The guy with Schaub & Shady is hurting so he will be the more reasonable deal.
The guy with RB depth is shakin' me down.
The guy with McFadden & Welker has basically already agreed but he's getting a much better deal than me and I have to get Bush or it's a waste b/c it offers me no help at RB. Getting Bush sends me right back to Mr. ShakeDown. lol

Rough sailing . . . bunch of ******* vultures!

To me the Cam for Shady deal is a no-brainer. Even if I go as high as Tolbert & Green I think it's worth it.

The other deals are more skewed but the trade partners are in better position than me. Oddly enough, all the RB1 owners (AP & Gore; McCoy & Freddy; Forte; Rice & MJD) have shot down trade talks when it was Rodgers in the mix, nevermind Cam. The guy w/McCoy has more interest in Cam's keeper value than Rodgers.

I didnt realize how far down AJ was on your depth chart. I'd roll with the cam plus green for shady if you can swing it and try to hold onto tolbert.

That would be ideal. Hopefully I can get Shady's owner to go with Battle instead of Tolbert. Thanks bud!

I basically knocked it out of the park when it came to drafting WRs this year. I kept Vincent Jackson r7 and drafted Nicks r1, Wallace r2, Britt r5, Smith r6 & AJ Green r8. Just filty loaded at WR even after Britt blew out his knee. Too bad every RB on my roster has missed time. :(

so i have the most points in my division currently and am in 4th out of 5 teams. i figured out that if i played any other teams schedule in the league I would be in first place in my division...smh...just needed to vent

I always hate the short schedule head-to-head method. Top scoring teams should be rewarded somehow. I'm not sold on victory points systems - though I've never played in one and it sounds like a smart way to score. I think when I create a new $$$ league next season I'm going with the double header format. At least that way you can mitigate the effect of high scoring teams beating each other.

EDIT: I still like anything better than straight up "points scored" leagues, though. Nothing gets boring faster than a league where the big $$$ winner is locked up in week 12 or 13.

St. Louis is my choice (and I'm starting them in one league)

holt_bruce81 · 11-16-2011, 03:45 AM

Hakeem Nicks and Mike Vick

For

Jabar Gaffney and Adrian Peterson

Brandon Marshall v. BUF
Michael Crabtree v. ARI
Victor Cruz v. PHI

Thanks guys, appreciate the help! :D

DiG · 11-16-2011, 07:05 AM

ive got the same rb situation to decide between. atl is a tough run defense but i feel like i hvae to ride CJ coming off a hot start. ill probably go with forte and cj. at wr id vote for smith and marshall. dallas shut down fred davis in week 3 but cooley was still playing at that point and had 4 for 40 in addition to freds a for 23. TB should have to throw a ton against GB likely playing from behind so I might lean Winslow. Although i think both are poised for similar games. I'd use Cruz in the flex.

in my other league i have to pick 2 between cj4.24, forte, ryan mathews, and tolbert? it's a .5 ppr setup. thoughts?

holt_bruce81 · 11-16-2011, 07:17 AM

Would you trade Blount for Desean Jackson? DeMarco, Starks and SJax are my other three backs. Desean's value has to be pretty low right now.

Edit: just offered Matt Stafford, Legarratte Blount and Julio Jones for Aaron Rodgers and Desean Jackson. Do I have a chance? lol

I don't think at this point I would trade Blount for Jackson. He is going to VY throwing him the ball (most likely). So unless your WR situation is miserable and you plan on starting Jackson no matter what I would say not.

As for the Rodgers trade I personally wouldn't trade Rodgers but I think that can be a fair offer depending on who else he has.

He has Mendenhall and Battle as his two running backs, Mendenhall is on a bye week, so it could be more intriguing for him. But he's beastly at receiver with Steve Smith (car) and Wes Welker. He's kind of weak at flex, starting Robert Meachem right now who also has a bye this week. Idk, if I was him I'd probably never trade away Aaron.

Pick two:

Steven Jackson vs Seattle
DeMarco Murray vs Washington
James Starks vs Tampa Bay
LeGarrette Blount vs Green Bay

Pick two:

AJ Green vs Baltimore
Jeremy Maclin vs Giants
Julio Jones vs Tennessee
Damian Williams vs Atlanta
Earl Bennett vs San Diego

Pick one you didn't choose for my flex position.

And....pick one:

Dallas defense vs Washington
San Francisco defense vs Arizona

yo123 · 11-17-2011, 03:04 AM

You can't go against Jackson and Murray right now, both are just on fire, especially Murray.

It's really hard to say with Green being a GT decision, but Maclin is banged up too and all things equal I'd go with AJ over him, for the second spot I'd got Julio.

Maclin, but watch that inactive list before the game.

Close, but I'll go Dallas just because Washington doesn't have Fitz.

Take the Dallas D... Washington has been terrible and Dallas' Defense has been rolling.

Complex · 11-17-2011, 05:18 PM

Should I trade Murray and Gates for Gronk and Steve Smith?

My TE are Gates and Fred Davis
My WR are Calvin, Roddy,Mike Williams and Colston
My RB are Ahmad,McFadden,Battle, and Matthews.

DiG · 11-17-2011, 05:21 PM

i would hold onto murray honestly. with ahmad and mcfaddens injuries you need murray more than youd need smith.

NotRickJames · 11-17-2011, 05:32 PM

Down in the dumps looking for a replacement for Jimmy Graham this week.

Ben Watson, Visanthe Schiancoe or Scott Chandler?

mcdlaxbonz13 · 11-17-2011, 05:45 PM

does anyone know if Mcgahee has been confirmed to play or would I be better off with starting his backup instead?

SuperMcGee · 11-17-2011, 05:59 PM

My tight end, kicker, and defense all had to have a bye on the same week. Not looking to drop any of them, either [Graham, Kasay, Houston]
I'll figure something out, but it would've been nice to spread these out a bit :/

The_Dude · 11-17-2011, 06:35 PM

last minute help needed:

sanchez vs denver tonight

or

palmer vs vikes

i'd go palmer. vikes rank 30th against the pass, sanchez is inconsistent
