Almost ready to Blowup Team

    BlackGPGT DP only 17

    As the sun sets I am looking at 0-2 and not happy about the team. Currently team sits at

    Carson Palmer
    Matt Ryan

    Frank Gore
    Alfred Morris
    Doug Martin
    Karlos Williams

    Andre Johnson
    Steve Smith
    Dez Bryant
    Jeremy Maclin
    Brandon Coleman

    Gronk
    Antonio Gates

    We have to have 4 rbs, 5wr, 2 Te on roster

    With Dez going down that killed me. I am tempted to offer up Gronk for 2 quality players. I need to improve rb and wr. I dont think anyone is going to bite on dez now that romo went down too.

    I am going to snag g. bernard off waivers as someone released him this week. Thoughts on Dion Lewis or Matt Jones?

    what do y'all have 20 bench spots? That waiver wire sucks hard for a 10 team league.


    You own Morris - so you have to have Matt Jones - but I have a bad feeling you'll hate it, not knowing which one to start.. I would guy by week 5 or 6 Jones is the lead dog.


    Is this all the players on your roster? If not who else you got on your bench?

    Can you list your waiver wire TE's> no way you can let go of Gronk unless we find a gem or two to replace him,.

    If you grabbed Ladarius Green, you might could roll with him over Gronk - but man you'd have to get a top 5 WR for Gronk -

    and when Gates comes back, what will happen with Green? Will Green and Gates hurt each others target value? I would think so...

    Drop Karlos for Dion Lewis - sounds like a better bet for points.. but if Lewis fumbles more he will end up on the practice squad

    I offered a trade of Alfred Morris for Danny wood head to start. Then I'll snag Bernard as cinc schedule looks tough for hill. Do I drop Martin or hold on yet?

    You are panicking my friend. I don't think trading Morris for woodhead is any good. Morris can't handle the running in Washington but that is a good thing. They are running the ball so much that there is room for 2 guys. Look at week 1. Morris had over 100.

    My thinking with Gronk is I figure he avg 20pts. If I can get 2 guys that avg 15 then I bump my weekly floor by 10.

    But then I'm guessing which back to play each week with Washington. Wood head is a lock for touches and catches in my ppr

    No I disagree. If you look at the stats from yesterday's game.

    19 carries for Matt Jones
    18 carries for Alfred Morris

    3 receptions for Matt Jones
    2 receptions for Alfred Morris

    I think this will be pretty accurate going forward.

    NOW look at The Chargers.

    16 carries for Melvin Gordon
    7 carries for Woodhead

    1 reception for Melvin Gordon
    6 receptions for Woodhead

    They will pass more to Woodhead but the yardage will come from Morris. I know this is PPR but will Woodhead consistently put 60+ yards

    Could be a trade possibility with the Romo owner. I'd offer him Palmer for someone, assuming he doesn't have a good backup.

    I'd stand pat and only accpet trades where you win - you can't trade a guy while he's down and out - and you can't trade your best player / Gronk IMO that would be cray cray

    Alright guys I'll hold off for now. Maybe gore and Johnson will pop for 55 pts combined tonight

    for the sake of me making money in draftkings I hope Andre gets like 9 TDs tonight.

    Well looks like Morris and Johnson will be toast.

    I'm thinking of offering gronk for Julio. Then I'll play gates at te when he gets back.
