You see Njigba only having short-term value (with Lockett) until Metcalf returns?

Hopkins

Definitely Richardson

Thoughts on fantasy relevance for Deandre Hopkins, now that he's on the Chiefs? Worth dropping Smith-Njigba for? My gut says no. While he is definitely on a better team, the footage of him I saw early in the season was definitely not "prime" Hopkins over the past few years. However, lack of any real WR competition and Mahomes needing someone to throw to, and needing another deep threat is a consideration.

I'll see if he's still available tomorrow...probably not...I know of two teams that will likely pounce on him:)

I have to drop a player to make room for a defense (I temporarily dropped it to make a waiver add...and give time to decide on who ultimately to drop): QB - Prescott/Smith RB - Henry/Montgomery/Bigsby/White/Pollard/Moss WR - Chase/Nabers/Higgins/Smith-Njigba/Olave TE - Likely Of those it's down to Moss or Smith-Njigba...I'm leaning toward Moss because he is now a clear back seat (for now) to Brown. Smith-Njigba may see more action with Metcalf injured. Thoughts? Geno Smith is even an option too?

I'm leaning towards Moss but let me know if this sways any opinion at all: If I drop Smith...and later needed a QB (i.e. he gets picked up by someone else...very possible) Tua (supposedly coming back...but is he trustworthy) and Maye are available and seemingly viable options. Likewise...I just looked...Wilson "might" become usable at some point and Carr should be coming back (and has weapons). If I drop Moss...someone quickly gave up on Tracy so I could grab him if I gained an additional spot back. I'll probably drop Moss tonight unless compelling reason not too...and grab either KC or Baltimore defense.

For this weekend, how would you rank these defenses: Philly (@NY) Indy (vs MIA) WASH (vs CAR)

The good news...as you can see by the recommendations thus far...and all of your options have upside. I would rank them Jeudy, Wilson, Pierce.

Mostert getting healthier and on bye...though Dolphins won't have a chance unless Tua returns, stays healthy, and restores the passing game. Jacksonville isn't getting better but Bigsby appears to be close to supplanting Etienne. Hold onto Mostert or make a try (I probably won't get it:)) to drop for Bigsby?

I concur.

Geno Smith, Baker Mayfield, or Justin Fields?

Which of these two would you stash on bench...Z. White or B. Irving?

Done....thanks for confirming my thoughts. Now watch White go off:)

To be honest, all of those picks are somewhat even...but unless you read that Deebo is going to be significantly limited, I would still go with him. Shaheed and Thomas are boom/bust, and Allen is also just returning back after a while.

For the reasons you mentioned...although I think you'll be fine with either...I would go with Daniels this week.

Yep...Pickens.

What about Mostert vs. B. Allen ROS? I have Mostert...sitting in injured spot obviously...Braelon Allen, T. Chandler, Gus Edwards, and Mattison are available...potential?

I have Tua in IR spot...but is he even worth keeping...I don't know if I could even trust him if/when he comes back. I have Dak...for a backup it might be better to drop Tua and pick up Geno Smith or Sam Darnold?

I went ahead and dropped him for Geno.

That's a tough one...my gut tells me to go Burrow though.

With the news that Hollywood Brown is likely done (surgery)...which of these receivers would you recommend as a bench stash (ROS): Mooney Palmer Downs Pierce D. Robinson is also a possibility...but I assume he fades away as soon as soon as Nucua returns.

White (because I need him to stay the lead back:))

I'm leaning on using a waiver priority to replace Schultz with Likely (slim pickings left at TE). Likely is #2 (behind Andrews) but seems to have chemistry with Lamar. I know he won't repeat Week 1 performance but Schultz is now #4 behind Collins, Diggs, and Dell...and possibly even Mixon. Thoughts?

Who would you use for Week 1? Leave link to yours.
