I'm pretty sure not picking broncos RBs has been a rule for-fucking-ever. You have your own self to blame.

9/9/2008 1:20:32 AM

interesting how yahoo will tempt you with up to the second updates the first two days and then wait as late as possible to update after that in hopes you will buy their premium plan...fuck em'

9/9/2008 1:32:56 AM

yahoo is much better than espn feature- and design-wise, but they nickel and dime the shit out of you to get the good stuff.

9/9/2008 2:17:55 AM

When is Kevin Curtis coming back?

I want to get in on some of that McNabbulous action.

9/9/2008 2:37:42 AM

Alright guys, I need some WR advice.

I've got Torry Holt, Isaac Bruce, Marty Booker, Jerry Porter (inj) & Courtney Taylor.

I've put in waivers to get Ted Ginn Jr & Amani Toomer (best two WRs left in FA). I have 1 open spot from dropping Brady, and I was considering dropping Taylor for Toomer. Thoughts?

9/9/2008 7:28:55 AM

Sjax vs NYG or Forte vs Carolina?

9/9/2008 8:42:50 AM

^same thing for me too.

i'm leaning sjax because carolina's defense did a pretty good job of slowing down LT.

9/9/2008 8:47:59 AM

What are thoughts on Welker, does he have much value left?

Warner @ MIA
Cassel @ NYJ
Cutler @ SD
Delhomme @ CHI

I really don't like Cutler or Delhommes matchups but I don't want to let either of those too back into the free agent pool.

I'm leaning forte, because jackson fucked me last year and after a horrible auto draft, he fucked me last week too.

I need objective analysis, though.

^I'd go warner, for sure.

9/9/2008 9:13:18 AM

if you are gonna bench your first round pick (SJax), you might as well just try to trade him for a premier WR to get something for him

9/9/2008 9:14:47 AM

Couple of things:

Pick 3 WR:

S. Holmes vs. Cleveland
L. Coles vs. NE
D. Mason vs. Houston
A. Randel El vs. New Orleans
M. Jenkins vs. Tampa

Pick 1 TE:

D. Rosario vs. Chicago
O. Daniels vs. Tenn.

Also, what's the deal with NE at running back. I didn't watch their game this weekend, but Maroney gave me 5 points while Sammy Morris racked up 18. WTF? Just an aberration, or is Maroney going to screw me over like I've seen him do to others in the past couple years?

9/9/2008 9:28:46 AM

Eddi Royal is available on waivers...

Should I drop Derrick Mason to pick up Royal?
Mason is a more proven talent and the #1 WR, but the Baltimore passing game stinks. And this league isn't PPR.

9/9/2008 9:41:48 AM

Just remember how much Cutler throws to Brandon Marshall.

9/9/2008 10:14:12 AM

I'm hoping he sees how much of an option Royal is now and uses him. I'm not expecting him to put up those numbers again this season, but I would be content with 50-80 yards and a TD.

9/9/2008 10:38:25 AM

who should i keep on my roster?

forte or brandon jacobs?

9/9/2008 11:36:53 AM

any advice on my last couple spots?

Currently have in:
Anthony Gonzalez
Willis McGahee

I could play:
Mark Clayton
Andre Hall
Chester Taylor
Randle El

Also my TE situation kind of sucks:
Tony Scheffler or
Chris Cooley

9/9/2008 11:48:07 AM

i'd go cooley probably, but not sure if zorn will use him like gibbs did

9/9/2008 11:55:16 AM

^^^ Who else is on your roster?

9/9/2008 12:05:15 PM

^ larry johnson, earnest graham, frank gore

i can only have 4 backs and i have the first waiver pick. I currently have jacobs, but wondering if i should pick up forte instead

[Edited on September 9, 2008 at 12:41 PM. Reason : ]

9/9/2008 12:41:13 PM

is this a 4 team league with 20 roster spots? geez.

9/9/2008 2:28:05 PM

im in a 10 team league with automatic draft and I ended up with michael turner, stephen jackson, and larry johnson as my top three RBs

my WRs suck, though.

9/9/2008 2:30:16 PM

yeah, that's the problem with automatic drafts. My throw away league is 8 teams, and I missed the draft and got a RB in the first 8 rounds!



[Edited on September 9, 2008 at 3:09 PM. Reason : .]

9/9/2008 3:06:26 PM

i drafted 3 RB with my first 5 picks, there are 8 teams (and 6 bench spots, 2 of which can be RB)

the owner that drafted forte dropped him right before the weekend to pickup chester taylor (to backup AP)

[Edited on September 9, 2008 at 3:22 PM. Reason : ]

9/9/2008 3:21:26 PM

Pick Two:

Joseph Addai @ Min
Earnest Graham vs. Atl
Chris Perry vs. Ten
LenDale White @ Cin
Felix Jones vs. Phi

9/9/2008 5:21:39 PM

Okay Panthro and everyone, a little QB help here.

I play in a regular Yahoo league and I have the great "misfortune" of having both Tony Romo and Brett Favre on my team.

My starting line up is:
Tony Romo QB
Reggie Wayne WR 1
Ocho Cinco wWR 2
Torry Holt WR 3
LT RB 1
Thomas Jones RB 2
Todd Heap TE
Jerricho Cotchery W/R

My bench includes Favre, Deuce, Donald Lee TE, and Vincent Jackson WR.

