If you are still reading, I assume that you have made it to your league championship game or are really, REALLY bored. I hope it’s the former and you are playing to win it all in Week 17. Remember, there are three games on Christmas Day, so get your lineup set early so you do not forget.
This column will not feature the normal list of waiver names since there are only two teams alive in your league, and you do not need my help to check the wire for names. So, this week, I am offering an AMA or Ask Me Anything article. Start/Sit, Dynasty, etc. are all welcome this week, so bring it.
Do not forget the @Razzball NFL team of writers will be hosting our Sunday Morning Start/Sit podcast every week starting three hours before kickoff all the way up to the official start of the early games. Sky – @SkyGuasco, Derek – @Derek_Favret, Jeff @Jefferson__21, Dave @crewswe128 and me/Matt – @stiles08, will be answering all your questions to help you win your weekly matchups. Come for the analysis and stay for the laughs!

Hey Matt, I need some advice on TE in full PPR for the finals. I currently have Parkinson and put in a claim for Taysom Hill. If I don’t get Hill, who should I go with? Other options are Tonges (if Kittle out), Okonkwo/Helm, Engram, Hockenson, Otton, Freiermuth, and Terrance Ferguson (is he a better play than Parkinson?).
Also, which defense should I roll with? Currently thinking LAR (@ ATL) in one league and PIT (@ CLE) in another, but NO (@ TEN) and JAX (@ IND) are also available.
Jonas,
Your question published twice for some odd reason. I addressed it below

Hi Stiles,
Thanks for your articles this year.uch appreciated. Not needed much help until now ….
10 team PPR. In that Championship game ….
QB Burrow
RB Etienne, Cook
WR Jefferson, JSN
TE Goedert
DST Pats
2 Flex Williams (DAL), DeVonta
BN Corum, Adams, Wilson, Eagles, Estime, Montgomery
IR Nabers
Start 2 RB, 2 WR and 2 Flex.. bit worried about JJ given the news on his QB.
Dropping Adams for a very speculative add on Rhamondre Stevenson (hoping Henderson is ruled out). Good move ? Or drop Estime ?
If Henderson is out is Stevenson a must start ? Over Williams ? DeVonta ?
Dan
Dan,
Welcome in. Let’s get this done!
I like the lineup until I hit Jefferson much like you mention. I would play Michael Wilson over Jefferson in a game ARI will need to throw. That, and, they have no running game to speak of places Wilson in a good fantasy spot.
I can see dripping Estime or Monty for Stevenson. He would be an immediate FLEX play for me with Henderson OUT. I would FLEX J Williams as the second option with Devonta probably being a home run swing.
Good luck!
-Stiles-
Thanks for that.
Fingers crossed.
Dan
You are welcome. Best of luck.

Jonas,
All great questions. These are tough calls especially in a winner take all game.
I think I like Parkinson over Ferguson in a bounce back fo Colby. Over the past 7 weeks he is PPR TE6 and Ferguson is nowhere close to that level. If Kittle rests his ankle, I prefer Tonges over all other names. He was really good when Kittle missed time earlier this season.
I am rolling with the Saints this week but have no issue with any of the defenses you have listed.

Thanks for the quality content all year! Facing the guy with TLaw, Puka, Barkley, McConkey, Jameson & Javonte Williams, Ferguson and Browns DEF this week (Yahoo Standard scoring);
I’m rolling with:
QB – Dak
WR – London & Sutton
RB – Cook & Hampton
TE – Henry
K – Aubrey
DEF – Pats
BN – J.Jacobs, DavontaSmith, Mayfield, Monganai, Rice, Kamara , Stevenson & T.Hill
Should be a close one!
Dom!!!! Welcome back in to the column.
Love to hear that you are still fighting for the title. I lik the squad and think you have the most optimal lineup in place.
Best of luck!

Thank you and appreciate the guidance along the way! The other post didn’t seem to go through, but I am flexing M.Wilson as well. Hope you had a good season alroo!
