I picked up Derek Anderson in Week 4 or 5. I started the season with Bulger and he caused me to drop my first 4 out of 5, after picking up Anderson I have been on a roll, winning 4 in a row and and I'm finally back to .500 and my team looks solid...The emergence of Anderson allowed me to trade Kitna for Chad Johnson so my WR's are all set with Lee Evans and Chad...I got LT and MJD at RB with Cooley at TE and guys like Burleson and Kevin Jones on my bench so Im looking pretty stacked right now in my league :)

There is a guy in my league however, who has Brady, Moss, Welker, Winslow and the Charger's #1 ranked D...He's gonna be hard to beat.

My greatest pickup for me has to be Wes Welker off the free agent wire. He's been money for me. It also helps when I got Westbrook and Housh having a consistent and solid production thus far in FF.

If only Jake Delhomme didn't get hurt I wouldn't be wondering which QB will put up better #'s. I have Rivers and Cutler.

I got Randy Moss AND Willie Parker for Antonio Gates. For waiver wire pickups I grabbed Jennings, Grant, Keith, and Derek Anderson.

Wow Jennings was on the waiver wire. That is surprising.

I actually had to cut Jennings in week 2 or 3 in one league. Just had too many injuries and needed spots to fill. Wish I would have just left the spot open.

I also just picked up Shaun Alexander a couple days ago. My running backs are LT, Willie Parker, EJ and Shun Alenxander. I'm taking on the guy that made the trade with me this week and he's currently second.

Really? Because in a standard scoring league Lewis has 89 points, and Jacobs has 64.


ETA: Jacobs is much more consistent though, but Lewis can really put up big numbers sometime. An argument could be made for either one i suppose.

ah.... jacobs missed more games than lewis that why his numbers ain't better than lewis. plus, who the hell wants a running back that scores 4 tds this week and give you 20 yards next week? this is no argument. everybody will choose the consistent back.

Lewis has just had a great game and his schedule is extremely favorable the rest of the year. I have Jacobs, Lewis and White as my backs. Hope that Jacobs hammy is nothing big. Best trade for me had to be me giving up Peyton for Brandan Marshall, LenDale White and Cutler. Peyton right after I traded him had a decent game, then the 6 int game and now this week he did nothing at all. Considering my QB is now Warner, seems like a steal to me!

It's just not a BBJ team unless you have Stephen Costkowski in there.

Willis McGahee and Greg Jennings

Boy those 2 have been consistant and saved me in a couple of games.

The trade was so lucky because the 2 headliners actually got injured (Williams for the season, Harrison for almost all the season) lucky me lol

I traded Rex Grossman, Marvin Harrison, Caddillac Williams, Cato June, and Michael Turner for Greg Jennings, Willis McGahee, Chad Pennington and Jamal Lewis
