Pinesprings 7 Posted November 9, 2019 Looks very questionable. Monday night game too. Yippee. Ross Dwelley is his backup...yawn. need clarity but I'm sure we won't hear anything until Monday night. What are you folks doing with him. Im done in one league. 2-7 but 8-1 in my second league. I have kittle in both. Hope they rest him for the playoff push. rambling.....apologies 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makindollaz 40 Posted November 9, 2019 With him being on Monday night, I’ll probably just sit him, and hope OJ Howard gets me a few points. In the league I have Kittle I don’t “think” I’ll need him because I’m playing a pretty bad team this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,452 Posted November 9, 2019 Don’t see Kittle playing, and if he does , he would be limited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 9, 2019 This isn't good, I have him in 2/3 of my leagues and one of them has very narrow benches. Not sure I even have room for a backup TE short of dropping a good player from my roster into the player pool. With two teams in 1st place, one at 9-0 and the other at 7-2, I may just risk the "nil" from him in score column. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EternalShinyAndChrome 2,493 Posted November 9, 2019 For me, I don't expect him to play so I picked up Josh Hollister (SEA - TE) just in case. That way I can play one or the other depending upon his final status on Monday since they both play Monday night. I had the option to pickup Ross Dwelley (SF - TE) instead of Hollister, but I think that if Kittle is out then SF will rely even more on their run game and Dwelley will not really be involved that much.

Good strategy, i'm actually thinking about re-arranging for a Gesicki addition, feeling like he and Fitz have some good vibes working. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ehlana 25 Posted November 9, 2019 Not sure what I wanna do. I think I'm going to sit Kittle and play TE TD roulette but not really sure. There are options on the ww including Howard, Brate, Jonnu Smith, Hockensen, Cook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMMensaMind 459 Posted November 10, 2019 I'm going with Dwelley. He looked decent to me last week, with 4 receptions in limited playing time. It was b/t Hollister and Dwelley for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had the same choice and initially went with Hollister because I think SF is going to rely even more on their run game with Coleman and Breida, and that Dwelley would be an after thought. Then Jared Cook became available in my league and I picked him up instead and dropped Hollister. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, now the issue for me is wondering if I should have Coleman in my lineup (he was benched for his 40 point outburst, and then started for is 6 point explosion ) or if I should start Christian Kirk, which I'm itching to do (other WRs are Julio and Godwin). I know SEA isn't what they used to be, but it feels like roulette playing the Coleman/Breida game. Either that, or sit Marlon Mack or Jacobs, and I can't see that.

Well, if it were me, I would be starting Coleman. I believe SEA is pretty bad - or at best mediocre - against RBs. I'm not big on Christian Kirk at all because that ARI offense isn't very good. I think your other WR can cover just fine. Yeah, and I would definitely NOT be sitting Mack or Jacobs. But, keep in mind, now that I've said all this the EXACT opposite will probably happen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, Mack is the only consideration, as Jacobs already put up 20 v LAC on TNF, but I have that same opposite problem. I've had both Coleman AND Godwin on the bench when they put up their 40burgers. One other item of note: it's a PPR league, and TB is able to defend RBs, but not WRs - and I think ARI can score a ton in the air against them. I THINK IIRC that its the highest projected point output of the weekend. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I'm still leading my league as a result of a solid lineup with really good depth, but I'm getting stung with having difficulty selecting my starting lineup - and I just traded McLaurin, McCoy and Olson for Kittle. And now we know what happened to Kittle. I should be 16-2 instead of 14-4. We'll see if this decision costs me this week. It's close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also had Ertz and I traded him for Devanta Freemen (need RB help) last week AFTER it was reported Kittle would be fine. So not only does Kittle NOT play, Freeman got injured today and was out the entire 2nd half. I f'n hate this game sometimes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 11, 2019 I started Hokenson in one league, which looked like a complete bust for a bit, but he ended with 3/47 for 7.7 pts. Starting Witten in another. Wasn't risking going into Monday with no options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pinesprings 7 Posted November 14, 2019 Praying this is just a bone bruise contusion thing, not anything ligament wise. The MRI supposedly came back clean. The injury happened Halloween and if he sits out this week and plays SNF vs Packers that will be around 25 days of rest/rehab/therapy whatever. Sure hope this doesn't turn into a Davante thing. Need him for playoffs full go week 14. fingers crossed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinesprings 7 Posted November 21, 2019 Good Gawd.....he comes back in to play October 31st after the injury and still is out. geez. 24 days off since injury. Looks like a Davante thing.....this stinks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
