Two questions...

Jordan Cameron or Owen Daniels this week for ppr?

Thoughts on Victor Cruz and crab tree. I haven't seen a giants or 49er game but these guy are completely disappointment. Guy if offering Zac Stacy for either. And I might consider it because I have decent depth. Andre Johnson, maclin, Cruz, cooks, crabtree. Rb I have forte, Ellington and Pierre Thomas.

We have a fanduel going this week? Leaving for a road trip tomorrow morning and not sure how much time I will have this weekend to check this thread (or if I will remember). Need to make my $5 donation.

I would suggest Owen Daniels. For me it was a toss up between Eric Ebron and Owen Daniels, as a Jimmy Graham owner I might need a decent TE for a few games. I give the slight edge to Daniels but Eric Ebron could really start stepping up with Calvin Johnson gone

Thoughts on Ronnie Hillman? Solid play this week or keep him on the bench until we see how he can run this week and how he fits into Broncos offense?

I have Graham so I picked up Ebron this week.

I'd lean toward Daniels PPR since he's a proven red zone threat and has performed already this year. However, Cameron will give you more upside and is waiting to breakout. Both teams are clicking offensively and boast the 2 best OLines in the NFL. Since Pitt is middle of the pack in Pass Coverage but crappy in Run D I expect the Browns to have their way with Pitt on the ground. Baltimore will have their way through the air or the ground vs TB, whichever they want. Both are plus matchup plays and I'm playing each in 2 different leagues this week.

I'm tepid on Cruz this week, although he will probably eat since it's the Eagles and he's a good route runner. However, if he comes out of the slot then he pairs off with Boykin who is a top 5 CB so far so keep expectations tempered - Beckham Jr and Randle are the ones with better potential going against C.Williams and Fletcher on the outside who are completely burnable. Cruz has a relatively easy schedule outside of 2 weeks in November (Seattle/SF). His PFF Accuracy ranking is low (36 of 43) and in Pass Grading he's ranked 84th at -2.0. In slot performance he ranks 20 of 21 with 4 drops. However, he is tied for first in slot targets and is first in total yards. This means he's one of the highest targeted slot WRs in the league, and with the NYG Pass Blocking (#2) giving Eli time, I am inclined to say Cruz has a lot going for him despite his relatively subpar performance so far via chances given.

Crabtree has 4 less targets than Cruz (33 vs 37) and his snaps have been dropping every week since Week 2 - because of his injury. Last week, he only played 59% of snaps, probably also due to the emergence of Boldin and Stevie Johnson who have been flat out good so far. SF is currently not a great Pass Blocking team but a superb Run Blocking team. That means heavy doses of Gore/Hyde and less options for Crabtree. Combined with Kap's inconsistency and lower snaps, I would unload Crabtree over Cruz. One caveat is that Crabtree ranks in the top 15 in WR rating when targeted (25 of 33, 2TD, Only 1 Int allowed) at 103.9 and has more skill than Cruz... I would endorse him above Cruz if he was healthy AND in a passing offense which aren't the case.

CJ Anderson is the better runner and Hillman grades out shitty in Front Adjusted Yards (yes, even last week @ 4.3yd/carry which were on 80% Favorable Fronts) but most analysts are saying that Hillman is the starter. The NYJ are not a plus matchup, so I'd wait and see unless you're desperate.

I would make the trade. Jackson is the #1 receiver now in Washington and Cousins barely looked at Garcon last night. Boldin is a consistent 3rd down look in SF.

I worry if RG3 comes back then Garcon is gonna be getting more looks.

Right now though, I am considering trading Andre Johnson away for Rueben Randle and a future draft pick and I think that would be worth it. Ryan Fitzpatrick is not helpful for TDs t Andre Johnson.

aj for randle + draft pick could be worthwhile. not sure why you'd bother trading for boldin though

The fact that JJ watt has a TD before AJ speaks alot. As an AJ owner, I'm considering moving him as well but finding value is tough.

Your trade seems sweet.

I was asleep last night for a few minutes and somehow my body knew that I hadn't yet done my waiver wire moves for the week, so it woke me up. I put in my moves and ended up getting Hillman even though I was 6/10 in the line. Figured he would be gone for sure. Now, fingers crossed he'll be useful. Don't think I'll have the cajones to start him this week.

10 person league. It was slim pickings at QB at that point. Weird scoring system where QB's put up insane points. First 5 picks were QB's.
15 QB's were taken before I made my QB pick.

Yeah AJ is starting to get worrisome, but I still think he's better than Randle.

My team is turning into an infirmary. First Jimmy Graham now A.J. Green, Vincent Jackson has hurt ribs and Reggie Bush is hurt (no big surprise there).

I dropped Nile Davis to pick up Mohamed Sanu, if things continue going downhill I might have to drop Josh Gordon to pick up an RB, my backup RBs are Pierre Thomas and Chris Johnson. I can't believe I might have to use Chris Johnson this week

I sympathize since my RB situation keeps getting worse.

Ball Out
Ingram Out
Martin
Peterson Out
Williams Out

Not sure who I'm going to start this week. Someone dropped Chris Ivory so I'm trying to get him, but he is on waivers until Friday. Surprisingly, I'm 3-2 though so hopefully my luck keeps working for me. Plus, it helps to have Rivers.
