I know, just wondering if it's worth a stash. If he has a good game or two I'd prob be able to flip him on name recognition alone.

Basically I'm trying to justify dropping one of the Dallas RBBC, because having 3 rb's from the same team hurts my soul.

If you'll actually be able to trade him for someone worthwhile then I'd drop McFadden for him. Doesn't seem likely to me, but hey, you never know.

I'm currently trying to dump Peyton on injury ravaged teams for like a WR2/3 type and am having no luck.

Thinking of offering this trade in my 12-man league. Guy only has 3 RBs, and Charles is dead. Going to offer Ingram and maybe Garcon for his Cobb. Don't know if it's that fair, but hoping to buy low on Cobb/prey on Charles being hurt.


Current rosters:

Me:
Dalton
Forte, Ingram, Yeldon, CJA, Karlos, CMike
Cooper, Keenan Allen, Garcon, Baldwin
Julius, Reed

Him:
Brees, Cam
Charles, J. Randle, A. Williams
Cobb, Fitz, R. Randle, White, Michael Floyd
Bennett, Witten

Should I lowball with just Ingram first? Or should I stay put?

E: .5 PPR and added CMike just in case.

Self bump, any input on this?

Hey guys! I'm having a good time, what about you?

I am the perpetual #1 waiver spot (thank you reverse standings!) so I grabbed Charmander this week. I'm thinking I'll turn around and flip him for a QB since I really need the help there due to Peyton.

Who should I set my sights on? The JC owner has Ryan and Cam so I think I'll start there. It's 10 man .5 ppr keeper

Yes and Tyrod (sprained MCL makes it hard to be a mobile quarterback).

Well you're certainly not dropping him, and you're not playing him so long as he's not practicing, so I'm not sure it matters how John Fox decides to show his contempt for the media on any given day. Proceed as usual.

quote:

Am I the only one thinking Knile Davis will win the starting job?

He's only ever been a volume guy. By many metrics, he's been one of the least effective running backs in football whenever he's been a starter (e.g. 42nd of 43 in DVOA last year, bottom five in EPA/P etc) . The walrus likes CWest anyways so CWest it is.

Brady's problem was offensive line musical chairs. Peyton's problems are A) being old as balls (which has given him a severe case of noodle-arm), B) Kubiak trying to make Peyton be a Kubiak QB (lol), and also C) an offensive line full of suck.

I'd rather have Cutler.

Also :siren:I dropped CJA today:siren: (for Charmander).

Kept Ronnie just in case. Couldn't justify keeping both.

"Yes, I remember the Aguamoose..."
A league mate is looking to trade his RBs as he is very low on all of them, and wants WRs/Defenses, 2 positions I am strong at. He's got:

QB: Palmer, Bridgewater
RB: Lacy, Miller, Gore, Vereen, C. West, Antonio Andrwws
WR: Marshall, Cooper, Aikin, Cruz
TE: Kelce

I have:

QB: Eli, Bradford
RB: Foster, Ivory, Latavius, Christine Michael
WR: Julio, demaryius, Allen Robinson, John Brown, Ty Montgomery
TE: Walker
D: Jets and Panthers

I am 5 - 0 and it's a 14 team league. I'm tempted to trade Demaryius and the Panthers and see if I can get Lacy and Cooper... Should I stick with what I've got or are there good trades to be made?

Ok, so I picked up Barnidge to replace Witten on the bye week

Here is my dilemma:

Next week is Denver's Bye, and I have Denver DST, B. McManus, and D.Thomas

There's no way I'm dropping Denver DST, I have enough depth at WR to replace Thomas and McManus is expendable but I'd rather keep him cause he's been good

Does it make sense for me to drop two players in order to pick up a backup D and K for the bye week, or do I just drop one guy for the D and stream kickers hoping to pick McManus up again on the wire or as a FA in the future?

I was originally going to drop my backup TE after Witten's by week, but Barnidge might end up having some value

'Cuz it's KILLIN' ME!
I'm in a 12-person standard scoring ESPN league, (3 WR, 2 FLEX) and I'm currently ranked first. I have a ton of WRs, but I'm pretty weak at RBs. (Other than Marshawn, I have TJ Yeldon and Antonio Andrews.)

Someone's offering me Andre Ellington one-on-one trade for any of the following:

Emmanuel Sanders
Sammy Watkins
Allen Hurns
Kendall Wright
and now Victor Cruz.(questionable, depending on actual playing.)

I might be willing to part with Wright, but he said he's really interested in Sanders or Hurns, though. My fear with Ellington is that while he was gone, the other Cardinals RBs pretty much established themselves so much that he's probably not going to get as many snaps.

Is this a trade worth pursuing?

Reggie Died
Mar 24, 2004
Could use some feedback on a trade;

My: TJ Yeldon
for
His: Karlos Williams

On the surface I think Yeldon has far more value (dedicated 3 down back, not currently concussed, or behind McCoy on the depth chart if/when he returns from his hamstring injury). But it's a keeper league, and based on where they were drafted, Williams could be kept for a 12th round pick next year, whereas keeping Yeldon would cost me a 1st (and as such, probably wouldn't be kept).

Yeldon is currently my 3rd running back; behind ADP and Freeman and in front of Ellington and CJ Anderson. We start 2RB and a flex, but since ADP has already had his bye, I'm not sure how big of a loss Yeldon would be if Freeman keeps it up and Ellington remains a descent Flex option.

We haven't seen anything from him yet, so yeah that's a bad trade for you. Right now we cannot say with certainty that he would be the Knile Davis-replacing JC from yesteryear, because the situation contextually is no longer the same.
Yeah, I pretty much knew that but needed someone to tell me. I've actually worked out this trade instead:

R Cobb
J Forsett
A Hurns

for

A Foster
C West
J Maclin

It's a risk for me but I'm not very happy with my team and I'm not sold on Forsett producing long-term so I think I'm going to pull the trigger.

If he'd do it for Cruz you should make that trade in a heartbeat. I don't think Cruz is even worth rostering, personally.

I agree completely. Just wanted to mention his return game statline. It's also likely he was on a snap count of some kind and/or Arians didn't see a point in risking Andre's health in a game the Lions lost on their first drive.
