I feel that with Sutton too. An element of fantasy is taking consistency, variability and predictability into consideration. Notice how the range for Gaskin is so wide (between .3 points and 32 points) and Mooneys is smaller (between 6.5 points and 19.5 points). On that information alone I would start someone like Mooney every week over Gaskin because I have a better idea of what Im going to get on average. A lot of times people start players or value players based on their upside and that can lead to really big weeks and also really down weeks. But in my opinion upside is only valuable if the floor does not deviate too far below the ceiling on a consistent basis. This is why I would rather have a Landry type of WR over a guy like Desean. Thats just my 2 cents though. I have already decided Im going to start Sutton every week no matter what, especially now that injuries and bye weeks are starting to really settle in.Kurt G.O.A.T. wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 1:35 amthis has been my last 3 weeks.

Re: Week 6 Discussion Thread
So frustrated this afternoon, came home from work a little early (half day since I'm working six), just to watch a little football... first internet is down, had to contact them to refresh (that worked for once, ha!) .. now trying to load up game pass and no middle screen for game selection .. just the bottom of the page to select teams ..
just ugh. Might take a nap ffs.

I needed Henry to underperform to have a chance. Figured it was possible given they were facing Buffalo's defense.
