Yeah, it's a tough situation to be in, but I think you'd be better off keeping Lamb. Can't kick yourself too much for keeping him, but trading him away could tank your team and make you kick yourself for dumping your #1 WR lol.
A thought. Would you trade any of my other receivers for any of by those backs?

Thoughts on week 7 QB? standard scoring

Mahomes at SF
Geno at ATL

Case for Mahomes - Andy Reid off a bye week, Mahomes off a bye week, extra reps/prep with new WR corp, SF pass defense middle of the road

Case for Geno - dome game, bad SEA defense (high scoring games), great WR corp, ATL pass defense middle of the road

My gut tells me Mahomes considering the time off and overcorrection to some below average play so far this season. Also, the SF rush defense is good and may force KC to throw

Geno is way outproducing Mahomes so that’s the way I would go, fully expecting Mahomes to go off…

robinson's the safer, higher floor pick. mooney's been more boom or bust. if PPR, i'd probably take robinson just because of how many targets he's getting per game

tyreek or higgins? 0.5 ppr
Hill, just hoping that coming off a bye will help. You know he’s gonna get targets. Although I have to admit I am a bit surprised at how poor Cleveland’s pass D is.

Another one of these weird years. In my primary 12 team fantasy league I have a 2-3 record. My team is 1st in points for, and dead last 12th in points against.

The only undefeated team in our league is 9th in points for, and 1st in points against. With less than half the # of points scored against than my team.

Adding on to the weirdness in my main 12 team league this season:

- Only two teams have 4+ wins,
- Only three teams have a winning record (the third place team is 3-2-1)
- The bottom nine teams in our league all have 2 or 3 wins.

This season is weird to me anyway. Really shallow at receiver (lots of injuries and spreading the ball around) and everyone is set at running back. In one league, we have two teams trying to trade a back for a receiver and no one can do it. I’m in the same situation in another league. I have four “starting” backs and want to trade one for a receiver but most teams have two plus a reasonable backup and not enough receivers anyway.

Stefon Diggs owner also has Love. His backup is Purdy, who's on bye. He has Saquon (among others, of course) at RB.

I am starting Jayden Daniels at QB, with Burrow backing up/rotating in. At RB, I have James Cook and Montgomery, plus a nice pool of depth including Irving, Bigsby and Chase Brown. At receiver, I have Lamb, Puca, Jayden Reed and Pickens.

Would you offer Reed, Montgomery and Burrow to get Saquon plus Purdy to take Burrow's place as backup? Or is that just overthinking things? Working on the assumption that Saquon is a significant upgrade on Montgomery.

tl;dr EDIT - so this deal essentially becomes the below, where I get the bolded

b/u QB - Burrow for Purdy
3-4 WR - Reed and Pickens for Pickens and a guy like Tillman
1RB - Montgomery for Saquon

Pick 2 in PPR Engram, Hockenson, Rachaad White

Also just lost Diggs so I need to play either Pittman or Tillman. Leaning the former since Flacco is starting and the Chargers give up the least points to WR.

Sometime fortune smiles on you a little. I picked up Cedric Tillman for my bench last week after my WR Jameson Williams was suspended and I only had one other spare WR on the bench. Then my best WR Tee Higgins injures himself and I was forced to start Tillman this past weekend.

This is standard or PPR?

I’m a bit on the fence here. If you gave me the option I’d rather have:
- Barkley over Montgomery
- Burrow over Purdy
- Reed over Puca or Pickens—I trust GB’s offense more than LAR or PIT

Barkley is an upgrade over Montgomery, but not sure it’s a big enough upgrade to downgrade depth in the other positions.

It’s modified PPR.

Yeah chances are I’m standing pat. But I don’t think I could offer less and get Saquon so I wanted to see what people thought.

.5 ppr (2 different leagues) pick one TE

Team 1: Kraft or McBride

I’m in the same TE boat, except a TD Only league:

Tucker Kraft or Sam Laporta? Making it more fun the Packers and Lions play this week. I’m leaning towards LaPorta, the absence of Jameson Williams could help LaPorta get a larger target volume as he did last week.

This is a situation where you should feel confident in either choice. LaPorta because of Goff, the Lions offense and lack of Jameson.

Then on the Kraft front, if its Malik Willis, I would assume there is less of a deep passing game where LaFleur will dial up some screen passes and short passing game opportunities for Kraft.

I'd lean LaPorta because he's the better player, has the better offense and better QB. But wouldn't be mad at either and am jealous of your TE's.
