Silent-Trader 403 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 He's on a great team with a balanced offense and defense. As long as he is healthy, set it and forget it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
leebattle 69 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 He's SO fast. He's electric. He should be a YAC machine. They seem to target him on lots of slot, crossing routes. The reality is they also have Juju and Claypool. Claypool is looking like a beast. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
PlayTheWaivers 1,886 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Seems like the most overrated fantasy option right now. So much potential every week yadda yadda problem is this passing offense is nowhere close to electric on normal games when the defense plays well, plus the offense is slow as molasses... I'd love it if Juju was out. Diontae would soar. Link to post Share on other sites

Second one I disagree with the Claypool part. He might be a future beast, but the guy has awful hands right now. I saw at least 3 drops yesterday. I've seen 2 of them games and he dropped at least one the last one as well. Yesterday they were some bad, right through the hands type drops.

Tommy Lee Jones 596 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Claypool couldn’t catch COVID if he was sitting on Big Ben’s lap on the flight home. Diontae’s stock is definitely on the rise in light of these developments. 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

He’s dynamic, but we have to bust his chops a little just for having what appears to be Braylon Edwards disease. Someone get this poor fella some stickum. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

FeastMode 374 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Big Ben on COVID list. Could still return in time for the game Sunday but that’s a concern for the Steeler’s offense. Johnson was somewhat productive as a rookie last year with Rudolph under center, but overall I’d say it would be a concern for Johnson if Ben doesn’t play. Link to post Share on other sites

I am due to bye weeks hoping for targets for DJ and some deep plays for Claypool. I think Burrow will be able to put up points and make it competitive hopefully we don't have a game like last week. Juju can also steal the spotlight and wouldn't be surprised if Washington steals another TD pass Link to post Share on other sites

shakestreet 4,112 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Having too many weapons in Pittsburgh cannot be a good thing for us fantasy owners. JuJu, Johnson Claypool, Connor Ebron & Washington ... Link to post Share on other sites
Travis Burten 982 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Yeah but as long you're the top dog, it doesn't matter if there's 6 weapons or 3. You're gonna eat, it's just the others down the list who have to worry Link to post Share on other sites
ST. STEVEN 4,403 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Should be noted that CIN starting CB (Darius Phillips) is OUT, his direct backup (Sims) is also OUT. Geno Atkins is OUT. Also their nickel corner missed practice all week before returning yesterday. This game is setup as a DJ/Claypool buffet affair...both of them are gonna be working on 3rd stringers plenty. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I started them both last week, and I'm doing it again this week. I don't love it, but If I start one the other will invariably go off on my bench and I don't have other options that I feel great about. Would honestly prefer to trade Diontae if I could because of the number of times he's burnt me this year, but I'm trying not to be emotional about it. Link to post Share on other sites

RunCMC 2,535 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 And John Ross WR on the Bengals, oft injured & always forgotten. The team asked him to convert to corner for this week. Because they're so banged up. In which he gladly accepted .. to finally get some playing time. He hurt himself in practice today. So basically it's a sh1show over there in Cincy. Pittsburgh is going to smash. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I think 2 out of Diontae, JuJu, Claypool will go off. Those are the three primary guys for Pit. Of those 3 , I would feel most confident starting DJ and/or Claypool. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
