Offering Jordy/DeAngelo to the guy who has Gurley....he also has Bell so I am hoping he overpays for DeAngelo and sells Gurley low.

Doubt he bites, but worth a shot.

Dez/C.Michael for M.Evans/Forte

Any chance that gets it done?

I have
WR: Brown/Bryant/Cooper/Landry/Gordon/Benjamin

RB:Miller/DeAngelo/Foster/Crowell/Micheal

I would take that move. Winston and Mike Evans look pretty locked in and I think this year Evans goes off. He already put up 23.9 points for my team in PPR format. And Forte over Michael seems obvious to me.

I don't think that offer gets it done.

Certainly wouldn't for me personally. Evans is a number 1 wideout with an improving QB who proved himself last year and Forte looks like the bellcow in NYJ. Michael is in a time share and Dez has Prescott who hasn't shown anything more than being a game manager to this point. Too many question marks right now.

Call me reactionary but I dropped Cousins for Stafford and Devonte Parker for Will Fuller. Brady comes back in three weeks, and Fuller will be a bench/upside guy.

just traded gio bernard for delanie walker cuz julius thomas is questionable. dont like the deal as I think walker falls off this year. Still have CJ anderson/Lesean Mccoy/Ameer Abdullah/Theo Ridick/Shane vereen.

Cousins is my backup, Winston is my starter. Winston has a tough few games coming up but I drafted him (and Mike Evans) for his weak schedule around playoff time (NO, Dal, NO).

I might start Cousins this week because I don't see AZ defense getting destroyed two weeks in a row.

He countered with DeMarco/DeAngelo for Gurley.

This is the league I don't have Bell so I am fine with this deal. My other league I have Bell/DeAngelo already. Really hope, I am buying low and selling high. Plus I get to keep Jordy and have Derrick Henry who will take over for DeMarco by midseason.

You made the right call. I basically drafted Stafford in every league. Easy schedule and he has thrived in JimBob's high-paced offense. I don't mind Cousins, either.

Parker seems to be meh so throw a dart at Fuller.

Im actually considering dropping Jared Cook for Boyle. Andrew Luck loves him some tight ends...

Also I am seriously thinking of dropping John Brown for Victor Cruz. I think he looked really good last week.

I've said this before about John Brown, he is T.Y. Hilton from like 3 years ago...he will end the year with a decent amount of yards and touchdowns, but it will be like a monster game every 3 or 4 weeks. You will never know when it is coming and he'll drop turds that will cost you games along the way. Wait for Brown to have a big game and move him for a more consistent player.

Full disclosure, I feel like I was largely wrong about everything I thought would happen in Week 1, so consider this advice at your own risk

Agreed and I expect the same from Brandin Cooks. He had his big game this week so I fully expect him to be MIA for a few weeks. Could be wrong but that is how he and Brown were for me last year.

Can someone tell me if I am crazy in trading DeAngelo/DeMarco for Gurley? I mean it could backfire but in 3 weeks DeAngelo will probably be only getting a few carries a game and Derrick Henry may take over for Murray.

My league is big on 100 yard games....people who get 100 yards rushing or receiving win due to bonus points. I don't see DeAngelo or Demarco getting 100 on a regular basis.

Lineup
Winston/Cousins
Gurley/Langford/Jeremy Hill/Gio/Ameer/Riddick
Jordy/ODB/Evans
Barnidge/Cook

RiotPunch · Post #215 » by **RiotPunch** » Wed Sep 14, 2016 9:58 pm

Okay, need to pick 2 RB's, 2 WR's and 1 RB/WR FLEX. PPR.

Todd Gurley
Dez Bryant
Amari Cooper
Latavius Murray
Randall Cobb
Jeremy Langford
Marvin Jones, Jr.
Michael Floyd
Tajae Sharpe
Tevin Coleman

My only lock as a starter right now is Cooper. Tempting to bench Dez as he is facing Norman and doesn't have great chemistry with Prescott yet. I really like Marvin and Tajae this week. Can't bring myself to consider benching Gurley, but struggling between Murray/Langford for my RB2. Any thoughts are welcome.

Profound23 · Post #216 » by **Profound23** » Wed Sep 14, 2016 10:23 pm

I go top 5.....maybe trade out Cobb for Langford but I always go with my main guys. You're right in that Dez and Gurley could both struggle.....but I live with that rather than losing because I benched my 1st and 2nd round picks in Week 2.

I think Cooks is legit. He won't put up last weeks numbers, but he was very good to finish the season last year and gets a lot of targets.

I'd almost lean top 4 + Coleman. Don't worry about Dez vs. Norman. That was suppose to be the match up against AntB last week, and Brown bossed. I think I heard that Norman lines up on one side instead of following the #1, so moving Dez away from Norm is probably in the game plan. It looks like Tevin is getting moved into a larger role in both running and passing situations if last week is any indication, but that seems to be the reports out of ATL as well. While I also tote out a RB/WR combo from the same team DWill/AntB...I generally don't like the idea as it kind of limits your point ceiling...but is a stabilizing factor I suppose raising the proverbial scoring floor, but has a chance of totally failing if the opposing defense has the O's #. But yeah, top 4 + Coleman.

Interesting take. Not sure I'm ballsy enough to go Coleman over Cobb, Langford, Jones with an 0-1 record... If he gets the targets he got last week though, he'll be a great boom start. With my luck, I'd make a bold move like that and have Cobb have double-digit receptions and 2 TD's o my bench.

IrishRainbow · Post #220 » by **IrishRainbow** » Thu Sep 15, 2016 3:57 am

Sounds about right. I usually get burned by at least one obvious move that I couldn't have made. EX. Started Hopkins/Watkins week 1...my toss up was between Cooks/Fitz...never would've given thought to Hop/Fitz/Cooks..inevitably I always have the'breakout' on the bench. Can never wait until the bye that I actually have to start them.
