With Burleson out for a while, I think Johnson will see more targets, and I always worry about Charles staying healthy. If I had CJ, I wouldn't do it, but Fozzie is right, it all depends on roster depth.

So in my 16 team league, I had the 16th overall pick after winning last season. With that draft spot, I was lucky enough to end up with Ridley, Mathews, Moreno and Pead as my running backs.

Usually I am good at being patient with my teams but after being a solid 40 points for behind everyone else in this league would it be to early or crazy for me to just package Mathews and a #3 WR (Moss/T.Austin) for solid #2 and just try to go out with top end WR play the rest of the season and suffer the below average RBs?

I've gotten an offer already to pick up Edelman/Cotchery for Mathews/Moss

Also, this is the first year that waiting on a QB has come back to bite me... my Eli Manning/Schaub tandem is doing me no favours

Is it a PPR league? Still it's a hard call. One Amendola is back , he becomes Brady's go to welker like guy.

It is PPR, and as much as I thought that it was mentioned that Edelman had Welker's spot last year before he got hurt. and one of his best games came when Amendola was actually healthy this year

I have Brandon Marshall and Demaryius Thomas as well on WR.

For RB I have CJ Spiller, Montee Ball, Isaac Redman and Danny Woodhead. Pretty thin, especially given Spiller's start. I'm nervous about trading Johnson because this is a 5 keeper league, and he tends to just go beast mode 80% of the time.

Wow you have a stacked WR team lol.

If I were you I would probably do it based on your RB needs.

I know... and I had to drop Randall Cobb and Jimmy Graham at the beginning of the year. On top of having Peyton as my QB, my first round exit last year was heartbreaking.

But how long will he even last? 2 games . . . maybe?

He's missed something like 20 games in the last two seasons, not even counting how fast he went out this year.

Yeah Yeah I get it... He is the Mikael Backlund of the NFL but really I understand.

I don't know what's with me this year, but after 9 years of playing FF, for some reason I've completely lost interest in all my leagues. Haven't even tried to improve my roster since draft day in all 3.

Still early, but this may be my last year in the CP league...unless I somehow finish top 3 and make the A league. Then I'll pretend I never said this

Mike Wallace is a FA in our 12 team league. I am tempted to drop Daniel Thomas and pick him up. What do the wise minds of CP think? Also, we have a 3 man bench and 1 IR.

RB I have Spiller, Miller, L. Bell, Fred Jackson, Daniel Thomas.

WR I have C. Johnson, Wayne, T. Austin, Harvin (on IR)

With Bell back in the fold and having a nice debut I would think Thomas is expendable now.

Whew...taking a risk almost cost me big in the B league last night. Noticed late Sunday I had started A-Rodg and Jordy Nelson (bye week), so quickly snagged up Tannehill for an emergency start.

Didn't want to drop one of my dark horses though, so only being down by 6.5pts going into MNF, I just left Nelson in there and figured Tannehill alone would be enough to win. But I didn't take the lead until the last 5min of the game. Lesson learned, woulda been so mad if that had cost me a W.

Traded away AP this last week to get some more help in the WR department.

Traded AP + Colston for Bush and Bryant. Funny thing is this week im in the same division as the guy I traded with and I play him with AP on his bye week

Lineup is now:

Ryan - QB
Schaubb - QB
Marshall - WR
Bryant - WR
Austin - WR
Hilton - WR
Heyward-Bey - WR
Daniels - TE
Clay - TE
Bush - RB
Jackson - RB
Mathews - RB
Williams - RB

Hauschka - K
KC - Def

League setup is QB, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, WR/TE, K, DEF

I'm kinda worried about how long Bush will last - can't see him lasting the entire season with his injury history.

Wr. Demaryius Thomas
Wr. James Jones
Wr. Eddie Royal
Wr. Emmanuel Sanders
Wr. Mike Williams

Rb. Alfred Morris
Rb. Marshawn Lynch
Rb. Lamar Miller
