Who do you guys like better the rest of the year in a PPR league?

Patterson

Harvin

Cooks


I have too many TEs and I need a WR. I could get one or two of these players. My TEs are Julius Thomas, Gronk and Kelce. I can dump Gronk for one of Patterson or Harvin. I think I can trade a RB for Cooks as well. My WRs are Maclin, Terrance Williams and Kendall Wright. That is it. My RBs are Ball, Morris, Jennings, Joique Bell, Pierce and Ingram.

I think I am better off with Patterson since he has a cake schedule the rest of the year. I would love to get Cooks but I don't know if I can get him for unloading a guy like Morris.

I think you get Patterson and Harvin at all costs  
Saos1n : 9/21/2014 8:04 pm : link
Cooks as well if you can...
I don't want anyone from the Vikings  
kmed : 9/21/2014 8:05 pm : link
offense. I like Harvin and Cooks and I hate the idea of trading Gronk.

I don't think I can get Patterson and Harvin because they are on the same team and that would deplete the other team of their WRs. He also has Calvin Johnson.

I will try though.
My team exploded today.  
kmed : 9/21/2014 8:08 pm : link
It's crazy that I got ok games from brees and calvin and still exploded. Bernard is a beast. Jennings gets 90% of the touches. Cruz and mackin had big days. Loving my team right now.

I can afford to give up Gronk. This would be my starting lineup if I traded Gronk for Patterson or Harvin.

Romo/Cousins
Ball
Patterson
Maclin
Julius Thomas
Jennings
Joique/Morris/Ingram/Pierce/Kelce/Terrance Williams/Kendall Wright
I'm one player away.in PPR  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 9/21/2014 8:10 pm : link
and that player is QB. Tom Brady blows, but luckily he throws it to Edelman 90% of the time.

I also think that offense can perform better once Bridgewater gets some starts under his belt. He looked really good in the preseason.
Every week I HAVE to start  
robbieballs2003 : 9/21/2014 8:13 pm : link
either Terrance Williams or Kendall Wright along with Maclin. I like Maclin but he is inconsistent and I am worried about him lasting all year.
How about some more options  
robbieballs2003 : 9/21/2014 8:19 pm : link
Garcon

Roddy White

Michael Floyd

Antonio Brown

Jeffery

Crabtree

Nelson

Patterson

Harvin
Gronk will continue to have a bigger role.  
kmed : 9/21/2014 8:21 pm : link
I would not trade him now when his value is for the guys you mentioned. That's just be though, maybe you don't expect gronk to return to form like I do.

I think he can return to form. However, if he gets injured my season is shot. I need to flip a player for a WR or two players for two WRs. It isn't a matter of doing it or not as it is that I am doing it but I just want to make the right decision.
I'd just like to give a huge FUCK YOU  
dep026 : 9/21/2014 8:25 pm : link
TO Lesean McCoy. Draft a stud runner early. GTFO. McCoy, Peterson, Charles, Lacy, and to an extent Forte have all been DUDS!!!!!!
I believe the right decision is not  
kmed : 9/21/2014 8:26 pm : link
selling low on gronk. Id wait for a breakout week befire trading him.

Not Lynch. Cost $10 less in my auction league and so far has been lights out.

Time to sell high on Hopkins?

Demaryius Thomas hasn't done shit either. Murray is killing it as is Bernard. I'm sure everything will balance out.

Have you seen their offense? It is a mess right now. It is too risky. I get you would not do it but I am doing it. How would you rank those WRs?
Never agreed with people down on lynch. Dudes  
kmed : 9/21/2014 8:32 pm : link
an animal. I also Wouldn't cry about a guy like mccoy having a bad game or Charles getting hurt. Or AP abusing his kid(which has nothing to do with risks of drafting a rb). Never liked lacy personally and forte has been just fine.
Patterson  
Gmen in 2012 : 9/21/2014 9:08 pm : link
Has been a huge disappointment iso far. Aside from a touchdown on a handoff he's done squat in 3 games
My team exploded today  
nygiants16 : 9/21/2014 9:18 pm : link
140 points and i still lost...guy i played had 154....i would of beat anyone else this week...oh well life of fantasy
Gronk  
Rocky Thompson : 9/21/2014 9:38 pm : link

Dropped an easy 2nd TD today. Brady's off, wasn't his fault on Gronk's drop. He won't be all year.

