Christine Michael to the Pack, pick him up @mikey

Post by **mikey** » Thu Nov 17, 2016 4:06 pm

Ooh, I am on that where available. Thanks

Uhhhh this just happened

Traded L. Miller and DT for Crabtree, Bennett (I'm a Gronk owner), and R. Mathews. Admittedly I overpaid a bit but DT was riding my bench and I have GB and Carolina's backfield to mix and match in place of Miller.

Wake up today, the same guy I just did that trade for offers me David Johnsons and Allen Robinson for Spencer Ware and Terrel Pryor.

My first instinct was no until I realized DJ has as many points as those 2 combine. So I did that trade as well... Wtf I now have Brady, DJ, AJ Green, and the NE TE as my cornerstones in a 1pt PPR league.

I think overall I win this trade/s but weird series.

QB -Brady
RB -DJ
RB -GB/CAR RB
WR -AJ
WR -Crabtree
TE -NE TE
Flex - Robinson/Watkins (when back)/RB if I want

I dislike invoking veto power, as its intent is to maintain the integrity of the league - not to protect stupid GMs from themselves - but that seems like a tank deal on the surface if I ever saw one...I know Robinson has had a tough year, but trading David Johnson for that package is more than a little silly...

Your first instinct was 'no'?

I assumed i was reading a post from mimh when i got to that part. In a full ppr leavue robinson is still a weekly start.

Post by **mikey** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 9:46 am

There's too much talent involved for it to be mimh related...that was the only thing that tipped me off...it's one of the stranger posts in the thread though despite that...

if any of DJ, Zeke or Bell are involved in a trade, it's pretty suspicious at this point of the year. They're clearly the three most valuable by a large margin

Post by **Pavel Bure** » Fri Nov 18, 2016 7:11 pm

League vetoed it and I'm a bit salty because trades have been pushed through on an average of 5 hours. This one went through at 10pm last night and after a massive text chain was vetoed at 2pm today.

I'm not going to raise hell over FF but come on man this wasn't done with any other trades. Next year I'm going to say no commish pushing trades. It's 2 days, suck it if you don't like it.

Yeah obviously I realized just how silly that was.

****. AJ Green being carted off

Post by **MalkinIsMyHomeboy** » Sun Nov 20, 2016 3:50 pm

So I'm gonna make he playoffs in 2 of my leagues guaranteed, and in the third I just need the top two seeds to win next week and for me to win out and I'll sneak into the 6th seed

I'm freaking out man

Post by **Pavel Bure** » Sun Nov 20, 2016 7:56 pm

Well there goes any shot I had at winning this year.

Gronk - out
AJ Green - out

Trade for D. Johnson vetoed under nefarious conditions.

I'll stop whining about fake sports now.

Hahaha Prosise out several weeks at least, Rawls gifted the starting job

F*ck you @mikey!

Post by **mikey** » Sun Nov 20, 2016 9:14 pm

Yeah, I guess he needed it gifted to him...? Is that the point...?

I don't even hate Rawls, but I will actively root against him now...

No, just joking because of all the Rawls vs Michael convos from earlier

I am starting Boyd over TY Hilton this week. In fact, I actually benched Hilton in favor of Crabtree, Boyd, and Gurley in the flex. I just cannot trust Tolzien to feed Hilton like he should be fed. Am I overreacting? Crabtree is a Top 15 WR start this week per Fantasypros.

I know it's just projections, but it's depressing to start the week in Yahoo projected to lose by 20 points, considering how generally close those projections are (unlike ESPN). My opponent has Adaji vs. the 49ers league-worst rush defense...God help me.

I'm comfortably in 1st (200 points more than second place team, 300 more than 3rd place) and snagged Sammy Watkins off waivers in what hopefully can be a big couple of weeks for him. I wanna plan the parade route but fantasy football is a mysterious creature.

Post by **MalkinIsMyHomeboy** » Sun Nov 27, 2016 6:15 pm

I needed a win today to make the playoffs and well...I'm gonna put up my lowest total of the entire year

At least I'm gonna be the second and third seeds in my other two leagues

Post by **mac5155** » Sun Nov 27, 2016 9:43 pm

GD.

KC DST making it hard to win this week.

Seriously about to lose to a guy who is started Alfred Morris and marquise Goodwin.

Post by **shafnutz05** » Mon Nov 28, 2016 10:15 pm

I am 7.1 points ahead and facing Jordan Matthews. Was really happy when I thought he was out for the game, but he's back in. One TD puts me in a really bad position as I'm on the playoff bubble

Post by **mac5155** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 1:29 pm

Mariota bye week filler:

Joe Flacco
Carson Palmer
Ryan Tannehill
Alex Smith
Trevor Siemean
Sam Bradford

The only starting QBs available.

Post by **mikey** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 1:51 pm

Palmer, walk.

I didn't even look at schedules or matchups or anything. Unless he's playing Thursday night underwater, I can't imagine that this is even close to a choice...
