Just traded LeVeon Bell for Harry Douglas

[SFNL]

Not sure how this will work out but I felt I had to do something...

Got Andre Brown coming back next week (Charles' bye) so my RB situation will be
Charles
Ellington
Brown

Was looking ahead to AJ Green's bye in week 12 (and Dalton also) WR situation now
AJ
Marshall
Douglas
Stevie Johnson
Heath/Hartline/Finley

Going forward, I traded Ben for Schaub because with 3 weeks no stats I can drop Schaub and pick up a good matchup QB for Dalton's bye week. If Finley doesn't go on IR (which I was hoping for) I have to hope that Crabtree goes undetected for 2 more weeks before I can get him.

This may work out really well or could cost me bigtime.. I've been scoring mad points all year but have been getting screwed with who I've played against. I'm still in the playoff picture at 3-4-1 but have a tough SOS coming up.

I wish I could trade Harry Douglas for Le'Veon Bell...oh wait, I don't have Harry Douglas.

Seriously, you have like a strange scoring system, right? I'm wondering how this affects you...

 

[SFNL]

Yeah... Very strange for most. Unless a RB scores a TD he needs either 20 carries or 100 yds for 3 pts each. WR's get 4 for tds, 3 for 7 receptions & 3 for 100 yds. There is a bonus structure for additional carries/receptions/yards

I see Douglas as having a much bigger upside than Bell going forward. I don't think Bell will see 20 carries or 100 yds so his max points per week Im assuming will be 6 & I'm thinking Andre Brown will be just about the same, maybe more if the GMen get hot. Douglas gives me 4 legit #1 receivers to start any given week.

You can either start 2RB-4WR or 3RB-3WR. I didn't like the idea of having to pick between Ellington & Bell each week when I figured I could give myself 4 solid WR options and not have to second guess my lineup.

That sounds like fun, and I wish you good luck. The only thing with Bell is I could maybe see him getting 20 carries, and he looks like the TD guy for the Steelers, but who knows? In any event, I hope you're right about Andre.

LOL @ me not realizing this week was Ellington's bye

Gotta roll with Ogbannaya this week now.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

in that format, I could see Oggie getting you 0 pts - how many pts does he have on the season so far?

But, looking the waiver wire over in all of my leagues, he's still on of the best RB options out there, hahaha

Grab Tolbert if available he has been scoring weekly..

 

[Chef99]

Grab Tolbert if available he has been scoring weekly..

Or Shonn Greene...total hit or miss, but it wouldn't be surprising if he vultured a TD.

I'm thinking you might prefer Fozzy Whitaker...
