what about moss, do i add a fourth receiver and sit ingram?

IMHO Ingram has a cushy match up his week. Could Moss catch a td? Sure. But that's about where his value ends. At least you know Ingram will get 10-15 touches, including any goal line work. I think you can count on Ingram for a solid 8-12pts, I'll take that all day.

Now watch Moss catch 3 passes for12 yds and 3 tds haha.

P.s. that's not happening... I think...

Pick up Kyle Rudolph. The Niners are going to shut down AP so the Vikes offense will need to be picked up Kyle. Available in most leagues.

Kyle has 4 receptions, 34 yards and a TD in the 1st quarter. I hope someone took my advice here.

Hey guys,

Just got a crazy trade proposal. It is my two QB league where that position is crazy important. Passing TDs are worth 4 points and rushing are worth 6. I have Romo and Rivers there now, but was offered Newton for Harvin and McGahee. I am pretty loaded at WR and RB, so can take the hit if I really need to. Thoughts?

I'd pass...Romo will have better days ahead of him and Newton will have worse days.

I'd take it especially because Romo has a bye this week. But try a counter offer to see if you can get a better deal

Yeah, I think I am going to do it and try and turn around and deal Rivers or Romo to another team for some depth.

Thanks gents.

I need to pick 5 guys out of the following to play this weekend:

Matt Forte @ Jacksonville
Reggie Bush @ Cincy
Ben Green-Ellis vs Miami
Jackie Battle @ NO
Steven Jackson vs Arizona
Antonio Brown vs Philly
Steven Johnson @ SF
Desean Jackson @ Pitt
Danny Amendola vs Arizona

I like your picks. You could convince me to play Amendola or Jones over Brown (I think those three are toss ups given Brown's tougher matchup), but other than that I'd go with what you have.

I agree and my WR choice may change between now and the weekend. Amendola has been pretty solid.

I'd sit D. Jax and start James Jones or Steven Jackson instead

I got Mike Willaims, Jeremy Kerley (No. 1 for Jets now?), & Sidney Rice. Advice on who to start (2 of the 3)?

I hate bye weeks

Went with Williams & Rice = 31 pts Kerley got like 3

Gentlemen,
Here was a trade proposed to me:
- I give up Matt Ryan and Maurice Jones-Drew
- I get Ray Rice

Here's my lineup:
QB - Matt Ryan
RB - Mo-Jo
RB - Michael Turner
WR - Andre Johnson
WR - Dwayne Bowe
TE - Dennis Pitta
W/T - Marques Colston
W/R/T - Darren Sproles
Bench - RG3, Nate Burleson, Brandon Gibson, Jermaine Gresham

Should I give up Matty Ice and Mo-Jo to get the best RB in the game? I'd still have RG3, but I'm not sure he's as reliable.

Definitely take it, is RGIII not the No. 1 QB in your league (he is in my Yahoo league)?

I think you only posted this to brag. That team is redonkeylous. Have you lost any games?

Yeah I lost last week when Turner decided to not show up and Matty Ice **** the bed. Plus Colston, Sproles, and Mo-Jo were on byes.

Basically, would you guys trust RG3 enough to have him be your starting QB?

I don't have him on my team but a buddy of mine does and He is getting the points. I trust him but the playing calling the give him blows. I wouldn't do that but thats just me.

Damn, that's a ballsy move. I guess it all depends on how your league is set up. Which position is the most valued in your league? Is it PPR? I know that Mojo isn't having a great year so far but you've gotta ask yourself if Ray Rice's production will compensate for the loss in points that starting RGIII instead of Matty Ice will cost ya. I may be talking out of my *** right now as I decided to sit this season out because I had a kid at the start of the season so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Either Matty Ice or RG3 sits on the bench for me every week. Ray Rice is pulling more points per week than Mo-Jo. It's a pretty good upgrade.

But I feel like I'm basically giving away Matty Ice to upgrade a pretty good set of RBs.

Exactly. Is your league more a RB league or a QB league? I honestly think RGIII won't survive the season. I had Cam last year but that dude is built like a tank and can take the punishment. The league seems to be gunning for RGIII this year. I worry about relying on a rookie QB and having no viable backup. Could you counter offer for a QB by maybe throwing in a lower WR on your roster?

I can play 3 RBs and 3 WRs every week. Or I could go 2 RBs and 4 WRs. Aside from his concussion game, RG3 has been great. But yeah I worry about his durability. With this trade my lineup looks like this:

QB - RG3
RB - Ray Rice
RB - Michael Turner
WR - Andre Johnson
WR - Marques Colston
TE - Jermaine Gresham
W/T - Dwayne Bowe
W/R/T - Darren Sproles
Bench: Brandon Gibson, Nate Burleson, Dennis Pitta, (open - hopefully that guy will throw in either Jay Cutler or Christian Ponder as a backup for me)

Is that lineup better (including the bench) better than the one I listed above?

Fantasy is about point differential, not players. Every player can miss games, its an inherent risk. Do you feel that if RG3 went down, that the point differential between your current RB's and new RB's would make up the difference between RG3 and some other replacement QB?

I do.

I got this situation at RB this week:

Ray Rice vs Houston
Steven Ridley vs The Jets
Ryan Matthews Bye Week
Felix Jones (just picked him up till Murray comes back) vs Carolina

Which two should I start? Rice has the toughest matchup but he's Ray Rice.

Rice and Ridley. Never trust a Cowboy in fantasy, that's my motto.
