  1. Hank is out for the year so he's not on the table for this year. That's a Pats signing. AKA he'll be awesome out of nowhere next year or get cut/end up with the Bills. I think Edleman is going to play this week. If he plays, it'll be because he's ready to play. And I think he needs flex consideration..especially if you're staring at a questionable starter in a flex spot (IE: Hillman, Marty Bryant, Adams, Dez). I have him in my sights as a replacement for Hillman/CJA if he looks good in practice today and/or tomorrow.

    Thats exactly where im at. I have Hillman at flex, but if Edelman plays I think starting him over a Hillman or CJA has a better reward for the risk.


  2. Musgrave is butting his head, running out of the shotgun formation. I get that it spreads out the defense for the quick passing game. But other than surprise third and long blasts, it is a useless formation to utilize for the running game.

     

    This Raider team cannot be successful without running the football. Not with that defense. They've ran the ball well out of the Power I, and have also utilized it in play-action to get down the field. But Musgrave continues to feature the shotgun, even in 2nd/3rd and short downs.

     

    This, in essence, is what's wrong with the run game. Also the primary issue to keep in mind is Oakland is a much different team in The Black Hole.

    I think not having Lee Smith was a pretty big factor this past week too. He's back this week, so theres that.


  3. I need an RB desperately. This has to be my worst RB year ever. Drafted Lacy, CJ Anderson, and Alf Morris = Bust, picked up Dion Lewis and felt a little better = Gone. Traded for L. Murray = Pansy...

    My choices:

    Taiwan Jones
    Joique Bell
    Charles Sims
    Ryan Mathews


  4. Its a toss-up really. Im leaning towards Jones for now though, and heres why: Jones would probably have never been converted to CB/ SP Teams in the first place, had he not had issues with holding onto the ball. During this offseason, Jones bulked the hell up @ an extra 25 lbs+ of chiseled beef. Now the only questions were 1) can he hold onto the ball, and 2) will he still be fast? I think so far he has shown that the speed and cutting ability are indeed still there, and until he shows the added bulked isnt going to help him hold onto the ball, what weve seen so far from him has earned him the back-up role.


  5. Im starting Murray this week. I like what he did vs the #1 run defense. Although I am just a tiny bit skeptical, because I think if Murray shows any sign of not being able to get it done in the first half, I think they may plug Taiwan Jones in a few more plays this week. But still im confident with Murray getting his weekly average at least.

  6. Although my opinion may be a little biased, heres what I think. I honestly think Carr is solid ROS. The Raiders o-line is giving him all kinds of time. Last week showed how willing they are to utilize all of their offensive talent. Walford and Holmes performances last week were no fluke, and with that at least Walford gets quite a few more snaps. Holmes probably will too, but split with Roberts. Pittsburgs secondary is going to find out quickly like SD did that locking up Cooper doesnt matter. I go with Carr.

  7. I dont know wtf to do this week with my WR's. Ive moved players every hour on the hour since this morning. Also would like advice between Lacy and Andrews.
    Thinking of starting Andrews over Lacy, but im always hesitant starting anyone over Lacy for fear of him finally breaking ###### off. As for WR's, Bryant seems like a decent start, but I hate starting anyone against my team. Historically it never goes good. Dont like the voodoo.

    Line up in sig. Thank you.


  8. Been holding onto him since week 2. Just my hunch he will come out murderous; therefore reminding defenses to tighten up on the passing game, allowing Matt Jones to get some wiggle room.

    Dreamers can dream blah blah...


  9. Man sometimes I wish Murray would just lower his shoulders and go for it. I cant imagine how much better he would be. He has the power to for sure. Im actually excited for next week. As for ROS, if our D keeps it up, and having Nate Allen back helps to shorten the opponents time of possession, Murray will get more carries. Man I love it when im right about my team lol. I told all my Raider hater friends exactly what is unfolding right now, on pretty much every aspect.

  10.  

    Please send me a league invite after you guys add a waiver period.

    Haha yeah I know right. Somethings strange this year with these guys. Usually they're on top of their . But this year people are making the dumbest moves. Dropping players after a bad game, not picking up potentials...etc. I am 6-1, but only because I woke up late and didnt sub for an injured player and had a def on bye. A few weeks ago I had to drop M. Evans to scoop and play someone, literally hours later, the guy who denied my Ivory trade, scooped Evans up and tried to package him with Manning for my Hopkins and Palmer... wierdo.


  11. By any chance is Blount still available in your league? Didn't mention how many team in your league. But looks like Morris would be start this week since anderson is on bye this week. From the words of it, sounds like Hillman will be doing majority of the workload :// Whereas I think Morris still has a better chance of seeing the ball more than CJ. Have you tried Rashad Jennings?

    Ha! Im an idiot. Im rostering Denver def. I should have known they were on bye...

     

    With that said though; literally 2 minutes ago I received a trade offer for my Moncrief and Morris, for his L. Murray and Blount. Hes a good friend of mine, so I would kind of feel bad taking this trade lol. Maybe ill let him keep Blount.


  12. If these dicks wont budge on their trade offers, screw em'. I'll clean their clocks with my WR's and two mediocre RB's. But... I am stuck with Alf at the moment, for this week. I could grab CJ off waivers though.

    Help me out bro's


    Edit: Im stupid. Denver is on bye. Which is why im not starting their def... carry on.


  13. I would take this deal if Palmer is your backup. Say you have Brady or Dalton. I think giving him Cobb and moncrief is too much IMO, but if you feel Bryant and Benjamin are better then those 2 I don't have a problem trading those 2. I would probably ask for Tate as a throw in.

    This guy is being put on hold for now after telling me Moncrief is a WR3 with little upside....lol

    Now im focusing on this mega hoarder assh*le who is rostering L. Bell, L. McCoy, Forte, Ivory, Gurley, M. Gordon... I dont know how he managed that lol. But I considering he has that much in RB power, and he is 1-5, his missing piece is a decent WR. He literally loses by no more than 10 pts each week.


  14. Moncrief is not enough for L.Murray. I treat Murray as a low RB1/ high RB2, he has a rare feature back role. Moncrief is only WR2 value. RB> WRS. You should list his team too.

    So maybe package him with Cobb? I can afford to give im both, plus I will be claiming Lafell. Im 100% positive.

     

    His RB's and WR's:

     

    RB - Forsett, K. Williams, Blount, L. Murray

    WR - Calvin Johnson, J. Landry, R. Randle, G. Tate


  15. 10 team full ppr

    So im pretty damn stacked at WR, but need a solid RB. Im hoping Lacy finally opens up after the bye, and Lewis I think will get his touches back after a little more rest on his abdomen issue. At this point Alf is wasting space, and Knile Davis is too. Im hoping to offer up a WR or two to a guy for Latavius Murray. Who would you toss at him?

    RB's - Lacy, D. Lewis, Alf, K. Davis

    WR's - Cobb, Hopkins, Moncrief, T. Benjamin, D. Jax, M. Bryant,
