Due to injuries I need to pickup one of the following:
I'm thinking Garcon and Jennings have the highest floors. Marvin has the highest upside this week, but could always bust. Matt Jones doesn't have a great matchup this week, but I'm thinking still has a chance to become a decent starter as the season progresses. What would you guys do?

This is probably the wrong place to ask, but w hat is this "Lipstick Apathy" thing I'm seeing with avatars off? To keep it related to the thread, how are people feeling about Desean Jackson rest of season vs, for example, Hurns or Moncrief e: or Lafell? I'm thinking of starting him this weekend since I need as many points as I can get if I want to make the playoffs. yeah I eat ass fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Nov 4, 2015 |

IKillForPie posted:I already have Bell stashed for next year as my first round pick - hence my 2-6 team going further into the dumpster fire. I was thinking of grabbing Charles just to stay on my bench until further notice. Should I be grabbing him right away or waiting until news of his recovery? I'm assuming there is no off-season trading going on so up until the playoffs are start I can make any changes I want. The answer to your question depends almost entirely on your keeper rules, but regardless I'd encourage you to think hard about whether you want to use one of your keepers on Bell in the first, which is providing you no real value.

Made a trade for Jeremy Hill. But, the trade won't process till Friday even though it was accepted yesterday morning. Hill plays on Thursday. My flex player (Blount) was part of the trade. I have no flex this week now.

Just curious what would the reasoning be behind not keeping him? I guess my assumption would be that he would be healthy by next season and probably be a top 5 pick? I am under the impression that the keeper rules for my league is that everyone can keep a maximum of 2 players off their team for their first and second round picks respectively. Assuming both RBs are healthy would it not be important to try and pickup 2 top RBs right away? This is my first year playing FF so i'm asking genuinely not with sarcasm. If I have them sitting on my IR and they are not healthy then I can just leave my top two picks open or swap them to other players?

Chill Penguin posted:How do you account for the 24 fantasy points they scored against EJ Manuel & the Bills in Week 7? (before their bye, at that!) Jaguars D/ST this year: 10, 6, 2, 11, 2, 1, 24 EJ is a horrible quarterback and that was the London game. I think Geno is marginally better than EJ, and IF the Jets have all of their offensive weapons going into this game (after being embarrassed by Oakland last week), I wouldn't want to play Jacksonville's D.

Your keeper rules are basically why he included the caveat that it entirely depends. In many cases, keeper leagues allow you to retain a player for the cost of a draft pick 1-2 rounds before where they were originally picked up. This allows you to keep players like Gurley, Robinson, Cooper, or many other breakout players at a much later round than they would typically fall while still keeping your early round picks available to see what's there in the upcoming season. In your case, Bell is a first round player costing a first round pick. It adds no extra value beyond ensuring that you are guaranteed to have him. With your rules it probably does make sense to take the two best players available because they would likely be your 1-2 round picks anyway.

Hey guys, I'm currently 6-2, first in my division and have a really solid roster all the way around. The one thing I am concerned with is playing Matt Ryan as my QB rest of season since he has been a turnover machine and can't find the end zone. Who would you rather have rest of season? Philip Rivers - The owner just lost SSS and Bell in the same week and is desperate. My worries are around his ability to survive the rest of the season even though he is clearly the best QB I could trade for. Cam Newton - The owner also had Brees and needs RBs badly which I have in spades. Edit: Big Ben - didn't look great coming off injury last week but not sure if that's cause for concern rest of season. I also have AB so would benefit from both. Owner of Ben needs RBs badly. Is there anyone else I should target? Also, out of these backs, which 3-4 would you keep and who would you trade? Put my initial thoughts below. Keep Ingram Gurley Lewis Trade Miller Charmander Langford MrSargent fucked around with this message at 21:20 on Nov 4, 2015 |

I'm in a .5 PPR league and I want to dump Kelce for ASJ because I am a TB homer and I hate relying on the KC offense. I also want to dump Frank Gore because I hate relying on the IND offense. What caliber of player(s) should I be looking at in return for those two players? Mostly I can't justify hanging onto 2 tight ends during Kelce's bye and I don't want to just drop Kelce if I can avoid it. I think ASJ will be at least as good when he comes back.

I also want to dump Frank Gore because I hate relying on the IND offense. Kelce is ranked TE #4 in Half PPR so I don't know why you would want to trade him. The Kc offense is bad but he seems to be doing fine anyway. If you are getting rid of Gore, who are your other RBs? Gore is great depth because he sees a good amount of volume. His trade value is also really low imo so you wouldn't be getting much. Also, what are your biggest needs on your team, that would help me suggest trades.

