Someone make a goddamn offer for Chris Johnson. Another big day with over 100 yards rushing and a touchdown and his game isn't over.

LTgiants · 11-13-2012, 11:20 AM

Everyone on my team outside of Peyton is available so if you want them let me know.

LonghornsLegend · 11-13-2012, 11:23 AM

Is there like a projected playoff bracket on the site? I wasn't sure, but figured it'd help me since I don't know how the playoffs ever work. I don't know if just the top 8 people go from whatever division, or if it's 4 and 4.

The lack of offers I've received for all of these players is kinda pathetic. I know damn well some of you have players you MUST trade or you'll lose the right to keep them.

Aaron Rodgers, Chris Johnson, Wes Welker, Marques Colston, Davone Bess, Donald Brown, Shaun Draughn, Scott Chandler, Jared Allen

Interested in Mikael LeShoure?

Chris Johnson is averaging 21.3 points per game over the last five weeks, with no less than 13.7 points in any of those weeks. #10 overall running back this season despite a couple early season clunkers.

I wouldn't trade him if I didn't have to before the deadline. Somebody take him off my hands. I want a running back, ideally.

Except for the fact that Johnson's the #10 RB now, was #11 last year, #7 the year before that, and #1 overall the year before that.

If you didn't want me to truthfully express an assessment of Leshoure, you probably shouldn't have publicly asked of my interest.

WMD · 11-13-2012, 03:09 PM

The players who can't be kept are on the first page in red. Trade deadline is in like 2 weeks..

I don't care what you say about him. Maybe it's true! I'm not debating that.

But Johnson would be considered by many to be fool's gold too.

Fool's gold if you think you're getting another 2,000-yard season, sure. But no one expects that of him. He's one of a handful of true #1 backs that isn't part of a time-share, catches passes for added PPR value, and has been a consistent top 10 running back.

Borat · 11-13-2012, 04:57 PM

CJ should get MAYBE .50 cents on the dollar at this point. Just way too risky.

...and what do you want back? Another Top 10 RB?

Just saying... the lack of attention you're getting on Chris Johnson shouldn't be all that surprising.

I've received three very fair offers for him. Just not for a running back that I'd prefer in return.

Borat, 50 cents on what dollar? It doesn't matter that he hasn't lived up to his average draft spot (late 1st, early 2nd). The perception that he's a risky, unreliable player just doesn't match the facts and the stats. He had a terrible start to this season and a terrible start to last season, but still managed to produce as a top 10 running back. I'm not demanding a top 20 player for him.

Want Michael Turner?

Anyone have a QB? I have nice treats to offer you.

I have Matt Schaub.

LonghornsLegend · 11-14-2012, 03:10 PM

As if I hadn't mixed my keepers up enough this year, maybe now I'm set with Rice, Dez, and Jimmy Graham. Looks like I'll need a point tie breaker to make the playoffs anyway so not liking my chances, but hopefully we can make a run.

edit: It actually looks like there are 2 regular season weeks left so 1 more loss probably seals the deal for me.

comahan · 11-14-2012, 03:35 PM

My team is such a massive underachiever, and is now really banged up, bah.

Carson Palmer, #9 QB
Shady McCoy, #7 RB
Darren Sproles, #6 RB
Percy Harvin, #1 WR, #1 overall scorer
Demaryius Thomas, #9 WR
Owen Daniels, #6 TE

And I'm 5-5. Rough. I won't deal Harvin, as I can keep him for two more years, and I'm really iffy on moving Sproles since I can keep him one more time. I can keep Shady once more as well, but I'm not completely against trading him depending on what I get back. Demaryius and Owen are on the block, perhaps as part of a package deal with Shady for an elite player. Would prefer QB or RB.

LonghornsLegend · 11-14-2012, 04:08 PM

I feel exactly how you do Commie, I actually like your team quite a bit. Sometimes weird stuff like this does happen and it's not much you can do about it. It's just 1 of those leagues where if you can compile a nice team top to bottom you want to try and make the most of it because with how many teams there are, you can keep 3 good players and still end up with a rough looking team next year.

WMD · 11-14-2012, 04:17 PM

Yeah, I thought Communist's team was gonna dominate all year.

I'm up for alll trades. Except for Stafford. Probably won't trade CJ Spiller but I'm open to discussion.

comahan · 11-14-2012, 04:41 PM

Im #1 in Points, but also way ahead of everyone else in Points Against. Unlucky!
