ahh i see....trade high i guess..ha

9/17/2012 4:11:29 AM

Scored 132 points (highest in the league by a long shot until tonight), and I am still going to lose.

Up 26 pts and opponent has Peyton Manning and Tony Gonzalez left (6 pts for pass TDs).

9/17/2012 5:33:47 AM

Argh.. Week 1, start Bills D. Week 2, start Giants D

9/17/2012 7:59:44 AM

^ lol Week 1 I started the Bills, Week 2 the Raiders...

My defenses have combined for -11 points.

STOP UNDERACHIEVING, TOM BRADY!

Just got offered AJ Green for Darren Sproles straight up in a 0.4 PPR 12 team league. Fair deal?

I have Andre Johnson, Antonio Brown, Maclin, DHB, and Andrew Hawkins as WRs already & have CJ2K, SJax, Ridley, Sproles, and Morris as RBs. We have two flex spots in our league, one for WR/RB & one for WR/TE. I hate to part with Sproles, as I'd like to start him now over CJ2K or SJax, but I'm weary of Maclin's health over these next few weeks and I think AJ Green is easily a top 10 WR. Should I counter with SJax & maybe throw in Hawkins?

I went Week 1 Bills D, then week 2 Cowboys D.

9/17/2012 12:51:49 PM

I'm the kiss of death with fantasy defenses.

Week 1: All 4 leagues started the Bills D. Epic shitting of the bed.
Week 2: All 4 leagues started with Pats D. Not as bad but they still lost to the freaking Cardinals.

So now, what team do I really want to lose week 3? Haha.

9/17/2012 1:19:58 PM

no opinion on my question above??

9/17/2012 1:22:43 PM

@JP, that is a tough one.

I am not sure if Sproles still contributes on special teams, but if he does...i would keep sproles if you get return yards...

9/17/2012 2:12:55 PM

I like Sproles as well and would keep him.

Thoughts on this trade?

Get:
Vernon Davis/Randall Cobb

Give:
Amendola/Owen Daniels

Seems to favor me but I am worried that I am missing something. I have D Thomas/Antonio Brown/Colston/Britt at WR.

9/17/2012 2:28:48 PM

I think it's a fair deal. Sucks to give up Amendola, but he is likely a flex play at best for your team if you start just 2 WRs and a flex. The TE upgrade makes it worth it. However, if you start 3 WRs, I would probably not consider it.

No return yards in this league. I'm still torn on this deal. Should I counter with SJax & a bench WR like DHB or Hawkins?

Yes

9/17/2012 8:48:12 PM

I was up by 40 points with my opponent having Gonzales and White left to play. Now I'm sweating it out and hoping the falcons running game starts dominating.

Edit: damn it. Only up by 3 now with a full quarter left. I'm about to be he highest scoring team in the league after 2 weeks but still 0-2

[Edited on September 17, 2012 at 11:24 PM. Reason : ]

9/17/2012 11:10:25 PM

i lost by .5 points. damn you julio jones! Matt Ryan use him!

my other league, i won by a lot

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 12:31 AM. Reason : ya]

9/18/2012 12:31:12 AM

Phew. Was up 11 points going into last night...I had D. Thomas and opponent had Tamme, Ryan, and Jones. That toe dragged saved me. I won by four points. I've got the highest cumulative total in the league...and that's without playing Cruz this weekend...he blew the fuck up. Rivers is playing solid as well. Feeling good about this year...but worried about my RB's after Foster. Charles is suspect, the Colts don't seem to be using Brown a lot, and Pierre Thomas is always inconsistent. Hopefully Foster stays healthy and the other guys give me decent production.

9/18/2012 9:07:31 AM

so does the M. Turner DUI pave the way for J. Rodgers or J. Snelling?

9/18/2012 9:09:06 AM

4th highest points (out of 16) and I'm 0-2

9/18/2012 10:33:40 AM

Anyone worth a 1st waiver pick this week, or should I pass til week 3?

Could use some help at RB since I have Johnson, Forte, and Charles all under performing.

9/18/2012 10:37:03 AM

Andre Brown will probably start vs. Panthers on Thurs, so he would be a good pickup at least for this week. Not sure about burning #1 waiver priority on him though, guess it depends on who else is available.

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 10:40 AM. Reason : ]

9/18/2012 10:38:47 AM

^^ I guess that I'm going to have to burn mine (#2 spot) too, I don't know if Forte is going to play and all I have left is D. Brown, Leshoure, and Redman, and I have to start 2.

Right now I'm using the #2 waiver on Brown. I think he'll start and plus how great is it to start a State player other than Rivers. I have to get another back because I don't want to start Redman and I'm not sure on Leshoure yet, so who should my backup waiver: P. Thomas, Knowshon, Daryl Richardson (SJax backup), McCluster

9/18/2012 10:56:31 AM

Amendola, M. Bennett, Lafell, A. Brown + David Wilson, Floyd, and Rosario, B. Wells(buy low?) are probably the best players available as of right now.

Biggest needs are at RB, and TE (Witten replacement?)

for WR, I have T. Smith, Lloyd, Jennings, Bowe, and S. Hill (1 week wonder?)
for RB, I have CJ, Forte, Charles, McGahee, and K Smith
QB is P Manning and R. Wilson

9/18/2012 11:03:00 AM

^ Amendola and Floyd are the only one off that list you should pick up unless you want to roll the dice on Brown (drop Hill). They are both number 1 targets on their respective teams. Wells is not a buy low, not now, not ever. Stay away. Rosario will be reduced to an after thought with Gates back next week. Witten saw increased targets and snaps last week and that should continue. Check to see if LeShoure is available since you have Smith.

