Hey Jeff,

Another Q. How about, value wise here, PPR dynasty:

Chad Johnson

Roy Williams

V.Davis

SS

Hightower

Heath Miller

value wise, what do you think. this definitely helps my team.

and what do you think if the TEs weren't involved at all?

Hey JeffI am still looking for a possible gem at WR (lol). Are any of these guys worth picking up off waivers and storing on my bench:1. Lelie (Oak)2. Wade (Minn)3. Baskett (Phi)4. Avant (Phi)5. Reed (Buf)6. Lloyd (Chi)7. Moore (NO)8. Stovall (TB)9. Stockley (Den)Thanks...
I really do not like any of those. I like Chansi Stuckey more than those. But, still there should be better options.
Hey JeffStuckey was taken during Sundays game. Not much really left at WR. We are allowed 12 waiver wire pickups but really can't find any WR that is decent. Do you like any of the Seattle Wr's that signed today (Robinson / Colbert)?Who do you think I should start as my RB 2 this week...Grant vs Dallas or T.Jones at San Diego?Who would you start at WR3.....Walters at Tenn or Patten at Denver?Thanks...
I do not like any of the seattle wrs since next week is bye and branch, engram will be back week five. I would start Grant if he is healthy. I expect SD to play great this week and stop Jones' running. The WR3 is a tough one. I think I would go with Walter. Hou will want a win. Patten and the Saints pass game is best at home in dome.
Thanks Jeff. Just one more quick question. I also have Grants back up Jackson. Would you still start Grant or Jackson?? Picked up Grant this year hoping to be a solid RB2 but so far he has been a bust.
 
What a great game last night and even more amazing I pulled off a win in both leagues (Thanks for the great advice :thumbup: ) even after Young

Mr DeSean Jackson's little early TD drop.

I have LT in one of my leagues and I am feeling a strong desire to grab up Sproles.

On this team I have:

LT-Reggie-MBIII-TJones

I don't want to drop one of my RB's so here are my WR's:



Wayne-DJackson-ERoyal-SHolmes-OchoCinco-Crayton-Meachem

I need to drop one or maybe 2 of the guys above to grab Sproles and believe it or not Jonathan Stewart is also available.

I am leaning towards saying goodbye to Crayton for sure then it gets gray.....

OchoCinco hasn't shown up b/c Palmer hasn't but seriously can you ever consider dropping Chad---NO

Meachem looked sweet and Colston has at least 3-4 weeks to go

So, do I just dump Crayton -- YES? But for who, Sproles (LT's handcuff) or Jonathan Stewart.

I only have 1 TE & K -- 2 defenses but they are the Vikes & Ravens -- so I am staying pat.

Pretty good question--I think.

So, this girl is going to sit back and wait for your response, because I cannot make up my mind (lol)

:towelwave:

Thanks again Jeff!
I would drop Meachem and Crayton for the two RBs. I love Stewart for the end of the season and Sproles has great upside.
I forgot to ask your opinion on Derek Anderson. He has nothing but tough match-ups ahead and something isn't right with Cleveland.

I have Warner and he has been my starter. These are the guys on the wire. Just wanted to know if you like any of them and think I should drop Anderson to scoop them up.

Edwards-Campbell-JTO'Sullivan

Thanks Jeff---- :pickle:
I agree that DA does not seem right, but I would stay with him for now ....

On value alone, I think Chad and Roy are worth more than Smith (who himself cannot stay healthy) and Hightower. The TEs throw it even further that way. I can understand a contender making the deal for a run because the two are disappointing, but on value ... they are worth more. I would assume that this time next year chad and Smith will be close in value (unless/until Cad does something stupid again).
 
Jeff,

Need help here

I got caught behind a TE run and wound up drafting Alge Crumpler and Marcedes Lewis.

Neither look very productive right now.

