NGT: Fantasy Football trade advice

Eli2Plax1017 : 10/15/2014 8:53 am
Someone is offering me Peyton Manning and Alfred Morris for DeMarco Murray

RB points are normal

QB points are 1 point for 25 yards and 4 points for every TD

tough to give up DeMarco, HELP
Rb's are at an all time high  
sshin05 : 10/15/2014 9:07 am : link
You can get a kings ransom for Murray
i have peyton in my league  
Gordo : 10/15/2014 9:09 am : link
one thing about peyton is ,consistency.. you can always expect the same amount of points every week, and thats huge in FF.

With Murray, yes he is having a great year, he is on pace for something like 406 carries this year, he is due for an injury, he won't last the full season, so if you are solely dependant on murray, and have nothing around him, i would hesitate, but if you have another couple of good-great players, i would jump all over that, murray's stock his really high, now is the time to sell, what if he blows an ankle this weekend?
another thought  
Gordo : 10/15/2014 9:15 am : link
have them throw in another fringe player that has some value, like a decent kicker or defense.. something that is an after thought but really sweetens the deal
Think it's important to know  
knicks3031 : 10/15/2014 9:22 am : link
who your current QB is
Need more info..  
kmed : 10/15/2014 9:22 am : link
Specifically your roster and starting requirements
QBs: Ben and Flacco  
Eli2Plax1017 : 10/15/2014 9:23 am : link
my other RB is Marshawn Lynch

WRs Emmanuel Sanders and Crabtree
Need full roster  
kmed : 10/15/2014 9:25 am : link
and what starting positions including bench spots
I would definitely do that trade  
knicks3031 : 10/15/2014 9:25 am : link
.
I guess you aren't going to give the info....  
kmed : 10/15/2014 9:51 am : link
So my easy suggestion would be to ask rocky his opinion and do the opposite.
Ya know kmed  
Rocky Thompson : 10/15/2014 9:55 am : link

If you need my help you could just ask for it.

I'll get you a Bat Signal so none if the other guys will know...

Anyone else in Yahoo leagues have their waiver claims not go through?

It wasn't just mine, no claims in the league went through and still look like they're pending. Usually early Wednesday mornings (like 5 am) they all go through but none of them did today and everything's still sitting there.
Are the players FA's arc  
kmed : 10/15/2014 10:15 am : link
or still on waivers?
Mine went through at 7:17am  
Rocky Thompson : 10/15/2014 10:24 am : link

But people were picking up free agents not pending a waiver pick at 5:05am.
.  
arcarsenal : 10/15/2014 10:32 am : link
It looks like all of the guys who had claims put in still have W (10/15) designations.. every other player is a FA.

Like, I put in a claim for Andre Holmes and the Cleveland D/ST so those still have waiver designations on them and they're still listed as pending moves on my roster page
Looks the same in my league.  
kmed : 10/15/2014 10:38 am : link
Probably a technical difficulty that will go through at some pt.
.  
arcarsenal : 10/15/2014 10:55 am : link
Looks like they went through.

I got Holmes and CLE

Do I start Holmes as my WR3 vs ARI or OBJ vs DAL?

I am going OBJ over Allen this week...i have Sanu and Roddy White as my other wrs...I think Giants look to get OBJ going early and are really going to feature him in the offense...with Cruz out i think he bcomes the number 1 over Randle...

QBs: Ben and Flacco  
Eli2Plax1017 : 10/15/2014 11:11 am : link
RBs: marshawn and DeMarco
Flex - Andre Williams
WR: Crabtree and Emmanuel
TE - Heath Miller/Kyle Rudolph
DST - Pats
K- Matt Bryant

Bench - Bowe, Jordan Matthews, Gehrhart, Royal
Guy in my league  
pjcas18 : 10/15/2014 11:15 am : link
is starting Kirk Cousins at QB, would you trade Tony Romo (Russell Wilson is my other QB) for Branden Oliver?
you can probably do better than Oliver  
UConn4523 : 10/15/2014 11:20 am : link
unless you think Mathews will be out longer. Once he's back its a true split backfield, probably more like 60/40 or stronger in favor of Mathews.

I don't necessarily agree. Oliver has looked amazing. He will get Woodheads role plus some of Mathews pre injury. I really like Oliver.
If it is a PPR league, I would try to flip Murray for an elite WR  
jlukes : 10/15/2014 11:21 am : link
.
I would think so too  
UConn4523 : 10/15/2014 11:26 am : link
but when it comes to protecting Rivers I don't see them just bailing on Mathews unless he starts costing them games.

So while the skill is easily in favor of Oliver, i'm not so sure that will win out. If you think it does, then pull the trigger on that trade, i can definitely be wrong.

The targets will definitely be there, I am just a bit concerned after last week that the line won't hold up enough to keep getting him the ball. Holmes isn't exactly proven either, so.. it's a toss up. I want to use OBJ I just feel like maybe I'm letting my Giants fandom dictate it too much.
I'd be inclined to take Peyton and Morris for Murray  
Milton : 10/15/2014 11:34 am : link
Of the three, Murray is the most likely to miss time with an injury and Peyton is the most likely to consistently give a premium return.

Ok, so I ammend

my trade to:

I send Tony Romo and Andre Williams

I get
Branden Oliver and AJ Green

No ppr

my team is currently:

Russell Wilson/tony romo
Foster, tate, bradshaw, sankey, willaims
antonio brown, randall cobb, michael floyd,
jordan reed/donnell

green is hurt and obviously not playing.

I'll pick up a backup QB, but Wilson had his bye.

This is a team where I lost Peterson
