J.Charles, A.Peterson, and others will not be playing for a while. RB's are at a premium , do you have your's already.
Some are scrambling to find starters. Do you have a sleeper ?
How's your defence/special teams doing ? When are your bye weeks and will you be ready ?
This thread is here to discuss trades as well as those duds that zeroed out on you . [boxing]

I'm the League Manager of a Fantasy Football League. We are in our second season. I had to replace some owners from the first season due to their poor management. This season is already more competitive and we went international as well. We have members from California to Austria/Germany . Some leagues play involve fees and money prizes, we don't. We play for the fun and the bragging rights. The League Manager position is not too difficult, but the preparation and start of each season requires some work. [grin1]

We never really know how our players will perform from week to week. The best we can do is field the best starters we can. Sometimes we get lucky and sometimes we get the egg. Who could have predicted that NO's Marques Colston would not score any fantasy points in week 2 or that a player would go down to an injury. We draft and hit the weekly wavers for better players. There are no guarantees that even if you field a great team, that a player on your opposition's team won't have a career game . I like playing fantasy football because it get's me more involved in what other teams and their players are doing. IT'S FUN DAMMIT !! 🖐

The thing I find most frustrating about fantasy football is the players who are "game day decisions" as to whether or not they will play. I can read and infer all I want and still be wrong. The HC can wait and announce his decision 1 hour before kick off. That is too late for me as I leave the house around 10 am. Some of the time the coach knows a couple of days before that the player won't be able to play. I think the other team has better sources than we do and they already know the guy won't play. Coaches wait to make the announcement just to tick us fantasy players off.

This week I am not waiting. I benched Gore and Jeffery already. They may have big games but I just don't want to see another 0 for players like I did last year a few times.

You just never know who is going to be your savior and/or your big mistake. You expect your star to shine, then he doesn't. You expect a reg. player to put up their norm and they have a career day ! You put in a guy from your bench who has done well the previous 2 weeks and he lays you an egg. Sometimes that crystal ball just won't work. [wtf]
