That's odd, I'd be thrilled to have them.I'd be happy to have the 1st 3 rounds fall:
Yep, I mean really not want any Colts?travdogg said:
You're ####in annoying. Im not saying the guy will have a bad year. As a matter of fact I think he will have a great season. I own Addai (selected with the 5th pick). I just think its inevitable he starts off slow this year due to some other factors and astute owners need to pay attention and try to buy low after week 4. Just giving everyone a heads up.
Got under your skin, did I? I'm just thinking it's really unlikely anyone is going to trade Addai right before or after he BYE's, given that even if he struggles a little bit his first three games, most, if not all, owners are going to be thinking that the ship will straighten out after the BYE.It's really really difficult to get someone's first round pick on the cheap. By all means if someone is willing to let their first pick go cheap, it's probably a good acquisition for someone else. I just don't see many owners really willing to do that.You're ####in annoying.

Looking at last year, how many owners clung to Reggie Bush, even when he struggled, simply because they spent a first, and wanted first round value in return.
Bush was a Top 10 RB in PPR leagues last year. So his owners in those leagues had every right to hold out for first-round value in return if they were looking to trade him. In the Colts' thread, you said you thought Addai would be negatively impacted by the injuries the Colts have on their offensive line. If your prediction holds, it's very possible his owners will be looking to cut bait with him after nearly 20% of the season has been played. As an Addai owner, I'm having a little buyer's remorse (in hindsight I wish I had taken Gore with the fourth pick in my draft) but am hoping the Colts will find a way to be an explosive offense as usual despite all the questions they currently face.Got under your skin, did I?

Oh, i didn't realize he and Forte were running against the same defense... Indy's run defense is horrible
It was considerably better than Chicago's last season. Give the Bears a lot of credit. They played great tonight. But that doesn't change the fact Addai was terrible.harrycarey said:

this guy Judge Smails is a shark
Brady's injury is an excuse, but Addai's isn't?Honestly, the Bears D totally dominated the Colts OL last night. And that was what most Addai owners (at least the smart ones) expected... The Colts OL is in shambles, and will be until at least the BYE. Hopefully the people who drafted Addai realize that and are smart enough to have drafted insurance for the first few weeks, and won't give him away for nothing.packersfan said:
I haven't seen confirmation, but it sure looked that way didn't it? I mean he got his bell seriously rung on that play. Seemed like he not only got major helmet to helmet contact on the initial hit, but also got his head slammed into the ground pretty violently at the end of it too. I don't think he knew what planet he was on there for the rest of the game. I hope this isn't an ongoing situation. I think I will be making a move for Hart in the one league I have Addai to backup, Rhodes looked like dirt last night.
Given how Addai was putting up crappy numbers before he left the game I don't see any reason to attribute Addai's horrible Week 1 production to his getting dinged in the head. I consider myself a smart owner and while I knew the Colts had issues I didn't expect Addai to look so bad against one of the league's worst run defenses last season and I wasn't expecting him to be a total non-factor in the passing game. There had been plenty of discussion about the Colts' offensive line injuries, but if there was a thread talking about how Addai would no longer be involved in the passing game I must've missed that. Do you have a link? TIA.
I'm not sure Addai looked that bad... the OL was crap. Still, they made some adjustments at the half and Addai was starting to look pretty good right before the injury... he had just popped off two good runs at the end of the third going into the 4th. I actually was thinking he might be startable next week right before the injury.He likely has a concussion, so we'll see what the Colts do...
