2015 Redcafe NFL Fantasy League
- Thread starter Eboue
- Start date
Sylar is a fellow Packer fan and posts regularly in both NFL and WWE threads. Nothing on the rest though!I have discussed plenty of trades with RusselWilson since he likes to get all the waiver RBs on his bench. He usally responds to be fair.
You can pm newbies?
Yeah. Sure.
Yes, the whole trade where he accidentally traded me Lacy for Big Ben was over PM.
Accidentally?
Yes, it was reversed by @Eboue right away. He offered me something, I used the counter offer button on NFL.com and he clicked accept instead of reject so yes, accidentally.
In hindsight a good thing that I didn't end up with lacy as I think I traded Big Ben later on for Forte who is now coming back from injury

It was with me and we both benefited from it, so yes it was a good thing.
How are y'all fairing in your other leagues, by the way?
4-6, sitting in 5th place in an 8-man league. Playing the league leader (7-3) this weekend, fortunately he has OBJ and Antonio Brown on their byes so I actually stand a chance although he still has Amari Cooper and Mike Evans as WRs
8-2-0 Also on NFL.com in the deadest league there is. If you think I am exaggerating, here is who I picked up from waivers and FA on October 28th. (week 8)

Awfully similar to JP77. You can still probably make the playoffs in both leagues.
And i thought our league wasn't tough enough.
Demaryius Thomas DEN
T.J. Yeldon - JAX
Anderson's Cat
Matt Forte RB - CHI
Donte Moncrief WR - IND
Shyftyy PTSTSL -
This trade has been accepted. The League Manager can STILL veto this trade.
Feel free to discuss Would be nice to see what and how people think football wise.

AC is looking to make a late push for the playoffs and Shyftyy is looking to solidify 3rd.

or maybe second behind JP :P
Both WRs have struggling QBs, so you don't know what you are trading but if both QBs retrieve form Thomas will score more points.
For RBs Forte when fit scores 15-20 points while Yeldon is closer to 10-15, so the trade seems fair, a bit risky for both teams but fair.

My reasoning as as follows:
I have Starks and Bernard who I think are good enough to start with Cobb as RB4. Although Andrews officially got the starter job for the Titans last time, he rewarded his team with rushing for a massive 8 yard so I think Cobb can still take that position in the last couple of weeks. That is good enough for back-up. Reality is I need a better receiver and Anderson can use a better RB.( I was thinking to go to you for Hopkins @Roman Bellic but I couldn't find a way to reach equal value. )
Even with Peyton performing like he has Demaytrius still had the most passes thrown to him. Even last week with Peyton's worst game with low yardage and 4 INT's he still got 7.90 points from 10 targets which were all team highs. If the new QB can find a rhythm, I believe Thomas to be the most prominent target. Yeldon will be RB1 for jacksonville again as soon as his boot comes off, as a matter of fact, the boot came off today so he may actually be active for today but RB3 in my team.
Moncrief is a decent receiver but for me the trade was always about Demaytrius.
All in all, a fair trade I think that gives me the receiver I (think I) need and Anderson's cat a good RB

What's the opinion here on short terms swaps?
A trade this week which benefits both team and reversed next week?
Is that considered fair?

Ooph, I don't like one week swaps because if you and another person decide to basically share teams and cover each other's bye weeks, its like you got two drafts and get to pick and choose from both. It's completely lopsided compared to the rest of the league which is unfair but there can be situations where it is okay. It's horribly thin ice.
Tbh, We'd not part with our top player even if the other team had a Bye position...but yes, I get your point and had similar opinions myself. Fair enough!
I have no idea what you were planning so I didn't mean to accuse anyone of anything. Just stating my opinion on short term trades. If you have something in mind that you can get past our commish then go for it
Nah, just a trade...that makes less sense the more I think of it. Forget it.
Jeremy Hill won't even start Jeremy Hill this week in his own fantasy league
http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/clubhouse?leagueId=690545&teamId=4&seasonId=2015
Probably the right decision too

ESPN looks so shit. Good thing AC and i lobbied for NFL.com
Yeah. This was a terrible year for "sure things".
Also, if you're in for a laugh (or sob) head over to the Draft recap and look at the picks.
2 starts with negative points at the moment. Our season is officially over.
I just came home and am may or may not be slightly inebriated. What's the best game?
Did you see that Lynch is inactive as well?
DeAndre Hopkins, my man. Giving a clutch performance, when the team needs it. *claps*
Two crucial matches went against us.
Rodgers vs Vikings Def
Rivers vs Chiefs Def
Dont think we can recover.

QB selection.
But it's cool. A little charity work for these .500 teams won't hurt.

Gronkowski vs Gostkowski with a 4-point deficit, could go either way... @JP77 will have a tight finish as well, Brady against Blount and Pats D.
Bold talk from the second luckiest team this year.
Anderson's Cat will be eliminated if he loses tonight.
