Will Fuller owners get hit with a right hook from Jake Paul - Dec 1

Dec 01, 2020

Good morning to everyone, especially Nate Robinson and Will Fuller owners, who had a rough weekend.

Week 11 Team of the Week

QB: Patrick Mahomes - The future GOAT continues to impress the world. It amazes me how Mahomes never even seems to make a mistake. Here are some beautiful highlights from Week 12. 31+ fantasy points. Would anyone ever bet against the Chiefs?

RB: Derrick Henry - It was only a matter of time (37+ points). A few weeks back, Henry was top buy in this very same newsletter. Henry must be eating good on thanksgiving, because his historic post-thanksgiving fantasy explosions are legendary:

Scott Barrett @ScottBarrettDFB

Derrick Henry (2016-2019) Before Thanksgiving 🦃 - PPR/G: 9.8 - YPG: 50.9 - YPC: 4.36 After Thanksgiving 🦃 - PPR/G: 16.0 - YPG: 92.1 - YPC: 5.37

WR: Tyreek Hill - Ok Tyreek, I see you. With the second-most PPR points in a single game (57.9) since 2010, Hill won every matchup for his owners. There isn’t much else to say.

TE: Robert Tonyan - One of the rare weeks Travis Kelce is outscored by a fellow TE - and Kelce was outscored by 3 of them - Tonyan takes the cake. Tonyan hauled in all five of his targets for 67 yards and a score. In this economy, we’ll take any TE production we can get.

D/ST: ATL - 24+ points. Just as we all expected, one of the worst fantasy D/STs going up against a good offense absolutely BLEW up. They play the Saints next week and aren’t worth picking up.

K: Sorry Bears fans.

Will Fuller - what could’ve been

Will Fuller announced via Instagram that he's been suspended six games for violating the NFL’s performance-enhancing substances policy. After Fuller was healthy in Week 6 for maybe the first time ever, you’d think the NFL would test him.

Currently set to become an unrestricted free agent in March, Fuller will miss the rest of the 2020 season and sit out Week 1 for whichever franchise he ends up with for the new league year. Week 11 may be the last time we see Fuller in a Texan’s uniform.

Fuller ends his season as a Top10 WR. So what does this mean for your fantasy team? Brandin Cooks and Isaiah Coulter stock up.

Talented Texan’s CB Bradley Roby also tested positive for a banned substance and will miss the remainder of the season. What a mess.

Ravens-Steelers: The Saga Continues

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet

The #Ravens-#Steelers game will be played on Wednesday ... at 3:40 pm on NBC. Likely the only game ever played at that time. More here:

Makes one wonder how far the NFL will push the game before cancelling. I would like to select Tyreek Hill from my opponent's roster as my alternate for Diontae Johnson if Wednesday’s game is canceled.

But it’s not all bad news (unless you are aboard the Gus Bus). Because of the delay, J.K. Dobbins and Mark Ingram may suit up.

Drew Lock’s mom ain’t happy.

Upset over what transpired involving her son Drew, Laura Lock (@LauraLockRocks), tweeted to shame those upset at being forced to watch Kendall Hinton throw one completion for 13 yards.

You can smell the sassiness.

How will waivers work this week?

ESPN is adjusting their waivers to reflect the Wednesday game - read how that will affect your ESPN team here.
Yahoo is adjusting their waivers as well. Players who would typically clear waivers Thursday will now do so far Friday. As for the other sites, try Google - I couldn’t find much info online.

Adam Gase doesn’t want to lose

Jets coach Adam Gase said the team's play-calling is being labeled a "collaborative effort" because he doesn't want to give away too much information for a "competitive disadvantage." Per Rotoworld:

Averaging the league's fewest yards per play (4.6), points per game (13.8), and lowest scoring margin (-15.5) on gamedays, anything Gase claims at this point is strictly headline material for comedic purposes.
