If the Vikings are going to trade anyone it should be AP. I hear these experts talk about how AP is one piece they can't move because he's a guy you can build a team around. Last I checked trying to rebuild a team around a RB who is almost 30 years old is a good way to continue sucking long term. Bait someone who has the cap space, hope for gold in draft picks, and cash em in.

How does this relate to fantasy? AP is better for all fantasy owners on any other team. Even the Jags!

BTW, I just offered up Knowshon for Jimmy Graham. After this week I won't need him again (barring injury to either Peterson or Forte) and my TE sucks. I'd rather risk losing due to injury than losing in the playoffs but having the best bench depth in the league.

His cap hit is the reason he is untradable. Too many teams are up against the cap as it is. RB isn't worth it anymore. Unless he is willing to modify his contract, he wont be traded to any team that is contending.

EDIT: Looked it up...No team that is in contention is even close to being able to absorb the cap hit. Look at his contract! Its seriously out of control for a RB.

In one league I need 19 points from Seattle K and D/ST tomorrow and 5 from the Seattle D/ST in a different league.

That is a good reason. The reasons the 'experts' keep throwing out there are what I have issue with.

Unless he has a need at RB, Moreno for Graham straight up may not be enough. Graham is even more a lock on the #1 TE spot since it looks like Orange Julius got hurt today, Jordan Cameron's performance isn't holding up to the huge points he put up early, and Gronk remains a huge question mark (2 recs for 27 yards today).

That's first offer. He comes back looking for more I still may bite. Gronk and Vernon Davis are other options as well but I'm going to need something else in return for either of them. All I know is I have great WR depth, great RB depth, but stuck with Heath Miller at TE in a 12 team league.

Well folks that's a wrap. Today's loss takes me to 1-7, and I am eliminated from the playoffs.

As of right now, I am third in the league in scoring, and the guy who eliminated me is dead fucking last.



See you all in a year.

Lol that's tough finch.

What is the likelihood that Marshall Lynch will score 27.20 points tomorrow? That's what he needs to do for me to lose. It sucks having to wait LOL

I would do it in a split second. Jimmy Graham is beyond a beast

So this week, my league's "Taco" played three players on bye, but it looks like he's going to win because of Peyton Manning. His opponent still has the Seattle kicker but he's down by about 13.

Need like 5 field goals from the Seattle kicker.. let's go!

I need about 4 from Hauschka to win. Probably not going to happen, but you never know. Will probably lose this week by 2 points to someone who is 5-2. Matt Ryan's 4 INTs killed me but he was the best option to start and had his worst game of the year as PFF predicted. I had won 3 weeks in a row but can't win em all.

Yeah, at this point I would do it although Moreno has been a beast at a position that has been hard to get production out of this year.

Man, don't forget Witten shitting the bed the past 3 weeks as well. 1.5 points yesterday and < 5 the week before. I'm about to flip him to my buddy who is a Cowboys fan and expressed interest. With the emergence of Beasley and T.Williams, it has really eaten into Witten's production. I may propose a Witten for Harvin deal, especially since Seattle still has their bye week left.

no, just no
Um yes. Through week 6, Megatron had been well under his projection 3 times (3.7 pts, 2.50 pts, 10.40 pts) and missed a game. He was so average that his owner in my league put him up for grabs on October 15th. Everyone kept lowballing him b/c nobody is going to give up a top 5 RB for a boom or bust WR, and the owner couldn't unload him. What you fail to recognize is that a #1 receiver should possess consistency and Calvin hadn't been displying that until the past 2 weeks. It's a good sign though. Week 11 will be his next test (Revis who's shut him down multiple times) and then the week after vs Green Bay's cloud coverage (Tramon Williams who's done it before). The rest of the way he should be eating opponents up and hopefully displaying more consistency than the first half of the fantasy season.

I'm fine if you think Megatron might be overvalued as a fantasy asset due to lack of consistency or other metrics. I'd ask though, if not him then who would you say is the #1 WR in Fantasy for the remainder of the season?

I feel your pain. I have Brady and Ryan so I had no chance this week.
