What do you guys think of James White going forward PPR? I have 1st waiver wire pick. In need of a RB. My options are beastmode, CJ Anderson, and Latavius Murray.

I am stacked at WR and a guy wants me to trade McKinnon where I give away Brown. i don't want that. I also have Dez, Crabtree, Sanu, Graham, Rudolph in 3 spots for WR/TE.

Anyone other than Zeke or Fournette seems like a pretty big win to you.

Are you saying you are rostering those three RBs or those are the waiver guys?
Don't give away Brown for anyone not named Bell, IMO, and that would depend fairly heavily on roster makeup/starting positions etc...

James White is in FA, the other RB's I listed are on my roster. I tried trading Brown for Bell straight up and he declined. Not sure his strat as he has Kamara and McCaffery and his WR core is Lion heavy (Tate and Jones Jr), Robert Woods, and Devante Parker.

some guy sent an offer of julio jones for russell wilson when you have no good receivers and your first reaction was to talk about other pieces and post here?

no wonder trades rarely get done

Pretty much.

Also why I can't help but laugh at people's hypothetical trades that happen ~2% of the time.

feels like i missed the starting point when it became a running joke for half the trade posts to be brags about how stupid your league is

I did get a trade done today though, on a team where I have Rudolph and Olsen in IR (lol 3 tes)

12 team ppr 3wr/2rb/1flex, in 2nd and making playoffs almost always..

I think this is good? Shrug.

I'll take the Evans side

1pt ppr

2-7 record team trade
Antonio Brown + Jay Ajayi

To

Commissioners team 1st place in his division for
Shady + Dez

The 2-7 team's rb's are total garbage but is there anyway this makes his team better?
Seems really bad to me

ehhh antonio side obviously wins, but doesn't look egregious

your context seems to imply you suspect collusion?

I never like to use the word collusion but a 2-7 team that is out of it trading Antonio Brown and not getting more out of it pretty much sucks. No way I could prove collusion but it makes no sense

are we starting rawls or tevin coleman in ppr this week?

is he literally eliminated or can he get in by winning out?

you said divisions which means there is some dumb league structure so if he has a chance then it makes sense to move a rb on bye this week for a much better rb. going from brown to dez is the cost but its not like hes getting back desean jackson

don't get the appeal of the titans D. they are one of the worst scoring Ds this year and Dalton had been efficient and less turnover prone ever since they changed offensive coordinators.

This is complicated, probably tldr.

My PPR league is different, we play the actual playoffs. After 17 weeks, top 4 teams make the playoffs. Each of the 4 teams can protect up to 6 players. All other players are dumped into a draft pool, teams then draft to fill out these rosters (not a snake draft, top seed picks #1 in each round) 2 QB, 4 RB, 4 Receivers (TE included) 1 K 1 DF. RB is hard to fill (16 playoff RB spots) versus Receiver is pretty easy to fill out. You don't replace players as their teams are eliminated in the playoffs. Complicating things is this league has one dynasty player.

I will definitely be in the playoffs. I have:
Brady
Le'Veon (Conner handcuffed)
Zeke
Kamara $2 keeper value
Dion Lewis
Rex Burkhead
Chris Hogan
Danny Amendola
Juju

So I've got some pretty solid playoff keeper options as is, even if Zeke gets suspended. The guy with Gronk is out of the playoff hunt, and he wants Kamara for the keeper value next season. Gronk obviously fits well with the Patriots I have, but the Saints are likely to be in the playoffs this season as well, and because RB is so shallow, and we have to roster 4 of them, I think he has a lot of playoff value as well. Vacuum, Gronk is probably more valuable, but the positional scarcity may mean it is better to hold onto Kamara, and Gronk is really just replacing another WR. I'm not really worried about Kamara's dynasty value, I have other decent options.

TLDR, but if any of you have gut feelings on this, I'd love to hear them.

4 divisions
Winner of each division goes to the playoffs
No conferences, the next 2 best records get the wildcards

I guess he's not completely mathematically out of getting the 6 seed but he'd need to win out and have 2 teams lose out to tie their record and also make up 100+ points total of points for to take the tie breaker

In my big money league there are 4 of us at 6-3. Guy at 3-6 needing to win out has Evans and Alshon, who are suspended and on bye this week, respectively. He has turned down all offers all year without a counter offer and i finally just asked him what he wants for either of them, reminding him of his situation. He said "I'll need them going forward if I'm going to have a chance". Good luck him. Also, F him. Also, he is my brother. No point to this post. Just venting.

Just more evidence showing why trading is so rare, people suck.

Someone dropped Doyle in my .5 PPR league, seems worth picking up but I have Brate, we only have 5 bench spots, and he's on bye next week as well. Still worth picking up and figuring out next week? Team is as follows:

Prescott/Stafford (can't get anything for Stafford, seems too valuable to drop)
Hunt/Gordon/Forte/Drake
T Hill/M Thomas/Maclin/Rishard Matthews/Goodwin
Brate
Lutz
Buf D

Drop Maclin maybe? Hill/Maclin on bye, so can't drop Goodwin yet

Got offered the following. Leaning towards taking it but not totally sure. I would get the Hopkins side:

Deandre Hopkins
Aaron Jones

For

One of Lamar Miller or Demarco Murray
Adam Theilin
Devin Funchess

Standard scoring. I have McCoy and whichever rb I don't include with Peterson and Blount as notables on my bench. Other wrs I have are Keenan Allen and Jamison crowder.

First, would you take it, and second would you give up Murray or Miller?

I'd take the Hopkins/Jones side all day, despite their respective garbage QBs

Has any quarterback or pitcher ever visited Dr Andrews and been back playing in 2 weeks? I guess Winston is droppable?

Got offered Ingram for Kelce in PPR (I own Zeke, Morris, Gore, Lavatius, Lewis). I've got Engram as my other TE.

Do I snap that?

Yes
