Yeah I agree, it would be incredibly cruel to drop him when Jameis is back when they’re flying.

But when he is back.... OJ Howard is my starter : )

Oh. That wasn't opinion, that was a statement put out by TB. It's now Fitzmagic's team.

Ugh.... so apparently I'm bad at fantasy football and no one should ever listen to my advice lol

(And I also dont take my own advice -- started Bortles and Cole this week, in lieu of Russ and Adrian Peterson)

And of course, Jordy Nelson shows up after I told ya to drop him (hopefully you didn't listen to me)

Made a few questionable decisions this week.

Same here... Unfortutnatly I would probably make them again but who saw tommy sucking miserably against the lions?(started brady(9) over Ryan(43))

or AP putting up 34 points after not breaking 10 2 weeks in a row... that is fantasy football for you.

Indeed

Imagine all the people who drafted Bell, Fournette, Cook, and David Johnson right now....
bupkis essentially after 3 weeks for your first round RB

After 3 weeks, in one fantasy league, I am still 2nd highest scoring team (3rd isn't even close really) and have 1 win and 2 losses.

stupid fantasy football.
good thing the season is young and I have a good waiver spot

I'm still in first place thanks to Melvin Gordon, Ju-Ju Smith-Schuster, Royce Freeman, Brandin Cooks and Tyreek Hill, but I barely squeaked out a victory this week. We had a double header and I went 1-1 to make my record 3-1 overall. Leonard Fournette is killing me though. I spent a 2nd rounder on him and he's giving me nothing. I was sure he was going to play against the Titans, but no. My QB's suck, so I need every point I can get. Leonard better play this week, because my opponent has Pat Mahomes and he's been on fire.

Tyreek Hill is a monster and Hyde has been decent. Landry has been good except for the fact he has no touchdowns and Fournette has barely seen the field this year. I don't know about this one.

It's a PPR. Hill has seen his targets drop each week, Landry should only see increased use as Baker takes over. Landry has 20 less points on the season than Hill but 10 more the past 2 weeks. 

As for Hyde, he's been solid for sure. My other starting RB is Gurley and I have Ingram waiting to come off the bench next week so Fournette is more of a future outlook for the playoff push. 

So I'm either going to make out well if Fournette has the production I expect, or it will blow up in my face lol

I've had Fournette and so far, I wished I didn't draft him. I should've taken Kareem Hunt, who went with the next pick.

Fournette misses far too many games, i'm glad I didn't draft him.

I'm in a bit of a mess to be honest at the moment. I have McCaffrey and Peterson on a BYE week so that leaves me with Blount and a questionable Dalvin Cook.

Need someone off waivers badly but there's no one about with it being a 12 team league.

3-0 here in my ESPN PPR league.

I picked up Calvin Ridley and John Brown off waivers yesterday so I'm pretty excited. Crossing my fingers they do well.

Good work! I told my mate last week to pick up Ridley because he’s struggling in the league with injuries but he fell to someone else haha! 30 odd points last week...

Christian Kirk is another dark horse now I think.

Thanks man. We do a FAAB Budget starting with $100 each in our league. So I bid $13 for Ridley and $6 for Brown. I'm still really wanting to get rid of Amari Cooper. Rest of my team now:

QB: Philip Rivers
RB: Le'Veon Bell, James Conner, Alex Collins, Lamar Miller, Sony Michel
WR: Davante Adams, Amari Cooper, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Sammy Watkins, Nelson Agholor, Calvin Ridley, John Brown
TE: Rob Gronkowski
DEF: Bears
K: Harrison Butker

At least you stole Fournette in the 2nd bro....
I drafted him 9th overall in one league

As for the trade above.... idk
Personally, I wouldn't have traded Hyde and Hill for LF and Landry... but I get the reasoning.

I don't trust LF's health or the Browns to be consistent.

RB is the worst position outside of maybe TE for trying to fill off the waivers after week 2 or so (barring injury or surprise player showing up)

Nyheim Hines, Javorius Allen are a couple guys who could help ya out. Hines more PPR though and Allen is TD dependent but is a RZ vulture. I notice they are available in a lot of leagues.

Deeper waiver pulls and they are more a wing and a prayer
Chris Ivory (McCoy is coming back, but is still nursing a hammy, so they could split.) Theo Riddick, certainly its now Kerryon Johnson's team and RB job... but Riddick is still a passing option for Stafford and so in PPR leagues he might be worth a spot.

Otherwise, you may just have to keep your fingers crossed that Cook plays and Blount gets some RZ carries for the iggles. (and maybe eat an L)

How many RBs and WRs do you start (1 flex I assume?)
That's a very solid team for sure.

I went back to back RB's with Melvin Gordon in the 1st and Leonard Fournette in the 2nd. I was the 9th pick in a 12 team draft. I also added Royce Freeman late in the draft and he's been good for a touchdown a game, since Fournette has been out. Not many rushing yards, but the touchdowns have been keeping my head above water. Where I'm weak, is QB. I have Case Keenum and Joe Flacco, but I just picked up Baker Mayfield as well. Hopefully, I can catch lightning in a bottle, but I'm still starting Keenum this week. He has the most favorable matchup.
