My zero RB team has left me flush at WR, with several RB2-types that will be a nightmare to predict who to start each week.

The Charles owner in my league just lost Keenan Allen, and currently has Crabtree as his WR1. He's open to trading Charles for Maclin, but isn't quite there yet - I'm thinking about adding one of my RBs on top to sweeten the deal before he gets any other offers. And no, he doesn't have Ware, unfortunately.

Who should I add of the following RBs for my counter offer? 12 team, .5 PPR league.

M. Gordon
Hill
Gore
Crowell


My team:
QB: Carr
RB: Gordon, Hill, Crowell, Gore, McKinnon, Sproles
WR: AJG, Evans, Maclin, DJax, Diggs, Marvin Jones
TE: Ertz

Well, in Whoville they say - that his tiny hands grew three sizes that day.

Does anyone know of a good site for waiver wire auction values? It's my first year doing faab and I'd like some guidance on how much of my $100 budget to spend on Will Fuller especially now because Watkins maybe out for awhile (I knew I shouldn't have drafted that glass statue).

You want to trade multiple useful players for an injured player whose backup put up 200 yards yesterday?

Not that I know of but you can use all the Waiver Wire articles as guidelines. I would spend much more than $10 on him. He is a rookie, and you need that money for 12+ more weeks.

July Mock Draft 2014

.5 PPR Dez and Charles for Hilton and Abdullah. Normally I laugh this off but Dez does poo poo without Romo where he is barely rosterable. Everyone in the league is really down on Dez, too, so I can't get value for him. I know week one and all but if Dez has another bad week I won't to be able to get even a WR3 for him. I do like Charles when he comes back and I have Ware but feel with him in the deal I'm paying too much just to sever Dez.

If your leagues Dez owner is panicking, buy low if you can. We're still too close to the draft for trade rape but you never know.

Same for Zeke.

So you're saying I shouldn't try to buy low on a Hall of Fame RB who, despite an injury to start the season, still has a strong shot at being an RB1 by sending my Flex/replacement level players?

I listen to the footballguys waiver wire show and they give out specific ranges for FAAB bids. If you don't want to listen, someone on the rotoworld forums usually just posts the numbers in a FAAB thread. How much you bid varies depending on your league though.

oof if this thread is any indication of the general pub I think im gonna try a couple buy low offers on Zeke.

Dont know if his expectations were set at Walter Payton but he outscored my AD, Ingram, and Freeman picks by far and ill take my chances with him picking it up.

I'm in an 8 team work/money league (it was gonna be 12, but one guy bailed out and then everyone else followed suit). Standard scoring.

I think I kinda painted myself into a corner at QB and am just gonna have to stream unless something happens. I drafted Rivers and Winston, and wound up dropping them both separately for Eli and Stafford. Obviously Eli is my favorite to start next week against NO, but should I be using a waiver claim to try and get back Winston? His schedule doesnt seem to get favorable until like week 7, but he's also being talked up for a breakout year.

I took a look at his first half of the season schedule after drafting him on one place and just dropped him. Not worth holding him through his bye week, even though he's got that sweet playoff schedule. I'd look to pick him back up week 6 or 7 if I looked like a lock for playoffs and didn't have a better QB already.

You don't need two QBs in an 8-team league. Ride with Eli, the Saints just lost their only good CB.

Charles' most likely outcome is a timeshare unless Ware's play falls off a cliff or he gets injured himself. It's not buying low when you give away an RB2/flex and a WR2 for him, you're giving up too much.

Insta-accept. Shitcan Turbin to make a spot for Wheaton. Zach Miller is likely worse than any player on your roster so I'd simply leave him out completely.

Can anyone tell me about the BUF-BAL game? Tyrod's five-point performance and the news about Watkins' foot makes me want to drop Tyrod but I am in a 12-team league with several teams holding multiple QBs. I'd likely be grabbing Alex Smith or Flacco...

It's me I'm the guy who picked AP in the first round and am now freaking out.

One of the other guys in the league would be open to trading for him though, so I'm turning to the SAS hivemind to see if anything jumps out at you all as a good target. My team, his team.

EDIT: 12-team, non-PPR.

AP always skips the preseason and looks like trash in week one (unless he breaks a long run to pad his stats).

I'm heading towards either a victory or a close loss for week 1. I'm looking to the waiver wire to firm up my bench with some unpicked prospects, and was thinking about two trades come Wednesday:



Specifically I have my eye on the following:

Drop > Add,
Kamar Aiken (it looks like he's going to be getting part time play, and he wasn't too impressive against the Bills) > Will Fuller (seems like a good option opposite Deandre)
Bilal Powell (mostly picked him up because he was the next highest player on my list come round 14) > Tyrell Williams (replacing Allen, and with Rivers throwing to him he'll at least get action)

Any thoughts on those trades, and any other good options who might be undrafted, and any chaff I can safely cut on my bench?

I own Spencer Ware (grabbed him off the wire last week when it was confirmed Charles wouldn't play), and in light of him blowing up, I'd like to trade him to the Charles owner who lost this week. Is asking for his Mike Evans, who he is currently starting in his flex, too much to ask for? PPR. The only other players he has that could be snagged are Jeremy Langford and Emmanuel Sanders (he also has Demarco Murray, but even I can tell that's not happening).

I am terrible at evaluating trades.