Go get Lacy as cheap as you'll ever get him. 3 tough match ups so far, buy low. Same with Brees, get him if you can, Brees owners are likely 1-2 or 0-3 and desperate. If yer 3-0 Bree's has a favorable playoff schedule, drafting only gets you so far, plan ahead and adjust...
I am trying to trade for Jeffery  
robbieballs2003 : 9/21/2014 9:40 pm : link
The other owner is loaded at WR and only has Ebron. This works out for both of us. I am close to a trade of Morris for Antonio Brown. If I can complete both of these trades my team would look like this:

Romo
Cousins

Ball
Jennings
Joique
Pierce
Ingram

Jeffery
Brown
Maclin
Terrance Williams
Kendall Wright

Julius Thomas
Kelce

I think that is a really nice team. I need to play waivers and get another RB though.

I am going to lose because the Pitt kicker is on pace to kick 6 FGs. Didnt help he had Foles/Maclin when I had the fucking cheap ass bastard going for 22 yards on 20 carries.
The only Gronk stat that I care about....  
kmed : 9/21/2014 10:09 pm : link
Rob Gronkowski (knee) played on 42-of-73 snaps in Sunday's Week 3 win over the Raiders.
It's 57.5 percent, up from the 43.1 percent Gronkowski had played through the first two weeks. Remember that Gronk wasn't a full-time player last season until five games after coming back from forearm surgery. If anyone is selling, we're buying Gronk as he rounds into form.


He's def a guy I'm targetting in a trade. I'll try to grab him now before he blows up.
Agreed  
Rocky Thompson : 9/21/2014 10:22 pm : link

I made Gronk my 3rd rd pick in every league. Ray Rice hurt, Welker hasn't helped yet, Belichick screwing with us on Vereen? Maybe the shoulder? Bree's underachieving. Thank God for Niles Paul and Bobby Rainey. Got to hold on until players start producing...
Still think Patterson  
Mr. Nickels : 9/21/2014 10:53 pm : link
is going to explode eventually.

Can't wait to see him with Bridgewater..
Antonio Brown  
dep026 : 9/21/2014 10:57 pm : link
may have saved my butt. Down only 8 with bears defense and gould. He still have Suisham and I still have Brown.
Brown had to have a great game  
robbieballs2003 : 9/21/2014 11:05 pm : link
Therefore killing my potential deal of Morris for him. Damnit. Maybe I can sweeten the pot.

Gronk in rd 3 was dumb. We are now seeing why. If you are relying on Rsuney to keep you above water(I'm guessing your team sucks), you are going to be disappointed.
Need 11 points tonight  
dep026 : 9/22/2014 11:23 am : link
between the Bears defense and Gould. A pick 6 would be nice.
Awesome,  
kmed : 9/22/2014 11:24 am : link
thanks for letting everyone know. We will all be on the edge of our seats hoping you get it.
We needed a break  
dep026 : 9/22/2014 11:25 am : link
from your scintillating opinion of Gronkowski.
I just wish we can go back  
kmed : 9/22/2014 11:28 am : link
and re-read all of the fantasy conversations before the season. Has rocky been right about anything yet?
why can't you?  
YAJ2112 : 9/22/2014 11:29 am : link

Been loving LeVeon Bell  
AnotherGiantsFan : 9/22/2014 11:33 am : link
These past 3 weeks. He's been getting vultured some, but boy does he look good.

The Steelers should really involve Bell in the passing game more, and I'm not just saying that because I own him (Yes I am).

So far I've been dead wrong about Shane Vereen. Conspiracy Alert : Vereen is in a contract year and Belichick the GM is trying to diminish his value by having Belichick the coach giving him less snaps.

