Add Em / Screw Em Week 8 (Part 2)

Add

Travaris Cadet - Pierre Thomas appears to be sidelined for the next 2 to possibly 3 weeks with a shoulder injury, Khiry Robinson is also banged up with a forearm issue.  This will open the door for Cadet to see an increase in reps, and targets.  He catches passes out of the backfield, and is not worth picking up in a non-PPR format.  Past 3 games Cadet has been targeted 20 times, has 15 receptions, 130 yards, and a TD.  That's not bad for someone you probably have never heard of.  With Thomas and Robinson banged up, he could be a good flex option this week and a sneaky play in Draft Kings / Fan Duel.


RG III - Robert Griffin THE 3 RD is currently owned in 35% of Yahoo leagues.  Just 8 short weeks ago, he was being drafted in the 7th round.  Some experts predicted he would finish in the top 5 for QB's by seasons end.  He wont play this week, but I think he will play next week versus Minnesota (kind of nice getting thrown back against a crap D).  I am a believer in RG3, and he should be owned in almost all leagues.  2 years ago he was amazing, if he's on your wire, and you need some QB depth, scoop him up, he wont be sitting there for too long. 


Houston D-  Great bye week D to play this week or if you subscribe to the Defense Roulette strategy.  Houston faces a rookie QB in ZACH METTENBERGER.  JJ Watt my sack this load 4 times by himself.  This is going to get messy, Shonn Greene out, Sankey looks weak, an immobile rookie QB, Houston D could get you 15 Plus points this weekend.


SCREW


Brian Hoyer-  Brian Hoyer is to be dropped.  Hoyer has completed a WHOPPING 43.05% of his passes the past 2 weeks against Pittsburgh and Jacksonville. His QB rating of 46.3 against the Jags is awe inspiring to me.  One of the worst performances from a QB I ve seen in a long time.  Its Johnny football time, its coming.  I tried to get cute in some of my daily lineups by starting Hoyer and Jordan Cameron, and like always, getting cute loses you money.  Brian Hoyer screwed me last week, I'm screwing him this week.. 


Terrance West-  West stepped in when Ben Tate was hurt and got some production: a 100 yard game VS Pittsburgh, and back to back TD performances against New Orleans and Baltimore.  The game VS Baltimore he ran 12 times for 36 yards with that TD.  His numbers since then have been even worse: 12 attempts for 39 yards and nothing else.  This is Ben Tates' job, and even if he goes down (which is very possible) Isiah Crowell is going to be the guy to take off the starting gig.


Markus Wheaton - Wheaton looked like a nice little PPR sleeper in the first few games of the season.  He had nice targets, decent yardage, and some good reception numbers.  The past 3 games he has been so bad that Martavis Bryant has taken his spot on the depth Chart.  If you are a Wheaton owner, swapping him out for Bryant isn't a terrible option if your waiver wire is scarce.
