Full PPR league, need 1 RB and 1 FLEX:

Corey Coleman, Abdullah, CJ Anderson.

Leaning Anderson and Abdullah right now but Coleman probably has a higher ceiling than both so I'm torn.


1/2 PPR league, need 1 WR and 1 flex:

Corey Coleman or Chris Hogan, Kareem Hunt or Dalvin Cook

Leaning Coleman and Cook here but I'm honestly finding this a very tough decision, especially the RBs.

cook over hunt for me, no clue on the WR's. the week 1 bye for miami and tampa is killing my team (no jaquizz (i have martin too), evans, or devante parker).

Probably the best week to start CJA as Jamaal Charles or whoever have yet to make inroads towards his starting RB gig in Denver.

Also everyone loves the cook kid in Minnesota, and I'd personally want a cpl weeks to see how Brady uses his weapons in a post edelman world b4 I start fringier NE WR/RBs over more established guys (read: not having to start NE guys)

Sit Abdullah. He neither catches passes, nor finds the end zone. In 18 career games, he has 30 catches and a total of 4 touchdowns.

You will be very disappointed in him in short order.

So are you down on Abdullah just in general? I thought the general book on him was if he's healthy and can hold on to the ball he has a lot of upside.

For the season it's Mixon and it's not close.

For week 1 I guess I'd say Forte or Riddick depending on if it's PPR but I'll defer to Chus.

If. If the queen had balls, she would be king.

Season.

0.5 PPR

I have Mixon and McFadden

The rest are available. Trying to decide if McFadden is worth a spot or should I take a flyer on one of the others.

I'd keep McFadden. He is going to be very valuable for six games.

Mixon is tough. his terrible offensive line, position competition, and HC's reluctance to play rookies over underachieving veterans are pretty major red flags, but MANY seem to agree he will eventually be given the chance to shine this year. Just hard telling if that'll be in week 3 or week 15.

Mike Florio said that Zeke may not miss any time this season. If that's the case, McFadden is completely useless.

Mixon will get his chance. Jeremy Hill is always hurt, and isn't very good.

Stay away from 30 yr old RBs with a ton of mileage.

Wow...I thought the 6 games was upheld? Is there another appeals process or something?

Listen to the 10:00 hour from S&P yesterday. Florio can explain it far better than I can.

I don't know the Zeke stuff too well but my latest understanding is that he will definitely miss 6 games this year. If he does, McFadden obviously vaults up into pretty valuable territory. If Zeke doesn't miss any time you're obviously right, but I haven't read anyone credible yet who says that is likely.

Mike Florio is a clown.

The suspension was upheld, yet he is playing in week one.

More often than not, yes. A broken clock is right twice a day.

Zeke is going the Brady route. He'll probably serve the 6 next year.


He could get hurt or do another stupid thing though.

Jamison Crowder with a possible injury or Zay Jones at a Flex position?

I have Baldwin and Crabtree at WR.

Other flex options include: Charcandrick West and C.J. Prosise

Crowder, especially in a PPR.

Yes its a PPR. Thanks for reinforcing my gut. I think if Kirk plays balls out for a new contract then Crowder could have a 100 reception season easy.

Chris Hogan NEP or Emmanual Sanders DEN

I'm leaning Hogan to have a rooting interest in the game tonight.

Regarding McFadden - how long do you hang on to him if you drafted. Think they set a court date or will it be never ending appeals.

It should be clear by next week. Either the suspension will start or he'll get the order of protection (or whatever it's called)

I think he will lead the league in receptions. I love him in PPR leagues.
