might wanna pick up Washington's defense if they're out there...they play a home game versus the Rams next week

10/6/2008 10:54:37 PM

^^no kidding. it's the Vikings and their completely vanilla offense. how about getting him the ball in the open field a little bit? their play calling is atrocious

"trade advice: would you give up TO to get LT? Turner? Looking back, 5 RBs were better than TO in 2007, and 8 were better in 2006 (when TO had all those fucking drops)."

I would say LT needs to be a top 6 RB for this to be worth it. Not sure if he will get there

10/6/2008 11:07:51 PM

Man fuck Peterson. Gah. I was down by 8 points coming in with Lance Moore and AP to go. Other guy had Meachem.

I lost by 1.2.

10/7/2008 12:37:35 AM

I had Meachum and the Vikes D....opponent had Bush and Moore.

WTF 2 punt returns did me in.

10/7/2008 12:51:04 AM

I had Meachum and Shiancoe and needed 11 points to win.

I got 11 exactly

10/7/2008 3:03:26 AM

AP and Lance Moore really fucked me last night.

10/7/2008 7:12:43 AM

Ha Shianco you fucking homo

had to catch that halfback pass to score

but still managed only 16 yards to allow me to escape by the slimmest of margins

Finishing the week with the 3rd lowest point total out of 12 teams and still getting the win for the win

10/7/2008 8:48:41 AM

ocho choko vs NYJ
or
bernard berrian vs DET

10/7/2008 10:26:13 AM

I have standing rule this season that if I have a starting offensive player matched up against Detroit, they get the start for me regardless of any other circumstances.

10/7/2008 10:37:45 AM

I had Minnesota D in one league and Devery Henderson in another

Thanks to them, I was 4-0 in fantasy this week.

10/7/2008 11:23:25 AM

I'm #2 on the waiver order this week.

Anybody worth picking up?


I'm waiting for a big-name RB to go down. Buckhalter is gone and I already have Sproles.

10/7/2008 11:50:49 AM

any thoughts on playing colston this week if he comes back? my WR's have been killing me all season without him, is he worth the risk?

10/7/2008 12:15:50 PM

I hope he can go....I have him on 2 teams. He is doubtful right now so it's not looking good.

10/7/2008 12:18:53 PM

a guy in my league lost on that last brees interception by .14

hilarious

He's not playing this weekend. he's targeting week 8 as the return date. Given the Saints bye week in week 9, it wouldnt surprise me at all if they held him out until week 10.

Hightower of the Cardinals is a solid goal line start, scores a lot

Ryan Grant vs. Seattle

or

DeAngelo Williams vs. Tampa Bay

?

doubt i'll get more than 5 either way.

10/7/2008 1:52:15 PM

Grant - I think he will continue his improvement and get another 80 yards, but with a score.

10/7/2008 1:58:44 PM

Someone dropped Driver on Saturday, I have decent waiver position and am considering trying to get him... But the only person I really have who I could drop is Isaac Bruce, who would you take?

10/7/2008 2:33:19 PM

In a 12 teamer, should I drop Hasselbeck where I already have Big Ben and JOTS ?

Makes little sense to carry three QB's, and he's been playing like dogshit so far

10/7/2008 2:39:59 PM

^didn't hasselbeck get banged up last game?

10/7/2008 2:42:16 PM

yeah but he's constantly banged up

back, knee, hip

sooner or later he's gonna start complaining that his fingers hurt

10/7/2008 2:44:45 PM

driver hasnt done much for me all season, finally had a good game last week but rodgers may have some problems with his separated shoulder.

10/7/2008 2:46:42 PM

Yeah I know he hasn't been that productive thus far, but I don't want to let him get snatched up by someone else. We have really short benches in the league so there isn't too much I can do to grab him.

10/7/2008 2:56:14 PM

r. grant vs SEA
or
j. stewart vs TB
or
j. fargas vs NO

10/7/2008 4:09:20 PM

Stokley might be a pickup if royal is out.


I don't see much on the wire this week.

