Well, there are still 3 weeks to the regular season - - a lot can still happen for good or bad..... just saying.

I

I mean I already have a problem figuring out who to sit between Bijan, Kamara, Achane, Gibbs, and Montgomery, so I can't imagine what the hell I'd do with McCaffery in that mix too. I know all of you really feel sorry for me

I heard that they're benching all those dudes for playoff runs, better get some reinforcements

 

[Bandit]

Lefty and I did a medium sized one, rectifying some RB starter/cuff situations that free agency created-

A. Mattison and A. Gibson headed to me to cuff Zuess and Stevenson

A. Jones and the 3.11 headed to Lefty to pair with Ty Chandler

LOL. I just found this from the pre-season. I had no idea you guys basically did the same damn trade before the season on March 24th.

 

[Bandit]

How many times am I facing @leftypower this season?

Week 1 and week 3 so far....

Week 13 as well, sheesh!

Maybe he'll have enough guys on IR that I'll beat him by week 13

See Dad, it's all Monkey's fault. These posts were from before week 3.

Apparently that's my thing this year...

 

[SmokingMonkey]

not sure if it will stick but I actually have both flex spots taken up by RBs this week, for what I believe is the first time in several seasons

The Leftypower Plague of 2024 (Monkey’s Curse)
Just to expand on Bandit’s blame game. …..
Week 1 – Hey, why not start it off with a real ball-buster - McCaffery is a late day scratch with calf issue which turned into weeks 1 thru 9.
Week 2 – Pacheco leaves the game with leg injury. Later determined as a broken fibula, to IR (yet to be cleared). Jordan Love (groin) in game out for 3 weeks.
Week 4 – R. Rice suffers in game broken leg (from his own damn QB) while going for a fumble. Out for season – and suspension looming next yr.
Week 7 – Aiyuk suffers in game injury (later determined to be ACL+) – out for season. M. Evans suffers in game hammy injury – out for next 4 games? Footnote: with my WR crew totally decimated, made a trade of J. Conner for D. Johnson who promptly get traded to Ravens? (1 catch over 3 games. WTF - There where certainly much nicer places to go than be a backup for Flowers – screw me).
Week 8 – Diggs suffers in game injury torn ACL – out for season.
Week 9 – QB’s Lawrence and Dak suffer in game injuries – why list them ? Well they just happen to be the QB’s for both my TE’s. The curse stretches beyond my specific players as well.
Week 10 (post game) – Traded A. Jones/T. Chandler for A. Mattison/Z. White
Week 11 – Ferguson concussed after one catch. Mattison (ankle) and White (quad) suffer in game injuries extent unknown at this time. …

So, as of now my WR room, consist of; A. Mitchell (draft), L. McCaffery (draft), R. Pearsall (draft), K. Boutte (ww), D. Vele (ww) and perhaps Evans.
As a result of all that, there is zero sympathy coming from here for anyone else’s lineup problems.

zero sympathy, but perhaps loads of empathy?

It all actually worse when you put it down in writing. ..... but I regress.

 

[leftypower]

Look at that Treff - going all in on his Raiders - - must feel good about the changes being made there. .... BTW - I have 2 broken ones I'll send you back.

Well,

Mayers is a 'let's see if he can find a new home next year', I know he wants out, and he is a damn fine TE. and in pinch, he has about the same shot as an emergency fill in at TE as anyone else available on the wire.

Laube is a pure wing and a prayer, maybe he does something this week and if so, maybe he's worth a future stash.

And what would I be if I couldn't say I had Ameer when he was in line for a start?

I did dump Crosby though, not entirely 'all in' on my Raiders. An edge rusher on a team that has shit offense and trails 99% of the time just ain't worth the spot

And if Mayers ever does do anything, become anything, whoever has him can probably snake another #1 from Irish.. so there's that

Or at worst a 2nd. .... I sure am glad I have no particular attachment to any guys - got my favs - but who ever thought Tommy Temble was worth a 2nd (other than a diehard Irish fan) is seeing this:
