Would you trade Russell Wilson right now? Also does anyone have a good chicken thigh recipe?

Do you have any openings in your league? Dumping Dez is not smart, IMO. He'll get snatched up instantly. But good luck with that decision. By the way, all bench guys do "nothing". But, neither here nor there.

How does cutting Dez Bryant apply to the "he who hesitates is lost" rule? Cutting him is purely a rash decision. And trading him when he has almost no value? Hope it's part of a big multi player deal, because you won't get much for him now straight up. I'm keeping him on my bench and scouring the waiver wire for the players who emerge from nowhere to have great years, which happens every year.

I really don't see how anyone can speculate that it will definitely be more or less than 6 weeks. Nobody knows how fast his body can heal, so to panic because some doctor who didn't examine him said it will be 12 or 13 weeks is foolhardy.

Cmike. :facepalm:

Best Player Available.

Again, I'm not depending on last year's stats. The previous year's stats should have some bearing upon the decision on who to draft, but it shouldn't be the be-all-end-all. This is Lacy's third year in the league and I don't think we've seen his ceiling yet. He has factored more into the passing game each year he's been in the league (all of 2, albeit), and caught 4 TDs last year. Maybe Nelson's injury gives him more opportunity to catch the ball, maybe not. I see him continuing to trend upward and like I said, his floor is pretty high.

Hell no. I'm a Lion fan and am excited by Zenner, but right now he's 4th on the RB depth chart. Unless they trade Bell or Riddick or if someone gets hurt, I don't see Zenner getting many carries at all in the regular season.

Alright, I've made my decision. I'll be drafting Eddie Lacy first overall in my draft tonight. Stellar offense, big drop-off in talent to his backup, pass catcher, consistently top-tier. He's a safe pick, which I want with the #1, but also has the potential to dominate the league. I think his floor is RB5, and his ceiling is RB1. Thanks for hearing me out.

Nothing wrong with adjusting on the fly for BPA.

Zenner ran with the first team offense in the third preseason game, fwiw.

Do we seriously want to continue to mine articles looking for RB or FB next to Zenner's name? Because I'd win. He's a RB. That's how they're using him and it's how he runs. Detroit drafted an actual FB in the 5th round this year, by the name of Michael Burton. Looks like he'll win the starting job, although he's getting pressured by Emil Igwenagu. Zenner has not once lined up as a blocking back thus far in the preseason. I've watched every down of every game. Don't draft Zenner because he's white, or because he's low on the depth chart, or even because he might not even make the team, but not because he's a FB. Because he's not a FB.

No he's not.

Thanks for the input. Certainly something to consider.
