2012 fantasy football roster discussion

[nrodgers]

dude in that league is looking to trade brent celek for another TE would you offer chandler or fleener for him or stick with those two?

 

[Rossibreath]

damn, you would think nfl.com would have their shit together, lol. I can understand them listing FA players currently not on a roster, but retired players?? yahoo doesn't have them listed

One of the league's I'm in still has Jerry Rice available

You guys ever buy into some other X factors?

By X factors I mean:
3yr WR
Contract Years
etc

I personally am a big believer in contract years. Which is why I bought in to Reggie Bush and Wes Welker. Them fools are playing for a pay day and you know will be going 110%. Not to mention I thought Reggie looked great in Hard Knocks - great shape, great focus, etc.

And to hop on to my other X facotr (3yr WR), I took a flier on Brandon LaFell. If Cam is the truth, he could have a breakout year.

And according to everything I read, thoughts from KC say Peyton-Hills is ready for a comeback year and could split 50/50 with Jamal while getting goal line carries.

I used to stick straight to player ranking but after demolished the last few years I decided to try something different. We will see if it works.

My 2nd and last money league team I drafted last night. 10 teams, I had 10th pick.

QB - Michael Vick
WR - Calvin Johnson
WR - Brandon Lloyd
WR - Reggie Wayne
RB - Darren McFadden
RB - Michael Turner
TE - Jason Witten
K - Jason Hanson
DEF - Baltimore

BN - RB Trent Richardson (I took Richardson in the 3rd round, then accidently took Turner, with the next pick, leaving me with 3 good RB's in the first 4 rounds)

BN - TE Brent Celek (Took him with my last pick to play while Witten recovers
BN - WR Denarius Moore
BN - QB Robert Griffin III
BN - WR Justin Blackmon
BN - RB Jacquizz Rodgers

I like my team. I can use Richardson or Turner as trade bait. Or plug in the back with the better match-up each week. Not too sure what to think of Wayne this year. He is getting old, but last year he didnt have a QB to throw to him and he still almost put up 1,000 rec. yards.

You can stack a team in 8 team leagues.

12 team leagues is where you have to start taking fliers on unknown guys.

Ronnie Brown (with Ryan Mathews out) against the Raiders

i dont really trust any carolina rb since newton can run himself. Id personally go with ronnie brown at the raiders. i just picked him up thinking bout starting him this week instead of donald brown

 

[savage]

nrodgers, you starting Lynch this week?

 

[Pansas]

[nrodgers]

nrodgers, you starting Lynch this week?

nah in my 3 leagues i have him in ima go with:

reggie bush
frank gore
michael bush

 

[Meta4iCAL]

this guy wants to trade me Victor Cruz for Greg Jennings. should I do it?

PPR league

I'm leaning towards no

 

[savage]

nah in my 3 leagues i have him in ima go with:

reggie bush
frank gore
michael bush

Lynch is expected to play in this game, too. I already named him my starter earlier this week, glad he's expected to play, just hope he'll put up good points for me, but most of all help contribute to a Seahawks victory.

 

[DubbC415]

didnt play pierre garcon in favor of crabtree, demairyius thomas and larry fitzgerald...hope they make up for it cuz garcon is having a pretty good game

 

[Joey]

Garcon went crazy

 

[Rossibreath]

I started Ben Tate over CJ Spiller as a fill in for Ryan Matthews. Oops. I still won tho. And I got McFadden left tonight so I can pile on more points. All my opponents guys are done and I'm already winning.
