Jeff,I'm need an another runner this week. I thought it would finally be Jackson, and AP. I need one out of these guys: Lewis,Benson,Dayne, and maybe Duckett if Jones didn't play.I'm also concerned with Plax. I have Henry or maybe Branch that could plug in.Would you Play Schaub over Kitna this week?Also need two of these: Edge, Jone Drew, GrahamThanks for ALL the help!

Schaub slightly over Kitna. Schaub is healthy with all of his WRs back and Ahman nicked. They should be down to the Saints early and they will have to throw. Edge easily against the Cincy defense. And, Graham slightly over MJD because the Bucs will rely on him to salt away a win. The Bucs need a win to get a leg up on the division.

Who out of these: Lewis, Benson,Dayne, and what about Thomas if Lynch is OUt this week. Thanks...

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

Do you think Grossman or Boller will start for their teams in 2008? Which would you rather roll the dice with? Obviously I'm not expecting much out of either guy, just a backup for next year. Thanks.

Boller. Grossman is a free agent in 2008. Boller signed a one-year deal and will be in Baltimore next year. I expect him, not McNair or Troy Smith, to be the starting QB in B-more.

no way on Thomas against the Pats. Dayne is an unknown and we will not know until after it is too late. I like Lewis best of that group, but more of a lesser of evils.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Off to the waiver wire!

Okay-Jeff...I am going to start off with an apology. I have a kicker question---

I have Hanson he did okay last week---no where near the points I was getting with Crosby.

Crosby is now back on the WW, he won't last long. I want to know what you think about his schedule through week 15 & Hanson's.

HANSON NYG GB @MIN DAL @SD

CROSBY CAR @DET @DAL OAK @STL

I know that you favor Hanson b/c he kicks indoors. Crosby hasn't be tested by the elements yet--but

the Packers offense has been consistent.

Are you worried about the Lions offense at all?

They couldn't be closer on paper. Hanson has 80pts for the season--Crosby has 84pts.

Hanson has earned 32pts kicking outdoors/48 indoors---Crosby has 72 outdoor pts/12 indoors.

SO----This has to be the most information you have ever read to help give an opinion on a kicker!

You have been awesome this season---I appreciate everything!

Thanks for the kind words. On the kickers, I like Crosby more now. Here is the deal on Hanson. When Kevin Jones is healthy and playing well, Hanson gets more points (field goal opportunities). Now with KJ ailing a little, go back to Crosby. I hope this makes sense. When the Lions have a healthy KJ, they play more conservatively. Last week he only had 4 carries so low Hanson scores.

My record: 5-5 (in first place)

# of teams: 16

# of keepers for next year: 5 (current: Brees, LT, Kevin Jones, Marshall, Witten)

Scoring system: 6pt rush/receive TD, 0.1 ppy rush/receive 0.5 ppr

We start: 1QB, 1/4 or 2/3 WR/RB, 1K, 1D

My team:

QB: Brees, Favre

RB: LT, KJ, Norwood, Young, C. Williams

WR: Harrison, Marshall, R. White, Bruce, Witten, H. Miller, Brad Smith

K: Folk

D: Green Bay

I've been offered: Adrian Peterson

I give up: 1st round pick (2009, 2010) and Norwood

My thoughts: I should do it. Peterson will come back and continue to dominate. Plus, I get to keep him for the span of his career.

PS: Thanks for all the free advice you offer. It is more than appreciated.

I would do that in a heartbeat because stud RBs are tough to come by in 16 team leagues. You have a very good team and this will help. You will be able to move a RB in the offseason for WR help if need be. Since this does not affect your lineup, unless Peterson comes back, it makes it a no brainer. It would be tough if you had to give a starter.

 

[stubby]

12 team, start 2 RB/3WR/no flex, 0.5ppr, redraft

my roster (or the part that pertains to this trade)

RB LJ,Bush,Travis Henry, Selvin

WR Steve Smith,Roy Williams,Colston,Santonio Holmes,Chris Henry

Def/ST New England, Green Bay

I received an offer to trade Colston and GB Def/ST for W. McGahee.....no brainer, correct? I think have enough WR depth, even with Smith/Roy being up and down, and I can always pick up someone from the waiver wire

The defense does not really matter with you having the Patriots. I see this as a tough decision. The more I think about it, the deal comes down to:Will Willis outscore Selvin/Henry until LJ comes back by more than Colston will outscore Holmes (or Henry)?With the way Smith and RWilliams are playing (and it being .5 PPR), I honestly think I would pass. Willis is averaging roughly 100 total yards and half a TD each game. I think Selvin can come close. Also, Smith scares me if you have to rely on both he and Roy every week. If you keep Colston, at least he offers you a solid WR each week. Your WRs are great on paper, but Roy and Smith are finding it difficult to consistently produce.

