Crushed my matchup this week

Thinking of selling high on Henderson. He did good in the 2nd half but it’s a pass heavy offense and there’s no way he’ll retain this amount of snaps, I can see them easing Sony in. Add this up and you have a FLEX/RB3 option.

Or am I overreacting and is he a season long RB2? Still thinking of trying to trade for Ekeler somehow.

Got whooped this week and exactly what I feared happened. Gus done and mostert made it a cool 60 secs before getting hurt. I'm down to zeke, Gaskin, Sony michel, and Tony Jones Jr in my 10 man. I just dropped Sony michel for Kenyan drake

Mostert is out 2 months so will probably drop. I'm down 45 with Mark andrews left. Thinking about tanking and taking him out of the lineup and try to ensure I get least points this week to get top waiver for the SF backup. Smart move or no?

down 7 with Justin Tucker and Darren Waller left to play

so they'll score 6.5

was mad af about drafting Courtland Sutton and now he's looking like he'll actually end up a solid WR2 for me

(took him over DeVonta Smith too) man that was a dumbass pick

Same with Hock, I got him in all my leagues except my og dynasty one. I think he going to have a monster season.

As a weird energy believer guy, I wouldn't do it. What if that fool goes out and get 150 on 12 catches and 3 tds? Ravens have no options outside of him lol. Just take the L it's week 1 you will be fine.

Drop a bag on Elijah Mitchell off the FAs. He will be the #1 back from what I'm hearing. Thats the move imo. I got $75 for him because i have Sermon and I wanted the 9ers and Ravens running game (I have Gus too).

This is a straight waiver priority league not FAAB. So that's why I was thinking about tanking the game to make sure I get least points. only one other team has less but they have 2 players tonight. This way I can ensure I have top pick and can get him. I really need the help.

You right anything can happen with andrews tonight but odds of him dropping 50 are not in his favor.

sh1t man that's different lol... may have to tank. Let me ask is that normal in your league? Or would it cause controversy?

I feel like it's happened in the past. I'd say it's more strategic in the first week than any other week. I mean what are they gonna bi#ch about? I took the L on the week already. My team is clearly struggling and already down 2 starters. Gotta do what u gotta do right?

They might hate on the move but I don't think it would be an issue. I feel like it's a smart play when it's already a blow out

Eckler is about to have a down year. They are using him wrong. Swift is now Eckler.

He’s gotta be injured more than they’re letting on. He didn’t have a single target which tells me he can’t run routes and cut etc. He basically fell into the end zone for his rush TD.

So if Waller scores it hurts your defense?

That backfield is strange as hell and gives 0 fantasy guarantees. You want shares because it’s a great, run heavy offense but actually you don’t want shares because you can get burned anytime. Shanahan said there’s no hierarchy. Shaping up to be very unpredictable.

Keep an eye out for Kenneth Gainwell from Philly. He looks like he’s the RB2 there. Boston Scott was non existent yesterday.

Mostert such a bi#ch

It ain't that serious.

1-0 confirmed


its week 2 and I find myself tryna figure out yall backfield already. I drafted Sermon and Im first on waivers. Who TF is Elijah Mitchell

It ain't that serious.

sh1t is blowing me bruh...I got mostert and sermon. Mitchell is another rookie we drafted that looked nice but was fighting for the third spot...

Game starts and they say sermon wasn't ready and not top 3 back. I'm thinking ok they want to start vets...then they got Mitchell out there (another rookie)...not a good look. So now mostert hurt...you'd think that would open door for sermon but looks like mitchell..but then they're talking like hasty will get the bid over Mitchell

Wtf? I dont even know why I did it to myself again...going to be a headache all year

Just got that feeling imma blow this waiver on Elijah on for hasty to get the bulk of the carries. Did the same sh1t last yr but instead I grabbed McKinnon

You don't think the Mostert injury will force Shanahan to play Sermon? Whatever the issue was causing Sermon to be a healthy scratch in week 1 has to be over with now right?

Thats what you would think..but with Shanny bruh...nothing he does make sense when it comes to rbs. Even when I dont have fantasy backs I get pissed as a fan cause well have mostert or Breida or whoever get 7 yards a pop and then he sits their a$s for a whole quarter

Sermon was projected to take over as is so it would "seem" perfect scenario but they're acting like he aint ready and Mitchell is fast...our run blocking is good so they get good holes he can bust through like mostert.

They said sermon was benched because he just wasnt a top 3 back for the game. Can only hope it was some disciplinary sh1t theyre trying to cover up cause early in his career