10/7/2008 7:09:54 PM

Calvin Johnson at Min or Cotchery vs Cincy?

i keep waiting for cotchery to have "that" game that makes me believe in him and Favre, but those kind of games seem to keep going to coles

10/7/2008 7:13:57 PM

cotch had 2 TDs the last game he played. Coles had 3 though

10/7/2008 7:14:36 PM

go with cotch

im gonna be a the game so im playing him in my league just so i have something to cheer for, well him and favre

10/7/2008 7:15:51 PM

yeah - just haven't seen consistency from either of them...they're my 3rd receiver behind TJH and Santana Moss, so I'm not expecting big things

also, is Brandon Jacobs going to have weeks more like this one or more like his first few? I benched him for slaton, and while slaton scored 3 less pts in my league, the Giants platooning is driving me nuts to the point I'm ready to go slaton full time over Jacobs

10/7/2008 7:17:57 PM

Whats the name of the FF webpage that evaluates players against the opposing defense and shows it bar charts for all the weeks? Basically looks at strength of schedule for that specific player agaisnt upcoming teams...

Long shot, I know....

10/7/2008 7:28:11 PM

Grant...no question about it.

the great Adrian Peterson couldn't run against the Saints, so what makes us think Fargas can?

and we all saw what DeAngelo did this past week...and what Stewart DIDN'T do

10/7/2008 8:31:43 PM

^plus TB has a better run D than seattle


current backup qb is derek anderson, worth keeping him in case he remembers how to play football or should i drop him for a better backup option? 2 best available qbs in my league are schaub, orton, & cassel

10/7/2008 8:33:44 PM

keep him, altho orton does look tasty

10/8/2008 1:34:07 AM

Colston might be back week 7, but probably 8, woo

i just traded braylon edwards and chris johnson for Housh

I was stacked at RB and had too many Browns players (Winslow at TE):

Jamal Lewis
LT
Forte
Johnathon Stewart
Chris Johnson

10/8/2008 9:14:45 AM

I'm of the opinion that Maroney and Sammy Morris can suck it.

So Pick 1 RB: (AP is my No. 1)

Stewart vs. TB
Chris Perry vs. NYJ

Pick 3 WR:

Coles vs. Cincy
Randel El vs. St. Louis
Lance Moore vs. Oakland
Deion Branch vs. GB

I've got Coles, Randel El and Moore penciled in right now. Thoughts?

10/8/2008 9:36:09 AM

Branch is more than likely out so...... the other 3 dudes

and I like Stewart over Perry, even with TB's solid defense

I think the Jets will go up big and force Cincy to throw

plus Benson will steal some of Perry's carries

10/8/2008 10:07:32 AM

yeah, you'd probably be better off going to the waiver wire to find better WR/RB options

10/8/2008 10:10:32 AM

That's pretty much what I'm leaning. I picked up Branch before Sunday's game. I didn't play him, but he scored 6 points. Not bad for his first game back. And still better than lame-ass Lance Moore on Monday!



^ Aren't any better options. 12 team league, so WR talent is spread really thin.

[Edited on October 8, 2008 at 10:11 AM. Reason : ]

10/8/2008 10:10:51 AM

My projected is 136-95... I better freaking win.

10/8/2008 11:23:40 AM

Ronnie Brown, legitimate top 10 RB or just a product of this new package that teams are going to eventually figure out?

10/8/2008 12:16:23 PM

I'm still up in the air about him. If you can get a good deal then I think hes a risk worth taking, he was dominating last season before getting injured. I think he will continue to be a solid rb the rest of the year, but who knows if right now he isnt fully recovered from his injury and its just the formation that is abusing people.

10/8/2008 12:28:26 PM

^I tend to agree. My goal in fantasy is to buy low & sell high. Can't see brown's stock getting much higher. On the other hand, it depends on what your team needs & if you can fill those needs via the trade (obviously )

10/8/2008 12:53:01 PM

If you don't already have brown from the draft or a smart trade, then you will probably have to give up too much to get him with all the hype around him now. I do think he is a solid top 10 and I would probably take him over LT and westbrook given their recent injury struggles.

10/8/2008 1:07:10 PM

Ronnie Brown was THE BEST fantasy W/R last year before he got hurt...he's been a monster the last 2 seasons, WHEN HEALTHY...the only thing that could prevent Brown from doing well is injury, or a retarded coach giving Ricky Williams 25 carries a game