 

[bighead2000]

Hey Jeff, I'm seriously looking at benching plax in favor of Clayton(like the mathchup),Henry or maybe Branch.

I have Wayne and Holmes at Wr1 and 2 this week. I'd appreciate your thoughts.

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

Hello Everyone, I was going to share something I noticed a few minutes ago. The Steelers/Jets game could be in UGLY weather. Highs below 50 with possibly some freezing rain mixed in. I saw the report when submitting a lineup on CBS. This affects the Jets WRs and the Steeler defense. With Clemens under center, the Pitt defense could be huge this week. Just a heads up.

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

Hey Jeff, I'm seriously looking at benching plax in favor of Clayton(like the mathchup),Henry or maybe Branch.I have Wayne and Holmes at Wr1 and 2 this week. I'd appreciate your thoughts.

I would sit Plax this week, too, just because he has not had a good game in a while and needs to get healthy. I would give Clayton a week (with Boller at QB) to see what he has. It is a good matchup. He would be my second choice. Branch is the guy I would play, if he is definitely healthy. If not, start Clayton. Henry and the Bengals will have more struggles with AZ than most realize, imo. Look at what the Cardinals did to Detroit.

 

[Jeff Tefertiller]

Hello everyone,

I will be around today and tonight for sure. I fly to Gainesville, FL early tomorrow for a funeral and will not be back until Sunday night. There is a chance I can check in tomorrow night, but no guarantees because the funeral is at night (had to schedule around the Gator game).

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Jeff

Hey Jeff,

Joe Echemandu is on the WW in a dynasty of mine.

Would you pick him up and drop either Losman, APittman, or Hilliard?

QB: Hass, Favre, Losman

RB: LT, FWP, Portis, Betts, Alexander, Jordan, Rhodes, APittman

WR: Housh, Plax, Branch, Coles, D-Jax, Meachem, Hilliard

I would drop Hilliard for him. I like "Joe" as a good dynasty sleeper.

 

[JPeso]

Hey Jeff,Would you pick him up and drop either Losman, APittman, or Hilliard?

I would drop Hilliard for him. I like "Joe" as a good dynasty sleeper.

That was my thinking as well. Our scoring system is PPR and Ike is currently 29th in scoring. Guy has 0 trade value. Guess I will let him sit the bench on someone else's team because of his decent scoring. Thanks!

 

[2112]

Hey Jeff -

I need some lineup help. I can-NOT seem to settle on who to bench of these 3. They all "deserve" to start in one way or another - but life is about facts. And the facts are I can only start 2.

C.Portis at Dallas (great back, bad matchup)

R. Grant vs. Carolina (hot back, good matchup)

C. Taylor vs. Oakland (good back, great matchup)

My gut says to sit Portis, but my head won't let me. Can ya help a brotha out?

I only advised it for you since he probably will not start the rest of the way with your team. Who knows what the Bucs will look like next year on offense. I would rather take a shot on a young back than an older WR.

I would start Chester for sure. Great matchup and poor QB play will mean they have to rely on him. Grant versus Portis is a tough one. What is the scoring? If standard, I would lean to Portis. With Santana possibly limited, Portis should be the focal point of the offense. Portis has gotten his even with bad matchups. I would lean that way.

 

[puddy]

Hey Jeff--

K Jones is still iffy with his foot and limited even if he starts. I don't like his match-up this week after the Giants loss to Dallas.

Maroney has yet to show up in any of the Pats wins but I think he has the bigger upside---Do you agree?

I have read all the predictions and projections -- Anderson & Schaub are both predicted to post big numbers.



Please tell me who to start its too close to call!!!

I'm sorry to hear about your loss, have a safe trip.

[bighead2000]

Jeff, Need this game badly.

PIck two: Jennings,Hackett,S. Smith,Calv. Johnson,Chambers.

I was also curious about Branch where he's listed in the F. Guys rankings. A ways down from guys like Clayton, Henry and Burress? I'm hearing he'll start this week, but will it be limited plays.

Also: Graham or MjD........Graham's been a little gimpy this week.

