Your defenses, as well as WRs, leave a lot to be desired... Scour the FA List!

The Packers D has been very good to me so far.

Suit yourself, but a gem can be found every week in Defense! For example, I picked up SD for this week because of the matchup and got 25 pt!

There's usually a decent D and K lying around in the depths of FA somewhere, because people tend to neglect those positions. Kai Forbath and SD come to mind.

So did I in the league I don't have the Pack.

[flaccopoe]

So glad I traded Demaryius Thomas for Doug Martin! He's unleashing his inner Gale Sayers and gets better every game!

[flaccopoe]

There are a lot of exciting players on Waivers this week! Carson Palmer, T.Y. Hilton, Marcell Reece, Isaac Redman, Brian Hartline, Brandon Myers, Joquie Bell.... I have a lot of decisisons to make this week!

[flaccopoe]

I'm about to cut my last Raven, Torrey Smith, for Carson Palmer. Makes me kind of sad... if only I could've drafted Rice!

[Free Agent]

Okay. Im faced with a difficult dilemna. A guy offered me Rob Gronkowski for Trent Richardson. I want to take it, because Gronk is pretty much guaranteed points, while Richardson has been somewhat hit or miss for a fantasy RB1.

My RBs:
Richardson
Reggie Bush
Felix Jones
Pierre Thomas
Marcel Reece

My TEs:
Owen Daniels
Dennis Pitta

Advice?

No. You need Richardson as your RB corps is pretty weak. Daniels isnt Gronk but he is still a top 6-7 TE.

Please, someone read this out. Need some opinions...

So I just traded a 6th round pick for the Seahawks defense.

In my league defenses score alot. This week I was going to start the Bears D vs the Texans on Sunday night, but wasn't really comfortable about it...it's so hard to bench them, and I still feel they will finish top 5 this week.

7 team league, 4 teams make the playoffs. Right now I'm 5-3 and I'm facing a tough team thats 3-4. When the season started and I looked at this matchup I had no hope I would win it. I feel 2 more wins might get me in the playoffs, so I made this trade for numerous reasons.

1. Seahawks at Home vs the Jets. (only concern is Jets coming off a bye).
2. Week 14 the Seahawks face the Cardinals at home. I play the boy who I just traded with that week, and I wasn't feeling to good about that matchup, but now I feel better. (Even though Bears @ Vikings isn't a bad matchup). - So now I feel better about that week.
3. Playoff schedule. There were no good defensive matchups week 15 that I could of got, and I feel this ones the best. Seahawks @ Bills. I'm iffy about it since it's not in Seattle, but it's alot better then Bears vs Packers. (Plus I have Rodgers).

This week I have Big Ben and Tannehill playing since Rodgers & RG3 are on byes. He has Romo & Stafford. I'm not to sure about this game, but I think the Seahawks give me a better chance to win then the Bears, what do you guys think?

Week 11 I have a bye, and week 12 I believe is a virtual lock for me to win. My teams been the best this season, even though I don't have the best record. (Every game I played was winnable, and I lost one by 2 points, the other by 5, and the other by 16[only because Ortan came in, scored touchdown vs Bears D a few weeks ago]). -Most points by alot, and most points scored against me. (In 2 of my losses I had the second highest score. )

I don't know why I'm typing all this out, but I just want someones opinion, I'm dying for it lol. I'm in full fantasy mode right now.

Also, I traded Turner and a 3rd, for Forte and a 5th and 10th earlier in the year, so right now my draft picks are 1,2,4,5,5,7,8,9,10,10,11.

Thanks to anyone who read all this haha

Go for it! You have plenty of depth at RB, while your TEs are laughable. Richardson's too unreliable anyway, as you pointed out.

Good defenses! Way to plan ahead fro the playoffs too. Make sure you tackle any deficiencies now, whether it be TE, W/R or K.

Thank ya, and I'm good at everything beside WR. I'm still holding out hope Nicks comes back, Jennings has been cut but I might loo at picking him up later. Probably not though. So I'm riding it out with Wallace,Cobb, & Nicks.

At TE I got Gronk,Miller, and Daniels lol. I'm dropping Daniels to make room for Seahawks in trade, I just picked up Miller earlier today because I got Big Ben and the person I face has Hernandez. I didn't want him to use him vs me, and Aaron might be out.

At K I have the worse luck, WORST luck. Last week was the first time all season I had a kicker score me more than 8 points. If I wouldn't have dropped Tynes a week early and played him instead of the other one I had I would have 2 more wins. Right now I got Patriots Kicker, I also got Ridley and Gronk so I'm not sure how I feel about that. I got a lot of Steelers and Patriots on my team but no Ravens. :/ lol

Might I suggest Kai Forbath, kicker for the Redskins? He scores an average of 8.5 pt, having notched up 10, 11, 6 and 7 pt in his 4 starts. He has yet to miss a FG and he'll resume posting double-digit performances once RG3 gets back on his horse.

I like him but I want to see a little more fro him first. Zuerlien,Tucker,Akers are all still available and I feel any of them are safer then him.

What the ?! Don't trade Welker for Rice. He has upcoming matchups against BUF, IND, MIA, and JAC! Contrary to popular belief, Welker's had a good season, for a WR2. He's scored in double digits 4 times. Rice, and Seahawks in general, are too unreliable. Their schedule's tougher in terms of defense, too.

Oh, why'd you even ask then?! Ray Rice is a top 5 RB! He's far better than both Welker and Myers, so make the trade immediately!

depends on the scoring format and your team

in standard I would probably do it.

In ppr probably not.

[Gordo52]

If your getting Rice then don't hesitate to do that. There should be no reason of doubt to not make that trade confidently

[SecretAgentMan]

He offered me
Rice
Givens
Eli
Steve Johnson
For
Welker
Big Ben
Myers.
Thoughts??????

[SecretAgentMan]

If I accept, I have Arod coming back next week, and will give Eli to a team that has Luck as thier starting QB.
