good call on moore
Cedric Benson vs. Chicago or Steve Slaton vs Niners? OPO
― Does the hole come standard or did you have to special order it (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 20 October 2009 19:51 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm feeling Slaton is due for a big game.
My turn:Cadillac Williams vs. New England, Jonathan Stewart vs. Buffalo, or Fred Jackson vs. Carolina? OPO
― Mordy, Tuesday, 20 October 2009 19:53 (fourteen years ago) link
i'd go stewart
― suggest friend (hmmmm), Tuesday, 20 October 2009 20:10 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah running on buffalo is something that should work--their front is so small and carolina's still a good running team.

wrong thread
I have Drew Brees and Ben Roethlisberger in my money league. Should I try and get a #2 WR (which I desperately need. I've been going with Torry Holt and Hakeem Nicks all season) for Big Ben? Or is the possibility of injury to my boy Brees too great?
― Mr. Snrub, Tuesday, 20 October 2009 21:13 (fourteen years ago) link
I'd def trade Ben away for a #2 WR. First of all, the difference between QB's isn't too high, unless you're maybe talking about the top 1-3 (of whom you've already got one). Hell, I'd trade Brees AND Ben for someone like Orton and grab some superplayers. Top ranked QB's are for chumps.

Trade Big Ben for a #2 receiver + a lesser backup QB
― Your heartbeat soun like sasquatch feet (polyphonic), Tuesday, 20 October 2009 21:37 (fourteen years ago) link
no no, do not trade brees. if you've got a dude who could throw for 40 tds, you keep him imo. maybe you trade him away for an underrated mostly-sure thing like schaub + another first round level guy, but otherwise no.
― access flap (omar little), Tuesday, 20 October 2009 21:57 (fourteen years ago) link
The problem with trading Roethlisberger is here's the highest-ranking free agent quarterbacks in my league: Trent Edwards, Kevin Kolb, Seneca Wallace, Matthew Stafford, Byron Leftwich, Josh Johnson. So if I lose Brees for the year I am absolutely fucked.
― Mr. Snrub, Wednesday, 21 October 2009 00:25 (fourteen years ago) link
who's the saints backup qb? it's a good system, i imagine whoever is behind him would be at least decent.
― access flap (omar little), Wednesday, 21 October 2009 00:49 (fourteen years ago) link
Mark Brunell
― Mr. Snrub, Wednesday, 21 October 2009 00:56 (fourteen years ago) link
This is why I advocate doing a 2 for 1.

Battle of the Williams:
Ricky Williams at Jets or DeAngelo Williams at Cards?I'm leaning toward Ricky.
Also, would you take LDT and Mario Manningham for Deangelo? I also have Benson, Slaton and Ricky in a 2RB league, soooo....
― I AM NOT ONE TO PURSUE GAME, MY FRIEND - NO, INDEED. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 14:40 (fourteen years ago) link
I'd go with Ricky, because the Dolphins burned the Jets on the ground last game, and the Giants had shit for ground yards against the Redbirds on Sunday.
Benson will be steady production all season (barring injury), and you can alternate Slaton and Ricky based on matchups. Is someone trying to trade you LDT and Manningham or are you trying to deal them yourself? If you have Deangelo already, keep him.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 14:47 (fourteen years ago) link
they're trying to trade for Dangelo. I'm loaded at RB; WR is Vincent Jackson, Johnny Knox, Sidney Rice and Andre Caldwell, which in a 3 WR league is kinda thin... would prefer to deal one top 20 RB for one top 20 WR, but no one is buying. Manningham is meant to answer that but feast or famine Eli has me doubting him.
― I AM NOT ONE TO PURSUE GAME, MY FRIEND - NO, INDEED. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 28 October 2009 15:13 (fourteen years ago) link
Dunno I feel about Manningham now that Nicks is back.

