Take it to the house wrote:I think I need a QB- Vick is just being useless and Bradford too inconsistent. Anyone got a QB to trade?

I have Andrew Luck. He's doing pretty well for himself and has been consistent so far this season. If you offered me a good WR or RB (although I know you're not keen on trading your RBs) then I'd definitely consider a trade. In fact, Luck is doing so well just now (23 points on Sunday there) I'd maybe even consider trading Big Ben.... but you'd have to blow me away with an offer to get him!

I'll probably wait and see- makes no sense to trade a good RB away for a good, not great QB in fantasy, i'll be back to square one!

@ Takit it... - One week too late. I put Brady up there and took the only offer I had. Maybe I should have waited a week...

@ Virgil_Caine - your problems could start when the bye weeks start biting. You have virtually no backups.

Can't believe I've jumped from 11th to 3rd overall. Still trade it for 2 more SKins wins though.

RGIII for president! (in 20 years once he's finished playing for the Skins that is)

I think everyone has issues with backups to a degree, Mendenhall coming back after the bye would be a huge boost.

I'm not that worried. Ihave moanouevered for a little depth. Good 1-2 at TE, decent backup QB and a couple of options at RB and WR. Only worry is D. Tried to be cheeky and snag the Hawks or Falcs in FA but got beat to it.

Hindsight is 20-20 but I wish I'd stuck with the Hawks D instead of keeping the 9ers.

I've just seen the predicted scores on my app and I'm some 30 points down on my opponent!

I bit the bullet and dropped Cam for Flacco. Flacco has the Browns so I'm hoping for some big yards and TDs from him tonight. Chances are he'll be picked off 4 times and not throw a single TD.

Has anyone ever gone a season 0-17? I reckon I might if I can't improve my RBs

Virgil_Caine wrote:I think everyone has issues with backups to a degree, Mendenhall coming back after the bye would be a huge boost.

Spot on! I've got 2 QBs who are doing really well (Big Ben and Luck) and thought I was going to be sitting pretty come Big Ben's bye week...... only to discover on Tuesday that both of them are on their bye week this week!!! I usually dump my back up QB after my starter's bye week but Luck has got off to such a good start that I'm going to hang on to him just in case anything happens to Big Ben or even if match ups dictate that Luck might be the better starting option in a given week.

sodhat - I wouldn't worry about predicted scores cos they're usually garbage. They usually way overestimate how players are gonna do.

i could let Jennings go depending on offers

oh and i have signed Choice (if he is any good)?

and dropped the lions D for the seahawks d

Yeah I notice they have been inaccurate so far Number-25. I think mine always come in higher because of Cam's year last season and so far he's struggled to live up to it.

Quick question for those in the know - I've got a waiver wire request in, and it says it'll go through tomorrow. Can I then play that player this week, or is my line up set as of tonight?

Hah, just seen i'm predicted to bag 145 points!!
Ray Rice is on for 40 on his own....

Somehow, I think not.

I have brought in some concussed Raiders TE as Gates is killing me, although i missed out on Hawkins

Which Raiders TE did you go for Moot?

TheBrahmaBull wrote:oh and i have signed Choice (if he is any good)?

don't know much about Choice, but any fit Bills RB should get some action

seahawks D is a decent swap, especially for home games

I was predicted over 140 points last week with Foster predicted for 40 odd yet I didn't even manage to score over 60! I wouldn't take much notice of them!

Twelve if you want Jennings i want Quality not quantity

Having picked up Leshoure and Ryan Williams I'm feeling a lot better about my RB situation. Just in time too, because I'm not sure what use Redman's going to be going forward.
Pretty happy to pick up Jerome Simpson too. Suspension's up, could be a steal.

Hey Twelve, I'll have a think about your trade but I probably won't accept it to be honest. Certainly not this week because Decker is playing Oakland and we can't defend a pass so he could be making hay...

TheBrahmaBull wrote:Twelve if you want Jennings i want Quality not quantity

TBH I consider what I offered to be quality. In any case if you're holding out for a Victor Cruz type player for Jennings then you're right to hold. I wont be making that kind of offer though.

