I don't know... Tampa's D is playing crazy good right now, while NE can't stop the pass at all.... I think I'd start tampa...

This also begs the question "Why in the sweet hell are you hording 3 defenses?"

[ZidaneValor]

Buy low on Aaron Rodgers, lol.

[Dirk__Diggler]

4-2 this weekend..

Yeahh buddy.

[DatDieselDoe]

Who would you rather have in a 1 pt PPR league?

Julio Jones or Percy Harvin

[BornAChampion]

Do I go trade one of my 3 WRs to go after after a top-tier TE or RB?

Roster is

Stafford
AJ Green
Roddy White
Dwayne Bowe
Mikel LeShoure
Fred Jackson
Brandon Pettigrew

Bench

WR: Kenny Britt
RB: Shonn Greene
RB: Andre Brown
RB: Alfred Morris
RB: Steven Jackson

I got Kenny Britt on my bench so I'll put him in once I trade one of my WRs. Who do I go after?

From last thread

Looks like you just made lateral moves to me. You picked up a more explosive QB but one who is probably the same tier as Romo, then you added LeShoure (nice pickup), ditched Cook for 2 iffy TE's who have looked good, and then downgraded your flex spot big-time from Nicks to Nelson.

What? Bennett is definatley a huge improvement over Cook and I'd say Rudolph is too. Cook is the iffy one of the group. As far as Jordy and Nicks go I say that is pretty lateral. Once Rodgers gets his groove back Jordy will be elite again. On top of all that getting RGIII I would say he vastly improved his team

Julio Jones or Percy Harvin

I like both, but would still take Julio.

I like both, but would still take Julio.

In a bad bind where I'm pathetically weak at RB after McCoy and Sproles. Week 6 I don't even have a second RB since Sproles and Jonathan Stewart have their bye.

Feel like I may need to make some changes in the roster, but my only ace is Julio really. Other WRs are Antonio Brown, Torrey Smith and Amendola.

[DL Addict]

CJ is killing me in my auction league. Considering moving Stafford for another QB and RB, but sitting on Bilal Powell and Quizz Rodgers, who I think could prove valuable as the season goes on. Thoughts?

Current QB's: (Start 2, 6pts/td) Stafford, RG3 and Tannehill
Current RB's: (Start 2, 1ppr) CJ, Fred Jackson, Alfred Morris, Powell, Rodgers, Ringer, Tanner
Current WR's: (Start 3, 1ppr) Wayne, Dez, Roberts, Mike Williams, Hartline, E Sanders, V Brown, Steve Smith STL
Current TE: (Start 1, 1ppr) Tony G

Thinking of Stafford/? for Fitzpatrick/Locker and Sproles/Murray. I've made it to 3-0 with Morris and CJ, so I don't feel I need to panic. Greene has never proven himself to the level he's advertised, but the Jets never make the full switch. Alfred is on borrowed time, and Quizz... I'm uneasy about him getting a full shot. F-U CJ.

Pending health, I'd be happy with Shady and Sproles, and Julio and Percy. I'd try to move Torrey or Amendola for a decent backup for your byes and ride it out. Solid team.

What's the status on Ahmad Bradshaw? Looks like he's playing this Sunday @ Eagles, not sure what to do with Andre Brown either start him or start Charles vs Chargers at home. Obvious answer here is to start Charles, but SD has been good against the run even though they played the Titans in week 2 so should that stat even count lulz. Mainly what I'm getting at is, what's the outlook for Andre Brown?

Basically my big questions, what's to expect from Charles now seeing that he can still run. Week 2 doesn't count since they were beat early and he was pulled out, although week 1 wasn't that bad either. So glad to have Charles at the moment.

McCoy, I feel like Eagles are really holding this guy back. Much like in week 2 for Charles, last week Eagles were just stomped on horribly. I'm mostly concerned with the Eagles. I'm waiting for Andy Reid to screw his head back on and start running the ball again instead of relying on Vick to do everything.

Andre Brown, obviously he's the 2nd string now and much like my prediction I highly doubt Wilson will get his chance to shine outside of return man this season. What's in store for this guy? Obviously being 2nd back to Bradshaw is not bad, from what I've seen (I don't follow Giants VERY close) they like to split the ball between the backs.

Currently have McCoy, Lynch, Charles and Andre so it's not really a bad problem to have, but would like to know their value and outlook towards the rest of the season.

E-fist bump, repped.

I think at this point we have enough evidence to see the Titans offense isn't consistent enough to rely on Cook (even this week it was one big play), Rudolph is Ponders #2 target (at least until Simpson arrives perhaps, but Ponder looking more and more legit regardless), and Bennett will be a major red zone target for Eli.

Again I agree, the Packers have just worked through some of the toughest defenses they will see all year, Jordy is an excellent buy low -and GJ is on his way out/hobbled this year. And Nicks will clearly be dealing with the pain in his foot for the foreseeable future.

I've watched enough of the Cowboys to see that Romo is running for his life, and has to create a lot of his own plays, was sick of relying on him. And Rivers doesn't have the offensive line or the talent until Brown comes back. RG3 is not in the same tier as those two. The fact they have designed runs for him, and they have been successful so far this year, is all you need to know.

[Nainoa]

I put in a bid today for Daniel Thomas... Reggie Bush is just too fragile and Thomas had glints of potential last year.

[JFizzle23]

Just wondering why the thread move?

but I have Anquan Boldin on my roster and I desperately want him off it. It even worth picking up Heath Miller (lol. still a FA in 1 of my leagues) for him? I already have Vernon and Pitta for TE, though... there isn't a single enticing WR free. Would I be going full retard picking up 3 TE's?

and obviously he's not better than Vernon, but is Heath > Pitta?

[cap10raygun]

Should I do this trade. I give up Steven Jackson for Ben Tate and Mikel Leshoure. I have Foster as well so I've been trying to get Tate for a while. Is Leshoure a good investment?

Why were you asking about Percy? Trying to send Julio for Percy plus a runningback? If you can get anyone decent, in a ppr it might be an ok move.

[clubdreadbra]

Love the new Thursday games. After Monday it's only 3 days till some more football!

Anyway San Diego at Kansas. Excited to play Mathews finally this week I am

I would do this trade but you'll probably get varying opinions on this.

The Rams run blocking hasn't been too great this year and Jackson already has injuries popping up, who knows if he'll aggravate them.

The Lions clearly want Leshore to be the guy. Considering the opponent he only had an okay week, but if he does he can do it, they will give him all the carries, at least until maybe Best comes back if he does.

Tate, well it's nice to know if Foster ever gets hurt you have a built in top ten RB safety valve.

I'm up in the air on him or Lamar Miller. I personally think Miller has more potential but Dolphins management has such a hard on for Thomas

[westbigballin]

12k reps

My main QB is Roethlisberger and he has a bye.

Back up QB is Alex Smith, @NYJ, 12 points projected.

Available on waivers are

Locker, @Hou, 17 projected
Shaun Hill, Min, 14 projected
Sanchez, SF, 14 projected

Should I look pick up any of them or just stick with Alex Smith? I'm 1-2 so I NEED to win

Also who should I start at FLEX?
Dennis Pitta, Cle, 10 projected
Brian Hartline, @Ari, 11 projected

Is Hawkins on waivers?

yeah I'm debating flipping Julio for a WR/RB package. One guy did offer me Dez and Ridley but I declined it. Told him unless he gave up Reggie Wayne I wouldn't even entertain the trade. Even then Ridley is a bad return on Julio.

The guy with Harvin has CJ0K and FJax so he's hurting at RB, but I'm trying to keep up with what's going on with jackson.
