.Hugo.i cant wait until i play you
.MASSHOLE.Should I start Keenan Allen against the NYJ or Emmanuel Sanders against the Cardinals...
Granite_StateI'd start Allen just knowing the Cardinals D is undefeated.
Forcillohahahaha I feel bad for anyone who played Brady this week
I_liketobutterFuck man.
I'm undecided. Should I drop him? I gotta pick one up on waivers. Should I go:
Eli (cringe)
Flacco (ugh)
Smith (??)
Dalton (??)
Bridgewater (I'm a Vking fan, total homer pick, but maybe not really???)
Or my coworker wants to trade me Gronk and Cutler for Graham. I don't want to give up Graham
KravtZWhat people think about Bernard Pierce? Give him another shot next week? Had 0 points this week and I don't really think he was that bad
.Hugo.The ravens have 3 backs that they play. Until they name one as the man thats going to get the most touches id find it hard to play any of them
BakerpowI'd pick up Eli, he plays Atlanta...and the offense is coming together. They barely ran the ball am tore te redskins apart. And that's honestly not a bad trade IMO
Bakerpowmontee ball at rb 2 instead of asiata? or keep asiata and play ball or crabtree at flex?
.Hugo.I like asiata. No matter if its bridgewater or ponder, the vikings are going to run the ball and/or utilize a lot of short passes. It also kinda seemed like the vikings didnt really trust bridgewater throwing in the red zone, so he has that going for him too
ForcilloSo I have a few things to tinker with... I've got Julio Jones as my mainstay wide receiver, and Murray and Forte as my top 2 RB's. The players I have left are Asiata, Kelvin Benjamin, and Roddy White. Which receiver should I start, then who should I put on flex after that? I'm thinking Asiata at flex and Benjamin on WR2, but White was solid last game.
Forcillooh I completely forgot, I have Arian Foster as well.
.MASSHOLE.Running back conundrum right now:
RB1-Lynch
RB2-Martin or Gore?
Flex-Gore/Martin or Asiata OR Martellus Bennett (CHI TE)
If I can pick up Mckinon I will have even more of an issue down the road.
cornholiowho is your other TE if you're considering bennett at flex?

.MASSHOLE.J. Thomas.
cornholiorb2 martin (or asiata, flip a coin)
flex bennett
long term i would try and package bennett and martin/gore/asiata for a more elite rb in a trade. there's got to be someone who needs a TE in your league.
.MASSHOLE.Unfortunately, the two teams who need a good TE are unwilling to trade their "elite" RBs. One team has Le'Veon Bell and Shady McCoy but he won't trade anyone on his team while the other only has Murray as an RB. Still, I offered both Martin and Bennett for them.
It is a shame AP is out, makes premium scoring RBs much more valuable.
cornholioyeah bummer. i'd try to beat up on the guy for mccoy again and give him a bunch of shit about how mccoy isn't even that good. maybe plant a seed so he'll come around to a trade in a few days. really build up your end about how they're getting the whole benefit while you're taking a huge risk..

KravtZAlright heres the deal...
Im in last place in my league diong horrible 0-4 right now.
My team is :
Peyton
AJ Green
Malcom Floyd
Eric Decker
Bernard Pierce
Jason Witten
Khiry Robinson
(starting lineup)
Larry Fitz
Knowshon
Kirk Cousins
Devante Adams
Allen Hurns
I have a trade offer for AJ green for Asiata....is it worth this trade? I think I could replace AJ with either fitzgerald or adams who is on the rise

DockEllisAbsolutely not. AJ is elite, Asiata is coming off a big game, but the Vikings are working Mckinnon in and there is still a chance AP comes back after his court date in October. You have Knowshon who is saying he could return after their bye this week, but you still need an RB, maybe counter with Decker of Floyd, but you would be getting robbed giving up AJ.
I_liketobutterI come to you again NS for advice.
RB's
Ball - Arizona
Vereen - Cincinnati
Miller (Bye)
McKinnon @ GB
I just picked up McKinnon on Waivers last night. I'm a viking fan and know about mckinnon and our running style. He will get touches and does have some serious big play potential. Sure they played atlanta last week, but GB's defense isn't significantly better
Meanwhile Ball isn't doing shit this year and Vereen is hit or miss. I'm not going to get rid of them yet, but who should I start this week? My flex is taken care of. PPR
DockEllisBall, he's guaranteed the work load vs Vareen who you have no idea what to expect. Plus in that offense he has a shot to cap off a drive with a TD on any given possession. True, he's off to a slow start, but he'll get his, stick with him.
I_liketobutterForgot to say 2 RB's starting, so you think Ball and McKinnon? That's kinda what I was thinking
.MASSHOLE.Would you start Asiata or Mckinon if you have the option?
theBearJewStill can't believe I missed winning this week by the cheifs not getting 7 more total yards. Couldn't have had one more run for a first down...
BakerpowThis is my dilemma too. He has said Asiata is still the starter and McKinnon is only a change of pace back. But it is obvious McKinnon is the better runner.

thelineGarcon v. Seattle or Quick v. Philly?
Both have good secondaries, but Garcon is coming off a down week and Quick has been pretty consistent.
I keep flipping em.
BakerpowAs a flex or wr2? As a Seattle fan I see the redskins getting dominated up front and cousins not having much time to make big plays
thelineFlex.
I'm leaning towards Washington's TDs coming from Morris as opposed to their WRs.
.Hugo.you mean helu? morris does all the work and helu gets all the glory of the tds. pisses me off
thelineMorris has been a workhorse for me. I've been starting him every week and got to 3-1. He gets at least 75 yards a game and gets fairly frequent TDs.
.Hugo.I have him too, he has 3 tds this year and 2 of them came the week helu was out... If they are on the goal line helu takes away tds from morris, thats not even debatable.
