2012 Fantasy Football Thread

Getting to the point where I am considering benching Drew Brees for Matt Ryan. Drew has been doing pretty well and scoring TD's, but I'm in a league that penalizes heavily for interceptions and yards lost on sacks. Brees has been hurting me with that. Matt Ryan has actually outscored Brees 2 out of 3 weeks because of all the INT's and sacks from Drew . I keep telling myself "dude, its Drew Brees. He will eventually settle down and get'er done." But I just lost two weeks in a row by less than 6 points, and I would've won both times had I started Matt Ryan...

Not sure what to do...any advice? Of course, if I do start Matt Ryan, that means that Brees will throw for 400 yards and 5 touchdowns..

I give up:
Calvin Johnson
Greg Little
Kevin Smith
Round 9 draft pick next year

I receive:
Torrey Smith
Antonio Brown
Mikel LeShoure
Round 8 pick next year

Here's the rest of my WR's, RB's
Stevie Johnson, Michael Crabtree, Jeremy Maclin,
MJD, Michael Turner, Alfred Morris


Anyone have any thoughts or advice?

No way. IMO Calvin is the only untouchable player in fantasy.

That trade youre giving away the best for 2 pretty good guys and a RB who has had 1 good game so far. No way.

Pretty sure Ryan is the #2 QB. Would be a good move IMO

Nobody is untradeable. Is he a big time contender if this trade goes through? If so, I think this is an opportunity to rape the guy. Can you post his whole roster and yours? Make a counter offer that seems way unbalanced from your side and work from there. Is this a dynasty or keeper? I would ask for one of his studs if he has any and I would want his first round pick next year, no swapping unless it is a really late pick on your part (like 15). I am sure you used your 1st on Calvin this year. You need that back plus a lot more to make it worth it.

Which RB do I bench?

McCoy vs. Giants
Martin vs. Skins
Richardson @ Ravens
Leshoure vs. Vikings

LOL...already picked up Arrelious Benn this morning

Another mixed week for the rookie.

A 136.30- 87.52 win in the ES League 2 to move to 3-0 on the year, and remain one of only two teams unbeaten through 3 weeks.

And a 94.20- 129.20 defeat in the other league to drop to 1-2 on the year.

Frustratingly mixed week as I keep losing in the other league thanks to monster weeks from opposing RB's. Last week Reggie Bush, this week Jamaal Charles.

And now the bye weeks start, it should really start to get interesting. I'm down Reggie Wayne in both leagues this week darn it. Particularly as I play whom I consider to be the top team in our ES league.

Hail.

Looking for Some RB Starter Advice - RB1, RB2, and Flex

Arian Foster
Steven Jackson
Doug Martin
Willis McGahee
Mikel LeShoure

As a side note, I'm trying to make the following trade

Give: McGahee, Desean Jackson
Get: Larry Fitzgerald

I'm in a 14 team auction league. that is we all started w/ 130.00 of fake money and FA's are awarded to the highest blind bidder. naturally in such a big league RB's are very valuable as no viable starters are on the waiver wire. My question is this. of my 130.00 how much should i bid to get Andre Brown RB for the Giants? He isn't going to go for cheap as there are alot of desperate people. in my head 30.00 is the absolute lowest i can bid and truthfully i don't think that gets it done either. If i'm bidding to win how much is too much? What is the absolute most i can bid before i've bid too much?

In a Dynasty League would you trade Foster for RGIII and Morris?

Picking up a TE off waivers today. Should I grab Kyle Rudolph or Heath Miller?

Well, after going 0-3 and making some trades, I feel much better about my team now, which will hopefully translate into some much needed W's...

Stafford, Ponder
McFadden, Bush, Leshoure and Benson
Decker, Nelson, Bowe and Jerome Simpson
Martellus Bennett

Some misguided individual decided to drop Arizona's defense, and that will help more than anything else :)

^^^
Rudolph for me...

Ok, 2 questions on who to start.

Leshore (DET) or Morris (WSH)

D. Moore (OAK) or K. Britt (TEN) or M. Williams (TB)?

Tough running defenses for both RB's this week, but I'd lean towards Leshoure.

D. Moore - Palmer is looking much better IMO...

I was thinking that of the 3 teams, NE has the best run D.

I should have played Rice, but the good thing is, I won my game because of Calvin Johnson and AJ Green.

Ok..so I asked this earlier but I need to amend it.

Of the 3, which 1 would you start...

DeAngelo Williams vs Falcons
Jacquizz Rodgers vs. Panthers
Ryan Williams vs Miami
