Fantasy Football Think Tank

[nelsong6969]

Whats the rest of your team look like, might want to pull the trigger on it

Qb-brees, kolb, Collins (start two)
Wr-vincent Jackson, Devin Hester, aj green, Santana moss, plaxico burress, meachem (start 4)
Rb- ray rice, peyton hillis, Darren sproles, Tim hightower, Beanie Wells, CJ Spiller (start 2)
te- written (start 1)

Plus 2 flex that I used for rb's since I was stacked.

Already accepted but just wasn't sure if foster will be out for awhile or not, already got hurt by Manning. And amendola being out made me need another receiver.

[Nainoa]

I give- Kevin kolb, peyton hillis, Darren sproles

For- Ben roethlisberger, Arian Foster, Julio jones

Good or bad?

Yep... I would do that...

If Foster had tried to play in week 1 I would be saying "He's going to have that hammy linger" like Forte and Moreno... But it sounds like he's finally taking the right angle and letting it heal. And after Tate (And Ward) showed they can handle the load in his absence, Kubiak isn't going to rush Foster back.

End result... You get Foster healthy and ready to roll by mid season.

*I'd still handcuff tate to him if AT ALL possible.

[Fabs23]

I'm throwing around idea of picking up Hernandez (TE) for NE...I have Daniels for Hou at my TE right now. Any thoughts?

[peteypistol]

I'm throwing around idea of picking up Hernandez (TE) for NE...I have Daniels for Hou at my TE right now. Any thoughts?

been big on them so far this season... gronk startin 3 teams and hernandez on 2. i think tonights game speaks for its self

hernandez is used like a wideout and is a physical freak. gronk is in everyplay and a huge goaline threat

[griepes]

I'm throwing around idea of picking up Hernandez (TE) for NE...I have Daniels for Hou at my TE right now. Any thoughts?yeah go for it, especially if youre in ppr




I have Rodgers, Stafford and Fitz on my roster right now? Should I try and move one of them? or wait for a qb to be injured?

[xN1CKx]

Lol someone in my league dropped Marques Colston. I've never moved/clicked my mouse faster than I did when I added him

[biggquis]

I'm liking what I see out of Reggie Bush. Obviously, touchdowns won't come every week, but I'm impressed with his running between the tackles, and of course he's great in the passing game. In a game where Miami isn't so overmatched upfront, Bush can come up huge.

[biggquis]

LMAO... Brady is the man

[peteypistol]

LMAO... Brady is the man

mind=blown that brady has never thrown for over 400 yards before tonight

[PotKettleBlack]

So assuming Gostkowski doesn't contribute anything further tonight, I have a straight shootout between my DMC and his Brandon Lloyd for the unlikely victory.

[thefullmonte]

any updates on Hakeem Nicks' knee?

[peteypistol]

any updates on Hakeem Nicks' knee?



A Giants source has told the Newark Star-Ledger's Mike Garafolo that Hakeem Nicks (knee) is dealing with a "bone bruise at worst."
Some alarm bells went off Monday afternoon when the Giants announced their star wideout would undergo further evaluation on his knee after Sunday evening X-rays came back negative, but Nicks showed up at the team facility shortly thereafter and declared himself fine. Great news, though he shouldn't be considered a slam dunk to be active for Week 2 until you see him on the practice field.


Mike Garafolo just tweeted...

MikeGarafolo Mike Garafolo I'm canceling a Giants pity party for the 2nd time in 4 days: WR Hakeem Nicks back at the facility. Gave thumbs up + says he's fine. #nyg

im high on hightower really low on willams

[cbad7676]

went 1-4 today. lost 2 games by less than 2 points.

[Jayarbie]

Drop Shonn Greene and put in a waiver for James Starks?


edit: nevermind... Starks isn't available

LOL, I was wondering about that. Greene and Starks are both guys who should no way in hell be on waivers or FAs.

[T2TL]

I have Greene, am a Jets fan, and am sending trades to everyone. This game will be the case all season, I just needed one game to see what happens and I got it. Trade him while you still can

[cudder]

why would you trade him when his stock is low. wait til he blows up a bit and then trade. i wouldnt accept anything for greene now unless i was gettin an unbelievable deal.

[T2TL]

His stock isn't going to blow up at any point before trade deadline. I live in NY where there are Jets fans so I'm hoping to trade him to a believer. I guess people can keep him but I'd take Hightower and the knock at WR any day right now

[Jayarbie]

It's going to be an interesting waiver wire week with 4 QBs over 300 yards, including 2 over 400, and another with 4 TDs likely on waivers in a lot of leagues. Who are the real deal and who are just flashes?

[Vigilante_Inc]

LOL at my week one Score

A. Rodgers 35.9
McFadden (8 currently but he's got a whole other half left)
Hightower 16.9
Welker 31.2
Megatron 23.2
Robert Meachamp
J. Witten 13.4
49ers Defense 27.5
TOTAL SO FAR = 171.5 and still going cause McFadden is still playing

p.s. next highest score is 122 points

[dasfeuer]

For next week should I pick up Fitzpatrick vs Oakland to start over Ryan vs Philly?

Strong Philly secondary and weak LBs, feel like it will be a big day for Turner and a so so game for Ryan

his stocks not gonna blow up? hes a starting RB on a good football team... they were down the entire game and passing the whole time ( LT instead of Greene ) no wonder he had bad stats. Its week 1, no need to overreact

[Max~Power]

Benched Steve Smith of J. Ford Sunday freaking morning...

I have been so pissed, but I pulled out the win, so meh

I'd go Fitz at this point. I don't think he plays as well as he did this week, but I still think he should be very solid.

Don't let your bias get in the way of fantasy football (assuming you're a Jets fan from living in NJ.) That o-line isn't great and it seems shottys game plan will be to pass more often. It makes sense to have LT on passing downs and he's the more effective back. They started their drive with three straight passes. Even if they go to the ground game there's still LT, McKnight, and Powell who are rumored to be in the mix. Figure Greene's good game at 11 fantasy points, if he ever has one. They didn't use him at the goal line and he showed he wasn't the greatest pass blocker. He's done, sorry.

[Zabooni]

Who to drop between Percy Harvin, Meachem, and Ben Tate? I'm leaning towards Meachem, as he's the least talented of the group in my opinion. However he still should put up good numbers in NO with Brees throwing to him, so I'm not sure. Dropping one of these guys to pick up Dickson as a backup for Dallas Clark.

im not a jets fan, at all actually. I didnt say the line was great, but its definitely not bad. Where did u find that they are becoming a passing team? The games I watched in preseason they were balanaced, if not leaning towards the run. You cant judge off this game since they were behind the whole time. Not arguing, just giving my opinion. Jets are playing jacksonville this week, if he sux... ill eat my words

im not saying hes a stud, and if u drafted him as a RB1 than urineidiot. but he will be a good flex play...and good value at his ADP

[DUCKBrah]

Which NE TE would you rather have, Gronk or Hernandez?

