Whats up everybody? workin on getting this coli mixtape out so i've been quiet, but what do you guys think of Matt Forte's injury. I doubt we'll get much information with the Bears probably going with a :beli: approach. Teams have to game plan for him, he's such a big playmaker. I can easily see him missing this week and next while coming back to make a flex option impact that third week. Then back to RB1 status, but he could be out much longer and who knows if he'll make a full impact. Being the gambling player I am, but I took a shot at trading for Forte. I had him in another league and figured he kinda burnt me in one, why not try to have him be a hero in another type approach. The guy offered me Matt Forte and Randall Cobb for Larry Fitzgerald and Rashad Mendenhall. I countered with Peyton Hillis and Rashad Mendenhall for Matt Forte. Luckily, he accepted and it just passed through voting. Starting the year, my RBs were just Ray Rice, Peyton Hills, Alfred Morris, and Rashad Mendenhall. I now have Ray Rice, Willis McGahee, Matt Forte, and Kendall Hunter. If Forte is back sooner rather than later, I'll be making out like a bandit in this deal.

Injury ain't that serious breh... They are just being cautious. I was shook for a second because I thought it was a high ankle sprain, but besides last year he's never missed significant time. He should be back next week. You definitely are gonna :eat:

I had Mendenhall on 4 out of my 5 CBS teams, so I figured I didn't want to be burned holding a roster spot if he sucks on all those teams. And the chance to nab Forte was the icing on the cake, even though I think Hillis will def start producing.

The fukk u got forte for hillis and mendenhall

I was shocked it made it through voting. Now I'm def eating with the Hillis injury. He had another RB injury and panicked I think. That team is 1-2 though and I just had McGahee go down. I need this team to make a strong run

Okay, I need some advice on a trade.
I'm in a PPR league and I'm stacked with RBs:
Forte, Gore, Richardson, Ridley, Spiller, and LeShoure.

I need to upgrade my defense and they wanted either Gore or Forte. Given the injury and my depth, is it worth trading Forte?

by defense.. do you mean d/st or idp?

for d/st, no way. i'm not too sure about idp. i guess it depends on who you're getting and how everything is scored.
