Trust or Fade: Thursday Injury Expectations

Time is limited this week but I wanted to get some recommendations up in advance of the Thursday night game. I'll work to get some context onto my Twitter feed by tomorrow evening, but here's how I'd approach the Thursday slate.

Marshawn Lynch
TRUST: Cash and GPP

Odell Beckham
TRUST: Cash and GPP
**Beckham isn't out of the woods yet with regard to potential aggravations, but he moved well on Monday night and avoided an aggravation.

Justin Forsett
TRUST: Cash and GPP
**Though I still have some concern here, I'm not going to be stubborn on Forsett. He looked healthy enough last week to trust in the early slate.

Dion Lewis
LEAN FADE: Cash and GPP
**The only thing you can trust here is that you won't get the full story until after it's over. Lewis may continue to be limited or he may be back to his previous 15-20 touch volume. I'd wait until Sunday to make a call here.

Keenan Allen
LEAN FADE: Cash and GPP

Ben Roethlisberger
FADE: Cash and GPP

Allen Robinson
LEAN TRUST: Cash and GPP

Jeremy Maclin
FADE: Cash and GPP

Tyrod Taylor
FADE: Cash
LEAN TRUST: GPP
**Too much of Taylor's DFS upside depends on mobility and rushing volume. That hurts his floor for cash games. He's a consideration as a contrarian cash play in the hopes his lower than usual volume pays off, but it's risky without more practice participation to go on.

T.J. Yeldon
FADE: Cash and GPP

Jordan Reed
FADE: Cash and GPP
**I fully expect to change this recommendation on Sunday morning, but don't get burned on Reed here. Wait until you see a full practice before rostering him.

Marcus Mariota
FADE: Cash
LEAN FADE: GPP
