You can always come back, RBs are really tough to come by this year and tons of QBs to be had. WRs are always iffy so you could play who has the hot hands any given week. You'll just have to stay on top of it and vulture the injury reports...sorta like I do. 🙂

If you don't have waiver then you can run and jump on a player when you're watching the game.

Am I stupid for not playing a kicker this week? I dropped my kicker to pick up GB RB Green, because of byes I HAD to have another RB to fill in for MJD and Michael bush (bye).

My other receivers and a single QB will cover me through week 6,7,8 which is where I'm hurting at multiple positions. If I don't play a kicker, I'll be much better set for week 7 and 8 and can play a kicker in those weeks. Bench has Hawkins, Nicks, MJD, Michael Bush and Joe Flacco. After these next two weeks I can start using them for trades as it's a 14 man 2 QB league and folks are desperate for ANY QB.

Stupid or smart? I'm down 2-3 and am playing a relatively weak team, I'm thinking more long term and closing out strong with high points.

Kickers can score some good points, so this would be a great decision. I did play with no TE for 7 games straight one year and won all seven as there was not a good TE at all on the WW. People had all the decent TEs locked up and saw me winning the league at that time so they snatched them up as I had like 6 starting RBs. Friends, gotta love them.

Post what is available. You could cut Bush as well for one.
 
Which WR to pick? What about my RBs?

QB: Peyton Manning, Michael Vick
WR: Brandon Loyd, Andre Roberts, Marques Colston (bye), Greg Jennings (out), Mario Manningham, Jeremy Kerley
RB: Lesean McCoy, Frank Gore, Alfred Morris, Vick Ballard
TE: Kyle Rudolph, Jimmy Graham (bye)
K: Lawrence Tynes
D/ST: Baltimore, Houston

I can also pick Josh Gordon or look for someone you guys think would be worth a waiver wire pickup.

I'm hesitant to let Bush go, I actually drafted him because of his endzone/TD capability for my W/R/T flex position.

Yea, thats what I've been trying to do. I'll stick it out but don't like any of my teams this year anymore..

Depending on the starting DEF you have, that would be another route.
 
Most kickers average about 9.5 points. If u can afford to tank a week, go ahead.

Ive only had one week where the difference was under 10 points. So think carefully, one game could mean you miss the playoffs.
 
Personally this is the first and last time I do an auction league, don't really like it. It's not that my team is bad or anything (it actually is performing much better than I thought it would after the draft) but I just don't like the format.

I like it. It keeps people from bitching about their draft slot ALL season long about how unfair it is.
 
And why in the world is Shonn Greene projected so high this week. Is there something magical about the Colts run defense that are making people think he is not going to suck like he has all year long?

So, IYO I should trade Chris Johnson for Steven Jackson? Not so sure, I think Chris Johnson has a better chance of getting his shit together because he's the quicker and more talented back as well as a lot younger. I think I'll hold on to him and desperately hope that he returns to form maybe in time for the playoffs because the back of the Titans schedule looks good

apparently, they allow 138 or so yards per game rushing.

you looking at espn projections, right? Look at cbs projections. I think they are more accurate

jackson is guaranteed points. johnson isn't. jackson is a big back that powers his way into the endzone when the rams are in the red zone. jackson's got more of an offense around him, too, with a half-assed offensive line, which is better than a piss poor offensive line. also, he can catch passes, where johnson is being used as an extra blocker because the offensive line is so awful.

is there a chance johnson may get his shit together? yeah, of course, but it isn't he who sucks, it's the offensive line. the rams have a better offensive line than the titans.
