Best (and worst) add/drops

I'd have to say dropping Brunell for Warner was my best move. Brunell is now, well, himself again, while Warner has been a nice every-week starter.

 

My worst by far was adding Gado, then dropping him after his week vs Minn. I'm playing the owner who picked him up and is starting him in our Rd 1 playoffs. Hope it doesn't come back to bite me...

I would have to say my worst move by far was giving up on Larry Fitzgerald after week one. I picked up Reggie Williams from JAX whom I thought would pass JSmith and boy was I wrong. While I'm not one to make excuses we start 3 WR and we only have 15 roster spots and with bye weeks coming up he looked like my weakest link at that time.

 

My best moves were grabbing Brunell after Bulger went down the first time and also getting KCurtis off the wire as Bruce got hurt. I was also able to get Warner after Bulger went down the second time.

 

Needless to say 32 moves later dealing with injury after injury I finished 10-4 and have the #1 seed. The team I'm playing this week was 8-6 and he has Fitzgerald as part of his receiving corp, not a good omen lol

I'm glad someone started this thread...I've not wanted to publicly admit this, but I came out of my draft with the following 4 RBs (We're allowed to keep only 4):

 

Edge

Kevin Jones

Cadillac

Larry Johnson

 

Around week 7, I dropped LJ to pick up Antowain Smith :D LJ was on waivers for like 30 minutes before he was gone.

 

Around week 9, I dropped Caddy for Gado. :D bag:

 

Around week 11, I dropped Gado for Dominic Rhodes (playoff insurance) :D:D:D

 

Turns out, I won't be around week 16 to cash in that policy. I posted the second highest points in the league playoffs last week, my opponent posted the highest. :D bag: :huh:;) Had I kept any one of these 3 and started them over KJ I would have won in that league.

 

And all 4 top seeds lost last week, I would have had a cakewalk to the title had I not dropped these guys!!!

 

:D:D:D

if you are in playoffs how can you be happy with cmart for boldin?

I got Boldin from a guy with terrible rb's. In that league I'm in as a wildcard. Picking Jamal, R Moss, Horn and Arrington in first 4 rounds hurt.

Best draft pick: Carson Palmer - 5th round.

 

Worst draft pick: Willis McGahee - 1st round.

 

Worst FA add: Ahman Green. Had him sit on my bench for a couple of weeks just watiting to play him... then watched him go down again in his first game back.

 

Best FA add: None stand out. Made lots of speculative moves to bolster my RB core - Greg Jones was probably the best.

 

Best trade: Ashley Lelie for Reuben Droughns. Money!!

 

Worst trade: None really. Steven Jackson for Dom Davis was a wash...

I did the exact same thing with Gado in one of my locals. We're required in this league to have exactly 4 rb's. I dropped Gado after the MN game for Fraud Taylor. :D I'm now playing a guy in the semis who has Gado. My best pickup was either Jurevicius, Engram or Gado(2 other leagues).

in 10 years of fantasy football, my worst move, period: traded LJ and fitzgerald for chad johnson and chester taylor (i had jamal) about a few hours before priest was lost for the year. i haven't checked, but i'm pretty sure LJ and fitz had at least double the points that i got in return.

 

also, i drafted keary colbert, then dropped him mid-season because he was doing nothing. he then scored the weekend after i dropped him. he scored again two weeks later, so i picked him up and started him as a bye-week filler. he scored zero, and i lost by 1 point. keary colbert is dead to me.

Best: Warner, Willie Parker, and Marion Barber. Parker got me a few wins early that I desperately needed. Picked up Barber the week he had his best game. Helped me knock off the #1 guy. Good timing, mainly due to what I've read here!!!

I dropped Jamal lewis just before his only 100 yard performance of the season. Picked him back up only to see him stink up the joint again.

 

So Jamal qualifies as my two worst moves, three if you consider drafting him...

 

Best move was picking up Rackers

Week 8:

 

Cruisin along undefeated, seemed like I was stacked everywhere. Had made a good pick up around then and got Curtis. Was just waiten to get a little healthy at WR(RMoss RWilliams IBruce) still I had Shockey, and had made a good trade earlier in the season to grab Fitzgerald. My RB's at the time were Edge, Westbrook, Rudi, and Moore.

 

Short story long, I thought I could solidify my team (QB rotation was Favre, Delhomme, really nice at that time) by adding a top notch RB. I gave Rudi and Randy for S Jax, and Duckett :D .

 

I have since lost 4 out of my last 8 and 3 out of my last 4. Things are not looking great for my playoffs.

Best pickup was getting C. Palmer after week 2. Major oversight by league, including myself, during the draft. Some owners thought he was drafted, others thought he would not have an impact season. Since picking him up my team has gone 10-1.

 

Best drops has to be 1 and 1a - Benson and KJones. KJ has proved to be a waste of a jock strap. Kept thinking that he would come on during the latter part of the season. All he does is carry the ball five times and get hurt.

best trade= I got T holt (before Knee issues) for Duece the Friday before he blew his ACL.

Worst = Same day sent larry Johnson for SJax because now I needed a starting RB because I didn't believe M Anderson would stay the starter. SJAx was ok but not any better than Anderson and LJ would lok good now on My roster. :D
