This week isn't bad for me bye/injury wise... Far from a given to get through with the shrinking team pool, but I'll have 24 of my 28 players and $218 of my $250 playing. Only injury is Abdullah. It's weeks 9, 10 and 11 that I will really have bye issues. With injuries and byes, I'll be missing 6, 5 and 7 players those weeks (5, 5, 6 on bye plus the Abdullah injury).

 
Lol... The top 500 hasn't updated yet on the site. The team in first place last week is only 83.55 points behind my current score without his week 7 score added in yet.

 
Week 8 not bad for me, although I'll be thin at WR with just Julio and Rishard Matthews. 5 guys out in all:


WR


Sterling Shepard


$11


WR


Kenny Stills


$4


WR


Mike Thomas


$3


TE


Jesse James


$2


PK


Andrew Franks

Week 9 worrisome @RB (but I'll still have LMurray, Duke, CMike).


RB


David Johnson


$30


RB


James White


$5


WR


DeSean Jackson


$14


PK


Dan Carpenter

4118. So many ways to get the 2 points I needed to advance that just didnt pan out. Heavy TE finally let me down. Good luck to the Final 4000!

 
166.2

middlish of the pack but I'm not complaining.  glad to be here this late. I think I should survive one more week and then week 9 and week 10 byes are brutal.  :scared:

Sitting at 120 overall so far. My team looks pretty similar to the #1 overall team, it's just a worse version of it. 

Have managed to avoid the injury bug for the most part, except for Charles Sims. Week 9 my only running backs will be DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry.  :bag:

Kenny Stills has scored for me as many times as all my other <$10 bargain WRs have combined: Funchess, Rishard Matthews, Chris Hogan, Quinton Patton, and Jermaine Kearse.

 
Back in the top 500 at 307. It's fun to sweat it out and see how far I can go. Longest I have lasted over the past several years.

Will be playing with $202 or $192 this week.

It's time to start rooting hard for Quan Bray to have a Pro Bowl type second half of the season.

 
Didn't figure the money matters at this point but I did figure to be down 8 or nine players this week ( depending on health of theo riddick ). The good news I guess is most of those are due to injury and not byes meaning it will be felt by many

 
I'm still in. Got a strong batch of RBs that will hopefully keep me afloat because with Keenan Allen and Josh Gordon being $36 of dead salary space, I need the other positions to bail me out.

 
Funchess and James White finally counted toward my point total this week. The only player I have left that hasn't checked in once is Stills.

Any one have all of their players contribute at least once.
With Stills having a good week I've now had all my players finally count at least once toward my point total. I've never had this before.

I got very luck to survive this week without Hyde and Elliot. I like my team, but I've just been too lucky at QB (Winston, Keenum, Wentz) with Keenum and Wentz putting up better than expected numbers. I will really need Winston to hit his stride if I am going to have any chance at going far.

I still have two players who have not counted. Jeremy Langford and Arian Foster :X .  That's $29 I'd love to have back.  

 
Only have 1 active TE this week (Walker) and will miss LeVeon Bell, but it sounds like I'm in better shape than most this week.

 
Betting the cutoff is below 140.

Goodbye Arian Foster, hello Devotae Booker.

TE and DEF are my weak spots....didn't think this would be the case when we started....if only Cook would start playing.....

Sure would have been helpful if CJA had been hurt AFTER DJ's Bye Week. Sigh. Need Ware to tear it up the next couple of weeks.

 
You know what would be an awesome addition to the live scoring site? Projected weekly outcomes based on the FBG projections.  I could waste hours sweating over that info.  

 
80 points last night, not a bad start, thanks Titans.

RB    DeMarco Murray    TEN    $15    19.80
RB    Derrick Henry    TEN    $7    19.70
WR    Rishard Matthews    TEN    $6    13.80
TE    Delanie Walker    TEN    $16    13.80
PK    Ryan Succop    TEN    $2    12.50

 
Hey, I was happy with Matthews and Succup giving me decent floors at their positions.
I feel the same about Henry and succop. But, 248 other people share those 2.

Really hope Moncrief comes back, with a few key guys on bye or injured.

 
I only had Henry and thought wow, what a start 19.70.   I'm in 2,215/4000  cut is at 3100.  Going to be a tough week when guys like Hurns, Henry, Bortles, Walker, Mariota, Matthews all put up solid numbers last night along with a more expensive Murray.

 
Jamaal Charles declared out....good news for S Ware owners.  :thumbup:
Really kicking myself for not following the crowd on that one. Figured he'd just be a short term rental until Charles got back to full health. As a general strategy, I avoid early season rental players since the long term goal is to score points weeks 14-16, but Ware is working out for people now. I hope Charles comes back full strength starting around week 13... (Not a Charles owner, but anyone who survives that long with him doing nothing deserves to reap some rewards, while people surviving on a rental have had their run)

:yes: Ware and Michael probably won't win this thing for a team but not having them puts a team at a HUGE disadvantage.

 
I like my team, except for my Rbs.  Two down with Foster and Sims out.  I am down to:  Ware, Gio, Henry, D.Wash (Oak).  After debating for days, I choose way wrong in my Booker vs. Washington debate.  :wall:   The one saving grace is that Ware's bye week is past us. 

 
Just above the cutoff after the early games. Need Julio/Gates/Henry to score big.
Same situation but need Julio/Witten/Z. Miller to score big.

Hilton and Ware injuries the week Bell and 2 of my WRs have byes are killers.  Just glad Johnson got a few garbage time points to keep me alive.

 
With no Brady or Bennett or Gronk (or rg3) week 9, hoping Carr has a bit more left in tank.

Good luck to those on the week 8 fence. 

 
Whew... Was just ahead of the cut line during much of the afternoon games then Melvin Gordan, Matt Ryan, Devante Adams and Mohammed Sanu went berserk in the 2nd half. I'm now almost 50 points above the cut line after being within 10-12 points of it until the final 1.5 quarters of both games happened. With only Witten -3.6 left for the final 2 games, I was starting to worry.

 
Oh and don't wish injuries on anyone but would be nice for me if Charcandricklmnop West were to end up getting a start or 3 for KC over the next few weeks as byes get ugly.
