Julio Jones #19 & Roddy White #32? :usure:

Rumors of Roddy's decrease in touches are being greatly exaggerated, IMO.

Absolutely. Its not only his touches that are going to decrease, it is his TDs as well. Even just a couple of TDs sniped by Julio drops Roddy down, let alone the touches he won't get. He burned owners last year who took him with a early 2nd round pick. I don't trust him going in the 2nd round this year. He never lived up to that value.

ayo breh. just so you know, im reading all of these and enjoy them. i know you're not getting a lot of responses but keep it up

what are your thoughts on the STL WRs? i got amendola on my bench, hoping he can fill in on a bye week. :manny:

Thanks for letting me know. Its much appreciated. I'm hoping to have another article up by tonight after I get home.

The STL WR core is tough. I don't think Bradford is the type of QB you want to rely on for your WRs. Amendola would be the only one worth while in my opinion if Bradford can get him the ball and Amendola makes plays. If he's the best option out there, he certainly is someone to take a flier on.

I have Randy Moss as my 5th WR in my 10 team PPR but i'm thinking of picking up Austin Collie off the waiver wire instead. My thought process is both are expendable so i'm not losing anything if Collies concussions linger but if they don't he's more viable. What do you think?

I think you should hold onto Moss. Collie could go down at any moment and then you wouldn't get any value from the spot. At least with Moss you always have name recognition. If he has a solid week, you'll probably be able to move him and get a RB or something.

Plus I think Moss will outproduce Collie. He'll be a nice red zone target for the 49ers. I think thats where they'll use him most. His limited work load will probably grow as the soon goes on if he can perform. I see a lot more upside in Moss at the end of the day.

Would you do this trade?

I give Trent and Fitzpatrick; I get Rivers and Donald Brown

My other QB is Locker

My other RBs are Rice, Sproles, Ridley, P. Thomas, Jacquizz Rodgers



Thanks

I think you are giving up too much at this point. Its tough because your QBs could be a decent tandem with Fitzpatrick and Locker based on match-ups, but Rivers and Brown is decent return. Knowing your QB situation, I think you should leave that option open while exploring trading options with owners involving Trent. Someone might give you even more. I always hated when I didn't know someone was on the market and I would have given up more for the guy when I see two teams make a trade.

I threw out a lot of deeper sleepers in this article:
Fantasy Football Sleepers: Zombie Apocalypse Edition

I tried to not repeat what other people are predicting. But Brandon LaFell, Kendall Hunter, Ryan Turbin, David Wilson. Let me know if you need anymore.

Im intrigued with Jonathan Dwyer as a possible starting RB for pit. Should I drop roy helu for him? My RBs are Sproles, Ridley, Forte, Benson, and Helu. I also have Lance moore and greg little on my bench. PPR format.

Your RBs are pretty solid. I like Helu because I think he'll have a larger impact than Dwyer. With Mendenhall coming off the PUP list, they predict he should be good to go by Week 5. Redman and Dwyer's only real value comes in the first 3 weeks, because Week 4 is the Steeler's bye. Mendenhall will kill their production if he comes back healthy, even with limited touches.

Redskins RB situation ain't rosy either :snoop:, shanahan is the biggest troll in fantasy football.
