Michael Carter, Kimani Vidal, Hassan Haskins my options on waivers. I want to try and get Carter and Vidal, but not sure who to drop.

Who is most to least droppable of the following:

RJ Harvey
Nick Chubb
Romeo Doubs
Isiah Pacheco
Caleb Williams

Assuming you are set at QB, Caleb Williams and then Pacheco.

I wonder if it'll be Haskins, not Vidal in LA. Vidal was on the practice squad before the Harris injury while Haskins was on active roster. I also read that Vidal can't pass block and so that limits his usage. I also think LA might bring in a free agent potentially. That's going to be a messy backfield, especially with such a banged-up offensive line.

Brashard Smith getting more and more involved in the KC offense would be a good pick up for deep leagues or banged up rosters.

Everything I've read says Haskins is the guy. He's my target this week. Maybe a contingency bid for Vidal because we really don't know exactly how it's going to work out.

To OP, I'm dropping Caleb Williams if he's a 2nd QB on your bench. That's primarily because I'm a firm believer of not carrying a 2nd QB (if a one QB league), with some rare exceptions.

fellow Jameson owners...

is it getting near drop time? It will be tough to hold onto him thru the big bye week -- week 8

which includes the Lions bye
oh no

I started with pretty low waiver priority and been patient. Missed on some obvious waiver claims due to priority (e.g. Woody Marks last week) so by now I've climbed all the way up to #2. ..but week 6 seems too late.

The Vidal vs Hassan guess/decision seems too risky to waste high priority and/or drop anyone I currently have rostered. Neither one is nearly as talented as Najee or Omarion and I bet it's going to be a committee for LAC anyway. I think I'll hold my priority in case someone makes a mistake or is forced to drop someone good at some point. Week 8 has six teams on bye. Might be some decent bench upgrades being dropped at that point.

I'm intrigued by Brashard Smith, Kendre Miller, and Kyle Monangai as stashes, Brashard and Monangai could take over on their teams, and Kendre is a solid handcuff, but I'm already holding some solid handcuffs in Charbonnet and Brian Robinson Jr.

Kendre Miller is the top non waiver bid target for you. He is getting more carries then Kamara. And Kamara seems to be slowing down. Saints play Fast which is going to be even tougher on the older back.

I dropped Jameson last week and it felt great

I think that is bad news for Chase and Higgins. Flacco was terrible. Barely targeted any of the WRd for Cleveland.

True, but Browning can't even throw the ball to his own team

So would Fannin be a good pickup to replace Strange who's now banged up?

Dowdle saved me and got me a win last week.. but with Chuba returning, is he drop-able? I kinda want to wait a bit and see his usage after performance in week 5, but as noted above, I'm also looking at Kendre Miller on waivers.

Also, anyone else holding Brian Robinson Jr? Should be great trade bait to the CMC owner, but I don't foresee any good deals, either 2 for 1 or 1-1, for both of us when I look at his roster.. the way CMC is getting used so far and his history, it seems like BRJ becoming a starter at some point is inevitable.

I think if you already hold Dowdle, you should keep him. Perhaps his strong performance will force the coaching staff to give him a bigger role even when Hubbard is healthy. I'd wait and see at least.

1-4 and have dealt with injuries to Xavier Worthy, Joe Burrow, and Omarion Hampton. I also have Ja'Marr, so the Burrow injury is a double whammy. What a freaking year.

Yes. Flacco had a decent o-line and a really good run game. The statue now has the worst o-line and a very bad run game. Packers could set the sacks per pass play record this week.

That or Chase Brown catches 15 check downs and will henceforth be known as "check down Brown"

The Browns' OL is bad, too.

They are also in the bottom third of the league in rushing yards per attempt and rushing yards per game.

I am sure he will get sacked a bunch and won't have a good time, but Jake Browning straight up is not someone who should be playing in the NFL.

I think the Browns run game with Judhkins is a different level then pre Judhkins. He has really only played 2 games.

Fair point on Browns o-line being worse then decent
However, the Bengals are historic levels of bad. They dont have a linemen with a off grade in the top 100! https://www.profootballnetwork.com/best-offensive-lines-nfl-rankings/

The Baltimore defense is still owned in 62% of yahoo leagues.. WTF? They have scored negative fantasy points almost every week. I guess it shows that many people play in these leagues and yet don't really pay any attention to what they're doing or don't care.

Gross. Maybe I am just coping because I drafted Chase first overall.

But Browning is one of the worst QBs I have ever watched in the NFL.

Big announcement on Yahoo:
Quote:

For teams rostering the Tennessee or Arizona defenses, we have made a scoring adjustment for the play resulting in an interception, fumble and recovery for a touchdown:
  • Tennessee DEF will be credited with a TD.
  • Arizona DEF will be charged with 16 points allowed instead of 22.
  • Lockett is not credited with an offensive TD.
See Yahoo Help or reach out to Customer Care with any questions.

Not sure about the logic on this, but I guess it's that after the interception, the offensive & defensive roles switched, so the fumble recovery TD counts as a defensive TD?

Net result is my opponent (who had Arizona D/ST) gets +2 due to fewer points allowed. Fortunately I still won!

In my league I am 1-4, but only 4 pts from being the top scorer. Keep facing the #1 weekly scorers and falling a few points short. Becoming uncanny.

That is pretty dumb. It is one play. The defense was on the bench. If I was commissioner and it actually changed an outcome id revert it to what it should be.

Also reason number 57 that yahoo sucks.

I'm thinking of submitting this trade. I do not have any WRs (I mean Ridley may be my best one right now). Those I drafted have not panned out whatsoever.

I give up: Bijan Robinson, Elic Ayomanor

I would get: Nico Collins, Quentin Johnston

I'm currently 1-4 in our league and dead ass last. So I'm pretty desperate to change things up. I figure if I lose the next 3 or so, I'm pretty well out of any chance this year. So I need to try and make a move now.

Thoughts??

That's brutal. I was top three in scoring two of the weeks that I lost and the other two, I lost Xavier Worthy or Burrow in the first half. Now I finally grabbed a win, but lose Omarion Hampton.

I would not give Bijan up without getting a greater return, especially with him being post bye and Nico having a bye this week.

What does the rest of the squad look like?
