Been thinking of off-loading LT but I'm not liking the offers. I really don't feel my team is bad, it's just they're underperforming. Tomlinson, Andre Johnson, and Roethlisberger should be doing better.

Would you guys consider Reggie Bush for Reggie Wayne a fair swap ?

I have both on my team and they can be counted on for consistent numbers every week. I'm actually looking for a RB only because I think I can unload a decent WR for a decent RB. With Harrison not performing like his usual self, plus Brees distributing the ball all around, I'd say Wayne is worth more than Bush.

Oh man, I feel your pain. I have all three as well.

underperformers, shit I got 3 teams of damn under-achievers. I feel like dumping all my players and saying fuck it. Last night was the almost the final straw in one league. I was up 76-71 going into last nights game. I had peterson and lance moore versus his henderson. I figure I had it in the bag. combined projected I had for them two were 29 versus 5 for his henderson. I get 6 and he gets 16. Fuck it.

I hope someone reads this:

I need to pick 3 of the following-

Roddy White
Braylon Edwards
Deion Branch
Antonio Bryant
Roy Williams
Steve Breaston

I'm definitely playing Roddy White. I want to play Edwards but he's sucked so far this season. But he could break out at any time now. Roy Williams is a good receiver on a crap team. Boldin might still be out next week so Breaston is another decent start, especially since I have Kurt Warner as my QB. So I'm not sure what to do.

Well, the Lions ARE playing the Vikes this coming up week, the one of the worst secondaries in the league and plus Braylon and Anderson just don't seem like they are in sync and they are playing the Giants this week as well. I'd pick White, Breaston, and Williams. But what do I know? I'm the guy who played Owens and Wayne while Housh has been hot the past couple of weeks.

why do the Vikes get so much shit for their secondary? did you not see what antoine winfield single handedly did to the saints and to every other WR he's covered this year?

 

[paulxcook]

Ok, so Roddy White is in, Branch, Edwards, and Bryant are out, I guess that leaves me with Breaston and Williams. Not because I think the Vike's secondary is that bad, I think the Giants D is that good and will smother Anderson.

 

[paulxcook]

Double post.

So is anyone else drinking the Kyle Orton Koolaid? I am thinking of picking him up and dropping Kitna, prob will start him over Palmer too

Yes. He has a soft schedule coming up and him over Kitna? No brainer. Detroit is a mess.

Ugh, well he got picked up quick last night. I dropped Kitna for Kerry Collins, I guess I will see if palmer is playing sunday yet.

You're not crazy, I have Palmer and he is killing me slowly, but he keeps teasing me into thinking he'll turn it around. If I had Orton though, I would start him over Palmer this weekend. Kitna is barely worthy of a bench spot in most leagues, never mind starting him.

Need some help with the sit/starts

For the Flex Position (WR/RB) I have the following 3 guys to start:

Fargas vs NO
J.Stewart vs TB
V.Jackson vs NE

According to Yahoo they are projecting the following

Fargas 5
Stewart 4
Jackson 8

Fargas is coming off an injury but starting a RB vs. NO is usually a good play (except last week - thanks AP). Stewart gets a lot of goal line carries but TB has a very good D this year and DEN only put up 16 points vs them last week. Jackson's points have slowly been declining (13,13,10,8,7).

Need some quick trade analysis from all you gurus! I have
Torry Holt
Calvin Johnson
Steven Jackson

and someone wants to trade me for:

Hines Ward
Felix Jones
Dwayne Bowe

I know the Rams have been sucking but they have an easier schedule than Pittsburgh or the Cowboys ....

I think that one depends on what you have for depth at running back. Last year I'd say don't give up on Stephen Jackson so quick becuase he kind of turned it on the last couple games of the season but that team looks beyond repair and as said above the Lions are abysmal and all the talent in the world isnt gonna help CJ if Kitna cant give him the ball. Ward is getting a lot of looks(EDIT, wow, I didn't know he had four td's already, thats pretty good) and Bowe gets a lot of looks and either could be starters, or at least a good flex play.

If you need wideouts and have a decent guy for your two (for sure at least one) RB slots I'd probably do this. And this rams hate is coming from watching the ticket at a friends house who's a die-hard rams fan, and watching a quarter or two of those games is just pathetic - WAY worse than last year.


EDIT: lot's o edits..

 

[cheezy321]

So what are all the Westbrook owners (Like me) doing this next week?

I am wondering whether I should sit or start him.

Isn;t it a broken rib?

Man, sucks for me. I got rid of maroney, but that seems to not matter now since the pats no longer just have 1 main running back. Some guy picked hiim off waivers, but he already got rid of him. Last time, I started buckhalter (or whatever his name is) and he got me 8 or 10 points. Not bad. Too bad I got rid him to keep Miles Austin. What a waste.

I have Slanton, Portis and Edge at RB, at WR, I have deshaun jackson, roddy white, and vincent jackson, I've been really weak at WR because of Holt and I'm not high on Johnson with Kitna sucking

Bowe has been pretty consistent for me. Can't wait to see what he'll do once Croyle is back playing. The week Thigpen played about killed me.

Sounds like you're making the right decision then. I think every Portis owner (myself included) has been pleasantly surprised this year with his performance. Slaton has been turning into quite the play based on matchup too. Depending on your league setup, you could rock Portis and Jones/Slaton based on matchup (I'm not high on Edge since Hightower's steaing his thunder) then go three wide with your best matchup guys. I'm still surprised Ward's got 4 scores this year..

He's in my starting linup for now, but I'm watching his status very closely. I didn't play him last week because I thought he would be out or completely ineffective, but if I had played him I would have won my game.

[Reckoner]

I received a trade offer today....


Current Roster:

QB: Peyton Manning
RB: Edgerrin James
RB: Larry Johnson
WR: Steve Smith
WR: Plaxico Burress
TE: Tony Gonalez
RB/WR: Steve Slaton
D/ST: New England

Bench: Donald Driver, Lendale White, Reggie Brown, Philip Rivers



Trade I was offered:

RECEIVE: Clinton Portis, Torry Holt, and Chansi Stuckey

GIVE UP: Philip Rivers, Edgerrin James, Plaxico Burress, Lendale White


I've really been looking to upgrade the RB spot, so CP would be a nice addition. Losing Plax would hurt, but Driver/Holt should be a serviceable combo going forward. What do you guys think?
