The week of the New England blizzard game (last week?), at the last minute I benched Ray Rice (playing Minn) and started Sammy Morris instead. They were ranked roughly equal by FBGs for that week, and I decided the blizzard conditions tipped the scales in Morris favor. That was a good plan for...

Does anyone think Charles or Smith have any particular dynasty value. Sounds like the general consensus is "not really." I'm in a two keeper league - although one of them is in lieu of a 5th round pick - so "dynasty value" is pretty restrictive (if he's not plausibly a 5th round pick next year...

Does this affect anyone? The fact that he corrected it that quickly, plus the circumstances surrounding the players at issue, all argue for his account being accurate. The role of a commissioner for me is to make sure that things are occuring the way they ought to. There wouldn't need to be a...

Thanks. I read that article and while I don't have any background in auctions, the article is basically describing value as points vs. a baseline (i.e., worst starter or whatever). The result of that would be that points for a RB should equate in lockstep fashion to value for a RB. The article...

I'm trying to deal him for a decent QB (Warner, Roethlisberger, Palmer). Trade offer hasn't had time to incubate yet. I have Gore, K. Smith and Rice and consider Slaton my worst back with the lowest forward prospects. Hope I'm not wrong.

I was just looking at the Top 200 forward (customized for my league's scoring), and noticed something I'd never noticed before... the "value" column for players does not match what I'd expect given the "total FPT" column. For example, Gore is RB11 at 43.6 value, Moreno is RB12 at 40.3 value...

FWIW, Bradshaw is ranked RB33 using my league scoring system.

Just for reference, I'm about to propose a Slaton and T. Edwards for (RB) and Palmer trade. In other words, a Slaton for Palmer trade. Shaun Hill is on waivers and the only way he would be involved is if the guy I'm trading with cuts Edwards and picks him up. Hill is not even the best player...

Nothing to contribute except to say that I cut Edwards the day before the Jets got him. Had Wayne, Smith (NYG), and Sims-Walker (in start two league). He had done nothing, I didn't expect the Browns to do anything, so I waived him and picked up Breaston. Edwards had no catches and then punches...

I drafted Garrard, following FBG's positioning of him (which is really two positions: the QBBC positioning and then Dodds had him as a marginal QB#1). I'd say he has been a modest disappointment relative to my expectations but not a disaster. I'm 5-0 and lead my league in scoring by a wide...

me too. 2-0, Garrard and Edwards, rest of roster is rock-solid. I hope it doesn't catch up to me. There are no other QBs out there to replace them.

Just dropped Morgan for S. Smith. Considering dropping Avery for one of these guys - Henderson, Robinson, Knox, Sims-Walker - they are all available. I'm looking for a "high beta" guy, rather than consistency, plus the most likely to become very valuable next year. I can protect one player...

12 team single player keeper league, 2 RBs, balanced rosters required. We drafted on Sat. 8/31 (before Panthers/Ravens game) Rounds (round adjusted for keeper round): 18 McFadden 2.08 (3.08) - I think this was a little high 19 Brown 2.X (3.X) 20 Moreno 3.06 (4.06) - high due to keeper...

A number of posters here are in keeper leagues (though they don't preface everything they post with that) and that influences the interest in and draft position of players like Moreno. Moreno went in the middle of the fourth round in my keeper league which was two rounds before he "should" have...

I need Gerrard to be decent. I went weak-QB to strengthen everything else.

I don't believe in vetoing trades but I do believe that for league integrity, trades should "make sense" to both teams. I like the idea of talking with the rookie and having him explain why this trade makes sense to his team. He will either a) provide some kind of logical defense, even if...

To maintain some consistency with the original intent about moving to a keeper league, but not screw people like you, I'd say: Option 1: just have one keeper. Nobody could claim they would have changed their drafting strategy on that. Option 2: have two keepers, but they can be any position...

Thanks, just saw that cross my screen and couldn't get my question deleted in time!

Thanks

Is Mason playing?
