always feel like I get burned not playing a guy who is starting but "banged up" i.e. Gates this week.

the rule is: if you start a guy who is banged-up, he will either not play or barely play. if you bench a guy who is banged-up, he will score 3 TDs.

My team: http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/clubhouse?leagueId=525972&teamId=6
So this point in the season I'm second place in the league, and I've got some killer players (only lack of depth is at QB). Briefly for those who don't want to click the link, I've got Arian Foster, AP, LeSean McCoy, Mike Williams (Sea), Miles Austin, Mike Wallace (Pit), Steve Smith (Carolina), and Lee Evans. (I also have Anthony Armstrong + Nate Burleson.) I feel like I can dish out Lee Evans and maybe someone like Mike Williams or even Anthony Armstrong for a strong starting option, but I stink at doing trades. I'm soliciting any advice. Another team offered DeAngelo Williams for Lee Evans + Mike Williams, but I'm iffy on DW being a legit starter this year. What do you guys think? Any trades you can recommend me pursuing or should I sit on what I've got? I always feel like I blow it around this time of the year, either by making a stupid trade that I didn't need to do (I dished out Steve Slaton two years ago which ended up costing me the league championship) or missing a great opportunity to unload excess decent guys for a real starter.

I had DW in both of my leagues and I finally just dropped him off in one because he's dead weight. I'd keep Lee Evans, actually, because Ryan Fitzpatrick not only likes to throw, but he's pretty good at it.

DW is still a good back but he and Stewart can't do much until they establish a consistent passing game.

Blount, maybe? Not much of a sleeper anymore but might still be available in your league?
― Mordy, Tuesday, 2 November 2010 22:17 (thirteen years ago) link
Steve Johnson (Bills) has had a TD in the last five games, and usually gets a fair amount of yards. xp

i never had enough focus to play two leagues (my rl league of record + ilx league) which wasn't really fair to ilx bc i inevitably dropped out of updating roster midway thru season :(
