An (incomplete) list of players done for the year or with severe injuries. Having lost Julio Jones in one league I now get to replace Reggie Wayne in another (it could be worse at least it isn't the same league).

Really sucks for Wayne especially given his age.

Dammit, Cutler and Wayne gone from injuries from my team. And I have no QB at all. The free agency is practically bare as well (Tannehill and Freeman are basically all that's there. And an injured Schaub who's approaching a bye week). Guess I should engineer a trade if possible, but fuck if I know who to target.

Go with Tannehill out of those unappealing options. Fucking yuck though.

Once Wayne gets thrown on IR I'll scoop up Tannehill. I'm also trying to engineer a trade. I was offered Mike Glennon for Mike James (the RB who will replace Doug Martin since he's gone for the season now). I'll take it maybe if nothing else comes my way. I don't particularly need James (I have Charles, Gore, and Stacy to use on their bye weeks).

I would stay the fuck away from Glennon though absent any other options. He's a rookie on a bad team that just got worse. I mean he will have Jackson still. Also Stacy is a bit of an injury risk (though I picked him up too and like him going forward).

Well the guy whom I traded Russell Wilson to also has Roethlisberger and Vick, so I'm trying to spring a trade for Vick. Not giving up much for him though. Offered a lowball of Deandre Hopkins for him, lol. Yeah, I would ideally like someone better than Glennon, even though his 2 fantasy weeks so far have been good (above 30 points in my league in both of them).

Well Peterson laid a fucking egg but I still beat Joe. 25 point win and another top scoring week. 5 game winning streak (6-1) and keeps me 1 game up in first. In my other league I also won my 5th in a row and am in sole possession of 2nd by record (2 games back because the fucking Peyton Manning owner hasn't lost yet). Also because we have a division system and my division is stacked at the top I think I'm in 3rd (since Peyton Manning's team is in 1st). Although in the second league I got a bit lucky (and also unlucky because yet again I had a Wayne, Richardson, and another player, Julius Thomas, going with my match close to won and a projection over 100 and Richardson proceeded to be a pile of useless and Wayne was limited). I spent my first two picks on Spiller and Fucking Richardson but am still in second by record and will be third in points scored after this. Now I get to replace Wayne though. Oh and Peyton Manning user is slightly ahead of my ridiculous scoring pace from last year but hasn't had there big bye week yet and has gotten lucky in the fact that they've had the lowest points against. Last year I was blowing the league away and yet was 4-3.

Need some advice for next week (9). I've got Victor Cruz, Megatron, and Matt Prater on bye that week. I've only got one WR on my bench right now, so I need to pick up both a kicker and a WR. My trouble is that I don't really have any players other than David Wilson that I feel that comfortable letting go. My roster:

QB: Rivers, RG3 (start 1)
WR: Cruz, Green, Megatron, Keenan Allen (start 3)
RB: Spiller, Lamar Miller, Ellington, Stacy, Wilson (start 2)
TE: Gonzalez, J Reed (start 1)

I'm playing matchups with my QBs and that's working out so far. My RBs are weak so I'm hesitant to drop anyone there except Wilson. Which leaves TE. I think Reed has some value, especially to the guy who just lost Finley as his starter. The question is, can I get more for him than what I'd get from the FA pool? The best pickup candidates there are Hopkins (playing IND week 9), Kendall Wright (@STL), and Stevie Johnson (KC :/ ).

Can you play tightends as a flex (I'm guessing not). How big is the league. You can probably get away with dropping Miller and picking him back up unless the league is huge. Obviously drop Wilson. Whose your kicker? Is he really worth holding on to?

No flex spot -- just 3 WR and 2 RB. 10 team league. Prater is my kicker, and I'd like to hold on to him. If I'm gonna drop a RB it's probably going to be Ellington, cause he's also got a bye that week and I may need to start Miller depending on how CJ Spiller looks.

Your RBs read like a list of this year's fantasy busts. Insane WR corps though.

Go Ellington then. I only recommended Miller because I did that in another league knowing I can pick him back up again.

My first two picks in one league were Spiller and Richardson. Reggie Wayne was my 4th or 5th (can't remember). I've got the second best record (don't ask me how)

In a tie for best record in my 14 person league myself, with Cutler as starting QB (only because I traded Russell Wilson) and with Wayne too. I drafted some pretty solid players with my high picks though (Jamaal Charles, Demaryius Thomas and Frank Gore my first 3 picks. Wayne was 4th, traded my 5th Wilson for Jordy Nelson)
