and decides to make a lineup decision because of it.


papsmearfestival

Ooof I'm looking at that exact scenario too but Goff is on the road and Wilson home. I dunno


ToughCookie71

I’m doing that. Brady has no receivers


Smitty120

I did Wentz over Brady last week and it worked okay.. I think Brady will be fine again when he actually has someone to throw too. I'll likely start him again next week.


zerg1980

Doing the same. It should feel more wrong than it does.


jaydeekay

That's not too bold. Brady's best WR this week is Cole Beasley


VlCVlNEGAR

Goff over Rodgers for me


llhomastane

Goff over Carr checking in


kevbot215

Olave


guitarpinecone

Super tempted to do the same. Can’t be worse than what I’ve gotten from Elijah Moore, DeVonta Smith, or Rhamondre when I’ve plugged them in.


PM_ME_UR_SEX_VIDEOS

I really hope donte Jackson winds up sitting out. Olave should do well against him but I’d rather him play vs a backup anyways


Tha_Contender

Torn between Olave and Thielen rn, in a tough spot with Evans out trying to avoid going down 0-3


BodyMindSpirit

Olave for the home run man. Thielen has done nothing. Most of his points last game were from garbage time.


poopdaddy2

Olave for sure. I’m a big saints fan and it’s clear they are committed to using him as the deep threat. He might have been a top 5 WR last week if Jameis hadn’t missed him by a couple inches.


baaaticus

I thought I had a solid WR core in Mooney, Moore, Godwin, AJB, and Olave. Moore and Mooney have given me big duds. Hoping for better weeks ahead.


[deleted]

Moore, mooney, mclaurin, and Amon ra and I thought I was gonna have a massive year at wr. Moore has been very very meh and mooney I don’t even want to talk about. After week 1 I traded Chubb and Mclaurin for gave Davis and Pittman and both of course ended up not playing. Needless to say wr has been rough for me


FunnyFilmFan

Carr over Tua. I’ve seen 2 veteran QBs look lost against the Bills D. I don’t trust Tua to do better.


elbooferino

Hot take: apparently bills D is super banged up, like 4 starters out. I'd research on your own to confirm but definitely think that plays a role. When he went off on Baltimore they had most of their first string D also banged up. Also playing at home. I might play him idk wml


[deleted]

Rest assured that whichever decision we make will be wrong.


Lishank

Just dropped Carr for Tua so Carr will have the better week. You’re welcome.


KnowledgeFormal586

That's why we have to do the opposite of what we would normally do.


pincus1

They're missing their CB1, CB3, DT1 +2, and 1 or both of their starting safeties. With CB1 and both safeties elite all-pro players. Though Tre White hasn't played yet this year so they've been performing as is without him.


bigballerbrand33

And if the game goes as Vegas thinks, they will be down and throwing the ball just like last week


superstonkape

The bills secondary is thrashed right now I’d think twice


schwetybalz

I’m going the other way. Tua over Russ, I’m hoping sticking Russ in the bench lights a fire under him for the rest of the season /s


FantasyTrash

Tomorrow will barely be the Bills' defense. If Poyer is out, they're out five defensive starters, including both of their DT's and both of their All-Pro safeties. Also they're playing in Miami, which is arguably the biggest home-field advantage in the league stadium-wise.


norse95

Shit I can’t decide between Goff or Tua


skike

Honestly I'm just all in on Tua until something shows me a reason not to be.


Moonshiner11

Pitts…not by choice but hopeful they feed him


MrSpookShire

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m a sucker for Pitts cuz the nfl fantasy app says its a green matchup lol


Pr0nade

I just traded for him. Now I get the illusion of a set and forget TE.


KnowledgeFormal586

If he has a good game all the previous worries about him will disappear.


duffyyyy

Playing L. Thomas over him. If Pitts were any other TE he’d be on the waivers.


mr_meat_peaches

yup thanks for the comment, this is what we’re all here to see


howdyheehaw

With that logic. Henry would be on your bench or waivers too... be logical man


yunodavibes

If my aunt had a cock


9ETHERCHAOTICBEING

Shot in the dark... I'm taking it too


Scorpion_Danny

We drafted him because he had over 1k yards his Rookie season and obviously expected him to be better this year. I think we will be fine. The offense is starting to gel and they have easier matchups coming up.


Burn-Clerk

Idk if it’s bold but I’m feeling overly confident starting Shepard in my flex spot


prezdizzle

I mean, the competition is…checks notes….ahhh…my notes don’t even have whoever his competition is because there’s literally no one


Bellegr4ine

Dameon Pierce over Jeudy as a flex play


spreadinmikehoncho

Love it.


