Kelvarr 13 Posted September 2, 2011 So I'm in a 14 Team League. I had the unfortunate spot of picking #1 overall, snake draft. Here is what I ended up with: Start: QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, RB/WR, TE, K, Def (Starters in Bold), .5 PPR QB: Vick, Flacco RB: Peterson, Jackson, Daniel Thomas, Pierre Thomas, Tomlinson WR: Jennings, Williams (TB), Crabtree, Breaston TE: Graham, Hernandez, Kendricks K: Barth Def: Minnesota Leave link, I'll rate yours.

No-brainer, right? Leave link, I'll rate yours. You needed to post a thread to ask??!?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelvarr 13 Posted September 2, 2011 You needed to post a thread to ask??!?!? Well, it is a RMT thread...I just wanted to make sure. I live in Metro Detroit and have been drinking the Stafford Kool-Aid (when he's healthy) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stewburtx8 67 Posted September 2, 2011 Trades like this just blow my mind. Why would he draft Michael Vick with a first round pick, and then trade him for Stafford who I am guessing you didn't take until the 5th or 6th round? He could of just took a RB or WR in the first round and then "reached" for Stafford in the 4th round if he wanted him THAT bad. Hell, he could of reached for him in the 3rd round and been better off than making this trade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dunno...there still is a possibility the trade won't go through...the other members will probably veto the trade. I believe I took Stafford in the end of 6th or beginning of 7th.

Go long 0 Posted September 2, 2011 Thanks for mine. Do the trade but it may get vetoed. I do think Stafford will have a very good year but much more upside with Vick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelvarr 13 Posted September 2, 2011 I assume since everyone is commenting on the trade, and not the RMT part, that my team looks good/ok? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bills04 46 Posted September 2, 2011 I think you're going to be hurting each week for the your Flex player. You do know Reggie Bush is "the guy" in Miami, right? What's on your WW for WRs? I'm not thrilled with Branch (NE has too many weapons, INCLUDING two TEs!), nor Breaston (KC will run it a ton, and throw it primarily to Bowe - or J. Charles). Thanks for mine. P.S. YES - trade away Stafford for Vick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martinimike 0 Posted September 3, 2011 first of all thanks for mine. second of all, I don't know who's crazier the guy who wants to trade vick for stafford or the guy who's questioning it. It wouldn't go through in my league but good luck to you. As for your team it looks pretty good but as someone else commented you may need a better flex. I didn't think Bush did much in New Orleans and they were awful when they drafted him. Thomas has a chance but I hear he didn't play very good in the preseason. you may need to watch him for a couple of weeks before you know if you can count on him.

Kelvarr 13 Posted September 6, 2011 Well, somehow, surprisingly, the trade went through! I updated my original post with the new lineup. Maybe it helped that I accepted the trade on the first day of a holiday weekend, and the veto deadline was during the weekend. Here is the list of available WR...Not sure who I could pick up...probably Meachem...but which TE do I drop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelvarr 13 Posted September 6, 2011 On the RB list, there is James Starks (W) and Deji Karim. Starks is on Waivers until Wednesday, but I have the #1 waiver. Should I use it to grab Starks? Derrick Ward is also available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
