2018 Fuck FFB - start/sit/waivers/FA/?s

[UrbanAchiever 284]

So, waiver wire question - I have Carlos Hyde and Chris Carson. Which handcuff should I go after - Nick Chubb or Mike Davis? We have very limited bench spots, so I can only choose one.

[Baboontyme 2875]

Chubb

[MNLonghornFUKM 8963]

Le’Veon  says he’ll be back for their bye in week 7, first game 10/28 against Cle. 

News to my ears. Bell and kamara should carry me far come playoffs

Same here. I'm 2-2 without Bell so far and it took the ones who beat me to have there highest output so far this year. 

[McFly 606]

Bell and Kamara? Same team? How small is the league?

[Guest]

Chubb would be my pick on question above. Right now pickings are pretty thin. It can get very gut feeling and whim driven.

Just me and myself.

Congrats on your championship 

[Chapo 104]

Im 0-4, i was offered David Johnson for Bell.  Should I do it, i mighg be 0-7 waiting for Bell to play again.

[Redneck Mutha 8158]

Looks like Hilton is out.  Need a fill in (.5 PPR):

C Davis (@ BUF), N Hines (@ NE), R Freeman (@ NYJ)

[spystud13 2371]

Corey Davis? Gotta roll him now

I mean what do you have to lose? 

I'm definitely happy for Bell to come back if the rumors hold up since Conner hasn't done shit since Week 1, but I'm also skeptical. 

1. Hope the "source" is correct

2. They're reportedly still trying to trade him which means that lockeroom is not receptive to having him back. Those OL throwing him under the bus to the media went so far against football code there's got to be more to this story. 

3. Read this from former agent Joel Corry. If Bell suits up for PIT this is exactly what's gonna happen. Any nick...he's sitting. https://claytonfootball.redescribe.com/2018/09/what-leveon-bell-should-have-done/

I'd do it in a heartbeat if I were you.

That's a fair take. I guess I'm inclined to look at it as though Rodgers is not going to perform as the QB17 for the rest of the season. I know he's banged up a bit but I expect him to be a top 3 QB by the end of the year. And I would expect Miller to have around 1000 yds and 7/8 TDs by the end of the year, as well. If I own Breida or Lindsay I'm not sure what the hell I have in those guys. If I own Miller he's frustrating as hell as a RB2 but I know he's going to be pretty much an every down back unless Foreman is ready when he's eligible to come off of PUP. 

But whatever, I'm not upset about it or anything. I was mildly surprised.  I ran it past a couple of other folks and a few of them said they would do the deal straight up for Rodgers. 

Lamar Miller is a flex and you can basically stream QBs in a 10 team league.  Unless there is some roster detail I don't know, I auto-decline dealing a WR1 for that.

Trade Eval

Team A needs TE receives: Rob Gronkowski and Alshon Jeffery

Team B needs RB receives: Mark Ingram and T.Y. Hilton

 

[Baboontyme 2875]

A by far imo

[MNLonghornFUKM 8963]

TY Hilton is injured

 

and who knows what role Ingram will have with Kamara being the better option

 

Gronk is gronk but hes been a turd this year so far. TE is still such an important position to get 10+ points in

[Baboontyme 2875]

Another trade question for you all. I think my mind is made up not to pursue but wonder what the peanut gallery thinks. 

I think I have a pretty good team for the stretch run once Bell gets back, but my weak spot, to date, is definitely RB2 with Jordan Howard. I have no RB3 at all (Corey Clement, Chris Ivory). It is a 12 team league, very deep, PPR and TD league and you start 3 WR/TE. 

RB1 Bell/Conner, RB2 Howard, WR1 AJ Green, WR2 Alshon, WR3 Will Fuller/DJax

Someone came after Green today. I think I could pry David Johnson from him if I packaged Howard (fine by me) with Green. I would need one of his WRs in return and the options are not great - TYH (injured), Baldwin (injured), G Allison, N. Algholor (no because I have Alshon)

I don't think I pursue this. Thoughts?

injuries are part of the trade on both sides, with regard to Hilton and Gronkowski. Alshon ain't 100% either...

Other guy declined... and if he sees me at the office, he'll ask, "What else will you take for Ingram?"

That's the other thing about my approach to trades...my first offer is hardly ever the stopping point, but these yokels throw their hands up and never counter.