I was going to cut Lewis and pick up a TE,

Available options are:

Rosario CAR

Royal BUF

Patrick ARZ

Martin MIA

Gilmore TB

Scaife TEN

Shiancoe MIN

Thomas NE

I need help I would think Rosario or Royal would be best but can't decide or is it someone else?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as unless Crumpler comes around this will probably be my starter for most of the year. (uugh)

I think I would go with Royal for now. Rosario has Steve Smith entering the lineup and taking away targets. Royal has played well to start the year.

Ben Patrick is the other interesting option, my homer Cardinal fan friend says they want him to win the starting job and he got some decent attention from Warner this past weekend. I think I'll go with Royal for now but keep a real close eye on Patrick and Rosario. Fred Jackson's emergence in the passing game is scaring me a little but I guess we'll see how it goes.Thanks Jeff
 
Hi Jeff - Would you mind giving your input on this topic - Thanks

.5 PPR with 6 points rushing and receiving TD's. It is a partial keeper league (2-5 players with $5 added to this years salary). Some guys that may be in play for this trade and their current salaries: SJax for $49, Turner for $6, Grant for $15, KSmith for $10 Hightower for $1, Schaub for $6.

My team is Team #1 in my signature.

His roster is as follows:

QB - Hasslebeck

RB - Forte, EJames, McFadden, Sammy Morris, McGahee

WR - Bowe, Braylon, A Gonzalez, S Moss, Steve Smith

TE -Witten

We can play 1 QB / 2 RB / 2 WR / 1 TE OR 1 RB and 3 WR

With Grants hammy, Turners going to have ups and downs and SJax is going to have a tough year (but I like the playoff schedule) I would like to use 3 WR's and think that Braylon would look swell next to B Marshall and Calvin. But I do want to keep next year in mind.

This owner seems to be a little gun shy about trading, but he has started 0-2 and did not do well last year. I don't want to loose to much, but I need to make an offer that will not turn him off.

I do not like the move getting Edwards with him not playing well. I might consider moving SJax and a throw in like Galloway (who is hurt) for Forte and A Gonzo. It would help your cap and give you young, cheap players that are very good.
 
This isn't a sit/start question...but a move/don't move question and hopefully it's the right place for it as it's still a strategy question......but is it time to start looking for trade partners for addai?12 team league, 7 keepers (including 2 rookies), 20 players on your roster, NO FREE AGENCY, PPR high scoring league where TD's get bigger based on yardarge, starters include 1QB, 2RB, 3REC (WR/TE), 1Def/ST, 1KMy Team:QB: McNabb, Kitna, YoungRB: Addai, MB3, Julius Jones, Kevin Jones, Rhodes, HightowerREC: Andre Johnson, Owens, Housh, Burleson (IR), Dallas Clark, Laurent Robinson, SweedThanks for your advice help! :goodposting:
welcome to Footballguys. In this thread, we talk about anything football related. Now, on to Addai. I personally am afraid of him, but some love him. I am prejudiced against Addai so take it as such. I would move Addai (who some would love as a keeper) plus Burleson for a RB and WR3-type receiver.Who would I target? The better RB you ask for, the worse WR you can get back. So, with that in mind, here are the RBs I would want in order to give such a highly ranked Addai:GoreReggie BushLynchGrantChris JohnsonPortisI like these three more than most:JacobsMcFaddenJ StewartAt WR, I would look for a youngster like Royal or DeSean Jackson. If those are too expensive, maybe a veteran like Engram or Branch that will soon be coming off an injury. These are the ones I would ask for on the low side. In the high side, I might target Welker and Cotchery who seem to be underrated in PPR leagues.If you can pull of Chris Johnson and Royal, Desean, Welker, or Cotchery, I would love it for you. You upgrade keepers and probably improve production. Hope this helps. Once again, welcome to FBG.Jeff
I'd like to thank you for your advice. I managed to trade Addai, Rhodes, Housh and my 3rd round pick FOR Chris Johnson, LenDale White, Anthony Gonzalez (Ind) and his 5th round pick. I feel very good about this trade as Johnson gives me a better rookie keeper over Limas Sweed and a better WR than Housh (at least YTD). Tony G 2's targets are impressive (20)...certainly not that of a #3 WR. Now, MB3 will remain my main starter, but my question is between Johnson and White. At this point, i think i should be starting Johnson since he's got the home run ability. We get more points for longer TD's (6 points for 1-12 yds, 9 points for 13-39 yds, 12 points for 40+ yds), eventho White is getting goal line carries (5 yds or less), Johnson has been scoring as many points cause of his receiving and total yardage per game. Again, thanks for your previous advice, it helped me a great deal!
 
