Personally I would drop Washington and play QB keep-away, especially since Shorts is back and eating into Washington's workload PLUS Hoyer is still probably a week away from playing.

To be honest I don't think Spiller is the handcuff you want for Ingram, and Randle isn't enough of an OBJ replacement that you'd sit, say, Diggs for him IMHO. If there's truly nothing else on the WW for the first place team (as in, Bortles and Flacco are his best options) then I'd play keep-away.


I agree with this. The first place team streamed Cousins last week, which worked out fine, and he picked up Alex Smith for this week, which is always a total gamble. I'll just hoard QBs until someone gets hurt I guess.

Got a trade proposal to swap Calvin Johnson for LeSean McCoy straight up. I assume this is definitely a "mash" but wanted some opinions. 10 team no PPR 4 bench etc.

My WRs: Megatron, Dez, Marshall, Allen Robinson, Donte Moncrief
My RBs: Ivory, Murray, Starks, Fat Eddie

Do it?

I'll be 8-3 after this week and locked for the playoffs.

Yep, pretty much exactly. I was first overall this year thanks to some horrible luck last season.

1: Eddie Lacy (:smithicide:)
20: Dez Bryant (:smith:)
21: Calvin Johnson
40: Carlos Hyde
41: Roethlisberger

I drafted Latavius Murray and Chris Ivory with the 80th and 81st overall picks. Marshall was drafted 113th and dropped.

I also picked up Tevin Coleman early and thought I was a smartypants to hold onto him after he got injured....welp.

I'm shocked they both lasted through your first pick plus two rounds, although I remember the OBJ/Brown/TY/Green hype trains were pretty huge too.

I got poo poo for holding onto Coleman from the Freeman owner in my work league. I hate it when the obnoxious "in hindsight I'm a genius" guy in the league hits gold.

I drafted Freeman and dropped him when it looked like Coleman was the #1 back. I dropped him right before Coleman got hurt and wasn't quick enough to pick him up off waivers because I thought he'd lose the job when Coleman came back.

The guy who grabbed him is #1 in the league now.

Team A:

QB: Tom Brady
WR: Antonio Brown
WR: Allen Robinson
RB: DeAngelo Williams
RB: Frank Gore
FLEX: LeGarrette Blount
TE: Tyler Eifert
DEF: Eagles

or

Team B:

WR: John Brown or LaFell
RB: Todd Gurley
RB: DeAngelo Williams

Exactly. Brown :(. Dude is the #1 WR and basically took off 2-3 weeks with Vick playing.

But, I have two offers on the table that would give me Team B if I accepted now.

It's also possible that the Flex could go from Blount to OBJ. But it remains to be seen.

If you guys aren't doing multi-tiered 3 way team trades without the other teams knowing, you're not doing fantasy football right :getin:

Three San Francisco 49ers playmakers will return to practice on Wednesday.

"Everybody will be on the field today for practice," said Jim Tomsula to open his midweek press conference.

The coach did add the caveat that NaVorro Bowman will get his weekly day of rest.

That means that Anquan Boldin (hamstring) and Carlos Hyde (foot) will participate in Wednesday's session to a certain degree. Tramaine Brock (shin) will also rejoin the team after missing the Week 9 contest against the Atlanta Falcons.

Tomsula said that Hyde was in on Monday getting his foot evaluated and the training staff has deemed the injury healed enough for him to participate.

"We've stayed on our protocol with him, and we'll see where he's at this week," Tomsula said. "He'll be out on the field today."
Interesting. Someone dropped Hyde in my league and I picked him up hoping he gets back healthy for fantasy playoffs.

Another thing to consider is that you'd have two maybe three new England players. In the case Brady has a bad day your team is in a huge hole. Team A has more diversity with strong players.

Edit: forgot blount, 3 or 4 NE players.

Best fill-in this week (all my QBs are dead or on bye):

Hasselbeck
Sanchez
Fitzpatrick

I'm also starting Romo. It's a 2 QB league, and I am currently rostering loving 4 of them (others are Big Ben, Brees and Luck).

Leaning towards Hasselbeck. Would have won last week if Hoyer hadn't thrown that pick. Or had, you know, played.

Jose Valasquez
Apr 8, 2005

In my infinite wisdom I have Ben Roethlisberger and Eli Manning both on bye this week
We have a 2QB cap, the available QBs are:
Alex Smith
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Jay Cutler
Jameis Winston
Tyrod Taylor
Brian Hoyer


Eli is the #4 QB and Roethlisberger has been great when he hasn't been hurt.
I have no idea what to do :negative:

Gotta love Dynasty leagues when people start trying to make a push, turned a huge massive trade that I think sets me up well for next year, $ after player names are keeper cost out of $250 next year.

Give:
Matt Jones (can't be kept)
C. West (can't be kept)
Jeremy Langford (can't be kept)
B. Cooks $25
Allen Robinson $25

Get:
Lamar Miller $20
Devonta Freeman $15
R. Cobb $35
TY Hilton $15

I'm out of the playoff race this year, so having two talented young runners and a top 15 dynasty WR seemed good for really only giving up two WR's, although I will miss A-Rob

Edit: I will probably ditch Cobb this offseason.

I've been doing this for the past few weeks in 2 leagues and never have any regrets.

They are both currently top 13 WR's in half PPR by averages. They have a combined 14 touchdowns in 9 games with Arob averaging 11 targets and Hurns averaging 8-9. The touchdown upside alone makes them viable WR's even in standard.

I'd be starting them both every week unless you have other surefire options.

and another thing: im not mad. please dont put in the newspaper that i got mad.
Which of these 3 running backs should I try to trade for (standard scoring): McFadden, Miller, McCoy. Note that the McCoy trade would help someone I'm fighting for a playoff spot with. Leaning toward McFadden over Miller on the theory that Romo will help open some holes. Also his schedule seems a little easier. McCoy seems riskier than either, but with more potential upside.


Things seemed so great on the RB front back when I had Bell and Randle starting :(
