I'm in a 14 team league...5 keepers...and got this offer yesterday. Corey Davis for Dez Bryant and a 7th.

I have Davis now...but this seems like a no brainer to me. A rookie, with big upside, for a top 15 wr and pick.

I have a flex spot open this week (PPR league) and my options are Jordan Howard, DeSean Jackson and Tyrell Williams. Who would you pick? Howard really crapped the bed last week and I guess Cohen will get a fair share of touches again. Williams has been solid so far, not sure about Jackson. Thanks in advance.

I would recommend Williams or Jackson, therefore go with Howard.

Trade Proposed to me:

I Receive:
Jarvis Landry

I give up:
Jamaal Charles

Landry gets a ton of targets, but hasn't put up a lot of points yet.
Charles seems to be getting more work each week and had a TD week 3.

Do I accept?

Two weeks in a row I'm involved in a game where the loser has the second-highest score in the league. Last week I was on the winning end but on the other end this week. Super frustrating.

I need 7 points from Crowder, Witten and JJ Nelson to win this week and end up getting 3.5. So frustrating.

I'm 1-2 with 303 total points (2nd highest point total) in our ongoing 12 team standard keeper league.
Have been hearing about leagues playing weekly doubleheaders, or not playing head to head until playoffs.

My thoughts as well. I ended up rejecting the trade.

RB depth is crucial in our 16 team league.

I would take it. Like you said, Landry gets a lot of targets: this will likely lead to points down the road.

Charles on the other hand, IMO, is well below CJ Anderson on the Broncos RB depth chart. He'll get the odd long run here and there, but I don't think he'll be a reliable option to start in any league that is not super deep.

*Edit: sorry, didn't see you already declined the trade offer. Guess we'll see how this plays out.

I had the Ravens in this week. These bums got me -6 points and I ended up losing this week because of that. BY THREE POINTS!!! Very frustrating when you would be better having not started any team, then get negative points. Who would have thought the Jags would put up 44 points though...

5-1, playing a guy 1-5 who's an Oakland fan, and has a lot of homer picks. Averaging about 70pts/week. After being out for the night, I check the score before bed and he's up 79.4 - 17.7 already. WHAAAAAT?!

Amari Cooper (33 pts)
Carr (30.2)
Tyreek Hill (19.2)

You're kiiiiiidding me.

I had Carr, Cooper, Lynch, and Jared Cook. I was up 98 to 11.4 after Thusday. We get 1 point per reception and bonus points for 40 yard plays. Had Cook got that extra half yard I would have been up 105 to 2.4 since he had Crabtree.

Even with 0.9 points from Lynch I still ended up with 214.5 points. I think in the three leading up to this I had 230 combined. I expect I'll put up 75 this week.

what a team this has turned out to be ... I'm 7-0 right now, the next best teams are 4-3. Very lucky with the matchups so far, long may it continue. Grabbing Elliott in the 6th round or so has turned out great, though that may come back to haunt me if they finally decide to uphold the suspension.

Can you trade draft picks? I think you could ask for a bit more. I think the risk may be worth it as Kamara will never be an every-down back, Reminds me of Theo Riddick.
