sry brah, but ish happens

[jalamb86]

yuja, how would you rank Bryce Brown/Tre Mason/Anthony Dixon?

I think Brown has the highest upside, but FJax won't be out that long and the Bills have the Jets followed by a bye. Mason will be the lead back for the rest of the season probably, but he's useless on passing downs and the Rams play from behind a lot.

Wat do?

B.Marshall for J.Graham

Fair deal?

[SkinnyBeast24]

Using my waivers on Miami D and Cody Parkey....nothing else I need or really want.

Dropping Baltimore D and Matt "hits the post on a 23 yarder" Prater.

Week 8 Line-up:

Romo
Marshall
VJAX
Garcon
Charles
Lacy
Reed
Tate
Miami D
Parkey

Bench: Davis/Crowell/Eli/Witten/Allen I wanna play him...but he needs to prove himself once more / J.bell

[b]1.) If Bush doesn't go again, should I go with Bell over Tate?

[b]2.) Friggin Tate is at home against OAK so I do have faith but Bell's been nice lately.

[frutistafreeze]

Whos is the better pick up for week 8 and on between McKinnon and Mason? Dropping either Khiry or B Quick for one of them

[Relomy]

2QB PPR. I just dropped Cousins:

QB: Brees, Big Ben
RB: Gio, Jerick
WR: Julio, Antonio
TE: Ertz
Flex: Tate
D: Seattle

Bench: Gordon, Vernon, Pierre, FJax, Randle, Crowell
IR: Mathews

Questions:

• I'm #2 on the WW -- do you think any of the WW adds this week are worth it for me? They seem to be all RBs which I feel like I'm "okay" at (though a bunch of them are now hurt.)
  
• Is it worth picking up Bryce or Tre Mason for ROS over my current starters? Gio/Tate/Jerick.
  
• Would you start Randle in the flex over any of those 3?

Do you waivers reset every week?

I hope Tate does well this week against OAK. My entire team was awful last week.

McKinnon still available? He should've been picked up forever ago. I would go for him.

I don't think it would be worth it in your situation. The only one I would look at is Mason to replace Jerick. He may have a better opportunity to score, but touches will probably be the same.

Also curious about this. I survived against our best player! Thanks for the help gentlemen. Now I have another daunting task of playing the newly assigned best player... Currently I'm attempting to pick up McKinnon, McFadden, or Mason & hopefully Floyd on the side.
My current team sits at:
Luck
Charles, Hillman
A. Johnson, Sanu
Gates
Watkins
Bench: Patterson, J. Hill, I. Crowell, K. Davis.

Honorable Mention Waiver Players: D. Allen, C. Clay, Vereen, Bowe, Baldwin, McKinnon, McFadden, Mason, Floyd (Both), B. Pierce.

Wutdo all mighty wizards, wutdo...

[frutistafreeze]

McKinnon still available? He should've been picked up forever ago. I would go for him.

Can Khiry be dropped yet or would it be wise to hold on to him another week or so?

[hardestgainer]

Thinking about dropping Antone Smith just because ATL has been playing so chitty for the most part. Should I pick up Hillman, Vereen(who I dropped before the injury), or Tre Mason?

[Devil-spawn]

would u drop oliver to pick up one of the potential rb pickups this week(mason, bryce, dixon, robinson) to block other teams knowing that SD plays on Thursday and oliver wouldn't clear waivers by then to be used anyway? This week that is...

[Ben6485]

This trade was just accepted in my league by the 11th and 12th place teams.
Both 1-6
Seem legit?12 team PPR
Percy could be of value, but Calvin prob won't be playing this weekend and will be on bye next weekend.
I've had a few guys text me about it, wanting to get me in on the veto.

let tacos be tacos. i cant stand leagues where members can veto

[frutistafreeze]

Would I be a potato to drop Newton for Tannehill

[Relomy]

I would probably be safe and hold on to him for another week or so with PT out. Though Cadet/Ingram are bound to make him fairly useless..

I'm curious to see how he does against SEA.

[Ben6485]

My only concern is that one of these guys are gonna try and flip miller or johnson to a top team. I guess that's something that I would veto later. I'm commish, but we've done league vote since we started the league back in 07, so haven't changed it just because of tbat.

in my big money league there's been 1 trade passed and every other trade (like 5 or 6 trades) have been vetoed

****ing bull, next year pushing for commish approval

Khiry can be dropped and I'd probably hold on to Newton

It's my big money league as well. I'm not gonna veto it, but will if that guy is immediately traded to a top team(if obvious collusion). I'd like to get commish approval, but theres no way they'd give it to me. I know of 3-4 people that would be ok with it.

[Oranix]

halp

choose 2 WRs:

Kelvin B vs. SEA
Torrey Smith @ CIN
Deandre Hopkins @ TEN

I'm leaning towards Torrey and Deandre... should I avoid kelvin @ seattle?

[nykwan]

What ate thoughts on this trade?
Someone wants to trade their Martellus Bennett and MichaelCrabtree for my Tre Mason.
I only have Vernon Davis at TE and he goes on Bye week 8. My current RBs are LeSean McCoy, LeVeon Bell, Ronnie Hillman and Tre Mason. My WRs are Julio Jones, michael Floyd and Brian Quick. I also have Branden Boldin and Antone Smith, but in probably dropping them this week.
Is Tre Masons potential enough to keep him and just pick up a TE of waivers?

[just4kickz]

I have to give up 2 of these RB's for a trade. 1pt PPR. Who would you give up? It's for Andrew Luck. He already has Aaron Rodgers and he's desperate for rb's.

Jerrick McKinnon
Joique Bell
Tre Mason
Mark Ingram
Brandon Oliver
