I have ADP in one league. I also have Julio Jones who is likely out for the season. I am terrible at trades. What would be a fair trade to get Dez Bryant, and potentially Arian Foster? Is there one available? Should I give even consider giving up ADP? I hate fantasy football. I like Dez because of the Romo connection but I guess I'm not stuck on him.

I would try and do it but I'm a Cowboys and Dez fan... I guess really the only thing to offer him with Jones being out is AP and James Jones for Foster and Dez. I mean you could try and trade AP and Julio Jones for Foster and Dez if the guy doesn't really pay attention.

I just don't see anyway he gives up Foster and Dez for AP and someone else on your team.

Also just my opinion but I would be starting James Jones over both Garcon and Thompkins.

I usually do start Jones but forgot to this week.

I think your team actually doesn't look bad, even with the loss of Jones. Sure, it's a hit, but you have James Jones, and Percy Harvin coming back soon-ish. Don't trade AD. If anything, maybe try dumping Gio for a guy like Decker or Reggie Wayne.

Keenan Allen available? He might be a good pick up. Listed as the #1 on SD's depth chart this week.

Oops. I guess I didn't pick up Douglas in this league. I started to and tried to drop Clark but it wouldn't let me. I'm at my WR limit. Should I just drop Julio and assume he's out for the season? And should I pick up Allen over Douglas? Or both? If so, who else should I drop? I guess Ginn would be the only option if I want to keep Harvin.

I ended up getting Blackmon in both of my regular leagues. Seems like a decent pickup. I know Jax is absolutely awful but I'm guessing he'll be getting the majority of their yardage through the air.

Good pickup. His value is probably a bit higher with Gabbert out too. Not that Henne will set the world on fire. But they'll be playing from behind a lot and he should put up some numbers.

I can't believe he was available. In every league I'm in somebody has had him on their bench since the start. That is a great pickup.

Fuck. I drafted Blackmon and sat him for 4 weeks in 2/3 leagues. Shocked he went undrafted. He is a low end WR2 every week, imo. Paid off big time last week for me. With Henne, who he was amazing with the last 4 games of the year last year, he should get about 10 targets and 6-7 catches a week. I think he is in for a pretty big 10 games to close the year.

I agree. I took him in 3 leagues and just waited it out. Did the same thing with Josh Gordon and both have paid huge dividends. Can really get great value with guys like them.
