Dynasty Auction - Standard scoring
No PPR

Start 1 QB
DAK at Browns or Purdy vs Jets

Start 3 WRs
Tyreek vs Jaguars
Mike Evans vs Commanders
Garrett Wilson at 49ers
Jamarr Chase vs Pats - Limited plays

I’ll try to be active on this board this year.
Playing with decent success for 20+ years.

Dak

Top 3 receivers
 
might be dumb or just recency bias

Pick 1
.25 pts per completion
Josh Allen vs JAX ( rain?)
Kyler vs DET

Leaning Kyler just based on likely game script. JAX want to run and do does BUF

Flex 1
Full PPR
Cam Akers @ MIN, Demarcus Robinson @ SF, McConkey @ PIT, Rico Dowdle @ BAL Keon Coleman vs JAX, Devaughn Vele @ TB (8 catches week 1), pick up Dortch.

Leaning Akers based on volume but considering Dortch since Lions are terrible vs the slot
 
I’d go with Kyler. Lions DC has a horrible track record against mobile quarterbacks. Goff is also likelier to push Murray to throw than Lawrence is Allen.
 
I‘ve been screwed so many times by injuries, especially hamstring ones, that I couldn’t stomach playing Dortch, especially when there are viable alternatives.
 
I‘d worry that Ogunbowale cuts into Akers‘ pass-catching especially, making Akers a pretty touchdown-dependent option— because what good does, say, 70 yards and a catch do? I‘d look harder into the healthy wide receiver options

Right. Matchups not great but 70 yards and a catch feels pretty good right now lol. Normally Demarcus Robinson would feel okay but that Rams OL is decimated. It’s all dart throws for me. That’s why I even mentioned Vele and matchups not bad.

Whittington
Thielen
Adonai Mitchell
Christian Watson…
Iosivas

The answer could just be on my bench already but they all feel pretty low ceiling/floor plays with Keon maybe having a higher ceiling

Glad none of my decisions mattered. Nabors/Kyren/Gibbs all showed up.

My opponent also used $11 FAAB on Jauan Jennings but didn’t play him 😂

Ended up going Josh Allen/Keon Coleman.
 
Probably should’ve asked this earlier

Full PPR

Roll with Dowdle @ NYG or wait to see if Addison is active @ GB

Looks like Addison will play but how much? Nailor not available so I’d have to plug a random like I was trying to last week. Nailor is still on someone else’s roster.

I think I’m forced to go Dowdle sadly lol

With Osborn gone and Hock hurt there is so much upside for Addison and room for him to be a more consistent performer. That being said if you don’t like taking chances with injuries then Dowdle should be fine against a vulnerable Giants run D. Dowdle is catching passes and he‘s emerging as the better runner than washed-up Zeke

That’s the main thing is not wanting to take the chance on the injury.

At best I’d be hoping for Keon Coleman, or picking up Christian Watson… Michael Wilson could be suitable? Lazard….

Just a lot more uncertainty

With McBride hurt and Wilson the second-leading wide receiver target going against Commanders secondary? Suitable? There’s a huge ceiling there
 
That being said Packers could also be a super annoying team to go against. With their conservative run-oriented game under Willis they’re well-equipped to own TOP

Yeah. No telling if he’s on a snap count or if Darnold just turns back into a pumpkin 🎃

Hoping for the best in Dowdle!
I’ll be happy if they fully commit to him this week.
 
1/2 PPR

Hubbard @ CHI
or
Moss vs BAL
I'm all about Hubbard this week. Way to attack Chicago is on the ground and out of the backfield with passes. Brooks isn't ready yet, Sanders is barely seeing much work. Baltimore gives up the third fewest points to RBs this year, game script could be a problem, and it looked pretty close to a 50-50 timeshare between Moss and Chase Brown.
 
Disgusting.

Full PPR

Start Puka vs MIN (limited snaps), Rico Dowdle @ SF, or Ricky Pearsall vs DAL
I'm not sure that Puka's snap count per se presents a valid objection against him considering the persistent uncertainty of Dowdle's usage rate relative to Elliott's. But the uncertain state of Puka's physical health might. Pearsall I think definitely needs more time to get into the flow of things. 49ers have been relatively vulnerable to conceding catches to running backs (seventh-most receiving yards to RBs allowed; Kenneth Walker for example had eight receptions), so I think Dowdle is the most certain option

Same reasoning my friend gave. I still went Puka 2 minutes before the game bc I just thought upside was too great and I’m playing to win!
 
Devin Singletary vs Commanders, Trayveon Williams vs Raiders, Julius Chestnut vs Pats, or Miles Sanders vs Saints?

PPR.

Yes i‘m down bad lol
 
Titans. Gotta roll against Pederson and Mac until they show otherwise. Titans gave away the ball on consecutive possessions in the first Q that gave Washington short field TDs and put them in chase mode for 3 quarters.
 
Choose 3…half point PPR

Chubba Hubbard @ PHI
Kyron Williams vs BUF
Isaac Guerendo vs CHI
Jayden Reed @ DET
Jordan Addison vs ATL
 
Choose 3…half point PPR

Chubba Hubbard @ PHI - Tough matchup as Philly is 4 fewest in RB points allowed. Game script will be a negative and Hubbard has been getting fewer passes lately.
Kyron Williams vs BUF - Still the bell cow and Bills can be run on
Isaac Guerendo vs CHI - Decent matchup and its wheels up for Guerendo now as the #1 back.
Jayden Reed @ DET - Still the top guy in GB, Lions can be thrown on, Dobbs may or may not be ready.
Jordan Addison vs ATL - Has been getting more looks in recent weeks, could be the go to if Terrell clamps on JJ. Or they could do the Belichick move and single Terrell on Addison and double JJ. Not sure.
In order I like
Williams
Guerendo
Reed
Addison/Hubbard toss up
 
Choose 3…half point PPR

Chubba Hubbard @ PHI
Kyron Williams vs BUF
Isaac Guerendo vs CHI
Jayden Reed @ DET
Jordan Addison vs ATL

1) Williams. Volume, nose for end zone, and pass-catching.
2) Guerendo. Number one role should be all his.
3) Reed. Good history vs. Lions. Doubs might not play but Lions are also number one against tight ends. If Jacobs is worn down (currently listed as 'questionable') then Reed might also get some extra rushes.


After seeing what Falcons pass rush did last week, I'd be nervous with Addison because Darnold whose pass protection is poor could have a bad game like Herbert did, meaning few passing yards to go around with a lot those being eaten by JJ obviously. Jonathan Brooks' apparently increasing role likewise creates uncertainty for Hubbard, who didn't catch passes last week. Hard to say what repeats itself from week to week.
 
Have Patrick Taylor on roster and deciding between him or either Bucky or KWalker, who are both iffy with injuries.

It the FUKKIN PLAYOFFS
 
What are folks doing for kicker? I'have Bass planned for this week, but I'm seeing around 15 mph and rain. Weather also looks ugly for Lutz in Cincinnati. Nick Folk is injured.

Thinking Daniel Carlson at Saints or Grupe at home versus Raiders? Maybe Karty vs Cardinals, but Rams have been more aggressive on 4th, haven't they? What are you guys, who don't have an auto-start kicker, planning?
 
Late notice. Any advice appreciated. Start 2 of these. DJ Moore, Jonnu. Garrett Wilson, Jalen McMillan. Thanks
