WildTurkey Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I think it was a good one. Davis is so hit or miss and I can't take that risk (in 4th place in a 4 team playoff league). Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmyk93 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Lee Evans sucks! At least Davis gets his touches and TD's. Detroit defense is just as good as TB defense fantasy wise. You got boned! Sucker!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehype Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Agreed. If you think Davis is "hit or miss", then you're going to HATE owning Evans. Detroit for Tampa is an even swap, but personally, I would have just kept Detroit. You should have kept Davis though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donutrun Jellies Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I think it was a good one. Davis is so hit or miss and I can't take that risk (in 4th place in a 4 team playoff league). Thoughts? 1100054[/snapback] If Julius and Caddy were healthy and dependable, SDavis would be expendable, making any kind of a flyer deal interesting, but I'm thinking you could have done better than Evans as a flyer for SD ... Still, it's an interesting deal and if LEvans can live up to his potential and your RBs heal, you'll do well. A thought on your DEF. TB will serve you well ... If Jacksonville is available, scoop them up as a playoff companion for TB ... Jax has SF and Hou in the playoff weeks ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfin2000 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I picked up Evans prior to Week 5 when it was announced that Holcomb would get the start, but I dropped him to pick up the Eagles defense last weekend. The point is that he was a free agent for several weeks when I picked him up and he's been a free agent since I dropped him last Saturday. Granted, we only have 6 bench spots, but when a guy spends the better part of the first seven weeks as a free agent in a 12 team league, that should tell you that he's not very productive. Maybe that will change, but I'm not betting on it. As far as Davis is concerned, there's something I've learned over the past couple of weeks from owning Steven Jackson this year and playing against the average starting RB this season: A back that scores TDs will win you a lot more games than a back that racks up yardage but rarely sniffs the endzone. Unless Lee Evans busts out the second half of the season like he did last year, you've just been served. It happens to all of us at one point or another though, so don't take it too hard. It was a mistake, but probably not a fatal one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildTurkey Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 LOL ... I see no one thinks like I do. Detroit D has the stats they have because of a couple of DEF TDs they have over the past couple of weeks. That aint gonna last in my opinion. Tampa D has been solid every week. I picked DET off the waiver wire two seconds before I made this trade. I guess no one remembers what Evans did last year, and if you see my receivers I have already, I'm not worried. Stephen Davis may do awesome against the Vikes, but he is breaking down before our eyes. I feel much more secure with S. Jackson, F. Taylor, and da Bus in my starting lineup. Anyway, we'll see. No one knows what's going to happen any more than you know what number's coming up on the roulette wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfin2000 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I feel much more secure with S. Jackson, F. Taylor, and da Bus in my starting lineup. I have Taylor and I'm a Jax homer, but I still pray that I never have to start him two weeks in a row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildTurkey Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 I have Taylor and I'm a Jax homer, but I still pray that I never have to start him two weeks in a row. 1100193[/snapback] Agreed, I'm just banking on Jones or Caddy healing up. Jones butched up and came back last year, maybe this year he'll do the same. His injury was a lot worse last year in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree with you about the Bucs defense outlasting the Lions though. That's why I'm carrying the Eagles and the Bengals. If the Bengals can't keep up their momentum the rest of the season, I'll still have a solid defense to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weekapaug Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I just think you could have gotten more for Davis. 1100286[/snapback] This is what I was thinking. Davis is worth more than Evans and TB. Maybe not for long, but right now he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
