Just saw that Desean Jackson had been released. Current WRs are, Megatron, Vincent Jackson, and Malcom Floyd. I usually only play two WRs. Would you pickup Desean Jackson?

If you have room for him on your bench. He hasn't had a very good year though.

 

Geez...I have no idea with that. Bell I guess.

 

I am at least considering Forsett because Buffalos run defense is pathetic.

Leshoure might not even play this week. If he doesn't I would go Bell.

I recently was offered this trade and accepted it but I was wondering what your thoughts were on it...

 

Who they are offered to me: Ray Rice, Steven Jackson

Who they want from my team in return: Antonio Brown, Malcolm Floyd, Maurice Jones-Drew, LaRod Stephens-Howling

 

The league is setup each week where you have 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, 1 Flex (WR/RB), 1 TE, 1 DEF/ST, and 1 K.

The scoring system is your standard settings with no bonuses for 100 yard games, etc.

 

Here is my current roster:

 

QBs: Eli Manning, Ryan Fitzpatrick

RBs: MJD, Marshawn Lynch, Kendall Hunter, LaRod Stephens-Howling

WRs: Antonio Brown, Brandon Marshall, Malcolm Floyd, Reggie Wayne, Vincent Jackson, Kendall Wright, Danny Amendola (recently picked up)

TE: Tony Gonzalez

DEF/ST: Houston Texans

K: Shaun Suisham

 

I have considerable WR depth as you can see with my main chink in my armor being the RB position. I'm currently 1st in my 12-man league with a 6-1-1 record ahead by 1.5 games from the team in 2nd. The person I traded with was very weak at WR and he is currently last in our league at 2-6. I wanted a top RB to help secure my spot atop the league and allow me to get into the postseason with my best players at every position. I like the trade in one respect because I get to keep my top 3 WRs in Marshall, Wayne, and Jackson and I pick up another top RB in the league to go with Lynch. Jackson, while he has underperformed this year, is serviceable and I can use him here or there when the matchup is favorable. I also like the trade because since the guy is last in our league, he will have an uphill battle to make the postseason despite his team getting considerably better with this trade (8-6 made the playoffs last year).

 

I obviously gave up a lot but I got to keep my top guys while shedding some of my depth for a top of the line guy at the RB position. What are your thoughts on it?

Rivers vs. KC

Freeman @ OAK

 

I say ride the hot hand of Freeman. You really never know what you're going to get with Rivers at this point.

I think you got a steal personally, worse than stealing a kid's lunch money. That trade looks like it set up your team very nicely. Barring injury, your lineup is

 

Eli Manning

Ray Rice

Marshawn Lynch

Steven Jackson

Brandon Marshall

Reggie Wayne

Vincent Jackson

Tony Gonzalez

Houston Texans

Shuan Suisham

 

Pretty solid/tough lineup if you ask me.

For everyone following my Bradshaw for Manning trade, I might have found a little extra luck. I was worried about my flex player. I was hoping St. Louis would trade SJax so that Darryl Richardson's value would go up. Well I guess Sproles is out indefinitely with a broken hand, making Pierre Thomas' value go up quite a bit I believe. I just found my new flex for the time being while Jordy Nelson get healthy.

Bye week filler, pick 1:

Felix Jones @ ATL

Daniel Thomas @ IND

 

I'd guess Daniel Thomas

Tough choice between Jones and Thomas but if Jones is playing I'm taking him. TDs are hard to project but avg volume is a pretty good measure. Jones averaging 17 touches the past three weeks while Thomas is averaging 11. I'd go with volume.

Pick 2 wide receivers:

 

Brown vs Giants

 

Cobb vs Cardinals

 

Cruz vs Steelers

 

Fitzgerald vs Packers

Cruz and Cobb (only if Nelson is out). Otherwise roll with Fitz.
