Holy shit am I glad I got Bryce Brown on the waiver last week instead of Parmele. Parmele was my first choice, and I really bought into his hype, so I actually offered a trade of Sproles and Bryce Brown for Parmele after I didn't get him on wire.

The guy that picked up Parmele is a douche though, and likes to hold things over peoples heads, even though he's second to last in the league (and no one likes the dude outside of the league either). Anyway, he was a dick when he declined the trade. So I sent him a nice little "Thank you for not taking that trade" email. It was just a big "eat dick fucker" between the lines email.

God, that felt good.
 
A win over my wife this week put me into #1, as the reigning #1 seed lost by 9 points to an AFKer who has LeSean McCoy in the starting lineup. Ironically, she stays in #4 even with the loss (and would still be #4 with a win, but be "ahead of the pack" by 1 game). Nope, not collusion... my wife's team had a great week. Dez Bryant, Cam Newton and Ray Rice had a better week... that's all.
 
I have been disappointed in Hakeem Nicks and might bench him in my 10 team standard scoring league. Any of these guys worth starting over him?

On my bench: T.Y. Hilton, Denarius Moore, Mike Wallace
On Waivers (I plan on dropping Brandon Lloyd): Ryan Broyles, Pierre Garcon, Chris Givens, Davone Bess, Greg Jennings
 
I have Nicks and many of those other receivers. Nicks was Eli's favorite target on Sunday so it'd be hard to sit him over any of those as he appears healthy and Eli is out of his slump...for now. Unless Ben gets back and you can go with Wallace.

Garcon is a good pick up, but tough to start him right now even though he had a score and 20 points in my league. Maybe a flex play if you don't have a solid RB for that position.

The problem is that I have Nicks and Cruz so when the Giants stink my team stinks, Nicks was his favorite target but he does not look 100% and I see Cruz getting most of the action for the rest of the season. If Ben comes back I will most def start Mike Wallace.

Also, is it time to dump Antonio Gates? He has had two good games all season when I started him and its getting frustrating to see him performing so bad while Heath Miller is sitting on my bench most of the time. I would have won my match this week if I would have started Miller over Gates.

Ouch, don't start two receiviers from the same team.

I also have miller and use him in the flex, but pulled him when Ben was out. If Ben in, then I'm starting him. But then you'd be back to the same problem - starting two receivers from the same team.

Normally the only good time to start two from the same team is a QB and WR1, that way you double up and if the QB goes elsewhere you still get points IMHO.

For example I have Matt Ryan and Julio Jones. One play sunday got me 30 points - the 80 yard Jones TD reception.

Time for me to pick up Atlanta RB Jacquizz Rodgers? RBs are tough to come by in my league and doubtful I have enough FAAB money to get Bryce, need to save some for playoffs.

i'm picking up jacquizz rodgers. if anything, i'm taking him away from anyone who might need him.
 
I'm thinking about dumping Demarco Murray. Thoughts?

My RB situation is:

Alfred Morris
Bryce Brown
Sproles

The only player on the wire worth a damn (if I drop Murray) is Moreno. I actually drafted Moreno, but dropped him week 2 or 3. I'd hate to get him and drop Murray, then have Murray finally play and Moreno bust, but that's the risk.

Could really use some keep/drop advice for Murray. I'm heading to playoffs and don't want to be saddled with a lame horse.

once murray's foot is better, do you think he will be more productive than a warm moreno? i don't. also, he'll be splitting time with jones.

moreno has an easy schedule, too... the defenses he's got coming up are easy. he can rush and catch out of the backfield. i think he's your man.
 
my starting line-up:

qb - peyton manning
rb - alfred morris, felix jones
wr - andre johnson, eric decker, randall cobb
te - owen daniels
flex - julian edelman
k - phil dawson
def - san francisco

bench:
chad henne
lesean mccoy
knowshon moreno
jacquizz rodgers
danny amendola
justin blackmon
 
Starting lineup questions (ppr):

For my 3rd WR spot who should start: Lance Moore, Greg Jennings, Brandon Lloyd

Also should I start Knowshon Moreno over BenJarvus Green-Ellis this week?

What about starting Rodgers, Moreno or Blackmon? Blackmon almost seems like a must start now.
