Unless they're legit cheating then I don't think trades should be voted down. Also hard to say anything about that deal without the league scoring and their respective teams.

Doesnt make any sense. He kid who traded for garcon and colston already has fitz/nicks/steve smith. He has foster but his only other rb is dangelo williams. He also traded davis with only jared cook as back up. If this trade happened near the end of the season and the team that traded martin/davis was out of a playoff situation it would definitely be ruled unfair. Its so early in the season that this cant be the case. Hes simply a complete moron. The trade is still unfair though. Therefore i dont think it makes a difference.

Whereas I managed to have both Bell and Pierce and was able to start them over Spiller and Richardson in one of my leagues thanks to both Rice and Bush being out. Good thing too because I just won by the skin of my teeth at 0.6 (assuming no adjustments against me) and needed every bit of their points.

just made a trade. I traded jimmy graham and antonio brown for aj green and tony gonzalez. I needed a solid, consistent receiver really bad. aj green's gonna give me at least 7 points every week and most weeks he'll have more than 12 so im really happy with getting him. i already have jordan cameron so i have no problem trading graham and i get a good TE back anyways so if cameron ever tapers off i still have gonzalez.

Is the other player really desparate because this seems like a total steal?

i think he figures he has a really good wr situation and doesn't need to hang on to so many. he'll now have calvin, cobb, boldin, and now antonio brown. graham is also a stud who's as good as any top 5 receiver. he also must have been nervous about tony gonzalez. i know he'll be fine and i'll probably end up flipping him down the road for something else i need. either way i think his team gets better as does mine.

will look something like this:

QB-Stafford
RB-Rice
RB-MJD
RB/WR-Bell
WR-Green
WR-Wallace
TE-Cameron
DEF-Chiefs/Cowboys or whoever has a good matchup

If I had the flex position instead of RB/WR i wouldnt have done the trade and id put cameron in there but its not the case. My RB situation has the potential to get astronomically better if rice and mjd can play up to potential. im not worried about rice getting there but i have my concerns with MJD. took him in the third.

alright someone help me. I've got Witten good to go against the Chargers and Gronkowski more than likely back from injury this week against Atlanta. Who do I start?

How does the rest of your matchup look this week? If you feel like you'll need some home run performances to win it, go with Gronkowski. It wouldn't totally shock me if he went off his first week back. But there's also a fairly large chance that he'll have to shake off some rust. This, combined with the way Tom Brady is playing, and the lack of other weapons in the passing game, would be enough to give me pause with another good option available. Which Witten obviously is.

If you're just trying to give yourself the best chance of putting up a good score than I think Witten is your man.

Chargers have displayed terrible defense so far. Given that you don't know what Gronk would look like safe play is to start Witten.

As for me I'm deciding between Witten and Julian Thomas this week.

I have an advantage across the board this week, with the exception that I'm starting Vick due to Rogers bye. I don't need the home run as I've got about a 30 point edge in projected points which I know means nothing, but I tend to agree with it based on the matchups this week. I haven't had time to watch many games this year so I don't know if Brady hasn't put up the numbers because he's been bad or if it was because a lot of his best weapons have been hurt. Witten's lack of TDs is well known (except for week 1) and is frustrating. I shouldn't be greedy but I'm kinda hoping for more than the 6 points you can basically pencil him in for. Depending on what you guys say about Brady I think I'll just be safe and go with Witten to see a week of Gronk's play before deciding on the rest of the year. The temptation is strong though because this is a game with the second best team in the league after my own and I'd love to be up two on him this early

I have a 5 person keeper league. The bolded are locks. I'm not sure how to fill the other 2. For instance, Bogut , Chandler, Lowry I see as players whose stock is going down. DeRozan's, Henderson and Drummond I think might go up. In fact, I really like Drummond, but am fairly confident I can steal him as a free agent or for a cheap trade. I also like gortat if he can get the minutes. What are your thoughts DDD?

Kyle Lowry, Tor PG
Shaun Livingston, Bkn PG
DeMar DeRozan, Tor SG
Josh McRoberts, Cha PF [Breaking News]
Al Jefferson, Cha C

Andre Drummond, Det C

Any help trying to sort out my mess of a RB situation would be appreciated. I swam against the current while everyone was drafting RBs early and didn't end up with any rock-solid guys (though I'm also laughing at those who thought they were getting rock-solid guys in rounds 1 and 2, and ended up with heretofore busts). Anyway, I've got a lot of guys with potential, untapped for one reason or another. I've got:

- David Wilson. God damn. The Giants O-line is a MESS. But they did just sign John Conner, a pretty beastly FB. He should have a positive impact on both the passing game and the running game. I don't have a lot of confidence in this situation, but if the Giants can get their act together he's got the highest ceiling by far.
- Lamar Miller. He's fine. Not getting the number of opportunities that he should, though.
- Joique Bell. A good player and can obviously be productive in the Lions offense. I was confident starting him last week with Reggie Bush out, and even with Bush back this week, I think he'll still have a relevant role. But it's always dicey starting the #2 guy -- he could totally disappear in a game and the Lions would be fine.
- Ryan Mathews. I dunno man. Just a boring fantasy player this year. Very consistently doing enough to stay on my team, but not enough to feel good about starting him. Could he ever actually be the player that everyone thinks he could be at the start of every year? When I look at his name I just think "7 points."
- Jacquizz Rodgers. Nice little player with Steven Jackson out, but what if the purpose? He might have a good game this year with like, a couple 40-yard scampers. But I don't think I'd ever start him. Thinking about dumping him for a lottery ticket player like Andre Ellington.
- Le'Veon Bell. Finally coming back! But shit...he's on the Steelers. That O-line is as bad as the Giants'. Is their running game garbage because they've been trotting out scrubs for the last 3 weeks or is it hopeless even with a player like Bell in the backfield? I dunno, I just don't know.

I need to start 2 of these clowns, and maybe a 3rd in the Flex spot. My other options for the flex are DeAndre Hopkins and Marlon Brown.
