Sure is great that I started Palmer instead of Schaub. :irked:

 

I did call Cadillac Williams, though.

 

I had Schaub playing as well in my money league.

2 points fantasy points....:ohbrother::puke::eek:

I have McNabb in my money league, and it looks like he'll probably spend some time out. I've got Manning as my backup, and after a moderately difficult matchup at Dallas, he's at Tampa Bay (who Romo just shredded), at the Chiefs (who gave up 300+ and 3 TDs to Joe Flacco), then home versus the Raiders. Do I need to worry at all about picking up Kevin Kolb or another QB immediately? McNabb should probably miss no more than 4 weeks with cracked ribs.

Eli has looked pretty good today Dragon.

 

He's 20/29 256 yards 1TD 1INT. Hakeem Nicks appears to be done for a while, but I don't think that will affect Eli all that much. It just means Manningham, Hixon, Smith and Boss will have to step up.

I'm a little upset about losing out on a few of these matchups for McNabb (New Orleans and home matches against Tampa and KC), but I'm definitely leaning to rolling with Eli Manning.

I'd pick up Kolb too, but I'd start Eli over Kolb. JMO though, Eli isn't a big time fantasy QB.

Flex position in a PPR league. Who do I start, Fred Jackson or Bernard Berrian?

 

Berrian.

 

Nice call... Although the way all the fantasy honks were talking I agreed with you and them and picked the wrong guy.

A few:

 

Pick 1: Schaub @ TENN, Palmer @ GB

 

Pick 2: LT vs BALT, Cadillac @ Buffalo, K. Smith vs. MINN.

(Cadillac is predicted to score 2x as much as either of them according to CBSSportsline)

I'd roll with Eli for now and forget about Kolb. There's a decent chance that if McNabb is out for an extended period, Garcia or Vick would be more valuable than Kolb.

 

If you know you aren't going to play him in the next 2-3 games, I wouldn't waste a roster spot on him.

Schaub if Kevin Walter plays.

 

Cadillac and Kevin Smith. LT's gimpy he won't score this week.

Have Been offered a Trade:

 

I would get:

 

Matt Cassel

Micheal Turner

Lee Evans

 

Give Up:

 

Carson Palmer

Clinton Portis

 

It's a 2 QB League...If I do this I would have at QB. Brett Farve, Shaun Hill, and Cassel.

 

 

My WR are stacked...I really don't need Evans.

 

It's a 3 WR League.

 

I have:

 

Randy Moss

T. Owens

Tj Houshmandzaheh

 

 

It's a 2 RB League.

 

At this moment I have.

 

Portis

Larry Johnson

 

My bench:

 

Tim Hightower

Marshawn Lynch (One he gets off suspension)

 

 

 

In my eyes, I'm trading Palmer for Cassel. Which IMO Palmer is better and then Portis for Turner. But I think Portis is going to have a good year.

 

Thoughts and what I should do?

Tough trade. I think I'd take it. I like Turner better than Portis, if for no other reason, the Falcons offense is better with Matt Ryan pulling the trigger, and Turner gets the ball a lot in the red zone, so he should produce more TD's than Portis.

 

There's still some doubt and uncertainty around Palmer...can he stay healthy? How good will the Bengals offense be with a suspect o-line? Obviously, Cassel is no sure thing either, but I think you're getting the better RB and whether you need Evans or not, if Buffalo continues with the no huddle, he will provide some quality depth which you never know when you'll need it.

 

The question to me is whether you think Palmer will stay healthy and have a big year. I don't think I'd be confident enough to pass on Michael Turner and a bonus WR that could produce over a 1000 yards and 8 TD's.

All good points....I have to think about it....:idunno:

I wouldn't have a problem either way. I think it's a coin flip. In toss-up trades like that, I typically go with the side that's getting the best player and most reliable player, and I think Turner is the top player involved in that deal.

 

I traded Westbrook, Marshall and Henry for Addai, Andre Johnson and the other Steve Smith earlier this year. That was the deciding factor for me. I felt like AJ was the best player of the six involved, so I pulled the trigger.

I think I'll do it.

 

I would have as my QB's.

 

Cassel

Farve

 

Bench

Hill

 

WR

TO

Randy Moss

TJ

 

RB

Turner

Larry Johnson

Marshawn Lynch (once he gets off suspension

 

W/RB

L Evans

Manning for Flacco

 

Am I missing something or is the person at the other end of this trade as dumb as I think he is?

 

And so we are clear I have Flacco.
