Welcome to the latest edition of AMA Recap! We'll be summarizing our bi-weekly Discord AMAs as we approach the 2025 NFL season. This week, Footballguys Analyst Mike Kashuba goes rapid fire on some of the hottest topics leading up to Week One!
Shallow Rosters
CaptainK: Hey Mike! In a shallow league with five bench spots, I'm being offered RJ Harvey and Nico Collins for Malik Nabers. My bench is pretty good. What should I do?
Mike Kashuba: I'd be fine cutting someone of the third-running back tier like a Kaleb Johnson, but I'm not sure how much of a tier upgrade you're getting there. I vote no!
Green Bay Backup
DannyFresh: With MarShawn Lloyd headed back to the injured reserve, do you like Chris Brooks and Emanuel Wilson as the backup in Green Bay?
Mike Kashuba: I prefer Emanuel Wilson if I have to choose one of them.
San Fran Showdown: Guerendo vs. Robinson
Tye: I drafted Christian McCaffrey with Isaac Guerendo as his backup. Now that Brian Robinson Jr is McCaffrey's backup, would you try to trade for Robinson? Possibly Cooper Kupp for Robinson?
Mike Kashuba: I'd just cut Guerendo and stash another bench upside guy. Maybe Kupp for Robinson, depending on how many wide receivers you need to start.
We Are Worthy
melodicmusing: Who would you prefer as your second wide receiver between Garrett Wilson and Xavier Worthy in full PPR and why?
Mike Kashuba: I prefer Xavier Worthy. With Rashee Rice possibly starting slow after missing six weeks of the season, Worthy has the conditional upside of an easier path to top-ten status. Justin Fields doesn't inspire confidence in Wilson having his most efficient season ever.
