  • Yet if you'd been patient, Witten would be perfectly viable trade bait right now. So, yeah, keep trying to have it both ways: claiming Witten was both worthy of giving up Michael Floyd AND smart to drop.
    I'd also not be 4-0. I'd also miss out on the services of not only Delanie Walker, but my backup TE who's better than Witten.

    And dropping Rudolph was an admission that he is injured, you disingenuous ass.
    Dropping Witten opened my eyes to look for better options. I'd not have found Walker if not for dropping Witten.

    Anyways, Witten would not be valuable trade bait. Who would trade for a TE16 in the league now when he was valued at TE5 or 6 before the year started? Face it, his value has tanked.

    claiming Witten was both worthy of giving up Michael Floyd AND smart to drop.
    You're the one claiming that Witten is trade bait when you explicitly rejected a trade for him when his value was higher. Who's the disingenuous ass?

    I can see it if you accepted a trade or took Witten off of MRT. That would make sense to me. Then it would be that you value Floyd more than Witten, rather than arguing (as you did), that Rudolph was better.

    So, in a way you were right. Witten wasn't worth a flex spot. That means dumping his ass to look for a player who was was the correct move.

    I will say, MRT was smart enough to take a flier on Witten rather than spending money on Rudolph, and turning down a TE upgrade.

      Now you're just talking out of your ass. You dropped Britt for Walker on 9/1, with Witten still on your roster. Then you dropped Witten for Fleener on 9/3, subsequently dropping Fleener for Tyler Eifert less than an hour later.

      Pro tip: It's kind of stupid to lie about things that are on the record.

            What lie? Are you saying that I would have started Walker over Witten week one?

            I'd love to say I was that brilliant, but I gotta be honest. I'd have started Witten had I kept him.

              Yeah, I know. My bad.

              He doubled down, now lying about facts that anyone can look up, apparently just because his self-image demands it. He really is pathological.

                  Wasn't it you who came up with the crack, "Jag's farm team?"

                  Personally, I'm amused by the team. It's a freakshow but it's also 4-0. Did I predict that? Hell no.

                  I'm just enjoying the ride and enjoying rubbing in the TE situation in particular.

                  Delanie ****ing Walker being even odds as good as 50+ dollar Graham?

                  Think of the dude on the side of the road who's had to scrape by for everything he's gotten and then uncovers a magical nugget that nobody else saw and it actually ****ing pays off.

                  Now imagine that same dude who tosses away the thing that he's been using to scrape by, everybody calls him an idiot and it still pays off!

                  Hell ya I'm stoked.

                  Delanie being awesome is great, but having Dropped Witten for bupkis? Now it's a legendary move.

                    You really can be thick. Look at your quote in my post. You posted that you would never have found Walker without having dropped Witten. That is a lie because, per the league transaction records, you still had Witten on your roster when you picked up Delanie. In fact, you had them both rostered together for two days before you dropped Witten. Ergo, your statement is a lie.

                      Yeah, there's a big difference between having no other choice than to start Walker and choosing to start Walker over Witten. Had I kept Witten I would have started him. Guarantee that I would have on week 1. If I were a super genius I would have done it but I'm not. I know me. I would have started Witten just because I paid more than him.

                      That is a lie because, per the league transaction records, you still had Witten on your roster when you picked up Delanie. In fact, you had them both rostered together for two days before you dropped Witten. Ergo, your statement is a lie.
                      Wow. Two whole days, days where I was actively shopping Witten. This is really your argument? It makes me look even more brilliant because now you're arguing that I predicted Walker would be awesome and cut Witten because Walker made Witten expendable.

                      I'd love to admit that yeah, I totally saw it, but I didn't. Which explains the Lacy for Brown deal. I honestly thought that Lacy + Boldin for Brown was in Jag's favor.

                      Did you miss my earlier statement where I said I didn't really give a damn about Auction because I've won it before? IDP is the one I've wanted to win in like forever.

                      But now I'm glad I hedged Lacy. So. So. Thankful. And this whole TE business with Walker is the sweet, delicious icing on the cake.

                      You know what, JR? If I lose every single game in both leagues I will be content.

                      • I'm not "arguing" anything. I was just pointing out a factually incorrect statement.

                          • I want to make a score change request for next year. Can we change negative yards for the defense to 50? And under 100 yards should get you 25. Negative yards has happened, like, once in NFL history and never in the history of the modern NFL.

                              So why would you make a rule about it? Because the Bolts had a good day against an incompetent team yesterday?

                                Check the auction scoring system. There's already a rule about it. You get 17 points for negative yards, same as for pitching a shutout. Should be more. Negative yards never happens so it should be like +50.