I understand. I drafted him because he's in a scenario where he should be getting the ball 250+ times and a few goal line carries. There just seemed to be a lot of downs where they would normally run it and Sanchez was airing it out. He seems very confident in his receivers, it's almost like they'll have to force the ball to Greene if he's going to be worth anything but then again that would be at the expense of the team. I'm trying to package him to get Mendenhall so it isn't a fire sale for me but I'd trade him for any rb2 or decent flex

[Idontlikeit]

Gronk in a heartbeat/

With Colston out I think it benefits Henderson and Meachamps stock way up so I wouldnt get rid of Meachamp just yet. Ben tate is probably the most dispenible there because its sounding like foster is coming back next week.

Why do you have to get rid of 1

dirty sanchez threw the ball 44 times in the game. and the announcers were talking about the jets new look passing offense

Well **** me, no NE TE's left.

Fitz + Jordy for Mannigham and NYG D? (This is the trade i will propose to the Peyton owner)

Won despite my opponent having the Ravens D and Brady.

Thank you Brees, Rice, and the Bears D.

No need for a backup te. Well depending on how many are allowed on the bench. I would not drop meachem right now, he would actually be worth a start next week with colston out. His value is high right now, especially if moore is still out meachem will be to go to guy along with graham.

[biggquis]

Well **** me, no NE TE's left.

Dickson easily. I've had Keller on my teams the last 2 years. He'll have a game like this week once or twice on the year, and then do nothing the rest of the games. Sanchez will throw to Holmes first, then Plax, then LT, then Keller. Don't drink the kool aid. Plus, the Jets were behind the whole game. Sanchez won't throw this much the rest of the year.

[kronzino]

Does anyone think Cutler will be a viable QB1 this season?

I have Rivers and Cutler at QB, I could trade Rivers for some upgrades at WR and RB, and pick up Newton or Fitzpatrick. Not too sure about Cutler tho.

[biggquis]

colston is out for the next 4 weeks, so definatley do it lol

Austin, Britt, Meachum is the order i'd rank them

[Yank11]

I have Freeman and Bradford as my QBs and Fitzpatrick, Newton and Sanchez are all FA's, stick with who I have or add someone?

no waivers in my league, first come first serve so i can add anyone I want right now so any quick help will be appreciated

Kevin Kolb is available too

[UniversityMisc]

Not sure whether to start Freeman or Newton as my QB2 next week.

[blackberries]

Need some serious work this week, lost terribly last week as you can guess with this lineup (13 team money league):

QB: Matt Ryan
RB: Arian Foster
RB: Shonn Green
WR: Vincent Jackson
WR: Miles Austin
WR: Mario Manningham
K: Josh Brown
D: Ravens

B: Brandon Jacobs
B: Jacoby Ford
B: Ben Tate
B: Davone Bess
B: Dexter McCluster
B: Tim Tebow

I have the 9th waiver right now and I have a feeling I'll get raped again this week if I don't make some changes. I'm not sure how I feel about Ryan vs. Philly secondary this week. Chad Henne is on wavers, should I pick him up?

Ryan, there were some fluke plays going on and Ryan always has a crap first game.

Benched Steve Smith of J. Ford Sunday freaking morning...

I have been so pissed, but I pulled out the win, so meh Steve Smith, but how are those two your best options? Are Meachem, Henderson, Gaffney or Armstrong on ww? If so they are better options.

Not worth dropping either of them for a backup TE.


Which NE TE would you rather have, Gronk or Hernandez?


Well **** me, no NE TE's left.
Dickson Watson or Evan Moore. Gresham got a ton of targets too, lots of TEs out there.
Who would you rather pick up, Ed Dickson or Dustin Keller? Long term (for the season)
Dickson, like the other guy said Keller has one or two big games a year. Never gets any looks unless in a shootout.

Not sure whether to start Freeman or Newton as my QB2 next week. Freeman if he is healthy. Newton wont repeat.

[Jayarbie]

Freeman if he is healthy. Newton wont repeat.

Newton's obviously not going to go for 400 every week (or possibly ever again in the NFL), but with his strong arm and scrambling ability, he will have some more big games. I wouldn't start him quite yet, but I'm putting in a waiver claim for him as a potential breakout backup with a VERY high ceiling.

[ccounts54]

Hightower vs ARI or Blount @ MIN? Also, Vernon Davis vs DAL or Witten @ SF? Or both (would mean me benching Britt, not feeling that). .5 ppr.

Feeling Hightower Witten, but I really like Blount and I feel like that first game shoudl be an anomaly for him. I'm playing a weak team this week though, so it can be more of a week to tinker with the lineup.

[Prozium913]

I picked up Arian Foster with my #1 pick. When will he be back? Is he worth keeping or should I try to get somebody decent for him while I can?

[Onita]

I wouldn't start him quite yet, but I'm putting in a waiver claim for him as a potential breakout backup with a VERY high ceiling. I picked him up too in case he does have anything else this season, would rather have that on my bench than getting other people points. He was a lot more accurate then I thought he would be, but I saw ARI had a bunch of rookies in teh secondary. He will hit some passes, but ultimately not be accurate enough throughout the year. Reminds me of watching Pryor in college. Possible trade bait down the road. Who knows.

[JakeDub]

Please help me pick 1 starter off my dream team bench for week 2.

Ahmad Bradshaw @STL
Brandon Lloyd @Cincy
Steve Johnson @Oak
Shonn Greene @Jac

I also have Ben Tate and Mike Thomas but I think I've narrowed it down to the four above. Who should I put in at flex?

[cudder]

Some ideas I'm working with.
1. What do I do with amendola? Supposedly out til at least week 7, is he worth a bench spot?
2. Goin to try to make trades to get blount, greene, n roesthesberger. I feel that owners will look at the first game stats n be disapoint. time to take adavntage n get great value trades

[ThaWorldIsYours]

Well I crushed my opponent this week with 177 points, I'm still a little worried that I'm going to come crashing down to earth though. I had Welker & Britt both get insane totals for me this week that I doubt they will be repeating. (Also had Steve Smith on my bench, would have hit 200 if he started).


I'm wondering what to do with #3 receiver spot next week. Steve Smith's game was very encouraging, but the Panthers play the Packers this week so I don't know if I should risk starting him over Harvin, even though Minnesota's offense looked HORRIBLE against san diego. What do you guys think?

[Clide Whit]

With SJax out for a week in my PPR league who should I grab off waivers to replace him (dropping Daniel Thomas)?

Earnest Graham, Cadillac Williams, or Pierre Thomas?

[number26]

With SJax out for a week in my PPR league who should I grab off waivers to replace him (dropping Daniel Thomas)?

Earnest Graham, Cadillac Williams, or Pierre Thomas?

What WRs are available? Do you not have a 3rd running back that you could plug in and then put a WR in as a flex?

[Jayarbie]

With SJax out for a week in my PPR league who should I grab off waivers to replace him (dropping Daniel Thomas)?

Earnest Graham, Cadillac Williams, or Pierre Thomas?

Cadillac is the best option of those three, but it's a danger to drop Thomas now because he has long term value for the second half of the season as he learns the playbook and Bush's brittle body gives out. He may be useless for the immediate future, but if I saw Thomas on the waiver wire in my league, I'd grab him a stash him for sure.

