Last year I drafted Jordy Nelson in one of the last rounds...cut him before the season to get a backup RB :mindblown:


Drafted Gronkowski in another late round (drafted Whitten earlier)...he had a few good games while Hernandez was out hurt, so I traded him when Hernandez got healthy because i thought theyd split touches and Whitten was putting up numbers :snoop: I think I got Jonathon Stewart in return :deadrose:


Still came in third in my league, but still

I had 3 fantasy teams last year and got Gronkowski on all 3 teams. Cut him in two leagues and only kept him in one.

Traded Jonathon Stewart for Cam Newton though which was a great deal.

Never cut your sleeper picks. You chose them for a reason.

Cut Mendenhall the year he broke out before the season started for I think Steve Breaston or someone like that.

A few Floors Down from the Daily Grind
I remember picking Jason Taylor rather high in a snake draft league 5-6 years ago on the :hamster: and he did shyt for 4 weeks.

I'm a patient man, and was still sitting on him when his bye week came. I decided I would let him go, grab a replacement and drop the replacement for him again on Tuesday and hope he slipped through since he was doing nothing.

Some fukk noticed and had a higher waiver claim than I did and won his rights the next week.

He then proceeded to go off for like 7 weeks in a row with like 2 sacks a week and about 10,000 forced fumbles.

:snoop:

houston.
2 years ago drafted McFadden at the end of round 15, then dropped him after the Draft because I forgot to pick up a defense. He had a pretty good couple of games before he got hurt.

Just last year I picked up Cam Newton off waivers after week 1. That same week I traded him for Big Ben :snoop:
