I wasn’t dumb enough to start him but didnt the Jets say they wanted to have perine as the feature back to see what they have? Old man Gore still out there leading carries and stealing TDs

Gase and Zac Taylor, can't trust those guys as far as you can throw them. Pete Carrol and Sean Payton aren't too far behind either

[Murph0408]

if any of you have the space on the bench or a droppable guy go get your giants defense while you can. they are on bye so a free pickup vs burning a waiver.

first of all they've been solid as it is but they have cinci and with no burrow (or mixon) i don't know what more you could ask for as a matchup.

Hill is robbing Kamara

This and it's going to continue. Hill getting the start was the worst thing to happen to Kamara at the worst time.

[Jayarbie]

True though. How tf can you categorize him as TE lol. I only play yahoo which has their **** together, hearing ESPN try to justify it all week is proof they know it’s wrong.

How can you categorize him as a TE? I mean, that's been his primary position for 3 years, so there's that. He has QB eligibility as well.

How exactly has that been his primary position? He's listed as a QB on their roster, not a TE.

Because on the field, he's actually played TE except for a gadget play or two a game at QB.

It doesn't really matter to me, because I don't play on garbage ESPN, but I think players should be listed the same as they are on the depth chart. Especially since he actually started at QB yesterday.

He'll likely lose TE eligibility going forward based on where the majority of his snaps were this week.

My Taysom Hill start was for nothing, I lost anyways despite a 138pt week, lost by 10.

No way Hill has TE eligibility next week, they are going to end that ASAP.

I won a game by 2 points because of it. That team is 6-5 now trying to sneak into the playoffs.

[sfgiants13]

Well unless Fournette and Goff drop 45 points tonight I'm about to go 6-5. Thankfully our entire league is right in the same area record wise minus a couple who are already out.

Exactly...

He shouldn't have been TE eligible to begin with was my point.

I really hope not because I'm fighting for playoff positioning and the Hill pickup was huge

[velociREPtor]

Exactly...



He shouldn't have been TE eligible to begin with was my point.

Why? That's what he's always been. What if if was a smoke screen to throw off the Falcons? I agree that next week he should be changed to QB as he didnt play any TE this week.

[velociREPtor]

ESPN has already said if he got majority of his snaps at QB he would lose TE eligibility

[bullybreed]

Why? Because he's a QB. I don't care that he's "always" been a TE. He's literally rostered as a QB on the team, not a TE or not any of the 47 other positions he plays at random times during the games. Hill was named the starter Friday. The TE designation should have been removed then in my opinion. ESPN is literally the only platform out there that did this.

Hill last year lined up out wide or in the slot more than he lined up as a TE. So why doesn't he have WR eligibility too if that is the logic ESPN is using?

[WHChampion]

Do they kick Hill out of the TE spot when he loses eligibility? Or do they just lock the lineup until he's removed?

Id assume itll auto remove him yo the bench

Hill should have WR, TE, and QB eligibility.

Looks like it's treated like if an active player is in IR spot so you can keep him there but can't make roster moves/trades. Gonna be a mess lol.

[bullybreed]

He shouldn't but you're entitled to your opinion. Agree to disagree.

[bullybreed]

Thoughts on QB streaming this week? I'm currently in 2nd place, but there is only 3 teams actually out of the playoff race, so this is a must win. I had picked up Burrow and was just going to roll with him ROS but we all know how that worked out. 6PT passing TDs for this league.

Rivers vs TEN (Currently rostered - grabbed him when Burrow went down, but he's also nursing a toe injury now)
Wentz vs SEA
Carr @ ATL
Tannehill @ IND
Cousins vs CAR
Smith @ DAL
Jones @ CIN

you have a lot of good options. i still can't trust carson wentz. his fantasy numbers ended up OK but if you look at him overall his last 3 games he has been awful despite some better matchups.

the safest of that list is actually carr vs the falcons. i feel like he can't hurt you there. tannehill is worth rostering for the rest of the season after this week. indy played rodgers hard but look at tannehill's remaining schedule. he's your guy going forward.

I was thinking Tannehill ROS starting wk13 too. Was also liking Carr this week too. Has a fairly safe floor and could easily throw 2-3 TDs VS that trash ATL defense. Carr also gets the Jets next week.

[velociREPtor]

I concur with Carr.

Pick 2:

Kareem Hunt @ JAX
Antonio Gibson @ DAL
Salvon Ahmed @ NYJ
---------------------------------
Amari Cooper v. WAS OR Antonio Brown v. KC (If Julio Jones is out I'll be starting both anyways, so I guess maybe I have to start Cooper Thursday?)

antonio has been getting a lot of looks. Washington very strong vs pass....man i'll go antonio brown.

above that i'll go Gibson and Ahmed. matchups too good to pass on. granted so is kareems.

Love Ahmed's matchup but idk how you can sit Hunt or Gibson at this point.

I'd roll out AB too.

[frutistafreeze]

What happens if I don't move Taysom Hill out of the TE slot in ESPN? It just won't let me make any other changes to my roster?

Rivers, Carr, and Tannehill are all fairly safe high floor pickups ROS (assuming Rivers is healthy, although I haven't heard that there is a danger he'll be out - he plays through a ton of injuries and doesn't rely on mobility, and the Colts are in the playoff race). For this week, I like Carr's matchup the best.
