Robinson has 5 targets on the season and Thornton has like 4..
They had ok games yesterday, but shouldn't be rosters guys yet IMO.

With Hurts on a bye, I'll need to pick up Mariota, Russ or Fields. Pray for me.
Robinson should 100% be rostered at this point. Maybe even prior to this week. Has the potential to be the #1 WR on the Giants.

That was basically their first games. If you want to wait until they flash more, it will be too late.

No question.
Robinson was hurt in the first game and missed the previous 4 games. Hes their 2nd round pick for a team desperate for WRs. He only played 18 snaps and had like a 35% target share. Hes a little guy, slot type WR for a team that wants to play good defense, run the ball, and have a conservative passing game. He is absolutely a priority pickup this week. Should be a solid flex ROS in PPR.

Weekly plug for Jameson Williams. Hoping to see some practice updates soon.

Have Tua, I picked up Fields for week 6, and I was happy with 18.4

Tonyan might still be available in a league or two.
| @daverichard Robert Tonyan's % of routes run on dropbacks by week: 45% - wk1 48% 64% 60% 54% 76% - wk6 Timing w/ Rodgers was down pat yesterday. With Cobb sidelined, I suspect Tonyan will be involved anytime GB can't run well. |

RB converted to WR
He was a four-star recruit and Mr. Football in the state of Kentucky as a senior at Western Hills High School (6,795 career rushing yards, averaged 11 yards per carry).
"Dale" transferred from Nebraska to Kentucky for the 2021 season to be closer to his hometown of Frankfort -– his grandmother's post-COVID complications were one factor. He excelled at a second-team All-SEC level by ranking third in the country with a school-record 104 receptions that covered 1,334 yards, also a Kentucky record. He scored seven times through the air while rushing for 111 yards (seven carries, 15.9 per att.) and returning punts (6-20-3.3) in 13 games with 12 starts. Robinson was named the 2022 Citrus Bowl MVP (10-170-17.0 receiving), which the Wildcats won over Iowa.

Keep in mind Robinson did what he did on 14 snaps yesterday. I think the Giants could have big plans for him going forward

I think we should probably relax on statements like this. I'm in four leagues and, due to short benches and/or no IRs, he is available in all four. Of the 44 owners in those leagues, I would guess there's just one clunker.

I was happy with Fields too... against Washington.
I would not be in a hurry to start Fields against New England. They will make him look awful.

Hey Buck, Drake will be added but he also will be cut by many the following week. Where's he been for 5 weeks when they needed him?
That's another thing, the Ravens lost and Drake didn't help them win the football game so while I think you are correct that many will grab him, I find this to be just another waiver guy in the following weeks, just my opinion.

New catch phrase for 2022.

Maybe, but i think there's something here. The biggest factor being Dobbins knee? And Drake had 4 carries of 20+ yards.
Kenyan Drake rushed 10 times for 119 yards and one touchdown in the Ravens' Week 6 loss to the Giants, adding one catch for eight additional yards.
Drake turned in an unexpected day on the ground Sunday, getting things started with a 30-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter to give the Ravens their first points on the day. Drake would add three more rushes of 20+ yards on the day and finished with an impressive 11.9 YPC. Sunday marked Drake's best game as a Raven and came in a game that saw J.K. Dobbins (knee) exit early. Dobbins' status will be worth monitoring throughout the week, but Drake should be a popular waiver wire add ahead of Week 7's matchup against the Browns.

He definitely balled out for half a season in Arizona when David Johnson and then Chase Edmonds got hurt. Granted, that was a handful of years ago.
Of course, that was the first time Edmonds disappointed me.

Another light week. No one out there in most leagues that I'd bid anything substantial one. Wouldn't waste waivers position on. If bidding, very minimal for me.

Thornton
Robinson
I'd throw out Kyren Williams if have IR spot and not already picked up. Again, a post-waivers pickup IMO
Another week of being more interested in who may be waived (due to bye weeks) as opposed to guys currently available.

How about Tua?
He looked promising before the back/head injuries and Tyreek & Waddle are on fire.
Will Tua pick up where he left off and be a top 5 QB ROS or will it be a roller coaster full of headaches?
I am thinking of adding him as a bye week replacement for Burrow week 10 and if he happens to outperform Burrow and take over my starting spot that is just lagniappe.

I mentioned him in the weekly thread and I'm not surprised. The Rams have to try and get him involved more, whatever it takes.

I also have Kupp so I see it as a handcuff of sorts. If Kupp goes down, Robinson would be the main beneficiary.

I'm going to have to drop someone for a bye-week QB this week and it'll have to be a WR.
Here are my WRs (start 3 plus a flex):
Chase
Adams
ARSB
-----------
Olave
Pierce
Dotson
Leaning towards dumping Dotson over Pierce. What say you all? The Wentz injury probably makes it even worse, if that's possible, no?
Possible QB pickups:
Dak
Mariota
D. Jones
Russ
Winston/Dalton
Anyone jumping out for week 7?

Alec Pierce, they trusted him to win the game yesterday and he came through. That has to lead to more snaps and usage going forward

I'd keep Dotson over Pierce. Injury an issue obviously, but Dotson is for real, and Heineke might actually play more to his strengths. QB's in the order you listed them.

Dulcich Tight End for Denver
Pretty long TD for a TE and also had another target in the end zone, should have 2 TDs right now.

TD was on a completely blown coverage. Denver offense has done very little otherwise. Proceed with caution

Lead back at least

Would love to believe, but NE seems really tough to bet on WRs for consistency (other than Myers who seems to be relatively decent in ppr.)
ZADO
Footballguy
Well he was a 2nd rd pick for a reason , i expect him to shine at some point,i guess he had one of the fastest 40 yd dash ever? Not sure i read that right lol
I'm in the same boat only don't have Dak or Russ (!) available to me -- leaning Mariota.
zamboni
Footballguy
Definitely a burner, but not sure how many targets he'll get in that run heavy offense and competing with several other (albeit mediocre) WRs. All that said, worth stashing IMO if you have room.
DocHolliday
Footballguy
Russ should be off the list at this point. Danny Dimes may be decent as his WRs return to health. I can’t believe I wrote this post.

Don't think I'm going to bid anything of consequence. Trying to pick the Dallas D back up after dropping them for this week, also picking up Carr to cover Allen's bye, but I don't see it as a week where anyone useful is out there outside of fairly shallow leagues
titusbramble
Footballguy
Yep, although you would think that someone was going to drop him, they'd have done so during last week's waiver run, and the opportunity to pick him up would already have presented itself prior to this weekend's games. That's how I grabbed him anyway

Tua should be out there yes. All signals point to a return.
