My entire bench was on a bye, so I had to pick up *shiver* Ty Montgomery and Alfred Blue. This is no one's fault but my own, but I still feel like bitching about it.

Welp, guess my Alfred Blue waiver claim didn't go through :/

I added Cole Beasley. Get on my level, cunts.

Also someone actually drafted Courtland Sutton. I don't know if that was an auto-pick or what but brah-vo

:lol: Michael Thomas is questionable now. I think I may just throw in the towel on this week and accept a loss before any games are played.

Strong stroll for a mangy stray
This past week I was scheduled to lost by like thirty points or something . . . started Brock Osweiler and still it came down to the wire. But then I saw that the last player for my opponent was the Patriots defense against the Bills and I knew I was doomed. Even so if they had actually scored that touchdown instead of thrown that interception at the end I could've had it.

Thank god my normal starting QB is back but now I've lost four in a row I think. Every week I basically turn my bench inside out and try to find some under-the-radar players who I can pick up on waivers.. it's pretty fun honestly

I don't even understand how all that works, I just put in a shitload of waiver claims using a guy I don't want anymore and I know that I'll get one of them. Paying attention to the order and how best to use the claims is too much for my dumb brain

I actually tried to pick up Beasley, just as a lark, but I guess you got him first and I ended up with Josh Adams.

Someone may have drafted Sutton but they dropped him because I had him on my bench for a couple weeks before dropping him for Keke Coutee a FEW DAYS before he was traded. *suicide smiley*

Honestly, #1 is almost more trouble than it's worth. You don't want to "waste" it on a plain pick, so you wait for the mega pickup (like whoever the backup is to Todd Gurley when he gets hurt and out for the year), and you let other people grab the other people and hope there's some decent free agents. When you have the 6-14 waiver, it's just easier to throw a crapload of waiver pickups. At least, that's how I see it. I haven't made a waiver claim at all yet, but I've still got decent free agents.

And I don't get the hard-on for Beasley. Yeah, he might get some short PPR passes, but Cooper is going to get more passes too.

ftr my post was tongue and cheek and I expect to drop Cole after this week. I had to take a flier on the great white wr, there ain't poo poo out there worth a drat.

Reminder...

The trade deadline for all Public and Pro Leagues is 11:59pm PT on November 10th. In order to be processed, all trades need to be proposed and accepted by this date and time. In Private Leagues, the trade deadline can vary so be sure to check out your league settings and contact your commissioner if you have any questions.

Who wants to get some poo poo done?

I'm targeting RB as a position of need. Everyone on my roster is up for grabs except Saquon.

And in looking at the schedule, some very interesting games here down the stretch. This week we have:

#1 vs #3
#2 vs #4

#5, #6 and #7 all play #10, #13 and #14 which is big for their playoff chances.