 

Fuck it.  I'm good with my squad and I'll just stream TE while these bastards struggle to make a lineup each week.  One dumbass still has Daniel Carlson on his roster.  Thanks for fucking up, sir.

[BERT 4488]

Pick 2 of these RBs

 

Breida vs Ari

White vs Indy

Henry vs Buf

Allen vs Cle

Hines vs NE

 

[spystud13 2371]

White for sure, & I’d probably also take a chance on Hines tonight. They’re gonna be behind, so he should catch a few. 

Derrick Henry has pissed me the fuck off this season. 

[spystud13 2371]

.5 PPR; Tevin Coleman @ Pitt or Ajayi v. Minn? 

Also have Breida v. Ari & Shady v. Tenn. Just need one of the four. 

 

Freeman is cleared for Atl. 

[Catpfish 618]

QB decision.

Have Rodgers vs Detroit, but picked Ryan (against Pitt) up a couple of weeks ago as insurance.  Rodgers is matchup proof, but do you take the hot hand?

 

 

[Anton Chigurh 3332]

Rodgers has basically no receivers right now, FWIW. Cobb has a hamstring issue, Allison is in concussion protocol, and Adams hurt his calf yesterday and he’s uncertain.

[Radical Larry 28814]

Start Sterling Sharpe, Robert Brooks, and Bubba Franks.

I think hines might get a lot of action because Indy is down a lot of options(mack,Hilton and doyle) and theyll likely be losing so Hines could see a big work load.

Id probably gamble on white being Bradys reciever of choice. But he also might give you 2 catches for 16 yards and 20 rushing yards

I've been gambling all year so far lol

[spystud13 2371]

White hasn’t had a bad game yet. 

 

*Knocks on wood. 

[ocugolf 1220]

PPR pick two:

edelman 

landry

Adrian Peterson

Royce Freeman

Dion Lewis

Thanks a lot!! Hines will probably get hurt now and I'll get to sit back and watch Henry go off on the Bills lol 

[spystud13 2371]

You do not sit Landry in PPR, period.

Henry rarely goes off on anyone.  He's not a guy I would ever have confidence in starting.  He's more like a bye week, "oh well he's better than the waiver," kinda guy. 

[kingkoopa6 8594]

T Hill or C Ridley?

 

[spystud13 2371]

Sheesh, who are you sitting? Both them dudes should start.

 Im stacked for real for real. Luck on my side with WRs 

but thats the problem, they could all go off

Hill, Tate, Ridley, Fuller, Woods 

Edited October 4, 2018 by kingkoopa6

[Hank_Hill 19764]

Trade proposal today:

Give: Kamara

Get: AB, Thielen

Kamara is only averaging 3pts less than both of them combined, but Ingram is back. My current WRs aren’t HORRIBLE but are banged up (Hilton, Baldwin, Corey Davis, Agholor, Sanu, Lockett) 

Thoughts?

[Hank_Hill 19764]

Other backs are Hunt and Lynch

4-0 so hesitant to change but it's tempting

Edited October 4, 2018 by Hank_Hill

[spystud13 2371]

You can’t trade Kamara, bro. 20 pts more than Gurley in a standard ESPN .5 PPR league right now. 

Try to move Lynch for a decent WR if you have to. 

[Anton Chigurh 3332]

Both those dudes are instantly better than your current receivers and have more value together than Kamara, more so in PPR.

Also, Ingram is back so Kamara’s value and useable can really only go down from here.

I think I would have to do it and then maybe try to move Hilton and another for a RB.

[spystud13 2371]

I’ve seen your team... 

[Hank_Hill 19764]

Yea, I may wait and see how things play out this weekend with Baldwin back/ Ingram back in the mix. 

[Guest]

2 players with the same points as one player is not an even trade.

 

That being said, those particular players would be requiring at least a moment of contemplation... 

[To be named later 1]

Cousins at Philly or Mahomes vs Jaguars?

Thinking of trading the top player in fantasy football when you're 4-0?

I know there's a good chance this may be the week that Mahomes comes back to earth, but I think I'd ride him until he crashes.

THAT'S a problem?

[HiggyBaby 2615]

I’m dead at RB this year. Fournette is broken and Collins sucks. That said, I did pick up Yeldon and Hines. Hope they can pick up the slack. I have a trade out for Mixon and Mahomes giving up Rodgers and Collins. We’ll see if he bites.
