Yahoo Sports’ Fantasy Football Live team is eagerly awaiting the Rams receiver’s return and wondering if he can be trusted in fantasy lineups Thursday night.
Video transcription
Puka Nua, active Cooper Cup, active, activated from injury reserve today after week-long knee injury, TJ Hawkinson knocks out Andy Nua.
The expectations are, yeah, look, we can’t play Scared Fitz and I don’t think I would here with Puka Nua.
Um, if I had waited six weeks for him, he would probably start for me.
NOW.
A guy contacted me on social media after I said nice things about Nua and he was like, well, hey, I’m casting T Higgins and Jaden Reid in his place.
Well, ok, I understand that those aren’t the options most of us have, right?
I certainly don’t have a hard time imagining the scenario where a fantasy manager has a better option than the guy you drafted in the second round.
Um, he caught 105 balls for almost 1,500 yards last year and if the Rams play him, I play him, I’m willing to accept the possibility of a limited role because I also know the high end, the range of results. it seems.
And that saves me the week.
Um, so some of you may have to wrestle with a floor versus ceiling debate.
Maybe you think you are the underdog and you have to do this, you have to aim for the ceiling in this case it has to be nua.
Um, I also have to say this, this game looks like an all-hands-on-deck situation for the Rams, right?
Like if we get to two and five, we sell and if we get to three and four, hey, we’re, now we’re tied with the Niners.
Anything can happen.
Um, the main thing here for me.
I think we’ll have everything Fuca has tonight and that’s enough for me.
I, I think the timing is also quick, I’m going to point things out on this because remember after this game the Rams get the mini pie.
If they are reluctant to play an injured player, you won’t play them on Thursday because you have a full week and a half to get them back in order.
They wouldn’t play these guys if they weren’t ready to play.
So I’m with you.
I think it’s an intelligent analysis.
