Rodgers has always under-utilized TEs. For that reason, Graham was one of the players I had scratched off my draft list . Yeah but he’s not had a RZ weapon like Graham for a long time at the position. Everything coming out of GB was that he’d be a big part of their RZ O. For him to have Just FIVE RZ receptions all year is mind blowing. Criminal misuse. if you foresaw that in 2018 I tip my hat to you. And ask you for this weeks lottery numbers. ? Hail.

It was easy to see, Rodgers has never used TEs no matter how good or bad they are. Every FA TE that signed with GB saw their production decline significantly from what they had in previous teams.

Every FA TE that signed with GB saw their production decline significantly from what they had in previous teams. The only #1 TEs that had been signed by GB in the Rodgers era were Cook and Bennett, really, before Graham. Cook was injured early in his only season, but had a strong second half. In his 7 regular season games after returning from injury, and 3 playoff games, he averaged 55.3 yards and .3 TDs per game (expanded to fit a 16 game season would be 884 yards and 4.8 TDs). Bennett had apparently failed to disclose an injury to the team, which ultimately wound up with him getting cut (oh, and also there's the whole Aaron Rodgers being injured for most of the season thing). Before them, Jermichael Finley (excluding his rookie season as he was brought in slowly) was averaging 50 yards and .35 TDs per game (which would be 800 yards and 5.6 TDs for a 16 game season) before his career-ending injury. Also, on the topic of redzone production from TEs, the year before Cook was brought in, Richard Rodgers caught 8 TD passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchogs Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Pick 2 from: Cooks v Chiefs Hill v Rams Evans v Giants Pick 2 from: Mack v Titans K.Johnson v. Panthers Cook v. Chicago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Cooks/Hill and Mack/Johnson. Evans and Cook are both potential high-upside plays, but both have greater question marks going into this week than the other options. Evans just has not been clicking with Fitz lately and Cook is only in his second game back from injury against a great defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportjunkie07 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Almost picked up lamar Jackson this morning. Been running 1 qb with Aarons Rodgers all year so I didnt. Might have to use the waiver on him. Looks like his hot start didn't produce much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Well **** me. My team has been overall decent, but just kept losing despite how well it played. This was my week to start catching up on the W/L board, but my team has really **** the bed. Carson Wentz, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Trey Burton, and Dalvin Cook have combined for less than 2 points. Still a quarter for Burton and Cook to turn it around. Edit: So much for turning it around. Cook just managed to run backwards in the 4th quarter. Those 4 players combined for a total of 1.5 points for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chew Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Ebron, who leads the NFL in TD receptions, dropped a nothingburger. Luck put up 300 & 3 TDs, and Ebron didn't get a single catch. Unless Goff puts up 35, this week will be my lowest score in five years in the ES league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Wentz with a 0.84 this week for me. Lovely. Need to start 2rbs, 2wrs, 1te, 1 flex from these next week (starting Thursday). Any tips? I'm 6 and 5 now (or will be after tonight) and need to win at least 1 of the last 2 to sqeak into the playoffs. Joe Mixon vs Cleveland David Johnson vs Chargers Mark Ingram vs Falcons Nick Chubb vs Cincinnati Davante Adams vs Minny TY Hilton vs Miami Tyler Boyd vs Cleveland Jack Doyle vs Miami Gronk vs Jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I was looking real good but then the king of garbage time Cousins and Diggs lit it up late. Now I'm down 34 heading into MNF. Thankfully I have Kelce, Hill, and Butker, so I'm still confident I can win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 So umm... I actually won this week despite a QB, RB, WR, and TE combining for 1.5 points. Tyreek Hill, Aaron Jones, and Kareem hunt came to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I presume other peoples Yahoo leagues haven’t updated the correct total scores after last night and have put out a wrong new table? I won the game but it’s got the final minus the 20 points from last night that won me this weeks contest. (Although madly it’s credited the relevemt player.). And thus the table has me 7-4 rather than 8-3. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Reynolds had an immediate payoff after picking him up as soon as Kupp went down last week notching 20 points for the come-from-behind win. Two game losing slump halted. 8-3. 8 W’s down. 5 to go! 1 win from the last three might be enough for the paloffs. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulSkin Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Ugly week for streaming a defense. Dallas is there, but no way to that, so it's Buffalo at home v the Jags, NE at the Jets, or Colts at home v Miami. I guess my order is: Colts, Buf, NE. I might try the Lions if Trubisky is ruled out, but will probably grab one of these other ones first, and drop them for Detroit if I have time to pay attention to it on Thanksgiving. Any opinions?
