My WRs are K. Benjamin, M. Wallace and B. Quick. So the loss of D. Thomas will not be too bad. However, I do have doubts that D. Thomas will explode again like he did in the prior week. Peyton has E. Sanders, J. Thomas (frankly, he snakes a lot of red zone TDs from D. Thomas) and a healthy W. Welker.

The trade proposer has Cutler and Stafford as other QBs (2 QB league).

Anyways, long story short: I'm hesitant to trade D. Thomas for B. Hoyer. I'd trade Thomas for either Stafford or Cutler (proposer likely wont trade Cutler though). I am also thinking of doing the exact trade and then subbing in K. Benjamin instead of D. Thomas.

What do y'all think?
The other question is who are your RB's ?

Is Hoyer a real upgrade over Big Ben?

My current WRs are Marshall, Dez, Julio, Harvin and Gordon, unfortunately that means my RBs are very weak (Moreno, Asiata, Sankey, Gerhart etc.) Which WR should I try to move for RB help? I'm leaning towards Marshall

You have 4 high-end receivers.

Dez will get his touches and his TDs. Keeper
Julio again in Atlanta is Ryan's main target. Keeper
Marshall is outstanding but does has had some injury problem and has Alshon and Bennett to commpete with for the ball.
Harvin is a dual threat so keep him.

So Marshall, you're right would be the odd man out.

I got another trade proposal... I give Morris and get Cousins. I'm inclined to do this deal.

Why is that? I think once RG3 is healthy that the Red Skins have too much invested in him not to get him back under center, which will make Cousin's useless.

Unless your league is a 2QB format, I think there generally is a chance to pick up the Alex Smith's of the world and play matchups at QB if you don't have one of the top end studs. I wouldn't be trading a back like Morris for a potential bench warming QB.

Marshall would likely be the smart move i think, However I think you should play him another week or two and get his value back up. Trestman has stated a few times that now that he is healthy they are going to get Marshall the ball alot more...

Although I think you put feelers out there and see what you can get for Harvin as well.. Especially if its a PPR league.

If Atlanta is at home then Ryan. If away, flip a coin.

I shouldn't even have to be asking this question, but should I start Bortles or Brady. I just ask cuz I know Brady is hurt and Bortles is going against a depleted Titans team. Also thin at secondary

It was a great choice starting Flacco over Rodgers today. He is putting up some incredible points.

I started Romo over Flacco... that might have been a bad choice

Peyton Manning or Cam Netwon this week? Antonio Gates or Julius Thomas? So torn ... I'm leaning towards Manning and Gates but I'd appreciate some input from more experienced players. I'm up against a stacked team this week (we're both 5-1 so far ) and the owner happens to be my best pal, so I really want to win this one
