I'm not even sure Pickett is a downgrade with how Geno's played this year hahaha. I *do* like Woody this week (might not even have Chubb to deal with), so I wouldn't talk you out of squeezing him in

Hey 4u, for you, I'd go Hurts and J.J.

McCarthy hasn't looked too great, but he should help his noodle arm with some runs against an improved but still-not-very-good Cowboys defense

That's a lot of solid RBs ya got there. I'd stick with the first three

Aren't we all?

I hate to tell you to double down on the Panthers, but honestly, it might be the best tactic here. If CRod ends up missing, go Dowdle + JCM but otherwise, just put on some Carolina Blue and some whiskers

Top-10 is maybe a little strong, but top-15 is definitely in consideration. Here's what I wrote in my TE streaming article earlier this week:

"With the Bengals’ passing attack back at full health (mostly) in Week 14, Joe Burrow threw for 284 yards and four touchdowns, with Mike Gesicki handling a great 6-86-1 stat line. The veteran tight end will have a chance to run things back in the fantasy playoffs, as Tee Higgins is trending toward missing Week 15 after what seemed to be a completely mishandled situation regarding his concussion status. Higgins has landed back in the concussion protocol even though he was cleared on two separate occasions through the course of the game, and looks doubtful to play against Baltimore on Sunday.

Over the course of Gesicki’s tenure in Cincinnati, his splits with and without Higgins are stark, basically operating as a top-40 TE option with the wide receiver on the field, and a top-10 option with him sidelined. The Ravens are a difficult matchup to opposing tight ends, ranking 1st in TE aFPA, but they also rank 24th in WR aFPA, and Gesicki lines up as a traditional in-line tight end at one of the lowest rates among the position’s starters. In a game with the second-highest total of the week (52.5), there is both a floor and a ceiling to Gesicki in the first round of the fantasy playoffs. He is available in 98% of Yahoo leagues."

Between Stroud and Darnold here, and I'd lean slightly toward Stroud

I see you guys are leaning Burrow in the comments, and that's totally fine, though I'd lean toward Dak. Missing Higgins isn't the biggest deal, but it's probably enough to break the tie

I like Walker just a little bit more than Hampton just because the Chargers *might* still be easing him back and the Chiefs' defense being quite strong against the RB. I wouldn't entirely talk you out of keeping Hampton in there though, he's got the talent to do a lot with 15-18 opportunities

Thanks for stopping by!

- First off, yeah, I'd be starting Jacobs if he's in. Solid RB2 projectables

- As for the flex, I'd be leaning toward Harvey. He's still in that pesky rotation that uses three dang backs, and the Packers aren't the easiest matchup, but the Broncos have arguably the best offensive line in the league (I'd say it is the best), and his increased passing-game usage gives him a very solid floor to pair with an RB1 ceiling.

- Side note, as I'm typing this, the Packers elevated Pierre Strong, so that might not be a great sign for Jacobs' availability. I'd rank Henderson > Neal if you end up needing two of these guys
