I think the trade was fairly even. I'm assuming owner A needed a QB, and was willing to give up two mid-level starting RBs to get one. McFadden is nursing an injury and even when he returns he will likely split carries with Michael Bush.
lol. man, i would HATE to play in your league. apparently being good at FFB is against the rules to you?
I never veto trades. I've had some that really tick me off, earlier this season after the trade of Moss to Minnesota was announced somebody traded Brett Favre for Kevin Walter. I didn't like it but I didn't veto it either.
Nope. Forsett and Ward are both taken. The only running back worth picking up this week on waivers in my league is Chris Ivory but I am 3rd on waivers so he may be gone. I'll probably go with the Torain-Marshall/Jones-Drew-Owens deal I was initially offered if no other decent offer is listed before tomorrow night.
I would rather trade Bradshaw for Marshall. If you can work out a package for AJ I would try to do that, but Marshall is still a good option since he is proven and will produce something every week.
I wouldn't veto it. The only proven player is Big Ben. McFadden has had a few good games, but throughout his career struggled with injuries. Torrain & Moreno are both starting RBs, but neither is a top level back. Very reasonable trade.
I'm still trying to figure out how you got so stacked in a 10 team PPR league.... I would LOVE to be a part of your league if the draft is that lopsided.
Oh, didn't realize you'd be getting Torain back. That makes it a little better, and being a frustrated MJD owner myself I can see why you'd want to do that deal. Torain may not exactly be an upgrade over MJD but he's going to be productive all year as long as he stays healthy.
Speculation post: I need a week 8 fill-in at WR with Djax injured. Options: Pierre Garcon (vs Hou) Louis Murphy (vs Sea) Dwayne Bowe (vs Buf) Danny Amendola (vs Car) All great match-ups... I need to be awake Monday at 12AM to snag Garcon the MOMENT new pickups are allowed after week 7... if I don't get him, who would you take?
Out of those guys I would take Bowe and then Amendola. Bowe is their number 1 receiver and he is going against a horrible Buffalo team and should be able to capitalize.
Need some help in some battles on my team. Big Ben vs Orton Lloyd, Boldin, Nicks - Need to start 2 of the 3 and they all have good matchups
You sure about that bro? Buffalo is 10th against the pass, Carolina is 5th. (granted its because most teams just run all over them, but that still limits passing attempts) Texans and Seahawks are 32nd and 31st... respectively.
I just think their team stinks and he's the only guy that can really get the ball. I like Garcon against Texans cause they stink so bad too but he hasn't been get as many touches I guess and I have a feeling the Texans come out and play harder. Collie is also looking to be a better target for Manning. I don't buy too much into the rankings of defense as much anymore because I have been kicked in the ass this year trying to base my team around that. The only team that really scares me to have a matchup against is Pittsburgh. The rest of the teams this year have been whatever to me. Maybe an exception is Denver and Champ Bailey covering the number 1 receiver but the rest has been blah.
I ranked them with future points to be accumulated in mind. That's why I ranked them the way I did. If history has shown anything I doubt MJD continues to struggle the way he has. All he needs is a typical 100+ yards rushing and 2 score game which MJD is fully capable of doing in order to be right back in the fold of things points wise. And I doubt Bradshaw continues to average close to 100+ Yards per game. If anything Bradshaw is the prototypical sell high candidate. I could be wrong and he could have a career year but I wouldn't bet on it.
Ok, need some trade advice. Guy in my league needs TE help since Clark could possibly be out for the season. I need RB help... MJD is not cutting it. I offered him Witten since I also have Keller. Note: We do not have flex spots.. 2 WR and 1 TE every week. His RBs are AP, McFadden, Karim, and Stewart. I asked about AP, and he said he would want MJD along with Witten. Also he wants an injury condition that if any player (on either side) is injured by our league trade deadline with something that will keep them out longer than last fantasy game, we will trade back. My team: Cutler, Orton, MJD, Ivory, Hightower, Bowe, DJax, Manningham, Santana Moss, Keller, Witten Honestly, Ive just been extremely disappointed with MJD and I want more consistent production that spot. Keller looks to have a solid year so Witten IMO is expendable. Thoughts?
Dallas Clark may be out for the year, pending additional evaluations. Collie/Garcon should be 100% owned at this point. The Colts have too many backup TE's -- I need them to designate the starter ASAP!
