Mahomes put up 33, McCaffrey 41, Henry 28, Engram 23, Jets def 20. Pretty nice week 1. Sammy Watkins blew up with 46 points but I went Corey Davis for my wr2 face)(*^%

Nice way to start the season. Those start sit decisions always hurt. I started guice (6) over john brown (25) its a tough game.


Mccaffery is an absolute monster. #1 player in fantasy football. Insane

 

[JustinCruise]

Perfect example of my defense strategy paying off by rostering one week ahead. Im already holding Texans D for week 2 and now thats looking even better against jacksonville backup qb.


Had i tried to get texans D this week on the waiver wire, it would be 25 bidding points minimum


Ill drop the Seahawks who i streamed this week ( with a solid 15) and pickup the best defensive matchup for week 3 at the min blind bid while all other owners focus on week 2. Simply one week ahead of the game but it works.

Funchess broken collarbone. Had 5 targets before the injury and was set to be a pretty big part of colts passing game


TY going to be one of the steals of the draft after his adp plummeted with Lucks retirement. Exceptionally talented wr in a great system where he also happens to be the focal point and main redzone weapon

One of the biggest questions answered in Week 1 was Leveon Bell. Guy is still one of the best all around running backs in the game and clearly the jets offense will go through him. I had him in his last healthy season with the steelers and lines like this week were common. Running and catching his way to 20+ fantasy points. What a steal in mid round 2


Need Adams to rebound next week as my first pick and I think he will.

 

[JustinCruise]

Tyreek Hill out at least two months. Brutal for those who selected him in the 2nd round

Move this shit to the Fantasy forum

.5 pt ppr. Henry was taken the bottom of the 4th. Other scenario would have been Lockett/Cook. Instead went Henry/Lockett. Golladay and Boyd were there too. I followed my draft board and preferred Henry in the flex and rb3 over any of the available wide receivers. Carson , Michel, and miles Sanders all went there next round so neither would have made it to my next pick. I really like Freeman but some crazy person took Him in round 2. I'm also high on the other 3 mentioned rb's.

Henry looked great week 1. I may have been wrong about him. Guy just might be a stud

 

[JustinCruise]

Its criminal that the saints have never truly unleashed Kamara other than first 4 games last year

 

[JustinCruise]

Feeling good about Lutz as my kicker

Feel like i got the most value i could out of the brutal 6 spot. I like to target high upside running backs for my bench if the starter was to get hurt. Chubb was a key piece for me last year using same strategy.


Somebody in my leageu stole Zeke late round 2. The draft was right after Jones said he expects him out multiple games. Now of course hes about to sign.

This team scored 155 and got the week one win. Fimished 3rd in the league in points. 1-0

Texans D for week 2 at home vs jags



Thought I would end up with Julio picking 8th, but guy picking 4th surprisingly chose Chubb, which caused Adams to drop to 8. I'm perfectly comfortable taking the most consistent WR in fantasy as my first round ppr pick. Felt like a steal with the 5th pick of round 2 to get Bell. He has been going first round in most drafts i've seen. He's a talented, Bell cow back, in what should be an improved offensive line and offense. Plus he will play a large factor in the passing game with a young qb. I opted for for Elite tight end Kittle in round 3 after a couple of my other top targets there were gone. Only other player I considered there was Cooper but he has burned me several time in the past, has a below average QB, is wildly inconsistent, and already has foot issues. My least favorite pick was TY in fourth round. Was targeting Robert Woods, Galloday, or Lockett, but all three of them went one after the other before my pick. I don't hate the pick entirely, because I think the colts system now will result in better TY production than 2017 when Brisset was QB. But I would have been happier with any of the other 3 guys. Russell Wilson was a steal in round 11 but expect Murray to overtake him as my starter. My bench is loaded with high upside RBs if injury or circumstances break their way. Guice, Penny, Ito, and Jamaal Williams all have RB1 potential if the cards fall right. I only need one to pop to make that strategy worthwhile. And until then Ekeler will be solid rb2 until gordon returns (if that happens)

This team put up 194 pts to get the season started 1-0. Finished second in the league in points. One guy barely edged me out with Lamar Jackson and Sammy Watkins

Waiver moves

Im dumpster diving for QB as not planning to start Murray at baltimore or Wilson at Pittsburgh. Targeting the red rocket at home against the 49ers and Carr vs the chiefs. Also looking for titans D as a week 3 play against the jags.



Fantasy pro has me projected 1st this week. Really need to start out strong with DJ moore in a nice matchup TNF. Thursday wasnt kind to me last week with Adams.

 

[JustinCruise]

If I had Todd Gurley I would very concerned right now and trying to unload in him a trade after a solid week 1 stat line. He was clearly straying away from any contact, pulled in the redzone every time, and is not confident in the knee. This week was his ceiling

 

[JustinCruise]

Waiting to hear Olsens status for tomorrow. Hopefully hes out so a few more targets go to DJ moore

 

[JustinCruise]
