Who should I add? Who should I drop? Is this a good/bad trade?
Is this ruling by the commissioner FUBAR? Bad Beats, Random Topics of discussion, etc etc.


Starter Topic

Who will be a bigger FFB bust

Randy Moss or Larry Johnson?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Well LJ has a much greater potential to bust simply because he's going in the top 5 overall & nobody has Moss in their top 10 WR's.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

LJ ldo

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

LJ but it's a bad question. Moss is going as a 3rd starter at best, so unless you massively reach for him there's no way he can bust. He's a low risk, high reward 3rd receiver

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

aghh...i feel like i may get bit in the ass for trading Moss...got freaked cuz he wasnt playing plus he has that hammy injury

Standard Scoring Yahoo League with 12 Teams and Flex:

QB Romo/Farve
WR Boldin
WR Braylon
WR Glenn
RB Maroney
RB Benson
W/R Ahman Green/Brandon Jackson
TE Gates
D JAX
K Hanson

BN: McMichael/Welker/Lendale

Just finished drafting. My initial thoughts are that I'm really looking to deal Gates(McMichael fell to the 14th) for a top notch WR. Does everyone like that idea?

Players with weak TEs that might be interested include:
T1: Harrison/Evans
T2: Smith
T3: Fitzgerald
T4: Holt/Colston
T5: Roy Williams
T6: Wayne/Driver

Which of these would be most worth going after and which of these would require me to get something extra(an upgrade at my 3rd RB spot for instance)?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

I would target Harrison, Wayne, Evans, Smith, Fitz. Don't go after Holt

Isn't Evans a notch lower than the other 4 listed here? I'd agree he's good value, but I'm sure I'd have to grab someone else to go with him.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Evans is money if u play in a league that gives bonuses for long tds

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

All Travis Henry owners should pick up Selmon Young. He is the backup RB. Mike Bell will be used at fullback and as the 3rd RB.

Selmon has looked pretty sick during the preseason.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

At what point do you have to say "[censored] it" and draft LJ? Pick 7? 10? Later? Are people with a clue actually taking him earlier than that?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Even Kubiak has him at 6, right? (I just have the mag).

So yeah. A lot earlier than one may think. After Gore, after Westbrook, after Addai, and then he's still projected better than anyone else (in FF terms).

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

At 10 I'd be thrilled to get him...at 7, I'd still certainly take him, but be disappointed he fell to me.

My rankings would go LDT, Sjax, Gore, Addai, LJ, Parker, Westbrook, Alexander

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

If he's still on waivers in your league, and you need a TE, pick up Tony Scheffler.

I have a possible deal with Maroney/Glenn for Thomas Jones and Wayne. Thoughts? I feel like the deal puts me solid everywhere around but I don't feel good in having not one sure thing back.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

The other possibility that I'm thinking is dealing Gates and Maroney for Addai and Driver but that makes me feel like I'm losing too much. Thoughts?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

omg, I just found out that the draft I'm in on Weds goes like this:

1-10
10-1
2-1 (2-10, then 1 picks)
3-2 (3-10, then 1 and 2 pick)
4-3

WTF? Wouldn't that make the late picks horrible?

The same people that make it TD only.
6 pts for a TD
7 pts for a TD 10-19 yards
8 pts for a TD 20-29 yards
9 pts for a TD 30-39 yards
10 pts for a TD 40-49 yards
11 pts for a TD 50+

That's it. K score 3-7 pts for field goals and DEF is just 6 pts/TD.

I'm not looking forward to the draft.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

What pick is the worst?! 1 gets LDT but then has to draft last the next 2 rounds and almost last half the draft. 10 has to pick near the bottom almost the entire time...

Mid picks don't seem as bad... 4-7 seem much more attractive in this format than a standard snake style, right?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

I've been offered Willis McGahee and Peerless Price for Santonio Holmes and Lee Evans

My RBs are Reggie Bush, Rudi Johnson, Jamal Lewis and Reuben Droughns. My WRs are Larry Fitzgerald, Javon Walker, Lee Evans, Jerry Porter, Santonio Holmes, Vincent Jackson and Mike Furrey.

It's a PPR league and we start 2 RBs/3WRs and a flex (RB/WR).