Problem in my league is that we are only allowed 5 bench spots, so the idea of stashing someone is hard to do, my other bench guys are Ben Tate, Brandon Jacobs, Emmanuel Sanders, and Johnny Knox.

[beepbeep]

With SJax out for a week in my PPR league who should I grab off waivers to replace him (dropping Daniel Thomas)?

Earnest Graham, Cadillac Williams, or Pierre Thomas?
I'd go with Cadillac.

Graham only posted solid numbers because the Bucs were in catch-up mode and Blount can't play in passing situations. 56 of Graham's 71 total yards came in the second half. Minnesota isn't going to be jumping out to a big lead against the Bucs, limiting Graham's stats.

Thomas is better real life player than a fantasy one at this point. He just doesn't have a role. Ingram is the main between the tackles guy and Sproles handles almost all the 3rd down duties. Thomas' upside if probably only about 12 touches a game with few chances for a TD.

Which leaves Cadillac. He looked solid as both a runner and receiver against the Eagles and has nobody stealing carries, plus the Giants D is banged up all to hell. He seems like a good bet for 65 yards rushing and another 25 or so on a handful of catches, plus a decent shot at a TD run, which is nothing to sneeze at.

I don't think Daniel Thomas has any fantasy impact this year. By all accounts, he's just looked bad in preseason and training camp and the Dolphins don't seem to have any faith in him.

[Clide Whit]

Should I look into grabbing Brandon Gibson as well in my PPR league with Amendola out? If I do I'd have to let go of either Emmanuel Sanders or Johnny Knox, or should I hold on to those two? My 3 starters are Reggie Wayne, Andre Johnson, and Steve Johnson.

[Jayarbie]

Problem in my league is that we are only allowed 5 bench spots, so the idea of stashing someone is hard to do, my other bench guys are Ben Tate, Brandon Jacobs, Emmanuel Sanders, and Johnny Knox.

I would put Tate in this week and monitor the situation. Foster is giong to be limited or out again, so Tate should have a big role until Jackson gets back.

I'm not real high on Gibson, but it depends on your opinion of the long term value of Gibson vs Sanders or Knox. You have three solid starters, so you should be looking primarily at ceiling for your backups.

[biggquis]

Shonn Greene this week vs. the Jags or Reggie Bush vs. Texans?

I can make a case for both guys honestly. Jets won't be behind, so they'll pound the ball this week. Also, Miami-Houston will be a shootout, and Bush will run wild IMO. If you noticed, NE played with a spy on Bush the whole game lol.

[neelb_24]

Should I drop Kerry Collins for Rex Grossman?

Other noteable FA's I'm targetting: Cadillac Williams, Ben Tate, Jordy Nelson, Robert Meachem, Willis McGahee, Grossman, Devery Henderson

I'm 8th in waiver wire order and I'm going to be targetting all of the above, in the order I posted them. Players I'll be dropping are Ronnie Brown (he's a handcuff to McCoy but I'm not sure he's worth keeping), Amendola (probably out for year), Austin Collie, and Kerry Collins. Also considering dropping Daniel Thomas since Reggie Bush is getting tons of touches and the rookie is injured but I might hang onto him for a few more weeks to see if he gets any PT and also planning of Bush's eventual crash and burn.

S. Janikowski is also available so I'll be dropping my kicker, Mason Crosby, for him. If he's gone I'll probably target Akers.

Out of FA's I listed, which ones should I be targetting the most? I know I have a slim chance of getting the top ones since I'm 8th pick on waivers though.

other random scrubs that are available: early doucet, earnest graham, randall cobb, deion branch, scott chandler (bills TE), fred davis (foreskins TE), LT (not sure his carries will stay high all year with jets), mike sims walker, nate burleson, dexter mccluster, roy williams, michael bush

(8 team league, ppr. 2qb, 2rb, 1 rb/wr, 2 wr, te, d/st, k, LB, DL, DB, DP,)

Also going to be targetting Ed Reed and Mario Williams but they may be gone.

My roster:

QB: Brady, Bradford, Collins, Peyton Manning
RB: McCoy, Mendenhall, Tolbert, Ryan Grant, Daniel Thomas, Ronnie Brown
WR: Nicks, Wayne, Manningham, Mike Thomas (Jax #1 target), Amendola, Collie
TE: Witten, Ben Watson (CLE)
D/ST: Eagles
K: Crosby
LB: James Harrison
DL: Robert Mathis (will try to add Mario Williams over him)
DB: Tyvon Branch (Raiders S, will try to upgrade to Ed Reed)
DP: Demarcus Ware


As I stated a few pages back I kinda screwed up my team by trading Eli and Benson for Peyton (this was when there were rumors that he might be back for week 1).

But yea, I'd like some feedback on what waiver wire moves I should make this week. Other comments/opinions also welcome.

[joebus36]

I'm trying to pick up some runningback depth. Would you guys pick up Willis McGahee or Cadillac Williams?

[dirtdickens]

You guys really need to start posting if you play ppr or not. For all we know you play in sone jacked up 2QB league that only counts TDs and KR yards.

and if your talkin trade at least post the other guys you have at those positions.

[dirtdickens]

im hearing mixed reports right now but the prevailing talk is its mainly precautionary MRI's..give it a couple days to let the dust settle. I'm in LA and they sometimes think SD is their hometeam so there is a good amt of talk about it

Should I start Dallas Clark or Jimmy Graham?

[Fabs23]

Should I start Dallas Clark or Jimmy Graham?


depends, if you get points for receptions or not....... if no recepts Id start clark based on his matchup with the brownies. Graham has to deal with Chicago.

[BrawnySwoleman]

So which D should I go with this week? I have the Bears D but against the Packers I might be risking negative points.

Saints @ Bears
Bills @ Raiders
Giants @ Rams

[j4ck3d_N_Y]

Julio Jones, Plax, or Percy Harvin..started Julio this week and he got me 7 points, Plax had 13, and Percy had 2...obvious chance in Plax? Mike Wallace is my other starting WR

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. Who here has Hakeem Nicks? What do you guys know about Hixon..worth me scooping up as a free agent? (i doubt anyone will get him on waivers) If St. Louis is missing BOTH of their corners, Hixon has to do decent. But lets HOPE Nicks stays healthy!

3700 reps for INPUT!

"ESPN's John Clayton confirms that Hakeem Nicks' status is "in doubt" for Week 2. Clayton is confirming a New York Daily News report that Nicks is "at best, uncertain" for Monday night's game against the Rams. "The knee is day to day but there is definite concern about this week," says Clayton. We're guessing that Domenik Hixon would start opposite Mario Manningham if Nicks can't go. Hixon could shape up as a nice "handcuff" waiver addition with St. Louis possibly missing both starting corners."



