So what are all my Denver DST bros doing for their bye this week? I'm lost without them. They've out produced every other player on my roster. :(

Here are my choices.. none sound great to me:
Eagles @CAR
Steelers @KC
Redskins vs TB
Falcons @TEN
Bucs @WAS
Dolphins vs HOU

I'm so lost without them. McManus too. :(

I've had the Rams Defense stashed on my bench since the beginning for this exact week, once this is done I can drop them and Manning so I finally have some bench space.

The Jags are a terrible NFL team that somehow work into a fantastic fantasy team because they only have like three people that can be reliably counted on to do their jobs.

I say this as life-long Jags fan.

I got offered A.J. Green for Antonio Brown, straight up. 0.5 ppr. I own both Dalton and Ben.

My gut says no and to stick it out until Ben comes back, but then again I'm 2-4.

Any thoughts?

Definite no. Ben has a decent chance of returning this week and in PPR it's not even close.

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

I need a QB to cover Peyton for his bye the rest of the season. In my 1 QB league where everybody rosters a backup anyway, these are some of my options:

Stafford
Smith
Kaep
Fitzpatrick
Hoyer
McCown

Standard scoring. How should I rank these considering ROS?

12 team, 1 PPR.

I got a message from a friend looking to trade for either Amari Cooper or Jarvis Landry.

My team:

RB
Devonta Freeman
Justin Forsett
Ameer Abdullah
Bishop Sankey
Ahmad Bradshaw

WR
E. Sanders
Larry Fitzgerald
Jarvis Landry
Amari Cooper
Martavis Bryant
Stevie Johnson

His team:

RB
Leveon Bell
Arian Foster
Latavius Murray
Jonathan Stewart
Knile Davis
Dexter McCluster
Karlos Williams

WR
ODB
Kendall Wright
Torrey Smith
Reuben Randall


I'm 5-1 and don't really need to shake things up, but I'm very thin at RB behind Freeman and Forsett. I love my WRs, but can only start 3 of them (or 4 if I put one in instead of a QB in our Superflex spot).

Any thoughts on if I should give up Landry or Cooper for someone like J Stew or maybe Murray to help out my depth? Or am I overthinking and should just stay put. Or try to offer something else for someone like Foster...

Buying low in fantasy football is a lot like a trust fall exercise. Your higher intellect is telling you it's Correct and Probably Safe, but as soon as you do it your brain looks at those terrible scores and goes "AAAAAH WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!"

uh, why do you think you need a trade? Maybe a WR, but unless you're starting 3 WR 2 RB and a bunch of flexes also, that roster is already p good.

I'd probably drop Starks. He'll only be startable if Lacy is actually out, whereas Maclin is up there with Hilton and Cooper as one of your best WRs. I'd drop Wright before Maclin too, and probably Clay. But Starks for sure.

DON'T FAKE THE FUNK
Grimey Drawer
I just got my first serious trade offer and it seems like it really helps both of us about the same. I'm leaning towards taking it but I could use some advice.

(Standard, 2 QB league)

Send:
Odell Beckham Jr.
LeSean McCoy

Receive:
DeAndre Hopkins
Jarvis Landry
Chris Johnson

My team:
QB: Luck, Wilson, Hoyer
RB: McCoy, Vereen, Sims, Karlos Williams
WR: Beckham Jr., Tate, Kendall Wright, Kamar Aiken
TE: Kelce

I feel like Hopkins for ODB is pretty much a straight trade at this point, although the Texans have a somewhat easy schedule, their QB situation makes me nervous. I'm super thin at RB already, and in the long run CJ2K might be worse off than Shady if Shady can stay healthy. Landry is just to sweeten the pot a bit, but he might be better than any WR2 I currently have. I'd also need to drop someone as my bench is full, and I'm guessing this guy hopes I drop Williams if I take the trade.

FWIW we're both 4-2 and don't play each other during the regular season.

Lamar Miller is a good buy-low right? I'm about to flip John Brown and Stefon Diggs for him in my 1PPR dynasty league. (I don't need either of them.) I think that's insanely good for me, but hey, the trading partner wants what he wants.

Hopkins has a pretty good chance to end the season the #1 overall WR this year. Odell so far has been a bit up and down and is nursing a hamstring injury which is also what Mccoy is nursing and those tend to linger. It would leave you a bit thin at RB with Chris Johnson as your best back though.

Looking to trade Carson Palmer after this week is over since he's just filling in for Aaron Rodgers' bye, the only person who seems interested so far is offering one of Hilton/Moncrief/Ryan Matthews. I'm kind of leaning toward Hilton, but I'm wondering if I should ask for more. I don't particularly want 2 QBs on my roster so I'm motivated to make the trade, I just don't want to jump at the first opportunity if something better is out there. What do you guys think?

Ehhh, John Brown in 1 PPR dynasty is a really appealing target, on pace for 88-1300-5 (after his most recent possible outlier game, to be fair). Though Diggs is just a flier until he has more sustained production. Miller is in a contract year and is an RB, so I'd bank on Brown being worth more next year than Miller. I like Miller and own him in several leagues, but he's much riskier to buy into than Brown at this point, especially in full PPR.

We have an opening to take over a team in SA's League of Posts.

It's a 14 team, PPR, keeper league. Pretty good group of guys, with the gimmick being that you have to post to stay in the league. We're hoping to build a nice long-term group of owners via natural selection.

The team to be taken over is this one:
http://fantasy.nfl.com/league/3332748/team/14
Details on how to take over the team are here (you need to message me your email here, or on reddit if you don't have messages on SA):
http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3735581&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=8#post451600510

The record will make it difficult to reach the playoffs this year, but the team does have some real talent to use as keepers or to trade away to get better value keepers. Looking for someone to come in and take on this effort -- please check it out and consider it! Thanks.

Yeah, Hilton is probably an overpay for Palmer anyway, depending on league specific stuff. But it's an easy easy trade when you own Rodgers.

His QBs right now are Bradford and Kaepernick and he has Julio, K.Allen, Hilton, and Moncrief as recievers. I feel like Palmer for Hilton is a trade that will actually help both of us since my recievers are Landry, Hurns, M.Jones, and G.Tate

I got roped into playing fantasy football with some friends and I could use some trade advice since I don't know a ton about football, fantasy or otherwise:

Send:
Antonio Gates
Mark Ingram
Allen Hurns

Receive:
Drew Brees
Vincent Jackson
Duke Johnson

My Team:

QB: Aaron Rodgers, Tyrod Taylor
RB: Devonta Freeman, Frank Gore, Joseph Randle, Mark Ingram
WR: Allen Hurns, Marvin Jones, Travis Benjamin, Demarius Thomas
TE: Antonio Gates, Martellus Bennett

It doesn't seem like a great deal, but I'm not sure Taylor will be playing this week, so I'd like to have another QB and most of the even decent ones have been picked up already.

Welcome to the lacy train boys, have fun. lacy has caused me two losses so far and probably raised my blood pressure a good amount too. Worrying about him every week is almost not worth the potential of him coming back guns blazing, at least imho.

I'm just hoping with the cold they'll have to run more. But if I see Starks out there for the first week 8 snap..... I might snap.
