I'd go with Sproles. Carolina is giving up crazy points to RBs. Even though that may mean Ingram / Thomas get more than Sproles, I still think Sproles should do well this week in a game that will be high scoring.

Foster / CJ > AP / White by a lot right now. I'd take the downgrade at QB for that any day. Especially since it's easier to work a trade that improves your QB spot than it is to upgrade at RB or WR.

I agree. Who wins this:

Adrian Peterson for Freddie Jackson and Steve Smith

[Mushtaq23]

Start or sit?

DeAngelo Williams vs NO or Joseph Addai vs KC.

And which two out of Nate Washington (@PIT), Pierre Garcon (KC), Antonio Brown (TEN) and Mario Manningham (SEA).

[NotRickJames]

My only regret about fnatasy this year was not accepting a trade offer for Shonn Greene. :(

In my league, Steve Smith is the #3 WR and Jackson is the #6th best RB, with Peterson being the #9th best RB.

I'd do it. Peterson will get more points than Jackson, but not both. Smith is playing out of his mind with Newton and Jackson is playing like a stud too.

Who would you guys trade, Rob Gronkowski or Jermichael Finley?

edit: also, would you give up James Starks for Sidney Rice?

For the TE's I would look at offers for both. When you have two great options, you trade the one with more perceived value.

As for Starks and Rice, it depends on the rest of my depth.

I have the following players (PPR league):

RB Darren Sproles
RB LeGarrette Blount
RB Mike Tolbert
RB Felix Jones
RB Jonathan Stewart
RB James Starks

WR Calvin Johnson
WR Vincent Jackson
WR Percy Harvin
WR Denarius Moore

Honestly, I would be faster to drop Stewart. He's only getting 10 - 12 touches a game, and Newton is their goal line running back.

[holt_bruce81]

I don't understand how I'm 1-3

my team.....

QB- Matt Stafford
RB- Chris Johnson
RB- Peyton Hillis
RB/WR- Shonn Greene
WR- Roddy White
WR- Dez Bryant
K- Stephen Gostkowski
DEF- Bucs/Bengals

It's not really a bad team IMO, I mean I don't know maybe I just don't pay enough attention to the matchups. My Bench is.....Matt Shaub, Ryan Grant, Michael Crabtree, Lance Kendricks, Antonio Brown, Torrey Smith

The dude I'm facing is 4-0 and scored 75 more points than i did last week and has almost 200 more points than I do in the league so far. His team...

QB- Mike Vick
RB- Felix Jones
RB- Beanie Wells
WR- AJ Green
WR- Hakeem Nicks
RB/WR- Sidney Rice
TE- Jimmy Graham
K- Alex Henery
DEF- Houston

All of his guys are producing, all of my guys.....really aren't besides a handful. Should I be in panic mode or should I just let it ride out? I know I'm going to lose this week I mean Nicks is facing Seattle's secondary and Sidney is going up against the Giants' which is terrible.

I really want to get rid of Shonn Greene but whats a good offer for him you think? I'm looking at maybe a WR to play in the Flex position. Maybe a Shonn Greene and Michael Crabtree fooooooor Maclin? ahhhh I want Maclin.

[sbh15]

if you can get maclin for greene and crabtree someone in your league is an idiot. i'm actually surprised you're even 1-3 with that team. johnson, hillis, and greene have all sucked so far. your wr's are ok, but your bench is just awful. definitely try to find some better backups. you might not have a choice but to sell low on cj2k to improve your roster

If the Fred/Smith owner accepts that he should be banned from FF for life.

I'd go Addai. The Colts have been trying to run more and KC is pretty bad at stopping it (and anything else, really.) Give DWill one more week, as he looks like he's picking up. NO has a decent run D, though.