Hey Jeff, another Q for you. PPR dynasty, big trade here. Value wise, tell me about this deal:

ADP

A.Gonz (ind WR)

for

Boldin

R.Bush

maybe L.Coles

Basically, what's your thought on the deal with or without Coles. Which side is getting more value, and possibly if you have time, why?

Thanks!!

no problem, happy to help. On the Titans, I see them using Johnson early until they get games well in hand then they bring White in to salt away the win. I would start Johnson every week unless you think the Titans will be up big early. But, this week will be a tough game for Tenn and they should want Johnson on the field as much as possible.Feel free to post in this thread anytime and I will do my best.

I think the ADP side is giving too much. Boldin and Bush have started well, but both are injury risks. Coles is not a big deal in this one. I see AG's value going sky high in next 2-4 weeks as Marvin is exposed as too old. I like Bush and Boldin, but I would want more giving by far the best dynasty RB. Think how much he is worth more than LT or SJax right now. Until Bush can be consistent running the ball, there will be a huge divide between he and ADP in value.
 
appreciate the help....

in a good ol' standard yahoo, no ppr..

i have the luxury of trying to find a starting spot for steve smith. wayne and TO at wr. sjax and gore at rb. chris j at flex. i am pretty psyched about all those matchups. does a first game smith warrant the start over any of these guys? my gut says maybe put him in for TO or sjax.

also, unreasonable to start cassel over ben roth this week?

 
Hello Jeff,

I have a couple questions. Here is my roster:

10 Team, 8 Keeper League, 0.5 PPR, 6 Pt/Pass TD

QB Peyton Manning, Ind QB

OP Jay Cutler, Den QB

RB Chris Perry, Cin RB @NYG

RB Maurice Jones-Drew, Jac RB

RB/WR Bryant Johnson, SF WR

WR Reggie Wayne, Ind WR

WR Chad Johnson, Cin WR

WR/TE Roy Williams, Det WR

TE John Carlson, Sea TE

Bench David Garrard, Jac QB

Bench Ronnie Brown, Mia RB @ NE

Bench Steve Slaton, Hou RB @ Ten

Bench DeAngelo Williams, Car RB @ Min

Bench Bernard Berrian, Min WR

Bench Matt Jones, Jac WR (Dropping him for Sidney Rice)

Bench Todd Heap, Bal TE

IR Marques Colston*, NO WR

IR Maurice Morris, Sea RB

1. Is Chris Perry my best start RB this week? He doesn't have a good matchup, but neither do my other RBs.

2. Am I in for a long winter? Outside of Jay Cutler and Reggie Wayne, everyone on the roster is underperforming expectations.

Thanks in advance.

I would definitely pick up Sproles with the return points. Would be a good spot starter if nothing else. Maybe I am believing the Eli play will last, but that seems like an expensive deal for Cutler. I would pass. The weather will get colder in Denver. Things will change. On Bruce, he would probably never start for you so no need picking him up. I like Sproles, though, especially if LT misses games.
So with Fargas getting injured and McFadden wearing a boot I need to nab Bush while I can.So would you recommend releasing Galloway or Betts?
 
Hey Jeff

Devin Hester Wr (CHI) was just dropped in my league. Is he worth a waiver pickup and a spot on my bench as I am still looking for a WR sleeper as I am hurting at WR with not much available on the waiver. Thanks...

My WR's are: Bowe, Driver, Patten, Walters, McCairns and Burleson (out for year)

I would start Smith over SJax until you see signs of life from the Rams. I like both QBs this week. Cassel has a great matchup and Ben has a bum shoulder ... not unreasonable

I would start Perry. Your team misses the two injured players. I think your team will be much better when colston is back.

