Fantasy advice

pats what do you think about Chubb rest of season outlook?

 

[HarryCaray]

I'm in second. 20 pts behind the first place guy who is top 25 all time NFFC earnings list.

I've scored the most points in the league three weeks straight.



It's a 12 team league. 20 roster spots on each team

Damn, not trying to talk shit but those are some really weak flex options. Bye week for a lot of guys?

How are they weak flex options? Ebron has been an absolute stud in the flex for me for a month. Cohen is a ppr star. Now with Chubb taking over I can even use Mccoy in the flex in certain spots. Hell even Crowell on my bench has blowup games at times.

Like I said, sitting second place and now gifted a #1 RB in Chubb.

These guys headline my roster

Mahommes
Chubb
Cohen
AB
AJ Green
Ertz
Ebron


That's an extremely strong team. The TE position is a wasteland and I have 2 of the top 3 guys in the league. That's been a huge advantage.


I have antonio brown on bye.

 

[JustinCruise]

Correction. I have the #1 and #2 TE in fantasy. Ebron passed Kelce last week in overall scoring.

 

[JustinCruise]

Thanks for everyone's input. I'm going to bench Mccoy.

 

[HarryCaray]

If your 2 starting RB are Cohen and Chubb, that's weak. I don't care how many TE you have.

 

[HarryCaray]

Don't get me wrong I have Cohen on 2 teams, he just doesn't get starts unless someone is on bye.

Chubb's a top ten RB rest of way IMO. That's why I have held him on my roster the whole season. He has a cake schedule, a lot of talent, and is now a 20 carry guy in a run first offense and a lock for the goal line work. Time will tell though

if he was on your bench then you've missed out on his past two games


In his past two games Cohen has been PPR RB#5 and #6 overall

no matter how you slice it the Hyde trade is an upgrade to my team which was already in second place

 

[HarryCaray]

Your expectations on him are way higher than mine.

Cleveland is the league's 24th ranked offense - scoring only 21 ppg - and middle of the pack (16th) in run play %age. And he can't block so he's going to lose passing down touches to Duke.

Not sure how that equates to top 10.

Tell me who on this list you would take Chubb over

Gurley
Kamara
Gordon
Barkley
McCaffrey
Hunt
Zeke
Bell
Mixon
Howard

It helps no doubt. I would just temper my expectations. You didn't just last a must-start RB.

I'lll take him over bell and howard for sure. It's very close on a few of those other guys

In his past two games Cohen has been PPR RB#5 and #6 overall

Last week I started Zeke (19) and Gordon (35) instead
I could have gotten 4 extra points by starting Cohen, but I won anyway

Look I watch every Bears game. The floor on Cohen is too low for me right now to start him over more established guys.
His performance in week 6 was pretty flukey.
Looks like in week 7 Nagy actually started working him in the game plan though. Another week or two of that type of use and I'll have to start flexing him in.

I also have Howard in a league and he's definitely losing touches.

 

[JustinCruise]

cohen also has a very good chance to be top 5 ppr back again this week in a good matchup for him. should comfortably finish in the top 10

You can't use your league as a comparison when you were basically able to get three first round picks. There is 0% chance anyone in my league (or most leagues) could have drafted Zeke and Gordon. I can't remember who your next pick was but i'm pretty sure your first three picks all went in round 1 in my draft

 

[JustinCruise]

Obviously Mahommes is another reason i've had success. #1 overall in fantasy points and I drafted him in round 13 as my backup to Cam

 

[JustinCruise]

Crazy thing about Cohen is that he was looking like an absolute bust in the first month


I was kicking myself for taking him over Dion Lewis/Chris Thompson. But now Lewis is terrible and Thompson has been hurt and pretty bad overall. Things change so much in fantasy from the start of the year

 

[CHOPTALK]

So you think Ebron is a better fantasy TE then kelce ?
Lol
Its a stretch to even call ertz over kelce but yoh calling both of them over kelce .
Ok

 

[HarryCaray]

Projected PPR points by RB remainder of season

Chubb is 29th
Cohen is 37th

Let's stop with the hyperbole