Guess the knee injury is worse than we thought... I have Ochocinco and Mike Sims Walker on my bench. Would you guys start Hixon over MSW?

knee jerk reaction is to say no run with Hixon. But seeing how poorly Eli delivered the ball last weekend I'm off the Eli train completely. He looked simply awful...id rather have Kerry Collins behind center. Go with Sims Walker. I think I'd even take Ocho over Hixon...he didnt get many looks last night...so in true patriots fashion he's goiing to have a 7+ recep game once the focus is off him and on welker and the twin TE's.

Trying to decide on my d/st for this week, I have the bears right now, but against the saints im not too optimistic. I have #1 spot on waivers so have a wide choice of teams from texans, 9ers, redskins, raiders, bills etc. Leaning towards Texans, what you guys think?

In this order SF/NO (close on those two you're call go with your gut) Houston 3rd. I wouldn't touch Buffalo or Washington even with them playing at their place.

If Denver is available they should be pretty solid in week 2 playing at mile high against Cinci. I like em better than anyone else you listed.

[Future24]

Okay guys. I need help. I'm #2 on the waiver wire. The best available right now are QBs pretty much with some decent tight ends. Right now my tight ends are Jared Cook and Lance Kendricks. Who do I pick up?

http://i56.tinypic.com/11ueu4h.jpg

Cam and Henne are the #1 and #2 on there. My QB is Schaub, no back up.

RBs - JCharles, Bradshaw, Jacobs, McGahee, Addai
WR - Mike Williams(TB), Vjax, Harvin, Emmanuel Sanders, Lance Moore, Malcom Floyd
TE - Cook, Kendricks
Def - Ravens (win)

I like Randall Cobb WR GB, Caddy RB Stl and Henne if you decided to pick up a QB. Baltimore has favorable matchups almost every week so a second defense is not needed. If it were me I'd grab Henne or Caddy depending on how your bye weeks fall

QUICK HELP

10 team league scoring: 1 PPR 6 for a TD


I have Greg Jennings and Marques colston as my 1-2 WRs....Colston is out 4 weeks

Do I pick up Doucett, Devery Henderson or Jordy Nelson????

I already have Finley and Jennings on my team as starters do I load up and take a chance of getting 85% of Rodgers passing yds and TDs but, Also shoot myself in the foot if the Pack is off once over the next 4 weeks?????

I have Plax, Branch, Sydney Rice and Garcon as my other WRs for a total of 6 also have to start 3 WRs

So, who do I drop at WR and who do I pick up?????????

I'm sure I know the answer to this, but which side would you take:

Tolbert and Devery Henderson. Its not even close in my opinion

this.

the Pats D will give up yardage, Tolbert will have a good game.
Henderson because the Bears do give up big plays, and this is coming from a Bears fan. Plus NO is at home.

I think both of those games this week are going to be great games.

Drop Shonn Greene for Mark Ingram, Knowshown Moreno, or Michael Bush? I have no need to start this player right now. It would be a stash for later I guess

[DoiEvenLift]

Drop Shonn Greene for Mark Ingram, Knowshown Moreno, or Michael Bush? I have no need to start this player right now. It would be a stash for later I guess

Out of those guys I like Ingram

I am a shonn greene owner as well, trying to decide if I should be concerned yet. He just looked like a completely untalented running back on sunday night. Considering trying to shop him around for a Wells, Ingram, or possibly Reggie Bush, but also don't want to jump the gun. He's my RB 4/5 behind Foster, McFadden, Best, and possibly Hightower, so I don't need to start him but I am concerned his value may completely tank if he keeps running like he did. I think getting Wells would be the best but I don't know if I can pull that off. Ingram might have exponentially more value than he does now at the end of the season. Reggie is showing some flashes of upside.

Also may propose a deal to get a Michael Bush handcuff for my DMC. I give Manningham and Greene for Dez Bryant and Michael Bush, do you guys like this trade more? My RBs listed above, my WRs: Wallace, Manningham, Julio Jones, Lance Moore.

May also just wait and see how week 2 pans out. Any opinions?

You can't just give up on one of your top picks after one game, come on man

Hold on to green but out of those three I like Ingram best if you can drop someone else

[dirtdickens]

Gibson-had a couple of drops but was targeted a lot. With Amendola out he will get even more. Sproles is in the perfect situation this week with the top 2 WRs possibly out his role as a pass catcher will increase. I dont expect this type of game out of him all the time, but the circumstances make him a play.

Brah, you gotta start posting your scoring. This trade is a perfect example of why its needed or you will get a sht answer. If its non ppr you are gonna want Wallace and Hightower as they are more yardage based/TD guys and not really PPR style studs. However, you are going to want Manningham/Foster is it is a PPR league because they are sure fire 4-5rec a game guys.

Should I trade Stafford?

12 team .5 ppr league

starters:

QB - T Brady
RB - M Forte
RB - J Best
WR - B Marshall
WR - N Burleson
FL - M Tolbert
TE - J Witten
DEF - Baltimore
K - Janikowski

bench:

QB - M Stafford, C Henne
RB - M Ingram, M Barber
WR - J Jones, D Amendola
TE - E Dickson

Although happy with my team's performance in week 1, I could really use an upgrade at WR. Obviously with Brady, most of the year Stafford will be sitting on my bench. If Brady goes down, he'll probably fit in nicely. So do I trade him, either now or after another week or two of putting up high numbers or do I keep him as insurance? I've had QBs get hurt before late in the year, and it sucks trying to replace their numbers using the waiver wire. To further complicate things, this is a keeper league. During the offseason, I have to release Brady. However, Stafford could be kept, for great value mind you, in the 11th round. Someone in my league currently has Grossman and McNabb as his QBs, so I'm pretty sure he would be open to trading for Stafford. I was thinking Stafford for Miles Austin?

I'd want one less QB and one more RB or WR. I'd send Stafford for Austin in a second considering your situation, but I doubt the other person would bite on that.

MJD plays the Jets, CJ faces the Ravens. I can see starting Marshall over VJax, although VJax faces the Patriots in what should be a shootout, and Henne hung 400+ yards on them.... Rivers is a little better than Henne (Just Saying) That VJax v Marshall is a tough one, a selection you should make on your own, as their damn near equal, so it's more of a gut call.

I would not start Tate over MJD or CJ. Foster worked out on Monday and yesterday, and might be practicing today. It's a murky situation, especially if they ease him back in this week, as it will take 5-+ carries away from Tate. Keep an eye on that situation. Both MJD and CJ face tough Defenses, but I would feel safer with MJD since he produced last week, and even with the promise of CJ being more involved, I'd want to see it first.

[drangel254]

Yeah I'm debating on this one, my opponent is probably the top dawg. I know I'm gonna need a hit from all guys. Would you think Marshall would outperform djax or Jennings? Jennings against Carolina looks good djax on Atlanta not as good.

You shouldn't be able to get Austin for Stafford, but if you can, by all means, go for it. Stafford is a fantasy backup taken around 80-100 in most drafts. Austin is a #1 or #2 starter taken more like 30-40. No owner in their right mind would go for that.

[dirtdickens]

SEA looks bad. Even with only 4/TD Ben will bounce back this week.

Rapisburger vs SEA
4pt/TD, 25yds/1pt

Best vs KC

Dont move him yet unless someone really needs a QB, you arent going to get any real value out of Stafford right now. Probably better hawking the FA pool.

