    So you're saying pick up Hopkins, or at least try depending on the waiver claims?

    I think you're right about Spiller. No need to pull the trigger yet. I missed out on Knile Davis, but picked up Donald Brown last week, which might turn out to be a good addition.

    Hopkins shouldn't be on waivers. Find a way to pick him up.

    I would definitely pick up Hopkins. Donald Brown should see a lot of action with Mathews and Woodhead out.

    For those of you wanting updates on the team my buddy has (picked his entire team after everybody else drafted)

    He is 2-1 largely due to Kirk Cousins and Knile Davis.

    I think it would be fun here at the end of the year to post our week 1 lineups and our final lineups. I bet they will be vastly different.

    I was offered Bradshaw for Vereen last week. I'm second-guessing my decision to reject it, although I'm second-guessing a lot of my moves after starting 1-2.

    Got Hopkins for Hurns this morning. So now my receivers are:

    Calvin Johnson
    Antonio Brown
    Julian Edelman
    Sammy Watkins
    DeAndre Hopkins
    Josh Gordon

    Gonna leave a lot of points on the bench each week.

    You have the No. 2, No. 4, No. 7 and the No. 15 top receiving scorers this season.

    You certainly didn't need Hopkins, and it's hard to imagine him cracking your starting lineup with the exception of bye weeks, but it's still smart to pick him up just to prevent someone else from getting him.

    Hopkins being available seems unimaginable, but smart move picking him up.

    I like to harvest as many potentially breakout players as I can, then see how the season plays out. There just aren't running backs out there right now with Hopkins's potential, I don't think. It also will help with the bye weeks to have a stockpile of WRs, as well as a chance to react to matchups at the flex position.
