Why yes, I will take AFC defensive player of the week TJ Watt to replace Deion, thank you waiver wire.

If only TJ was in a 4-3 defense would he be a legit IDP weekly starter.

Need some advice regarding my team. I feel I have a very strong team with my obvious weak spot being TE. Bench in brackets.

QB - Cousins, (Mahomes)
RB - AjayI, Howard, Conner, (Ekeler), (Mack)
WR - A.Brown, Hilton, (C.Davis), (A.Robinson)
TE - Eifert

I would like to upgrade Eifert and possibly have a more permanent RB solution since Conner won't start for the whole season (or will he?) Also, I hate carrying two QBs and dont know which one to move forward with. I dont see myself ever starting Ekeler and both Davis and Robinson should be good to fill in the flex or for bye weeks. Should i stand pat and ride it out or try upgrading?

I'd trade Mahomes. Maybe package him and Eifert together for a top TE? Or him and Ekeler for a higher upside (low RB2 like Chris Thompson).

Find the guy on your league weakest at quarterback and see if he has a tight end you can use. One of your QBs plus Eifert might be enough to shore up the position.

Another option is using Conner to make a move with the Bell owner. However, I wouldn't give up Conner for anything less than Kelce/Gronk and even then, I'm hesitant.

You want ILB. Watching people blow out their WW budget on TJ Watt makes me smile since he's going to be so boom or bust (and mostly bust) from an IDP standpoint.

James Conner + Eric Ebron for Jordan Reed + Adrian Peterson (this side owns Bell), PPR, who wins this trade?

Lost Olsen and am stashing Wentz. Should I offer Mahomes to the QB-needy Reed/Kittle owner for a TE?

Or is Mahomes the 2018 Deshaun Watson and I should look to move Wentz?

Better but still not sold on Littleton yet. The scheme just doesn't favor him. I hope he proves me wrong but I think he'll be an LB3.

# ? Sep 12, 2018 16:43

DariusLikewise: Oct 4, 2008; You wore that on Halloween?

Littleton's points will probably drop once Mark Barron is back from injury. Ramik Wilson who was the Rams 2nd ILB only played 47% of the snaps in the Raiders game.

Skull Knight: Aug 2, 2013; Sexy bad choices; Lipstick Apathy

Requesting help in another league... 0 PPR format with some interesting settings...

Roster is as follows:

Would it be worth it to drop someone like Sanu to pickup say Jonnu Smith? I honestly can't seem to judge how many RBs / WRs are really needed here, given this format vs. trying to take a flyer on a potential roster changing TE if Jonnu really does fill the shoes / points that Delanie generated.

Teeter: Jul 21, 2005; Hey guys! I'm having a good time, what about you?

.5 PPR trade opinions needed:

My Tevin Coleman + Travis Kelce for his Joe Mixon (and maybe Zuerlein)? He's the Freeman owner.

2 for 1 are hard to pull off successfully but I accidentally won all of my FAAB adds and now I need to trim down 2 players in order to add a kicker and defense before game day. I usually stream TE so I tend to undervalue them but I'd like to work out a fair trade if I can before I have to go drop other players I'm stashing.

I wouldn't 2 for 1 until playoffs. Depth will get you farther.

You're losing a decent bit on that trade. Who are your drop candidates? Coleman + someone not as good as Kelce for Mixon is another option, if you can swing it.

I doubt the Mixon owner would take that. He almost certainly valued Mixon higher than Kelce predraft and he looked like a stud in week 1.

I have some depth, probably too much now that I've panicked on RB and grabbed everyone I could at the expense of my K and DST slot. 2 players have to go regardless so I'm trying to improve my starters before resorting to outright dropping some.

Absolutely, though I'm hoping that Freeman's week 1 injury concerns could scare him in to wanting a handcuff.

My RBs after Kamara are kinda garbo and I'm sour grapes that I didn't get Lindsay right now so I'm gonna say he'll be a bad flex option for the rest of the year. :mad:

WaveLength: Nov 22, 2006; Feel the beat

I am awful at trades but the Brady owner is shopping him and I'm thinking of offering my Deshaun Watson and Jamaal Williams for his Brady and Yeldon. Im an idiot so I cant tell whether this is laughable from his perspective, actually terrible for my team or somewhere in the middle.

My team (0.5 PPR, 2RB 2WR 1 WRT, 10 team league):

code:


QB: Watson
WR: Hilton, Cooks, Funchess, Cobb, Edelman, Hogan
RB: Gordon, Fournette, Mixon, Hyde, J Williams
TE: Kittle

QB waiver is decently deep but Brady would be some nice consistency. Also Yeldon would be nice considering fournette

I offered a guy James Conner for Gronk (he's bell owner) and Conner has been so good I'm actually second guessing this.