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 1:00 PM. Reason : forgot about floyd]

9/18/2012 12:59:30 PM

LM question.

Just saw that ESPN gave me bye weeks. I know this is dumb, but would it be bad if I just switched it to no byes in week three...for some reason I have 2 guys with byes every week and i want to make them play each other.

How do you do it anyways? i cant figure it out.

9/18/2012 2:22:44 PM

You should be able to modify the schedule throught the LM tools menu. I'm surprised it gave you byes unless there is an odd number of teams in your league. I've never tried to modify the schedule after the season starts so I'm not for sure if you will be able to fix it, but the LM tools is the only way I know how.

If all else fails, call the hotline, they are usually pretty helpful.

9/18/2012 3:04:03 PM

reeeeeeally hoping I luck out and land A. Brown even though he's my second priority waiver pickup currently

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 3:08 PM. Reason : we'll see]

9/18/2012 3:08:11 PM

I have 14 teams. its weird why i got byes

9/18/2012 3:44:44 PM

Joined a random $20 yahoo league this year that is ran by yahoo. My team is:

QB Tom Brady
QB Robert Griffin III
RB Steven Jackson
RB Darren Sproles
RB Willis McGahee
RB Cedric Benson
WR Julio Jones
WR Brandon LLoyd
WR Miles Austin
WR Sidney Rice
WR Darrius Heyward-Bey
TE Rob Gronkowski
TE Fred Davis

I was offered this trade:

I give:
Robert Griffin III
Miles Austin
Willis McGahee

I get:
Larry Fitzgerald
Adrian Peterson

What are you guy's thoughts on this trade? I am giving up a good amount, but if AP and Fitzgerald get going and stay healthy they are both Top 5 at their position imo. Thoughts?

9/18/2012 4:18:51 PM

Take it

Quality >>> Quantity

9/18/2012 4:20:12 PM

agree with ^. i'd take the trade.

9/18/2012 4:53:40 PM

I give Jamaal Charles, get RG3. I think this is a good deal. AP and Jones drew are my backs. Gonna have to run 3 receivers without charles, though -- antonio brown, demyrius, malcom floyd.


vv Flacco and Russell are QBs

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 10:08 PM. Reason : .]

9/18/2012 10:03:57 PM

^^^^ I would take that as well

^ Who is your QB?

Not really a football question but what the hell. Does anyone know how to post pictures, links, video, etc in the activity feed on NFL.com? It doesn't have a message board which is really pissing me off. Talking trash is half the fun of fantasy. I tried just posting links and then I tried html (<a href= "shittalk.com"></a> ) and it won't even post that. Any ideas?

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 10:07 PM. Reason : .]

9/18/2012 10:04:55 PM

^^with AP and MJD as your other RBs, I'd do that trade too.

[Edited on September 18, 2012 at 10:07 PM. Reason : ^no clue]

9/18/2012 10:07:30 PM

Proposed trade:

I give Chris Johnson and Reggie Wayne

I get Peyton Hillis and Dez Bryant

I kind of want to give CJ one more week but if he sucks again I won't be able to get shit for him. My other RBs and WRs are Doug Martin, Willis McGahee, Hakeem Nicks, Julio Jones,

Any thoughts?

9/19/2012 1:20:07 AM

^I'd give Chris Johnson at least another week if not two. His upside is way, way higher than Hillis and he can take one to the house on any given play. His offense just hasn't started clicking yet. Bryant and Wayne are equals IMO.

Someone wants to trade me Peyton Manning for DeMaryius Thomas. I normally wouldn't do this but I need a decent QB. Peyton, despite his shitty first quarter on Monday, is better than what I have.

My current QBs are Big Ben and RW. I need production there.

My WR core is solid even without DT: Brandon Marshall, Brandon Lloyd, Danny Amendola, Malcolm Floyd, Mike Williams.

9/19/2012 11:15:04 AM

Yeah, I passed on the trade. I have Peyton Manning as my QB so I'm hoping he'll look more like the first week as opposed to the first quarter Monday night.

Are there any decent QBs on the waiver wire? In my 12 team league Carson Palmer and Matt Cassell can be picked up and while they are not great, have put up okay numbers so far...

9/19/2012 11:30:31 AM

Another CJ2k trade...

I give:
Stevan Ridley
Miles Austin

I get:
CJ2k
Eli


Other backs are Murray, Lynch & TRich. I also have Vick, Percy & AJ Green.

9/19/2012 12:02:07 PM

I might do that just to upgrade over Vick. Can you not throw him in the trade instead of Austin? You listed just two WRs, do you have more on your bench?

9/19/2012 12:39:49 PM

miles austin will be hurt in 2 weeks

better off trading him now

9/19/2012 12:46:52 PM

Would any of you drop Michael Turner for Andre Brown? Ppr league, other rbs are Sproles, Mendenhall, and fred jackson.

9/19/2012 1:44:59 PM

no

9/19/2012 1:55:48 PM

drop a crap WR

9/19/2012 2:45:45 PM

Hakeem Nicks is out for tomorrow night's game, FWIW.

Two quick questions:

Eli Manning (@ CAR) or RGIII (vs CIN)? I'm kind of leaning RGIII since this league is -6 for INTs (+ 6 for passing TDs too) and he's got a favorable opponent.

Non-PPR: Jordy Nelson (@ SEA) or Larry Fitzgerald (vs PHI)? Normally Fitz is the obvious choice, but Skelton is out and he's facing PHI.

Thoughts? Thanks.

9/19/2012 4:22:35 PM

I'd go RG3 and Fitz...full week off for skins and cardinals have less weapons than green bay

PPR question:

Lloyd @BAL
Ridley @BAL
Bowe @NO

Pick two

I'm leaning towards the two wideouts
