D-Man's Week 6 Fantasy Football Sunday Report By: Dan Schreiber
I am Dan "D-Man" Schreiber from the Empty The Bench Podcast Network. Based on my three fantasy football PPR teams, I will explain what players to start and bench for the week 6 Sunday games. Based on my three teams, I will also discuss my week 6 Sunday waiver player pickups. Besides my three teams, I will discuss what players to start and bench for the week 6 Sunday matchups for PPR leagues. I will also let you know what players should not start if they may or may not play because of injuries.
Players based on the three fantasy football teams that I'm starting:
Team 1
QB: Trevor Lawrence
RB: Bijan Robinson & Travis Etienne
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown & Chris Godwin
TE: Dallas Goedert
Flex: Isiah Pacheco (Played already Thursday)
DEF: Saints
K: Jake Moody
Bench: James Cook, Tanks Bigsby, Marquise Brown, Jameson Williams, and DEF Browns
Waivers: Picked up the Saints DEF and dropped the Lions DEF
-I feel it was better to pick up the Saints DEF because they will have better upside in their matchup than the Lions matchup. I recommend picking up the Saints DEF if they are available in free agency.
-I'm benching the Browns defense because they are vs. a great 49ers offense. The Browns are a good defense. I feel the Browns will have a hard time stopping the 49ers offense. This is why I recommend benching the Browns defense this week.
Team 2
2 / 3
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Derrick Henry & Raheem Mostert
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown & DJ Moore
TE: Dallas Goedert
Flex: Nico Collins
DEF: Chiefs (Played already Thursday)
K: Jake Moody
Bench: Dameon Pierce, C.J. Stroud, Jerome Ford, Tyjae Spears, and DEF Browns
Team 3
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Austin Ekeler & Alvin Kamara
WR: Amon-Ra St. Brown & Chris Olave
TE: Cole Kmet
Flex: Christian Kirk
DEF: Bills
K: Tyler Bass
Bench: Darren Waller, Rhamondre Stevenson, Terry McLaurin, Brian Robinson, and Jared Goff
Waivers: Picked up TE Cole Kmet and Dropped RB Zack Moss
-Picking up TE Cole Kmet was a good pick up because he is a good tight end, and RB Zack Moss is no longer the starting running back for the Colts since RB Jonathan Taylor returned. I picked up Kmet because TE Darren Waller might not start Sunday due to a Groin injury.
Players besides my three fantasy football teams to start:
QB: Josh Allen, Geno Smith, and Brock Purdy
RB: Christian McCaffrey, D’Andre Swift, and Jonathan Taylor
WR: Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Devonta Smith
TE: George Kittle, Jake Ferguson, and Gerald Everett
DEF: 49ers, Jaguars, and Jets
K: Jake Elliot, Cameron Dicker, and Nick Folk
Players besides my three fantasy football teams to bench:
QB: Matthew Stafford, Sam Howell, and Zach Wilson
3 / 3
RB: Rachaad White, Justice Hill, and Javonte Williams
WR: Michael Pittman Jr., DeAndre Hopkins, and Garrett Wilson
TE: Logan Thomas, Jonnu Smith, and Tyler Conklin
DEF: Falcons, Raiders, and Panthers
K: Younghoe Koo, Matt Gay, and Graham Gano
Here are players that may or may not start Sunday due to injuries:
QB: Daniel Jones (Neck) & Deshaun Watson (Right Shoulder)
RB: Khalil Herbert (Ankle), Jahmyr Gibbs (Hamstring), and Elijah Mitchell (Knee)
WR: Treylon Burks (Knee), JuJu Smith-Schuster (Concussion), and Tee Higgins (Ribs)
TE: Dalton Kincaid (Concussion), Sam LaPorta (Calf), and David Njoku (Face, Hand)
My advice helps you with your Week 6 Sunday PPR fantasy football league matchups. Good Luck!
