thanks boys. That was what my head was telling me, but my heart was telling me the Giants porous defense will stiffen. I gotta stick with Cam.

I'm a Giants fan, and I am telling you, our D is awful haha. I'd start everyone against us weekly.

Son of a BISCUIT!!!! That Trent Richardson trade completely screws me... I have Bradshaw as my RB2... and now he is basically worthless... I am completely torn, do i try and trade him or should i hold on to him and see what happens...

If i dont trade for another RB2 i may be forced to start Fred Jackson...

I need help guys. Im desperate.

Rb2's never do **** anyways, you should sign Willis McGahee as a FA for the lorff

One of my idiot friends has been holding onto mcgahee since he did the try out with the giants last week.

I think I am gonna try and trade for GIO Bernard

Not a fantasy football thing. But if you are in a confidence or survival pools, the lock of the season maybe of the decade has to be this week with Jacksonville traveling to Seattle (were the Seahawks never lose these days).

Play Fred

Play Fred

Fred Jackson is not all the bad of an RB 2 he's had 25 carries 1 TD and 9 receptions through two weeks. It looks like he will continue to get the goal line looks too. Good luck with Bradshaw. I was ready for a breakout with my sleeper too, just not in the cards for him now.

I've made a lot of trades and wanted feedback on my new team if I did good or not:

QBs- Had Matthew Stafford/Eli Manning - Now-Michael Vick/Andrew Luck

WRs- Had Calvin Johnson/Roddy White/Vincent Jackson/Tavon Austin/Darius Hayword Bay/Alshon Jeffery- Now have DeSean Jackson/ James Jones/ Vincent Jackson/ Stevie Johnson/ Robert Woods

RBs- Had Matt Forte/Giovanni Bernard/Bryce Brown/Cierre Wood - Now Matt Forte/Frank Gore/ Bryce Brown/ Ben Tate

TEs- Had Jason Witten/ Jermaine Grishom - Now Julius Thomas/Coby Fleener

FG- Same in Robbie Gould

DEF- St. Louis to Kansas City

My thoughts:
QBs- I consider Vick an upgrade over Stafford with things to be nervous about: possible injury to him or other playmakers/ defenses figuring out chips offense. A risky move

WRs- even- its tough to lose Johnson but I think im deeper now in terms of production as I think roddy white is going to have an awful year with the way the Falcons are treating his injury.

RBs- I think an upgrade with gore over Bernard. However its a risk considering Bernard has huge upside and gores production has gone down over the years. Ben Tate is a nice pick up when foster goes down ( I think he will cause he always seems to go down)

TEs- UPGRADE- Julius Thomas and Coby Fleener I could possibly start together with one in my flex and get huge numbers. Im excited about my TEs.

I only have 4 players from my original drafted team. This is a 12 team standard scoring league. Thoughts?

I think your team is in trouble if you are playing a TE as a flex. Plug a RB in there. I try to never have less than 7-8 running backs on my roster, and never have more than one QB and TE, which I'm always the last person to take.

*I am by no means an expert though, but do quite well in my leagues hoarding RBs and not caring so much about the other positions other than having one top receiver.

 

[BabyIrish]

Thanks for the input, I unfortunately missed the first four rounds of my draft and had autopicked three wrs and one rb; so I have been trying to get better by trades. Again I think getting gore and tate helps, but I for sure would like to get another solid rb. Hopin for at least one more trade to do that.
However, Both those te's could easily pick up huge points as they are the #1's by far on their teams on two teams who love passing it around especially to te's.
I do agree, that right now I currently don't see myself winning the league this year.

Thomas has alot of value right now. You could easily turn into him into a solid RB.

 

[BabyIrish]

yea will see how it pans out, thanks for the thoughts!

OK. TD heavy league. Like 6 pts for a TD and 1 point for every 25 yards either rushing or receiving. I need to pick 2 from Alfred Morris (vs DET) or Giovanni Bernard (vs GB) or Daryl Richardson (vs DAL) or Ryan Mathews (v TENN). Right now I have Morris and Bernard in.

Richardson and Morris IMO.

Ok. TD heavy league, and he will be my 3rd QB, although the others have struggled. Pryor or Freeman?

 

[BabyIrish]

I would say Pryor, Don't know how Freeman will do in Minnesota especially with Peterson getting carries in the redzone. Pryor has the potential to run and pass more then freeman imo

 

[Irish Insanity]

That was my initial thought then Freeman signed so I figured it was worth a shot. Hell after last night Geno may be worth a shot.

 

[woolybug25]

Why are you signing a 3rd QB? I thought you said that your league doesn't allow for a lot of waiver pickups? I certainly wouldn't waste a valuable roster spot on a 3rd QB.

For that matter... most weeks, even a second QB.

 

[Irish Insanity]

I have Kapernick (sp?) as a starter. He hasn't been productive outside of week one

I have Dalton as a back up who hasn't scored much better.

My third QB I drafted was EJ Manuel. He's hurt and will miss a start which qualifies him as a free uncharged drop.

We have to draft a certain number at each position. We have to carry 3 QBs. Since Manuel is hurt I my as well pick up someone who I could play situationally.

 

[blueNDgold44]

Got a couple questions for you guys:

I need to start 2 of the 4: Brandon Marshall, Anquan Boldin, Reggie Wayne, and Andre Johnson

Same thing, 2 of the 4: Arian Foster, Doug Martin, Knowshon Moreno, and Fred Jackson

Also I have Jared Cook as my TE, who has sucked since week 1, both Vernon Davis and Martellus Bennett are available. Who do you guys think is the better pick up?

 

[Green Blood]

Marshall and Wayne

Foster and Jackson

Grab Vernon Davis ASAP

 

[Ironman8]

How are either of those TEs available? Haha

Both are way better than Cook IMO.

 

[gkIrish]

Lost Julio for the year. There goes my season. Was 4-1 prior to this injury.

I only have to start 2 receivers so I can choose between Nicks, T. Smith, Greg Jennings, R. Randle, and Percy Harvin when he comes back.

 

[dublinirish]

Good to see Ray Rice actually do something took him 5 weeks to get right

 

[Green Blood]

Both are way better than Cook IMO.

No $hit...that's exactly what I was thinking

 

[blueNDgold44]

It is a small league and it is $10 a pick-up haha

 

[IrishLax]

Need advice... standard scoring, no PPR... Joique Bell, Marlon Brown, or Edelman in a flex spot? 14 team league with multiple flexes so it's pretty slim pickings. I'm looking at Bell right now.

 

[gkIrish]

Joique Bell or injured Darren Mcfadden? no ppr

RGIII against Dallas or Rodgers against Baltimore?

Injured Danny Amendola or Eddie Royal?

 

[peoriairish]

I would go with Brown. Bell is sharing with Bush, and Edelman's value took a huge hit when Amendola came back.
