Think it's insulting to offer John Brown for Doug Baldwin?

Not really. It’s selling high and buying low, in fantasy form. Baldwin’s RoS outlook has so many red flags already.

I’m 4 points down in my big money league, have my flex spot to play and my opponent has no one left.

Do I got with Isaiah Crowell or Marvin Jones? Not sure who is the more sure thing in .5ppr. My gut says Jones, but my Jets coworkers is pitching Crowell hard.

As a Browns fan I will tell you this: Crowell is a perfectly fine power back if you expect him to do only that. He wont wow you. If you think the game goes in a way that suits a RB with that set of skills go for it.

Marvin Jones is a boom or bust guy.

I'd go Marvin personally.

Last year, Marvin Jones got 4 or more points in 14 of 16 games.

Last year, Isaiah Crowell got 4 or more points in 12 of 16 games.

Those Crowell numbers are also when he was the lead back. He might be splitting with Powell.

Do with that information what you will.

After a decade of the patriots going running back by huge committee, any fantasy player who tries to guess which one's going to get reliable fantasy points week to week is an idiot.

I even stashed Dion Lewis against my own better judgement last year because I guessed he would be the lead since Bill likes him so much, got frustrated after a few games and dumped him, next game was his big breakout.

I would use Jones. I believe the Jets don't have much of a secondary.

"We talk every year about how unpredictable the Patriots can be with running backs. 2017 was no different. Mike Gillislee had 33 carries and scored four touchdowns in the team's first two games. He scored approximately four Fantasy points the rest of the season. Dion Lewis carried the load in the second half of the season, but now he's a Tennessee Titan. "

My RB situation is terrible, likely because I drank too much during the draft and don’t actually know a whole lot about football. I’ve got #1 waiver priority, is it worth picking up Phillip Lindsay right away?

I’ve currently got:

J. Williams
M. Lynch
A. Peterson

In a 12-team 0.5PPR league.

I’d probably drop Eric Ebron or Chris Godwin. James White and Austin Ekeler are still out there too, after that there isn’t much appealing.

I told my wife to drop the Lions to pick up a flyer like Doug Martin. She already won this week so having a potential starter made more sense.

They currently have 19 points.

I've moved Wentz to my IR spot. I currently have Roethlisberger at QB even though he had a sad performance week 1 and he will be at home. Unsure if I should stick with Ben or stream a QB next week? Keenum? What do you think?

Not in the form of an outright request. I’d try to break the ice with a text or email. There’s something impersonal about an unexpected trade offer that when it’s also a lowball, can be insulting.

Baldwin is out for 4-6 weeks meaning probably out until after their week 7 bye.

I wouldn’t even trade for him in redraft until next week (if at all).

Yeah I wouldn’t either. He’s damaged goods. If you have the spare IR slot, sure, but having that deadweight through a chunk of the season isn’t all that appetizing.

Should I just drop Baldwin? I've already got Bell taking up a bench spot and no IR slot

Yahoo standard scoring 1 QB 2 WR 1 RB 1TE 2 FLX. Current team:

Cousins
Allen Robinson
Demaryius Thomas
Jordan Howard
Jack Doyle
James Conner
Jamaal Williams

Bench:
Bell
Baldwin
Keelan Cole
Peyton Barber
Geronimo Allison

Edit: My league never does trades

I dropped DeSean Jackson before this game. Should I pick him back up? Bucs have a surprisingly good line and skill positions. As long as the QB is consistent good things should happen.

What RBs to drop and pickup?
Yahoo 0.5 PPR 12 man league 2 rb 2 wr 1flex 1wr/te.

My RB situation is a bit thin because I grabbed Bell.

D. Johnson
L. Bell
G. Bernard
D. Freeman
N. Chubb
J. White
J. Samuels

Should I drop one of them to pick up Denver's Lindsay, Charger's Ekeler or Jacksonville's Yeldon?

I would not have sat Conner for Drake. I don't understand people who did.

Looks like Marshawn Lynch should be a sell high for anyone who missed the second half.

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
My high school league has wacky rear end scoring settings and about once a year someone hits 400 points.

I got 405 today and I had Manny Sanders, Dion Lewis, Geronimo and Beast Mode on my bench :getin:

Had a good week, won in both my regular and dynasty league. Streamed Flacco in regular, and will probably keep him due to lack of waiver options (Fitz, Tyrod, Tannehill, Bortles).

Should I drop one of:

Goodwin
Robby Anderson
John Ross
John Brown

for Geronimo Allison? He had 8 targets so that looks kinda promising.

I dropped Watkins for him because he seems to have earned Rodgers' trust and GB's receiver depth is not good

Anderson is the one you should drop if you decide to add him IMO

After losing Baldwin, I am very tempted to drop Crowder for one of Marshall, Lockett, Enunwa, Allison, or Gallady. Is there any reason to hold on to Crowder who looked like a total afterthought in the Washington offense? My other WR's are Baldwin, Adams, Hilton, and Cole.

Another FF season, another Week 1 where I have the 2nd highest points and played against the highest scoring team

On the bright side, I crushed my opponent in my second league, almost doubling the points of everyone else
