    Need advice on a trade I was offered in a .5 PPR league:

    I receive Martavis Bryant for Ronnie Hillman.

    The league starting lineups are a bit odd (1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 RB/WR, 1 FLEX, 1 TE, 1 D/ST, 1 K).

    I feel like I'm stronger at RB now (DeAngelo Williams (handcuffed him to Bell all season), Chris Ivory, Hillman, LaGarrette Blount, Karlos Williams) than WR (Mike Evans, Jeremy Maclin, Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Johnson, Marques Colston).

    Thanks for the advice everybody!

    Manziel is starting tonight and when he plays Barnidge is like a decoy, Johny Football is all about the long ball and running in circles.. Eifert definitely.

    Offered my Hopkins/Ivory for his D.Thomas/Gurley. Waiting to hear back. Fair trade or nah?

    Lateral move for me but I don't trust Ivory's health and I like D. Thomas playoff schedule.

    I don't think the other guy will bite. Gurley has been a monster and, while good, Ivory hasn't been as consistent. Given how running backs are falling, I don't think anybody would give up Gurley now.

    Thanks!

    One more trade scenario. My Hopkins/K. Wright for his Diggs/West. Fair trade? Any insights will be appreciated! I need consistent running backs badly.

    Doubt that'll get accepted given how good Diggs has been lately and West having 2 solid weeks in a row. But it does seem pretty close. If either one of his 2 stumbles this week, you might have a shot.

    I can't believe I'm asking this but...

    Peyton Manning @ Indy or

    Ryan Fitzpatrick vs Jacksonville?

    I don't know if anybody knows about dynasty leagues, but I just got offered Gronk for Diggs, Gates, Hillman, and Antonio Andrews.


    My other RBs: Miller, Stewart, Gio Bernard
    My other WRs: Dez, ODB, Cooks, Fitz


    It basically kills some of my depth, but makes my starting lineup stacked. Gates is ancient, but it it tough for my to give-up Diggs. Thoughts?

    @mrm32 Fitzpatrick if you're confident that he won't get hurt this weekend. Think Manning is past it.

    @oelman44 seems like you're going to overpay for Gronk. That's a lot of players to give up. But beats me, I'm not 100% sure on how Dynasty works.

    I'm beginning to question if Jeremy Hill is droppable.

    After tonight, it's a valid thought. If he couldn't get back on track against the league's worst run defense, then I'm not sure when/if he will. What a disappointment.

    A.Robinson (vs NYJ/Revis), Langford (vs SD), Lafell (vs Was)

    Revis Island. Pass

    I'd go with Langford, with LaFell in a close second. Keep hearing news the Matt Forte is coming back soon but I dunno what's true or not.

    At this point in the trading game, you should be analyzing your matchups for playoff weeks and basing your decision off that.

    Agreed, I have a similar situation but have to make some tough decisions. I currently have T. Kelce on my bye with no TE currently. Heath Miller is available who I am high on this week. My WR2 situation is dicey though.

    Since Keenan Allen went out, I have R. Cobb @ CAR, A. Robinson @ NYJ, M. Floyd vs. CHI, W. Snead vs. TEN. I need to choose 2 WR's out of them and most likely need to drop at least one of them for a TE (H. Miller) and maybe even a 2nd one in order to pick up an IDP (defensive player).

    I am 4-4 and in 6th place out of 10 and a 20 point underdog currently without a TE and IDP. I am considering dropping Snead and Floyd even though I just picked them up on the waiver wire and rolling with Cobb and Robinson since I am not going to drop either one of them.

    My other option is to go for broke and start Malcolm Floyd and hopes he has a Boom day instead of a bust day. Drop Snead for Heath Miller and roll without an IDP and I hope I get lucky.

    Good advice. I'm very short sighted and I only look at immediate matchups.
