Fantasy football Week 12 advice recap: Who to start and sit
Jessica Wood Lightning round answers to some final questions before we wrap up this Q&A.
Q: Nico Collins or Kyren Williams in flex PPR spot? — Patrick K.
Williams.
Q: Jordan Addison or James Conner? — Alexander J G.
With no context, Addison for PPR upside play, Conner for a reasonable floor.
Q: Start James Cook or Alexander Mattison? Half-PPR. — Kevin C.
Mattison. Avoid that Eagles’ run defense.
Q: Chris Olave or Nico Collins? Half-PPR!! Thanks! — Ankur B.
Olave, with fingers crossed that he picks up where he left off before the bye.
Q: Russell Wilson versus Cleveland or Desmond Ridder versus New Orleans? — Joe G.
Tough call, but I’d stick with Wilson.
Q: Do I start Saquon Barkley or Jonathan Taylor? — Lloyd D.
I think Barkley edges Taylor out just by a hair, coming off his best game of the season and being the Giants’ best option in the running and receiving game.
Q: Half PPR. Start Cooper Kupp coming off his ankle injury or Joe Mixon playing without Joe Burrow? — Alex E.
Kupp, but how are you not in a position to start both of those guys?!?
Q: Need to start three (one WR, two flex) in a full PPR league: Puka Nacua, Christian Kirk, Jaylen Warren, Isiah Pacheco. Who sits? — Jordan B.
I’d sit Kirk.
Q: Need one in half-PPR: Josh Downs, Zay Flowers or James Cook? — Mark D.
Zay Flowers.
Q: David Njoku or Isaiah Likely in half PPR? — Joseph T.
Njoku by a wide margin.
Q: Pick three: Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua, Christian Kirk, D.J. Moore. PPR league. — Maxgooner P.
I’m sitting Kirk out of this bunch.
Q: Who is the best flex play? PPR. Keaton Mitchell, Rashee Rice, Quentin Johnston or Jalen Guyton? — Andre Y.
Rice.
