Machismo

My team: Mahomes Mixon/Hyde/Henry/Barber OBJ/Hill/Fuller/Ridley/Boyd/Mike Williams/Chris Godwin Burton/Engram 10-team redraft .5/reception Obviously, I'm hurting at RB. Even though there's no guarantees with Bell, do I take the risk and offer OBJ for him? And then would you, if you were me, offer Fuller for Thompson? Then my team would look like this: Mixon/Bell/Hyde/Thompson/Henry/Barber Hill/Ridley/Boyd/Williams/Godwin Do I try to make one or both of these trades? Thanks.

I have a couple of players on BYE this week but do not have backups; I could pickup two players for the week, but am hesitant to drop anyone on my bench. Here's my team (players in parentheses are those on my bench): Brady Bell/Gordon (Booker/Dixon/D. Williams/Henry) Julio/Evans/Hilton (Adams/Fuller) Eifert Bailey Bills D So Brady and Eifert are the two players on BYE. To pickup another QB/TE, I'd probably drop Fuller and one of my RBs (not Booker). Like I said, I'm hesitant to drop anyone, my team is 6-2, and Julio/Evans have already gotten me 53.6 points, so I'm wondering if I can gamble and not pick anyone up? This is the lineup of the team I'm playing against: Newton/D. Murray/Crowell/Beckham/Benjamin/Devante Parker/Kelce/Janikowski/Seahawks D What do you guys think? Should I just ride it out and see what happens? Or if I were to drop players, which ones should I drop? Thanks.

Thanks for the advice. I probably will drop Fuller for a QB. The only problem I see with the Dixon situation is that once he starts playing, he's locked for the week and wouldn't be able to drop him.

I have been offered Leveon Bell for Carlos Hyde and Jay Ajayi. My team is listed below. Do I accept? ---------- 10-team FLEX league; .5pt/rec for WR/TE My team: Brady Gordon/Hyde/Ajayi/Booker/West/Dixon/Henry Julio/Evans/Hilton/Fuller Ertz Bailey Patriots D Thanks!

Dalton

Thanks for the advice. I went ahead and accepted the trade. He also threw in Davante Adams to even out the numbers of the trade. He also had recently dropped Deangelo Williams, so I immediately picked him up to backup Bell.

I'd rank them like this: 1. Jones 2. Cooks 3. Jeffery It's possible Jeffery gets a TD, but that would be about it.

10-team redraft; .5/reception for WR/TE My team: Brady Gordon/Hyde/West/Dixon/Henry/Booker Julio/Evans/Hilton/Fuller Ertz/Eifert Bailey Rams D I would be receiving Johnson/Hogan for Gordon/Evans. Good deal for me? Thanks.

.5pt/REC for WR/TE; redraft league My team: Brady; Gordon/Hyde/T.West/K.Dixon/McKinnon/D.Henry; Julio/Evans/Hilton/Fuller; Ertz/Eifert; Bailey; Texans D His team: Big Ben/Rivers; Bell/Williams/Lacy/Michael/Starks; Edelman/Floyd/Tate/Baldwin; Z. Miller/Fleener; Crosby; Cardinals D I was thinking of offering him Hyde/Hilton for Bell/Williams, and if he balked at that, offer Gordon/Hilton. If you were the other owner, would you do either of these trades? Thanks.

Looking at his WRs, and imagining that those are your WRs going forward (Edelman/Floyd/Tate/Baldwin), do you think you would need to upgrade at WR?

I would. They're both in committees, but I think West lose more time to Dixon than Murray will lose time to Washington/Richard.

I have Brady, but currently start Cousins until he comes back from suspension. Do I stick with Cousins, or should I drop him for Flacco, who has a decent three-game stretch until Brady returns?

I don't even know how this improves your team. Sure Rodgers > Bortles, but Bortles is looking like he could be a consistent fantasy threat. That being said, Peterson is more valuable compared to Rawls than Rodgers is to Bortles. I know you have Michael, but it's not like Rawls is the clear every down back and you'd have his insurance; even though Rawls is the starter, it's going to be a timeshare. Peterson is the Vikings' bellcow. Throwing in a 1st for a 7th (or any other pick other than his 1st) is ludicrous. I agree with one of the other posters -- if you need to shore up any position, it's WR.