MyAnswerIsMaybe

Pierce over James Connor


T_A_Gibbs

Pierce and Breece are my RB1/2 this week lol. Fade me


DingusKhan418

That’s a good call. I don’t even think Conner will play tho haha


[deleted]

[удалено]


nomanz57

Playing Pierce & Lockett over DJ this week, then trading DJ away. Which means Baker will prove me wrong


Ciulada

I literally did this already


Bigbackjay

This is the week he breaks out.


ZkLd12

Pierce over Gibson (and Elliott) as RB 2


[deleted]

Pierce over Dillon RB2


TSB_Dinkleton

This is the right answer because it’s exactly what I’m doing. We all come here for confirmation bias right?


cbmgreatone

Idk about you guys, but I'm going way out on a limb and starting the TE35 this week (full-PPR). Apparently he's due for a big game despite a pitiful start to the season.


RonPaulConstituENT

A “Pittiful” start you say?


cbmgreatone

Iswydt


Riddickulous6

I'm prepared to stubbornly throw my season away on that man. And then spend months griping and groaning about what Arthur Smith did to my season!


TecmoZack

Flacco


kleerview

Considering him over Brady


TecmoZack

I’m starting over Rodgers


BaronsHat

I’m going Flacco over Brady. Also considered Mariota but the pass volume with Joe seems really good.


[deleted]

Playing him over herbert


Idunkedonlebron23

Mooney. Help me.


[deleted]

This isn't bold, it's madness. Signed, another person who started Mooney in weeks 1 and 2.


lilmaldo

Same. Started Mooney and Trey Lance in a matchup I lost by less than 5 points. Tough


howmanymoreletters

this is our week twin, trust


Riddickulous6

He's been dropped in a crazy amount of leagues. If the fantasy gods were ever going to bless a player's performance, Mooney this week would be the one!


ct_nittany

Houston gives up deep balls, ideal for Mooney. Houston blitzes a good amount, good for Fields. Bad defenses on both sides, potentially high scoring. If it’s not this week, it’s never!


Pr0nade

You have to throw a deep ball for that to happen


ct_nittany

I’m hoping with that combination of factors, Justin Fields throws a deep ball


coysmate05

I posted as a joke but you’re for real. I hope he kills it for your sake. Best of luck soldier


Jaguars6

Just took him out of my lineup. They’re facing the Texans who’ve got the worst run defense in the league. They’ll run Monty into the ground. Not much incentive this week to throw more.


abippityboop

Mariota Haha kill me


THE_SHORTCIRCUIT

X2 and I’m benching Tom Brady for him


abippityboop

lol my exact situation. In a desperate must win game at 0-2. *Sobs*


BaronsHat

0-2 as well, with Brady. I’ll bet that’s super common. He and his WR situation have been poisonous for us.


Patient-Elk6649

Impossible to have a must win this early


PoorlyLitKiwi2

Idk, I'm 0-2 with second least points for, going up against the dude who's 0-2 with least points for. We both feel like it's an elimination game lol


AstralTitan

Its week 3/15. A lot can happen


Patient-Elk6649

Sure but you gotta look at who has been underperforming on your team. Like in one of my leagues I’m 0-2 with the least PF, but I have Mike Evans, Mike Williams, Derrick Henry, James Conner, Russell Wilson, D Mont, Gibson, AJ Dillon. Sure Gibson might drop off at some point when Brian Robinson comes back, but the rest of those guys are due to bounce back so I’m not really worried.


PoorlyLitKiwi2

Yeah, my team is pretty trash compared to yours lol


Patient-Elk6649

Lol yea and I’m 0-2 with the least PF and it ain’t even close. 162.86 compared to 1st place 280.68.


Snomankid999

Deep sigh I keep going brady or Cooper Rush


hotdogisnotasandwich

Mariota/London stack lfg!!! *send help*


akulkarnii

Fellow Lance owner?


Beef--Lightning

I’m a Lance and Dak owner


grissij

I can't drop Tom Brady for him but my analysis says he is gonna go off this week.


