In this Start Em / Sit Em column each week, I'm looking to find some fringe players that you might consider starting each week and comment based on their matchups. Early on, I'll base my selection of candidates on where they were with respect to ADP. I'm not going to try to pad my stats by suggesting your start Josh Allen each week, but instead trying to dig deep and find some nuggets for players to avoid or to go after. These are coin flip guys and if I can finish the year at better than 60% I'll consider it a success. My metrics to get the start decision are: QB 20 pts or more, RB, WR or TE need to score 12 pts or more for a successful endorsement. Defense/Special Teams should put in 8 points or more to get those picks right. I'll look at ~3 players on each Thursday night's game and ~ 6 players for the rest of the week to get you going.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Player Pos Team Opponent Start / Sit Comment
Hayden Hurst TE CIN MIA START I'm going to roll with Hurst in leagues that you are looking for streaming options. Miami has had a tough time vs TEs this year. Baltimore's Andrews had a big day against them, but they also let up over 10 points in both weeks 1 and 3 to NE and Buffalo.
Chase Edmonds RB MIA CIN SIT I don't get a great feeling for eitehr RB options here. I don't like it as a positive script which should hurt Moster's usage, but they're also not throwing the ball to Edmonds much. He got 2 TDs last week (rushing) but that's not likely to repeat. I'd look elsewhere for better options given the injuries around the league you might have some options.
