Knew I had to go for a top QB or I'd never get anywhere. Looking at age and offensive talent Stafford was my top target. Wish it hadn't taken this long for the Stafford/Johnson hook-up to pay off.

Del1812 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 He better win a title soon, the core of that team is OLD. Correct, but I've got two first round draft picks for the end of next season. Will be used to help breakdown and build up another squad. Very pleased with Danario Alexander's output from the last two games, guves me some depth an another option, especially if Jennings and/or Garcon don't come back this year.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 The weird thing about the seahawks having 177 points is that, With having austin, maclin, amendola and foster still to play being 100ish points behind, It isn't out of the question for it to still be a close game, Even though i do think Dizzle has it won.

Del1812 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 It's not done yet - so I don't want to tempt fate - but what I'm particularly pleased about this week is that my points tally is topping 100+ points again (potentially 150+). I started the season with a few lucky wins in an easy schedule, and I think at one point I had the worst overall points total for a plus .500 team. The Chargers have a strong team and it might just come down to a tiebreaker for the division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the current projected top 5 picks only two are owned by the teams they originally belonged to: Cowboys gave their 1st, Ryan Mallet and Brent Celek for Tim Tebow and the 2012 3.12 Steamers gave their 2013 1st for Michael Turner (from the Broncos) who then used that pick in a deal to secure the 2012 1.16 (used to select Stephen Hill, WR) Steelers gave their 2013 1st and DeMarco Murray for the Buckeyes 2nd and Matt Forte. The Buckeyes used that pick as part of the package to secure Trent Richardson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, just updated my bait - anyone want to help me nip the title from Donnie? I agree entirely. That's why last year I raised the possibility of increasing league fees or introducing a larger deposit for trading future picks. You'll both be falling short to me IMO. While your team can pull off a good week and you might get lucky you just don't have the consistency to be labelled a 'great team' just yet.

You have a ridiculously strong team and I can't believe you're 3-7. You need a stud QB and that's it. There's only four or five though so I suggest you pay what you need to to get one.

I've lost quite a few games by just a few points. Rodgers, Griffin, Ryan, Stafford etc would all cost (and rightly so) a stupid amount to acquire. Love to have one of them though! I'd probably rather go for a Dalton/Freeman/Wilson type of player if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say I've got the second best team in the league. I am quite heavily invested in my stud players at the cost of depth. I think I'll be stronger next season, with Smith continuing to improve along with Rudolph, and hopefully a new situation for Tate. Ingram is a trade or a couple of injuries away from being a top back if he's given all down responsibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably rather go for a Dalton/Freeman/Wilson type of player if possible. You've already got a guy like that though and it's not getting you anywhere. You just need to find someone who would be willing to part with a QB and give up one of your RBs/WRs. You don't need them all to be successful. I'd say I've got the second best team in the league.

I don't agree with the first bit though you're not far off, I agree you'll be a lot stronger next year though.

If Geoff reads this, I'd like to see what he'd want for Ryan. Also Donnie, who would you more likely be willing to trade between Rodgers and Griffin? Since I've got Ridley now, I'm also a lot more open to trading McCoy than I previously was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Griffin has crazy upside (Mike Vick 2010 but with better passing) but Rodgers is unbelievably consistent. Griffin is about 8 years younger though... Anyway, ignoring all that, I have the leverage so you'll need to bring all your eggs to the table if you want to deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
