I always lean towards my horses. Cook over Collins.

Cook is also more likely to get goal line carries, IMO.

Any thoughts on Travis Kelce, who had a terrible Week 1?

 

I was just offered Kelce for Rivers and Tevin Coleman, which seems like a slam dunk no brain move, especially since i still have:

QB: Ben R.

RB: Gurley, Mixon, Carson

TE: Only Seals-Jones

Hard pass on the Barkley for Johnson trade. The Cards offense is a dumpster fire and Johnson will get hurt again. You heard it here first.
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

It's one week. Wouldn't read anything into it. Just like I wouldn't spend a waiver spot on Ryan Fitzpatrick. 

 

I wouldn't make that trade. could play matchups with Rivers/Ben. But you aren't starting Coleman over those other 3 RBs and Seals-Jones had a high snap share, but not many targets at all.

I'd strongly lean towards making that trade.  You'll need someone to pair with Ben though as he sucks on the road most times.  Who is this guy's QBs?  Maybe you can get someone back in the deal.  Or who is available on waivers.  If there is a decent option to pair with Ben, I think it improves your roster.

I'm leaning towards making it. Just waiting to hear back from him. He's got Cam. I'm shocked he even wants Rivers frankly.

 

Not great options on FA but they include: Fitzpatrick, Keenum (probably the best), Dalton, Darnold, Trubisky, Bortles, Prescott, Manning.

Wait? You're giving up Kelce and Rivers to get Tevin Coleman? Not Kelce to get Rivers and Coleman?

Don't own either, but you can't bench Green in any format.

 

Maybe you can sit Mixon if you're deep at RB and have a better flex option.

I don't think Green is in the tier of playing against opponent and Ravens shut him down last year...generally I would agree but I just don't see him finding the endzone in this one.

All the weekly rankings I've seen are ranking Ben (v KC) as a top-5 QB this week, and Rivers (@Buf) on the back side of the QB1.  Am I crazy to be leaning Rivers?

Ben at home. Isn't he something like 8 fantasy points better than on the road on average over the last 3 years?
 

Gordon was also 15 for 64 on the day. So not that great. 4 and change. Conner isn't as good as he looked, so I'd guess that Ben and Brown end up having good days. 

 

I think Rivers will light it up as well. But if you have Roethlisberger isn't the whole point of doing so to start him at home?

I have Green and Ravens D. Always hate playing big fantasy guys against your defense.

So the guy I was trading with ended up adding Keenum so I thought our trade was obviously dead.

Somehow I ended up getting Kelce and Breida for T. Coleman and Stills. Safe to say I’m pumped.
