Trade proposed in my league:

Antonio Brown & Julio Jones for Boldin.

Guy getting Jones is first place, guy getting Boldin is last. Could be a matter of last place guy just liking Boldin for some reason.

They are a father (first place) and his 10 or 12 year old son (last place) but it looks a little fishy to me as this would help dad and hurt the kid.

Should I vote against it? I'm inclined to not bother since it's only a fun league and it happens to be my brother-in-laws brother, don't want to piss anyone off.

Vote against it and post something in the league that it is a crap trade. Email the other people that it is collusion and needs voted down.

Publicly state for the commissioner to veto the trade. Do a somewhat legit trade or don't trade at all.
 
My Reggie bush for his McCoy.... that's a heartbeat trade right?

I think everyone will veto the crap out of it. Because I would then have foster and McCoy as my RB.

Welp, this was the week that I conceded a loss for while drafting my team, will be a miracle if I win especially against a 5-1 team but at least I'm 4-2 and can take a loss.
 
Need advice on a FF league I'm in. Half of my team is on bye this week so I'm playing almost a completely different team. My original plan was to start both Ahmad Bradshaw and Andre Brown, hoping they would split carries and frankly, because I had no other viable options. Then, I found that Jonathan Dwyer will be carrying the bulk of the load today for the Steelers. He's been sitting unused on my bench since the beginning of the season.

Dwyer is a definite start, now I need to decide between Bradshaw and Brown. It looks like Bradshaw was questionable because he didn't practice on Friday but might play. Would you start Bradshaw or Brown?
 
CJ Spiller vs. Ten
or
Doug Martin vs. NO

Really wish Fred Jackson would get re-injured, would make this so much easier.

CJ


I need to pick 2: Anquan Boldin @ HOU, Lance Moore @ TB, or Nate Washington @ BUF.

I was planning on starting Alex Smith this week but benched him and picked up Hasselbeck since TEN is playing BUF, so this normally wouldn't be a question but getting Washington in might end up being a one-two punch. Also Houston's defense is pretty good which might reduce the number of passes BAL is throwing and thus lower Boldin's potential.

Bradshaw is playing today, so I would start him.

washington and... ugh... moore, i guess? moore is due for yards and a touchdown. boldin is probably just gonna get yards.
 
thanks...i was thinking the same

i hope i'm right... it's just that rg3 is a necromancer when it comes to moss... when it comes to important plays, moss is a go-to guy. they're playing a tough defense and i don't think the giants are gonna focus on moss too much. we'll see...
 
Regarding the Giants game.. with 7 seconds left they call a timeout after Cruz gets a first down near the 20. They send out their FG unit and kick a field goal to tie. But in that situation, why not go for a fake FG pass? You either catch them for an easy TD or you throw it incomplete after 3 seconds, then it's only second down.

Also, we now know Chris Johnson is simply a mediocre-at-best player. It takes a defense as bad as the Bills for him to have a good game, there is now more empirical evidence against him then ever before. It wasn't just '"bad luck" with most of those games, he's just not good enough.

Yeah I started Doug Martin over him in one of my leagues. I just can't trust CJ yet but he is having a hell of a day. Doug Martin is having a good day so far though so no real bummer
 
My team really showed up in the ATOT league. Ahmad Bradshaw, C.J. Spiller and Andre Johnson are all having good games. Even the Texans D/ST is playing lights out
