Grits and Shins Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Been a bad year for injuries and under performers. So how much have you worked the waiver wire / trade circuit this year? In my 12 team league with 16 roster spots and 9 starters (1QB, 1 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 FLEX, 1 PK, 1 DF) I was surprised to find that only FIVE of my players I did not draft (six if you count the fact that I cut Drew Carter before the season to acquire Jason Campbell). Which is ESPECIALLY surprising as I have spent more money on transactions than any other owner I guess I have really been churning those five roster spots. Of those 5 free agents on my team 3 were drafted and subsequently cut by their owners. The undrafted players that I own are Kurt Warner, Selvin Young and Jason Campbell. How much have your roster have you turned over this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguinsfan Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I was thinking about this yesterday...this has been my worst year ever and I'll be glad when it's over 10 team redraft, 16 player rosters, 9 starters.... I currently have 6 players on my team that I drafted This week, I started 2 guys that I drafted thinking they'd be my starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomfin2000 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Original Team: Romo, Schaub Parker, Henry, Peterson, K. Jones, T. Bell Fitzgerald, Driver, Galloway, Berrian Watson, Daniels Stover Vikings DEF Now: Romo, Warner Parker, Henry, Peterson, K. Jones, Davenport Fitzgerald, Driver, Galloway, Hackett, Henry Watson Wilkins Vikings DEF I had 15 out of 16 of my original picks through Week Nine, then cleaned house after I had my worse game of the year. I'm 8-2 at the moment. I've got a 7 Point lead, my opponent has the Tennessee defense in a standard Yahoo scoring system, so it could go either way.

matt770 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I wonder if anyone can beat this one. Not my team, but a compulsive trader in my league. Traded Housh and Maroney for Addai before week 1. Later traded Addai, Kenton Keith, K. Curtis and Bobby Engram for Roy Williams and Reggie Bush. Incidentally, four of his eight trades have involved Williams and Bush. Some other players that have come and gone on his team include Westbrook, T.O., Marion Barber, Larry Johnson, Joey Galloway, and Jamal Lewis. The only players on his team today that he actually drafted are Vince Young and Chris Cooley. He also held on to Bowe, picked up before week 1. Week 1 roster: QB Vince Young WR Terrell Owens WR Donte' Stallworth WR Kevin Curtis RB Jamal Lewis RB Joseph Addai TE Chris Cooley BN Chris Henry (TEN) BN Muhsin Muhammad BN Adrian Peterson (CHI) BN Eddie Kennison BN J.P. Losman BN Dwayne Bowe BN Daunte Culpepper BN Buster Davis Week 7: QB Jeff Garcia WR Randy Moss WR Dwayne Bowe WR Roy Williams RB Reggie Bush RB Kenny Watson TE Chris Cooley BN Vince Young BN Earnest Graham BN Daunte Culpepper BN Philip Rivers BN Terry Glenn BN Jesse Chatman Week 11: QB Carson Palmer WR Dwayne Bowe WR Randy Moss WR Nate Burleson RB Frank Gore RB Jesse Chatman TE Chris Cooley BN Deion Branch BN Kenny Watson BN Devery Henderson BN Maurice Hicks BN Earnest Graham BN Jeff Garcia BN Vince Young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Beatings Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 In one of my locals, out of 14 players on my roster, I only have 3 of the original 14 that I drafted. Those 3 are: Santonio Holmes, Jerious Norwood, and Kellen Winslow. Everyone else has been either dropped or traded at some point in the season.

His last drafted player was FWP who he traded away a couple of weeks ago. Ths guy has made over 130 moves (cost $1 per add/drop) so far and about 15 trades(also cost $1). He's had guys more than once via trades and waivers. He's doing fairly well as he moved to 7-4 and is in 2nd place as of the end of this week. His latest trade was today. He gave up Brees and Colston for P Manning and D Bowe. He did the same thing last year and made it to the SB as the #1 ranked team and ended up losing in the SB. Only thing was the guy playing him was scared and ending up splitting the pot with him. This is a pretty much winner takes all league with the regular season winner and the SB runner up getting their money back, the winner of the SB gets the rest.