DeAngelo Williams @ GB or Fred Jackson @ Buf... GB doesn't have the greatest run D but with Stewart stealing carries not sure who to play, Buffalo is obviously susceptible to the run.. considering moving Jackson into the starting lineup.

I have Percy Harvin (@TB) starting but have Plaxico (@ JAC) on the bench and am looking to add Early Doucet (@ WASH) through waivers, McNabb played terrible in W1 and I just don't see Harvin putting up a ton of points unless McNabb regains some of his previous form...

Anyway I have teh Bolts up against the Pats. I am looking at the wire and here are some teams that stick out:

Texans
Falcons
Raiders
Vikes
Cowboys
Rams


On the bench I have:

Julio
Cutler
Zach Miller
Ocho Cinco
Plax
Ben Tate


I COULD drop anyone of those guys and add another D just to keep the Bolts around, or drop the Bolts for one of the wire guys.. Whatcha guys think?

That's seems a bit risky (dropping Ocho).. I have a feeling him and Brady get it together and he does alright, I was leaning towards dropping Zach Miller bc TJ is dirt. I have Witten as my main, so feel plenty safe there.


Why the Broncos? - They are available, but I think the interior of their D is gonna suck

or Miller, whichever you are comfortable with. I just dont see Ocho having many quality games or looks. He will have a few big ones to keep him pacified but he's going to be hit or miss. Denver has a good matchup at home this week vs Cinci. SD is a rough play this week as they will give up 28+ pts. I like the odds of Denver giving up less, not to mention NE doesnt turn the ball over...and Cinci well they're Cinci.

Needing some opinions at my Flex spot.. Standard Scoring, non-ppr

at flex, which to start out of:
Darren Sproles vs Chi
Ryan Matthews vs NE
Plax B. vs Jac
Devery Henderson vs Chi

Also at QB, I got Bradford or Fitzpatrick, My gut wants to start Sammy but after last week its hard to bench Fitz against Oak.

Ocho or Miller are both safe to drop. At this point, Ocho is the 6th target for Brady behind Welker, both TEs, Branch, and Woodhead. Barring injury, he's not moving up, either.

[Fabs23]

I dont really like it. probably looking at them giving up 24 pts or so. bottom 3rd of the defenses for week 2.

Agreed, Ocho will have a few good games sprinkled in just because at this point he's the forgotten receiver that has the dropsies. Who to drop comes down to bye weeks for me. Usually tight ends are like kickers where they are kind of unpredicatble outside of the top few.

However, you are going to want Manningham/Foster is it is a PPR league because they are sure fire 4-5rec a game guys.

Meh, I've posted it in every other post I've made and forgot one. Its a PPR league. I just have an issue with the #3 pick being traded for a 4th round pick, especially with Nicks possibly being out.

If the Lions are available grab them asap! KC offense that struggled, jacked up for home opener.... Thats a top 5 defense IMO this week

[Woogiefied]

Proposed a trade of my Tolbert and Harvin for his Wallace and either Meachem/Collie. What do you guys think? My league is .5 ppr standard scoring other wise. Roster would then look like this.

QB: Romo
RB: CJ2K
RB: Foster (Tate as backup)
WR: Marshall
WR: Wallace
Flex: Maclin
TE: Graham
K: Bryant
Def: Giants

[chargerfn909]

Dunno bout meachem OR collie..Actually I know bout Collie and no way would I want him..Wallace should be money, but I dunno if I like the trade off's to be honest..

Harvin is more appealing than Maclin, but I wouldn't consider giving up Wallace for that unless I was REALLY hurting at RB.

[Woogiefied]

I agree with you here, unless I can't find 2 RB's to start I'm not looking to move Wallace, guy is getting mad looks this year and put up a rather nice day even with BB ****tin the bed.

Anybody else besides me gonna roll the dice with Steve Smith this week?

Yeah yeah, the Packers D is a million times better than the Cardinals. I get it.

What I also get, is that the Packers are probably gonna be up by 21 by the end of the 1st quarter. So I wouldn't be surprised to see Cam hucking the football 50 times this week. I can envision a scenario where Smitty is on the receiving end of 5-7 of those balls, and hopefully gets deep and takes one in for a score ala Devery Henderson against GB last week.



All I know is he's GOTTA be a better option at WR3 than Percy Harvin until McNabb shows me he can throw for more than 39 yards.

[Jayarbie]

Montario Hardesty
Jared Cook

I don't think it matters much. Neither Cook nor Hardesty is someone I would be upset about dropping, but Karim isn't someone I'd rush to get, either. If you are a believer in handcuffs, then take him for Hardesty, I guess. Neither hardesty nor Karim have any value without an injury to their bell cow starters, and even if there is an injury, either of those guys in their respective dreadful offenses aren't going to produce like MJD or Hillis.

Harvin or Smith are both kind of boom or bust WR3 types. Newton isn't going to throw for 400 every week, but McNabb isn't going to throw for 40 every week, either. It's just a guess and hope you guess right.

Need to pickup a QB in case something goes wrong with Rivers which should be able to do since I can easily trade someone or just make a waiver wire pickup. I feel fine with the team as it stands, should do well.

Ryan Fitzpatrick, Kyle Orton, Chad Henne, Devery Henderson, Dustin Keller are all free agents at the moment.

[Classty]

Should I offer Brandon Marshall for Wes Welker?

The guy is a huge Dolphins fan and freaked out at me at the draft when I took Marshall, said he wanted him real bad. Is there a chance he will accept or will he just be insulted?

He benched Welker in week 1 btw lol

[Fabs23]

Nope not me, I don't have either of those QB's.

Well I goofed on a pick last week. Whoever it was sorry. No problem admitting when I'm wrong...it sux though :)

Give- AP and Garcon or sproles

Receive- Andre Johnson and Ahmad Bradshaw

I would do it with AP and Garcon. Garcon isnt going to see nearly as many catches, throws as last year, AP is going to be gettting a lot of LB/ gap attention if the air attack continues to struggle.

AJ is going to get a ton of looks (nevermind catches, yards, TD etc) He will generate more points then AP. I dont love Bradshaw, and would probably have him sitting, see if you can negotiate for a better back. Even if not at the end of the day I'd take the deal.

solid team everywhere except the NYG defense. Not that the defense is bad, but 3 and outs from their offense is going to keep the D on their heels and trying to catch their breath.

[Caps]

So Lance Kendricks and Mike Sims Walker are on the waiver wire, I'm thinking about picking them up and dropping Dustin Keller and Lance Moore off my bench respectively. Thoughts?

i have DMC as my 2nd back and tolbert/green-ellis/sproles for flex play. the im trying to trade with has **** for RB's Bradshaw as #1, green, hightower and stewart.

Deji Karim got 17 touches on Sunday, just sayin

And he got all of 60 yards out of it. MJD should see an increase in touches as his knee gets better, and Karim's production will not be good in that offense.