Heya Jeff,

I have my eye on a few WR on the waiver. What do you think about them? I picked up Stuckey a couple days ago so he would be the roster spot. Team is in my sig.

James Jones

Jordy Nelson

(Rodgers looks good. Easy schedule so far, so we will see. I would like to have a GB receiver)

Curtis (still has a few weeks, should I grab him before he disappears? I am seriously targeting him, I would be pretty upset if someone else grabbed him, but he still has at least 3 more weeks)

Baskett(I dropped him to get stuckey, but Philly looks great his year....)

Avant

Berrian, or any other Min WR(with Ferrotte starting...I think we have to see how he does)

Walker (he's hurt again...and playing for raiders, how much can he do?)

Stockley(quality player, but will he get the targets)

When I pick guys off the WW I look at the team they play for just as much as their individual talent. Doing good so far...2-0 Thanks to your help

Mine as well knock it out now...here are my starters....see anything I'm missing?

Romo

Lynch, Johnson(Ten)

Holmes, Johnson(Det), Walter (Stuckey, or Walter?)

Gates

Bironas

Buffalo

I would look at dropping stuckey and lee (assuming you are starting Gates ... if not dump the extra defense in a week) and grab both James Jones and Curtis. I think both could be HUGE later on

you have a good team. So, it all hinges on Colston's health. If you do the deal, you will need to drop Jordan and pickup a WR to start. Hopefully Patten would be there or other decent starter. I think I like the deal if you think you can win some of the next few. It will prob be week 8 or so before colston is back. That is the tricky part. Also, I would drop garrard for Sage. I know that sounds off but if Schaub goes down, Sage might be your best QB. It is risky and much depends on your risk rolerance. What WRs are on the waiver wire? Anyone decent? if not, you have to hold steady. But, if a good WR is there, I might be inclined to do that deal, but it is close.

I was thinking about Sage, I almost took him instead of Sullivan, carrying 4 qbs is tough. wrs are thin, james jones is out there, branch, kevin curtis, stuckey, hilliard, toomer, gage, rice, matt jones, randl el.so you are thinking with colston closer to the 6 weeks, than the 4 weeks?
 
So Colston brought up another team of mine, not quite as good...actually bad-what was I thinking?

my roster:

Garrard, Bulger

Barber, Perry, F.Jones, MoMo, Andre Hall

Colston, Bowe, Bruce, Winlsow, LJ,Smith, Scheffler

Kaeding

Packers, Bills

Where to begin.

14 team redraft np ppr. 1qb, 1rb, 3wr, 1flex so we can start 2rbs or 4wrs. Can I wait for Colston at 0-2, I was offered A.gonzalez and Ted Ginn for him. I said no but .....any ideas?

there is a team with SJax and Boldin, Sjax only getting 13, 14 carries/game

graham b.marshall? would you give up graham marshall for barber colston?

maybe mcgahee, rice calv.johnson via-3 way trade

signed, down but not out

you have a good team. So, it all hinges on Colston's health. If you do the deal, you will need to drop Jordan and pickup a WR to start. Hopefully Patten would be there or other decent starter. I think I like the deal if you think you can win some of the next few. It will prob be week 8 or so before colston is back. That is the tricky part. Also, I would drop garrard for Sage. I know that sounds off but if Schaub goes down, Sage might be your best QB. It is risky and much depends on your risk rolerance. What WRs are on the waiver wire? Anyone decent? if not, you have to hold steady. But, if a good WR is there, I might be inclined to do that deal, but it is close.
I was thinking about Sage, I almost took him instead of Sullivan, carrying 4 qbs is tough. wrs are thin, james jones is out there, branch, kevin curtis, stuckey, hilliard, toomer, gage, rice, matt jones, randl el.so you are thinking with colston closer to the 6 weeks, than the 4 weeks?
Since Schaub and Sage are past their bye, you should be good with only 3 qbs. On Colston, I was trying to allow an extra week or two for him to get up to speed. Curtis and James Jones look the best to me of those WRs.

