Kicker and Defense. I don't think I'll get it unles Suisham kicks 4-5 FGs. I think have a better chance at winning my defensive matchup. I need Pittsburghs Def to do 2 out of 3 - Titans only score 9 points or less, Titans only get 237 total yards or less, or get a turnover. This is a different type of league where you have to win categories and not just points btw haha.

Yeah I'm definitely banking on that. I'm just hoping the Steelers can do what the Raven did and hold them to 7 points. I'd say the Titans will go over 237 yards though. If the Steelers can get a defensive TD I'll feel like I will have a shot at winning points.

But in the end it doesn't even matter.... a win this week would only mean I'd have a shot at being at best the 4 seed and not the 6 seed lol.

Awesome.

I didn't make this trade.

Bradshaw is now likely IR-bound.

Cooks is out 4-6 weeks.

Sanders may or may not miss a game with a concussion.

Now, I'm a little up in the air. If AP gets an answer by Wednesday and is able to play in Week 12, I might be okay, though I'm sure he'll probably need to get his legs back, as I'm sure he's rusty.

I did offer up Malcolm Floyd and Odell Beckham for Tre Mason. The guy who owns Mason doesn't need him, and I don't need those receivers. I need a RB, in case Peterson doesn't pan out, and he needs WRs. Hoping he agrees to it.

Figures. This damn game ...

In need of a RB this week. I have a claim out on Jonas Gray from NE, will know tomorrow if I got him.

I had Bradshaw, he's done. And LeVeon Bell is on a bye. I have Tre Mason from St. Louis currently.

Okay, here's what my team looks like now in a 12-team PPR league.

QB M. Sanchez
WR E. Sanders
WR J. Gordon
RB M. Forte
RB D. Freeman
TE T. Kelce
W/R/T R. Cobb

Notable bench guys:
RB A. Peterson (if, by some miracle, the abomination that is Roger Goodell lets him play ... not likely)
WR O. Beckham
WR M. Floyd
WR M. Floyd (yes, both)
RB P. Thomas (hurt, and probably behind Ingram when he gets back)


I was just offered Alfred Morris, who I just traded a week ago before Bradshaw got hurt. But this guy wants Cobb.

Here are my options as I see them:

1. I could take the trade and put Beckham at flex.

2. I could counter with Gordon, banking on him taking some time getting back into the swing of things.

3. I could tough it out with the team I have now, which leaves me pretty vulnerable at RBs after Forte.

4. I could offer Sanders on the chance that his concussion protocol takes more than a week.

What do you think?

I'd trade Gordon or Cobb for Morris. Sure you are giving up the better player but you're get a huge upgrade at RB and a slight downgrade at WR.

Yeah, I've been leaning that way. Starting Sanders, Gordon, and Cobb sounds awesome, but starting Sanders, Gordon/Cobb, and Beckham is still solid. Thanks for putting it into that perspective.

So the next question is: Who would you rather have? Cobb, who can't possibly keep up this TD rate (10 in 10 games, I believe) and who has the lower upside of the two, or Gordon, who has a VERY high upside, but who is still something of a question mark for this year?

1st I'd try and get a better RB than Morris. I mean you pretty know you're going to get like 8-14 points out of the guy but really won't ever have anything too much more. But I'd give up Cobb. Like you said his TD rate isn't going to continue. Also Nelson and Rodgers are clicking like no other right now and Adams the rookie is really starting to come around. Honestly thinking about it I might prefer Morris over Cobb going forward and I'd put it on the board! (Hopefully someone else gets this).

I would go with Lamar because miami is a good team but they aren't a great passing team so they'll need to run the ball 30+ times to slow the manning offense down and control the game.

Gio worries me just because Hill has been playing well. Its gonna be a platoon and I'm not sure he gets any goal line touches.

Mason will be in. R Mat will be out. Still undecided on other 3.

So somebody offered me Jeremy Hill for Alshon Jeffery and I'm thinking I will do it. My other WRs are Josh Gordon, Antonio Brown, Kelvin Benjamin, Jeremy Maclin, Brandin Cooks, Jordan Matthews, and for the rest of this year Julio Jones(keeping the rest, keeper league). My RBs are Marshawn Lynch, Andre Ellington, Shane Vereen, and Bobby Rainey. I doubt I would start Hill this year so it would be a move for the future. Seem like a good move?

You make that trade, definitely.

As for starting him, I might rotate him and Ellington based on matchup. Hill has looked excellent, but Ellington gets so many touches.
