Thoughts on this trade??
I get Marques Colston + 9th rd pick (top 5 picks usually keepers - so about a 4th rd pick) for Peyton Hillis + Zach Miller.

My other RB's are CJ and Charles, other WR are Wayne + Gaffney, my TE is Clark.

I really want to move a QB (I have Rodgers, Cutler and Vick) in exchange for a top tier RB/WR but everyone in my league is pretty passive and apparently not willing to part with anyone good enough to make the trade worth it for me. Looks like I'm just going to hold all 3 for a while and at least keep points out of my opponents hands.

Proposed Cutler and Garcon for Marshall and Ward to a team that has Kolb as their only QB. Hoping I can leverage some of that desperation.

Let me get this straight. You have a owner in your league that has Kolb at QB and nobody else? So basically he has no QB. Either this guy has an intellectual disability, or he doesn't care and hasn't even looked at his team in weeks. Offer him Vick for a RB or WR (if he has anyone worth while).

I'd do it! Only because I think Hillis is a flash in the pan.

It's a she. 'Nuff said

I got Marshall and Ward for Cutler and Garcon. Pretty pleased with that.

So how do you do trades in the yahoo fantasy? I'm in the C league: Purple People Eaters. I need a RB and can trade a WR.

After this week, I could probably consider trading away Forte.

I pulled the pin this morning...ended up getting an 8th Rd pick as well. I agree on Hillis. He's a great 3rd down back, but he has a VERY TOUGH schedule the rest of the way.

Boldin, Hillis, or Mathews in my flex spot (PPR league)?

That is a tough one rubecube. Hillis' touches will be cut into by Harrison this week. Mathews is healthy (I'm gonna play him) but Flacco and Boldin are synched up pretty good right now.

I lean towards Mathews.

Edit - Hillis is getting a lot of love from the panel shows this week. I dunno, maybe Hillis is the smarter play.

Well nice to see the guys in my money league are playing fair. I had a pie in the sky matchup this week, until a couple of questionable trades saw my opponent pick up Michael Vick and Donald Driver for a song and a ham sandwich. My RB's better pick it up in the second half here.

I'm in 3 FF leagues, not one person started the Giants defense... What a shame.

Well. I win this week as long as Tom Brady doesn't get 75pts tomorrow.

In my one league where I have the really bad team...I'm up 46-36 going into tonights game. My opponent has Tom Brady left to play and I have Aaron Hernandez. QB scoring in that league isn't that great as passing TD's are only worth 4 points and 1 point for every 25 yards passing with deductions for sacks, fumbles, and int's. He'd only have 31 points if it wasn't for his 5 point home field.

It has to be the most epic display of awful fantasy football in history.

I've been offered McNabb/Garcon for Bradford/Sproles.

I'm tempted since I'm weak in WR (Calvin Johnson, Demaryius Thomas, Kenny Britt), and Sproles is riding my bench, but this is a keeper league and I'm thinking Bradford can be a stud for a long time.


After starting the season 0-2, I have evened my record to 2-2 and scored the most points in the league this week, so my team is kind of rolling.

I wouldn't say you are terribly weak at WR, but it depends on who your other QB's are. Becuase if you start Bradford starting from now, I'm not sure you'd win lots of games.

But being a keeper, Bradford will be a gem in years to come!

Yeah, I think I'm going to turn down this trade. It is actually fairly similar to one I offered him last week, that he turned down. The difference is this time he is asking for Bradford (who he could have got off the waiver wire at that time).

I'm thinking everyone skipped Bradford at the start of the season since they expected him to struggle much more than he has.

I'm just rolling along in my keeper league. 4-0, with the most points scored. Averaging 150 points a week so far.

Good call. If you are in need of a good QB in a keeper league. Bradford is worth keeping.

I have had Phillip Rivers in my league for the past two seasons. The guy has helped me to a 1st and 2nd place finish so far.
