call me crazy, but i just traded randy moss for antonio gates in my ff league. the last two weeks just pissed me off to no end. two weeks in a row i lost by less than 10 points, 2 weeks in a row i started randy moss when i could have started another wr that would have made up the points.

i cant wait to see the 49ers beat the patriots in two weeks.
 
I wouldnt call you crazy. I say unload as many Pats players as you can. With Cassell at the helm it might be fucking weeks before he gets in tune with the offense. You cant relay on that.

Though I will call your crazy as hell for trading him for busted up fucking Gates. Thats a horrid trade. Gates is already hurt and can be hurt again at anytime...he has also lost a good 3 or 4 steps and people are covering him easy. The game last night he was thrown to like 6 times and only caught 2 with jets defenders being all over him.

Only plus is that he is a like a number 2 red zone target. But overall I think that was a really bad trade.



On to me. I really need to find some more WR and quick. I also need a damn TE that will actually catch more than 1 pass a game.

Right now I am trying to make a trade for Larry Fitzgerald by trading Wes Welker, Roy Williams, Marvin Harrison. I think all 3 will be worthless this year and I hope I can snag a good WR while their stock is still up. Also someone dropped Chad Johnson...should I pick him up just beacuse?

Damn...lost my game by .14 points. I honestly never knew stats didn't count on the two-point conversion, otherwise I would've had another sack and an interception and won my game (With San Diego's D).

Yea I would pick Ocho up if you have soem space open or you can drop someone shitty to get him. The bengals offense will most liekly be back to it's usualy ways soon. They started to look way better Sunday against a strong Giants Defense. I can see Ocho doing big things soon.

I would say even with Gates being banged up, he still could end up having a better season than moss. If he gets closer to 100% anytime soon expect more balls thrown his way, especially with Chambers picking up the slack. I would say gates for the chargers is still the #1 option for the Chargers in the RZ when it comes to throwing the ball, with Chambers being a close #2.

I agree. But I feel that the appeal of Moss should of warranted someone with no doubts.

I am just saying that he probably could have gotten someone a lot more consistent than Gates when trading Moss. I also think that Gates will have a better season but I think he could have gotten a little more out of it.
 
[quote name='GuilewasNK']I still don't see how Matt Millen keeps his job. His must have nude pics of the oner's wife or something.[/QUOTE]

Well, Bill Ford Jr finally came out and said that Millen should be fired, although it is Daddy's call...and senior is probably a bit senile.

nate burleson and deion branch are both expected back for week 5 and are probably on your waiver wire

Burleson is out for the season. I'm sure you meant Bobby Engram.
 
For you fantasy people....a few KEY moves:

- Steve Slaton named "full-time" starter
- Marc Bulger benched for Trent Green
- Willie Parker out MONDAY....pick up Mendenhall ASAP!
 
[quote name='v1et r1ce']Anyone think I should dump Harrison yet? He's just sitting on my bench. I got him very late hoping he would break out.[/QUOTE]

Depends, who would you dump him for? You never know when you MIGHT need him. He is basically the 3rd/4th option it seems these days....but I have a feeling Indy will break out eventually.
 
[quote name='doubledown']Depends, who would you dump him for? You never know when you MIGHT need him. He is basically the 3rd/4th option it seems these days....but I have a feeling Indy will break out eventually.[/QUOTE]

Agreed. It's not just Harrison that is struggling. It's the whole team.
 
I feel you though. I have Marvin on my team as well and actually I think I am just going to let the guy go. He has such a decreased role in the offense now its becoming a burden to have him.

If he couldnt go for broke with Clark being out I dont see him all of a sudden getting more looks now that Clark is back.

Also, dont plan on anyone actually trading for him, there are enough good to great WR that are doing well in the league to go around. Thats the thing about WR, you dont need the biggest name to be effective with them. Deseaon Jackson has been killing people for me.

I say if you dont have the room (like me) drop his ass and move on. At least get a more consistent player at the postion.
 
Here is something a guy in my league wants some WR.

I am going to offer Roy Williams, Marvin Harrison and one running back for his Reggie Bush.

Which running back should I offer. Matt Forte or Brandon Jacobs or hell even Willi Parker.

I still have Fred Taylor waiting in the wings and with Gerrad not playing well him and MJD are going to get a steady diet of rushes.
 
YAY! GOOD BYE MATT.


Now lets see who they bring in...knowing the Lions they will bring in a guy who is as dumb as him anyway.
 
Until Ford Sr. becomes worm meat I doubt much will change.

you're giving up way too much for Bush. Your essentially giving up 3 number 2s for one number 2 (Bush is too inconsistent to be considered a number one RB)

agreed, make the trade just one of your WRs and only jacobs, then its worth it.
 
