Chaim.Witz Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Quickly, here is what I have: QB: Cutler RB: LT, J. Jones, S. Morris WR: B. Edwards, Colston, Chambers, S. Moss, J. Walker, J. Porter TE: Gates, Scheffler K: Brown Def: Minn, Dal Start: QB, RB, RB, RB/WR flex, WR, WR, WR/TE flex, TE, K, Def Standard scoring with Pt/reception. All TD's are 6 and 1 pt./10yds by starter with return yds. (see Sproles below) With that out of the way: Question: What are true feelings about Slaton in HOU? Real possible value, or just some hype? Trade offer: He sends me Sproles and Shockey for Scheffler I know right now it doesn't seem like a big deal, but I am trying to find out what plans they have for Shockey getting more involved in offense. Any NO insight appreciated. While on the topic of NO, P. Thomas and McAllister are available, so info on them would be great also. Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! don't know much about slaton...only a few games will tell.... I wouldn't trade Schef for Shockey and Sproles....because eventually it'll be a Schef for Shock straight up...Sproles is a non factor once LT is back...however if you think the LT injury is going to linger throughout the season...do it....i don't think it will...

Chaim.Witz Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 I agree. That's my question about Shockey. Is he just not fitting in, or is he done. I do not like taking a back up in Sproles to my number 1 guy, but he does have some upside as a RB/WR flex, due to his ability on return yds. However, it does come down to Scheffler and Shockey. Remember, I have Gates, so losing Scheffler doesn't cripple me. I guess its more about not wanting to make his team stronger w/ Scheffler, but if Shockey and Scheffler are a wash by seasons end, then I do have ways to use Sproles, with or without LT. Thanks for the reply. Also, still looking for opinions on Slaton from all you Huddlers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaim.Witz Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Apologize for the bump, but I really looking for some opinions, especially on the HOU and NO RB situations. I don't think I can do the trade, as Shockey has the same bye week as Gates, so it really makes it worse. It's no longer Scheffler vs Shockey, it's Scheffler vs. whoever I can get for Shockey or pick up when I eventually drop Shockey. Still interested in info/opinions on Slaton, Deuce, and Pierre. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Miscreant Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I can't make much of the NO backfield situation other than I am rapidly losing faith in Deuce doing much. I believe Slaton will get his touches no matter what and if he ends up getting the lion's share he be solid with flashes of brilliance.
