What kind of league are people in where Ridley is getting dropped?
I was surprised by it to, but regardless I didn't get him. #1 waiver wire guy snatched him up. Oh well.

I will note there isn't a whole lot of trading in my league. Everyone is afraid of getting trade-raped.

Seriously? Thomas has 8 touchdowns, this one is a no-brainer to me. Stacy won't get near the end zone unless he breaks a crazy run, Rams offense is going to be atrocious. MJD is junk, if you're super lucky he'll get 8 points. Williams is a closer thing because he always gets a team's worst coverage guys while they double Dez and the Lions secondary is nothing special.

But Thomas is Peyton Manning's red zone go to guy. He *will* get a touchdown. And don't be surprised if Denver puts up 50 points this week at home after losing last week.

Julius Thomas has been a beast for me. I'd go him also. With what Grim said.. There have been games where he's been thrown to 5-6 times in the end zone. Just hasn't gone his way but other times it has. Denver loves him vrs anyone in the red zone.

I am 2 -5 I feel like I should be doing way better but I am not. Any advice you all could give would be a great help.

Gio Bernard or Jacquizz Rodgers? Looking at the opposing defenses they are pretty close one is #4 and the other #7 against the run (give or take I looked it up a few days back) what do you guys think?

I don't think PPR matters, you have to run the fuck away from Amendola until he gets at least 1 semi-passable game under his belt.
I don't totally disagree, but Blackmon is up against SF and still has Chad Henne throwing to him.

Amendola has the benefit of Gronkowski being back for his second game, Tom Brady throwing the ball and the Patriot's run game has picked up signifigantly.

If it's PPR you have to look at Amendola with teams keying in on Gronk.

And on the off shot chance someone like J. Boykin is available in your league, you should grab him and play him over both.

To be honest at 2-5 I'm kind of surprised you don't have Keenan Allen, Terrance Williams or someone else.

If possible drop Andy Dalton and pick up Andre Ellington if he's available.

Gotta play the waiver wire when you are 2-5, means you are in position to get players and make a run.

Marshawn only put up like 7pts against Jacksonville. If things get out of hand early they will sit him as a preventative measure. (But ya, you are screwed)

Pick 2 WR options - TY Hilton @ HOU, Denarius Moore vs Iggles @ home, Brandon LaFell vs ATL @ home.

Pick 1 RB option - Eddie Lacy vs CHI @ home, Ray Rice @ CLE, Trent Richardson @ HOU.

Rice and Richardson have been trash. Have a league where those were my first 2 picks, it has been pretty horrid.

Flex spot, D Williams or Sproles? Really questioning this one cause last week Sproles had a giant goose egg. Standard scoring.

Edit: Flex spot.

Edit 2: Funny enough I just picked up J Boykin on waiver so add him to the list for my flex.