I would avoid SJax like the plague. On giving up Barber and Colston, I think it is close. This is a tough one. I might do it if desperate. Marshall has a great matchup this week. Also, what QBs are available on waiver wire? An upgrade would help a lot.

so drop garrard i take it.
 
I'm in a keep 5 league that also allows for a developmental keeper as long as that player was not in your starting lineup the previous season. Due to some keeper restrictions and starting requirements, I'd like to target a WR for this role. I drafted Sweed and Doucet thinking they could emerge as viable in the offseason, but there both far enough down on the depth chart I'm not as optimistic now.

Can you think of any WRs that I could be had cheaply today, but due to potential circumstance changes this offseason could be viable going into 2009? Free agents, back ups to free agents or back ups to aging veterans have historically been the most productive option in this system.

Any thoughts?

he or JTO, but i would bounce garrard

Josh Morgan looked good in preseasonJason Hill, also in SF ... both are decent prospectsMalcolm Kelly has been nicked up and might be cheapMany like Chansi Stuckey in NYJ but i think his numbers might decline when coles in 100%My two favorite undervalued 2nd yr WRs are james Jones and Steve Smith. Both could be huge (with an aging WR ahead of them now) in 09
 
Hi Jeff,

I have Schaub,Cassel, and O Sullivan.....pretty standard scoring, and need to drop one of them. Who would you keep of the three Qb's?

 
Hey Jeff, thinking I need a trade for a QB here,

12 team H2H auction Keeper. Keep 3 players for max of 3 years. Can keep unlimited number of rookies(salary depends on round taken 10 for 1st, 5 for 2nd, etc)

Scoring:

1 pt/25 yds passing

6 pts/rushing td

6 pts/catching td

1 pt/10 yrd receiving

1 pt/10 yds rushing

Basic scoring for DEF and K

Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 4 WR(TE's also WR), 1 K, 1 DEF.

QB- Garrard($7), Young($5)

RB- Lynch($48), Lewis($22), Maurice Morris($4), Deuce McAllister($4), Jason Wright, Marvin Harrison, Sammy Morris, and Brad Jackson(all for $1)

WR- Moss($40), Calvin Johnson($20), Holmes($16), Chris Cooley($11) D. Mason($3), R. Brown($7),Sidney Rice(4)

Cris Henry($1)

K- Crosby($1)

DEF- Buffalo($1)

Rookie Squad: Chris Johnson, Malcolm Kelly, Early Doucet, Josh Johnson

I have dropped Vince Young for Collins for $1. I have activated Chris Johnson from my rookie squad for $10/year. Anyways, the Warner($) owner also has Rivers($4) and Palmer for $16. He is in bad need of a RB and has offered me a descent offer. He will send one of his QB's and L. Maroney($31) for my Chris Johnson. My QB is really killing me and is the reason I have lost the past two weeks. I am not particularly interested in Maroney for that price and the injury concerns me. I don't have a whole lot of depth at RB so giving up Chris Johnson is hard to do. The guy said he might offer Jamal Charles instead of Maroney.

So, should I hold off for another week and see how Garrard does, he should have Porter next week which will help. I think I like Warner the most but its hard to give up Chris Johnson. What do you think? Thanks

Quick update here Jeff. I was talking trades with the Rodgers owner who is in bad need a of WR(he has absolutely nobody). Anyways I was thinking of offering Garrard and Moss for Housh and Rodgers. I won't be keeping Moss anyways and I think Housh will rebound. Although, part of me wants to stay away from anyone in Cinci. I may have to throw in one of my #4 WR to make the deal happen. You think Rodgers will keep it up or will Housh rebound? Thanks

Another update here Jeff. The Schaub owner has offered me Schaub and Kevin Jones(CHI) for Garrard, Sammy Morris and a second round rookie pick. Not a fair trade imo. His other QB is Romo. Other notables that he has is Gore. Edge, Chad Johnson, Steve Smith, Wes Welker, Anthony Gonzalez, Vincent Jackson and Scheffler. Should I make a counter?