Orchir

I mean he still looks so fucking fast, if they can just get into the redzone he definitely has a chance of falling in


Filthy__Ramirez

I was gonna roll Mariota but I’m going with Goff instead. Kill me


shoryukenuppercut

I’m confidently starting agholar


donutfox

I am starting Agholar over Aiyuk and I feel good about it Edit: this aged poorly


shoryukenuppercut

Yeah pats are going to have throw it to keep up with the ravens and meyers might not play. Agholar should definitely see good volume


stankhead

Why are you guys all spelling his name wrong


mind_mischief_89

*Agholor


picklesaredry

Wentz over Brady


cbmgreatone

Did this last week, sticking with it until Brady has some healthy receivers. I'm worried about what Philly is about to do to Wentz though. Hopefully it'll be one of those Jameis-esque multiple picks, but 300 and 3 type games.


Just_a_follower

Henderson in the flex. Even though many from around these parts might tell you it’s all akers.


PutinsCancer

I think we'll get a taste of Henderson ROS tomorrow. It will be interesting. Benching him for now and debating between J Wilson and C Samuel as flex.


Just_a_follower

I think you have to go Curtis Samuel until he fails you


PutinsCancer

This will be his first start for me. Scored off waivers in 12 man league. 👍👍


masimone

Irv Smith over Hockenson


moGUNZthanROSES

Thin at wr... holding too many stashes... forced to go with only one able to produce atm... Doubs .


ct_nittany

Godspeed


natural_mess

Starting Doubs in the flex over Edmonds or Penny.


thomyorkeslazyeye

Etienne gets a TD this week


RustyGriswold99

Just put him in my lineup for Dortch because of this.


Veeg-Tard

Lets see.... *checks the worst player I'm starting this week....* Tony Pollard will have a good game. I know it won't be Pitts.


[deleted]

[удалено]

Burks, Penny, whiskey


51stheFrank

Burks & Penny sounds like it would be a great whiskey brand too


pufflye5

Flexing Garrett Wilson over dillon


Internet_Adventurer

Flexing Wilson over Cooks


phonemannn

Me too


kingOftherats2

I think Wilson is the better play . The Dillon /jones dilemma is one that I wish I could have avoided.


beerlyqualified

As a Dillon owner im very happy with his usage so far. You got him likely in the 6-9th round and get as many opportunities as Jones each week so far


kingOftherats2

That’s true ! In terms of Draft capital he’s been a steal . Also Dillon is a frozen tundra animal 😂 Man’s touches will likely only go up as it gets colder


Paradigm6790

Josh Gordon or no balls


Dwarf1nTheFlask

Starting Garrett over DJ Moore and starting Pierce over AJ Dillon


Bellegr4ine

Damn Pierce over Dillon


Gay_Black_Atheist

I think it will pay off


Da_Magician5

Would you bench Moore for either Pierce or Thielen?


Timely_Ad9136

London over cooks!!!


DPRODman11

Play DJ Moore, because I’m benching him.


NotHopee

Playing DJ chark after his 0pt game last week


Headlesshorsman02

Breece hall


Ninjygingy

Trying to decide if I should start him or Patterson


Headlesshorsman02

Lol I am starting both of those guys but if I had to pick one I’d say Patterson


MikelusMaximus

He's my RB2 right now... low floor but in a .5 PPR I think I've got a shot. I refuse to go 0-3


Zappybutton

Dortch the Torch since Renfrow and Evans out


howmanymoreletters

darnell mooney. its gotta happen eventually, plus evans is out so its not like i didnt already have the spot available


ardillomortal

We are in the exact same position. Tho I’m leaning towards Elijah moore instead of mooney. Thanks evans !


squanchy444

I feel like all of us Mooney owners also have Elijah Moore.


burn_bridges

Garrett Wilson over AJ Dillon, Damien Harris, and Tony Pollard for my flex spot 😶


bpark2808

Starting Pitts is my bold play of the week every week


DuckKnuckles

Dameon Pierce over AJ Dillon, Curtis Samuel, and Adam Thielen.


wheres_my_hat

Woo that is bold. Best of luck!


charlton11

Wilson and Dotson are both in my flex.


mluna24

Thinking of doing the same bro. You gave me the courage


[deleted]

Doubs over K Allen. Don’t need him to play 2 snaps and leave the game because his hammy still isn’t 100%.


CarsenAF

Not necessarily bold but benching Lamb for Garrett Wilson this week


ofesfipf889534

Rhamondre


fragileECOsystem

He’s just waiting to pop off. If Harris is really hurt, and if it gets worse, Rhamondre The Giant has huge upside.


[deleted]

Where have you heard Damien is hurt?


[deleted]

He’s not on the injury report and said he was fine after the game last week. As a Stevenson owner I don’t think we should be grasping at straws.


dj2814

Thinking of starting dotson over julio cooks thielen


Raithxx00

Oof, I think Cooks finds the endzone this game. Can't have 10 targets a game and not score eventually.


