And dude.. your league is so far beyond stupid.. 50 points for shutout, points per carry and reception.. 3 bench spots.. I don't even see why you care about that league. It's terrible.

Yeah, it is. I only pay attention because I'm doing so well, and I missed out on my buddies keeper league this year, so had no other leagues to play in, and joined my friends, this one, the day before the draft.

I was in first, now I'm in second, tied with the commish, at 7-1. He has ~300 more points then me, but I beat him.

Trade went through, picked up Fargas.

My team now looks like:

Peyton Manning

Marshawn Lynch

Edgerrin James

Brandan Jacobs

Justin Fargas

Chad Johnson

TJ Houshmandzadeh

Torry Holt

Anquan Boldin

Jason Witten

Adam Vinatieiri

Washington DEF

Ok, I have 5 spots- 2 WR, 2 RB, and a WR/RB. Who shalt I play?

WR:

Chad Johnson

TJ Houshmandzadeh

Torry Holt

Anquan Boldin

RB:

Marshawn Lynch

Edgerrin James

Brandan Jacobs

Justin Fargas

TJ is definitely starting, and I think I may go with Holt, had a great game 2 weeks ago, and his offense got a nice rest with the bye.

As for RB's, I'm definitely going with Lynch and Jacobs. I'm debating either Edge vs. Det, who's defense seems to be coming on as of late, or Fargas vs. Chicago, who's defense seems to be ******* more and more as time progresses.

Jacobs for the flex

It looks like Chad will be playing this week...but I'll probably sit him. I'm hoping either Boldin or Holt can step up big time, so I can try to swing a WR and a RB for a better RB in exchange.

Some notable free agents as of now:

Chris Henry (Cin WR)

Justin Fargas

Joey Galloway

Kevin Curtis

Kenny Watson

Roddy White

Dwayne Bowe

Priest Holmes

Lee Evans

Warrick Dunn

Deion Branch

Eh, that's to be expected with only 3 bench spots. 3 bench spots is idiotic.

LJ's last 3 games have been very solid, 4 touchdowns in the last 3 games.
Galloway? If your lucky, he gets a bomb for a touchdown. LJ was starting to come back to his normal self these last 3 games. He has been much more productive than Galloway these last 3 games, and he was going to continue to be.

Lee Evans is finally returning to his normal self, and he's got a great matchup against Miami coming up, and a very easy schedule the rest of the season.

Bowe? Hasn't had a TD in over 4 weeks. He played 3 games with no touchdowns, and then didn't play at all last week, and if you look at their schedule, it is not favorable at all. And you act like the QB situation in KC is any better than it is in Buffalo, moron. And I guess you haven't noticed that Philly's offense is non-existent, so Curtis won't be much of a pickup. Lynch is playing great, opening up Lee Evans, especially against the weak defenses they play the rest of the season.

Fact is, i'd much rather have LJ during playoff time than Galloway.

Don't be stupid.

Galloway has been consistent all year long besides a game or 2. LJ wooo hooo....3 good weeks....now hes injured, quite possibly out for the season.

Lynch is the definition of the Bills offense. Hes their only weapon. This will be the last week JP plays, after this week when edwards is healthy, he'll be the starter again. And that means Evans numbers will once again go to shit.

Bowe was a good bye week fill in. Atleast in his case he's got a stable QB situation. And with Kennison coming back, it will spread out the defense. Unlike with Evans, where there is a non existent #2 WR on the team, the defense double up on evans. And Curtis, depending on his matchups, has been another solid bye week fill in.

And yes I did trade Romo for McNabb and Lendale White. But if you read my post, which is obvious you did not, I needed a #2 RB badly. So, I made the trade knowing I have brees, and got another starter capable QB in McNabb and got a #2 RB who has shown he can handle the workload. So in a desperate situation as I was in, my season was on the line, I pulled the trigger on a move that would make or break my season and it turned 1 player into some added depth on my team. So now after winning 2 straight weeks after making the trade, pulling my team back into contention for the last playoff spot.

Sure beats doing shit and letting my team fall into last.

Fact is, I rather have a healthy contributor to my team than a injured player that'll be a game time decision for the rest of the year, come playoff time.

Dont be Fucking Retarded.

Fact is, LJ is day to day. Fact is, LJ is a far better fantasy player than Galloway. Fact is, J.P Losman was the starter, and now they are winning games, I doubt they'll put Edwards back in. You fail.

And to put a nail in the coffin.. Galloway is on a Bye this week.. so by the time you can even use Galloway, LJ will probably be back. Thanks for playing.

That is true that Edwards has been healthy and Losman is still playing. As long as he is winning Edwards will not play. I happen to like Evans as he has put up great numbers when I have used him but I also have a lot of depth at wr so I can afford to sit him if Edwards comes back or he has a bad matchup.

Hey dumbass...

I live in Buffalo.

Here in buffalo, unfortunately we live and breathe the Bills and Sabres, seeing thats ll there really is to do here.

So when you listen to local sports radio all day at work, and read local newpapers, and hear what the coaches say, I think I know whats going on with my team.

And trust me, Once Edwards is healthy.....He will be the starter. Hes the future of this team, and he's won over the coaches.

So sorry. But you really should shove your head back up your ***.

Edwards is not currently healthy.

He still has swelling and pain in his wrist.

Now why would they put in a QB that can't throw the ball to Evans? When Losman plays, Lynch plays well, and Lee Evans plays well. When Edwards plays.. it's all Lynch. Explain to me why in the hell he would be the starter? Lol.

Here is what you should do, like the experts say, Slammed. "Regardless of what happens, fantasy owners need to hold on to LJ to see what happens"

They don't want Losman playing because of his playing incentives. Edwards is cheaper, and the Bills are cheap ****s.
