Totally forgot to put in any waiver claims this week in the KOTF. Hope that doesn't comeback to bite me as I struggle to avoid relegation

gosh Monkey, it's almost like you don't care about us

 

[tlance]

I was shocked that Ivory fell to me with the 5th spot.

I fully expected to fill my D claim there.

I know it! Wife needed the laptop last night, only had time to get my claims in on my $$ leagues.

BTW, LOVING the Jordan Reed pickup I made in KOTF in case Gronk was a no go. He will be my flex guy this week vs DEN

 

[TKOSpikes]

sent you an offer, Monkey...


also, to let everyone know, if you're feeling Luck-y, I'm looking for a flex option and am willing to add Andrew with CJS/Fred to acquire such a player. I realize the QB market is small, but it only takes one!

 

[SmokingMonkey]

I can't remember the last time I was in a league where the 3rd ranked QB overall was dropped, especially this late in the season. Damn the available talent pool at RB is shallow!

Yes, I will gladly take Phillip Rivers with my #1 wavier claim. This was better than trying to make a trade, lol

So Ram, Sam..any other Ram's fans..WTF are the Rams front office doing?? You've got guys out there like Vince Young, Charlie Batch, Dennis Dixon, Bryon Leftwich, Matt Lienart, hell even Jeff Garcia is begging for a job..and they call Brett Fvre? 44 year old Favre, been gone for three years, sucked the last year he was around, and also just last week while discussing Peyton v Luck on NFL network said the high school kids he coaches are out throwing him???
Ridiculous

 

[TKOSpikes]

poor Tebow, no love.

aside from the Favre inquiries, they choose Brady Quinn? what can Brady Quinn do that Tebow can't? because Tebow can do lots of things Quinn can't...

 

[wilwhite]

what can Brady Quinn do that Tebow can't?

1. Complete 50% of his passes
2. Stay on an NFL roster

He can also get Mike Golic to sing Enrique Eglisias.

For a team like STL i think it is stupid for them not to give Tebow a chance... Why would they want a pocket passer, can any of these guys turn the team around?? With tebow, the whole dynamic of the team will change- great for tavon austin... unlike the other QBs Tebow will make defenses prepare for him... They are having RB difficulties all season, with tebow the running game would have a chance... The one pass tebow was good at was the deep ball, that would be good for tavon austin, and maybe austin can be in more running plays like percy harvin used to for the vikings... Tebow would open up the possibilities for that team... Plus, there is no interest in tebow for the longterm, so they can play reckless fun football... Give that team some life!!!

Fisher doesn't have a problem with Tebow, it's the circus that comes with him that the Rams FO is avoiding. Kinda sucks for Tebow, cause I think he would have definitely been considered for a few different teams this year if it wasn't for his 'fans'

Why be afraid of the circus now?? If they continue at the path they are going then people are going to stop coming to games!!!

I think it has a lot to do with not wanting to disrupt the develop of the players they have in place already, compared to filling seats at the next home game.

Don't forget, this team was targeting 2014 for a big postseason run, and with 2 more 1st round picks this upcoming off season, they may still be able to do it. Bringing in someone like Tebow to sell tickets will be looked at for what it is, a gimmick by the front office.

I actually like that they are staying the course, and although he probably sucks, I am interested to see Kellen Clemons run the offense against the vaunted SEA D.

My hopes/wishes for the Rams 2014 draft:
Trade down on one of their first round picks to get more 2nd and 3rd round picks.
Draft Aaron Murray with one of their 2nd or 3rd round picks.
Let Bradford and Murray have a legit competition at QB for next year.

 

[wilwhite]

If they called Favre they're certainly not afraid of a circus.

People tend to forget that Tebow went 1-4 in his last five starts, losing a couple of "must-win" games by playing really horribly and getting bailed out only by what happened in other games.

The Rams' QB next year is Bradford; whatever they do now they're doing with that in mind.

Uh, yeah, what Monkey said.

 

[TKOSpikes]

That's the problem I think a handful of teams have right now. They think the circus will follow him and look at it as a gimmick. I think otherwise. I'll stand corrected on the Bills, because Thad Lewis looks pretty not bad actually, but I think the Rams, Browns, Vikings and Jags would all be better off with Tebow under center.


...and I can't believe I'm spending this much time backing Tim freaking Tebow.

 

[TREFF]

Me neither! I honestly don't think he'd make any of those teams better. . just more interesting.

you're probably right


...hey, remember when the Dolphins were disgusted because they didn't pick Quinn? lol -- not saying Ginn Jr. was the way to go, but at least they didn't fall for the other Brady!

 

[TREFF]

Good luck to ya Lefty.. big game this week!

 

[Barilko]

What is this hockey you speak of?
