Is it me or is there a huge shift this year from RBs dominating to WR/QB combos dominating? Will this continue? Or will leagues shift back to normal?

In my main league, Carson, Romo, Brady, Delhommee are the top 4 scorers. Next is Steve Smith, Derek Anderson and then Chad. The first running back is Edgerring James and then Lamont. If this continues I can't see myself winning my league even with Gore and Marion Barber as my top 2 (have Maroney, T. Bell and Lynch on the bench) with Wayne (top WR), Boldin, as my top 2 WRS and McNabb being my QB (let's see how he does tonight).

I was having this exact talk twice this weekend. The stud RB is really taking a back seat, and secondaries are getting absolutely torched this year. I think there are 2 things behind this

1) People saw what Indy/NO/NE have been doing, and people like to copy

2) linebackers are just becoming such phenomenal atheletes that the running is getting tough

3) the tandem technique with 2 quality RB's is really catching on, and people are going with 50-50 or 60-40 load distribution

I know I wish I'd done Smith-CJ instead of Smith-Maroney. But what can ya do...

My Lee Evans for his Ahman Green?

pertinent information:
start QB, RB, RB, R/W, WR, WR, W/T, TE, K, DEF
1pt/10yds, 6pts/TD for both rushing and receiving, no ppr
running backs on my roster: Gore, J Lewis, C Brown, Norwood, Droughns
wide receivers on my roster: S Smith, C Johnson, Driver, Evans, Hackett, Muhammad, Stallworth

thoughts?

I'd probably do it. You could really use the added depth at RB and flex, and with CJ, Smith, and Driver you have 3 guys you can confidently start every week. Do you absolutely need to make this move now? I hate selling a guy like Evans so low. Barring a negative point performance next week, he literally can't do any worse. You're probably also buying high on Ahman at the moment

is it like a 7-8 man league ? Your wideouts are stacked, do it.

10 man, I went Gore, Ocho Cinco, S Smith, Driver, J Lewis, L Evans (had 2 5th round picks) We added the W/T slot this year and I thought it was crucial to get 3 WRs in the first 5 rounds.

Of the 2 TENN Rb's, who is the one to keep? I have both and i'm going to be shopping them this week.

I have the #1 waiver spot this week - did any performance from an undrafted/rarely-owned player in Week 2 warrant giving this up? Maybe the QB from Cleveland?

I think it's going to be pretty tough to decide week to week who will produce, so I doubt you'll get a good answer. Just dump which ever one you can get the most for imo

[Spellmen]

Are your other QBs named Chad Pennington and Steve McNair? If not, then no. Anderson doesn't get to play the Cincinatti D every week

Think I'm gonna try and grab LDT from his distraught owner this week. Also, the owner of MJD is thinking of dropping him. I just used waiver priority to pick up Brandon Jacobs, so no chance I can claim him, so possibly thinking of trying to wheel a Benson or Maroney package for him. I'd like to somehow get Smith or CJ, but I don't think he'll let either go, so maybe getting one of his QBs would help. Here are relevant rosters:

My team:
QB: Favre (dropped Glenn to match him up against NY), Leinart, Rivers
WR: Harrison, Javon Walker, Galloway, Santonio Holmes
RB: Parker, Maroney, Portis, Benson, Jacobs
TE: Gates
K: Gostowski
D: Pitt

Team 1
QB: Bulger, Romo
WR: Smith, Chad Johnson, Cotchery, Curry
RB: LJ, MJD, Lynch
TE: Crumpler, Watson
K: Wilkins
D: Chicago, Carolina

Team 2
QB: Brees, Cutler
WR: Boldin, Reggie Brown, Lee Evans, Berrian
RB: LDT, Peterson, Ronnie Brown
TE: Davis, Dallas Clark
K: Vinatieri
D: Denver, Seattle

It's an 8 team league and the LDT owner is 0-2, Team 1 is 2-0 on the strength of his WRs, and I am 0-2 due to facing Manning/Wayne week 1 and Palmer/Housh/JLew week 2

Is it worth swinging Benson for MJD? Any trade that benefits me where I get one of his WRs? I Portis+Walker for one of them good enough?

What should I offer for LT? I was thinking Parker + Maroney, but I don't know that it would get it done. Can I swing a big trade where I include Gates or Walker? I can probably trade him Holmes or someone straight up for Lee Evans, so I may also do that and then stock him onto the bench until his matchup nightmare is over