Also, offered Maroney, Faulk and Warner for Chris Johnson. Thoughts?

 
Hi Jeff, I have Schaub,Cassel, and O Sullivan.....pretty standard scoring, and need to drop one of them. Who would you keep of the three Qb's?
I like Schaub best. Cassel and JTO are close, but I would prob go with Cassel just because JTO is sacked so much that he prob will not make it through midseason. 12 sacks in two games, 8 last week.

You might see if je would give schaub for morris and garrard ....keep johnson. cheap and talented.
 
Ok here are my weekly options...

Cassel v MIA

DelHomme @ MIN

O'SUllivan v DET

DEF (1)

Dallas @ GB



**Considering dropping the Jets D for another WR Gage is available and faces the Houston---Should I just stand pat for now since I have no real WR worries right now or do you see Gage as an upgrade on any of my guys above?

---------------------

TEAM TWO

QB (1)

Warner @ WAS

Anderson @ BAL

WR (3)

RWayne v JAX

DeSean Jackson v PIT

ERoyal v NO

SHolmes @ PHI

OchoCinco @ NYG

RB (2)

:goodposting:

 
Ok here are my weekly options...



TEAM ONE



QB (1)

Cassel v MIA

DelHomme @ MIN

O'SUllivan v DET



JTO vs Cassel is a tough one. I think you go with JTO with he and Martz playing their former team (Detroit).

WR (3)

TO v GBJennings v DAL

E Royal v NO

Cotchery @ SD

I would play TO, Jennings, Royal and sit Cotch. The other three are red hot and Royal gets a great matchup.

RB (2)

C Johnson v HOU

M Turner v KC

L Johnson @ ATL

Reggie Bush @ DEN

The only one I do not like is LJ. I think Turner is a gimme. Bush vs CJohnson is very tough. I think I would lean toward Bush only because I expect that game to be a shootout.

K (1)

Gould @ TB

Other WW options = Prater v NO / Bironas v HOU / Lindell v OAK / Kasay @ MIN / Hanson @ SF



I like Prater this week

DEF (1)

Dallas @ GB



**Considering dropping the Jets D for another WR Gage is available and faces the Houston---Should I just stand pat for now since I have no real WR worries right now or do you see Gage as an upgrade on any of my guys above?

Gage is hurt and may not play this week. I would hold off a week.

---------------------

TEAM TWO

QB (1)

Warner @ WAS

Anderson @ BAL

Warner easily

WR (3)

RWayne v JAX

DeSean Jackson v PIT

ERoyal v NO

SHolmes @ PHI

OchoCinco @ NYG

Wayne for sure. Royal would be next with a great matchup. The last is tough. I would choose between Jackson or Holmes, probably Holmes. But it is close.

RB (2)

LT v NYG

MBIII @ GB

Reggie Bush v DEN

TJones @ SD

J Stewart @ MIN

Sproles v NYJ

MB3 easy. And Bush easy. Sproles comes into play if LT sits this week with a great matchup, but I expect LT to play.

I would use DeSean Jax in flex unless LT is not playing ... then insert Sproles.

**(1) FLEX RB/WR from the names above**



DEF (1)

Balt v CLE

Minny v CAR



I like Balt def this week.

THANKS JEFF!

:thumbup:
have a good one and good luck.
 
Jeff,

8-keeper league, 0.5 PPR.

I offered Roy Williams for Braylon Edwards. Do you like my side of the trade? If so, what is the highest draft pick you'd include to get a deal done?

Thanks.

 
Jeff

I have Big Ben as my QB and Favre , But just saw K Warner on WW , Should i drop favre and pick up Warner

my other option are A. Fasano- MIA or LJ Smith- PHI

I would drop one of the TEs .... prob Fasano since they face NE ... but is a toss upNever hurts to have three good starting QBs (especially with Ben's bum shoulder)
 
I just pick up Warner I think he a better play this week Do you still like Gonzalez vs Jac over W Walker ?
