Apathy Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 That's sort of a loaded question, isn't it? I mean, why are you thinking about dropping Deuce? What is it you're trying to accomplish? What is the scoring system? Can you not drop somebody else? Won't somebody else grab Deuce? And the biggest question...why is Kevin Jones available to begin with?

NAUgrad Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Without answering any of the above questions. Sure go ahead, give someone else the championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy Posted December 8, 2004 Author Share Posted December 8, 2004 (edited) It is kind of a goofy league rule. You have to have 3 rbs, no less, or no more. Trades do not happen much in this league. Everyone always wants too much in return. Someone dropped Jones about 3 weeks ago and still available. I have the first FA pick this week because I am lowest in points, but need to decide on WED. evening.

wildbluefan Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Thats heavy Rudy, but I would NEVER drop an established 1st round calibre RB for an untested ROOKIE !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevfish Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 I would and did drop Duece- I am hoping that someone else picks him up and gets very little point out of him. Dont keep people for what they did last year- the saint are bad and will continue to be bad for the rest of the season- Why would you keep him? pray he does good? Let somone else pray for him. My vote is DUMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My vote is DUMP 598503[/snapback] this guy's got the right idea - don't hang onto Deuce for his name. Kevin Jones, IMO, will be the better RB down the stretch. He faces MIN and CHI in weeks 15 & 16 - need I say more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broncosn05 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 (edited) Thats heavy Rudy, but I would NEVER drop an established 1st round calibre RB for an untested ROOKIE !! 598490[/snapback] WHAT ABOUT JULIUS JONES I'D TAKE HIM IN A HEART BEAT HE'S TO GOOD RIGHT NOW AND I'M A GAMBLER AND JJ IS AWESOME. PS- Think about a keeper in tatum bell I saw him this Sunday and he ran all over san diego.

Ben-waa Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Without answering any of the above questions. Sure go ahead, give someone else the championship. 598068[/snapback] Based on the past performances of both backs, and the sked down the homestretch, I think that I would drop him. The Saints are playing horrible...have been all year. Their D can't stop ANYBODY...so as a result, they are forced to abandon Deuce early. Jones has been performing well since he has been given the opportunity to be a considerable factor on offense. The soft defenses that he faces in the coming weeks should bode well for him. If you do add him to your roster, I would probably even start him over Taylor. I agree not to keep somebody just based on the name...I do think that fixed rosters suck...it doesn't give you much of a chance to obtain any depth on your team. As for the comment quoted above, I wouldn't be concerned about Deuce bringing home the Championship for anyone. Who knows, if anyone picks him up, they might even drop someone that is worth picking up. Take all of the factors into consideration, and make the best choice for your team.

WaterMan Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 (edited) Deuce sucks this year. Let some team who has Big Name Syndrome pick him up and start him and lose their first round in the playoffs.

Rudy Posted December 8, 2004 Author Share Posted December 8, 2004 Thanks for the comments. I am going to drop him. Jones has the easier schedule, and right now deuce is just a name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 drop him I had him this year and he totally left my team out to dry. This team: Bulger, R Moss, D Jackson, J Smith, D McAllister, C Martin, T Jones, C Brown got me an astonishing 3-9-1 record. What a joke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
