Fantasy Football Think Tank III

[Nainoa]

This is a replacement thread for the Fantasy Football Think Tank for you guys who have questions between now and when the Fantasy sports section comes back on line tomorrow... At which time this thread will be transferred to it's new home.

Boy it's real on the fence strategically... This could either help you and get you that push you need to at least make the final 4/bowl... OR it will bend you over like the basement scene in Pulp Fiction.

Do you think the Welker guy could toss a sweetener in... like maybe his back up QB or a #5 RB?


What do your Current WR's look like... And what's available in the Free Agent Pool?

My WR's:

AJ Green
Jordy Nelson
Holmes
Antonio Brown
Crabtree

Everyone but Green has fuked me on a weekly basis. If I bench em-they score. If I play em-they score 5 if I'm lucky. My RB's: Rice, Sprolls, Tolbert. His RB's: MJD, Ryan Mathews, Hillis. He also has Roddy White and Plax

[Nainoa]

Something we should look at, for people in Keeper Leagues is grabbing those last second Free Agents, like Ed Dickson and Matt Flynn that can be folded over into next year for cheap keepers.

I should still start ravens d ??

Ray lewis out

I could grab NE d

[TeamDestruction]

That's another thing...I think there's a decent chance Rodgers doesn't even play week 16 so I might as well get something out of him. What do you think?

edit: Welker plays Denver and Miami the last 2 weeks of the season

Correction Welker plays Miami and Buffalo the last 2 weeks of the season.

I would say it is tough to trade Rodgers, but since it is looking more and more likely he will sit out the last couple weeks.

Could you get more for Rodgers than just Welker?

Even though they had one good game recently... I would rather give my grandfather an erotic back massage for christmas than start the Pats D.

I've had Devon Hester benched this entire season, and i'm thinking it might be time to drop him. Wise move to pick up: Peyton Hillis? Montario Hardesty? or Jake Ballard (my only tight end is Fred Davis). Any thoughts are welcome.

This, and I'm a Pats fan.

[.aeterna]

pats D is about as porous as you can get, and im also a huge longtime fan

i picked up ballard...but regarding ur choices...probably hardesty

hillis will be back in a few weeks...but who knows if he'll be effective (especially considering the fact that fantasy playoffs are dam close)

I went ahead and picked up Ballard for now. Cleveland faces some very tough defenses in the coming weeks..

If you're looking for a TE... I'd go Ed Dickson...

I'd stay the hell away from the Browns as a whole... At this point owning any of their players is akin to have sex with a fat chick and when she tells you that she has herpes you take the condom off to experience maximum friction.

[cudder]

julio, tolbert, stevie, or beans in the flex?

[Nainoa]

julio, tolbert, stevie, or beans in the flex?

I don't know that Julio is even playing... What's the status of Stevie? (Should issue?)

Beanie is still playing through that knee for the entire season...


Uh...


So I guess I'm going to say Tolbert, since he appears to be the only guy who isn't carrying his medical insurance card in his front pocket this week!

[PermaBulk42]

lol strong analogy. Only other TEs available (Dickson is already rostered) are Fasano, Tamme, Watson, Cook, Heap, and Z.Miller

Anyone with Rodgers should be adding Matt Flynn as a precaution. Flynn is really good, he'll still have major weapons around him (even if they sit Jennings and Driver with Rodgers, he'll still have Nelson, Jones, and Cobb...), and he'll be playing for a starting contract next year, so there's no way he'll mail it in.

[ThaWorldIsYours]

Today is my league's trade deadline, and I've got 3 deals in the works. 2 of them are pretty much agreed to. 1 is still iffy.


My current lineup:


QB - Cam
WR1 - Welker
WR2 - Steve Smith
WR3 - Roddy White
RB1 - Ray Rice
RB2 - DMC
TE - Gates
FLEX - Jones-Drew
DEF - Green Bay
K - Seabass

Bench:

Tim Tebow
Tony Gonzalez
Jonathan Stewart
Damian Williams
Joe McKnight (swooped last night when Greene went down)
Cinci D





if all 3 trades go through:

QB - Cam
WR1 - Mike Wallace
WR2 - Larry Fitz
WR3 - Steve Smith
RB1 - Adrian Peterson
RB2 - Ray Rice
TE - Gates
FLEX - Mojo
DEF - Green Bay
K - Seabass

Bench:

Irrelevant




10 team auction league, 4th year of league

[Nainoa]

lol strong analogy. Only other TEs available (Dickson is already rostered) are Fasano, Tamme, Watson, Cook, Heap, and Z.Miller

The mediocre, yet safe money says Tamme... But my gut says that as long as Matt Moore is around, he's going to look for Fasano in the red zone... So I'm going to say Fasano.

Yeah I agree... If Flynn is still available at the end of this week (After my week 11 bye's are done) I'm going to add him...

[Fabs23]

IN.

Got a team that had Campbell and Schaub as my QB's. Only QB left that was on the wire was Palco or whatever his name is from KC. I refuse to make a trade from one of the guys vulturing my keepers to give me a middle of the road qb....ill prefer to finish around .500 and have a team to work with next year.

[TeamDestruction]

Yeah I agree... If Flynn is still available at the end of this week (After my week 11 bye's are done) I'm going to add him...

I'm thinking about it, but I'm going to see how well Hasselback does as a fill in for Brees bye week and go from there.

In on new thread

Man I had a sh!tty draft, somehow tied for 1st with most points scored and least against, if I win this matchup I'll own 1st outright and will proly win the regular season monies.
Hustle hard.

[Shangius]

2nd most points scored. Most points scored against. 4-6 **** this sh!t.

I have to win out to make the playoffs.

[MisterDiapers]

Anyone get any news on Mcfadden's condition?

[karas]

Anyone get any news on Mcfadden's condition?

Darren McFadden (foot) missed Raiders practice again on Friday and has been ruled out for Week 11.
McFadden didn't get in a single practice rep this week and will be replaced by Michael Bush for at least one more game. Incredibly slow to recover from his now five-week mid-foot sprain, DMC should have a shot to return in Week 12.

Looking like a week 12 return

[Mac_xX]

Start David Neslon (listed as probable) vs the Dolphins or Steve Breaston vs the Pats? The Chiefs have Palko at QB but NE's pass d is awful. Non-ppr.

[litljay]

Oh the agony!!! I started both Mcgahee and Greene. 1.7 points total.

[BeReal23]

So I offered Rodgers and Tolbert for Welker and MJD. He's clearly beating me on Welker for Rodgers and his QB's are Staffard and Cassel so I think he'll go for it.

[dirtdickens]

Bradshaw is out
