@SmokingMonkey , sent you something to chew on.

the player you targeted isn't planning on switching teams for a few more seasons

knocked out a few things for work today, I should have some time to try to counter tomorrow afternoon (fingers crossed)

You know it was nasty if Dean spit it out

Knew I should have second thoughted that one. Almost added a 1st, which should have alerted me to how far I might be off.

I’ll do better next time.

no worries, it'll take a special offer to pry that one away from me!

It is with deep sadness that My Wife Still Hates Sundays reports the passing of Tim Tebow's fantasy relevance.

Tim's condition deteriorated rapidly over the past week as he was unable to execute even the most routine plays. He is survived by the memory of past, fleeting glory.

Looking to do an IDP swap with L. David. Not because I want to get younger or better, just looking for a similar player who doesn't have the same bye week as D. White.

Good offer Fuzz, but @TKOSpikes edged it out with that extra #3/#5 swap.

I wasn't going to deal David for a guy whose fantasy worth was pretty much strictly tied to sacks, but, that's the hand I was dealt

Well hell, I certainly don't blame you there were at least 4 guys on waivers just as good. .... so you get an extra 3rd and still can upgrade

well my biggest hangup is the fact that he's L. David, Cornhusker legend, and it'd break my heart to drop him for John Bostic even though I'd likely get similar numbers.

Although I would argue that no one on waivers has the pedigree that David has nor the proven track record. Not that long ago, David was the best inside linebacker in the league, and he's still within the top 5-10. The projections of some of those dudes are certainly in the same ball park, the numbers will likely end up similar, but David is a bankable, lock for what he's projected at as a floor, I'm not so sure about the others, their projections seem to be a little bit of wishful thinking like more in the area of best case scenario rather than a floor or even a ball park estimate of a median, IMHO.
all that being said, I couldn't just pull the trigger on a move, it had to be a trade. And now I'm swinging for the fences with a rookie sack specialist over HOF Aaron Donald, who isn't even listed as the #2 on the current Rams chart. The kid looked unfreackingstopable against the Lions starters this weekend and was wreaking HAVOC on them.

All I'll say is I never use the fantrax, fantasypro, ESPN, CBS, etc 'projections'. I go to a couple of other trusted sources who are IDP right way more than wrong with proven track records. Obviously situations change due to injuries so those factor kind of erase all hopes and dreams (one way or the other). ......

Oh no- My guy is a tackling machine. You tossed a set to draw to an inside straight.

I've done that from time to time...only had it pan out once...but that once felt SO good

Condolences @HaroldSeattle... Travis Etienne likely out for the season

Well I did draft a slew of RBs so hopefully it doesn't hurt to badly.

We probably would have taken him (reluctantly) at five if you'd chased Chase.
