    Now is the time to pounce on Lacy. If you look at last season he started very slowly and he is obviously not 100% healthy right now.

    But I doubt CJ Anderson is going to temp anybody.

    Thanks Moe.

    I'm going to have to package a WR (Wright/DeSean) and CJA to get rid of him. Not sure if it's enough to get Lacy though.

    I'm up 14 with him running Bradford and I have J. Mathews tonight. 6 points for every TD. I had a good lead and thought I would get lucky since they were limiting Gronk who he had...that TD hurt me a bit.

    I really need this win.

    I was offered Chris Ivory and Doug Martin for Arian Foster. Should I do this?

    It's a PPR league. The guy getting Foster has Adrian Peterson and Leveon Bell. Duke Johnson and CJ Anderson are my RB2 options.

    With no other RB options it's not bad to get two RB's for 1. Both Ivory and Martin and being used well in the offenses.

    As much as I love Foster I would probably pull the trigger on this.

    Foster's targets may decrease with Shorts and Washington back healthy. Ivory is a very solid RB1 at this point, and Martin is going to produce in spots.

    I'd say it definitely shores up your RBs but it also limits you potential for big days as neither Ivory or Martin are involved in the passing game.

    I might also be able to flip Dalton+ for Miller/Matthews or McCoy/Landry

    Who is your other QB? If you can move Dalton and get Miller to pair up with Foster that might be nice. Miller is going to be more involved in my opinion. We saw it this week.

    Most of the games actually went pretty much as expected I thought. There were a couple surprises like AZ ****ting the bed against Pittsburgh despite big numbers offensively and Seattle not able to shut down Carolina. The running games were horrific in the Chiefs/Vikings game. Lions/Bears turned into a shoot-out because of poor defenses. Jacksonville produced via the air again, Houston was very productive all around with Hopkins again beasting. Chris Ivory continues to punish teams on the ground while Marshall and Decker keep producing with Fitzpatrick at the helm. Patriots put up their points, but not the unholy 7 TD beating a lot of people thought was coming. The Bengals took advantage of Buffalo's soft middle to exploit the Bills without AJ Green having a big day. Baltimore again gave up a ton of yards through the air.

    Peyton Manning is completely done but the defense keeps bailing him out, and apparently Gary ****ing Barnidge is matchup proof. What a year.

    Loving this week! Racked up another 140+ points with 5/6 players injured on the bench. CJA was the lone injury free player on my bench.

    Hoping for more weeks like this!

    He wasnt doing anything yesterday until that awful defensive play by Cleveland resulted in a 75 yd TD catch and run by E Sanders. And just my luck that the guy who I lost to has both P Manning and E Sanders. That one play added up to about 27 pts in our scoring system.

    Moes, what's the deal with Latavius Murray? Is he benched due to performance, or is the injury really that bad? Trying to see if I should buy somewhat low. Murray owner has weak TEs, and I have Julius Thomas as my backup to Gates.

    I'd probably do this. Ivory will end up being a top 10 RB and Martin seems to be trending upwards.

    I had my first 5-0 week! This shouldn't feel as great as it does.

    This was my worst week by far.

    I had two players score above 20pts and then the rest less than 10pts each...

    Any news on Big Ben's return? A.Brown hasn't produced at all especially last week.

    Owner has now revised the offer which is a bit deeper in level. I would be creating a monster in his team though.

    I should have mentioned this is a keeper league. Foster was drafted in the 7th round.

    My team
    QB: Dalton, Brees
    WR: Hilton, Maclin, J. Brown
    RB: Foster, Duke Johnson, CJ Anderson, Knile Davis, C. West, Ellington
    TE: Gates, Julius Thomas
    Flex: WR/RB

    Going:
    Foster
    Hilton
    Julius Thomas

    Getting:
    Edelman
    Martin
    Ivory
    Eifert

    My new team starters:
    QB: Dalton
    WR: Edelman, Maclin
    RB: Ivory, Martin
    TE: Gates
    Flex: John Brown

    Dude's new team starters:
    QB: Big Ben
    WR: Hilton, AJ Green
    RB: Leveon Bell, Adrian Peterson
    TE: Julius Thomas
    Flex: Arian Foster

    Ivory was a pretty late pick also, so he'd be a good keeper too. What do you guys think?

    What a monster of a team the other owner would have.

    He's definitely not been 100% for whatever reason. They were running the ball with the backup FB against Denver in the 2nd half. Hard to think that you think your backup FB is a better option than Murray if he's healthy.

    The Raiders line is pretty good in pass protection but woeful in run blocking. I would wait and see this week on Murray. If he plays the whole game vs SD that would be a good indication that he was able to recoup during the off week.

    Owner is now offering Green OR Edelman.

    Foster, Hilton, Brees, J. Thomas
    for
    Ivory, Martin, Green/Edelman, Eifert

    I have Dalton as my QB. I could stream Bortles or Hoyer this week. Carr even.
