Best Buy Low WR

[Hanz 0]

With the trade deadline nearing in most leagues, and the sudden emergence of guys like Berrian, Jennings, Colston, etc.; which WR(s) should we be targetting? Who can bounce back and perform?

 

Marvin Harrison

Larry Fitzgerald

Plaxico Burress

Reggie Wayne

Roy Williams

Chris Chambers

Chad Johnson

Hines Ward

T.J. Houshmandzadeh

Donte Stallworth

I'd go TJ. He's so undervalued it isn't even funny!

[Patriotsfatboy1 1,433]

Of those guys, I would target

 

Ward

CJ

Wayne

 

not necessarily in that order considering that each will have different values to land them.

The answer to the question is relative; it depends on what exactly you mean by "buying low." Who exactly are you willing to give up to get someone on that list? Does the list indicate you view each of them as being equal to each other? All in all, it's hard to answer such a broad, sweeping question; you need to provide some context...and before someone else says, this may be more of a team management question that belongs in the other forum...

You can get Ward for dog scraps right now

Randy Moss absolutely should be on that list. Weeks 13 to 16- home against Texans, at Cincinnati, home against Rams, home against Chiefs. Not murderers row by any stretch and you won't have to give up alot.

Target for value: Housh, Roy, Plax, Wayne, Harrison (you will not steal these guys)

Target for very cheap due to injury situations: Fitz & Stallworworth

Don't pay a lot - hard to value - underperforming (It depends on how the owners feel about them) C.J. and Ward, Chambers

 

I generally target for value, even tho I have to pay more, as I hate buying injury situations, and I'm very wary of 5 week underperformers.

I think that the Wayne and Harrison owners are going to be tough to convince. If you look at the situation, you have to think that the Colts are going to be opening it up a little more than up to this point. They have the yards, but just need the TD's.

 

Getting one of those two will be a hard sell.

I traded Lee Evans and Marion Barber for Harrison yesterday.

Wow. You raped him. As a Harrison owner, there is no way that I would trade a top 10 receiver (maybe top 5) for WW fodder.

I'm thinking about offering Jamal Lewis + Isaac Bruce for one of those buy low WR's.. I wonder who I can get

Depends upon what he has. You have to make the move this week or next when guys are desperate for wins and bye weeks are plentiful. If you wait, you will not get any opportunities. You need to check and see which teams are struggling to field a lineup, so that you can take advantage of the situation.

I'd check here if I was you. http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index...howtopic=279140

Why are you being so non-excellent to the folks here.

[What is the deal? 1]

as an Eagles fan, it pains me to say this, but I'd target TO

IBTL/B

I appologized on the other board, so I will here as well. My intention was not to be non excellent to the original poster. I was just in a mood. It was out of line and I appologize. Go with TO, Marvin, and the Cincy boys. They have the best offenses.

Chad Johnson for sure...he hasn't even gotten started yet.

 

Another guy some people are down on after last game is Steve Smith...if you can swing a deal for him I think he has a huge second half.

 

Stallworth is a good option if you can stash him for another week or 2 while his hammy heals. He will be money with McNabb when he returns. He probably can be had for cheap right now too.

 

I would stay away from Ward...in his own words he's not going to be 100% at any point this year. Plus Roethlisberger is playing like absolute crap (shh...the league is exposing him...).

I traded for Wayne 2 days ago for Vick and Braylon Edwards. I feel pretty good about it.

[Kilroy 0]

Donald Driver comes to mind.

Wow. You raped him. As a Harrison owner, there is no way that I would trade a top 10 receiver (maybe top 5) for WW fodder.

 

FYI. Evans is on are 90/1100/4 pace even after 2 horrible weeks. I expect the TD numbers to come up to 6-10 but who in that trade is WW fodder? Barber is solid if the league is TD heavy. If I owned Harrison I wouldn't accept that tho, I would want a starting RB.

 

As to the orginal topic:

 

Plax - remind me how he is buy low or value for that matter? He has had a bye and he got bench, the other 3 weeks he was a top 10 performer.

 

Chambers - Stay away. MIA is not good. Stay away from all Dolphins as a matter of fact.

 

CJ - Yes, definetly.

 

Housh - Once again how is he buy low or value?? Played 2 games and done excellent in both.

 

Stallworth - Yes.

 

Driver - Yes.

 

Ward - No. He has a hurt hammy and a QB that can't get him the ball. Plus he is being blanketed because the Steelers have no other recieving threat.

 

Colts WRs - Doubtful you can steal then unless their owners are idiots

 

Fitz - Sure, if you can go 6 weeks without a WR.

 

Roy - ?? Has been preforming great. Don't think he is a buy low.

 

Moss - No. no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no.

 

TO - Doubt you can get him cheap.

I was exaggerating. Evans and Barber are not WW fodder, but they are not in Harrison's class.

For what it's worth, I have Colston and would not deal him for those two underperformers at this time who are basically on their last legs.

and I would take dog scraps for him.

[edjr 6,724]

I'm playing CJ this week, put him down for 100+ and 2 TD's

[Hitman2 0]

In a 12 team dynasty league, I just picked up H.Ward, D.Driver and Koren Robinson

 

for

 

Donte Stallworth, Hank Baskett, Arnaz Battle, Kelley Washington

 

in 2 separate deals.

 

I know I gave up the future, but I am going for the win this year.

 

Also, got sick of the Stallworth saga (and trying to predict which weeks Baskett will go off).

Battle was coming off a 2 TD performance which helped this.

Washington is garbage.
