    So a few weeks back I was shopping Ronnie Brown because I have a lot of RB's and need a TE. I figured I had the RB depth that I could get rid of Brown for well below value if I got a top TE in return to complete my team. I offered him straight up for Scheffler, Cooley, Witten Winslow and Gates and figured someone would bite. Nope. Well today in prepping for the days FF I noticed the dumbass that turned me down for Scheffler DROPPED HIM. :laughing1: He could have had Ronnie Brown. I know the guys injured, but it should only be for a few weeks and he was the #3 TE in the league. Dumb.

    Fantasy managers would rather lose a league than lose in a trade. It's very tough to make good threads. I think I've made 4 or 5 in 10 years :icon_confused:

    So true. There's usually only 1 or 2 trades a year in my league because someone got ripped off 7 years ago and now everyone is overly cautious. Idiots.

    um, tony scheffler opened the season as the no. 3 TE for the broncos, and is far from the top three in the nfl. dumb

    Check YOUR sources. This guy is right. Schefler was listed as the number three behind Graham and Nate Jackson. Whether this was a ruse by the Broncos or not doesn't really matter. They had him ranked third. Now, flash forward to today. Schefler is no longer playing, meaning he is not going to be a top TE. He MAY have been a great TE for the few weeks he played, but he will finish in 40th place or so at the end of the year.
