I give up Roddy White and Victor Cruz for Beanie Wells.

I just can't see giving up two for one, even if their stock is down right now. Deal or no?

What RB do you have?

 

[shocksyde]

Better backup/Future bye fill-in:

Doug Baldwin or Jacoby Jones? I'm thinking Baldwin b/c Andre Johnson will be back soonish.

 

[weirdichi]

What RB do you have?

M. Forte
J. Best
M. Hardesty
C. Benson

A. Johnson
S. Moss
M. Floyd
R. White

I'm thinking about unloading him now before his value drops even further.

See if you can include a RB in the package instead of two WR. Try White + Benson or Best.

Much better option here. Especially if the league is PPR.

 

[weirdichi]

Oops, forgot to mention those are my WR also, pluz Victor Cruz. I kinda wanna keep my runningbacks, except maybe Best, who is too streaky. This is not a PPR league.

HIS WR/RB
----------
J. Jones
V. Jackson
D. Baldwin
H. Nicks

R. Mendenhall
B. Wells
J. Starks
F. Jones

I have a bye week nightmare lineup to deal with this week. My real issues are with my flex spots and who to put in them in a non ppr league.

Should I play Fred Davis or Dustin Keller as my TE? Keller has been awful the last few weeks, but has a fantastic matchup this week. Davis has looked great and should continue to play well now that Cooley is out of the lineup for awhile.

My wideouts have been decimated with injury. I currently have Brandon Marshall, Sidney Rice, and Jacoby Ford in to play this week with Nate Burleson on the bench.

Currently have Tim Tebow as QB as Michael Vick has the week off.

My Running backs are Ryan Matthews, Michael Bush, and Hardesty for the week with Hardesty in one of my flex spots. I'm so unsure about his play that I've debated putting in both TEs I have at the moment.

The rest of my lineup is on their bye week.... suggestions?

 

[KLin]

hmm Sam Bradford is out. I was going to start Brandon Lloyd this week. I'm thinking I should start Vincent Jackson instead.

Thoughts?

 

[shocksyde]

Jackson is going to have to deal with Revis. I dont like that matchup at all.

 

[KLin]

That's the dilemma. Revis VS. Jackson, or AJ Feeley starting for the Rams. Seems like it's going to be a tossup I guess.

 

[murphy55d]

Willis Mcgahee or DeMarco Murray. Right now have McGahee in as he's the feature back I guess but yahoo projects Murray to have more pts vs the hapless Rams.

 

[zinfamous]

Looks like Palmer is now out and Boller is in tomorrow. At least, that's what the local media is saying everywhere, though Hugh is unwilling to confirm anything.

Reports from training are that ball velocity is not where they expected it to be, though again--unconfirmed by the Raiders.

...not that I imagine anyone was considering putting Palmer in, outside of desperation.

 

[GregGreen]

Jackson is going to have to deal with Revis. I dont like that matchup at all.

I don't like VJax against Revis either but good receivers can still put up ok numbers against Revis (for example, Marshall had pretty good fantasy numbers last week and should have had better if he didn't have the dropsies). LLoyd this week scares me. Three days of practice with a new team and AJ Feeley at QB? No thanks.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Call me crazy, but I think Ponder has a good fantasy day today.

 

[leeland]

GOD some people should just be banned from fantasy football...

So...this moron in my league decided since he was 1-5 and had bye week problems this week to trade the only decent player on his team (Finely)

What did he get back? Ryan Torain and Keller...

Who in their right mind does that trade?

 

[edro]

Arian Foster blowing up!

A good trade. Finley has had ONE good game and been worthless outside of that. He is hoping Keller does well and so does Torain, who was SUPPOSED to start.

I have Finley and have debated to flat out drop him.

 

[brainhulk]

wow, doug baldwin got a goose egg.

 

[BrokenVisage]

First pass for Ponder, 73 yard TD.

OK so they took the TD away, time for AP to take care of that!

 

[KLin]

VJax = 1 catch for 15 yards.

 

[Bibble]

Picked up Tebow this morning to fill in for Vick for the bye. I was sorely disappointed when I checked in at half time but then got a very pleasant surprise when CBS said Denver had made it to OT. Wound up with ~25 points!

 

[KLin]

Thank you Mike Wallace.

 

[Fingolfin269]

I really wish fantasy football allowed the use of 'handcuffs' in a live game. I hate losing a RB, like McFadden, early in the game while his back up is sitting on my bench piling up yardage. There's no way to plan for that.

It would make sense, I'm sorry to say I'm befitting from this. I had Bush in this week simply because KC can't stop the run and figured he might be good for a touchdown. Still, if you have both I don't see why it can't be flipped. Maybe just one handcuff per team.
