    But if you meant trade away Calvin for Luck... Yea, I would do that.

    Maybe both... Who else do you have...?

    I would definitely start Hill though. He's probably the best RB in Cincinnati.

    If I owned both and could only start one this week. I'd go with Hill.

    Im in 12-team league, and my RB2 options are bad, but which one should I start:

    T. West @ BUF
    C. Ivory @MIA
    B. Shankey @HOU

    I picked up L.Murray but he wont play on sunday :(

    Yikes... I hope you're strong at your other positions. With Ivory being a little banged up I think I would grudgingly go with West or _ gulp_ Shankey.

    Jordy Nelson or Tre Mason at my flex...

    Strongly considering benching Jordy after what that New England secondary did to Calvin Johnson. And they've been pretty good at holding down receivers all year for the most part. Too cute...???

    Who are your other WRs? I consider someone else other than Jordy, if you really want to start Tre.

    Dez and OBJ.
    Yea... I'm going to roll with Jordy... Can't bring myself to do it.

    Lol... 10. But my RB situation is a little shaky. Been depending on rookie RB's here lately.

    Brees throws 5 touchdowns and jimmy graham not only got none of that, fool doesn't even get a target. I don't even know who to kneejerk at.

    I'm just completely convinced I have a juggernaut team. Nobody can touch me, especially for a 12 team league.

    last playoff spot is between me and another team. i have 130.3 and he has 92.1. i have to outscore him by 22.6. i have tannehill left and he has charles.

    i also have to win my matchup 130.3 vs 95.7 so far... he has manning and kelce left

    UPDATE: I'm in the playoffs as of now by 3.6 points! crazy season. however... i still have tennehill to play tonight. chances are he won't score -3.6 points, but i'm always scared of what could go wrong will go wrong. i'd sit him, but i'm also paranoid about stat corrections (i know that's extremely unlikely)

    what would you guys do?

    who all is on your team?

    Anyone buying into the Kenny Stills hype?

    Thinking about using my waiver claim (no. 2) on him for the playoffs. Other option is to not make a claim and hope I win this week and can pick up another producing player next week.

    Also, thinking of dropping Ben Tate and Branden Oliver for Knile Davis and Joseph Randle (strictly because if DeMarco or Jamaal goes down those two are in the best spot to produce). Anyone have any thoughts on that?

    1.) I'm buying it, albeit at a low price, but I'd buy it. It really depends on your team, because regardless of how well he's been playing, if you wouldn't have the stones to start him, then he's not really worth the add.

    2.) I wouldn't go that high to get him, but again, this depends on the rest of your WR corp.

    3.) I've made a few moves the past few weeks to get to the point where on my bench it's a couple of decent players, and nothing else but handcuffs. Because at this point that's the only way I'd start anybody over my studs. If you do have Charles and/or Knile Davis, I'd DEFINITELY go this route. at least so you can have a contingency plan.

    League settings are starting: 2 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 FLEX, D, and K.

    QB: Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlisberger, Philip Rivers
    RB: Arian Foster, Alfred Morris, Ryan Mathews, Daniel Herron
    WR: Jordy Nelson, Calvin Johnson, Randall Cobb, T.Y. Hilton, Martavis Bryant
    TE: Julius Thomas, Jason Witten
    D: Lions
    K: Justin Tucker.

    2 empty slots on my bench as I decide who to pickup in waivers.

    I absolutely agree with dropping Tate and Oliver for Davis and Randle. Tate and Oliver are pretty much trash. Oliver is only useful if Mathews is hurt, and even then not that useful given the matchups. Davis is the best handcuff for sure. Randle may have to split with Dunbar if Demarco goes down but you never know.

    Stills is a good option to have, but he's not an elite guy or anything. He's better than Tate or Oliver for sure. He's worth a roster spot at the end of your bench at the very least. You don't want to be eliminated with a high waiver position, or have your opponent pick up Stills and beat you with him.

    yeah exactly what I was thinking. My opponent actually has the No. 1 waiver spot but he never makes any waiver claims so I'm confident Stills will fall to me. He's also starting Brees this weekend so if I plug Stills in there I'll have both Jimmy Graham and Kenny Stills to counterbalance Brees going off for like 5 TDs.

    QB options this week (fantasy rank in parenthesis):

    Tannehill vs Baltimore (29th), Cutler vs Dallas (19th), Roethlisberger @ Cincy (7th), Sanchez vs Seattle (1st)

    Any suggestions on these choices? Choosing the right QB every week is a challenge.

    Manziel is on the waiver wire also but I probably won't get him if I make a claim.
