Lions aren't exactly setting the world on fire with Megatron and Bush out either. I'd still rank Brees in the top half, but if you have a better matchup from your backup I'd pull the trigger and sit him this week. Flacco could be in for another big day against the Falcons.
Dez Bryant (me) for Lamar Miller and Justin Forsett? I'm really thin at RB, I have Shady and Jennings. Starting Pierre Thomas and Ronnie Hillman this week.
That's badazz! Julio Jones is a candidate to have the highest scoring output this week. Doooo it! lol, long term as well, I love giving up 2 players for 1 better player so this type of trade is right up my alley. Jones, Nelson, Thomas is dirty
desperate times call for desperate measures I guess. If you could hold off for Dez to have a killer week, then trade for a Leveon Bell or something. Maybe they'll accept that trade now.
lol. bailey is the number 2 scoring kicker. but he is just a kicker. did a Cam Newton for Ronnie Hillman and Branden Oliver trade last night. Ball we be out until Week 9 and even then he hasn't really performed up to the level that I would think his starting job is secure. Current Roster once my trade processes: Russell Wilson, Sea QB Ben Tate, Cle RB Frank Gore, SF RB Fred Jackson, Buf RB Branden Oliver, SD RB Justin Forsett, Bal RB Matt Asiata, Min RB Ronnie Hillman, Den RB Carlos Hyde, SF RB A.J. Green, Cin WR Emmanuel Sanders, Den WR Terrance Williams, Dal WR Mohamed Sanu, Cin WR Jimmy Graham, NO TE Jermaine Gresham, Cin TE Redskins D/ST I have 6 of the top 20 ranked RBs this week according to ESPNs rankings on my roster - Tate #8, Oliver #10, Forsett #14, F. Jackson #15, Gore #18 and Hillman #20. Damn shame I can only start 3.
It could work out, but I think that was a terrible trade. Russell Wilson is great in real life, but in fantasy he's fairly inconsistent (considering their frequent gameplan changes). And Cam Newton over the course of a season has been a fairly high scoring QB, and you gave him up for 2 guys in the wrong end of a time share. Not to mention, your RB situation looks really bad, I would've thought you would've been able to get a higher quality RB than those 2 lottery tickets.
Detroit Defense, shut down Rodgers, so they definitely could do the same with Brees. Brees on the road without J. Graham looks risky, and he hasnt had a great season, against the bucs at home, he had 3 INTs, and needed OT, to get his stats a bit better.
Thanks man I've been a beast at waiver wires this year. Turned Kelvin Benjamin into D. Thomas and packaged Sanu to get Julio Jones. Also got Branden Oliver to fill my bench. Traded away Larry Donnell too
If you feel that strongly about it, would you bench him in favor of Roethlisberger vs HOU or Carr vs ARZ?
Who should i start at my 3 WR spots; Desean Jackson, Mike Wallace, Eddie Royal, Andre Holmes Also Spiller or Antone Smith?
Jackson, Wallace and Royal if he plays, but I think he's still questionable. Same question - Garcon, Wright, Shorts or Quick? I also have Royal, but start Oliver, so probably won't consider him. Leaning towards the first three.
