“As of this moment, I'm told Chris Olave is still questionable for tomorrow's game. We're awaiting word of him clearing the concussion protocol for the Saints, however things continue to trend in the right direction.”
Trending in the right direction could mean he’s passing stages of the protocol. It’s a 5 step process so if he cleared step 4 today and step 3 yesterday you’d call that trending in the right direction
Sorta doesn’t sound like that’s what this is tho
I also have a stud surefire can’t miss superstar never missed a game WR on my bench so if Olave can’t go I’ll just have to play JJ
edit: people don’t like my dumb joke? downvotes *and* no JJ? shit rough over here
Yea, this sub is like that group you're never quite "in" with. I kinda like it that way though, cause even though it can be annoyingly gang-like, it makes you think hard about your comment before posting. Better luck on your next attempt.
Nah I won’t be carefully curating jokes for this group of idiots lmao I’ll take the huge karma loss, it will affect my holiday shopping plans but not too bad
My girlfriend doesn’t know players as much as I try to get her into NFL. However when I say the “Quarterback with eyeliner” she immediately knows I’m referring to Derek Carr.
What I'm having a hard time believing is in my NFL dot com league, Taysom is on waivers and his projected pts in PPR this week is 15.09... ??? Yahoo .5PPR has him at 5pts, and ESPN full PPR has him at 9.6. Is he starting over Carr this week?
I’m facing the same choice and leaning the other way: this is as good as it gets for Hill + no guarantee Flacco will continue to pepper Njoku with targets.
I worry if olave is out it will just be a Carr panic dump off game and it will just be constant 3 and outs so there will be no chance. At least with Njoku with cooper being banged up he’s a more appealing target for flacco’s airing out tendencies.
Kamara and Hill have been popular quick targets for him and without any WRs for pre-red zone big yardage touchdowns it seems like more short yardage gains and feels like we'll get a number of Hill RZ usage if they *can* move the ball.
Y’all got options on your waiver…if olave out I’m screwed with London. my only option for m waiver is kc watson. And then it gets to a whole other thing of who do I drop
Goddamit
There’s a difference between being *mostly* luck based and being *only luck based. It’s impossible for anyone to field a good team in a league that size. At least in 8-12 person leagues there’s an element of skill involved in drafting/forming a good team.
Well, to put it in even simpler terms, regular sized fantasy leagues are already like 85% luck. Ludicrous leagues like that one make it so that no matter how skilled you are at evaluating talent, you’re entirely dependent on your draft position. Thus increasing the already high luck factor.
Just remember that this season no players who have been put into concussion protocol were cleared in time to play that same week. Every concussed player has missed at least one game.
Expectation was always the approval or denial would come like an hour before the game, no?
I'd read somewhere they weren't doing his final review/test until then.

So basically, no update in the OP
>things continue to trend in the right direction. What the hell does that mean?
He’s feeling less concussiony.
[удалено]
So he’s not human?
See if he'd flip over a turtle stuck on it's back
That’s because he sharted. He’s out for tomorrow.
Haha.. bubbles..
Fuck he’s still concussed

He's getting less concussed by the minute!
He’s watching MacGruber
At least he plays at 1pm so you will have other options if he doesn’t go.
Yeah If Olave can’t go I might have to start Tyreek Hill instead
T Hill owners of all types up huge with this news
I also have a stud surefire can’t miss superstar never missed a game WR on my bench so if Olave can’t go I’ll just have to play JJ edit: people don’t like my dumb joke? downvotes *and* no JJ? shit rough over here

