    I’m going to try and trade for Zeke also. I should be 7-2 after this. If so I’ll will try to trade for him. The guy that has also has David Johnson. He lost his second game this week and has a low total score which essentially gives him another loss.

    It’s still a risk playing Zeke the first week he is back in the first week of playoffs. Hopefully Dallas still has something to play for at that point.

    Tried trading Cousins the last few weeks, most recent for Ameer Abdullah who passed, wanted more than just Cousins. Trade deadline Nov 11, so I have more time, wondering if I should just go ahead an drop him (Watson is my other QB)?

    Since Aaron Rodgers went down, I tried to trade for someone's backup and Kirk Cousins was my first target. But the guy wanted Kareem Hunt. I loled. I'm working on a trade for Tom Brady now for much less.

    I would at least try to get a defense out of him, but yeah, there isn't a lot of utility in having a backup QB so their trade value isn't too high. Dropping him wont kill you

    People have horrible ideas on their players value. I have DET as my DST which should be good ROS, though I guess if JAX was available...

    one more question, for a standard league, who is better both Week 9 and then ROS... Sterling Shepard or Devante Parker?

    Well Luck is out for the year. Meaning TY Hilton is almost worthless. So I will probably drop him after this week.

    I have no idea how I am currently 1st. Some luck and a little skill I guess.

    I drafted:
    Terrell Pryor
    TY Hilton
    Sammy Watkins
    all 3 will be off my team after this week.

    Along with Jay Ajayi in the 2nd round.

    Last I heard, BUF GM said it was 50/50. He could play and be mostly a red zone target. I think I will sit him... but my alternatives are pretty sketchy (Jeffery versus DEN, Corey Davis versus BAL). So Benjamin is no worse a dart throw as the others.

    If Texans decide to run with Savage, how deep of a sleeper would it be to fire up the colts Def for ppr?

    I have Cousins, but should I drop Watson, pick up McCown to play tonight vs BUF) instead of Cousins at SEA? Or wait, add a skill position like Lockett for this weekend, and add McCown or Big Ben next week?

    I don't like anything the Dolphins are doing on offense right now, I find it hard to start any of their players.

    Both of my QBs are on bye this week. I'm stuck with the hoffific options of Cutler vs Oakland or Eli vs LAR. Any help here? I'm leaning Eli.

    Also Chris Thompson vs SEA or Peterson vs SF? (.5PPR)

    Should I start Kirk Cousins at SEA or Jacoby Brissett at HOU? Worried about OL injuries, receiver injuries, and now snow and mixed precipitation against a tough and pissed Seahawk defense. I'd have to drop Pickett.
