Dunbar is going to catch a million passes, he's on pace for ~100 catches and ~1000 receiving yards. Certainly much more useful than DMC. I would drop Mariota and DMC and grab Hankerson and Dunbar.

Dunbar is real nice this year in PPR. He's like vintage Sproles.

Dunbar was a guy I targeted heavily last year early on anticipating this kind of usage and got nothing.

Dunbar was a guy that I drafted as a flier in my money league, where I'm 0-3, but ultimately had to drop.

I hate this stupid game.

Dropping Watkins for Ginn. Bad idea? It's mostly be a flex play, I already have Antonio Brown and TY as my 1/2.

I have 3 QBs right now (Carr, Brady, Wilson) and so I'm trying to trade Wilson away. I'm low on solid RBs so I'm thinking of trading to the guy who currently has Eli. My Russ for his Chris Johnson. Good idea, bad idea? Or do I just flat out drop Russ and pick up Lance Dunbar off the WW?

Why don't you just drop Carr for Dunbar while you work out a trade with Wilson and then just roll with one QB since Brady's bye will have passed after this week?

Is anyone trying to buy low on Demarco Murray? After seeing Matthews have a big game I'm hoping Demarco can do the same when healthy. I've got an offer of trading my TY Hilton for him.

I have DT, Martavis Bryant, Davante Adams, Vincent Jackson as the rest of my WRs and Lynch, Ivory, Lamar Miller and Doug Martin as my backs. Standard scoring.

My friend offered me Calvin Johnson for (Chris Ivory + Davante Adams). In case it's not clearly obvious, I'm in need of WR help and have reasonable depth at RB - but I'm worried that DET's o-line / lack of a run game is going to stunt Calvin's value and that I'm selling low on Ivory/Adams.

Am I overthinking this or should I take Megatron and run?

Personally I would start Cam against TB, but only start Carr over Luck if he's injured. You'll beat yourself up if you start Carr and Luck goes insane against Jacksonville, but you won't beat yourself up for starting your stud.

EDIT: Jacksonville is super bad.

Yeah but I'll look like a super genius if Carr keeps rolling and Luck eats it again. The way he's been playing plus his throwing shoulder being hurt just leaves me with the yips.

JStew with a leg injury, and Tolbert sidelined too. If you want a piece of the Carolina running game vs TB, Cameron Artis Payne is probably the pickup.

Anyone know if he's any good? I speculatively stashed him in dynasty and dropped my kicker for him in redraft more to prevent someone else to pick him up than anything.

You know the answer is C. Especially when neither of those 2 are even good handcuffs. Although I guess I would stand pat if there isn't anything on waivers.

He doesn't stink per se, but he's very green. However I do agree that any fantasy value he can provide this week, or any week this season for that matter, will be because of volume if JStew goes down. Don't forget, the Panthers also have Fozzy Whittaker to lean on as well, who is in his sophomore season and frankly a more skilled player. Ultimately I wouldn't rely too heavily on any of the Panthers backfield except for healthy JStew as an RB2, and even he's starting to slip into flex territory.

My question: someone in my 0 ppr ESPN league dropped Forsett...worth dropping any of these chucklefucks for him? I'm worried about dropping one of my defenses since people in this league tend to stash them...

If your girlfriend says hey to me that's our girlfriend now idc
I don't like McCoy ROS and he is not a guy that I would be trying to acquire.

Lacy is obviously the best player in the deal and I hesitantly lean towards accepting that trade, but I don't feel great about it.

e: Upon further thought, Spiller would likely never crack your starting lineup, so Ingram/Gore -> Lacy/McCoy is probably worth doing. I'd say yay.

Since my league is gay and bad and has a coach position, who do you like ROS, The Saints or The Raiders?

Saints look like hot garbage this year

Other options are Eagles, Bears, Browns, Jags, Buccanners, Skins. Currently have Saints/Bills.

I've always joked with my league about adding a HC position, so I am curious to know how that works as well.

Win or lose = points or -points
Penalties= -points


Not sure what else you'd have. Success rate of plays called? Red zone stops?

If wins and losses is the criteria then the Eagles are clearly the best option because while they have sucked poo poo for the first few weeks they are not a 4 win team like any of those other options could be.

You can do point margin, total points for their team, and usually a bonus for a win with a penalty for a loss.

We did it one year. They're awful. It's basically putting a pick 'em into Fantasy Football. Pretty sweet if you get Patriots HC, though, since they don't believe in mercy.

I really hope they figure out this Eagles/Redskins situation sooner rather than later. In my 2QB total points league, I have Jordan Reed and literally just spent FAAB this week to get the Eagles defense. I don't really have any droppable players, either, so I'd have to try and pull a trade. Otherwise, my only course of action is to drop Reed and the Eagles D for SURPRISE BYE WEEK replacements.

Yeah, it's gay and bad. Our scoring is 0 for a loss, 5 for a win + 1 per 4 points of victory. So if someone wins by 99 points it's worth 29 to me :v:

Still better than last year's +10 victory -10 loss (or tie :lol:) which was brutal if you were playing against someone that had the other team's coach, 20 point swing.
