D-Man’s Week 12 Fantasy Football Friday, Sunday, & Monday Report. By: Dan Schreiber
Hello everyone, I’m Dan “D-Man” Schreiber who works for Empty The Bench Podcast Network. I’m going to explain based on my three fantasy football PPR teams what players you should start and bench for the week 12 Friday, Sunday, and Monday matchups. Besides my three teams, I'm going to discuss other players to start. I will discuss what players to bench that wouldn't be best to start and because of bye weeks as well. I'll let you know also what players not to start because of injuries and bye weeks.
Players based on my three fantasy teams that i'm starting:
Team 1
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Derrick Henry & Raheem Mostert
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown (Already Played Thursday)
DJ Moore
TE: Michael Mayer
W/R/T: Nico Collins
DEF: Chiefs
K: Brandon Aubrey (Already Played Thursday)
Team 2
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Austin Ekeler & Alvin Kamara
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown (Already Played Thursday)
Chris Olave
TE: Dalton Schultz
W/R/T: Rhamondre Stevenson
DEF: Bills
K: Dustin Hopkins
Team 3
QB: Trevor Lawrence
RB: Bijan Robinson & Travis Etienne
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown (Already Played Thursday)
Chris Godwin
TE: Michael Mayer
W/R/T: Isiah Pacheco
DEF: Chiefs
K: Dustin Hopkins
-I’m really hoping WR Chris Godwin starts this week since he’s my main WR and he’s questionable to start due to a knee/elbow injury. If Godwin doesn’t start, i'll start my backup WR Marquise Brown if he is able to start. What sucks is Brown is also questionable to start due to a heel injury. If Brown ends up not starting, I just picked up WR Demario Douglas in free agency. I think Douglas is becoming a great player because he’s starting to become the Patriots main WR. He’s also not bad fantasy point production wise and definitely a good sleeper to pick up in free agency. If you are looking for a WR in free agency, I definitely recommend picking Douglas.
Players based on my three fantasy teams I don’t feel best to start, injuries, and bye weeks:
Team 1
RB: Dameon Pierce, Jerome Ford, and Tyjae Spears
TE: Dallas Goedert
DEF: Browns
Team 2
QB: Jared Goff (Already Played Thursday)
RB: Brian Robinson (Already Played Thursday)
WR: Terry McLaurin (Already Played Thursday)
Christian Kirk
DEF: Bills
Team 3