TheBrahmaBull wrote:Twelve if you want Jennings i want Quality not quantity

Would you trade Bush or Charles for anything Bull?

you dont really have anyone i would trade for sodhat

Just saw your trade offer Bull, c'mon dude seriously???

sodhat wrote:Which Raiders TE did you go for Moot?

Brandon Myers, got 20 points so far, compared to Gates's measly 6..

TM Moot wrote:

Oh ok, that's the best of the three to be fair. He seems to get more targets than Ausberry - although Ausberry is a converted WR so he will probably still take targets away from Myers...

TheBrahmaBull wrote:you dont really have anyone i would trade for sodhat

Probably a fair point...

Manningham or Cam not interest you?

Myers has been cleared for contact and is back at practice from what i've read. Looking at the stats he's also got 15 receptions off of 15 targets which is obviously promising.

to be honest i'd never heard of him (had gone for the Giants fella but lost out on waivers), but i need a TE backup to perhaps play in the Flex or replace Gates if he continues to struggle

time will tell!!

Sorry mate, both Bennett and Hawkins went to me on waivers. Was surprised Bennett made it to me week 2 TBH.

OK well you can hold on to Jennings then mate.

Nah not really lol , i have no need for Cam as i have Cutler and Stafford

I lost the first 6 last year and finished as league runner up... mainly because I snagged DeMarco Murray off waivers and got lucky on a trade for Tony Romo... it's still all to play for!

Lineups are only set if a given player in your team actually starts to play a game. Thus, as of 2moro you are still free to do what you like with any positions that you didn't fill with a Raven or a Brown (lol!).

Thanks Dave, I realised last night that I was without an elligible tight end so I've reshuffled and got Dallas Clark in. As a makeshift move.

I desperately need a new RB though!

TM Moot wrote:Hah, just seen i'm predicted to bag 145 points!!

as expected, Rice bags a monster 9.60 points

Joe Flacco got me 22.64

Could have done with a couple more touchdown throws but the rushing TD was a nice surprise. Feeling better about sticking him in over Cam now.

even the Ravens D only got me 12 points...against the Browns at home in the rain

I dropped Finley for Pita as he has been scoring good points over the last 3 weeks and this week he scores 0

Flacco has gotten you off to a good score there. I do now wish you had started Cam Cam.

Barney92 wrote:Flacco has gotten you off to a good score there. I do now wish you had started Cam Cam.

Turns out I should have done - he scored more than 30 points.

I can't believe I won a game. Roddy White, and Michael Turner...take a bow guys.

nowas abears fan i need them to win bit with out Marshall getting any yardage
as if he does ive pretty much lost

Do you reckon your O-Line will be able to keep DeMarcus Ware off of Cutler? If not then you probably have a good shot, plus the Cowboys secondary has improved too.

I have Robbie Gould as my kicker but I think my game is over and Barney can't score any more points.

Need Marshall to get me 14 points tonight but don't like his chances against Dallas! Regretting my decision to play Daniel Thomas over Steven Jackson and need to start playing Fitzpatrick over Rivers, he has been awful so far!

Ah you fairly destroyed me there. What a week to be facing Turner and White.

holding onto a 6.3 point lead over Bradfords Steaming Rams with only his kicker still to play... gonna be close

Really poor week for me this week and doesn't look like it'll get much better tbh! QBs and WRs both too inconsistent

I gotta laugh. I'm sitting there last night thinking I need RGIII to have a good game but Garcon to have a stinker, and what happens? RGIII coughs it up for Garcon to nab himself a TD! Damn I got lucky on the rest of the night, especially leaving CJ on the bench! Now is this a 1 week wonder or is CJ back for good?

And what was I thinking doubting the 49ers D. OK it was the Jets, but 27 points in any week is damned fine.

Was a pretty close game, congrats on the win skins.

Had my lowest points total by far this week, expected more out of Steve Johnson and Bennett was hurt by the Giants OL failure to pass protect which meant he was used more as a blocker.

27 points from a D is pretty spectacular, the Ravens D are only getting me 10-12 most weeks...

luckliy for me my opponent this week had the Jets D, who only managed 1 point which allowed me to clinch a close win by 3 points

That was close! The Marshall TD in the 4th quarter last night got me the win!

i might allow Stafford to leave depending on offers
