Apologies for all the waiver questions but I have one more. It's a 1 day, not 2 day waiting period. So if Ingram was dropped this morning, why won't the claim process until Sunday morning?

Personally I have Saquon Barkley & LeSean McCoy with ingram on my bench. once hes off suspension i will move him to my flex and honestly, i will probably win my league because of it.

You're only considering the upside and not baking in any of the risk. Sure, you present ONE possible way things could go. The other way is that he comes back and he's not in game shape and not part of the plan anymore. Some people will say that Payton has always hated Ingram and can't wait for the chance to get rid of him, keep in mind Ingram is a FA at the end of the season and look what happened to Snead last season...

My point is that there is a range of possibilities for Ingram - on one end he doesn't play the entire season and on the other end is your projection for him. He'll likely be in the middle, but leaning which way no one knows, that's why the pick is extremely risky. Yeah, you could make off like a bandit, or you could be cursing his name every Sunday.

It might be 24hrs minimum until the next waiver period. Most usually process at like 4:00AM EST. So if he was dropped this morning at like 10AM, the 24 period would run until saturday 10AM and then the next waiver period would be Sunday morning.

Just guessing, every platform and league are different.

Full PPR James white or Nick Chubb?

Current rbs are Mixon, Collins, Lewis, DJJ, Chubb, Clement. P sure white is still on waivers. I actually claimed him then saw Chubb was available so dropped him, but waivers have clears I can grab him again if I need tho. Kind of waivering on whether I want Chubb or not

**dhawkeye1980** · 08-31-2018, 11:45 PM

Full PPR? Def White, and it's not close. Chubb doesn't even really have a role yet, and when/if he gets one, it's not going to be a pass catching one.

**Jayarbie** · 09-01-2018, 07:26 AM

Bears DST looking hnnng.

thanks, that's kind of what I was thinking, I've got 2 QBs right now too which in not a fan of, especially with 10 teams I can certainly steam. Think I'm gonna hold Stafford cut mahomes and pick up white

Edit:. Line up looking pretty good now. I'll have to cut someone for s kicker before the games start tho.

QB Stafford

Rbs Mixon, Collins, Chubb, white, Lewis, djj, Clement,

Wrs Hopkins, Allen, Tate, Crowder, Watkins, Cole

TE Reed

K

Dst saints

Yeah, a 10 team league, you shouldn't have to carry 2 QBs unless there are teams carrying 3. Even the 21st QB this year is going to be usable. Assuming there are about 15 rostered, someone like Ryan, Rivers, or Mariota should be available.

every team except for mine has 2 QBs now, but I'm not worries, it was like this last year and I won because I had more skill pos. Depth. I will stream TyGod if needed. Line up updated in last post btw ^

What RBs were there when you got Hill ??

**bbrower30** · 09-01-2018, 10:09 AM

Bad idea. No reason not to grab at least 1 rb. At that spot I'd do rb rb.

**kingofturtles** · 09-01-2018, 10:36 AM

First week my qb (mahomes) goes against my defence (chargers). Chargers also my fav team so I want them to win.

Is this the worst scenario in FF?

Yeah, that seems fine. You can easily cut Chubb or Clement for a kicker before next week.

**Funk7632** · 09-01-2018, 12:52 PM

12 team PPR

Need some grading. Was going to do a full on RB approach, however potato league but good money league. Pick 8 for sure thought I’d get Kamara or something like that but first 7 picks were all RBs so i had to take Brown. Didn’t take a RB until round 4 FYI. Not thrilled about my team. Definitely not the team I planned on leaving with. Qb was picked last round.

Dalton

K Drake, Collins, K Johnson, AP, G Bernard, D Sproles

A Brown, M Thomas, M Evans, Edelman(reached for him, dont know why),P Garcon

Kittle

Is this a 10 or 12 man league? In 12, this is a great team. You have 4 of potentially the top 10 WRs for the second half of the season. Obviously, you need some of the backs to work out, but these aren't really too risky either.

**yuja** · 09-01-2018, 01:12 PM

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Jerick McKinnon suffered what appeared to be a "concerning" injury during Saturday's workout.

Brieda still hurt tho

**JayDubbs932** · 09-01-2018, 01:58 PM

Notable events today:

Dan Bailey cut
Martavis Bryant failed drug test, banned and cut
McKinnon concerning injury at practice
Jonathan Williams (Ingram replacement) cut
Foles expected to start week 1

Take that info and do what you want with it. I just dropped James White for Alfred Morris

Damn i grabbed williams in misc dynasty figured he might be okay for a few games and maybe traded. Might hold on see if he gets pickdd up

Alfie gets volume but has limited ceiling. Breida slides on to Cohen-ish territory imo

I don’t think either have top 15 RB value this year unless we see Morris used in the passing game for the first time in his career

About to have a ****show on my hands in my main league. McKinnon owner is a whiner. He’s gonna throw a fit that his keeper was done before season started