I like Hightower or Shonn Greene better than Bradshaw for starters. Greene has bust potential but thats a chance you can take with your RB depth. But you also got Ben Jarvus. Did this Dolphin Suck Balls guy put it on auto draft after his first two picks? his team is a mess.

[Fabs23]

cutler vs NO
henne vs houston

I like Cutler in this game...they need to keep pace with NO's and running isnt going to do it. If Cutler can execute some quality PA's he's going to have good numbers. Not to mention NO's D is suspect. If I had to pick a QB to go with for the entire year, id take Henne. For this game edge goes to Cutler.

[BeReal23]

Just made a thread on this but people seem to get more answers in here so....

http://i55.tinypic.com/235euc.jpg


Should I try to get a better WR? I don't see Tolbert having another game like last week but I think he'd be good bait for getting a top reciever. What do you guys think? Leave it alone or go after a reciever? If I had played Tolbert last week I would have beat the high score in my league by 20 but instead got 3rd. Won my matchup though so its all good. Any ideas to improve my team are welcome. Will rep good answers

Yeah your WR situation isnt the best considering who's pitching to Wayne right now. My fear would be having weeks where those 3 get less points than your QB. I'd try to wheel something. Manningham could be an option depending on the Hicks situation, but its too early too tell. Outside of Rice I'd put your RB's on the market and see what comes in. Tolbert and D'Angelo could be attractive pickups for someone.

I wouldnt bank on seeing him this year and even if he does he probably wont be putting up monster numbers.

I would Start Grahm over Clark and Manningham I would start over S.Holmes. I would shy away from starting any Indy WR/TE until they start syncing with their new QB as well.

[Onita]

I'm sure I know the answer to this, but which side would you take:

Foster + Manningham

for

Hightower + Mike Wallace

Bump. Its PPR. The two teams are relatives.

Without listing the whole teams, Mike Wallace was his #3 WR

Foster was obviously #1 RB, Manningham was their #2 WR.

Foster side. Its high risk though. you got Foster's health and Nick's health determining the value of this. Still I'd take Foster and Mario.

[cudder]

having a deep bench is awful for picking starters.
Pick 2: mendenhall, jonesdrew, wells, matthews, tolbert
Pick 2: megatron, wallace, marshall, s johnson, moss
Pick 1 for flex. Leaning towards 1st 3 rbs n then top 2 recievers

This is my first year playing fantasy football so like...is there an official way to put a player on the market or do I just post something on the league message board? Any specific receivers to go for?

I would Start Grahm over Clark and Manningham I would start over S.Holmes. I would shy away from starting any Indy WR/TE until they start syncing with their new QB as well.

I agree but the only reason I'm playing Clark is because he's at home playing Cleveland and Graham is playing Chicago. Plus I don't think the Colts will be near as bad as they were last week.

[YellowOnYellow]

Who to start in Week 2? Choose one from each.
Vick @ ATL
Stafford @ KC

and

Felix Jones @ SF
Addai @ CLE

I currently have Vick and Jones but seeing how Stafford is playing the Chiefs I'm second thinking myself. Jones vs SF with their run defense scares me too.

If you can monitor before gametime might want to switch Wells for Matthews if Tolbert sits out. But thats too much of a RBBC to mess with otherwise in your situation. Nice to have options isnt it?

Just start sending out some trade offers. If you get a decent offer use it as leverage with the next guy. Pick some players you want in return, figure out which team they're on, and then start making offers to that owner.

[waias15]

So I want to get Flacco and upgrade my TE. Since there is a team in my league with Flacco and 3 TEs (& no bench RBs) I was looking to make out a trade. Any ideas on what to offer him?
Our teams:

Me:
Eli, Peyton
Ray Rice, MJD, Shonn Greene, Beanie Wells, Tolbert
Santonio Holmes, Dez Bryant, Kenny Britt, Robert Meachem
Marcedes Lewis, Lance Kendricks

Him:
Rodgers, Flacco, Kolb
DeAngelo Williams, Ahmad Bradshaw
Miles Austin, Boldin, Amendola, Crabtree
Jermichael Finley, Jimmy Graham, Aaron Hernandez

Or do you think I could use my RB depth to acquire something better somewhere else? There are a few teams with no bench RBs at all. (Yes strong first year presence)

If you have a trading block section Id at least put up something that you want a QB before going to making offers. See what people will offer you. Not going to lie, your QB situation flat out stinks. So dont get set on getting Flacco...see what you can do to upgrade. Your alternative is to pray to god Eli had his worst game of the season in week 1.

If I'm stacked at a certain position I will post that I have that position available to trade on the message board. If I'm hurting at a position I will look for the team who is stacked at that position and try and find a weakness in their team that I can fill with one of my players than offer them a trade

here you go bruh


Arian Foster (hamstring) returned to Texans practice on Wednesday.
Coach Gary Kubiak described Foster's practice participation as a "normal Wednesday load for a starter." The indication there is that the Texans expect Foster to start against Miami. "Everything was positive," added Kubiak. "If he can play, you play. There won't be being careful with him." Foster will have to make it through the week setback-free, but early signs are very encouraging. The Texans were smart to avoid rushing Foster back for Week 1. Ben Tate and Derrick Ward will go back to the bench if Foster starts.

Although in your situation its pretty obvious. considering the hand you have...finishing in the top half of the league and making the playoffs would be a huge win.

A low WR2 or WR3 (a Harvin/Manningham/S. Moss type) plus Tolbert would not even get me close to considering trading Andre Johnson. It would take a legit but lesser #1 plus Tolbert (like Fitz or V-Jax) to get me to listen to it.

http://i55.tinypic.com/235euc.jpg

Should I throw in Holmes or Nelson?

On second thought... You shouldn't even do that trade you're pretty light on RB...

BUT if you're pissing your pants wanting to get Andre... I'd actually pitch him Reggie Wayne... Reggie is going to have a suffering statline this year...

[Nainoa]

A low WR2 or WR3 (a Harvin/Manningham/S. Moss type) plus Tolbert would not even get me close to considering trading Andre Johnson. It would take a legit but lesser #1 plus Tolbert (like Fitz or V-Jax) to get me to listen to it.

I always try to start low and negotiate high when I'm the seller... Get them talking so I can figure out their logic and feeling they have for their team etc...

[waias15]

what would usually be a fair trade wont be good enough for him. He will see your team is in trouble and you will have to give a lot to get what you need. more than you usually would. Other teams may start making weird offers that are lopsided knowing you need a QB. It can stink

Ah I see what youre saying. But like I said, most of the guys in the league arent thinking that much into it. He isnt seeing the upgrade to my team, he is only paying attention to his team. What do you think of the trade ideas I brought up?

I missed the post showing any trade ideas..looked back dont see it..just saw you and the other team's rosters. What are your thoughts? By the way I'm a MAhole transplant.

[Onita]

Hope your dad's alright.

More info;

Team 1:

RB:Benson, F. Jones, Tolbert, Wells, Hightower
WR/TE: C. Johnson, Fitz, Mike Wallace, Edwards, Amendola, Meachem, J. Graham

Team 2:

RB: Hillis, R. Bush, J. Stewart, Foster, Maurice Morris,
WR/TE: Wayne, Bess, Ward, Manningham, Clark, H. Miller

My biggest issue is its the #3 overall pick for a 4th round, and 3rd best WR on the team. Also had some shady dealings before with this team, and they are related.

