ATL’s dst best week so far was in W1; around 12 points. Only 1 other week around 10 points. It does sound like they have a good spot this week vs. TN playing inexperienced qbs, but I’d rather stick with a better unit, such as the 49ers.

Yes to Jefferson. Vikings have a nice schedule coming up…they could win out a spot to the playoffs. No reason for them (and Jefferson) to take their foot off the gas.

Dionte should secure a decent floor of points (10-12) in full ppr…more if he scores a td. I’d probably play Aiyuk over Davis.

Bagent

Agree with weepaws. Mixon. He’ll probably get a few more touches than Cook as well.

Ha ha…it also seems that Hurts feeds in the current week, whoever was crying on the sideline about not getting the ball from the previous week. Last week Smith was bitching. He’ll probably catch 25 balls. OK, not really, but he should be good. Can understand what is a difficult call to make - but would pick Smith.

50/50. I’d probably choose based on consensus Rankings: this site & others.

Nico. He’ll get plenty targets. Esp if Higgins remains.a gametime decision….those ribs probably still hurt; will be interesting to see if he finishes the game (assuming he plays) after taking a few hits.

In full-PPR, I must start 4 of: Waddle (vs.Panthers), Kirk (vs Indy), BHall (vs. Pitt), Downs (@ Jax), Aiyuk (@ Browns), GabeDavis (vs Giants). This is a bit less a ‘start’ question than it is a question of which player(s) are likely to explode or implode. Projections all have these 6 between 10-16 points. Any here who i should realllllly like this week? Any to fade? Or will they all score exactly 13.75 points each?

This for sure…. That said, i’d not choose to drop any of them, at least for this week, unless you can do much better and/or until more info develops. A sort-of order in which i’d keep. 1) Sanders. Clearly the main option…when returning to full health. 2) Roschon. With Herbert out, I’d like to see what the Bears do with him; he’s probably an OK flex in w7 & w8 with some nice matchups on deck. 3) EmariDemarc. Find out what you got this week. 4) Spears. Supremely talented; needs a DH injury or trade to be anything better than a flex. 5) MacLaughlin. Probably in a x3 timeshare but may get to a better split if Perine falls flat. A nice high-end rb3 if another JWill injury.

Yes to holding (& starting, this week) Logan Thomas. I think the others can probably be streamed as needed. Probably not a ‘must hold’ there, esp if there is another decent player worth rostering.

Spears

I would play MBrown, if active, over Foreman.

Just checking: is ‘Bain’: “Bijan” or “Brian” ? If Brian - then a big YES to go get Collins. And, with respect, I disagree with the list chochoking put up. Those are all fine players to roster - but I would much rather acquire Collins. He is (so far) a top-10 wr.

Yes to Lamar this week. Several talking heads saying that this is the ‘Zay Flowers break-out week.’ Maybe Lamar tosses some yards & td’s in W6.

Pollard & Mostert for sure, based on volume & potential to score. Kamara & Kyren a bit closer…might boil down to td’s. Kamara may catch a few more balls but have less yardage. Yikes…will guess Kyren is better this week.

Yes. Definitely Walker. Mostert & Swift probably a closer call but Mostert should get more opportunities with the ball and more attempts near the goalline.

Not over Keenan Allen. He should start in your line-up. Not over DJ Moore either. Only 1 ‘bad’ game this season (W1) and is on fire the past 2 weeks. Is close between DHop & Kirk - but i think I’d go DHop. He’ll 100% get more targets than Kirk. Kirk has the better qb….

Agreed; tough call. Maybe base your decisions vs your opponent this week? IE: if the matchup is pretty even, go with picks you think have the highest floor. If you are projected to lose badly, go with some players who might explode. I’d play Higgins if he starts. Shaheed & Jameson & EMoore could all blow up; and could get you 0-3 points. The others will get you points for sure. Maybe even better than average with a td. Of these, i like Akers & Samuel best.

Yes to Nico. Cleveland D plays zone. Aiyuk is much better vs. man-on-man…much less so vs. zone defenders.

LaPorta.

I’d rather play DHop over KJOsborne. There is no reason DHop should not have another fine game like he did last week. Cant say i’m sold on Osborne. @Addison, Hockenson - and - Brandon Powell (Minn) might get some play this week too. He’s good. Not saying KJ is a bad start…just saying that DHop is probably better. And: like others, i would not fade Henry. He should be just fine.

Tough choice. It’s close, but I’d gamble on Olvae.

Burrow/Chase

Josh Downs; Indy.