WRs are Dez (who I don't trust to be good till Romo comes back), Mike Evans, Allen Hurns, Stevie Johnson, Marvin Jones and Donte Moncrief. Gore is a step up from some of my other dudes, for FLEX consideration, but I figure no one else on my team will fetch anything decent in a trade. I'm 4/4 and I need to get solid somewhere else more than I need the #4 TE. Playoffs are probably out of reach but I need to gamble. My season has been rough, started with Romo and Dez, then lost Foster, then lost SSSr. Drafted Devonta Freeman but dropped him right before he took off. Just rough stuff.

Since you are in win-now mode, I would try shopping Dez around with Gore for a solid WR1, and maybe go after a high-end WR2 for Kelce, maybe can get a low WR1. I actually think you are ok at Running Back with Williams/Yeldon/Lynch but your receivers are very boom/bust.

The only reason kelce is rated so high is he had two good games early in the season. Since he's been middling like all other TEs. I drafted and dropped him and haven't missed em.

This team is 3-5 in a 10 man league. QB: Palmer or Newton WR: Antonio Brown WR: Emmanuel Sanders WR: Randall Cobb RB: Charmander West RB: CJ Anderson TE: Gronk I lost Bell and Foster. I don't know who I can trade to get back to winning. Nobody wants Cobb. I can get rid of Cobb and promote Crabtree or Stevie Johnson. Sell off Gronk maybe? I lost by .35 points this week after a loving stat correction in a crucial matchup.

Is anyone believing that Antonio Andrews is going to have fantasy value this year or beyond? Titans just named him 'lead back,' but I'm not sure volume touches in that Offense really excites me. Seems like the general consensus is that David Cobb should get that job sooner rather than later.

# ? Nov 4, 2015 23:39 |

I like Cobb's chances better now with the coaching change. This based purely on the speculation that an effective running game with Cobb gives Mularkey an easy way of distinguishing himself from his predecessor.
|
# ? Nov 4, 2015 23:50 |
|
The general consensus may be that Cobb will rise to the top but he's not some amazing talent so largely it comes down to who Mularkey favors, which could swing either way. I'm taking his comments about Andrews at face value currently since Cobb is a rookie who has barely practiced. Which would make Andrews likely an RB3/Flex player ROS. Not exciting although some teams may be in desperate need of RBs who see any volume.

I'm commissioner of a league and considering veto'ing a trade for the first time in the league's 7 year history. Curious as to what goons think before I make my final call. Team is a 14 team PPR with a large starting roster, no keeper consideration. In the past 24h the following happened, in this order: 1. I received a trade offer from Team A. His James Jones (GB) for my J-Stew. 2. I received a notification that Team B accepted an offer from Team A to trade Team A's Julio Jones (ATL) for Team B's Eddie Lacy. 3. I received the following email from Team A: ----- Subject : wrong j jones lol I sent a trade request for Julio Jones instead of James Jones... stupid abbreviations on mobile. Can you kill that so I can send the right offer? ----- On its face, the trade is uneven. Absolutely. WR1 for RB46. However, at draft day, the players had roughly equal value ($60+, top of the "first round") and the worst of Lacy's schedule is over. It is plausible that he finishes stronger in relative value than Jones, and Team A desperately needs a RB2. It could have, in theory, been a "sell-high, buy low" for a RB needy team where Team A is now experiencing regret. And I don't try to protect people from stupidity. However, his offer of James Jones to me in (1) makes me believe his email in (3), and the trade really is not near balanced on its face. relevant section of league bylaws: quote:TRADES Goons, what would you do?

I'm currently in 5th place in my PPR cash league (12 person) and desperate for a decent RB. QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, WR/RB/TE QB: Andy Dalton, Blake Bortles WR: Julian Edelman, Demaryius Thomas, Stefon Diggs, Donte Moncrief, Rishard Matthews, Brandon LaFell RB: Matt Forte, Jeremy Langford, Charles Sims, James Starks, Shane Vereen TE: Greg Olsen K: Dan Bailey DEF: Carolina My league is really difficult to get trades going (there hasn't been a single trade yet), but I got a couple counter-offers: #1: Edelman or Diggs for Chris Ivory #2: Olsen for Latavious Murray and Jordan Cameron I'm leaning towards taking #1 since Olsen's points would be much more difficult to replace. So... Edelman or Diggs?