Finally. What a great day in Detroit. Millen is finally outta here. Now we need Ford Jr to take over from daddy. Then shit will finally turn around. I feel like a new man.
 
i am last in my league in point scoring (0-3 record)

jesus i suck

I m thinking of benching derek anderson this week and starting trent edwards. Also plaxico was suspended so another star down. Picked up hilliard as a replacement. Someone beat me to getting lloyd or stuckey
 
What? Roy Wiliams and Marvin Harrison wont do a damn thing this year. Having Bush will increase my already mighty point total by 25 even with his up and down play. Also you guys seem to forget that Marvin and Williams are completely up and down as well. And I guess I forgot to mention that just one of my starting WR has more points than all of them combined.

SLEEPERS BABY!!! ALL ABOUT THEM SLEEPERS!

I dont go by hope. Either your produce or you dont. Williams and Marvin havent and will not produce this year so having them is a waste. They haven't played once for me this year and I am 3 and 0 winning by at least 20 points each game.

I have matt forte, Willi Parker, Brandon Jacobs and Fred Taylor at RB. I am basically giving up Jacobs for Bush beacuse I wouldnt even play Harrison or Williams in the first place.

Pfft. Your talking to the FF king here. I have won the last 4 in a row. Hell I am undefeated right now winning by 20 points each game AND I DIDNT EVEN DRAFT MY OWN TEAM! (I had to work during the draft they drafted for me and trust me they tried to screw the shit out of me. I basically had to drop 90% of my team and pikc up people from FA)
 
[quote name='guyver2077']give me some tips ff king (or anyone)..!! this is my lineup for week 4

Edwards, Trent QB BUF
James, Edgerrin RB ARI
Taylor, Fred RB JAC
Hilliard, Ike WR
Jackson, DeSean
Johnson, Andre WR HOU
Miller, Heath TE PIT
Gould, Robbie K CHI
DST, Dallas DAL[/quote]


Here is my advice you have to find out who is doing the best out of the FA in your league. Its not always about the big names. In fact big names mean jack shit its about who is producing whether its for one week then you drop them or for long term.

This is what a lot of people do wrong in FF. You have to look beyound just a big name and find people who are actually scoring points for you in your league. Dont get attached to people and let them string you along week to week while not doing anything. There are always guys in FA who are really good but never get picked up. Check and see how many yards and TD a person has.

Guys that I picked up from FA in my league after the draft (remeber I didnt draft myself)

Brandon Marshell (caught for 155 and 1 td)
Matt Forte (has scored 20 a game each and every game so far and 80% of the people didnt even know who he was in pre season)
Carolinas kicker (cant remember his name but he has the most points in my league so far)
Tony Shceffler (Broncos TE caught for 2 TD 2 weeks ago and is a big red zone target now for an offense that scores like 30 a game.)



(Thats why I dont care about Roy Williams and Marvin Harrison I dont care that they are number 2 guys...if they dont produce they are a waste because I have people who are producing right now they cant do anything sitting on the bench.)

Your RB core is fine and Fred Taylor is going to go off this week because they realize they can still win with the running game. Plus Gerrad is playing really bad right now so MJD and Taylor are going to get a heavy dose of runs trust me. Get rid of Ederrin james and pick up some like Chris Johnson or Matt Forte. Those guys are getting big yards and catching TD each week. Buckhealter is also going to be featured this week a lot and will be until Westbrook is back.


See if you can get a better defense than Dallas. Find one that is actually getting INT's sacks and TDs.


But DO NOT PICK UP MENNDENHALL! He will get killed this week vs the ravens. Dont be fooled. If you want pick him up and then trade him.

if marshall and forte were on the waiver wire after the draft then your league is whack

A little bit. We play for cash money so people get really attached to big names.

Me on the other hand...I would cut fucking Tom Brady if his ass was producing. :lol:
 
not too many rb's available.. Le'Ron McClain is still available.

I also had the carolina kicker but waived him this week to pick up a wr. The giants kicker though i think has outscored him.

and damn andre johnson is due a big game.. shame just a good receiver hasnt done anything all year
 
[quote name='Young Deezy']Burress needs to step up and stop acting like a little kid.[/QUOTE]

he has been stepping up ever since the 1st game of the season. He just needs to show some decency and atleast call the team and let them know he has "family" problems. Thats all the Giants were asking for, and he broke it. His fault for not pickup a tiny cellphone and speed dialing Jerry Reese or Tom Coughlin.

Great....Roscoe Parrish out 4-6 weeks. Wonder if they will put McGee back in KR or PR.
 
He did the same stuff with Pittsburgh.. the only difference was that Burress never stepped up for the big games like he is in NY.. in fact Burress had a bigger gaff than DeShean Jackson where the Steelers were playing the Titans (I think) and he caught a pass over the middle, diving, never got touched and proceeded to get up and spike the ball. A Titan picked the ball up and almost scored. Burress has always done stupid things.

Heh heh, hopefully Youtube has a clip of that, I'd love to see that
 
You know I wish i could find that clip of when Aaron Brooks threw that pass backwards like 30 yards.

Shit was funny as hell.
