Did my one auction last night.
10 team PPR
A little top-weak at WR, but deep. Like this team a lot. Maybe it's cause I've been looking at teams in 12-person leagues...
QB Derek Carr
RB David Johnson
RB Josh Howard
WR Crabtree
WR Davante Adamas
TE Gronk
Flex Stefon Diggs
B Riddick
B Britt
B Tyrell Williams
B Moncrief
B Mike Wallace
B Kerwynn Williams
B Tarik Cohen

Beckham still not practicing for over two weeks now for a sprained ankle.....and not a high ankle sprain either.
He was shown dancing in the locker room a week ago.
I'll be in major bind on this one. He's looking like a gametime decision for the sunday night game. I don't have anyone to replace him with monday

Because my league doesn't allow waivers until week 2, I'm benching Beckham. No other choice other than just taking the gamble that he plays. Unless something comes out between now and tomorrow morning, he's on my bench. My team is that league is beast but not this week. No Winston, no beckham, and having to start Eli with no beckham....this is a survival week for me in that league. All you do in week one is play against the league average. Hopefully I can squeak out a win.
Team #1 0-1 This is not a surprise considering I was without Winston, Beckham, and Woodhead. And to make matters worse, was forced to start Eli with no beckham. Perfect storm for week 1. This team still has plenty of potential to make a run with Zeke and Odell.
Highlight: not much. Elliot really the only one who had a good game. Streaming the Steelers defense paid off
Lowlights: a lot. Eifert with 1 point, Powell underutilized, woodhead going down, no beckham or winston. Alshon was horrible. Rough week.
Questions: Cohen isn't available in this league. So the question becomes do I try to replace Woodhead with Powell/Sims or shoot for a different free agent RB. Will odell be healthy? Will woodhead come back? Wil Zeke continue to be available? Will Alshon pick it up? Do I start Fleener over Eifert?
Team #2 1-0
Highlights: Mccoy was a workhorse for me, easily out performing Leveon and DJ, the two RB's taken before him. I won by only 3 pts, so streaming Pittsburgh D was a crucial move that helped me get the W.
Lowlights: Left Thielan, my highest scoring player, on the bench (25 pts).
Questions: Do I make a bid on Cohen or replace woodhead with Sims/Sproles. Is Cohen enough of an upgrade over those two to spend the money?

Cohen was a waiver pick for another. I moved up from 9 to 6.
Ended up sending Johnson to the IR, dropped Lacey, and dropped A-rob. Signed Chris Carson, Kerwynn Williams, and Buck Allen. Between them and Perine hope to have a serviceable rb2. Fingers crossed the Humble Rumble is back in November.

I'm spending a large portion of my blind bidding points on cohen tonight. About 50% if someone wants him more than that more power to them. I'm all in on him as a woodhead replacement. Solid rb2 the rest of the season IMO. My only other options on my roster are sproles(very low ceiling) and sims. Sims has been a solid ppr back before, but a lot more weapons on that team now and he has injury history.
Unfortunately he isn't available in my other league so I'll be riding it out with Powell. Forte will probably get hurt soon.
