    started 1-7 in my fantasy league

    16 team league, we have a 16 game regular season (3 doubleheader weeks)... I started 1-7, and was in dead last with lowest point total in the league. I made a shitton of trades, and I went 7-1 the last 8 games to finish 8-8 and get a wildcard (8 teams make playoffs, I was the 7 seed). Beat the 2nd highest scoring team in the league this week in round one of the playoffs and now have a shot at the Super Bowl. I play the highest scoring team in the league this week, a team I already beat a few weeks back.

    My current starting lineup:

    QB Ben Rothlisberger
    RB Vereen or Mason
    WR Dez Bryant
    WR Alshon Jeffery
    WR DeAndre Hopkins
    WR Mike Evans
    K Dan Carpenter
    D Seattle Seahawks

    My drafted lineup:

    QB Alex Smith
    RB Jamaal Charles
    RB Rashad Jennings
    RB Joique Bell
    WR Keenan Allen
    WR TY Hilton
    K Dan Carpenter
    D NY Jets

    Wish me luck,

    Super Bowl champ gets:

    $2500
    a jersey from anyone on my roster
    next year's $500 entry fee paid for in advance

    Here's my bench:
    RB Shane Vereen or Tre Mason (whoever I dont start)
    TE Coby Fleener
    TE Dwayne Allen
    RB Davonte Freeman
    RB Ray Rice
    WR Randy Moss
    WR Terrell Owens
    TE Tony Gonzalez

    dead serious, I actually dropped Andre Williams last week for Randy Moss. I have this thing where I drop anyone I will never use (or think Id never use), and pick up any free agent past-fantasy stud. Its for moral support... I get a kick out of it, lol

    you go Mason (ARI) or Vereen (MIA) this week?

    heres a list of my trades:

    week 3:
    RB Jamaal Charles/WR Kenny Stills for RB Lamar Miller/TE Jason Witten
    QB Alex Smith/RB Carlos Hyde for QB Jake Locker/TE Dwayne Allen
    RB Steven Ridley/TE Jason Witten for WR Cordarelle Patterson
    picked up WR Allen Robinson

    week 4:
    RB Rashad Jennings/WR Eric Decker for WR Alshon Jeffery/RB Bishop Sankey
    QB Ryan Fitzpatrick/WR Allen Robinson for QB Ben Rothlisberger/WR Kembrell Tompkins

    week 5:
    RB Joique Bell for WR Mike Evans

    week 7:
    RB Bishop Sankey for WR Kendall Wright
    D Redskins/WR Josh Gordon/WR Keenan Allen/$8 blind bidding money for RB Frank Gore/RB Darren Sproles/D Seahawks/
    QB Jake Locker/WR TY Hilton/RB Darrin Reaves for QB Carson Palmer/RB Shane Vereen/WR Allen Robinson
    RB Frank Gore/RB Darren Spoles for WR DeAndre Hopkins
    picked up RB Tre Mason

    week 8:
    RB Lamar Miller/WR Kendall Wright/WR Allen Robinson for WR Dez Bryant

    Starting week 8 Ive hit at least 110 points every week and am averaging 125 points a game in this time... goal is to always hit 100, 110 is solid, and 120 you win a lot more than you lose.

    I kind of agree with you... Im gonna follow Vereen's injury status. He was limited in practice all last week, and when thats the case, Belichik usually goes with his other options at RB. If Vereen practices fully all week, Im going with him
