Andre Brown on WW - who to drop?

[SmokingMonkey]

I feel like I have stacked my team nicely, but I also am agreeing with most out there that once Brown comes back after the bye (hopefully) he will be getting a lot of touches against some weaker opponents.

both leagues are 10tm PPR:

1) Ellington, Stacy, Ben Tate, Terrance Williams

I'd prefer to drop one of the RBs since I chose T Will over Brown in the first place on waiver claims, although I didn't realize that Brown was even out there.
Rest of RBs/WRs: Megatron, Marshall, Hilton, Allen, Douglas, Harvin, Charles, Sproles, Bernard

2) Mike Wallace, Alshon Jeffery

I've been stock piling WRs in this league since we have to start 3, possible to start 4 with the flex.
Rest of RBs/WRs: Megatron, AntonioB, Allen, Boykin, Roddy, Alf Morris, DMC, DeMarco Murray, Bernard

Let me know if you guys think Andre Brown would be worth the pick up in those leagues

I would drop Ellington since Foster is dinged up. Even if Ellington were the feature back, any AZ RB would be difficult to start in most leagues.

Heh, funny you mention that. I dropped Mendenhall for Brown today.

anyone for league 2?

 

[richig07]

Clearly you play in either an 8 team league, or a very inactive 10 team league.

So the answer... is who gives a shit?


... but Ellington.

 

[tlance]

I would have a hard time dropping Wallace or Jeffrey, but your WRs look pretty good.

I think Boykin might actually be on the same level as those 2 moving forward. What will his role be when Jones returns?

Why so condescending? Monkey is one of the most respected posters here.

exactly, if you don't have anything respectful to say, don't.

I wasn't high on Hillis, and I'm still not high on Hillis, but I think he may do enough (especially in the passing game) that with Wilson coming back too it may not be a sure thing that any of the three are a great fantasy value.

That said, I'd drop Ellington.

But I'd probably drop him for Vereen or Crabtree.

In the other league I'd probably stand pat.

(It is weird to see Charles, Megatron and Marshall on the same team in a 10-team PPR. Trying to remember how you got them.)

You must not be doing very well in the league.

In that league I traded CJ0K and VJax for Megatron, right before Megatron went on that 2 game disappearing act. When I first made the trade, everyone else was super pissed, then VJax - Glennon connection was born, and CJ0K has been alright the past 3 weeks and they eased up.

Might not be exact, but I believe my draft went something like this(5th overall):
1 - Charles
2 - Marshall
3 - CJ0K
4 - VJax
5 - Sproles
6 - Nicks
7 - Ball
8 - Romo
etc etc etc - only other real notable is TY Hilton in the 10th, only real guy that I got super lucky on where he fell.

I traded DWill & Nicks and got Cameron & Bernard before week 2. The rest of the guys were off waivers.

SO, long story short, RICHIG07, no need to be such a negative nancy, because in any 10 team league, if you draft and trade wisely, you can end up with a power house team. I would probably rank my team 2nd in the league, since Romo is bottom half of top 10, with 1 big time standout game and a bunch of mediocre ones. I am 6-1 right now, only loss is to the team that is 1-6, go figure.

Sent this trade offer tonight just to piss you off some more here richig07

Sending Marshall + Bernard
Getting McCoy

That way I can run out Charles, McCoy, and Sproles as my RBs, and Megatron, then a combo of Keenan Allen, Hilton, Douglas, Harvin at WR, with plenty of top notch flex options

Jesus. You guys are like freaking nazis here.

My lord...

What the hell is wrong with saying someone is biased about something? I didn't say it was just him. I said it was EVERYONE, and even included myself in the post. I couldn't have been less on the offense about it. All I said was that when you have a long time favorite team or player, you tend to begin to be biased towards them after a while. It's not my opinion, it's a fact FOR EVERYONE, to some degree at least. I'm guilty of it as well.

Your WR's are definitely good enough to do so. Having McCoy and Charles make your RB's pretty stacked.

Didn't mean to jump on ya, but I did take a little bit offense to the "you must be in an 8 team league" comment, since I built my team through a great draft and by making key trades and waiver pick ups.

Even though I realize that there are 2 owners in this particular league that aren't 'active owners' there are still enough of us going after the waiver wire and there are at least 3-4 very good teams in this league.

we're the nazis? someone asks a question and you answer in a derogatory fashion, or without reading any other posts, or knowing anything about someone else, you classify them as biased because of their avatar... so again, who's the nazi? the guy judging books by the cover and giving opinions on, (or putting down) other posters, or the guys who give respectful opinions to questions in our little game here we like to call fantasy football??

Fantasy has nothing to do with favorite teams, and most of us on these boards can/would/have proven that.

...and your statement I bolded is not fact, it's opinion.

Gee glad I missed this thread this morning. . and I was itching for a debate!


I personally wouldn't dump anyone for Brown.. but that's my bias as a Cowboys/Raiders fan. . it makes me like Ellington and Wallace too much to drop.
