If Zeke goes off tonight i'm looking at my first L of the season. Somewhat bittersweet as I tacked on 156 points (league high)against my opponents 131 in the first matchup. I'm sitting at 129 this week and hes down 25 points.The bears D is the only thing keeping me alive this week. Good luck to all BP'ers.

Lineup has changed drastically with free agent pickups.

Mahomes (week 2 free agent)
Gurly
Gordon
Hopkins
Theilen
Philip Lindsey on the flex
J.Cook
Bears D


I just might shit my pants if the trash INT mahomes threw before half cost me a win.
It's been a terrible year for my TE choices. I've had J.Cook,O.J howard and J.Graham but have only broke double digits,once. BLAHH

Been a terrible year for TE's period in terms of depth. I'm lucky AF to have Ertz. Already had two trade requests for him.

Speaking of - working on a deal for David Johnson which would solidify my RB2 spot. I'll be hard to beat with that set. Sitting at 205 point in ppr with my defense still to play this week ( cowboys) so I'm feeling good right now.

Just turned Tyrell Williams' stupid and unsustainable hot streak + Golden Tate being on a new offense, brand new QB and facing a difficult back half schedule into a trade for David Johnson.

May have just secured myself a championship if 'Zona gets him those 20 touches a game.

edit: He hasn't accepted the trade yet but by the tone of the text messages... I feel it's coming.

Indeed,there just isn't much production at all from the TE spot. I ended up winning by about 5 points to move to 9-0. He had Kelce which is one of the two TE's that actually can light it up. I'd take that trade all day long simply because there is so much more value at the flex spot for an rb (even though I know you are filling the rb2 spot). Gurly and Gordon have kept me ahead this entire FF season. Pass catching rb's are a FF dream.

need a TE for this week since i think Kelce and the chefs are on a bye

I have full intentions of dumping Jared Cook for the 3rd time this season and picking up O.J howard for the 2nd time this season. From a distance it almost looked like the raiders have nobody else to throw to so Cook,who is legit athletic,would be a great TE to have...wrong. The raiders cannot do anything right.

I need some advice from fellow BP'ers. After pulling this week out of my ass I am in deep shit this week. Both my starting WR's are on byes..my flex spot is on a bye and my kicker is on a bye. I do have Brandon Cooks and Golden Tate,which wouldn't be my first choices,but I don't really have any other choices..Of course,I am playing the 2nd best team in the league. I am thinking about adding James White and dropping Mark Ingram. Ingram is worthless,and i'd much rather chance White at my flex spot then him.

Here is my question.......I absolutely hate starting a newly traded player (tate) without giving him a week or so to adjust. I have a chance to pickup Calvin Ridley and unassing Golden Tate. Inspecting the situation further,I notice that the eagles play the cowboys this week while ATL(Ridley) plays the browns. Does anyone think this would be a bad move?

My starting lineup would have drastic changes with these moves for this week only.

Mahomes
Gurly
Gordon
B.Cook
C.Ridley
O.J Howard
J.White

Even my damn kicker is on a bye and my backup WR Emmanuel Sanders is as well. The only other option besides Ridley that I definite could get would be Sammy Watkins.

Opponents Lineup

Ryan
J.Connor
A.Kammara
A.Brown
O.Beckum
Gronk
N.Chubb

My team as of tomorrow, PPR.

Cam Newton QB
Run CmC RB1
David Johnson RB2
Michael Thomas WR1
Julian Edleman WR2
Calvin Ridley WR3
Zach Ertz TE 1

Flex options of Vance McDonald, Adam Humphries & Snead. Streaming defenses has been working pretty well for me this year.

You're right, of course. It's just that last year was so bad and this feels like vindication. I came in last... last... last place. For the first time in 10 years. I have to drive around with a pink fucking license plate cover that is VERY visible on my car because it's a shade of silver. I'm driving a Cadillac with a god damn pink license plate indicating I came in last in my fantasy league. Once October was over the breast cancer awareness excuse flew out the window. So I'll take this moment to gloat then sacrifice my hubris to the fantasy God's before something bad happens.
