On a different note,

AJ Green and Cam Newton are on the market if anyone is interested. I'm in the market for a running back.

My team is so decimated it's not even funny. I have to make a last ditch effort here....

Anyone on my team is for Trade, but i'm focusing on an RB.

Even AJ Green is available.

You have the luck of playing me on when (almost) all my RBs are on bye (and after AP was traded away), so I'm betting you win this week.

Another week, another couple dead quarterbacks.

If you aren't willing to scour the waiver wire for the scraps I still have 3 capable QB's in Cam/Stafford/Rivers

Any of the 3 are available, the only thing I do not need is a tight end.

You never take that for granted because a kicker or a defense could go nuts and get you 25+ points each. I've seen it happen too many times.

I'll have the same issue whenever the Steelers have their bye.

If you really need an RB, I'll be glad to trade you the New England Patriots star RB Mike Gillislee for any rookie RBs you have on your bench. ;)

My studs and duds plan didn't really survive my two stud RB's being a dead David Johnson and an under performing Ajayi. Doesn't help that my Michaels (Thomas and Crabtree) have straight up been taking games off. Icing on the cake is that my QB streaming has been generally a disaster this year. Hard to see making a playoff run at 2-5 but we will see!

But as a DJ owner in another league, you live by your studs, you die by your studs. 2-5 and pretty much dead in that one.

Lev Bell and Antonio on the same team shouldn't work but gently caress me if every week 1 or the other hasn't gone off for 25+. Its the risk you take though, yeah. My other auction league I went studs and duds too, but my studs were Antonio Brown, Zeke, Gordon and Gronk, and things are very different.

Its amazing how much hitting on one or two of your non-studs can really help.

As a Saints fan and a fantasy football fan, I'm really happy they're starting to use Mark Ingram a hell of a lot more. :)

The last few years have been so loving odd. Ingram has been an obvious 3 down stud and Payton has done everything in his power to not embrace that reality. Ingram must have insulted his wife or something.

The draft was in August like the day after the 6 game suspension and people were just crazy down on him. I got AB for like 61 since he was the first player up and I feel like the first superstar always goes for less than the next few. Gronk I think I just timed right with all of the people willing to spend on a TE getting one before he came up. I wanna say AB was 61, Zeke 45, Gordon 40 and Gronk 18.

Yeah, didn't you have like $20-$30 leftover at the end of the auction this year? Given how rarely the last few picks that cost between $2-$5 pan out, you're better off spending on at least 1-2 higher cost players to ensure you get some solid talent, and if you end up overspending, well, having $1 for your last 3 players isn't the end of the world.

Good regular season. I'm gonna lock the non-playoff teams and ship Silly Burrito his 20% for best record. PM me your paypal or Wallet address please Silly Burrito.

At one point I was 0-4 and wondering if I was going to win a game this season, so 3rd place seems pretty good to me!
