Do not do that trade.

[bantx]

Schaub is my other QB and it's a league where qb scores a lot like average is 40-50 points over 300 yds passing gets you 50 points its weird scoring the commish of this league is in his own little scoring world.

[ImBrotherCain]

I would not dump Julio to upgrade from Shaub to Newton but thats me.

Yeah i was eh on the trade i was trying to do it without julio but he kept offering and when he included fredjackson i was a little interested since he'll only be out for a few weeks

[thetedginnshow]

So my back-up is Schaub and my only legit WR is Wayne. The other guy has Calvin at WR, but no QB or RB. Standard league. Would you do Vick, DMC, Blackmon, and Holmes for Julio, Green, Ridley, and Ponder?

Or, the more conservative Schaub and DMC for Julio and Ridley.

[abaddon41_80]

I wouldn't accept either of those trades. Not a fan of DMC

[BaLLiN]

would you start alex smith vs Detroit or andrew luck vs Minnesota at QB

I think they'll both put up similar numbers, around 250 yards and 2 TD's. If I had to pick I'd take Luck.

Check the injury report. The Lions may be missing three of their starting secondary. If that happens start Smith.

yes, but is detroit going to be able to pass on san fran? If not then san fran is just going to run the ball. Minnesota will be able to score on indy, so the colts will have to pass, and running the ball isnt as easy against the vikings

[Bert Macklin]

So in a non PPR league my WR's are Megatron, Fitz, Cruz, S. Hill, Ogletree, and McCluster. My RB's are CJ Spiller, Reggie Bush, Alfred Morris, and T-Rich.

I'm looking for another "star" RB. Which WR would be the best trade bait? I'm thinking Fitz but idk who would be fair value.

[holt_bruce81]

Would you guys do Eli Manning for Phillip Rivers and Aaron Hernandez?

IMHO.... **** yeah A healthy Hernandez is better than Gronk and Rivers can put up numbers.

What do you do with Fleener and Gresham then? try and trade Fleener to him for Antonio Brown?

[Docta]

Just traded Chris Johnson for Ryan Mathews? Yay or nay? I'll still have CJ for 1 more week though, since it's not official until Tuesday.

@holt: Fleener is more valuable. Try and trade Gresham for Brown.

@Bert: Depends on what you mean by star RB. Quality RBs are harder to find, so I doubt anyone would trade them for Fitz. If you're trading Megatron though, you could end up with a nice return.

If he's dumb enough to do it then don't hold your breath.

How would you feel about having Rivers and Mathews on the same team?

Idk how would you feel if you had Brees and Sproles? Matthews will get his carries and Rivers is still Gunslinger Rivers.

Sell low on CJ and give up Gronk in the process . . . no, thanks.

Fleener. The Colts are not a very talented team and will probably need Luck to have 40+ attempts every week.

Better question, since I have Coby Fleener do I drop Gresham for say a Kendall Hunter?

No reason to hold Gresham right now. He doesn't even have a great matchup when the Colts have their week 4 bye.

If you can get Julio and Ridley for McFadden and your backup QB, you do it. That's a steal.

Luck. I don't really see that Detroit / San Fran game being a high scoring affair.

Fitz + Bush or Trent should be enough to target just about any RB. It's all about which team needs WR and has RB depth.

I did bonus points, but only if your QB gets like 450, you get 25 extra points. Or if your defense blocks a extra point you get 25. Things that rarely happen, I assigned 25 points to. 250 or 200 yards rushing gets you 25.

But your league, i can't explain it, one other league, they give 6 points per passing TD. It messes with the balance of the game.

I really like Hernandez but I'm not sure I would. I'm a bit worried about Rivers b/c of his line. If pressed, I'd take it, I guess.

I'd rather have Mathews, though both have lousy lines at this point. I would not make trades like this on Saturday in a league like that. Now you're locked into a trade and if a player involved gets injured it really sucks.

It just got processed actually. Didn't think the commish would be on today. I'm all about not overreacting to 1 week, but if he put up another stinker, I'd be stuck.

[holt_bruce81]

If I accepted Rivers/hernandez for Eli, who would u release?

Gresham, Titus, DHB, Lafell, Ryan Williams? Or just offer him Gresham too? Fleener is my #2

[Bengalsrz]

Need to start 2 of the following in a .5 PPR:

Eric Decker @ ATL
Ahmad Bradshaw vs TB
Antonio Brown vs NYJ (No Revis)
Andrew Hawkins vs Cle