(dunno HOW I feel)
i'm going ricky by same reasoning. Little nervous DeAngelo has a blowout game and I end up a schmuck.

in the problems you dont mind having category - start 3 of the following:

― johnny crunch, Friday, 30 October 2009 12:16 (fourteen years ago) link
i'd leave out addai, personally.

it's tuff tho, last stuff i read (a day or 2 ago) said donald brown would be out this wk
― johnny crunch, Friday, 30 October 2009 14:00 (fourteen years ago) link
Guys, my season is kinda fucked. Cooley is out for the season, Westbrook has suffered a concussion, T.O. was never a good WR pick...
― Mordy, Friday, 30 October 2009 19:29 (fourteen years ago) link
I am starting slaton/ricky/forte. slaton and forte are both vs terrible run D's.
xpost those are good picks for 2007
― bnw, Friday, 30 October 2009 19:33 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm currently winning 127 to 111. He still has Brees and Saints D to play, I still have Devery Henderson. Any chance I win this one?
― Mordy, Monday, 2 November 2009 19:54 (fourteen years ago) link
no.
― I AM NOT ONE TO PURSUE GAME, MY FRIEND - NO, INDEED. (forksclovetofu), Monday, 2 November 2009 19:54 (fourteen years ago) link
if brees tosses a couple TDs to devery, you might be in luck. however devery is feast or famine and he's just as likely to score 2 pts as he is 20. i do not, i hate to admit, like your chances.
― jØrdån (omar little), Monday, 2 November 2009 19:55 (fourteen years ago) link
i hate to admit it because i'm counting on devery (and curtis lofton) in ilnfl to not only make up 11 pts in deficit but to also score enough pts to cancel out any additional pts michael turner might score. i'm screwed tbqf.
― jØrdån (omar little), Monday, 2 November 2009 19:57 (fourteen years ago) link
Shockey's been stealing WR touchdowns of late, so yeah... echoing the above negative sentiments.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 2 November 2009 19:58 (fourteen years ago) link
I'd give you a 20% chance...the saints would have to have a horrible, horrible game *and* devery would have to do pretty well at the same time.
― iatee, Monday, 2 November 2009 20:00 (fourteen years ago) link
If LeSean McCoy hadn't broken off that big one at the end of the Iggles game, I'd be more like 30 points up. Much more comfortable margin. But I can't exactly be angry for the Iggles kicking ass, right?
― Mordy, Monday, 2 November 2009 20:03 (fourteen years ago) link
Ricky williams(me) for Antonio Gates (him) when I have Benson and Deangelo Williams at RB is a good call, right?

i say yes
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Monday, 9 November 2009 15:15 (fourteen years ago) link
i did too; NOW he wants to do Matt Ryan, DeAngelo and Ricky Williams for Gates and Peyton.I don't think i dare to eat this peach
― because she looks awesome, like in the face (forksclovetofu), Monday, 9 November 2009 18:57 (fourteen years ago) link
Don't get rid of DeAngelo in any trade.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 9 November 2009 19:11 (fourteen years ago) link
NOW he's grasping. pass.

Okay, tough one here and it's important cuz if i win i'm in the playoffs:Pick two - Cedric Benson OR Larry Johnson vs Detroit, Deangelo Williams vs Tampa Bay and Steve Slaton vs Jacksonville.
I'm leaning to Slaton and Williams because of weird injuries and timesharing but DETROIT
― Drama Mama's and Papa's too! (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 2 December 2009 23:51 (fourteen years ago) link
i'd go benson and williams, but keep your eye on the gameday news w/r/t the cincy backfield. they're saying he will start, though.

yeah, see if i field him and LJ vultures two or three touchdowns and i end up with an 8pt day ahma be FURIOUS
― Drama Mama's and Papa's too! (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 3 December 2009 22:25 (fourteen years ago) link
btw I feel u - I'm choosing between Benson, Ricky Williams, Forte @STL, and Kevin Smith
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Thursday, 3 December 2009 22:26 (fourteen years ago) link
that's tuff! i think Forte is a must, but I dunno about the rest.
― Drama Mama's and Papa's too! (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 3 December 2009 22:33 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah tuff choices forte could easily go off for 28 yards on the ground and another 37 through the air!
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Friday, 4 December 2009 00:09 (fourteen years ago) link
also fred jackson and jamaal charles are mysteriously still avail in my league
really tempted to bench forte for jackson but the rams defense is too appealing
― bnw, Friday, 4 December 2009 00:17 (fourteen years ago) link
