I've officially had enough of Tom Brady as my starter.

I gave him plenty of chances but I'm done.

I put out some feelers for trades, I have both Kelce and Cameron as tight ends so I'm hoping to package someone like Cameron and Wright for someones backup qb. (russell wilson, kaepernick)

I also signed drew stanton because I think he will put up good numbers this week.


I could also sign either Bridgewater or Bortles, or even Dalton.

anyone has to be better than brady at this point.


advice? think i should just hedge my bets on one of those rookies?

Nickels, where did you seeing that regarding Moreno?  
kmed : 10/1/2014 9:43 pm : link
I too am a miller owner which would be great, but I'm not seeing it.
Would you start...

Vereen v. CIN or McKinnon v. GB?

Vereen.

Too much uncertainty with McKinnon right now.

New Player Note Wed, Oct 1
Knowshon Moreno (elbow) said he's four weeks away from returning.
Advice: "I probably got like four more weeks," Moreno said. "About four more weeks and I'll be good." The Dolphins were hoping to have Moreno back in Week 6 when they come out of their bye. He's now targeting Week 8 against Jacksonville for his return. Lamar Miller will continue to be Miami's lead back for at least the next three games, with Daniel Thomas and Damien Williams backing him up.

I hate to say McKinnon, but you never know how many touches he'll get, but Vereen is even worse with the touches and Cinci D is tough.

I'd prob go McKinnon, but wouldn't consider it a strong start.
If McKinnon is cleared to play...  
EricJ (formerly Tyleraimee) : 10/1/2014 10:35 pm : link
and he is healthy. That guy will end up getting the most touches.
GB's run D  
Rocky Thompson : 10/1/2014 11:06 pm : link

Has been good until last week. Gonna be iffy weather, hostile environment for Bridewater ( if he plays) this ain't Atlanta he's seeing. McKinnon is a reach but I believe he's a better play than Asiata. If there ever was a sell high guy, Asiata is the man.

Vereen, who knows, nobody knows, it's Belichick with a screwed up offense. Cincy's D is arguably the best (Seattle at home but overall, Cincy looks good) Burfict back this week? Gonna be a tough day for Tom Terrific again. Only guy I'd trust is Gronk this week for NE against Cincy.

Draft position dictates Vereen, logic dictates McKinnon. Flip a coin or maybe pick up Antone Smith for garbage time against the Jints?
The clock is going to strike midnight on Asiata soon.

McKinnon is just better.

Thankfully I got him in one of my leagues and I am starting him tomorrow night.. kind of out of necessity but I like the matchup. I'm still kicking myself for dropping him in my main league last week. I seriously do not know what I was thinking. Oy..
Thing that makes Asiata viable  
Rocky Thompson : 10/1/2014 11:15 pm : link

Is he's included in the passing game. Why more than Cordarelle is a mystery. I like Norv Turner as an OC though, he's gotta be finding another god after AP. Best of luck if Ponder's starting though...
Should I

drop Rueben Randle for Eddie Royal to start at flex or stick with Randle
I picked up Royal last week  
Rocky Thompson : 10/1/2014 11:58 pm : link

Because of his targets and he paid off, Randle will probably see less targets when OBJ gets acclimated. This week, however, you have to start every Giant available against Atlanta. I know, I know, looks too easy but you gotta play the match ups on anybody drafted lower than the fifth rd, right?

Royal long term, Randle this week would be my guess. I don't own Randle though...

Atlanta is vulnerable on the ground more than the air. And it looks like Beckham debuts this week..

Royal is playing the Jets ranked last against the pass. Chargers have no run game so they will be forced to throw. Malcom Floyd is questionable leaving Keenan Allen Gates and Royal. If Jets focus on Allen as they should Royal should have a field day. Plus they use Royal on short passes in lieu of the run.

Both guys get a lot of targets though.

I see Royal more as a flash in the pan and like Randle more long term myself though. Royal is on a hot streak and the Jets it should continue..