10-teams, .5/PPR for WR/TE Brady/Cousins Hyde/Gordon/Ivory/M. Jones/Henry Julio/Evans/Hilton/Fuller/Hogan Ertz Bailey Texans D TWO (actually three) QUESTIONS: 1) Should I drop Cousins for Flacco, who has three decent matchups before Brady returns? 2) I have to pick up a TE because Ertz is hurt: -- do I pick up Celek or Ebron, or someone else? -- who should I drop to pick up the TE? Thanks!

If you're being offered that, then yes, do it. If you're the one making the offer, that's fine, but I don't know why the other owner would do that deal, at this point. Marshall and Jordy could be a wash, but as for now, Marshall is the better WR because we don't fully know how Jordy will do this season; and while Barnidge should see a bump with McCown starting, Reed is still more valuable. So the other owner, more than likely, would be making his team worse. It's just too early in the season.

You can certainly offer it, but I don't think the other owner will be that desperate yet. Gronk is worth way more than those two players.

This is simply for my WR4 spot, but rosters lock for the rest of the season, so whoever I have on roster after this week is who I have throughout the playoffs. I currently have LaFell; should I drop him for Diggs (talented but offense stinks right now), Lockett (WR3 on team, but offense is looking up), or Green-Beckham (most talented of the three and had a breakout game last week, but probably the most inconsistent of the three)? Thanks.

Does an offer of Thomas/Gore for Charles seem fair? If you were the Charles owner, would you accept it? Otherwise, I could try offering Kelce/J. Bell for Ivory/Nicks? My team (3-1): Newton/Romo Murray/Gore/Hyde/K. Davis/Ingram/J. Bell Marshall/Cobb/Maclin Thomas/Kelce His team (1-3): Brees Charles/Morris/Ivory/Chris Johnson Edelman/DJax/S. Smith/Crabtree/VJax/Nicks Daniels/Rudolph

should I use up my #2 waiver priority to pick him back up? We use a rolling waiver system. My team: Newton/Locker Murray/Gore/Hyde/J. Bell/Ingram/Sankey Marshall/Cobb/Maclin J. Thomas/Kelce I would drop Kelce for Cooks. Thanks.

Not knowing what the other guy has for WRs, I'd offer it; he might come back wanting Patterson--I'd still do it. If he balks, you might want to consider offering him Brown/Cooks; he might go for that. You'd still be sitting pretty at WR with Patterson/Floyd/Wright/Sanders

DeAngelo

You can try it, but I don't think he'll take Jackson for Ryan, probably not Cooks either. I don't know that I'd give up Patterson for him, though. Why are you wasting your waiver priority on a WR? Do you have a rolling waiver system, or is it based off of league standings? Couldn't you use it to pick someone up like Locker? Or is he not available?

Is an offer of Luck/Sproles/Torrey Smith for Manning a fair offer? League is .5pt/reception. My team 7-3 (currently 1 seed, only a game ahead of 2nd place team, but have a playoff spot wrapped up): Luck Charles/Stacy/Sproles/Vereen/Woodhead Marshall/T.Smith/Hilton/Allen/Harvin/Cobb (IR) V. Davis His team 4-6 (currently one game out of final playoff spot): Manning/Romo C.Johnson/Tate/A.Foster/D.Johnson/Tolbert/D.Thomas Welker/Douglas/Hopkins Gonzo I'm thinking, with my depth, and him struggling to stay afloat, that this trade will help me stay the 1 seed and greatly help his team at RB and WR to keep him in the playoff hunt. What do you guys think? Is this a trade that is fair for BOTH of us?

Admittedly, I'm trying to play on his possible desperation, for he doesn't have much beyond Manning, Welker, and possibly Johnson. What if I replaced Sproles with Stacy? Could anyone put themselves in the other owner's shoes and show me a counteroffer they think is fair? Thanks!

I would say Reed and SF. Reed seems to be the most consistent performer of that group, as of late, and the Redskins will have to pass to keep up with the Eagles. I would choose SF defense, simply because they're a better defense than Oakland. New Orleans might be better on offense than Houston, but the difference between the NO O and SF D is closer than the difference between HOU O and OAK D, in my opinion.
