Yeah, and Sanders is emerging to be the real deal and no reason to think Peyton will stop throwing to him. He even tore up the Seattle secondary. Naturally, I sat him that week.
Also, in JV league, I have both Delanie Walker and Gronk. Will consider trades, but I will be blunt here: I would only trade either of them for a top level RB, and more likely it would be for Walker. I also have an abundance of WRs still...I think Malcolm Floyd and Mike Wallace are more or less permanent bench warmers, at least until Percy Harvin sprains his vag.
Just out of curiosity who do you consider a top RB? |

Well for starters, anyone who isn't DOUG FUCKING MARTIN. Or like Pierre Thomas, who somehow senses he's been put on my bench, and THEN proceeds to go nuts.
Basically, I don't know, beyond the obvious ones.
Seriously, though, fuck you Doug Martin.

I wish this f13league was a keeper auction league with the number of team owners who play every year.

We can try a keeper league next year for a few years. Nothing wrong with spicing things up. I will poll the group as the time comes. I would be interested just because I have never done one before. |

I would be interested in completely failing at a keeper league.

Keeper leagues only ever work when you have a group of managers that have the same level of interest invested. I don't think it would go well with the f13 crowd. Most of the people here take a very casual approach to fantasy sports.

I hate keeper leagues. They are always the idea of a like 4 people in the league who are super invested, and it fucks everyone else. |

Well, I am certainly not going to insist. The point about needing all the participants to have equal interest is a good reason not to do it here at F13.

I just don't like the idea that in a keeper league you're perpetually fucked if things start to go wrong.

Feel like its the opposite. If things start going down hill you can trade for keeper value for next year. Makes it so everyone pays attention. And you can structure auction $$ bonuses to keep people interested in winning near the end of the year. But ya. You need people that are jazzed about it. Its why a large buy in usually works. |

That's the theory is you trade if things go wrong. The actuality of that isn't really what I've seen happen. In my experience the best players get locked up for eternity, and nobody really has a chance because their keepers are untradable.
But yeah, you need to have a commitment and it needs to be cash.

Reminds me. We'll need a new commissioner for the JV league after the season. Let me know if you're interested.

No worries, I am sure this will spark Doug Martin out of his slump. Maybe he'll even run for an additional five yards in the second half, wouldn't that be neat.

I got fucked over by Reggie Bush getting declared out at the last minute. So that sucked.

Good news is you drop the deadweight of Fleener and Rudolph and snag a couple guys off the wire that could help second half of season like: RB Ronnie Hillman (the dude for next couple weeks) Mark Ingram (the dude in a couple weeks) Isaiah Crowell (the dude when Tate goes down) Bishop Sankey (TEN has got to just give it to him for the rest of the season, right?) WR Malcolm Floyd (quietly scoring 7-15 pts every game and Royal just went down) Andre Holmes (biggest Redzone receiver on baby Carr's OAK) Odell Beckham, Jr. (Cruz is out and ODB is taking his role) (Nevermind, I wants him!). |

Russell Wilson's War has the kiss of death this year:
Knowshon Out for Season
Victor Cruz Out for Season
Ridley Out for Season
Graham Injured
Currently dropping all the players he has in all my other leagues, that's crazy town.

Yeah, had all but Graham in another league of mine too so the injuries hit me twice. This was an awful week.

Fitz got his first TD and 98 yds so yes I fail, but I would not have played him anyway. Neither did Kilt Wavers, but he still won. On the other hand, Jimmy Graham is out some Colston's stock is up a bit. |

On the other hand, Jimmy Graham is out some Colston's stock is up a bit. Ya, noticed that. A bit worried about our matchup. I feel I have a lot of obvious starters that are going to underperform as teams game plan for them (Julio, Walker and Forte) and you have a lot of guys due for TDs in bouncebacks (Lynch, Donnell, Bradshaw). |

You think like I do. I am a big fan of the "bounceback" theory of fantasy.

According to Yahoo, there's a 4% chance that Antonio Brown and Arian Foster will combine for a net negative 6 points in the final 3 quarters of this terrible game.

I'm not even sure what to do at QB anymore - Brady's 31 points didn't net me a victory but I can't say I was wrong to pick him over Wilson based on that game against the Cowboys. |

My one regret of this season is rage-punting Brady off my team. Fortunately, when I faced him this week I was able to wafflestomp my opponent and avoid any irony.

Anyone want Montee Ball in the main league?
He's taking up an unnecessary spot for me that I have...other designs for but feel bad dropping him to the wire.
Not sure who wants to sit on him though.
