2012 Fantasy Football Advice Thread

Anybody have any thoughts on my team?

Ppr league, 14 teams. It was auction draft with everyone starting out with $200 and happened about 2 weeks ago. Qb, 2 wr, 2 rbs, 1 rb/wr, 1 te,  1 d, 1 k.

Highest dollar amount at important positions:
Brees-$72
McCoy-$68
Gronk-$49
Calvin Johnson-$60.

My team:
Cam Newton-$52
MJD-$56
Steven Ridley-$12
Demarco murray-$36
Jeremy maclin-$23
Randy Moss -$9
Greg Olsen-$1
Eagles-$1
Dan Bailey-$1

Well, you had some cause to celebrate, and some cause to cry yesterday, huh?

As a fellow Newton owner, I share your pain. At least you got the good news from Randy Moss (is it possible for a WR to be a TD Vulture?), MJD, and Demarco.

Are you trying to get Sproles or trying to move him?

I've got Turner, Reggie Bush, Green-Ellis, and Ridley in this league as RBs. Wondering whether I can get Sproles somehow, and how much to offer.

Return yardage also factors into scoring for this league.

We start two RBs, and 3 WRs. I'm deep at WR, with Megatron, Andre Johnson, Roddy White, DeSean Jackson, and Sidney Rice (pending drop for Cobb).

Yeah im going to win my matchup this week unless ravens kicker gets 20 points.

Its tough with so many teams most teams are very top heavy and being everyones first time doing auction draft prob didn't help that.

There is pretty much no one on waiver wire transfer and to get anyone from waivers you need to bid on blindly and top bidder gets the free agent. You get a $100 for the year.

I have cobb on my bench and I have a bid in for ogletree.  Otherwise I have locker as my back up qb and that's about it.

Would like to snag jermichael finley away from my buddy but not sure who I could part with or who he'd take.

And yes if I have a chance at taking the league I need Newton to step it up big time

PPR Keeper league:

Should I try to do the following trade:

Victor Cruz, Michael Crabtree for Larry Fitzgerald and Wes Welker

Cruz is a keeper for me (he'll only cost a 7th rounder to keep next year), and I was thinking about letting him go for Fitz only, but then Welker had his craptastic day while Cruz and Crabtree produced, and beyond that, had the targets to warrant keeping them around.

I'd do that. My anti-Giants policy aside, Fitz and Welker are pretty sure bets for a PPR league.

Wondering if Reggie and DeSean might do it. Unless I should keep Reggie over Turner?

His WRs: Fitz, Cruz, Jordy, Maclin, DeMaryius Thomas.

Yeah I don't see his angle there at all. And you should keep Reggie over Turner, I'm convinced that Turner's workload is going to decrease every week, and IINM (I made that up just now, see how it flies) Daniel Thomas just got hurt in Miami, which should only increase Reggie's workload.

In my PPR league, ol Reg just put up a solid 15 points because Tannehill is just the worst QB in the NFL who doesn't play for the Buffalo Bills (HAHAHHAHAHAHA! (SCREW) YOU, BILLS FANS! HAHAHAHA!!!!! FRED JACKSON! HAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!), so he's kinda just tossing Reggie the ball as often as not.

Keep Reggie. If he stays healthy, he should easily eclipse Turner's decreasing numbers.

So I'm 0 for the thread so far, but I'm thinking while Welker's numbers might dip this season he's still going to be looking at about 100 receptions this season. And Larry Fitzgerald is going to get his numbers w/ any QB.

I feel like they're the safer bet here.

Well I lost my first matchup

Stafford 14 pts
Jennings 3 pts
Colsten  5 pts
Harvin   10 pts
Mccoy    11 pts
Sproles  11 pts
Pettigrew 7 pts

Hanson 9 pts
NE Def  16 pts

Bench
BJGE 15 pts
Ryan Matthew DNP
Meachem 4 pts
David Wilson -2 pts
Santana Moss 4 pts

Im dropping Wilson and picking Up James Jones since Jennings is apparently hurt but im in a little bit of panic mode already.  Do I try to shake things up or stay the course.  My WR's really let me down this week.

Ppr league just got offered Reggie Wayne for Demarco Murray.

My initial reaction is no. I like ny team and think its top 3 in my league. Im weak at WR and the guy offering is weak at RB but stacked at receiver (Wayne is on his bench). I don't have much of a bench anyway but I just don't trust Wayne either staying healthy or producing like a top receiver. Im thinking of staying the course for now.

Thoughts?
