Ladd,
ReplyDeleteI'm in Dire need of WR help. Would you trade A Rodgers and Lee Evans for Hakem Nicks and Chad Ochocinco? Its even point wise and I have M Cassell and Randy Moss as well.
Thanks!
Ladd,
ReplyDeleteI am in a 10 team Flex WR/RB League. I have Tampa DEF starting this week and I just Dropped the NY Giants DEF to pick up Shonne Greene for some RB Depth. My other RB's are Turner, Foster, Ronnie B, Felix, & Blount. I am hopeful that one of the last 4 RB's will get some traction in the next 4 weeks and have 3 solid RB's going into the playoffs. Would you roll with Tampa or keep both and play the circumstances each week? My WR's are Miles, B Loyld, Harvin, Jennings, and S. Moss
Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteNo freaking way! You don't part with Rodgers, period. Cassel would kill you at QB
craig,
ReplyDeleteLook like you're in good shape roster-wise. Love TB this week (they're my Flier of the Week). You should probably keep NYG D (if not too late), though, because TB is not an every-week play. Like the Shonn pickup, but I would've dropped Felix instead.
