It's totally roster/league dependent.

If I'm not competing, I want the points off my team. I'd prefer to go get Nabers as an example.

I won't fault people that want to use the production he is providing, but I'd also caution that I think he is way overproducing his usage.

The Philosopher @ffphilosopher.fantasynowplus.com · 16h

And yes, I think he'll produce. I'm not saying he's bad, but paying WR7/8 prices right now does not seem like a winning strategy.

It does to me. No matter Jefferson's surrounding cast, he is getting the volume for his talent to produce.

Egbuka has outproduced... Sterling Shepard? A returning from injury Chris Godwin?

It's not like he's putting up Puka target shares either...

The Philosopher @ffphilosopher.fantasynowplus.com · 16h

Tommy knows.

I've been banging the drum to sell high on Egbuka for a few weeks now. The window stays open because "the injury is all that stopped him".

Is it more likely that Egbuka is the next Justin Jefferson or that he's good and was the best option Baker had to throw to without Evans/Godwin?

Tommy Blair @fftommyb.bsky.social · 17h

Knowing full well I could look like an idiot I think it would be wise to trade Egbuka for Tet+ on rebuilders and contenders alike. The table is set for cascading trades with the market disparity right now.

Jonathan Taylor had a big game, but I stand by labeling him as 'Bad Chalk'

17 carries for 66 yards
3 catches for 20 yards

Without the 3 TDs (which were 1-, 3-, and 6-yard scores)...

11.6 points at $8000.

Let's get it!

I hadn't seen the David Montgomery narrative for this week, but it sets up for a storybook game for Montgomery. I'd shy away from Gibbs a bit and add extra D-Mont.

What is the Hatch Act, and how does it impact the Obamacare death panels?

Purely a vibes thing, but I lowkey think Derrick Henry might be a huge buy.
