Here's my current squad:

QB: Vick
QB: Wilson
RB: Lynch
RB: McFadden :snoop:
RB: McGahee
RB: Mendenhall
WR: Demaryius Thomas
WR: Brandon Marshall
WR: Reggie Wayne
WR: Golden Tate
WR: Robert Woods
TE: Vernon Davis
TE: Owen Daniels
D/ST: Denver Broncos
K: Mason Crosby

My main concerns are that I'd have to start Stafford if Vick goes down, and I don't know if he's going to continue putting up decent numbers. Wilson and Vick get rushing yards that really boost their value. But I could really use a dependable WR to put in at the flex -- IS HE a better option that Reggie Wayne? Wayne can put up numbers but comes up short some weeks. Nicks has put up shytty numbers for most of the season, but he's got to get more consistent eventually.

What do you guys think?

edit: Another thing -- I play the guy this week. I could hold off until after our game to accept the trade, most likely. I don't want to start Stafford vs. Cleveland when I can start Wilson at home.

Can u get a rb instead of nicks?

Giovanni Bernard... He puts up decent numbers save for last week... but he's a relatively new name and that puts fear in my heart.

I forgot that I also have Robert Woods on the bench.. So, I definitely need a RB more than a WR. Should I take Bernard instead?

edit: Also, it seems that the Bengals are giving BenJarvus more carries than Bernard, despite Bernard performing better.

What kind of league we talking about?

I think we get a point for 25 KR/PR yards, or something like that. Nothing big.

I would do it for Gio then but first I would wait and see what's up with Calvin cause stafford turns into Steve Bono without him

You get Stafford AND Nicks/Bernard for Wilson? Do that in a heartbeat. It's an even split between the QBs already, if not a slight advantage for Stafford, especially when Calvin comes back. Take Bernard if you can get him. Eventually he'll supplant BGE as Cincy's primary back (hopefully near fantasy playoffs).

@Front 2 Back @Regular_P @King Diesel I got a new trade offer brehs

RG3, DeSean Jackson, Darren Sproles for Russ Wilson and Demaryius Thomas

Hell of a deal but All 3 of those guys are up and down. What's the better deal??

Honestly I wouldn't do, it's enticing but like u said they go off one game and they are complete shyt another. Just try to get a stud running back it's all you need

It's really RG3 and Jackson for Wilson and Thomas because Sproles is not gonna produce week in and week out. I wouldn't do it either because Thomas is in an offense that averages 46 points a week, so he's very likely to get numbers every week (and more consistently than Jackson). RG3 gets a lot of garbage time points and figures to get better as he gets healthier...he might end up a shade better than Wilson, especially with that dogshyt defense, so they're always playing from behind. Seattle is a run first team and their WRs aren't that great.

Probably about an even trade all things considered, but no sense in making it, in my opinion.
