one reason people expect murray to take a step back fantasy wise is that he is not an efficient back. last year he was in a perfect spot as the only rb in the team and played i believe 3rd most snaps in the league yet could only muster rb11 status. this year they have secondary rb that will take snaps away from him and coaches are on record saying they ll ease his workload which usually means regression fantasy wise. you never know though maybe he'll get larger chunks this season, weirder things have happened.

But Jesus your offer was awful

I don't think you got murdered, I think it's fair for what you wanted. You wanted a RB and you got one of the best ones from last season. He's only 26 so I don't see why he'd decline. Oakland got better this off season so he should be even better.

Plus with OBJ on your team, you can afford to lose a few recievers.

Best of luck (except when you play me of course!)

Thanks brother, I like u now

AP owners have to be feeling like they got the steal of the draft.

McKinnon might not be bad either because I'd expect less downfield passing so he could potentially rack up more receptions.

Man, seeing Megatron on the list of Free Agents just seems wrong. I almost want to pick him up and give him a ceremonial place on my bench.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I don't know. More chances defenses load up in the box. He'll probably get more carries, but their offense will have a harder time moving the ball down the field so he may score less.

It'll be interesting if they can get Kaepernick. I think he's still got some good football in him and Minnesota would be as good a place as any to get a shot.

I agree. Think I'll go pick him up.

Edit: I guess Zero Tolerance just did.

Hey Cactus Jack, I can't PM people on here due to the rules of the site but I can read it.

I thought your Garcon for Williams offer was simply a joke so that's why I made the counter off Prescott/Williams for Palmer/Charles. It wasn't supposed to be a serious one.

As to your question about moving my backs, right now no. Since I traded Murray, my backfield is looking awfully thin now so I'm just going to roll with what I have now. Only backs that I may even think about moving at this point are Coleman and Powell but even that's unlikely tbh.

Anyone that wants to PM me, the best and only way to do it is through the fantasy league page/app which lets you message fellow league members. At least until I get authorized to PM people on here.

Jack I'm gonna have to decline the Christine Michael trade. Naturally I'm weary of a Hawks fan wanting Michael so bad. I drafted Charkandrick West so I'm planning for a Jamal Charles injury lol

Any interest in dealing LB's/DB's?

There isn't THAT much difference in points. You might try and pick up a 2nd year guy that might break out this year. In one of those positions I couldn't decide between three guys or so and this was with my 2nd to last pick.

Let me guess. Arda? He offered me Tyriann Matheu for Ryan Tannehill.
