Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I did the previously unthinkable and started Roethlisberger ahead of Rodgers in fantasy today, and so far it's worked out for me.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
Don't you hate it when people propose dumbass trades to you?
The players he wanted to get rid of: Anquan Boldin Percy Harvin Shonn Greene Dennis Pita My players he wanted: Dez Bryant Julio Jones Christian Ponder Matt Forte This dude knows that I'm not a idiot, but it blows my mind he still sends shit like this. This should probably go into "Grinds my Gears"....lol

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
that was a good call Mooby. Takes some balls to sit the top passer the last several years.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I have a WR dilemma this week.
Here are my WRs; Cobb, Jennings, Brandon Marshall, Andre Hawkins. Should I go with both packers against the saints, or just Marshall and Jennings although Marshall has been streaky and is going against a tough cowboys D/secondary. Or Hawkins who has been lighting up the NFL field getting double digit fantasy points, going against the Jags.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
If Jennings is back healthy, you have to go with him and Marshall. If any doubts about his health, replace him with Hawkins.
Cobb isn't consistent yet, I own him on a few teams. Now, if you're in a return-yardage league, Cobb is a must-start.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I'd go with Jennings and Hawkins.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
Also, benched Brees v. G.Bay for Flacco v. Cleveland.
Thoughts? Anyone think that's crazy? I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around benching Brees.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
As to lowball trades, I guess it depends. It may just be a feeler, to let you know they are interested but unsure of what you would be willing to accept. For lowballs, I generally reject if I have no interest or, sometimes, if slightly interested make an equally preposterous counter offer. If actually interested in off-loading the targeted player, I'll counter offfer with something I consider reasonable.
I guess it's all how you view the negotiations process. I've made a few lowball offers that ended up with good substantive trades benifitting both parties.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
Another general question to the group - how many leagues do you all participate in?
I am currently in 2 but have done 3. After that, I tend to lose track of who I am rooting for to do what. For folks who do more than 4 or 5, how do figure out who to root for? Or is it just a matter of "I'll play lots in hopes I hit the right combo somewhere"?

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I'm in 2 leagues and I'm 3-0 in both. Build balance across your teams and you can win consistently. Its that easy. However Fantasy football involves a lot of luck and finding late round gems. I got RG3 in round 9 and he now starts over Tom Brady for me.
