Last night, I sent a trade offer for my Melvin Gordon, Davante Adams, and Mark Ingram for LeVeon Bell. (I have Jordy, Adams, and Cobb then I also have Tevin Coleman and Ingram that would be my choice for Flex)

It got accepted 30 minutes ago.

I forgot to cancel that one...but I'm still getting Bell, I guess.

Man, that was an overpay

Adams wasn't gonna crack my starting lineup with Jordy, Hogan, and Fitzgerald along with Cobb. Ingram is kind of a possible hit or miss stash. Bell > Melvin

Yeah it's been atrocious, especially with the first week giving me so much hope. Unfortunately he clearly has no trust with the backup QB, has likely lost it with Carr, and the rest of the team's lovely problems won't make it much better. The problem was that, in the area where Cooper was being drafted, everyone had question marks.

I feel for all you OBJ owners. May you find solace in the Chicago WR corps.

My Charles Clay was injured as well so I've been looking at TE's and see Dickson on the FA list. Looking at his game logs suggests he's not likely to reproduce similar numbers but maybe his floor gets bumped a little? If anything Cam is playing better so that helps, and after today perhaps trusts he Dickson a little more? Tight ends suck so nothing matters.

Find someone who values you like Rick Spielman values 7th round picks.



Very happy that I dropped Hunter Henry because he had done gently caress all outside of make one good catch and have one good game.

Also happy that my opponent keeps putting up their god drat best weeks against me.

I have yet to score under 100 (.5 ppr) and it looks like im going 3-2.

That's not a half bad trade offer if you're in PPR and the waiver wire is decimated

Same here. This is the first time I've ever had a team start 5-0. My team is still good, but it was basically untouchable with OBJ.

I am winning by one point, and my opponent is done while I have Diggs left. Do I sit Diggs for Julio, thus locking things down unless there's a stat change, or do I go for the points?

Go for the points. The chance of him going negative is exponentially small, and the more points scored the better for tie breakers. Also, the risk of stat corrections is real.

That trade doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Thomas and Hopkins are comparable players ROS I think.

That's what I can't tell. He is definitely getting more looks than Thomas but wasn't sure if that would be justifiable. I wish he had a better RB so I could try something like Amendola, Sanders, & Ajayai for his RB, but he only has Martin, Gallman, Blount & Cohen rostered.

I'm still trying to move Ajayai and also break up having both Ingram and Thomas on my team.

My gut says to keep Thomas. He's an elite talent and with the bye done that's one more game for him to play.

One thing I am learning is to just bail on consensus rankings and go with my gut. I had Alex Smith in my lineup but dropped him for Eli after think about the matchup and looking at a few rankings from sites like 4for4.

Okay the OBJ owner is freaking out. I might be able to get Fournette off her. I don't really have to worry about insulting her with an offer. If I can swing a Dez/Ingram for Fournette trade, I have to pull the trigger right?

It'd leave me with Manny Sanders, Diggs, Parker, and Martavis Bryant at WR.

Alex Smith is a start every week regardless of schedule. I'm shocked 4for4 had Eli over him. His QB rankings are typically pretty solid.

I also let rankings shake me - I should have ridden the Watson train with Hopkins instead of the Jameis train with Evans.

A rookie QB scoring 8 TDs and 1 rush TDs in 2 consecutive games has never happened before in NFL history. It was OK to roll with someone else.

Instead of just throwing things out on here I figure this might be a better way to go about it.

My goal is to move Ajayi and/or split up Ingram & Thomas (obviously keeping Thomas).

Current roster:
QB: Wilson
RB: Bell, Ajayi, Ingram, Coleman, Collins, McGuire
WR: Thomas, Sanders, Amendola, Doctson, R. Matthews, T. Williams (LAC)
TE: Graham
D/ST: Streaming
K: Streaming

I'd obviously like to somehow get a solid RB2 or WR2 out of a trade but not sure who my targets are really.

Any thoughts or suggestions as to who I could package/what I should be going after is highly appreciated.

QBs facing NE were performing at Brady-esque levels. Swapping in Watson for Winston was only a good idea in hindsight. Shocker, I know, but Watson isn't going to continue throwing a touchdown every third completed pass. If you're talking Hopkins vs Evans, Hopkins turned 4 catches into 3 touchdowns, don't chase that kinda flukey hindsight either.
