I just sent out several offers trying to move Chris Ivory and James White. Amazingly, I have too many useful RBs. I'm looking to downsize them and trade 2 for 1. I could also do a 3-for-2 where the additional players are non-RBs that retain my roster balance, if that would work better. It's hard to balance these offers and some were closer than others, but I was just trying to send out mass offers.

NFL.com only lets you have 5 active offers at a time so I had to cancel some, in order to send others. Please consider the email offer still of interest until I move those guys. If you liked it, just send me the offer. Thanks!

edit: I may also consider a 2-for-1 involving ((Ivory or White) and Markus Wheaton), for your RB.

in case anyone didn't notice pmchem desperately needs to do a 2 for 1 trade because otherwise he has to drop one anyway to pick up a kicker

so what i'm saying is you can basically insist that he throw in the other one for basically free instead of paying for it because pmchem will be dropping the other one anyway :v:

Whoever I may drop -- who was not in the initial wave of trade offers -- nobody would be guaranteed to get anyway because the player would go through waivers. You know this, so you know your argument is nonsense.

Much like your team, that I can defeat without a kicker anyway. I may do that just for 'kicks'.

I have obscene RB depth, and I'm amazed the Dion Lewis or Thomas Rawls owners have not contacted me regarding a trade. I'd be willing to move a bench RB for a WR.

14 teams and you gotta start 2 RB. RB's get injured more than WR. By midseason some people will be rolling out seriously terrible RBs, trust me.

Yeah the way this league is set up its not really worth paying for above waiver wire level rbs until you have your wrs and wr bench solid. Just one of 4wrs or ppt would get you close to there, both and you'd be crazy to give up even wr backups.

People are probably already starting terrible wrs.

Having went nearly undefeated in the league last year, designed the league settings, and played in a similar league for years, I feel pretty confident in my evaluation of positional depth. Even right now there are several WR/TE people you could pick up off the wire and start in a W/T flex. There are zero playable RBs on the wire right now. The depth just is not there.

When every goon has seemingly bought into the wr-1-2 philosophy this year, I like to collect good RBs. Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but I can't pass up the value.

Not that I'm in love with starting jordan matthews, mind you. Ugh.

As the Rawls owner, I've decided to wait a week or so before freaking out and panic trading. It'll probably happen, though.

Also, next year, maybe we don't draft so early?

I was hoping Weasel would make more of a game of this so that Bennett's points made the winning margin, but man, no-show so far.

Deangelo Williams made that waaay closer than it should've been. Cheer up, though, you'll have the highest losing score this week, and at least you're not Jed York Super Dork!

My two keepers combined for 11.4 points. If I'd started Chris Thompson, he'd have outscored Todd Gurley and Brandon Marshall combined.

on the other hand,

As a Washington fan, I couldn't appreciate it last night, but $67 was such a steal for Antonio Brown. :getin:
