If the players not playing were put in that week, I would punish a little or at least 1 time warning. Our league has 20% of our dues going toward the highest 1 week score of the year. This avoids the tanking pretty well.

definitely collusion. Go punch him in the face, or do nothing. Not much you can do, except not play in the league next year. I have a bad commish too and am just not going to play again next year (even though I will probably win the league.)

crap, well now I might have to dump Henry to pick up a WR and a TE maybe. Maybe go w/o a te.

Taylor is doing his best Big Ben impression. Check out his home/road splits. Crazy. This is a road game.

Will he play? If so, how much impact will he have? Will they put him straight into the x?

Thanks exactly. I was going to trade the Rodgers owner a couple of weeks ago for Matt Ryan and Jay Ajayi. He said no. He had even worse running backs. He had started w/ David Johnson and the Dalvin Cook, but w/ them out he really needed a RB. I wish he would have accepted trade so I could have laughed in the faces of the other jealous owners when they vetoed that trade. He's one that vetoed the recent trade and he gave his reason for rejecting my trade was because he didn't want to help the 4-0 owner. Hopefully, they get some bad kharma. If Hopkins gets hurt, I will laugh at them again.

My commissioner (who I don't think in 10 years has even ever made the playoffs), said I made a move because I didn't roster a defense. The reason: I was 12th for the waiver wire (5-0) at the time. For the waiver wire, I set my #1 priority for Washington Def. at home against SF. Someone else picked them up, I had my #2 priority as Adrian Peterson, #3 as Jerick McKinnon (he had 19 pts. prior week), #4 priority as Nelson Agholar. So not only was I last priority, I was last in each round of waiver pick ups and he says I'm hoarding players and should have picked up a defense. I show him the denied waiver request for Washington Defense, and he says I should have taken another. I said I didn't think all the owners were dumb enough to let me get all 3 of the players, and that I would still have 1 of my 3 waiver pick ups for the week available, and if I didn't get a defense in the case I got all 3 of those guys I was OK w/ it. He was just belligerent. I then tried to trade a guy Adrian Pederson for a defense, but he didn't want to. I told the commish I wanted a defense and wasn't going to try to lose a game because I was hoarding players, but he wasn't having it. I won by 18 without a defense anyway. He brought up my complaint of prior years with owners not setting their rosters and making easy wins for other owners getting into the playoffs. (injured players or others on a bye week). I told him that was an entirely different situation and I had proof x2 that I was trying to get a defense. I think he was being a ! What do you think? Then, this week I have a bunch of good RB's (Hunt, Elliot, Ajayi, McKinnon, Peterson, and D. Henry) and can only start 2. So, I want to trade one to another team and come to an agreed trade of Ajayi and Martavis Bryant for Deandre Hopkins and E. Ebron (who I would drop for a defense). Seems pretty fair, definitely not collusion. The other guy has horrible running backs and Ajayi would definitely be his #1. The commish has shirked his responsibility and given veto power to the whole league such that if any 3 players veto a trade it doesn't go through. 6 owners veto it, they say they don't want the 6-0 team to get any better. So, most just veto all trades for other people in our league for the same reason. We've had like one approved trade in several years because of this stupid rule. (I argued trades are part of the fun of FF and it was ruined by him) I tried to tell him about the veto being for cases of collusion, but he wasn't hearing it. Commish is an idiot, right? My team: QB- M. Ryan, T. Taylor (start 1) RB- Hunt, Elliot, Ajayi, McKinnon, Peterson, and D. Henry (start 2) WR- Fitzgerald, Agholar, M. Bryant, C. Hogan, and K. Benjamin (start 3) TE- Gronk (start 1) K- Gr. Gano Def- empty

If you have space on your bench: Rawls. His upside is way higher. If he can come back healthy and has a good game, he will get work horse carries. Lacy is garbage. Weight down or not, he is slow and plodding. They still seem to like him in short yardage like 1 or 2 yards. He could vulture goal line carries, but only if inside the 2 (not the 3 or 4). Rawls will likely be a 2 down back and get 80-90 percent of carries. I would guess Rawls 16-18 carries, Lacy 3-4 carries, McKissic 2-3 carries and 2 receptions, Procise 4-5 receptions. That would be on average and could vary game to game.

Definitely Powell. w/ Forte out, this one seems easy. Please check my WR post.

Both have tasty match ups on paper. Is Cam too cold? Will Benjamin or McCaffrey be what Belicheck takes away? Will Benjamin be the focus of offense? Which Tampa D is the real one. Worst against WRs. Do they have too many targets w/ Sheppard, Engram, OBJ, and B. Marshall. So Please help, Brandon Marshall or Kelvin Benjamin?

I would say you'd be selling low. His price will only go up, and no one will be able to afford him soon. Hold Henry. He has a great o-line, and lots of talent around him. He is the goal line back as a floor, and his ceiling is huge if Murray stays out, or if Henry just passes him up.

Interesting they lost a couple of their linemen and that line doesn't look so great anymore and look what happens.

From Seattle: No. The o-line is horrible. If anyone watched the GB game it was historically bad. They don't spend and patch things together. They have a great o-line coach, so normally they make it work in the 2nd half of the season. The defense is worth owning. Carson looks good, and I think Pete doesn't care who carries it (competition). Baldwin eventually. Wilson, has a decent floor w/ rushing yards.

I have Hunt, Zeke, Ajayi, and keeping McFadden. Not just the 6 games, but I don't trust Zeke not to do another stupid thing to get suspended even on top of what is looming.