I just moved him in a ppr league - thankfully. He's just not good and the Jets Oline is poor, too. Yahoo has him as un-*******-droppable for some asinine reason. I traded Greene & Daniels for McCluster & Finley. :)

I would make that deal with your lineup. Starks is going to be back and forth as the 1a / 1b in the RBBC in Green Bay and no RB is going to be studly in that offense anyway. Make the move and hope Rice can be reasonably productive in the bye weeks for you. Stewart / Tolbert / Starks are all pretty much equal, imo. Losing any one of the 3 makes no difference.

Yikes . . . yeah, not a bad team on paper, but they've all produced one good game each so far. I don't see any value for you in trade aside from Stafford right now and maybe Dez since he's a Cowboy - hype machine! CJ is on the rise, Hillis should come back strong (and getting more touches) and, if the Jets Oline can get it together, Greene may have some value going forward.

With Schaub on the bench, I'd try to move a QB. See if you get any bites by putting Stafford / Schaub / Dez / Greene on the block for a 2 for 1 deal getting you a better RB for that flex spot; a WR upgrade if the deal includes Dez, and / or a TE upgrade (but that is probably on the wire.)

Wire targets: Cruz / Jacoby Jones / Walter and any RB not snapped up today (Ridley / Torain)

[sbh15]

definitely target torain on the waiver wire. he's on a bye which tends to make people stay away, but fresh off of the bye he gets philadelphia, carolina, and then buffalo, some nice looking matchups for a rb.

also, when healthy (a big factor) and when receiving the bulk of the carries, torain is a pretty solid rb. his 16 game averages for last season were 1158 yards, 6 touchdowns, 29 receptions, 200 yards, and 3 touchdowns. that would be 212 points in ppr.

i just went through those numbers and made myself very happy that i got him of waivers this week. only dropped one spot in the priority list to do it, too.

[RufusMcDaniel]

Ok so this guy offered me two trades....in both trades I receive Aaron Rodgers and give up Vincent Jackson and Jason Witten....I'm going to accept because my QBs right now are Kolb, Ben and Peyton....sooo I need one. The other part of the deal is the WR I receive....Preston Parker or Johnny Knox?

[Complex]

Should I trade Stafford,Sporles,Moss for Vick and Steve Smith(car)?

Vick gets hurt alot but I have feeling Stafford will not keep this up.

or

Stafford,Darius Moore,Sporles,Fred Davis for Brees and AP?

QB: Stafford
RB:McFadden.Wells,Kendall Hunter,Lynch,Sporles,Torrain
WR:Colston,Mike Williams(TB),Calvin Johnson, Roddy White,Darius Moore,Santana Moss, and Mike Sims Walker
TE: Gates,Cook and Fred Davis
K: Gould
Def: Tennessee

1 QB
2 WR
2 RB
2 W/R

its not a PPR league

if it's not ppr, jump on the 2nd one. stafford and brees are putting up similar numbers, but brees is definitely a safer bet. plus stafford is still an injury risk. aside from those two, which is a push, you're basically geting ap for moore, sproles, and davis. that's a great buy low. if it is ppr, see if you can't get more in return even, because sproles has put up sick ppr numbers.

[holt_bruce81]

I'm trying to package a deal for Julio Jones

He really needs a Quarterback and I have Schaub on my bench. Maybe him and a 3rd or 4th receiver? or would it take more than that?

Tough to truly gauge how much your giving up without seeing ur roster, but that looks like way too much on the surface. AP is stuck on a terrible team that has to play from behind and will be starting a rookie QB soon. Sproles is a boss in PPR, Stafford is sick with it, Davis is a good TE and Denarius Moore has a chance to score every week

Dont do that trade

[jayceheathman]

3 out of the 4 weeks I have missed out on picking up a RB through waivers because someone has a better waiver wire that also wants the same player.

[Mr. Goosemahn]

I was offered Eric Decker, AJ Green, and Beanie Wells for Vincent Jackson and Jonathan Stewart.

Thoughts?

PPR league, too.

[bantx]

Ok so I have Ray Rice and it's his bye week I picked up Ryan Grant and Mike Tolbert off Waiver who should i start?
