Also have a waiver out for Coates and dropping Torrey Smith.

Didn't Forsett get released?

I know Julio and Lacy have been frustrating but everyone you received, combined, isn't worth julio.

It sounds like Forsett is going to be the #1 guy in Detroit right now due to injuries. I'm willing to take a chance on him.

Julio has cost me two losses this season (three if you include the bad decision of sitting him during his 40 point week.) I'm willing to give him up in order to get more stable points from Crabtree even if it is only 15 or so per week.

Definitely feels like you gave up way too much in your package, but that's just me.

Maybe I could see McCoy + Crabtree = Julio (bad season)

Pretty much gave 2 RB1's (on their respective team) for Forsett (flyer)

Coates has a hand in a 'sizeable' cast today at practice.

He's just protecting his cut hand. It's not a permanent cast so he should be good to play on Sunday!

I think I might pull the plug on Jeremy Hill and take a flyer on a potential sleeper. Had him last year too and he seems slow and one dimensional. Plus Cincy is behind often and have to go to the passing game which Gio is better at. Missed out on Howard when I had the #2 waiver position and the guy before me took him.

As great as Antonio is, thats a great haul. Coleman and Freeman have been solid so far. MJJ is having a good year too. Pats D > Bungles D.

2 Questions

Eddie Lacy or Jamaal Charles today?

Would you have done this trade?
Give up OBJ and Latavius Murray (I have AJ Green, TY Hilton and Mike Evans)
Get Jaamal Charles and Michael Crabtree

I'm always wary of road teams in survivor pools. Depends on who you have and haven't burned yet.

On that list I'd likely list Pittsburgh, and Buffalo as safest. But you won't get another chance to use Tennessee this year. Whereas Buffalo and
Pittsburgh still have Cleveland on the schedule.

I'd gamble on the Titans.

Started Case Keenum today. Don't regret it AT ALL.

four of my first six picks this year were Doug Martin, Sammy Watkins, Eric Decker and Jonathan Stewart, also lost Zach Ertz for a while and Shane Vereen ... but somehow I'm still going to be 4-2 after this week. Very lucky with the matchups recently.
