Buy Low/Sell High (1 Viewer)

[tjford]

Who's on your buy low/sell high list on the defensive side of the ball? Here's mine (although league specific to me):

Sell High:

DJ Williams

Mike Peterson

Darnell Dockett

Paris Lenon

DeAngelo Hall

Jermaine Phillips

Lito Sheppard

Napoleon Harris

Buy Low:

Antrel Rolle

Sabby Piscitelli

Chris Hope

Stephen Nicholas

Zach Thomas

HB Blades

Leon Williams

Niko Koutouvides

 

[Zoomanji]

Maybe I'm a bubble burster but good luck selling high on any of those guys besides DJ Williams.

I like buying low on these guys

Sabby Piscitelli

Chris Hope

Stephen Nicholas

HB Blades

Leon Williams

but Nicholas and Leon are going up and I didn't know Sabby ever came down from last year.

 

[Scooby]

I would add Antwone Winfield as a buy low, numbers were not that good last year with his injury, but is a tackling machine for DB's

No luck needed. All of those on the sell high list are players who I personally have successfully sold high or have seen sold high in leagues I am in.

I see a lot of talk and hype on HB Blades. Has he been penciled in as a starter yet? I can currently place an auction bid on him, but is he worth the roster spot at this point? This is a Zealots league.

Negative on being named a starter.Between Rocky McIntosh needing surgery on his knee three times since 06 and LFB's age, he has upside but you might need to wait a bit to see any production.

I honestly haven't done much thinking about this and don't plan to until after the draft but off the top of my head I am buying low

Already mentioned's Sabby, Nicholas, Leon, and Rolle

I'll add Aaron Rouse, Mike Brown, Eric Weddle, and Gocong (he's the new MIKE in Philly, right?)

The only sell high off the top of my head is Atari Bigby, he's the only sell high I have on any of my rosters and I haven't thought outside of just my rosters since the trade deadline in November

 

[jgb95]

I think Stewart Bradley is the new MIKE in PHILLY. Gocong is the SLB and Omar is the WLB.

(I think)

 

[jgb95]

Did DJ Williams play SLB in 2006?

Did DJ Williams play SLB in 2006?

Yup, and mike in 07...and will in 08 ...if you believe the talk that Niko stays in the middle

I think you're right, replace Gocong with him.

 

[houndirish]

Would Julius Peppers count as a buy low?

 

[Chaos Commish]

Buy Low:

Sabby Piscitelli

What do you Sabby fans consider to be low? I've offerred him up for a 6th round pick, which is the last round we draft, and I have no interest.

Unfortunately you're evidently trying to buy him off of one of us.

No, you misunderstood. I want to sell him cheap. About the lowest price I can ask is a 6th rounder. I'd take it in a heartbeat. No one in my league has even sniffed at the offer. I have too many DBs I like more than Sabby.

 

[radiohead417]

I think now is the right time to sell high on Antonio Cromartie. People are going to wise up and stop throwing in his direction.

No one will offer up a 5th rounder for a guy you likely drafted in that neighborhood last year and has shown no reason to devalue him? That just doesn't make sense. Maybe wait until after the NFL Draft. The S talent in this year's draft is. um. not good. Maybe Sabby will look better in their eyes by then.

Is there a chance that he is moving back to SLB? I would assume that he'd still put up decent #s in the W position too, no?

 

[Captain_Apocalypse]

Hmmm... not sure about Hope. He has talent, and plays hard, but I really noticed that the titans LB's really improved last year and that really seemed to effect the stats that their db's generated. Maybe I am wrong, but to me it seems like there just aren't as many opportunities for Hope to get bigger numbers.

I didn't look at the numbers so correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah something changed statistically for the entire defense....Bulluck stats went down and Thornton had a strong year for a SLB. Almost thinking the guy to get here is Griffin...look at his last few games in '07.

So what some of you are saying is that Piscitelli will unseat Jermaine Phillips, as the starter before or during the season ? Seems like a longshot to me..

And while we are on the Bucs, how is it physically possible that Derrick Brooks to play for a 13 season? from the Bucs website: Brooks was drafted in 1995. Over twelve seasons, he has played in more games (192) as a Buccaneer than any other player in franchise history. His active streak of 192 consecutive games played is tied for first in the NFL with new teammate Kevin Carter. Brooks has never missed a game in his NFL career

Sabby and Rouse are favorites around here.

I do have Sabby stashed on my taxi squad, but I figured with the improvement (??) of Phillips (and strength of my other DBs) it wouldnt be worth it to assign any years to Piscitelli. So I was planning on dropping him (can only keep on taxi squad for 1 year)

That's a year old. He and Carter have both played 13 seasons, this will be their 14th. Both have still never missed a game- 208 total.

I certainly like the bottom 3. When I dropped Nicholas for Blades you jumped right in. With McIntosh I wanted to back him up.
