Uncle Fester Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) I play in a 10 team, non PPR league the first half of my season my team looked like this QB-Peyton WR-Welker WR-Decker WR-Antonio Brown/Hilton/Edelman RB-Bush RB-Ridley/Bernard TE-Gates Defense-Seattle a couple weeks ago i traded manning, ridley, jordan reed and brown for brees, jordy nelson, frank gore, and coby fleener so my team now looks like this QB-Brees WR-Welker WR-Decker WR-Nelson RB-Bush RB-Gore TE-Gates K-Hauschka Def-Seattle (starting carolina this week) Bench: Bernard, Hilton, Fleener, Carolina I'm currently 7-5 in 2nd place but i've lost 2 in a row and 2 other teams also have 7-5 records. On paper my team looks better than any other team in the league so my question is how am i only 7-5 and not better? If i win my matchup this week i'm pretty much guaranteed a playoff spot but if i lose, i could be on the outside looking in. I know a lot of it has to do with rodgers being hurt since nelson hasn't done jack since he got hurt, so i've been rotating him with hilton who is the definition of boom or bust. Anyone?

Uncle Fester Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) That trade was horrible for you i thought this too but then i looked into it deeper and the only downside i got to that trade was flipping brown for nelson since nelson has done virtually nothing since rodgers got hurt brees is the 3rd highest scoring fantasy QB and has only 19 fewer fan pts than manning and 1 fewer than stafford who is 2nd flipping reed for fleener didn't really matter because gates was my every week started and fleener has actually been getting me consistent points lately. not to mention i had just picked reed up off waivers right before trading him gore hasn't done anything either but has still played better than ridley i guess you could say the trade hurt both teams then because the guy i traded with has also lost 2 in a row Edited November 30, 2013 by Uncle Fester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegos Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 19 fewer points? By how many points did you lose your last two matchups? Lol jk, but I think your team is just middle of the pack anyway. Nothing wrong with that as you and 2 other guys all have the same record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
