***OFFICIAL*** Week 7 A. Gates Bye Week (1 Viewer)

[[scooter]]

I own both Gates and Winslow. My master plan was to trade Winslow & D. Anderson for Peyton Manning, but the rest of the league flipped out so now I'm stuck.

That said, I'm going with Eric Johnson. He's got the most targets of players on my WW, and it looks like New Orleans is finally getting back on track.

uggg...sorry to hear that. what is up with people not allowing owners to operate their teams how they see fit. This is a major issue imo. There was absolutely nothing wrong with that trade. I will be rooting for Eric Johnson to completely go off today for you (and not because I have to start him as well)

I thought Denver, Cincinatti, and Buffalo were the top 3?

Do you have a link?

It was between Syp and Scheffler for me and I was thinking of going with Syp but this says Buffalo is pretty solid against TEs...although Witten was unstoppable. Seeing Pitt that low makes me consider Scheffler more.

Rankings do have me a little worried about Daniels in my other league.

Oh, may have to grab VD if he plays today based on this info!

Since my original backup plan for Alex Smith got shot down ( He didn't travel with the team ), I'm going with a sneaky Marcellus Rivers play in NE as a fillin for Watson.

Note: The best of the rest of the waiver wire might have been Chris Baker or Scheffler. Nothing but scraps for this one.

And then back to Mr. Gates!!!!

 

[Nemesis Enforcer]

I am going with Owen Daniels, hopefully he will find the endzone one of these weeks

 

[Zow]

FWIW both baker and lj smith are out today

What about Martrez Milner or Dwayne Blakley? (Crumpler's backups) I know Crumpler hadn't done a whole lot this season, but with Garrard getting his first start, maybe he would be inclined to throw towards his TE?

 

[Ocho Cinco]

Eric Johnson 6 catches for 39 yards and 2 TD's today!!!

 

[az_prof]

I just picked up McMichael: he has bulger back, has a good matchup, and who else is going to catch the ball in STL?

 

[[scooter]]

Gates is so dominating that I may just start him anyway and see what happens.

He's outscored Sypniewski so far.

 

[MCguidance]

Started Scaife, hope he has a smiliar second half.

 

[NE_REVIVAL]

Couldn't find the eat crow emoticon, but it certainly applies to my Marcellus Rivers suggestion

 

[Scruff Mcgruff]

Here's hoping Mercedes Lewis has a huge game.

I wouldn't bet on it but heres hoping, god knows I need it

 

[Bojang0301]

Kyle Brady got me points with Watson being out. Can't complain with it being a desperate move.

 

[shadyridr]

Who needs Gates when I picked up Scheffler? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Jon_Moore]

Picked up Johnson off FA last night.

Then thought Scheffler might get some looks tonight without Walker.

Scheffleer's done real nice, but, would have rather had Johnson