On a second note, that will put 6 Steelers on Team 2. Guess who Team 2 plays during the Steelers bye week? lol

[DatAzz]

Aaron Hernandez or Vernon Davis this week? Non ppr
Hernandez is a stud and Brady is, well, Brady


You think I should offer Tolbert for Andre Johnson? He's weak at RB
Not even close, Tolbert is a RB3 potential RB2 after a few more solid games. Johnson is a stud WR1, you'd have to give up two players ranked at least a wr2 or rb2 or better for it to even be considered


I always try to start low and negotiate high when I'm the seller... Get them talking so I can figure out their logic and feeling they have for their team etc...

exactly start low and than let them counter and think they are getting a deal, when in reality its exactly what you wanted



Also got 2 spots left in my bb.com league drafting tonight 10pm eastern if any of you guys want in, pm me your email

[DoiEvenLift]

I am a shonn greene owner as well, trying to decide if I should be concerned yet. He just looked like a completely untalented running back on sunday night. Considering trying to shop him around for a Wells, Ingram, or possibly Reggie Bush, but also don't want to jump the gun. He's my RB 4/5 behind Foster, McFadden, Best, and possibly Hightower, so I don't need to start him but I am concerned his value may completely tank if he keeps running like he did. I think getting Wells would be the best but I don't know if I can pull that off. Ingram might have exponentially more value than he does now at the end of the season. Reggie is showing some flashes of upside.

Also may propose a deal to get a Michael Bush handcuff for my DMC. I give Manningham and Greene for Dez Bryant and Michael Bush, do you guys like this trade more? My RBs listed above, my WRs: Wallace, Manningham, Julio Jones, Lance Moore.

May also just wait and see how week 2 pans out. Any opinions?

Bump for opinions

[waias15]

I missed the post showing any trade ideas..looked back dont see it..just saw you and the other team's rosters. What are your thoughts? By the way I'm a MAhole transplant.

I was thinking some combo of greene/beanie/tolbert along with eli and meachem for flacco/graham. Think that's giving too much?

And always good to see guys from MA. Probably going to move away sometime as well. measly Mass reps

[Caps]

So Lance Kendricks and Mike Sims Walker are on the waiver wire, I'm thinking about picking them up and dropping Dustin Keller and Lance Moore off my bench respectively. Thoughts?

Bump

[Yeahbudday]

Will Santana Moss have a productive season?

[cudder]

Bump

maybe kendricks but definitely dont drop moore. hes quality and someones gonna snatch him up and youre gonna regret it later.

[bzman]

Will Santana Moss have a productive season?

Hes had 70+ receptions in his alst 3 seasons (2 of them over 1000 yards the other with 900) .....

Go look at his career stats, hes consistent every year. Redskins are a MUCH better team then everyone is giving credit for. They will finish 8-8 or better this year now that Shannan has had time to settle and get the people he wants. Expect a 1000 yard + season from him with 5 or 6 touchdowns at least

[Nainoa]

So what do you think I should do? Go for a better running back instead? Or should I just keep my team as is

Yeah if I were you I'd try to package something to upgrade from D-will as your #3... Depends on what other guys have for RB bench depth?

I'd start looking at someone who has an extra #2 on his bench instead of a #3.

[Lemonade727]

Another guy is wanting to trade me for DeSean Jackson, but I'm not sure what to try to get and what he would actually give up. Any suggestions? He won't get rid of Megatron at all. He was thinking of maybe D. Jackson and Gonzalez for Lloyd and Gronkowski. No PPR, and no return yardage but return TD's do count for the player as well as D/ST so Jackson could have some upside from that. I would end up with a solid TE which is my weakest area, but still feel kind of shafted in that trade.

My team:
QB - Rivers
WR - A. Johnson, D. Jackson
RB - CJ2K, Bradshaw
TE - Pettigrew
WR/RB/TE - Hightower
K - Rackers
D/ST - Jets
BN - Fitzpatrick, S. Jax, B. Marshall, Wells, Britt, T. Gonzalez, Vikings D



His team:
QB - Brady
WR - Megatron, B. Lloyd
RB - A.P., Forte
TE - Gronkowski
WR/RB/TE - Benson
K - Gould
D/ST - Packers D
BN - Bradford, R. Bush, Bowe, F. Jackson, Maclin, Julio Jones, 49ers D

[Nainoa]

Bump

I'd keep lance moore... When he comes back from that groin he'll have a lot of value with Colston out...

4 weeks for Colston's Broken shoulder is talking "Best Case Scenario" and even once he's back it's going to be a lot of rust and aligator arms early.

Otherwise, IF bradford is back... I'd get MSW.

[c0ncept-2]

Hi All,

In a standard scoring 10 man league with 1QB, 2WR, 2RB, 1TE, 1Flex, 1K, and 2DST. Just wondering how I should handle my bench because there seems to be clear separation in talent/depth

RBs:
LeSean McCoy, Felix Jones, Ladainian Tomlinson, DeAngelo Williams. Are either LT or DWill worth keeping around as flex RBs or should i look to get rid and replace them with higher quality backs?

WRs Brandon Marshall, Percy Harvin, Early Doucet, Braylon Edwards, Mike Sims-Walker. Just bid for Doucet and won off waivers, bid 10 points out of the original 200 we start with. Thinking I need to dump Sims-Walker but the rest are worthy and can stay

TEs Marcades Lewis and Jermaine Gresham. JG seems like the better keep but will hang onto both for now

QBs Brady and Manning. Picked up Manning in the last round. It was the day before they mentioned the surgery unfortunately. My thinking was he might be back on track midseason and be tradeworthy but not sure if I should just scrap him ASAP now

Any thoughts?

[Fabs23]

I was thinking some combo of greene/beanie/tolbert along with eli and meachem for flacco/graham. Think that's giving too much?

And always good to see guys from MA. Probably going to move away sometime as well. measly Mass reps

That would be great if you could give any of those two and get flacco and graham. I doubt he will accept it though. Try it but unlikely to be accepted. Fall back on just flacco for 1rb, see how that goes.

[TheStigIsBig]

The real problem I am having is which RB and WR's to start

I have Jordy Nelsen, Kenny Britt, and Mike Williams and I need to pick two.


For RB's I have Blount, Beanie, rashard mendenhall and fred jackson. Need to pick 3 RB's

Thoughts?

If its Mike Williams (TB) than sit Jordy, if its the (Sea) Williams sit him

I'd sit Jackson for RB

[DUCKBrah]

How do you guys feel about Blount? Right now my WR/RB situation looks like this:

WR:
Mike Williams (TB)
Steve Smith (CAR)
Percy Harvin
Devery Henderson
Lee Evans

RB:
CJ2K
LeGarrette Blount
Cedric Benson
James Starks

Should I trade Blount for an upgrade at WR and go with Benson and Starks as my #2 based on the matchup?

whats up Stig...long time no see.

