What's happening, everyone! Thanks for taking time out of your day to chat with me. I'll try to get to as many as I can. If you have a question after this is all done, make sure you check out The Primer that has a paragraph on every player from every game.

I have Aaron Rodgers as my QB and Philip Rivers as backup.....should I trade Rivers for Minshew?
Mike Tagliere
2:04
Trading backups? Sure... I'd rather have Minshew.

Hey Mike :)
i have a headache cause of my QB situation... I drafted Wentz at first and Burrow in the late rounds as my upside player... now both seem to have the same issues with the bad offensive lines... Can i still trust Wentz or do i need to worry and look for somebody else? Unfortunately most of the promising QBs are already rostered... Is there any QB you can recommend? Maybe Minshew? Or should i be patient and go ahead with Wentz?
Tks in advance for your guidance and greetings from Frankfurt, Germany

I'd actually trust Burrow this week considering their matchups. If the Browns don't get pressure on Burrow, they don't have the talent to stop their receivers in the secondary. Burrow also offers a rushing floor.

Hey Guys, would you start Hines over Hilton this Week?
Mike Tagliere
2:05
Hines has the more stable floor, but Hilton comes with the higher ceiling in this matchup. Depends on what you're looking for in your roster.

Hi, Mike. McLaurin, Chark, Hunt in ppr. Pick two! Also, Rams or Chiefs D? Thank you!
Mike Tagliere
2:06
Hey! I'd be playing Chark for sure. The other one is tough, though I'll lean with Hunt and the guaranteed touches. McLaurin will likely be shadowed by Patrick Peterson this week.
Adrian
2:06
Should I trade Marquise Brown and Cam Akers for Nick Chubb? Half PPR
Mike Tagliere
2:06
If you don't need Brown in your starting lineup, yes.
Oliver
2:06
Hey man! Thanks for helping me win my week 1! Full PPR ; Boyd or Montgomery? Hurst or Hockenson ? Stafford or Tannehill? Thank you
Mike Tagliere
2:07
I'd be rolling with Boyd in a full PPR. His matchup this week is great. If Monty doesn't score a touchdown, he's not going to finish as a top-24 RB. Hurst and Hock is a coinflip, but I have Hurst one spot higher. I likely go with Tannehill there.
Darren
2:07
Should I trade David Johnson for JuJu in 0.5 PPR
Mike Tagliere
2:08
I'll take JuJu. Johnson looked good, but he won't play the Chiefs run defense every week.
Steve B
2:08
Are you dropping Christian Kirk for Parris Campbell for the rest of the season?
Mike Tagliere
2:08
I'm not quite there, but if Kirk finishes with less than five targets in this game, I'll drop him.
Cody C.
2:09
Do you see D'Andre Swift's redzone snap count/pass target share decreasing after his Week 1 game-losing drop?
Mike Tagliere
2:09
I don't. They drafted him in the 2nd round and can't allow him to lose confidence. This is the time they need to show they support him as a young player. With that being said, it's a timeshare with Peterson who looked good.
Guest

Tags - are you dropping John Ross, or still holding out hope?
Mike Tagliere
2:10
I'm holding out hope. The Chargers have the best cornerback duo in the NFL.
Stephen
2:10
pick 2 to start, half ppr. OBJ, Diggs, Chark
Mike Tagliere
2:10
I'm rolling with OBJ and Chark there. Diggs' matchup against the Dolphins is no longer a cakewalk for WRs.
Kevin
2:11
Hey Tags! Start Hooper or Jonnu at TE? Thank you!
Mike Tagliere
2:11
Hey Kevin! This week I'm going with Hooper. Now that Njoku is out and the only other alternative is a rookie TE, he's going to get the targets. On top of that, Landry might be limited tonight.
Guest
2:11
Someone dropped Akers in my league. Should I drop either Boston Scott or Benny Snell to snag him (I have Conner, so this doesn't seem like the best option)?
Mike Tagliere
2:12
Yes, I would drop Scott for him.
Guest

Happy Birthday, Tags!  In the high-dollar league I'm in, we have some quirky roster rules (and standard scoring, but WR touchdowns are only worth 3 pts to the WR, and 3pts to the QB).  We must roster exactly 4 WR, and play 2 each week.  WR is my weak position. I have Robert Woods, Tyler Boyd, Diontae Johnson, and Jerry Judy. As this is a keeper league, I took a flyer on Jerry Judy.  Should I drop Boyd or Johnson to pick up Parris Campbell?
Mike Tagliere
2:13
Thank you! Nope, do not drop those guys. Boyd will bounce back and Johnson is going to be a stud for years.
Sean
2:13
K. Hunt or Z. Moss flex this week? (12-team standard)
Mike Tagliere
2:13
They're both in similar situations, though Hunt is the more talented back. I think there's enough for both Chubb and him to do well here.
Botikus
2:13
PPR League - start CeeDee Lamb or Kareem Hunt?
Mike Tagliere
2:14
This is close, but I'll take the guaranteed touches with Hunt. Worse case scenario is that he gets 10 touches. As for Lamb, both Gallup and Cooper have cake matchups. He could be the odd man out this week, though he'll still likely produce.
Guest
2:14
With Le'Veon Bell (my RB2) out 3 weeks, who should I roll with going forward, or at least for this week? I have Zach Moss and Dobbins on my bench, and just picked up Benny Snell Jr. in case Connor misses time.
Mike Tagliere
2:15
I'd play Moss, though expert consensus says Dobbins is the play. I don't quite get it as he had just seven touches in that game, which was a blowout. If he didnt score, he wouldn't be more than a handcuff. It's possible he gets more, but we at least know Moss is in a 55/45 split with goal-line duties.
Guest
2:16
Pick 3 for this week: Woods, Diggs, Davante Parker, Jamison Crowder, Anthony Miller, and Tre'quan. Thank You!
Mike Tagliere
2:17
It seems like the choice may be made for you, as Crowder and Parker may not play. Woods has to be in with his target share, even in a tough matchup. Diggs has a tough one, but with John Brown nicked up, we should see six-plus targets. Miller against NYG should be a good one, but he's sadly still not a full-time player. Those would still be my three.
Peter
2:17
Hi...would you drop Djax for Parris Campbell? Also, is Logan Thomas a better option than Herndon?
Mike Tagliere
2:18
I think there's a strong case to be made for that, yeah. Thomas isn't a better option, though they're in the same tier this week. I prefer Herndon, as we've just seen it more with him.
Guest

Metcalf or Fuller this week?