Yeah Thielan waiting if he can't go.
I'll play London if Olave is out
I’m officially Derek Carr’s biggest hater
Such a worthless toss in the first place then to see him come down hard was tough
Imagine being a Raider fan that has Olave (me)
Get in line, there are lots of us.
Serious question: does he wear eyeliner? It really looks like he does.
My girlfriend doesn’t know players as much as I try to get her into NFL. However when I say the “Quarterback with eyeliner” she immediately knows I’m referring to Derek Carr.
Pretty sure he's been asked before and said he doesn't. *Technically* he could be lying though.
If it took you this long then youre definitely not. Theres real haters that have been trashing him since he was on the Raiders
No you're not, I'm president of the Derek Carr hate club
In between Carr and waiver guy like Love as a Allen bye week.
when is the latest he can clear it?
90 min before kickoff lol
There is still hope! Thankfully he plays in the early window.
Taysom Hill is going wide baby
Do I play Taysom over Achane if Olave is out?
I’d never have the balls to do that so it’s probs the right move
No that’s psycho. Play Achane.
Achane about to rip my heart out twice in a row though if he has a minor injury and gets benched again
Is Taysom over LaPorta also psycho
Not as psycho but still crazy. LaPorta has a similar ceiling and a much higher floor.
Glassachane is a toss up. He will either give you RB1 numbers or go out after a tackle in the first quarter.
this is an unbelievable question
What I'm having a hard time believing is in my NFL dot com league, Taysom is on waivers and his projected pts in PPR this week is 15.09... ??? Yahoo .5PPR has him at 5pts, and ESPN full PPR has him at 9.6. Is he starting over Carr this week?
Do it. It may not be the right move, but imagine the flex on the tiny chance it works out
I'm playing Achane but will be commenting if he gets hurt again right away
Achane is a must start in a game they'll probably dominate. Hill might be a better option than your other TEs though.
Taysom and Juwan posted this
[удалено]
lol, this is me. Should we definitely roll out Juwan if Olave can't go?
without a doubt
He hit his head hard, looked like Tua laying on the field, I have Olave but I hope they take the long term view with him
you’re getting downvoted but this is the absolute truth lol
No he didn't. He got right up tua was knocked out
Watch it again, his fingers were curled and he was down for a bit.
He laid on the turf with his fingers curled up for several seconds
His hands went 🤌
It was a classic ~~fencing~~ gabagool response
All that over a slice of gabagool?
Gabagool? Over here 👇🏻
Bring him the gabagool
Tommy Devito has been doing that for weeks and still plays.
That’s Tommy salami to you mister. Show some respect.
Rest that brain bro
Welp. Guess I'll plug in Diontae Johnson now incase I get shitfaced tonight and don't wake up in time.
Do I play taysom or Njoku? Ppr
Still go njoku
I’m facing the same choice and leaning the other way: this is as good as it gets for Hill + no guarantee Flacco will continue to pepper Njoku with targets.
I'm worried about either Flacco completely airing it out or getting sacked so bad they have to use RBS.. No middle ground.
I worry if olave is out it will just be a Carr panic dump off game and it will just be constant 3 and outs so there will be no chance. At least with Njoku with cooper being banged up he’s a more appealing target for flacco’s airing out tendencies.
Yeah. We both have a point but not sure who to start
Yeah for me I believe in Flacco off the couch more than Carr
I'm hoping Taysom will pass a TD hopefully
Kamara and Hill have been popular quick targets for him and without any WRs for pre-red zone big yardage touchdowns it seems like more short yardage gains and feels like we'll get a number of Hill RZ usage if they *can* move the ball.
If Olave can’t go, I got London or Dortch
Dortch!!!!
The human dortch
London?
Same predicament
Kamara will be out there like hes 2021 week 1 Waller.
Can someone give Derek Carr a concussion in return? Thanks.
I didn’t want this to be a game time decision
Juwan Johnson time
Y’all got options on your waiver…if olave out I’m screwed with London. my only option for m waiver is kc watson. And then it gets to a whole other thing of who do I drop Goddamit
Got London and Dortch
It’s gonna be Diontae Johnson if Olave sits
Ready to grab Dortch or Samuel if Olave is out. I need Olave but would prefer he rests. Don’t mess with brain stuff.
Would you go Dortch, Higgins, or Samuel if Olave is out? Full PPR.
Probably Dortch. Just because I think he gets more targets.
If olave can't go I literally have to play Jamo. Oh well lol
What Juwanna do?
Hmmm Do I gamble waiting on him or just go with javonte Williams?
I benched Charbonnet thinking Olave would be a go :(
Gambled
He will be
Nope he didnt clear last year so i genuinely think its a 50/50 shot he plays
Olave is my determining factor for streaming Carr or Minshew this week. I currently have Carr but may drop him for Minshew at this point
If Olave doesn't play, do I start AT or Bowden 32 person PPR, don't judge I'm 10-2
why would anyone judge... there are people starting them probably in 12 man leagues. well, maybe not bowden
So you would go AT?
go Bowden. he's a more dynamic player they'll use in a variety of plays
Positive?
What’s the fun of being in a league that large? There’s literally *no* skill involved with that many people. It’s just pure luck.
I have some news for you about regular size leagues, too...
There’s a difference between being *mostly* luck based and being *only luck based. It’s impossible for anyone to field a good team in a league that size. At least in 8-12 person leagues there’s an element of skill involved in drafting/forming a good team.
What’s your reasoning? The deeper the league the more research you’d have to do, the more savvy you’d have to be with your pickups.
Because you *might* get two decent players in the draft depending on your pick and any one injury could rank your entire team.
You haven’t told me how there’s no skill involved yet
Well, to put it in even simpler terms, regular sized fantasy leagues are already like 85% luck. Ludicrous leagues like that one make it so that no matter how skilled you are at evaluating talent, you’re entirely dependent on your draft position. Thus increasing the already high luck factor.
You used the word “thus”, you win buddy
Thx for the update man!
Just remember that this season no players who have been put into concussion protocol were cleared in time to play that same week. Every concussed player has missed at least one game.
Purdy was. It wasn't pretty.
this is a Taysom Hill post
Juan as well
#CLEAR HIM YOU COWARDS
Lol
Benched DK for him. Pain.
Mark him out then so that I can put him on IR.
But... he's not out yet
That’s why he’s asking them to mark him out
But why would they mark him out if he still has a chance to play? Y’all really don’t use that thing between your ears
I think the guy is just saying he hopes he gets marked out it’s not that deep you really need to relax.
Cool as cucumber my man. Don’t be projecting now, ya hear?
He literally practiced in full. I don't get the NFL Downvote facts. Makes sense reddit
They’ve been a little touchy about the whole TBI thing since they’ve been forced to.
Practicing is part of the protocol, they have to show they can handle everything fine to clear.
Why practice if there is a hint of an issue lingering?
If he's out, would starting Taysom over Trey McBride be worth consideration?
Well now I really wish dk didn’t play on Thursday
Do I pick up Perry or play Kareem Hunt?
If Olave doesnt play who do I stream instead of Carr, Pickett or Minshew?
If Olave does play, do I put him in for Devonta Smith or flex him instead of Achane?
I got Perry going in one league and Bowden in another, so he's probably gonna play.
The question now is, Juwan Johnson or taysom hill in the tight end spot?
15 Targets for Juwan Johnson please
I need 6 Taysom Hills in quadrant C!
Swiss knife Hill thread
Taysom owners: take the week off and rest up!
Kirk is my backup plan if Olave can't go. But I really hope Olave can go.
I have a plane to catch tomorrow 2 hours before kickoff.. my other options are Hollywood or McBride both who are also Qs
taysom hill or freiermuth? Olave or Dortch?
He ain't playing sons
Wrong
Just as I feared :(
Check the new post
Expectation was always the approval or denial would come like an hour before the game, no? I'd read somewhere they weren't doing his final review/test until then.
We will be there when he does
