    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 :cool:

    Both good options. I'd go with Tate for this matchup.

    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.

    Do it. Jeffery and Sanu are replaceable. Julio is on another tier.

    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?

    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.

    I wouldn't, both of those guys have a chance to lay eggs.
