There’s a trade in one of my public paid leagues of Aaron Jones and Diontae Johnson for Antonio Brown and Fournette. To the guy in second place who’s about to overtake me for first.

Lol. As a Swift owner, he's getting a majority of his points via garbage-time TDs. It makes me nervous and I would absolutely trade that for more stability in general with Ekler. Even if he has weeks like this one where he busts.

(I also traded Ekler in another league after week 2 for a WR and have regretted it since.)
Yeah I've been debating moving one of CMC, Gibson (who has keeper value next year), Swift, or Jacobs since I can only play 3 of them in a week anyway. By upgrading Swift to Ekeler I feel confident moving Jacobs since I have Chuba backing up CMC. I need to get a better WR - I've been trotting out ARob, Diontae, Mooney, Tim Patrick (whose value goes down when Jeudy comes back), Van Jefferson, Kadarius Toney, or Bryan Edwards so I could really use an upgrade.

Good morning!
If Damien Williams returns, he's still the lead back in Chicago over Khalil Herbert, correct? I have Herbert but someone just dropped Williams to waivers, and I'm desperate for a start this week. If it's not one of them I'm gambling that Alex Collins will be able to go on Monday night.

Would you drop Herbert for Collins? 4 man bench with two players on bye gives me no room to maneuver. I don't really want to start either against Tampa but I may have no choice.

I guess the better play is to drop my kicker for Williams and ditch whoever isn't playing for a kicker later this week.

I don't feel comfortable starting either Williams.or Herbert. It's a bad matchup and they split 50-50 the week they both played. I don't understand why people are saying Williams is the clear #1 when he comes back.

So my WRs are bad. REAL bad. My best guys are Evans and Lockett, and the two of them cost me the biggest game of my season. Fortunately, I have a DEEP stable of RBs: Kamara, Henderson, Patterson, Najee, both healthy Bears RBs, and Conner.

My thinking is that I trade one of my stud RBs for a stud WR, but I’m having trouble deciding between the offers presently on the table. Which would you guys take?

In order of what I think is most preferable:
Najee for Tyreek
Henderson for Marquise Brown
Henderson for Lamb, Tim Patrick
Henderson + D Schulz for Emmanuel Sanders, Mike Williams

I’d really like to have Tyreek, but Najee gets some of the highest volume of ball touches… that would be real tough to let go. However, watching him play it feels like every one of his yards and TDs are hard earned and good defenses will stifle him. It’s a tough call…

Two weeks ago I was desperate for a RB and sent these trades:
Ekeler for my Kupp
Chubb for my Hopkins
Najee for my Hopkins
In the end I got Henderson for Hopkins and it seems to have worked out so far even if I overpaid a bit.

Yeah, but it's hardly like you're locking in a RB whose going to dominate touches. Also Herbert was pretty effective and who knows what that split will be moving forward.

It's that or hope Alex Collins can go against New Orleans Monday. If he can't go his backup is going to be impossible to figure out between Homer, Dallas and Penny.

Idk I think Z Wilson might get more points than Geno.

Expect Seattle to skew even more run heavy over the next couple weeks.

With that said, Seattle is tailoring the offense to be a bunch of quick short passes that make for relatively easy completion numbers.

12-team, Yahoo 0.5 PPR, 6pt Pass TD, 0.2pt Completions, 3 IDP, 9BN, 5IR:
QB - Josh Allen, Derek Carr
RB - Joe Mixon, Kareem Hunt (IR), Darrell Henderson Jr., Melvin Gordon III, Malcolm Brown, Damien Williams (IR), Rashaad Penny (IR), Jaret Patterson
WR - Davante Adams, Robert Woods, Tyler Boyd, Cole Beasley, Laviska Shenault Jr., DeVante Parker, KJ Osborn
TE - Logan Thomas (IR), Tyler Conklin, Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth, Irv Smith Jr. (IR)

Having a pretty okay season, 2-4 with the most points against, less than 50pts behind points leader. Checking to see if there's anyone I should consider trading to get a leg up. Tyler Boyd has been a disappointment so a more reliable WR3 would be nice and could certainly use an upgrade at TE but not sure I have enough depth anywhere to get an upgrade. After Josh Allen's bye week I could see if anyone is interested in Carr, there's a couple teams with QBs that are performing worse than him: Heinicke/Tannehill/Lawrence and Wilson/Goff.

So I really don’t want to have to drop anybody from my bench to cover my idiocy of painting myself into a TE corner (Knox and Schultz on bye, Kittle on IR). Someone dropped Ricky Seals-Jones but another guy wants to offer me Ertz and Singletary for Chase Edmonds.

I have zero interest in Singletary but I want to offer him Edmonds for Ertz and a 2022 pick OR just a straight up 2022 pick and get Ricky off waivers later. Thing is we have this weird offseason bidding system so Edmonds was kept for a certain number of points and I don’t really know where to value him. What round should I ask for him just to get the trade talks going?

If you need a TE probably but having him this season has sucked. So much so that someone in your league decided he wasn’t worth the effort of keeping.

Matt Ryan sucks in the red zone. He couldn't connect with Julio Jones in the end zone either the last few years and this seems like a continuation of the trend.
