    Pryor just got 14 targets last week. Second to Antonio Brown. I would keep him around.

    Pryor just got 14 targets last week and double digits the week before. Second to Antonio Brown. I would keep him around. He is going to put up some points.

    I'd do the trade but it all depends on Tony Romo coming back or not.

    You can probably waiver Cole Beasely and get more production than Dez.

    Still trying to move Blount for a better WR (my WRs,: Hilton, Shepard, Williams, Lockett, Pryor). Now looking at next level down. A team is 0-3, has the following WRs: Green, Marvin Jones, Diggs, Landry, D Jackson (WAS). His RBs are McCoy, Bell, Langford, Yelton. Green and Jones are too high for Blount, would Diggs or Landry be enough of an improvement over what I have? Or would packaging Blount plus a WR not Hilton and Shepard, or a Blount plus Kenneth Dixon (who I added yesterday) be a package that might get me Green or Jones?

    He may not want to move anyone.

    He has a really good team despite being 0-3.

    Sounds like he's been unlucky with points scored against.

    Yeah that guy's team is really good.

    To get Green or Jones, Blount plus Hilton or Shepard would have to be included to be considered a serious offer.

    Even then he shouldn't take it.

    Ok, makes sense. He is really weak at TE, maybe Reed for one?

    Otherwise I will look at other possibilities like Maclin or Benjamin...

    Pick one:

    Deangelo Williams vs KC
    John Brown vs LA
    Tyler Lockett @ NYJ
    Mohamed Sanu vs ATL

    Doug Baldwin or Emanuel Sanders would be two key guys to look at.

    Sanders has evolved as a wideout even with the bad QB play.

    He has logged 8/8/13 targets.

    Baldwin is at 11/6/10 targets.

    Both not thought as elite 1's but might be this year.

    It's my last week without Tom Brady. Do I start disappointing Blake Bortles one more time or should I go for Joe Flacco?

    You think so? I kind of like Deangelo for one more week. Don't think they're going to give Bell 20 carries right off the bat.

    Chiefs have been good on Run D and sport one of the best front 7's. I wouldn't start the second string RB against them.

    I would start J.Brown.

    Last year he had 8/11 targets both times he played the Rams.

    Had 6 catches for 113 yards last year in his second game against the Rams marking his second best game of the season. With last weeks targets up, it may be a good momentum shift for a guy who played well against the Rams last year.

    Hmm this spot is also open for Dez Bryant but it looks like he's not playing. If he does end up playing, should I play him?

    Blake Bortles against Indy. That's a good matchup for him.
    Week 14 last year playing a "Home" game he put up 35 points in standard leagues.
    This game doesn't really count as a home game(playing in Europe) but he is an absolute start right now against INDY.

    They are going to feed Bell; it's what they did last year. DeAngelo is a lottery ticket in case Bell gets hurt, but he's officially a do-not-start until then.

    I would start Cole Beasley over Des at this point. I wouldn't start a Cowboy receiver right now with Dak at QB(he is playing well, but seem to lack the big plays).
