I have been offered
Larry Fitzgerald for Jamaal Charles
I don't have a traditional stud receiver I have Mike Williams(TB), Steve Smith, Hines Ward, and Marques Colston
We start 3 WR and Two RB plus a flex, standard scoring.
My running backs are
Chris Johnson
Rashard Mendenhall
Darren McFadden
Jamaal Charles
Charles was a late draft pick and McFadden was a waiver wire pickup.
Do you do it?
How many WR and RB do you start each week? And which Steve Smith do you have - NYG or CAR?
I'd be shopping all my RBs and looking for a top WR.Quote:

and then
I have been offered Hakeem Nicks for Mendenhall straight up. Do I do that one as well?
So now I have
RB
Chris Johnson
Darren McFadden
Mendenhall
There is nothing left on the waiver wire.
WR
Fitzgerald
Steve Smith NY
Mike Williams TB
Marques Colston
Malcolm Floyd
TE- we start one, and they can be used as a flex as well.
Jacob Tamme
Vernon Davis
I think you are fine at WR now. I wouldn't make any other trades of your RB. One injury and you could be hurting if you trade a RB.
I like the moves you've made.
I'd probably hold on to Mendenhall. If you still had Charles I would have done this deal, but you probably need your backs now.
I forgot to update these thread.
Both trading partners got "better deals", they both agreed over the phone, neither have internet at home, yes there are still people out there. Both sponge internet at work, or at restaurants. They failed to complete trades by 4:30pm(when they get off work), I sent them texts with no response so I moved on.
I took the Mendenhall for Nicks trade
and made this one,
Matt Schaub and Hines Ward for Reggie Wayne and Chad Henne. Henne is flotsam, this is the guy who dropped Malcolm Floyd for Chad Henne.
I depleted my bench, but after Vick's demolition of my team last night, I have dropped to 6th in my league. I have the most points scored against by a wide margin now. There are a couple of guys coming off injury, suspension that are available on the waiver wire now.
I would pick up Vincent Jackson if he's available.
I picked him up on the waiver wire today. One week ahead of the noise. Over the weekend I had to drop Steve Smith NY because of his injury. I picked up Mike Sims Walker. Dropped him today for Vincent JacksonQuote:

I'd rather have Bradshaw.Quote:

Gotta love my Hakeem Nicks for Rashard Mendenhall trade now. Nicks is out for the rest of the fantasy season. This week my opponent had both Steve Johnson and Greg Jennings. I lost by two points.
Yeah, Nicks would be tough to replace through the waiver.
I've got some "who to start" issues this week, but in a good way.
RBs: MJD, Bradshaw, Mcfadden
WRs: Jennings, Fitzgerald, Boldin and Vincent Jackson
Standard Two Backs, Two Wrs and a Flex.
Pretty sure I'm starting all three backs and Jennings. So Boldin, Fitz or Jackson. Like a kid with a new toy I really want to start Jackson, but not sure if he's the best play.
Patrick Crayton has a dislocated wrist. He is out several weeks. Floyd looked good before San Diego sat on the ball, and Gates should be back. I am rolling with Vincent Jackson as my replacement for Nicks. I see Fitz, Boldin, and Jackson as a pickem.Quote:

The fact that Jacobs is getting the majority of the carries isn't helping either.Quote:

I had Vincent Jackson, Reggie Wayne, Chris Johnson, and Mike Williams TB active. Ended up with 6.9 fantasy points.
Malcolm Floyd
Hakeem Nicks
Mike Williams Seattle on the bench.
I still won. VJack hurt but I had Vick, Nate Kaeding and Tamme to pull me through. Luckily the guy I played started TO, Aaron Hernandez and Santana Moss.
Jacobs got 14 carries. Bradshaw got 9 with 4 catches. They are very close to 50/50 in terms of plays, and the only reason it is that close is due to Bradshaw's trouble holding onto the ball this year. Both can be productive fantasy backs, and I would still rather have Bradshaw than Jacobs.Quote:

Luckily I started Vincent Jackson this week, I sat Boldin for him. But now that Rogers is out I need to decide between Jennings and Boldin. What do you guys think?
Tough choice, but I think Boldin is the safer play.Quote:
