A package like that is more likely to get you the upgrade you want. Find the team(s) with needs and work from there.

That's two banged up QBs, though, so be sure to check the wire for a guy like Dalton or try to get a backup QB back in the deal.

You may have to wait a week on trading either of those RBs, though. Ingram banged up and Benson suspended makes people suspicious.

Now AJ green has been the only consistent WR I have, should I try and make a trade for someone more consistent? Desean and Dwayne for someone?

Bowe has been ridiculously consistent. Other than week one, his worst output was a 6 catch 76 yard performance. Dunno how you can complain about someone that has 100 yards or a TD 4/6 games, and one of the games he didn't, his team had three TD's returned for touchdowns and dominated the game start to finish, giving them no reason to throw.

Splat · 10-31-2011, 05:52 PM

Bowe is just a ridiculously underrated player. If he had consistent QB play his numbers would be insane.

rivers is a serious pos this year. fml

Since Tashard Choice got claimed by Washington, I'm more than likely going to pick him up since he'll probably be a starter pretty damn soon.

holt_bruce81 · 11-01-2011, 01:00 AM

4-4 now! after starting out 1-4, and I'm getting Blount and Julio back from injury. Hopefully they don't ease Blount back in there, I want 20+ carries!

Who do I start at flex?

Julio Jones vs Indy
DeMarco Murray vs Seattle

Thinking about goin Julio even if Felix is out again. Julio is finally healthy and was looking like a beast before he got hurt, and the Colts secondary is terrible.

Decided to drop my DST and just pick each week based on match ups.

This week of the FA defenses I like Cowboys (vs Seahawks) or Chiefs (vs Miami). Although the Jets are available and have been a good point scoring D but are away to the Bills.

Who do you suggest?

Or a pissed off Dallas Defense that's playing Tavaris Jackson and the Seahawks.

I used to do that. Unless you have one of the top 3, it often works best. Certain weeks you could be screwed though. At 8-0 I'm already looking towards the playoffs. My friend just picked up Houston this past week because he had NYJ on bye. As soon as he drops them, I'm going to use a waiver claim on them because they play Indy week 16.

ImBrotherCain · 11-01-2011, 09:13 AM

Lost my first game this past week... The byes killed me with Rogers and Forte out... Not to mention my WR (Wallace and Welker) did ****.

Looking to bounce back against an 0-8 opponent.

Honestly this is a tough one. I would go with the Cowboys for this week. Not to mention they have a string of pretty easy games coming up.

At this point I'm picking up players off waiver to keep from other people getting them so is Tashard Choice someone I should let rot on my bench?

Splat · 11-01-2011, 10:10 AM

6-2 baby....

bantx · 11-01-2011, 10:16 AM

I'm playing probably the toughest match right now against brady hopefully he can be contained

I have heath on waiver wire right now

DoughBoy · 11-01-2011, 11:18 AM

Need help-

So my roster looks like this-

Mike Vick
Ahmad Bradshaw
Matt Forte
Dez Bryant
Mike Williams
Rob Gronkoski

BN-
Deangelo Williams
Jackie Battle
Delone Carter
Jabar Gaffney
Jay Cutler

I was wondering- should I try to trade bradshaw and get a WR? I think if I'm smart with my matchups I can get by with Battle, Carter or D-will as my 2nd RB... but should I risk it?

I think I could get Dwayne Bowe or Fitzgerald. Outside shot I could get Greg Jennings or Andre Johnson.

Also, its a ppr league.

Hurricanes25 · 11-01-2011, 12:51 PM

0-3 in my fantasy leagues this week. I would have won 2 of them if Drew Brees had a decent game.

SuperMcGee · 11-01-2011, 12:59 PM

Left Ingram in and I still beat up on him. <3 McCoy. Also won a total shitfest where Stafford and Antonio Brown put up half of my points.

Detroit's bye is going to hurt.

ImBrotherCain · 11-01-2011, 02:42 PM

Would you make this trade:
Beanie Wells, Brandon Marshall
for
Greg Jennings

Who am I getting and what is my bench? Context is everything.

Do I roll with Jackie Battle against Miami this week, or Shonn Greene against Buffalo?

I would say Jackie Battle.

Caddy · 11-01-2011, 08:52 PM

I need a bye week filler at QB.

I have Kolb (STL) but he might not be good to go.

Who is the better option.

Tavaris Jackson (DAL)
or
Carson Palmer (DEN)

If that is your hardest matchup this year you should find yourself winning the championship. Decker will fail with Tebow as the starting QB Fred Davis isn't exactly a fantasy stud. Outside of the propensity of Tom Brady to go absolutely ape **** after a loss you should win this game by double digits.

I can't trust Palmer til I see him succeed in a game I'd take tavaris

Brothgar · 11-02-2011, 12:09 AM

I'm in ESPN's Gridiron Challenge and I'm looking for a cheap QB My options are ...

Tavaris Jackson, Andy Dalton, Carson Palmer, Alex Smith, John Beck, Matt More. If I take Palmer Beck or Moore I can upgrade Steven Jackson to Frank Gore.
