Good luck with that, you'll have to put a waiver claim in. I doubt your 1st with your win and all the transactions you've made.

I already have a claim in for him as well.

[Wacko4Zacko]

Well that sucks. I guess Ill go after Legedu Naane

[AwakenTheDemon]

I don't think Jackson is going to reach nine or ten on the waiver order, Pu and Wacko lol

[Wacko4Zacko]

Well patriots traded Maroney to Broncos.

So whoever has him, I guess its either bad or good news for you.

[Romo Ravens]

What's with all this hype on Jackson? Don't get me wrong, I want him, and I know he plays the Bills, but will he put up huge numbers?

Why? Why, why, why, why, why?

I have Moreno in my money league. Can't they just let the kid be a stud?

[Wacko4Zacko]

I dont know, but what fantasy effect does this have on the old veteran Fred Taylor?

He isn't a special talent and probably won't put up huge numbers but he's on a team with a high-powered passing attack which will open rushing lanes and he's a good pass-catching RB too.

None. Maroney has never been a favorite of the coaching staff. Taylor will continue to share touches with Morris and Faulk.

Well according to ESPN, I am 4th on the waiver wire. Still probably won't make it. But I don't think the waiver wire goes in reverse order of standings.

He's a starting RB on a passing O. Surely you must have some bench fodder which Jackson is better than.

In Romo's ESPN league? Because I checked earlier and Wacko is 9th, and you're 10th.

You're right it says now I'm 10 out of 10. This afternoon it said I was 4th. Probably doesn't reset until Tuesday Afternoon.

Well that does make more sense.

[Wacko4Zacko]

So I can get Brandon jackson before PURock!? or not at all?

You're 9th on the waiver list, so unless everyone else passes on him, you're chances of landing Jackson are slim. But you can land him before Pu can. We'll find out tomorrow who has him.

Bye-bye Donald Brown, hello Jackson lol

How's Mike Vick doing against the Lions? Contemplating picking him up in my two QB money league and replacing him with Freeman against CAR

[XxSizzleXx]

Starting Vick against DET as opposed to Freeman vs CAR would be a very smart move.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Well, I walked away with Eddie Royal, Brandon Jackson, Fred Taylor, and (not surprising) the Carolina D/ST this week on waivers. Surprised I got Jackson, seeing as Battle Hamster's were #1 on the waiver and have Ryan Grant, but hey. I won't complain. Now I have the edge on Wacko on every position but TE. But hey, that's only in projections and we all know how much those mean (Jackson is unproven, while Schaub and Gore were huge letdowns for me last week for example). Regardless, I'm feeling pretty confident.

[Wacko4Zacko]

Hope is declining.

Looks like ATD won the sweepstakes for Jackson. ATD, what order were you on the waiver wire? Did people let him go before you?

Mike Vick if starting is a great start against the Lions. I'd start Vick over Brady (vs. Jets) this week. He should post up some good run and pass stats. On a side note, I'm not ready to give up on Brown. This will be the second season, I am waiting for a Addai injury.

[AwakenTheDemon]

I was number 2 on the wire. The only person above me had Ryan Grant on his team, so I figured I wouldn't get a crack at him.

That annoys me. Sounds like we might have an abandoner. Ryan Grant and #1 on the waiver wire should be a given.

You got a break even @ #2. I was number 2 in my money league, and thought the guy before me might sleep. And ofcourse not.

[AwakenTheDemon]

It's okay though lol None of my wanted players in my other league got to me (I was aiming at Jackson and Lloyd from Denver for depth). Got stuck with Hillis in one league and Julius Jones in another. Oh well, both are upgrades over Sammy Morris.

[Romo Ravens]

Yea that's a good point PuRock, ed.s52 better be paying attention, or I can always change owners. Wow ATD, nice pickups. I got Michael Vick haha, but I think Cutler should be able to get me better points against Dallas.

As for the trade Wacko, I'm not sure about it lol. What insurance do I have if Turner were to go down, in which case, there's a possibility every game.

I'm stoked for this week. I have Romo against the Bears, Jamaal Charles against the Browns, Moreno against the Seahawks and Andre Johnson against Washington.

How's Rice doing this week agains the Bengals run D? I need him to show up.

Is it a trade proposal? I'm kinda scared to see what type of hosing on Wacko will be going down.

Haha no.. it's just a poll. However, Wacko did send me a trade yesterday. Mark Clayton and Owen Daniels for Snelling and Aromashadu. I declined that in a second.