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Anyway you can bump up from Peerless Price? Initially I was going to say hell no, but then I realized you had a flex. Bush, Rudi, Willis slotted every week into the RB and flex plus Fitz, Walker, and Jackson is gonna be pretty tough to beat. I also don't like giving up Holmes because I think he's gonna have a great year, but if you can't counter something less then I would personally take this deal. Wait on some more feedback though

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

He also offered me McGahee and Price for Lee Evans and Jamal Lewis. what do you think?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

I have Michael Turner. Do you think offering LDT's owner Turner and Housh for Chad Johnson is a reasonable offer?

I could also go after Harrison instead. Or do a Turner/Cutler for Kitna or Turner/LJ Smith for Vernon Davis offer.

Are any of these reasonable, and if so, which is the best for me?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Anyone want to giveme some last minute sleepers in the TE and RB positions?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

hmmm...i put trades in the title right?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Hey guys, I'm agonizing over this decision, need some help.

Standard scoring, 2rb, 2wr, 2 flex starting

I have Addai, Ronnie Brown, Lynch, Norwood at RB, and Andre Johnson, Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes, Cotchery, DJ Hacket at Wr.

The trade would be Norwood/Holmes for Edge/Joe Horn.

I feel like the stability at RB is needed for me because I'm scared of the bust potential of Brown/Lynch/Norwood, but I also love the potential of Holmes and Norwood.

You guys think I need to pull the trigger? or try and ride it out with the high risk/high reward? I'm leaning towards the trade with my depth at WR. Remember its a 2 flex league so RB is so huge. Thanks in advance.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

Just a quick one. Dj Hackett vs TB or Wes Welker vs NYJ?

Thanks AC

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT ***
 

Time to trade for Reggie Bush after week is over. Who else? Maybe Brees... hmm. Got to get value from retards when bad weeks happen, especially week one. Lots of suckers want to dump players for bad week. Happens every year.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

So my WR3 spot just got a hell of a lot weaker as I have Terry Glenn there - in the event he's out for a large chunk of the season, how much value do you think I could get in trading Marion Barber, Lendale White or Ladell Betts? At the moment I'm playing Devery Henderson there at the moment, but after that my bench consists of Ronald Curry and Dwayne Jarrett...

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

whoops, posted this in the wrong thread

Ok, what do you guys think about this add/drop?

my team is:

romo
houshmanzadeh
braylon edwards
roy williams
santana moss
isaac bruce
reggie bush
travis henry
jamal lewis
lamont jordan
jason witten
elam
miami def

i want to pick up selvin young, he's travis henry's backup in denver. my reasoning is if henry goes down, he'll be a better option than either jordan or jamal lewis in the denver system.

i cant really ever see playing jamal lewis, even if henry when down; i would start jordan. but there are some weak rb teams in my league and he could be trade bait. worth the drop/add? is he the guy to drop if i do it?

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

If your gonna drop anyone, drop Bruce. Jordan has a ton of value right now, especially to teams without RB's, so if you trade him your presumably wouldn't get a RB back. I'd rather have lewis and Jordan over Young.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

nation:

reposting my response from the other thread:


I'd probably drop Isaac Bruce instead, unless there's some bye week stuff that means you'll need him. Even if you don't, I bet there's comparable production out there on the waiver wire.

-McGee

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

cool.

i like having bruce though. he gives me flexibility so i can rotate moss, bruce, and edwards based on matchups. i think im just gonna stay pat for now and see if i can make a trade or something.

I think playing matchups is really tough with WRs. I don't think I'd ever play Bruce over Moss.

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

What is LT worth trade wise

Say u could trade him for Travis Henry and X what else would X need to be(i.e. a #1 WR and a #3WR, a #1 WR and a #2 or #3 RB) etc ettc

Re: *** Official Fantasy Football Adds-Drops/Trades/Misc Thread : SEPT
 

I'd have to be a ton, his value over the #2 RB could be even greater this year with LJ losing carries due to workload and SJ potential loss of Pace for a while or maybe the season.

Not sure how Gore will do, Addai did look really good the first week. Going to be an interesting season. Some QBs and WRs already look rediculous.

I made sure I got A. Gates in the third round in both my FF drafts...it's like having a fourth WR on your team. And if you buy into value based drafting, he's way above any of the other TE's in the league fantasy-wise. Don't think you're getting enough value out of this trade...Addai is good, but I'd push for a better receiver than Driver. Maybe I just really like having Gates on my team. He did pay off yesterday [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
