Taysom Hill

[cdogge 17]

Can we talk about him? He's a QB/TE in most leagues.... obviously nobody is playing him at QB.... but the TE position is a joke in general. Who do you play him over?

[gcmmidwest 147]

He's a chicken one week ...feathers the next ...kinda player...gamble responsibly for more help 1800betsoff

[cdogge 17]

I guess my point is... he doesn't need a lot of work to be a decent fantasy scorer each week. Seems like his floor is very solid. Again considering the state of TE's

[makindollaz 51]

I’m targeting him in 12+ team leagues this week.  Saints are going to give him touches each week, and is he really a worse option than someone in the 10-20 range for TE’s?  I won’t start him but could be a bye week FLEX at some point.

[AxeElf 787]

In my heavily run-favored scoring league, Hill was the top scoring TE this week, and outscored all but 6 QBs (in a league where up to 3 QBs can be started--make that 4 if you start Hill as a TE--lol).

Someone dropped him in the preseason, and I picked him up; kinda glad that I did.

[ZeroTolerance 583]

I finished second in points in week 1, so no shot I get him on waivers.

Don'tcha know if you have one of those antiquated worst-to-first waivers systems, you're supposed to tank Week 1 so you can scoop up the best free agent that emerges for Week 2.

[jrokh 596]

I have a low Faab bid on him, doubt I get him, but like him as a # 2.

I am in the same boat.  normally I dont carry 2 TE but I have Kmet who had a lackluster week 1.   granted.... it was a monsoon, but a little insurance isnt a terrible thing if I can get him at a reasonable price.

Ok so you nailed my position... I like Kmet... only because I ignored TE's for basically the entire draft. But I agree it wasn't a good example this week. 

But... here we are. I doubt Kmet does anything to make me regret the decision of replacing him... but here we are. 

[DrG 102]

Boom bust with some long odd lotto potential. I’m waiting to see him work as a returner also

Man, I would have had to throw my draft to tank. I ended up with 2nd most points while my top 2 scoring RBs (Hunt, Patterson) and TE (Okwuebunam) were on the bench.

[weepaws 3,006]

Some weeks he’ll make a good stream, like last week.  Tough one to pick up and count on weekly. 

[cdogge 17]

You think so? I just need a 5 point floor and I'm good... Again... who else you got?

[weepaws 3,006]

I’m looking at Everett this weekend.  

But I do own Freiermuth on two teams, so I’m keeping him for know, but I have Engram on the other two, Everett still available in those two leagues, I’m looking at FAAB on him.  

Thanks. 

[gitrdun 18]

How about in a 2 TE league. Is he a must add? I have Goedert, kmet and Njoku.

[polecatt 471]

If you need TE help, I think he would be a decent option.

He may have a crap week, but what TE outside of the top 2-3 or so don't?

He's got a good chance of some carries, and even throwing a pass or two. They will probably result in a big plays or scores in the red zone.

There's even the outside chance Wintson is knocked out and he fills in at QB.

[DrG 102]

Added him in my leagues - is as much a potential winning lottery ticket as anyone else. 

[ZeroTolerance 583]

No one else put in a claim. Considering the two TEs I already had have low floors themselves, he is worth the shot.

I'm taking a chance on Everett this week.  Drafted Kmet.

[taco breath 424]

just paid 1/4 my faab budget for him, 

[easilyscan 715]

So let's say Winston goes down (a distinct possibility SEE BELOW) is relieved by Dalton, but Andy goes down as well.

In comes Tayson. If you're in one of those leagues that designates him QB/TE, someone has him on the bench, plugs him in as a TE & kicks your arse,  R U pissed ?

Easyscan - probably you will have some owners who will ask the commish to intervene. There is also the risk yahoo adjusts his designation on its own

Wait I have one, what happens if Winston goes down, and Hill is the next one up, and he goes down, I would be pissed if it is indeed Dalton that beats me.

i doubt yahoo would change anything mid season.

cant piss off your clients, there are plenty of free league managers out there.

[DrG 102]

I outbid 5 others for hill in one of my leagues so if they turnaround and complain, no bueno.

[jrokh 596]

Who's rolling with him today? Kamara is out, which should lead to a few more touches, especially around the goal line. I am putting him in over the Hoch. Could be the wrong move, but when I saw Taysom was the #3 priced TE on FanDuel's main slate, I made the move. 

[DrG 102]

Rolling w Goedert, but he remains a potential lotto ticket. Might function as goal line rb today, good dice roll if you need him

My opponent is rolling with him over Kmet, Hill will get more goalline looks, so I'm hoping for the best

Rule #1 about NFL since 2019... if you're counting on a RB breaking out, make sure they're not playing Tampa... or the Rams.

[gridirongoofs 124]

No disrespect to the man, Hill is a circus act for ffb? I took a chance on him last week because I had Kmet and Kamara. No regrets.

I think that's more of a combination of things than playing against a great run stopping defense.
