Apolyton Fantasy Football (not soccer damnit)

You shouldnt be insulted, its a strong trade for me but it provides value for both of us while Jackson is out.

[-Jrabbit]

So you admit you were trying to fleece me. Good to know.

[MRT144]

I'm wild and wooly!

But seriously, what are you going to do with 2 TEs and your RBs in the state they are?

[MRT144]

Also I know everyone hates trading in these leagues like there are no good deals, but you getting the less end of a deal doesnt mean its strictly bad. I want a better TE, you have a TE you dont start, I have the backup RB to one of your starters who is injured.

Taking the lesser end of a deal = helping your opponent.

You gotta win in the now and worry about the opponent later in the playoffs. Making them is all that really matters.

I made a deal that people perceived put me on the lower end and that 'Jaguar is obviously going to win'. I take it people have revised their impression of the deal after week 2. Since I am 2-0 and he is 0-2.

[Al B. Sure!]

I'm down for trading Mike Vick (#3 fantasy QB first two weeks) for an RB.

I'd trade you Greg Little for Vick, straight up.

First, Jared Cook did start for me - against you, at flex. Apparently you didn't notice in the flurry of ass-kicking you were doing.

Second, picking up guys on waivers and offering them in trade the same day is a bit tough for the first-place team. It limits your market to people who already had a free shot at those same guys. If I wanted Jacquizz, he would already be mine. I prioritized Billal Powell higher, and Starks higher still. (And you dropped Snelling, so I can get him for free.)

I've had some injuries (Amendola, SJax, Vereen), but Week 2 is a little early to panic. If Jared Cook has value to you, you'll have to offer value -- and I mean more than a week's worth -- in return. Until then, he's on my short list of waiting-for-Amendola replacements.

[Ben Kenobi]

Suit yourself, Albert. Shoulda sold after week 2.

[Al B. Sure!]

You're not even in our league
Greg Little was an RB in college but he plays WR for the Browns. I asked for an RB.
Greg Little has been demoted; he's a backup WR behind Josh Gordon and Davone Bess
He has Brian Hoyer throwing to him in an offense that's starting Bobby Rainey at RB

On what planet do you think a #3 WR on a Brian Hoyer-led Cleveland Browns offense is worth Mike Vick? Greg Little will be lucky to get even a single fantasy point any given week. Vick put up 63 points in Week 2.

You never specified an NFL Running back.

Yes, and? He's been playing well so far. He's been a productive WR.

He's been doing well so far.

Vick put up 63 points in Week 2.

Yes, and? How is that going to help the Vick owner? He put up 25 this week.

Are you retarded?

Yes, and? He's been playing well so far. He's been a productive WR.

4/26yds and 4/33yds are not what I would consider productive for a fantasy rosterable WR. Browns WR Travis Benjamin has more yards than Little does. Little is 4th in receiving yards on his team without Josh Gordon.

There are 109 NFL players with more yards than Greg Little, including such big fantasy names as Terrance Williams, Andre Caldwell, Kyle Williams, Ace Sanders, Da'Rel Scott, and Zach Ertz.

He's been doing well so far.

No. He really hasn't. He's been demoted and has been outperformed by Travis Benjamin, the 4th string WR.

To make matters worse, he went from a bad QB in Brandon Weeden to a downright ****ty, has no business starting in the NFL QB in Brian Hoyer, while also losing his job and having a legitimate WR in Josh Gordon return to the team from suspension. What does this translate to? Little having ZERO upside.

He should not even be rostered in a fantasy league.

Yes, and? How is that going to help the Vick owner? He put up 25 this week.

**** happens. Drew Brees only put up 20 points in Week 2. In Week 1, Tom Brady only put up 22.
