2. Turner - Only because he hadn't been 100% and Snelling should steal some carries 3. Torbert - Matthews is healthy, just not getting carries.

I traded Chris johnson for Arian foster and Jermichael finley last week... Very happy I did so. My whole league still thinks I was a moron though

I grabbed him during the offseason based on Rotowire that he won the starting job. All 6 of my Yahoo teams are pretty deep at RB because I've been aggressive on the waiver wire.

Re: Fantasy Tips
I like this trade for you. You just picked up a top 3 TE that performs close to a WR1, in addition to a top-5 running back.

Re: Fantasy Tips
Good job. Foster is way outplaying Johnson so far and in the end should be close. CJ is going to be nowhere his 2500 yard prediction, he's on pace for more like 1400. Finley could be the top TE in the NFL by year-end, he's Rodgers' favorite target it seems. Solidifying the TE spot for you puts this trade in your favor.

Re: Fantasy Tips
Picked up Ryan Torain as insurance for Portis on Saturday. Benched both of them for the Eagles/Skins game. This week? Probably cutting Portis and starting Torain, wow this fantasy stuff is week to week, and unpredictable.

Re: Fantasy Tips
Ok, fantasy advice,... is it time to trade Tom Brady now that he has lost Moss? Or will his production be about the same, just throwing to more guys. Obviously he didn't do much Monday, because he didn't have to with the Pats D and Special Teams. What do you guys think? Oh, I have Kyle Orton as my back-up, whom I could easily ride for awhile.

Also, Brady had success through the air before moss... with guys like Branch and Patterson as his weapons. He'll be able to spread the ball out and it looks like Ben Tate may be serviceable. The receivers won't get the solo coverage they enjoyed without Moss, however. |

Re: Fantasy Tips
How about this - I need to cut some guys at the bottom of my roster to make room for back-up QB or TE. We play 3 WR's, 1 RB and a RB/WR flex. Its a PPR league (.5 per reception; 1pt per 25 yards receiving/rushing).
Here's my RB's and WR's: Colston (WR1) Royal (WR2) Garcon (intended to be my WR3 alternating with Harvin depending on matchup but not really panning out). Harvin (same as above - Moss prolly helps him until Rice comes back) M. Wallace (I think he is going to explode once Ben gets back) Brandon Tate (Picked him up this morning - Question is what will he do now that Moss is gone). RB's: Turner (RB No.1 - but not lighting any fires yet) Torrain M. Torbert (Outperforming the rookie Mathews, but does he keep the job?) Ricky Williams Thomas Jones I am leaning towards ditching Williams, Jones, Harvin and/or Garcon when my QB, TE or K goes on bye. (They happen at different times so I really only need to clear one spot). Any thoughts?

Re: Fantasy Tips
Garcon will be lucky to get in much with Wayne and Collie. He's doomed.

Re: Fantasy Tips
ditch Garcon, but I don't like it, i'd hang on to your RB's bro. Tolbert isn't ever going to take over Matthews, but he's great right now. I'd dump him before RW or TJ.

Re: Fantasy Tips
Another one of those tough decisions people would like to have.
Jamaal Charles or Peyton Hillis? Jamaal Charles or Ahmad Bradshaw? I'm not repeating myself, as I've got more than one team to manage.
