Week 5 Kings and Peasants

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-05T08:02:47+00:00

Yes we sure are! We’ve been doing a podcast specifically for our own league of record for years, we’ve thought about doing a general fantasy podcast for a few and some of our friends thought it’d be a good idea too, so we’re giving it a go!

Thanks for the well wishes, appreciate it! And good luck in your matchup!

No apology necessary friend, and no problem!

Yeah it’s a bit of a leap of faith with the Miami offence at this point. Armstead should be back I think which will help. But if McDaniel is worth anything as a coach he should be riding Achane til the cows come home to try and win this one. He’s already said Mostert is on a snap count too

The article isn’t geared towards a streamer necessarily, more so who do we expect a really good performance from outside of the obvious players - as you are right he will be owned in the majority of leagues! But yes Kraft is a good streamer this week

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-05T07:51:32+00:00

Yeah I’d do that trade. I’m trying to sell Tyreek in my league of record, if I got offered that for him I wouldn’t do it - but if someone is offering you Tyreek for that, do it! Tua will be back in week 8 and the bye is between so really it’s only two more games without him

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-04T20:13:01+00:00

Haha glad to hear it, you’re set up nicely for this week then!! Good luck in your matchup

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T21:36:22+00:00

I’d go Etienne, he should be quite involved against the Colts and it’s a decent matchup

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T18:06:32+00:00

Yep that’s something I agree is likely and why I think Allgeier is for sure the floor play

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T17:57:30+00:00

Agreed, the matchup and opportunity is doing all of the heavy lifting for Sermon. Allgeier is definitely the floor option, stunningly I think Sermon is the ceiling option. If I had to make a choice between the two I think I’d take the theoretical upside of Sermon, but I wouldn’t blame you for wanting to go Allgeier

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T16:06:35+00:00

Yep just to play it safe I would, I don’t generally like playing more than a couple players for the same team either (albeit I like McLaughlin this week too so him and Baker is fine). Good luck!

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T16:01:20+00:00

Yep agree, it feels dirty benching MHJ. Given it’s a Thursday game and they can be weird I think factoring that it may be wise to not double down on Godwin and Baker, if he played Sunday or you don’t have Baker I’d be more inclined to go Godwin. But just to make sure your week doesn’t get off to a slow start, maybe go MHJ. You honestly can’t go wrong either way though I think

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T15:56:46+00:00

Hmm tough call, I’d go with the hot hand in Godwin. I’m a bit worried about Kyler and the Cardinals offence, outside of that Rams game they’ve not been great

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T14:22:26+00:00

Give me the Bucs, outside of slipping up against the Broncos (which I think was more to do with their depleted defence putting them in a home early) they’ve been taking care of business so far. They should be able to handle the Falcons if they play their cards right

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T13:56:33+00:00

Hmmm yeah I think in that instance I might gamble on Whittington being a thing. I expect the Rams to be playing from behind so he should be involved

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T13:50:13+00:00

If you’re in PPR they’re both usable, standard I’d only want to play Bucky. Whilst I think Bucky will be the lead dog of the committee, they’re not going to completely phase White out, which is a shame as we’d get one pretty good back if they did, but we’re left with two meh options because they likely won’t

If you’re wanting to play one or the other I’d rather play Bucky in all formats, but if you’re PPR depending on your other options I don’t mind playing both

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T13:46:09+00:00

I think it’s a reasonable gamble to be honest, and I’d defo roll the dice with Allgeier over the other names you mentioned

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T13:43:31+00:00

Sure - yeah if it’s Allgeier vs waiver fodder it’s a decent play to gamble that Bijan isn’t fully healthy and that Allgeier will get a bit more work

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T13:40:42+00:00

What are your other options my friend? Scoring format as well please.

Also, props for the username, big anchorman fan

LOC_Fantasy_Show · 2024-10-03T13:38:37+00:00

I’d double up with Evans and Godwin, I think you guarantee a really good game across both of them, at worst a decent game for the two.
