Wow that's rough man. Nobody else whatsoever on the wire? Can we help you put together a trade offer or something?

 

[rcpratt]

Those were my waiver solutions Hillman and Antone Smith are out there, but I think I prefer Storm and Stewart.

OK - good luck. I don't think much of JStew this year but understand why you made those picks. I think Antone Smith is this year's Ellington and will continue getting more and more snaps this year but he is facing the tough Ravens D this week. Still consider picking him up for later since he has a cupcake schedule for the fantasy playoffs - GB, PIT, and NO. By then ATL may be out of the playoff chase so they'll begin giving the carries from SJax to Smith and Devonta Freeman to see which is their RB of the future since it sure as hell ain't Jacquizz Rodgers.

I'd take Hillman over Storm. 56 snaps last week to Storm's 30, Hillman also gets easier fronts and has 170 yards in the past 2 games alone. Jax' running back situation will continue to be a black hole of nothingness due to the horrible run blocking. Not sure why anyone would even put a JAX RB on their roster until that line proves it can block.

Stewart, you're betting on volume which is a real possibility of happening, Antone Smith is a matter of making ATL management realize they need to give this kid the rock. Like someone else mentioned, could be the 2014 version of Ellington. Eventually the cream rises to the top, but I like Stewart's volume better for this week.

Hope you don't own Percy Harvin as he just got traded to the Jests for a fifth rounder. Whatever value he had left just got torpedoed.

Need to play one of these guys in PPR: Ronnie Hillman, Odell Beckham, Kendall Wright, Travis Kelce(already have Jordan cameron as my TE)

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

What two WR?
Cordarrelle Patterson Min WR vs Buf
Brian quick STL WR vs Seattle
Torrey smith Bal WR vs ATL

Right now Cordarrelle is riding the bench.

Kelce, easy choice. Don't be surprised if Kelce outscores Cameron.

Not Cordarrelle.

anyone getting really annoyed with yahoo's stats/news bubble suddenly just opening into a new tab without any of the info you're looking for?

Good luck with that against the Chargers defense. One of the best versus tight ends.

Yeah this is why I was kind of leaning towards Beckham, with Cruz out and SD being tough against TE.

 

[monk3y]

I go through this every week...

Cam Newton or Tony Romo?

Pick 2
Ahmad Bradshaw, Eddie Lacy, Ronnie Hillman?

 

[Adrenaline]

Palmer or Ryan?

 

[eits]

everytime i click on a player's news/stats button next to their name in yahoo, i get a freaking new tab with the player's news page or something, like this: http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/25755/news/

the most frustrating thing ever. when the hell did yahoo change things to where you can't simply get the little bubble window popup with the player's news blurb and weekly stats?

i hope you started romo and ronnie hillman.

Kelce had no problems on his 4 of 4 receptions beating Gilchrist, Weddle, Addae, and Butler for the highest grade on KC's offense yesterday and totaling 26 yards after the catch. I've been telling you guys all year that I think he's matchup proof as a baby Gronk, the problem is that Reid isn't using him enough. Dwayne Bowe should not be getting more targets than Kelce as we saw with Bowe's horrible drop.

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

Hah, had Kirk Cousins in one of my leagues. Got a solid 1.56 points out of him.

I swear Yahoo is run by a bunch of monkeys.

If you disable adblock it should work again.

Yeah had that issue over the weekend using FF browser with the Yahoo memo icons. In Chrome it was working fine so switched to that.

i'm using chrome and get that issue.

i tried disabling adblock before and it didn't work. i guess i'll have to try again with a new window or something.

I don't know what they changed, but the bubble doesn't work on Opera or Firefox (use adblocking with both), but does work still on Internet Explorer and on my phone.

I don't like you.

I don't know why. :whiste:

My team looked a lot weaker early in the season, Demaryius is really helping me out.

Just saw this in same league (PPR, Keeper). Is Dez out for the year or something, or am I right to be more than a little suspicious? I don't like to vote against trades unless it really clearly is a case of collusion or a player tanking:

Dez Bryant and Niles Paul
for
Mark Ingram and Khiry Robinson