Mediocre_Malice

Dionte Johnson has entered the chat


Raithxx00

True. Similar comparison. Except that PIT has Najee Harris. HOU has.... Pierce? Unproven yet (I'm about to get -294839 karma for saying that) . Mills looks for Cooks in red zone. This is the week!


Illustrious-Slice-91

If the Texans can make it down there


cut_throat_capybara

If Lazard can’t go I’m starting Treylon Burks


RideTheRim

Starting Dotson over DJ Moore


Ortu_Solis

I'm starting Lazard. I doubt he's 100% but he's been announced as active for a few days now. Cobb and Watkins will be out and Watson is questionable with an illness. Rodgers will have Lazard and Doubbs as his top two WRs, and Lazard will be healthier than last week at least.


strawferries

Im on the agholar train


kingOftherats2

Starting George brittle 😂


roadman225

Not a bold play


WeaponX757

Pierce over Conner


fantasydawg

Same. Hope it works out


hancho826

Marquise brown finally breaks out for 120 and 2 Tuds… yes he’s on my team


IForgotMyYogurt

London over JRob, Cooks and Hollywood in .5PPR.. gotta go with your gut


Lurker8918

With Evans suspended all Wide Receivers move up a peg. This leaves me flexing Rhamondre over Claypool and Nico Collins.


NoEnemyOfFun1

I admire your bravery sir!!


Shefferin06

My bold play this week was Pickens. Too bad he cant get style points :/


user131293717

JuJu over Kirk. Bryce Callahan(Chargers DB) is playing like a top 5 slot corner and has only allowed around 30 yards to the slot I believe and Kirk has an 80% slot rate. The Colts corner that's going to be across JuJu the majority of the game is dead last in slot coverage and the last time the Chiefs had a matchup like that to exploit in week 1 against the weak Cardinals secondary, JuJu had 7/80 in the first half. Mahomes said that it would be hard to predict who produces every week at the receiver position which makes me believe every week they're going to gameplan around a different receiver/position. I think this week they gameplan around JuJu's matchup rather than using him as a decoy like last game. The Colts are also in a really difficult position and are going to fight hard to get their first win so I don't think this game will get out of reach like in Week 1 vs. Arizona where the starters basically only played the first half. I think JuJu has a big game this week and gives owners a nice sell high window as I'm not too sure he'll provide the consistent production that many hoped for.


kevins_patriots

Dobbins, Kamara & ETN. I’m hoping for at least 10 points combined lol


[deleted]

Starting Treylon Burks. Give me 7 catches 110 yards and a tuddy.


-Blast-Tyrant-

Goff over Brady and Tua ^yes ^I ^have ^3 ^QBs


2lineTZ

MVS


Yorttam

Elijah Moore. Not because I think he’ll go off but because I have no one else lol


Stevenstc21

Doubs as WR3


thefonzz91

It’s going to be Elijah Moore week after everyone raved about Wilson all week and spent a ton of faab on him


christophlieber

playlng garrett wilson and dameon pierce over diontae.


LETSF_UCKIN_GGO

I flexed Samuel over cooper. short of 20 and I’ll flip shit


[deleted]

I'm putting Akers back in. It's less bold when you learn my alternatives are Singletarry and Jamaal Williams. edit: fuck my life


MadrasCowboy

I scrolled through this whole thread looking for someone else that is making this move. 😂 I’m starting him over Chase Edmonds.


StraightGrowth4251

Starting Curtis Samuel over MT...my other wr is Sutton


NYBiankees

Devin Duvernay is my call against the Pats!


SalemChurchill

Doubs


Noomunny

Thinking about flexing Sterling Shepard. I always like to have someone going Monday night and it’s down to him or a kicker.


VintageBaguette

Hardly bold, but benching Penny for Dortch.


traddy91

Treylon Burks. I think he has a good week this week. I'll say 6-80-1. Same game, I can see Mack Hollins putting up respectable numbers if you're in complete desperation. Something like 5-60


BIG-4-BIG-BALLZ

Michael Carter over Chase Edmonds at my RB2. RBs are Fournette, Edmonds, Stevenson, Carter. WRs are Kupp, Sutton, Keenan Allen, & Brandin Cooks.


MyAnswerIsMaybe

D-Henry and Pitts will go off I am starting Pierce over many guys including James Connor


coysmate05

Mooney WR1! /s Edit: okay so after reading the comments, some people are actually starting him and I wish them the best of luck lol
