OFFICIAL 2013 FANTASY FOOTBALL TALK

Better upside the rest of the year - 

Julian Edleman or Kenbrell Thompkins ? 

ive got thompkins on a few of my teams. the target count shows they looked for him. 1st game jitters ??? im holding on to him

edelman got his burn when amendola came out. edelmans upside will depend on amedolas health. 

edelman was putting in work early last year before he got hurt, but i chalk that up to belichek trying to keep wes's #'s down so they could lower his $ value once he hit free agency.

Reggie Bush dislocated his thumb and injured his groin yesterday .. he still had a monster game and it doesn't look like it will keep him out but it's definitely something to keep your eyes on.

i wanted to draft reggie but was unable to. he was beasting yesterday and will be beasting, granted he stays on the field. i dont see the lions trusting pettigrew anymore, he's losing those short dump offs to reggie now

 

[certifiedsw]

What exactly was I thinking drafting MJD?!? Good lord dude is a bum. That Jags offense is so disgusting :x

 

[johnnyredstorm]

I'd love to get Reggie Bush on my team, but it'll be tough. Dude's been one of my favorite players since he entered the league, good to see he's finally elevating his game.

 

[nike4kja05]

Trent Richardson had me sad all day.

What the hell happened?

3 Picks by Weeden. Miami didn't respect their passing game which meant 8 in the box.

 

[yungchris504]

I lost by 5 points and I went against a dude who had Peyton. Tsk. However, it gives me a good chance to pick up on this waiver wire. My Flex and RB's suck. Trent Richardson and Giovoni Bernard, along with no one else.

 

[nike4kja05]

Ahh WTF Vereen is out now with wrist surgery. **** Man. He's my flex. Now it's Steve Smith or Bryce Brown.

 

[dont be a menace]

Dez is injured? surprised to see the O next to his name for next week.

and not that it matters since i'm down 60 pts but Owen Daniels or Fred Davis for TE today?

 

[stick]

Reggie Bush owners need to grab Joique Bell if he's available on waivers in your league. He's worth an add even if you don't have Reggie. It doesn't look like Bush is gonna miss any time next week, but if he does in the future, Bell is definitely a worthy replacement. On Saturday someone dropped him in one of my leagues that I have Bush in so he's gonna be my first waiver claim this week. Second will be a TE since Sudfeld stunk it up and is hurt . Hopefully Gronk comes back ASAP so I can get him in the lineup.

 

[JCMojica24]

Tavon for Shorts straight up...yay or nay?

 

[proshares]

How does having Blaine Gabbert posing no threat as a QB and the opposing defense stuffing the box with 8 defenders to stop him mean that MJD is a bum?

bell put up good enough #'s that i can see him being a good flex play. pettigrew's role will be reduced if theres another bad showing again

I'd keep Tavon. That Jags O is not the business.

What's the plan on Lamar Miller owners? lol

Dez suffered a sprained foot. He says he's fine so I'm not sure if he will miss any time. Romo also has bruised ribs.

Owen Daniels.

I'm not sure, but it's a good time to try and fleece Lamar Miller owners, especially if they drafted him high as #2 RB. Not saying he won't turn it around but I already see people abandoning ship .. Guy in my league only has Miller and A.Morris so I offered him Ryan Matthews for V.Jax, hopefully he takes that since he's loaded @ WR with Boldin, Colston, Garcon, Amendola, and V.Jax.

I would take Daniels over Davis today.  Daniels is going against crappy SD, while Davis vs Eagle.  Daniel always 1st or 2nd option for Schaub anyways.

Chad Henne time. Breathe easy MJD/Shorts owners

 

[tpfltxl]

I should have mentioned that I'm a Lamar Miller owner lol.

That's my plan for David Wilson owners though haha

 

[dland24]

If the Texans DST puts up a Week 1 score of 10 or less points, I will have gone 4-0 in my leagues.  Even if not, 3-1 is a great start to the fantasy season!

 

[stick]

Chad Henne time. Breathe easy MJD/Shorts owners

WORD! I was baffled when they said Gabbert was gonna start again this year, and even more baffled when they said he was gonna play week 1 with a broken thumb. That offense didn't look too shabby last year when Henne took over (minus all the picks he threw ). Both Shorts and Blackmon cooked.

 

[jordan2o1]

 
Alright guys. Here's another one.

Yay or Nay:

I get: David Wilson and Jordan Cameron

I give: Eddy Lacy and either Vick Ballard or Emmanuel Sanders

My Team:

QB: Brady

RB: Doug Martin, Shane Vereen, Ballard, Lacy, Montee Ball

WR: Dez, AJ, Sanders, Shorts

TE: Gronk, Sudfeld, Daniels

D/ST: 9ers

K: Dawson.

No redraft, no PPR. 

 

[dland24]

Easy decline IMO.

Easy decline IMO.

care to tell me how?

 

[finallyfamous]

Trent will be fine

 

[biboo]

 
care to tell me how?

I'll explain on his behalf. You're TE already at 1st or 2nd tier. Therefore, the trade for Cameron is contradicted with your draft style (you're hoping Gronk is going to be your starter for the rest of the season). 

As for Wilson and Lacey, Lacey is playing his first NFL game vs one of the tough (if not, one of the best) defense in NFL.  He manages just fine. He will have better upside than Wilson for the rest of the year under Rodger's arm.

You're right. But now look at this:

Vereen is out. Dez now has a sprained foot. Gronk won't come back til like week 3 or 4. So in the mean time, I literally have nothing.

How bout this:

I get: Eric Decker, Victor Cruz, Frank Gore

I give: Dez and Lacy

My Team:

QB: Brady

RB: Doug Martin, Shane Vereen, Ballard, Lacy, Montee Ball

WR: Dez, AJ, Sanders, Shorts

TE: Gronk, Sudfeld, Daniels

D/ST: 9ers

K: Dawson.

No redraft, no PPR.