So the question begs, do I sit on Romo and Favre? Or do I go get something big in return for one or the other? Or should I wait until Week 3 and see what's going on in my league? Thanks!

this is my only league this year, so i'm playing to dominate.

9/9/2008 5:54:38 PM

Addai and Graham^^

trade favre for another WR, the ones you have now arent much

trade Favre and Ocho Cinco for another good WR and whatever else you want

people think Chad is a big name guy altho i dont see him doing much this year, and Holt has Bulger and that horrific o line and a knee injury

keep Romo, go get another decent WR such as a Roy Williams or Steve Smith, hell...try for Moss.

but your WR is weak to me altho i love the Wayne and Cotch combo, the only good thing about holding onto Favre is you get double points with him and Cotch, buttttt not if you never play him in favor of Romo

i was offered Braylon Edwards for Thomas Jones and an 8th round pick next year



do I do it?

[Edited on September 9, 2008 at 6:12 PM. Reason : k]

9/9/2008 6:12:16 PM

8th is kinda low, id do 6th maybe 7th


it depends on Cleveland, we havent really seen what they are going to be like

and yet the same can be said for the Jets, they had a good game against a BAD team in Miami.

if this was week 2 id be able to tell you

as of now, i will hesitate to answer

9/9/2008 6:14:16 PM

i'm the one with Thomas Jones and the 8th round pick... but yeah, i'm worried about how Cleveland will work out.

9/9/2008 6:32:54 PM

oh, heck no then haha

id keep it, wait to see if stock rises and then go for it

9/9/2008 6:38:58 PM

my gut right now says thomas jones is a keeper

favre opens up their running game in a way pennington never could

9/9/2008 6:40:41 PM

I'd love to buy low on Braylon like that. I'm not knocking him below Thomas Jones after one game.

9/9/2008 6:42:07 PM

I have the Bears defense and the Seahawks defense. I made the mistake of starting the Seahawks this past week(-1pts) and benching the Bears(+16). This week I'm seeing projections that say start the Seahawks against SF while the Bears are playing Carolina. Who should I start? The projections were wrong last week, will they be wrong again?

9/9/2008 8:02:10 PM

in the interest of my panthers, please start chicago

9/9/2008 8:06:33 PM

Michael Pittman seems interesting as a touchdown stealer waiver pickup

9/10/2008 12:03:23 AM

should i drop courtney taylor for amani toomer?

9/10/2008 7:29:10 AM

WR Marques Colston out for at least a month.

http://www.profootballtalk.com/category/rumor-mill/

9/10/2008 10:07:37 AM

GODDAMNIT.

9/10/2008 10:38:59 AM

just picked up Patten...dropped Ahman Green.

9/10/2008 10:42:00 AM

with Colston out... Does that make Patten more of a must-get?

Or how about this, I just added Courtney Taylor when Burleson went down.

Courtney Taylor or David Patten?

[Edited on September 10, 2008 at 11:24 AM. Reason : 1]

9/10/2008 11:22:15 AM

So who would be the better pick up, Patten or Henderson in replace of Colston.

9/10/2008 11:26:27 AM

I honestly like Henderson because of his big play potential plus he is an every down WR.

Patten didn't even start last game, and Henderson is clearly the #2 WR.

Go with Henderson

9/10/2008 11:32:56 AM

I was thinking about offering a trade to the guy who has Colston

I would give up:

Anquan Boldin
Earnest Graham

I would get:

Brian Westbrook
Kevin Walter

eh? fair?

9/10/2008 11:41:02 AM

What 2 defenses should I play this week?

Min @ Ind
Tampa @ Atl
Cin @ Ten

9/10/2008 12:02:32 PM

double sorry

[Edited on September 10, 2008 at 12:06 PM. Reason : a]

9/10/2008 12:05:51 PM

Ok I need some help here regarding Jones-Drew. So their whole line is injured, awesome. What kind of effect will this have on his game? Will he have a few bad weeks, or is this a season long thing?

Should I start him against Buffalo? I know their defense is good... could MJD perform well at all?

If I shouldn't, I have Kevin Smith (Det. Rookie) and Justin Fargas (Oak) as backups. Who would you recommend in his place?

Seems like theres been lots of injuries this year... (Already lost Burleson and MB3 has bruised ribs).

9/10/2008 2:05:58 PM

Ok, so I didn't get Royal, he was gone on waivers but I did get Sammy Morris for trade bait.

So now I'm left with 2 WR's I'm considering.
Was going to get Henderson but he got scooped up on waivers (before they announced the Colston injury).

So is giving up Derrick Mason worth either of these:
1.) L. Coles (just dropped??)
2.) D. Patton

And the Packers D/ST just got dropped, should I grab them or stick with the Philly D/ST? I think the Philly D/ST faces better offenses overall so I'm a little hesitant about holding onto them, esp. this week. I'm between the Packers and Buffalo but I think the Packers is a better bet given their league isn't exactly full of offensive juggernauts.

9/10/2008 4:03:33 PM

I give up:
LT
Roddy White
Matt Hassleback

I get:
TO
Burress
Rivers

I have Forte, J. Stewart, Jamal Lewis, Chris Johnson and Chris Perry at RB (I'd probably start Forte and Lewis)

Receptions are partial points too so WR are on par with RBs (except LT who has a lot of receptions)

OR

LT
Patten

for

Turner
Wayner
