Fantasy Football 2009: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em, Trade 'Em

[Weltall]

Whoever I play next week in 20 man gets a free win. I'm not dropping players to pick up non-bye week players.

I just noticed I have only made 2 moves in the league, am overall 2nd, and other people have mostly made 7-12 moves and are pretty pitiful o.O Drafting means so much .-.

...Congrats? Maybe you haven't gotten unlucky with injuries yet?

[Plow]

Yah, this is in response to Volc's post on league forum too:

The only real problem I see with the roster setup is how incredibly difficult it is to recover from injury. Personally I got lucky as shit and got against low scoring teams during the time my top 2 receivers were out and I had terribad backups, and also coincided with my qb and rb bye week.

Others, however, have not been so lucky.

We'll see how things turn out, there's a long time left in the season. The thing I really enjoy about the 2 rb setup is how it takes a committee from useless crap sitting untouched all year to useful subs. I'm thinking maybe next year a little more points for return stuff, to make the raw return yardage guys more consistent fill-ins.

Ok I've got another decision to make this week. Pick 2 of the following:

Tim Hightower v. The Delhommes
Miles Austin v. Seahawks
Nate Washington v. Jaguars
TJ Whosyourmama v. Cowgirls
Sproles v. Raiders



Right now I'm leaning towards Hightower and Miles Austin, but I'm really not sure if I should work Housh in this week with a rested Hassleback tossing the football to him.

BGP sucks, I have the best record, the most points by a lot, and I'm in third place...seeding by division record alone is retarded.

[Weltall]

Miles and Hightower.

And actually, my tight end has been out the whole year (Scaife), my 2nd QB got benched (Quinn), my #2 RB got hurt and has been out the whole year (Felix), and my #2 WR might as well have been out the whole year (Owens).

You know what? You suck

I would also like to thank Carson Palmer for fucking up my chances of a comeback in BGW.

Asshole.

How do you guys feel about this trade? It's a PPR league, and my Current RB are:

Adrian Peterson
Pierre Thomas
Felix Jones
Lesean Mccoy
Darren Sproles
Laurence Maroney

I get:
Marion Barber
Tashard Choice

I give:
Pierre Thomas

Predraft this seems like it would be an amazing deal, and still sort of might be since Pierre isn't doing much and got less touches than Mike Bell last week. My worry is that MB3 hasn't really done anything all year, and Dallas is looking more and more like a 3rb system possibly. The other issue is this trade would stick me with 3 roster spots holding all three of the dallas RB which would hinder me from making more moves. On the other hand, Sproles and Pierre aren't turning out to be the #2 RB I had hoped for, so if the Dallas RB can improve then this deal could really help me out.

Yeah, TO has been a monster this year amirite?

Seriously though, luck plays more of a role in 20man with injuries. You've just been lucky as hell and giving yourself way too much credit...as usual, lol.

[Headspace]

Two bad he has to settle for #2.

Best part about this quote...Welt's team was autodrafted.

Meh. Ever since he started claiming he accurately projected Smith's numbers going down this year (based on what he thought were variables that were actually constants) I've ignored anything he's got to say FF wise.

The autodraft has treated me well in 20 man and BG West thus far too lol. Can I claim I'm a drafting genius?

[Gadritan]

Btw, fuck Smitty for getting 99yrds and Ward for getting 3 the week I finally started Ward ahead of Smith -.-'

[Akiyama]

BGP sucks, I have the best record, the most points by a lot, and I'm in third place...seeding by division record alone is retarded.

Yeah, I noticed that. I'm still in first there, lol. I'm like.. the third/forth best team. Oh well! It's like playing in the NFC West; you take what you can get.

The only league I really deserve my ranking is in BGE. D:

[Weltall]

Ummm..my team was not autodrafted in 20 man fool.

Good try though.

Also, all my Steve Smith comments were based on KEEPING him vs. Boldin.

My 2QB team was autodrafted because I forgot about it, and I don't even know who is on my team because I don't play autodraft teams. You can ignore my fantasy posts all you want, but out of about 16-18 fantasy leagues I have only placed out of top 3 in 1 league EVER.

Btw - I am right on that so far too and Boldin has even been injured virtually the season. At the time I made the comparisons, most people on the board agreed with my keeping Boldin over Smith. I'll draft Steve Smith next season when he is on a good team.

Good try to both of you.

i wanna hang myself. I drafted Thomas Jones but dropped him in week three so that I could pick up Pierre Thomas on waivers. How was I to know he'd take it personally by stepping up his game and becoming a top 5 RB? Tommy, I made a stupid mistake! I shoulda had faith in you. Please forgive me! (Or at least don't kill my team this weekend when I play against you.)
