What is/was your strategy to dig yourself out of the hole?

get doug martin in the lineup, get some points from dez, and most importantly quit playing the highest scoring team every week.

I wish I knew. I sat Russell Wilson last week (for Stafford against Atlanta) and it cost me the win. I have the most points scored against me in my league and there is not much you can do about that. I literally am expecting to go winless for the season

Two years ago I came out of the draft with on paper a team that should have DOMINATED.  Started 0-7, literally faced the highest scoring team in 6 of the first 7 weeks, and in week 3 I scored 3rd highest and faced the second highest.  NOTHING you can do.  Don't give up, in redraft play the spoiler - in dynasty sell off pieces for the future at a premium if you can.

With FBG 10-second primer, I felt comfortable moving up to 5 leagues (that's not a lot for some here, I know). 

Best part about being in multiple leagues is that each week, at least one of your teams is going to win (you hope). Concentrate on the positive!

I took over an orphan team (12 team league) which was auto drafted from the 1 spot.

not even close to winning a game yet and way behind in total points

I got hit by injuries. 

My strategy was to drop all my rb3 wr4 type players that are easily replaced on the waiver wire with high upside stashes.

Thus way if Foreman Kamara Mack ASJ etc... hit they are on my bench and I am not competing to get them.

Have to think 2 weeks ahead for matchups to ensure I get what I need for that game. 

No guarantees this works but beats having guys on my bench who have no upside and who there are guys available equally good but with better matchups.  This way my bench expands to the WW.

Too late to do anything about it now, but the strategy is wholesale changes focused on winning this week. If you've got a stud but holes in your lineup elsewhere, you've got to trade the stud to fill them. If you've got players with poor matchups this week, you need to trade them for players with good matchups. Next week, even at 1-3, if you have a starter on bye try to trade him for a comparable player not on bye. I've tried to focus on acquiring TB and Mia players since their bye is past (and Mia ones have a good matchup this week). My team is 0-3 because I traded for the top two picks before the draft. Lost DJ, and Bell wasn't carrying my team to cover what I gave up to get both of them. So I've made four trades this week, including giving up Bell. I changed seven of my players. Still hope to make one of two trades, but time is running out. Don't know if it will work out, but I'm putting all my effort into winning this week.

A Bell/Crowell/Hilton/Demarius start hasn't gone so well thus far. Staying patient with the top of my draft and much more speculative with the end of my bench.

 

[Courtjester]

I was feeling so good about my team and I just suck terribly this year. L.Bell/Crowell/Abdullah have just killed me and then throw in the loss of Olsen. Ugghh... 

 

[need2know]

Nothing you can do.  Don't sweat it.  So much luck involved.

not much you can do when you play ajayi over kamara. just seems there are so many more inept offenses this year then the past.
