Wasn't able to move Matty Ice, but was able to swing a pretty good deal for my team.

Giving: Rodgers, Doug Martin, and Tavon Austin

Getting Randall Cobb, AD.

Well, thanks to stat corrections, I was 3-1 last week instead of 4-0. They took a sack away from the Browns, and as a result, I lost by 0.62 points. Unbelievable... the Browns let me down YET AGAIN!

By AD did you mean ADP? If so I like that for your team, especially since you still have a good QB in Ryan.

I'm pretty sure that's who he is talking about. Haven't you seen the sportscenter commericals where he says his nickname growing up was AD for "All Day?"

I'm rolling the dice this week playing Palmer over Brady. Brady will probably throw for like 350 yards now.

I hate people get confused with his nickname being ADP when it is simply AD. It has nothing to do with his name being Adrian.


As for my question of the week, do I stick with a banged up Alshon Jeffery versus SF or go with Michael Floyd vs the Jets? Leaning Floyd. Gordon being reinstated would make this decision MUCH easier and give me trade bait.

Currently have Jeffery, Sanders, J. Jones, Floyd, T. Williams and Gordon.

I'd still go with Jeffery.

The issue with Jeffery is he is playing Sunday night. If he doesn't go...you are screwed.

I have a similar situation. I moved Harvin into WR2 and put Jeffery in the flex. If he doesn't go, I'll go with Bradshaw on Monday.

Floyd plays the Giants, not the Jets. I'd go Floyd. He should put up big numbers this week.

Yeah, I started typing New York and just naturally put Jets. Knew it was the Giants. Lol

Floyd is becoming a stud, and the NYG secondary sucks. If Jeffrey is hurt against a good defense in SF, I'd go Floyd.

Well, you and I might be in a bad spot here (Peterson was my first pick), Peterson just arrested for child abuse (apparently spanked his child with a switch).

You draft depth and you think you are covered (Michael Floyd for Alshon Jeffery today)...and then Drew Stanton is announced the starter.

Should I go with Terrence Williams??

IMO Williams should always be starting. He's a td machine.

Well, I have Julio, Jeffery and Sanders ahead of him on depth chart.

But this week I may switch. Really loved Floyd versus the God awful Giants secondary...

One of the weirdest weeks for Fantasy I can remember. Injuries galore. Big names laying total eggs.

Lot of teams in my leagues looking at about half of their projections.

I am looking at 1-1 in my two important league...maybe. Up by .9 in the one and we are both done. Stat correction away from a loss but winning as of now. The other I am up by 23 but he has Luck and Sproles so likely a loser but with how weird this week was...who knows?

I'll end up 3-0 this week. Luckily, I didn't have anyone important with major injuries, sans Moreno in one league.

There is only a slight chance for one person to still beat me. He has Ertz tonight, and I have Vinatieri. I'm up 4. We'll see.

I need 16 tonight from Reggie wayne. Full pt PPR, I should have a decent shot, 1pt every 10 yards.
