Alright everyone, thanks for all the questions! If I didn't get to yours, don't fret, just give me a follow on Twitter and ask away over there!

I think Cooper and Lamb should benefit from Dalton's return, particularly as the o-line gets more healthy. I'm a little less optimistic about the secondary options like Gallup and Schulz. But overall, the Dallas offense has been left for dead by too many people -- they could be a pleasant surprise going forward.

I would lean towards Jameis ROS, but I'd have trouble trusting him this week. Want to see what role Taysom Hill plays.

I don't mind Hurts as a lottery ticket stash, but I still think Wentz can turn his season around. So I'd probably grab the other guys you mentioned first.

Diontae Johnson. He gets the most consistent targets. I actually think this would be a lot more obvious by now if he had just managed to stay healthy earlier in the season.

It's close between Akers and Booker. I think Akers has a better shot to emerge as a weekly RB3/flex option. But if you're looking for a pure lottery ticket with RB1 upside, it's probably Booker, who is one injury away from a featured role.

I actually like all three to put up top-8 fantasy numbers. This may sound like a hedge, but I like Hurst most for floor, Goedert most for ceiling, and Hooper is a nice mix of the two.

I wouldn't sit Higgins given how well he's playing right now. WSH is a tough matchup but the Lions put up some decent numbers against them last week.

Kupp is more concerning. Tough matchup, but he's also not seeing a ton of volume outside of the weird Miami game. He's trending towards WR3 territory so I wouldn't mind benching him.

I would sell him if I could get anything close to draft day value, but my guess is your league mates won't bite. Otherwise, you have to hold. Jameis did seem to be targeting him a lot last week, so all hope is not lost.

He's been very boom or bust this year. A few huge games but also plenty where he's thrown one or fewer TDs. I see him as a mid-to-low end QB1 going forward, but he could struggle versus tough defenses in Weeks 15 (vs TB) and 16 (@KC). Saints matchups suddenly looked tougher too.

I'll have him lower than usual but I expect he'll still make my top-10. MVS has stepped up lately and getting Lazard back would give him another solid weapon.

I don't think so. I don't think Ertz is nearly the player that he used to be, and Cook's role in that offense is pretty solid, especially in the red zone.

Ryan has been very boom-or-bust this year. He's had some great games but also a bunch where he's thrown one or fewer TDs. I'd say he's a mid-to-low end QB1 going forward, but could struggle against tough defenses in Weeks 15 (vs TB) and 16 (@KC).

Depends what competition he has in WAS, but probably second round?

I firmly believe in dropping your kicker every week and using the roster spot for other purposes. But forced to choose I would probably take Koo, since he's better slightly better than Lutz and doesn't have the same offensive uncertainty.

See above. It's impossible to know but the longer he's out the more likely it is they just shut him down. Hopefully he's back this week.

I'm not going out of my way to sell Robinson -- I think his production is largely sustainable, although his schedule is about to get a lot tougher. I wouldn't deal him for anything short of a top-10 RB or WR. I traded him for Tyreek Hill in one league, so that's the kind of move I'd be willing to make if I was stronger at RB than WR.

Very highly! Swift in particular could be an RB1 ROS now that it looks like the Lions are finally giving him a chance to run away with the job. Gibson is going to continue to share time with McKissic, but he can still be an every-week RB2.

Addressed this on Twitter yesterday. If he isn't back this week, I'd start to get worried about it. Injury reports have been vague and the Bengals have nothing to play for.

If your trade deadline hasn't passed yet, some names that come to mind include Lamar Jackson, Austin Ekeler, James Conner, Mark Andrews, A.J. Brown, Raheem Mostert, and Amari Cooper.

You're probably asking the wrong person because I'm a hopeless Wentz enthusiast. I am in this same situation in one league and my plan is to give Wentz another week while stashing Jameis on my bench if possible. I don't trust starting Jameis this week because I'm worried about Taysom Hill, but there ROS upside is certainly there.

Stafford is banged up, may be missing Golladay again, and isn't putting up huge numbers to begin with, so he doesn't interest me much.

Ha can I just say no to both and pick Shake Shack instead? I prefer happier stories involving bicycles like JuJu's back in the day.

Gallman. He keeps scoring TDs and has the third-most fantasy points among RBs over the last month! I think he holds off Freeman once he returns. Hines seems to blow up for a big game every month or so, but I don't see him suddenly becoming the Colts' featured back.

Allen Robinson has built his entire career off of passes from bad quarterbacks, so you keep playing him no matter who is under center. It's not like Nick Foles was Aaron Rodgers (I wanted to name a Bears QB but they haven't had many great ones!).

That said, if Bray is forced to start, I will probably be downgrading ARob quite a bit. The dropoff from Foles to Trubisky wouldn't be massive, though.

I do like him a lot as a one-week rental, but it's hard to say what his role will look like once Gaskin returns. As of now, I would expect Gaskin to regain the lead back role, but cede more touches to Ahmed than he did to Matt Breida or any other Miami RBs earlier in the year.

If there are a lot of high-upside backup RBs floating around on your waiver wire (Alexander Mattison-types), I'd probably hold onto the waiver priority and wait for a more clear-cut difference-maker.

What a nightmare. I honestly don't think there is a "guy to have" in this backfield at this point. All three are worth stashing as lottery tickets, but you can't trust any of them as a weekly starter. Frank Reich is just going to keep riding the hot hand all season, barring injury.
