    Why would you have both guys in the first place unless you're playing them at the same time?

    I think you over-invested at TE. I'd try to move him for RB depth or one of the emerging WR's like Diggs/Sharp.

    I definitely go with Reed. He's receiving much more targets and the Dallas defense, the linebackers specifically, are real bad.

    Conversely, I would look to trade kelce for am upgrade somewhere else and/or reed depending on the return. Just way too much of a luxury

    I drafted Kelce but then some dude actually dropped Reed so I picked him up. It's a six player league so more players are available than I'm used to.

    6 player team explains it. pretty much means every team is stacked. and the waivers is filled with starters as well

    In comparison, I'm also in a 12 player league and my tight ends there are Charles Clay and M Bennet
    lol

    Ok, advice for my PPR flex. 12 player league.

    Michael Crabtree
    Dez B
    Will Fuller

    Dez seems like the obvious choice, but I think it's gonna take time for him to jell with the rookie. As for Fuller, I already have DHop starting if that matters. Leaning towards Crab but tell me if I'm crazy to bench Dez.

    Thanks.

    A day after Rivers touted Tyrell Wlliams, the Chargers announced Inman as the WR2 across from Benjamin. While I suspect Williams will get a lot of targets as the WR3, I am still benching him and starting Dwayne Allen instead (Mariota, Miller, Blount, Wallace, Shepard, Reed, Allen, McManus, Baltimore).

    I know... need a WR1 like crazy. Hoping Allen has another good day... then go shopping.

    Pick 2 for .5 PPR.

    Gio Bernard @PIT
    Theo Riddick vsTEN
    Duke Johnson vsBAL

    This'll be a weekly struggle. Riddick sat last week lol.

    I'd go Riddick and Duke. I just don't trust Gio, and I think they'll be trailing and passing a lot.

    I'm a little worried about TY in my Flex spot today (banged up and tough matchup).

    Should I replace him with James White or Will Fuller or just keep TY there?

    Black Sunday for RBs. Get your waiver wire ready to fire boys.

    In my 6 player league, I have Gurley and Freeman. Getting tempted to bench them. Maybe give them one more week.

    Rashad Jennings wrist apparently is injured which explains him not being in the game during the 4th quarter yesterday. something to monitor

    I have three healthy RBs (Miller, Gordon, Blount) and one who probably returns in two weeks (Chris Ivory). Hoping I can package one (Gordon or Blount) with a TE (Dwayne Allen) to get a decent WR2 or even WR1 (my wides are Hilton, Lockett, Shepard, Tyrrell Williams).

    Though tempted to wait a week to get a few more points out of Gordon (playing IND)...
