Is Aaron Rodgers ever gonna return to his old self? I lost Big Ben for a few weeks, only have Bortles on my bench. The Rodgers owner contacted me about a trade but I'm just worried he's gonna keep on sucking.

I doubt he'll have problems with the Bears this week.

I really need some advice. Half-point PPR with multi-year contracts.

 

I've been offered Rob Gronkowski ($24mm @ 1 years remaining) and two 1st round picks for Lamar Miller ($23mm @ 1 year remaining) and Jimmy Graham ($500k contract year).

 

Graham has been my best pick and allowed me to deal off Jordan Reed in a Dez Bryant deal. I have the following RBs on the roster:

 

Carlos Hyde (likely out this week)

Christine Michael

Jay Ajayi

Knile Davis

Jacquizz Rodgers

 

I know I'd be dealing off Miller at peak value, but that workhorse role has been somewhat reliable if not spectacular. Jimmy Graham has been wonderful, and I truly believe is the #3 TE ROS behind Gronk and Reed. He does not have the elite touchdown potential that Gronk has. He has, however, already had his BYE week which Gronk has not.

 

What say you, Soxtalk?

Should I bench Jordan Howard tonight for Jacquizz Rodgers???

 

Never would have thought I'd ask that a month ago.

Yeah I have the option of Jackson or Chris Thompson for my 2nd RB this week. Kind of going back and forth on what to do lol.

How valuable are first round picks in your league?

Going out on a limb and picked up Packers WR/RB Ty Montgomery for tonight's game and dropped Pierre Garcon, and am starting him now that Lacy is out.

126 yards on 10 catches and 9 carries. Boooyah.

 

Too bad Meredith sucked.

Did the same thing. Sitting pretty with him and Rodgers performance even though Jordan Howard is slipping on me.

Uhh yup, yes you should.

 

Glad I could help!

Need advice on a trade:

 

My RB: Freeman, Forte, Ware, Bernard, M. Jones, TJ Yeldon, Devonate Booker

My WR: Jones, Cobb, Steve Smith, T. Smith

 

I need a WR.

 

Was offered Moncrief and Julius Thomas for Gio Bernard

 

PPR, My TE is Jordan Reed

Get Thomas outta there and get something else back.

My thinking exactly. He offered Djax and Fleener instead but idk about that.

Edited by staxx

Should I make this trade?

 

He gets - Matt Stafford

 

I get - Amari Cooper

 

 

My #1 QB is Tom Brady, so Stafford is my backup. 10 team league, and my best WR right now is....Doug Baldwin and Will Fuller?

Your league makes me sad.

Ok, so anyway, should I make the trade or what?

Ok, thanks.

I sat Ajayi for McCoy. I probably still would have lost had I started Ajayi instead. My opponent's team went wild.

Fantasy football sucks this year.

Last minute I swapped out Seattle Defense for Bill's Defense. Thought Bill's D would hawk a few balls from Tannehill. Nope. Bills D got me -1.5. Seattle's D is at 11 by halftime. A 12.5 pt swing. I'm projected to lose by 10. :angry:

7-0

6-1

Only one stinker in there, I can live with it.

Too many leagues for me.

 

I cut to just 1. Means more. Too bad Dez is hurt and Wilson sucks.

Currently 5-2 in my big money league. Just traded Matt Forte, Mike Wallace and Jacob Tamme for Alshon Jeffery, Coby Fleener, and Zach Ertz. Only 4 teams make the playoffs and I'm in 3rd. This is my current team. 2 QB league with big play bonus points and PPR

WR TY Hilton

WR Alshon Jeffery

TE Coby Fleener

FLEX Melvin Gordon

DEF Broncos

K Mike Nugent

 

Bench
