Need help!!! Worst fantasy team ever :(

[darkhat]

Really could be MUCH worse shari..

Maybe dump eli if you can and just start ben.. hate fukkin eli.

[LT Profits]

Don't trade starters, your starting lineup is great, As for your bench, see if you can upgrade Roethlisberger (DeCastro injury hurts Ben's numbers) and Green-Ellis (severely overrated). Also get rid of Gresham, no need for three tight ends (and Cook is the better of your two backups).

Are you insane. Eli has been a fantasy stud for a couple of years, Ben is just the opposite, he is actually a better QB than his numbers.

[Footballtime]

Jordy nelson is a player you play only when he is at home.............Look at his home versus road stats................... Unreal difference......... Not a bad team wish you the best of luck

[DMAVS]

Cam newton.. I did a draft last night and he was 4 overall

[stevek173]

Yeah she's a big Panthers fan man and not a huge football fan. I told her Smith is hobbling but she wanted Cam anyway and she got him 5th

[convick]

Looks good. Only recommendation is to get rid of Gresham or Cook for a RB. Not sure who'd be available, maybe David Wilson, Ryan Williams or Mark Ingram.

[BigDeem5]

Trade Julio Jones.

I'd be shocked if any 3 of these are available, but nice adds if they are.

[stevek173]

I am in this league and keeping an eye on this thread. Any suggestions that come from it I will acquire before Shari if they are of use to me.

Love you Shari but it's a poster eat mod world. Smooches.

Thanks boys.

[HotStreak]

Definitely don't carry 3 TE's that are all middle of the road guys. Witten may not play the opening game he is recovering from a lacerated spleen. Jared Cook has the most upside and Witten will likely be your starter barring injury. I would drop Gresham and try to add Rb depth as suggested. If nothing looked good in the RB pool I would consider adding a guy like Randall Cobb or Jonathan Baldwin who may do well on their own, but certainly would take off should Nelson or Bowe get injured. Not excirted about Heyward Bey as WR depth.

Team is solid though. No worries. Good luck!

[ttwarrior1]

your team is just fine, it would of been a big mistake to take brady over foster. Managing your team during the season during the bye weeks and getting free agents will be the key.
In most league u would of never gotten foster and then julio on the way back

[LT Profits]

Trade Julio Jones.

Um,,,No. I now have Jones SECOND on my board behind only Calvin

[onlooker]

Good team Shari. Should contend. Good that you got B.Tate to handcuff A.Foster.

Make sure you keep alert on J.Witten and M.Lynch for week 1. They both are in danger of sitting the week out.

No need to carry 3 TE's. J.Witten, when healthy is your stud. Pick between J.Gresham and J.Cook to start week 1, and for J.Witten's BYE fill in. The other drop and find the best possible RB/WR on Waivers/FA List. Once you get past week 5 (J.Witten's BYE) drop the other TE, and again, get the best possible RB/WR off Waivers/FA List. All depending on J.Witten's health.

Good luck.

Shari, that is a great team. Solid not Great QB. WR core is awesome. Julio Jones is my 2nd overall WR going into the year. RB's are solid solid. TE is fine, as cook will be solid until Witten is healthy.

This is a playoff team in my opinion.

[ChalkyDog]

I don't understand how you can form any negative on Green-Ellis at this point. The only angle is he plays in a very tough division - but there isn't anyone taking his touches.

He wasn't overworked in NE or anywhere else - he has a ton of tred left.

[tatommack]

I think you have a great team the only position I don't care for is you're qb. Oh you're bench blows

[Goat Milk]

shari i think it may be tough to win week 1. it will fall on your rbs where you clearly have the advantage. bowe is a receiver that will probably be guarded by asante and grimes 2 of the top 10 cbs in the nfl. Bowe is great but Cassel blows. Hopefully he scores. Jordy Nelson will be solid but not great. Julio Jones will have a huge year imo.

Jared Cook is a good sleeper. I have him too. Very athletic. I have witten too in my league. Not sure if he's playing, but I may start Cook against NE D which usually struggles against TEs.

Whoever said Eli is better than Newton (in terms of fantasy)

ship me some of what your smokin.

[darrell74]

Shari, you're fine.
Just look out for injuries and some hot free agents down the road.
No need for panic

[Balco10]

Must of been a 8 team league and why have 3 TEs...they should not be drafted until after the 8th round.

[shari91]

It's 10 teams. I started to grab TE's because I remembered last yr when I told ttwarrior I was surprised I was able to grab Brady in the 1st round when I was picking like 7th he said that people usually try to load up in another position. I thought he said TE's but after reading all of the comments in here it was obv something else. Like I said, this is only my 2nd time ever doing this but I'm super competitive so it looks like I'm going to have to do a bit of wheeling and dealing to fix my bench. I don't mind losing but I at least want to go down with a fight

[ChalkyDog]

Your bench can be made off waivers, and most often should and will be. Just be quick to pull the trigger on a guy who had a solid week.

Championships aren't won or lost on draft day - it's won on the waiver wire.

[darrell74]

In week 8 BJGE and Aryan will be on bye
don't panic now
something might happen from now until week #7
Don't pull the trigger on a trade, they're both good running backs

Giants are a good defense, 6 out of the first 8 weeks, they play shitty offenses

People are high on Julio
Jordy will get a lot of looks from Aaron Rodgers

[Dux90]

I think your starting roster is good, some of the other ones that have been in the fantasy forum I have seen are not good at all. I would also take Eli over Cam any day. Eli not doing the whole forcing things which has always got him in trouble with picks. I think you will do just fine Shari. Best of luck

[LT Profits]

The point is he simply isn't very good and never was. He was a nice fit in Pats' system but he is not an every-down go-to guy. I mean even scoring all those TDs he averaged only something like 3.7 YPC.

[shari91]

Ok, I got David Williams and got rid of Gresham. Strangely enough Steve's fiancee picked up Ingram the day after you posted this. I wonder how that happened STEVE?????

Do I take a chance that Lynch plays? I have to get my team entirely sorted for the weekend before the Giants game right?

[TxAaron]

You can swap out a player at anytime before their game starts. The only players that will be locked in tonight are Dal/NYG.

I would sit Lynch this week, even if he does play, his carries will be limited. Robert Turbin is worth picking up as a plug in for Lynch since Pete Carroll is going to throw him in the mix for the majority of the carries.

Overall, good draft. You RB's are really strong. Julio Jones will be a beast.

If you dont start Lynch the only other good option this week would be Green-Ellis. He's playing against Baltimore, not sure I like that match up. Just keep an eye on Lynch's status. I really think he should be ready to go and with the rookie QB starting for Seattle Im sure the Seattle backs will get a good number of touches. Even if Lnych plays and gets limited touches I would prefer him over Green-Ellis this week.

[Chi_archie]

yeah you aren't locked in, until all the games are done, or a player that you have on your roster is done anyways.

Shari I'll trade you TE Fred Davis and WR Lance Moore for Ben Jarvus Green-Ellis and Darius Heywood Bey

[TheMoneyShot]

Shari... a steal for wide receiver is going to be Titus Young WR DET

This will be a breakout year for him. Excellent slot receiver. Pick him up for a $1.00

I'll have to run this by managers but since I just ditched a TE I don't think I need another one.

He's gone.

[Chi_archie]

[Goat Milk]

look out for cook archie. all basketball players are more athletic than football
