Cassell stinks. I don't think Quinn is that big of a downgrade from Cassell. Bowe is a garbage time fantasy receiving stud. Like Brandon Lloyd in Denver a few years back. Quinn will still be able to complete garbage time passes.

Ogletree sucks so I am happy to get rid of him. I just dont know if I should give up on Davis...Pettigrew isn't bad, he just fumbles alot lately...

It depends, who are your other WR's and are you forced to play Ogletree all the time, not to mention do you have another option at TE?

Haha tell me about it. Im in an 18 team league. Hard to stash depth with that many teams..

My WR's: Wes Welker, Malcom Floyd, Jerome Simpson. So no I dont play Ogletree much.

No other TE unforutnately. Davis got 0 points last week as he wasn't even targeted. I highly doubt that will be the norm tho... Steven Johnson is intriguing tho.

[DropIt]

Andre Johnson for McFadden straight across. 2 struggling players and both have a pretty light remaining schedule. I do need the WR help alot more than the RB but im still not sure if McFadden will go off in the second half of the year of if he will get hurt as per usual.

[nickerjones]

If you have 2 other good RB's I would take the WR every time

[nickerjones]

Do I trade Jason Witten so I can get Dez Bryant?

Its a 3 WR / 2RB/ 1 Te league..

I have WR Hartline, Jordy Nelson, Hixon ( NYG) , Steve Smith ( Carolina)
RBs I have Ridley , Peterson, Bush
TE I have Witten and Aaron Hernandez.

I have had WR troubles all season. Should I trade Witten to get DEZ?

Personally I'd take that. I know Dez has been maddeningly inconsistent this year.... but the guy is just too talented for this to continue. I'd expect that the 'Boys are going to ramp up their passing game with the injuries to Murray and Jones.

Essentially, I think you have a decent starter in Hernandez (despite coming off injury). Meanwhile, I think Bryant greatly adds to your depth at WR as I personally don't trust Hartline and Hixon is going to slowly be phased out in the Giants passing game as Nicks gets healthy.

Just my .02 cents though.

[nickerjones]

just needed some affirmation. Im doing it.

[nickerjones]

my other thought is then I can use Dez and Ridley to maybe get a better WR

Thing is Johnson becomes one of your top receivers even if he isnt having a great season

Got a couple questions on who to start this week.

Start two of: Trent Richardson (injured, playing against chargers), Miles Austin (against giants), Dez Bryant (against Giants), Denarius Moore (against Chiefs)

Start either: Vick or Newton. Not happy with either guy or either matchup.

Would you drop Denarius Moore for Mike Williams (TB)?

Austin and Moore. I think Richardson won't play. Richardson and Austin if Richardson happens to play.

Newton I think. But yeah, ugly matchups. Vick just turns over the ball too much against anyone even though Bears will probably force some out of Newton too.

I'd keep Moore. #1 receiver on a pass first team since they don't like giving McFadden the ball 20 times a game.

Austin and Moore. Richardson doesn't look like he will be playing and keep Moore in your starting lineup now, regardless of opponent. Oakland will be passing a ton since McFadden has been struggling.

I think Vick or Newton is a toss up.

I heard Richardson will play, how much though is the question.

If he doesn't play alot then I am hooped for this week. I already have Murray out and I don't have much in the way of RB's on my bench. I lost out on Jones last week and Jennings this on the waiver wire. I have Powell, but he sucked last week and LSH should get the bulk of the playing time again.

I did make this offer to one guy:

I get Morris and Washington, he gets Rivers and DeSean Jackson

If you absolutely need an RB I would suggest potentially picking up Vick Ballard, Donald Brown is expected to be out for one more week and the Titans D is horrendous

[DropIt]

Bowe and McFadden for S. Moss and Welker. Once again I am currently strong at running back and weaker at WR, but I essentially gain 2 more bye weeks this way in Welker and Moss as DMC and Bowe have played theirs

Oh I guess I should add that I also lost out on Ballard too.

[TitovFTW]

If Bowe somehow does get traded, his value goes up into a top 10 Fantasy WR in my mind. Right now, he's a great talent on an offense that is bound to really struggle.

Trent Richardson even if he plays is going to be in some time of time share with Hardesty.

[Hockey]

Ok who would be the best option for me this week?

Pierre Thomas
Kendall Hunter
Daryl Richardson.