For this weekend I'd run with Nelson and Britt
Beanie, Mendenhall and Jackson. Outside of sitting Mendenhall one can argue either way on all the others.

[waias15]

not sure if you saw meachem added in there as well. so i would most likely propose eli/greene/meachem for flacco/graham. i am thinking he will like getting 3 for 2, but i dont want that to be too much. thoughts?

then i would just have to pick up a WR4 off the wire like burleson, gibson, etc..

[TheStigIsBig]

If its Mike Williams (TB) than sit Jordy, if its the (Sea) Williams sit him

Yeah its Mike Williams TB.

You think Blount can produce?

Wuts goin on Fabs.

I am so fkin skeptical on Britt because of playing Baltimore, but I also have CJ2K.

Depends on all his depth...offer low then work your way up. (I did miss Meachem) I dont like the 2 for 3 trades if I'm on the high side of it. Someone that I'm getting is going to be sitting on the bench for most weeks most likely. BTW I'l NEVER play in a league with anyone in here since I'm giving away all my strategies.

[Ejjw18]

ok so here's my team in a 10 man league and I think it looks great and I absolutely dominated last week. My only concern is Grant at RB. Do you think I should keep him or drop him for someone else? here's my whole team, I just now dropped Mike Williams(SEA) for Deion Branch.

QB- Brady, Stafford
RB- MJD, Grant, Tolbert, Fred Jackson, Ingram
WR- Welker, Bowe, Wallace, Moore, Branch, and Ward
TE- Gronkowski
K- Rackers
DEF- Jets

If I drop Grant the top available RBs on the wire now since I was last on the waiver wire are...Hardesty, Ricky Williams, Sproles, Donald Brown, and Jacquizz Rodgers.

[Fabs23]

Yeah its Mike Williams TB.

You think Blount can produce?



Wuts goin on Fabs.

I'm skeptical on Blount, but also dont have enough knowledge of him and the Bucs hurryup playbook to really say much.
As far as Britt goes...YES they are playing Baltimore! Thats good!...so playing from behind.. Baltimore prevent defenses and Tennessee airing it out. Thats why I would start him. Probably will put up stronger numbers as the game goes on and Baltimore stretches their lead. I'm not saying relay on garbage time, but a softened defense. The only drawback is Tenn has the RB there who can break big plays as well. The good news is Baltimore is shaping up to have a top notch D..specifically against the RUN

[futbolista89]

What can I do with Blount and Ryan Grant? I want to trade one of them away. I started them both this past week and still managed to win, but I can't afford to keep them both around. Is Blount going to be getting more carries? He was not used much because the Bucs used a hurry up offense in week 1.

We shall see I will go over rosters again later in the week for my 13 fantasy leagues, yes 13 :( LOL

Hopefully no more injuries will happen this week in practice.

13 leagues? are you kidding me? go hit some golf balls or something!

[TheStigIsBig]

[Fabs23]

oh wait...you want to make money. If my guys come thru this week I get 20% of your winnings and 3 shots a side.

[Classty]

Should I offer Brandon Marshall for Wes Welker?

The guy is a huge Dolphins fan and freaked out at me at the draft when I took Marshall, said he wanted him real bad. Is there a chance he will accept or will he just be insulted?

He benched Welker in week 1 btw lol

bump

[TheStigIsBig]

oh wait...you want to make money. If my guys come thru this week I get 20% of your winnings and 3 shots a side.

lol'd at 3 shots a side.

Yeah I have a few grand up for grabs on fantasy. So decisions become very tough when you have 13 leagues haha

[Fabs23]

lol'd at 3 shots a side.

Yeah I have a few grand up for grabs on fantasy. So decisions become very tough when you have 13 leagues haha

that must drive you nuts...what is good for one team is bad for another. What was your combined record in week 1? 3 a side is steep...3 and 2.

[TheStigIsBig]

that must drive you nuts...what is good for one team is bad for another. What was your combined record in week 1? 3 a side is steep...3 and 2.

I was 6-7 in week 1. All thanks to Blount and Mendenhall that I have in almost every league. And also sitting Britt in almost all my leagues ahaha

[Fabs23]

I was 6-7 in week 1. All thanks to Blount and Mendenhall that I have in almost every league. And also sitting Britt in almost all my leagues ahaha

Cant do anything about Mendenhall...he was probably your first pick in most leagues..if he has two legs and they arent' broken you start him 101 out of 100 times. He should have a nice bounceback week this week. I just dont know about Blount though.

[.aeterna]

bump yea..if u can get wes welker, id go for it. theres no sign at this time that he wont have an amazing season

but im biased, as i drafted him, and im a longtime pats fan

[DatAzz]

I just dont know about Blount though.

"Week 1 made this point clear: Blount is not going to be a factor on passing downs, meaning his game is incomplete and he'll be at risk of invisibility when his team trails. Considering how mediocre the Bucs looked in Week 1, plus this being a road game, our hesitance to fully invest om him should be understandable."


Ouch... I liked Blount coming into the season but if TB is trailing he goes invisible, may have to sit him until they show me something good

[thefullmonte]

Earnest Graham gets all the passing down work and had 8 catches last week, Blount only had 5 total catches all of 2010

How's this trade, I think i pulled off a winner.

Giving
Matt ryan
Hakeem Nicks
Tim Hightower
For
Philip Rivers
Desean Jackson
Jahvid Best

Rest of team
AP, Gore, Mike Tolbert
Stevie Johnson, Anquan Boldin
Antonio Gates
Gostkowski
Green Bay

[biggquis]

Jimmy Graham or Gronkowski this week? Please don't give me that "oh you never know with NE blah blah". Grank is the No.1 TE on that team.

I like it. You upgrade your QB, RB is up in the air just still out at this point and both WR's are an injury risk but productive when healthy. Doesnt sound like Nicks is a go for week 2 right now. Im the opposite side as other poster...I think this is good trade.

[Fabs23]

Jimmy Graham or Gronkowski this week? Please don't give me that "oh you never know with NE blah blah". Grank is the No.1 TE on that team.

again I'm on the opposite side I like Gronk.

[Criisp]

I'm thinking of trading Rodgers and Greene for Fitz, J. Charles and Schaub. Should I?

[biggquis]

I'm thinking of trading Rodgers and Greene for Fitz, J. Charles and Schaub. Should I?

LMAO... what a blockbuster. Umm... hard to choose. Greene sucks, but Rodgers is the man. Charles is on a team worse than the Colts... and I don't like Schaub. Who are your other backs and receivers?

[FatWhiteKid]

Who's the better Week 2 play, Caddy Williams @ NYG or James Starks @ CAR?

[Criisp]

LMAO... what a blockbuster. Umm... hard to choose. Greene sucks, but Rodgers is the man. Charles is on a team worse than the Colts... and I don't like Schaub. Who are your other backs and receivers?

I have MJD, Hightower and Ingram as my backs. Vincent Jackson, Dez Bryant, Colston, Mike Sims Walker and Mike Thomas and Early Doucet.

I see this as upgrading 2 positions and downgrading 1.
