The hate for my dude Asi is comedy breh...

All I keep hearing is "plodder" and 3 YPC...

Check these stats out...

Matt Asiata: 47/159 = 3.4 ypc
Monte Ball: 49/165 = 3.4 ypc
Gio Bernard: 55/185 = 3.4 ypc

Both Ball and Gio were/are considered borderline RB1...Granted Ball has an excuse, the defenses he's been running against have been ridiculous against the run and it won't get any easier for dude anytime soon but they still got him down as a RB1...but Asiata apparently is a plodding TD dependent RB3/FLEX...Nevermind the fact dude has already dropped a double digit game in week 3 without a TD (PPR) but lets disregard that and keep talking about how amazing his backups combine was...:beli:

the monte love has seemed forced from day 1 and gio is servicable but probably makes more sense in a ppr which i never play. azi shouldn't be a back you're counting on, but as a rb3/flex option, you should be as confident plugging him in as anyone based on production. i saw a lot of mckinnion pickups and it might make sense for dynasty but in a regular league, i don't get it when you can fill more immediate needs.

This is my team as currently constructed

I was offered DeMarco Murray and Percy Harvin for AJ Green and Jordy Nelson


What do you guys think?

Only reason I would consider it is because drafting AP has really fukked me over at running back, but I'd hate to give up two quality receivers in a league that requires at least 3 WR every week.

:whew: that's tough, but I think it's too much to pay for DeMarco. Who are his other receivers? I just don't trust Percy to be consistent enough for you.


Oh, and :pacspit: CBS fantasy...their interface is one of the worst out there.

His other receivers are Kelvin Benjamin, Larry Fitzgerald, Jordan Matthews, and Marques Colston


Harvin is who I would be interested the most out of that group

I really hate stupid people...

This damn fool in my league who is 2-2 cuz of his schedule (beat the two worst teams in the league) is starting Brady and Fasano at qb/te...yes you read that right, Anthony Fasano the blocking TE on the Chiefs...

Im giving him Stafford and Olsen for Marshawn, two productive starters in exchange for one and he tells me he believes Brady is going to turn it around...:what:

He also claims he doesnt have another rb to cover giving up Marshawn...He got gio with khiry, steve jackson and peirce on the bench...

I'm going to laugh on Monday when Brady has another awful game against the Bengals and Fasano doesn't catch a single pass...

fukking idiot...:smh:

See I think Kelvin actually offers the most consistency for you. He's the lone option on a team with banged up RBs, so they have to throw. Just a better bet for touchdowns. You can try countering with AJ and Gronk maybe...

:scust:

I wouldn't be moving Marshawn if those were my other guys. Khiry's headed back to the bench in two weeks, Jackson is :flabbynsick: and Pierce might be on his way to being the 3rd RB behind Forsett and Taliferro(sp). :manny:

You wouldnt trade Lynch for stafford/Olsen when youre starting Brady and Anthony Fasano ? :what:

Combined Olsen/Stafford can outscore Brady/Fasano/Lynch by a wide margin on any given week...

Points win FF...

Nah I get what you're saying. I just think it's easier to stream QBs and TEs than it is to stream RBs. If he's lazy and not working the waiver wire every week, he ain't gonna do shyt with Stafford and Olsen either. Lynch is a top 3 RB...much harder to replace.

I see what you're saying, but you're making my point for me regarding carrying two defenses. If you're hesitant to play the Cincy defense against NE (who has struggled offensively against everyone except Minnesota), you're simply treating them as a matchup play like any other defense that is probably out on waivers. You might as well drop Cincy then, and start SD against the Jets this week and against Oakland next week.

I see your point.

I feel you, breh.

Guy in my league is 0-4 and complaining only now about how he didn't really want to play in a 2QB starter format and threatening to quit. :dahell:

But yet when he drafted Cam, RG3 and Carson Palmer dude was poppin crazy shyt on draft day. :leon:

Mind you this nincompoop, who only has Cam at QB right now, dropped Carr this week for Matt McGloin (who's on a bye) when the ONLY OTHER STARTING QB left on waivers was Glennon. :shaq2:

You know I scooped up Mike Glennon this morning. :sas2:

I feel you breh but this is a very competitive QB league...

There is nothing available at QB or TE...He is playing the 4 toughest teams in the league the next 4 weeks with Brady/Fasano :russ:

For what its worth I gave him a similar offer for Gio...Eli/Olsen for Gio and still dude gave me the same nonsense...I'm done with this idiot...
