** Post-Week 5 // Pre-Week 6 #fantasyfootball thread **

Weeks 1-5 reinforced that one of the top commonalities between real life & fantasy football is we’re all trying to win battle of attrition.

In season-long FF, churning the end of benches is critical to winning that war.
QB Thoughts:

My personal Top 6 in NFL MVP race through 5 games:

Lamar Jackson
Kyler Murray
Tom Brady
Justin Herbert
Dak Prescott
Josh Allen

* In sports betting, this looks like a buy-low window for Patrick Mahomes, whose odds have lengthened amid #Chiefs early struggles.
RB Thoughts:

* Elijah Mitchell plays @ different speed than Trey Sermon

* AJ Dillon gonna be solid RB2/flx next 2 months

* I way undersold Zack Moss. Growing role + #Bills legit DEF + Charmin-soft schedule put Moss in great spot

* Must-stash: Marlon Mack & Rhamondre Stevenson
WR Thoughts:

* Buy-low time on Cal Ridley, AJ Brown. Their drafters are likely struggling, frustrated, want to blow it up. Pounce

* Still fading Allen Robinson in extreme low-vol pass off

* Old-school YR3 breakout for Marquise Brown

* Quez Watkins may be passing Jalen Reagor
TE Thoughts:

* Add D Parham in TE prem lgs. Route volume not there but playing lots behind dusted Jared Cook in great off & keeps flashing

* Hunter Henry has passed Jonnu Smith as #Patriots receiving TE. Jonnu blocked 80% of Week 5 snaps

* Maxx Will year ender ++ Rondale Moore
Random Thoughts:

* Antonio Brown looks uncoverable at every level of field again
* TNF has Kenny Gainwell Game written all over it
* Kyle Shanahan resume of trading up for skill-position players with #49ers is looking f-ing brutal.

Personnel stuff was also his dad’s No. 1 flaw
