I know i kinda brought this upon my self, but Its getting humiliating that my team is center of discussion. Its only my 2nd year, this is not how I wanted it to be. Last year I did do no trades becuase it was my first year and that was bad year, this time I wanted to do trades, and its only been for the worse again.

Everybody.. right now we are having a vote. Who has the best team (you can't vote yourself) I vote Team Tre, but he beat Lowrider by a nose.

So we have: Tre, Lowrider, Tre

2-1

Team Tre is good. They got some big names. But Manning might sit again like he did last year during fantasy playoffs (but he does have Big Ben as a good backup), and we will see how Fitzy does with Matt Leinhart. Colston is a good number but very inconsistent. Had him last year. So many weapons in NO that sometimes he gets forgotten, which is a bad thing about Pierre Thomas too.

I like Team Saoud too. Being deep at rb is more important than being deep at wr. Theres always a wr on free agency that shows up that no one thought they would. But Saoud needs flacco to play well.

Team Tre is the winner for me. Overall balanced and stacked in a lot of positions.

Thats why I'm trading for Rivers, once it gets passed, I thought it would put me over the top.

And if V-Jax for Antonio Bryant works, my trade should be just fine.

I agree with both of those trades for you. You gotta hope V-jax comes back for dual reasons then. For Rivers, and so you have a solid wide receiver.

I didnt trade for V-Jax, I'm just saying that if that trade was considered "fair", than my trade should be just fine, and you should bank on me having Rivers.

I did some research.

If T.O. goes to Bengals, who ever has Ochocinco should expect thier value to drop and poinst to not be as much as expected. With T.O. working out with carson individually, Carson may have a favorite target.

Seahawks RB Justin Forsett also wont get many carries because of the 3 headed monster pete carroll ahs installed into the 'Hawks offense. Jones, Forsett, Washington all will get split carries.

Also Raiders signed LaMarr Houston. The signing make the Raiders defense a little more tempting to draft.

The Ocho will still be the favorite target. He knows Carson better. If anything I think it will give the Ocho more value because teams can't double team him.

The Raiders defense will still be bad because they will have to be on the field a lot because the offense sucks.

Jets have interest in T.O. if he goes there, how does that effect thier recieving game? Santonio Holmes, Braylon Edwards, Jerricho Cotchery, Dustin Keller, and now maybe T.O.

Santonio is supended for 4 games, So does he maybe lose his starting job for full season to T.O. ? I have Holmes on my team and if T.O. does go to Jets, then having Holmes may not be effective for my team.

EDIT:
LR I messaged you.

Jets have like a 20% chance of getting T.O. Don't look too far into it

He's not going to the Jets. There are too many skilled guys on the team and not enough ball to go around. When it comes down to it, are the Jets really going to pay all this money to someone that just isn't going to get the ball enough on a run-first team? no.

He'll be the #2 in Bengals. It makes the most sense with Bryant's knee still in question.

Wacko, I'm already trading for Rivers, Slaton won't start, and Welker is likely to start the season on the PUP list.

So, basicly, not even close

I personally think that trades should be limitless. I dont like the whole 3 strikes and your out

I agree. Its fair but also unfair

I hate to be a stickler, but I really don't think that trade is fair. Like Pu said, Flacco has the 31st hardest schedule for QB's fantasy wise. Jacobs is a threat, but it seems as if the Giants will be going from a running team to a passing team with Steve Smith and Hakeem Nicks, and Jacobs is consistently hurt. Fred Jackson on the other hand is part of a RBBC with CJ Spiller in front of him, and nobody should sleep on Beast Mode.

It's basically a Joe Flacco for Philip Rivers trade, in which case, the trade is not fair. Rivers is with the upper-echelon of QB's in this league, namely in the top 5-7, while Flacco is just peaking. I'd have to think about it.

Sorry I thought I voted on that trade. Anyways I just vetoed that trade.

Rivers > Flacco
Jacobs > F Jackson

I did some research.

If T.O. goes to Bengals, who ever has Ochocinco should expect their value to drop and points to not be as much as expected. With T.O. working out with carson individually, Carson may have a favorite target.

Using that logic every defense is more tempting to draft. Suh makes the Lions defense more tempting, Eric Berry makes the Chiefs defense more tempting to draft, Derrick Morgan makes the Titans defense worthy of drafting. I don't think is Houston is going to have much of an impact unlike his rookie team mate Rolando McClain where McClain will help better the Oakland defense over Houston, plus the Raiders signed John Henderson to a 1 year deal.

Seeing all the activity going on of Trades, players coming & going off teams, I will say this should be a very interesting League.

It isnt that unfair, Flacco isnt that bad.

Like I said about the V-Jax trade, It's fair enough to be allowed, since like Romo said, you can't base everything off past production.
