ZoomSlowik Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 So, I have an impressive collection of non-productive RB's in one of my leagues. I have to bench at least one of them (my only real flex option at WR is Michael Floyd). Ray Rice vs MIA Lamar Miller vs BAL Eddie Lacy vs DET David Wilson vs PHI The season so far would suggest Wilson is the guy to sit, but with a favorable matchup and Scott gone, he might finally produce. I'm kind of thinking Miller because his lack of touches despite decent production the last few weeks scares me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I was debating starting Fred Jackson over Desean Jackson as the flex today. I went with Desean...which could be a move that hands me a loss this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 3, 2013 -> 08:05 PM) My Jones for Gonzalez trade was vetoed by the league. I've never seen that happen before except in a league where a guy was quitting and trading his guys for nothing to his friends It's an unfair trade... If Gonzalez didn't have that monster game last week, it'd be an awful trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collusion or no collusion, making lopsided trades makes the league less competitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 While we're talking vetos...I'm petitioning against this one Jason Snelling and Matt Shaub for Doug Martin and Brandon Myers. The guy getting Martin is in first place, other guy is 2nd to last....Am I wrong in thinking this is an awful trade? I know Martin hasn't been the world beater like expected but he's still on pace for 1500 yards. That and Jason Snelling is the Falcons 3rd string RB and Shaub might not even make it through the season as the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 QUOTE (scs787 @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 03:17 PM) Who do I start at flex? Rashad Jennings, Willis McGahee, or Fred Jackson? Jackson has the toughest matchup, McGahee has been garbage, and Jennings is a wildcard. Right now I'm leaning towards the wildcard. QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 03:20 PM) I think I would still go Jackson. Best player of the bunch. Sigh, went with Jennings...Why'd I even ask.

Snelling's barely worth a flex play on a bad team and Schaub is a QB2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Oct 3, 2013 -> 08:54 PM) You go get him and play him every week. He is unowned in half the leagues I play in. He is bye week filler only. He is owned in every league I play in. Despite you clearly not being able to see it, there is a difference in being a weekly starter and being un-ownable as you previously suggested. He is a strong WR3 and one with high upside in PPR leagues. I still prefer Shorts to Blackmon, but he should be owned in all but the shallowest of leagues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't think it was fair? So what. It wasn't your team. As long as both managers made the trade in good faith and there was no worry about any collusion or anything else unfair, the trade should be allowed to proceed. I had a trade vetoed last year in a league of mine and it really pissed me off. Thankfully, my two big money leagues have strong veto processes now that makes it tough for a trade to be disallowed.

Jake Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Of course, we're talking about the 58 o-rank player for the 25 o-rank player one being in a much thinner position than the other. Not nearly as obviously bad. Seems like the point of having great players is that you can afford to overpay for players you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Alright boys. Trent Richardson (Seattle D) or Eddie Lacy? (Detroit D) I'm even pondering if I should start Stafford over Brees cause of my Bears bias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