Sanders has been an absolute stud for me.
I never ever trust NE backs. Same with NO backs.  
kmed : 9/22/2014 11:37 am : link
Week to week, we have no idea who is going to get the lion share of the touches. Way too hit or miss for my taste.
One of the crazier things I've said  
AnotherGiantsFan : 9/22/2014 11:38 am : link
Is saying that I took Demarco Murray completely off my radar in the draft. It was never because I doubted his talent, but doubting his health. If he was available to me in the 2nd, passing over him would have been one of the easier decisions for me in the draft. He's making me look pretty silly right now.

Someone in my league went bold and took Murray/Julio back to back. Paying off big time. Lets see if that holds up.
So far, my team is beasting.  
kmed : 9/22/2014 11:39 am : link
Calvin in rd 1 looks good.
Brees has been somewhat disappointing in rd 2, but I'm not too concerned.
Bernard in rd 3 was a steal.
Cruz in rd 4 was ok. I expect him to continue to get better.
Jennings in rd 5 was a steal.
Vernon Davis in rd 6 wasn't a great pick.
Maclin in rd 7 was an awesome pick.
AGF,  
kmed : 9/22/2014 11:39 am : link
same here. Murray was off my radar for the same reason.

Maybe I should rephrase....

I wish someone else would go back and pull up the fantasy chats so we can all laugh at rocky who is most definitely in last place in his league.
Right after the draft I was debating whether I made the right choice  
AnotherGiantsFan : 9/22/2014 11:42 am : link
Taking Keenan Allen over VJax/Pierre Garcon. Looks like I should have went Garcon. Not giving up on Keenan yet though.
Yeah I was high on Allen myself.  
kmed : 9/22/2014 11:44 am : link
He's been disappointing so far, but I think he will pick it up.
Oh yeah  
AnotherGiantsFan : 9/22/2014 11:49 am : link
And I thought Eddie Lacy was going to set the world on fire. Not exactly the case. I did say that AP was going to have a down year and didn't think he should go top 5, but my reasons didn't include him beating his kids. So that's a wash.

Montee Ball has to be the most underwhelming high draft pick RBs in the entire league. So glad I stayed away from him.
How do you guys feel about Lorezno T(Don't feel like spelling his name  
AnotherGiantsFan : 9/22/2014 11:52 am : link
RB out of Balt? Is he worth putting a waiver in? I need all the RBs I can get.
Just got offered  
nygiants16 : 9/22/2014 12:51 pm : link
Ellington Chalers and sanders for Lynch Keenan allen and Donal Brown

Start 1 qb 2 rbs 3 wrs 1 te 1 k 1 defe... .5 ppr

I would then have:
Foles
jennings
Ellington/Charles
Dez
Sanders
hawkins
Donnel
Gould

do i stick with what i got or do i go for it?
Well, let's see  
Rocky Thompson : 9/22/2014 1:19 pm : link

I saved you from trading Calvin Johnson last week, you're welcome.

I told you Roddy White was a bigger injury risk than Reggie Wayne and you told me that was ridiculous because Roddy played 13 games last year even though 8 of them were as a decoy. Roddy's missed one game already.

I told you Peyton Manning, not Drew Bree's, Aaron Rodgers or Matthew Stafford was still the best fantasy QB.

I followed your advice on Shane Vereeni being a PPR monster because Stphan Ridley might not even make the 53 man roster and now Ridley is the feature back and Vereen is practically invisible.

You were right about Gio, even though Jeremy Hill is still a great bargain as a 9th rd pick but you haven't been right about much else.

Ya know, Fanduel allows head to head match ups weekly, why don't you drag your smelly and obnoxious self over to Fanduel and I'll kick yer ass for money this week?
Besides all of those funny jokes,  
kmed : 9/22/2014 1:22 pm : link
I was anti-Vereen in just about every thread.
You pretty much lied abotu everything you just wrote.  
kmed : 9/22/2014 1:23 pm : link
Should I assume you are in last place? I'm guessing you are, especially if you followed all your own advice.

First off,  
kmed : 9/22/2014 1:24 pm : link
when did I ever say Peyton wasn't the best fantasy QB? If you can find that, I'll give you $10MM.

Rocky Thompson : 9/22/2014 1:24 pm : link

The only lie is you were anti vereen.
