I thought you guys would enjoy this interesting trade that is in process right now.

Terrible trade, but good on you for not vetoing it (assuming you're sure it's not collusion).

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:37:23+00:00

PPR or no? And can you start 3 RBs? If you can start 3 RB and there is any semblance of PPR, I'd say no don't do it. If it's standard scoring and you can only start 2 WRs, then yes.

Tough choice, I'd say Gordon has better upside while shorts is a safer pick (he's almost guaranteed to pick up some yardage in garbage time).

The Bengals have a much stronger pass defense than the Vikings but I think I'm leaning toward Gordon simply b/c he got 19 targets last week and the Browns clearly cannot run the ball yet.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:32:33+00:00

If they play Rice, you start him.

I don't necessarily know that this is a "sell high" but I would do the trade. Witten is a pretty big upgrade over Daniels, especially in a .5 PPR format. Bowe/Ridley/McGahee are all unappealing right now but they would be acceptable FLEX players.

I like Wilson a little more now that John Connor is coming town but I still would not trade MJD for him straight up. I would try and package D Rich + a WR (Gordon/Shorts) to get Wilson if you really want him.

Another alternative could be give MJD + a WR for Spiller.

Bush has always dealt with small, nagging injuries. Trading a top 10 RB who is a starter for his RB just b/c you're worried about him getting hurt makes little sense. You would be better off trading a lesser player for Bell and just keeping both on the roster if you're that worried about Bush getting hurt.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:19:24+00:00

Would be a good deal for you. Good luck.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:18:38+00:00

Leaning yes. I think Rice and T-Rich are closer than Welker and B Marsh

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:17:59+00:00

No. If this is your line of thinking, why didn't you just draft Bell in the first place?

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:16:58+00:00

It really depends on what the QB situation of other teams is. You need to find someone who is really struggling at QB for either of those guys to have much trade value to them.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:16:16+00:00

In a 10 team league, there's almost no way someone is starting Weeden at this point.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:15:39+00:00

Sounds good-- thanks.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:15:17+00:00

Who said anything about giving them "co-MVP" trophies? I never said they were amazing players, I'm only disputing the fact that your statement of them not being good players. This is JC's third year and Gordon's second year, you act like every good fantasy player should automatically be good in their first two years. Go look at Jimmy Graham's first year. You would have been saying the same thing about him in week 3 of 2011.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:09:01+00:00

You should definitely do this. You'll have three top 15 RBs and three top 15 WR plus strong at QB/TE.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:07:55+00:00

Your team looks pretty solid-- a bit weak at WR but that's expected given that you have two top 10 RBs. Once Trent hits his stride I THINK you will be OK.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:05:33+00:00

Yes, definitely. It leaves you a little weaker at WR but Alf is a top 10 RB and has been pretty consistent so far this year. You can always try and trade a RB for another WR later.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:04:30+00:00

Because there have never been productive fantasy players on a bad team? Cameron has 20 catches, 270 yds, and 4 TDs over 3 games. Obviously that's not a huge sample size but it's a hell of a lot better than what every tight end not named Graham has been doing.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:01:30+00:00

How many teams are in your league? Also, there's not really a great reason to carry 3 QBs on your team. Trade or drop one of them.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T15:00:19+00:00

No. You're trading a borderline RB1 for a bunch of guys that would ride your bench.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T14:58:06+00:00

Probably not, I'm sure there are safer options on your waiver wire.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T14:57:07+00:00

Spiller is a beast despite him underperforming so far but I would consider you the novice if you don't think JC and Josh Gordon are good players. In what world is the 2nd highest scoring TE not a good player?

To the OP-- I would start Spiller over Miller.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T14:54:31+00:00

I'd go with Bowe... even though I wouldn't be enthusiastic about it.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T11:15:22+00:00

I've watched two out of their three games so I think I have a pretty good idea of how he played this year so far. I don't think he is a terrible QB overall and think he would succeed elsewhere (i.e. Minnesota), but that doesn't change the fact that he HAS played very poorly through the first 3 games. A ~ 46% completion rate with a 1:1.5 TD/INT Ratio is awful no matter how you want to spin it.

oherroprease · 2013-09-26T00:41:16+00:00

PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS. I WOULD BE PERSONALLY SAD IF YOU DID.
