Re: Trade proposal

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.

Re: Trade proposal

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.

Re: Trade proposal

Yeah, I'm with you on that one. I'm going to go with Jackson just so I can further my NFL Fantasy Executive of the year award that I've given myself, for picking up Vick, Orton, Hillis and now Jackson off of waivers this year.

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

Re: Trade proposal

Yep this weekend sunk my fantasy season

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.

Re: Trade proposal

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.

Re: Trade proposal

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.