I would go with Jennings and Hackett. Smith and Johnson are nicked. And I am not a huge fan of Chambers (Chargers pass game).Branch is listed a little because he is limited some. Also, two other things. Some might still feel Chicago defense is decent and some might want to see him a game to see if he is healthy. Branch had a nasty foot injury. I would lean toward MJD with Graham questionable. Even with a good matchup, hate to get a zero if Graham does not play or is limited. Good luck.

Thanks. I do like Maroney. The issue is the lack of TDs. I am starting Maroney this week in the only league I have him. I also like KJ. I would say start whichever one you like the best because it is a tough call. With Rolle out and McAllister maybe out for Baltimore, I would go with Anderson. I think he is the safer one. Schaub is a good play, too, especially with Ahman out. But, you never know about Houston.

Good luck.

[valhallan]

With Grossman back in, I'd really like to start Berrian but should he be put in over any of these guys?

Holmes at NYJ

R.Williams vs. NYG

Ma.Clayton vs. Cle

Evans vs. NE

PPR, 1/10 receive, 6 pt TDs

We have flexible line-ups and I'm definitely going with 4 wides this week. I'm in a crucial divisional match-up that's very even on paper and the home-run threat of Berrian is very tempting. What do you think?

 

[rascal]

Jeff,I just did this trade:I give:J Galloway, A Green, and C HenryI get:MBIII, B Jackson, J JonesThat makes my roster:QB: M Hasselbeck, B RoethlisbergerRB: W Parker, MBIII, T Jones, C Benson, E Graham, R Grant, B JacksonWR: B Edwards, S Holmes, S Moss, R White, J JonesTE: A GatesK: N FolkD: Titans12 team redraft league that starts: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, RB/WR, TE, K, DScoring: 10/25 yards=1 pt, TDs=6/4 pts, 1 pt per 3 receptionsWhat do you think?So now I'm a little thin at WR, but that is easier to address then RB, and I have a hord of RB depth to trade to get it.Which RB would you trade for WR depth and who would you target? I like White, I just don't want to have to rely on him in case of injury, and I also don't like the idea of having just Holmes as my #2 as he has been nicked up lately.

I like the deal and would look to sell either Benson or Grant for a receiver. Benson produced decent fantasy points, because of the touchdown, but was largely ineffective. Grant looked great, but he is not a starter with your great RB corps. If trading either, I would look at one of the following:Andre Johnson (should be back this week)Lee EvansJavon Walkeror even Marvin harrison if you think he will be back. One other thought would be Hines Ward so you can start both Steelers if a great matchup.

Okay I just got offered Reggie Bush and Vincent Jackson in exchange for Ryan Grant and Santonio Holmes.I have been talking to an owner about trading Graham and Benson for Colston.Thoughts?

I like the Bush deal, but it would help a ton if you can get Colston or other WR. You will start Holmes every week, with three RBs, so one good WR would be great.

okay so I just screwed myself. I sent an offer of Graham and Holmes for Bush and Hester (trash obviously) and they accepted it much to my surprise.So that makes my team:Big Ben/HasselbeckFWP, Bush, MBIII, Grant, Benson, and T JonesB Edwards, R White, S moss, D HesterGatesFolkTitans D, broncos DI just screwed myself at WR whereas at RB I'm freaking loaded especially in this format where RB's get bonuses for 50 yards receiving and 1 pt per receptions.What should I ask for T Jones and Benson WR wise? Or should I offer MBIII or Grant and what should I target in return?

 

[bighead2000]

Jeff,

A. Green is OUt,....some folks are saying they like Dayne over Lewis with this in mind. Thoughts? Hope your trip went well.

Berrian vs Clayton would be only choice. You pretty much have to start the other three. Considering the matchup, I would stay with Clayton.

I won one and loss one-- So--should I just stay pat with Crayton? It sounds like more of the same with Moss.

Maroney cost me the game tonight, no idea what is wrong with him...what a bust he is this season and its even crazier considering the team he plays on.

I think the Patriots have caused long term damage to the Bills.

[AC05]

Hello again Jeff!

Ok, my team is below:

10 Team Dynasty, non PPR

Passing- 4/td, 1/20 yds

Rushing/Recieving- 6/td, 1/10 yds

Defense- 5/int, 2/tack, 1/asst, 4/sack

QB(1)- McNabb, Roethlisberger, Leinart

RB(2)- FWP, Adrian Peterson, R. Bush, K. Jones, S. Young, Turner

WR(3)- S. Smith, Chad Johnson, TO, Roy Williams, Calvin Johnson, S. Moss

PK(1)- Vinatieri

DL(2)- J. Abraham, C. Grant, W. Smith

LB(2-3)- Pierce, Peterson, McIntosh, DiGiorgio, Harris

DB(2-3)- Sanders, Harper

I don't think anybody would argue with my offensive talent, but I have an opportunity to acquire Addai. I know many people would say "stay put, you're offense is great and you have excellent depth" but I've built such a good offense by moving pieces around like a madman this year (and sacrificing some defense along the way- but I've built a solid makeshift defense).

Here is the team with Addai:

QB- Anderson, Cutler, Young

RB- Addai, Alexander, Chatman, Norwood

WR- Harrison, Holmes, AJ, James Jones, Randle El, Clark

K- Folk, Kaeding

DL- Coleman, Halli, Osi

LB- D'Qwell Jackson, Derrick Johnson, Landon Johnson, Bart Scott, Vilma

DB- Bailey, J Philips, Gibril Wilson

In discussions, I mentioned that something like FWP and Calvin Johnson *might* work but that I wasnt sure I could give up that much- esp with a few older WRs on my roster. He said that would be a good offer, but he wasnt sure he wanted a WR. What do you see that might work?

Jeff,I just did this trade:I give:J Galloway, A Green, and C HenryI get:MBIII, B Jackson, J JonesThat makes my roster:QB: M Hasselbeck, B RoethlisbergerRB: W Parker, MBIII, T Jones, C Benson, E Graham, R Grant, B JacksonWR: B Edwards, S Holmes, S Moss, R White, J JonesTE: A GatesK: N FolkD: Titans12 team redraft league that starts: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, RB/WR, TE, K, DScoring: 10/25 yards=1 pt, TDs=6/4 pts, 1 pt per 3 receptionsWhat do you think?So now I'm a little thin at WR, but that is easier to address then RB, and I have a hord of RB depth to trade to get it.Which RB would you trade for WR depth and who would you target? I like White, I just don't want to have to rely on him in case of injury, and I also don't like the idea of having just Holmes as my #2 as he has been nicked up lately.

I like the deal and would look to sell either Benson or Grant for a receiver. Benson produced decent fantasy points, because of the touchdown, but was largely ineffective. Grant looked great, but he is not a starter with your great RB corps. If trading either, I would look at one of the following:Andre Johnson (should be back this week)Lee EvansJavon Walkeror even Marvin harrison if you think he will be back. One other thought would be Hines Ward so you can start both Steelers if a great matchup.

Okay I just got offered Reggie Bush and Vincent Jackson in exchange for Ryan Grant and Santonio Holmes.I have been talking to an owner about trading Graham and Benson for Colston.Thoughts?

I like the Bush deal, but it would help a ton if you can get Colston or other WR. You will start Holmes every week, with three RBs, so one good WR would be great.

okay so I just screwed myself.

Since it is a 10 team league and your team looks great, I would make the move to upgrade the starters. I would offer the other owner FWP and his choice of Calvin or Selvin. Your roster will not miss either. Your WRs are not that old and your depth will cover any issues.

Yeah and I needed it.The Harrison owner has approached me and is interested in trading Harrison for Benson straight up. Would you do that?

Yes/ I would take that chance. Harrison could help for your fantasy playoffs.

Week 12I have bulger as my qb he suck this week thay play SEA This is what on WWManning, Eli vs MINCampbell, Jason @ TBWarner, Kurt Schaub, Matt vs CLEIs on of these qb better than Bulger

Since Culpepper was able to throw for well over 300 yards and a TD against Minny this week, I like Eli's chances of putting 2-3 TDs and 250+ yards on the board. Keep an eye on Plax's health, but Eli could be huge if Jacobs misses the game.

In a 4-keeper league, start 2 RB, 2WR, 1 TE, 1 flex. 0.5 PPR

I have

QB: Roeth, Kitna

RB: LT, Gore, Portis, Norwood, Turner, Jacobs

WR: Evans, Calvin, Javon, Clayton

TE: Lee

...

Have been offered Gates/Chatman for Jacobs/Lee.

Not a big fan of Jacobs, but getting to like Lee a lot. However, Gates is Gates, and Chatman will be solid to finish this year, although not keeper material.

Should I do it?

this is a tough one. imo, you will have a tough time keeping any of the four players in question, with Gates the best player of the group. I think I would do it just for the fact that he upgrades the starters. For this reason, I would do that deal. Jacobs will never see the field with your good RBs.
