I have a Mon-Thu lineup in DFS. I saw this game being far lower scoring of the two so most of the positions were either Eagles or Falcons. Because of this, I only have two positions left to go: RB and Def. And the way the salary works out, I can fit either of those options, but I can't go Jets and Hall due to salary. I could do Patriots and Stevenson, but of the 3 possible combinations I think that one will score the fewest amount of points. So yeah, not optimal, but when you do these weird 2 game slates, these are the decisions you need to make.

If you can still get Kamara at the season opener price, now is the time to go out and grab him. TE is a wasteland. Yes you can do better but is it worth burning a trade? Kamara at his current price makes way to much sense. Evaluate the other guys for a week and then make the call after the first batch of price hikes

They are not very talented, but they looked frisky coming into the game against a division rival. The Jets simply trounced them.

The Jets simply trounced them. They made Rodgers look 6 years younger. He kept everything right in front of him (very few deep pass attempts) and just carved them up. I do wish he broke 300 yards thought. In my money league it gives bonuses for 300 and 400 yard games and my QB situation is less than ideal (him and Trevor :suicidesmiley: )
September 25, 2024Sep 25 Author So how are we all doing at TE? I have three money leagues, drafted a TE in the 3rd round in one, 10th and 12th in the other two. All three are 12 team leagues. I ended up with Kelce, Bowers, and Goedert. Moral of the story, I am never drafting a TE early again. I have NEVER seen anything like this at the position in 15 years of playing FF. Even way back when I started and the league didn't pass as much you could always count on one or two guys to be elite every year no matter what (Gonzalez, Clark, Gates, Gronk, Graham, Witten, Kelce, etc)
September 26, 2024Sep 26 It is an awful position right now. I've been rolling with Freiermuth in one league and just hoping for a 6 to 7 point week in PPR each week. It has to turn eventually, but teams just aren't getting the TE involved in the passing game
September 26, 2024Sep 26 I sniffed out TE early in the draft process. Kelce is due for regression. LaPorta was banged up to start the season. There was no sure thing in a position that draws little points. No reason to reach early in the draft when the guys waiting at the end aren't that far apart. I waited and settled for a guy like Freiermuth at the end of every draft.
September 27, 2024Sep 27 Author I picked up Ertz yesterday and I'm strongly considering playing him over Kelce this week. He's been getting consistent targets as a check down/safety blanket for Daniels and after McLaurin they have very little at WR.

That makes him a borderline starter. And a great bye week fill-in if he's still available. Kelce is in a schneid mainly because he hasn't scored a TD yet. I feel like Mahomes has to go back to him at some point this season, so I am hesitant to bench him. Gutsy move if you put in Ertz for Kelce.
September 27, 2024Sep 27 i sort of panic-drafted laporta in the 4th of my $$ league because all the decent rb's were gone...and he's been pretty bad...now injured & has his bye in week 5 so i'll have to pick up somebody like conklin, kraft, or fant.

For this week, Conklin. I was considering him for DFS but went with Kincaid (Kincaids matchup is too good) If I rank them it would be Conklin, Fant Kraft.
September 28, 2024Sep 28 Ok, I think I’m over thinking this: Dionte Johnson and Texans D or Keon Coleman and Jets D

Wilson will get the Surtain treatment so there could be more targets to go around to guys like Lazard, Williams, Conklin this week.

Gutsy move if you put in Ertz for Kelce. 4 receptions and 30 yards may be top 10 at the position come the end of the season. It shows how bad TE has been this year.

September 29, 2024Sep 29 Looking at my weird salary cap team I need to make a couple of decisions. I need to start 4 of Kamara, Barkley, Hall, Cook, Taylor and Mason. I think I let Taylor and Mason ride the bench I need to pick a 'captain' that will score double points. Initially I had Hurts as my choice, but with Smith and Brown out, I am wondering if I should go with another option. I am thinking Barkley may be the better play, here are my other options QB: Daniels (Darnold on the bench) RB: Same list as above WR: Jefferson, St Brown, Chase and Harrison Jr TE: Kincaid or Bowers

I seem to be good at drafting underwhelming guys. I have LaPorta and Mahomes on my team.

Someone in my 12 team money league actually dropped him after the first week and I picked him up. I was going to drop him after week two but they had already announced that Dalton would take over before I could so I kept him. I've played him the last two weeks which has been really nice since I lost Cooper Kupp to injury and it's been a game changer.
October 1, 2024Oct 1 I'm going to be 1-3 after losing tonight. My QB play has been very underwhelming. Dare I bench Mahomes for Sam Darnold, who I picked up on waivers? I need points. Mahomes was supposed to be a top 3 quarterback that would give me a boost in points over the dummies stuck with guys like Kyler Murray or Drew Jones.

Mahomes hasn't had a top 10 fantasy QB week since the middle of last season. He is a prime example of someone who is a great real life player but not great in fantasy, not any longer anyway. Losing Rashee Rice isn't going to help either. Benching him for Darnold seems gross, would feel gross, etc, but you have to consider it depending on the match ups at this point.

Darnold against the Jets isn't great. Neither is Mahomes vs. Saints with his best WRs missing. See if you can get Justin Fields vs. Cowboys or Geno Smith vs. Giants. Don't drop Mahomes, but he is going to be a week-to-week matchup play at this point.

PPR Scoring Conklin - 3.7 Fant - 3.6 Kraft - 14.3 So the two unquestioned starters basically do nothing but the team with TE 1a and 1b has one that goes nuts. (Musgrave had 2.8 points) TEs this year man......
