    he's had some pretty good seasons back in his cinci days but CP started this well last year with Ariz as well so I don't think its some fluke. It's just unfortunate that injuries had to take him out.

    Pre-ACL he was distantly behind Peyton/Brady in the fantasy world but for sure a top 10 performer. He hasn't really been the same since and he has even admitted he has flashbacks to getting his knee shredded again.

    Much like Kurt Warner, he's found the right rehabilitation system in AZ. If he can stay healthy, he'll be productive.

    Bruce Arians runs a vertical offense and the Cards have 3 great receiving weapons.

    That division isn't as brutal through the air as it used to be, either.

    If Palmer stays on the field, he's almost assuredly top 10.

    Trade partner said they'd throw in Alfred Morris.

    So...

    Foster for Palmer/Morris.

    So it's Taylor + Foster or Palmer + steaming RBs for the rest of my season.

    Ugh. Stupid Romo.

    What do you guys think of Torrey Smith? He is a FA in my league as the previous owner just dropped him. Do you think he will keep up his targets?

    Also: I'd like to find a way to acquire Mike Evans, Forsett, and Lamar Miller due to their low value right now. Do you think its worth trading Frank Gore, Pierre Garcon, and maybe Shane Vareen for these dudes? Do you think that will be enough to get them?

    I did a little napkin math.

    Over the next 11 games Tyrod Taylor will face, on average, 2014s 17th ranked pass defense.

    Over those same 11 games, Carson Palmer will face the 12th ranked pass defense.

    Small tip in favor of Palmer who has 6 road games while Taylor has 7, though Taylor has softer matchups for the playoff weeks.

    A home game in Buffalo in December isn't exactly promising for a QB.

    Not making this decision any easier, that's for certain.

    Worst part is, if my QBs are Romo/Taylor, they play each other @ Buffalo on championship week.... greeeeeeeeeeat.

    Palmer will be hosting Green Bay that week in toasty AZ.

    The week before they'll be freezing their balls off in Washington and Philly, respectively.

    read it looks like TY will play tonight...but might just be a decoy? do i stick with TY or play moncrief?

    not sure i can win...lacy going out early last night killed me. down like 15 points heading into tonight with just hilton/moncrief left

    but the more points the better in the long run...

    BBS who you got?

    I'm in the exact same situation. Picked up Moncrief when Hilton went down. I'm leaning on going with Moncrief since Revis would guard Hilton and not sure how effective Hilton would be at less than 100% Either way, my opponent is 12 points behind and he has Andrew Johnson playing. So I win as long as JOhnson doesn't have a huge night.

    Any news on Lacy? I jumped on Starks the minute Lacy went down. Waivers haven't cleared yet so I can still drop starks if Lacy is good to go.

    I think it's only a minor sprain and his X-rays were negative. Supposedly he should be ready by next game.

    Denver has been the #1 defense in fantasy thus far. They will be top 5 this season.

    That and the Dolphins are due for a Suh like incident. I'm waiting on what he will do this season. Stomp on more people or start poking eyes? Who knows?

    Pick one:
    1. Trade Edelman for Ingram
    2. Trade Edelman for Foster
    3. Keep Edelman

    My current RBs are Murray, Hyde, and Bernard. WRs are Demariyus Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, and Decker.

    Questions needing feedback

    1. Is Foster worth Brandon Marshall?
    2. What can we expect from Foster when he gets back?
    3. Would you trade Matt Ryan for Lamar Miller? (I have Carson Palmer as a back up)

    I'd keep Edelman dude. Him and Gronk are so consistent with a Tom Brady who just might be THE BEST player in the league this year. Brady has something to prove so you want to keep his #1 receiver.

    It's about consistency. I think Edelman is a guaranteed 15 point player in PPR.

    Receive Latavius + give up B. Marshall was MNF trade offered to me (I really want a better RB#2)

    1/2 point PPR. I needed a RB#2 real bad since CJ Anderson is off to rough rough start.

    This is my very 1st trade offer and got bite real quick so debating on waiting day to see if better deal out theree.

    Latavius sounds decent tho since have 5 nice receivers (Odell, Fitz, B. Marshall, Martavis, Davante) and my RB's are crap! Ok to press accept?
