Extreme Values. Miracle dependent plays. One-off shots off the beaten path!
You’ll need a few beers or a stiff pour of bourbon to stomach these picks…
I am going to concentrate on just a guy or two for each position.
Tipsy QBs
Philip Rivers @ PIT $5,600 (1.6%)
The Steelers are clearly a bit broken, but I still like them to compete at home. They can’t possibly be as bad as they have been, can they? So in a game I believe has a chance to be a sneaky high scoring affair, I like both QBs!
Ben Roethlisberger vs IND $6,400 (2.4%)
See above. I like this game. THey don;t have a running game and if the ship is being righted its from 4 TD throws by Big Ben.
Tipsy RBs
Gus Edwards $4,400 @ NYG (0.1%)
Coming back to Edwards again at even less ownership. He saw 11 touches for 80 yards last week and looking to do the same again but get that sneaky goal line TD carry.
Other Cost Saving Options:
*Wayne Galman- getting the looks, but a tough match up will make him practically unowned.
*Gio Bernard- will be higher owned than I like but start a build with he and Green and you have unlimited funds!
Tipsy WRs
Chad Hansen $5,600 vs CIN (1.2%)
Since Fuller’s suspension Hansen has been the most consistent part of the WR corp even in bad matchups. I don’t think CIN has another win in them but Houston’s defense gives up so much production that they will probably still have to press the attack.
Michael Pittman $4,200 @ PIT (1.3%)
I already said I like Rivers this week and I am hoping that it will be on the the shoulders of a few big catches by Pittman.
Other Cost Saving Options:
A.J. Green- Boyd is out, Allen is back.
Keelan Cole – Back to Glennon and J Rob is banged up, bodes well for the JAX passing game.
Salary Saving TEs
Gerald Everett- $2,800 going to run some serious routes against Seattle
Cole Kmet- $3,000 back at him again.
Defense ValuesWAS $3000 – solid choice, solid price.
