Week 5 - Luck is OUT - WDIS

[jwlincy]

14 Team 0.5PPR League.

With news that Luck is OUT for tonight's game, I have some questions for my starting lineup:

RB (Pick 1): Yeldon at TB, Ellington at DET or J. Randle vs NE

Flex (Pick 1): Hilton at HOU, Watkins at TEN or one of the leftover RBs from above.

TE (PIck 1): Fleener at HOU or Waiver wire add (waivers run again on Sunday so I'd have to drop Fleener before tonight's game and add a guy to start on Sunday morning):

-L. Green vs PIT
-Gillmore vs CLE
-V. Davis at NYG
-H. Miller at SD
-T. Wrigt vs ARI
-D. Carrier at ATL

Thanks in advance.

Yeldon. TB run D is putrid.

Hilton. Always has big games @ HOU, Hasselbeck should still be able to get him the ball. If you also play Fleener and don't want to start 2 Colts, then Randle.

Fleener if D. Allen is out. Gillmore or Miller if Allen plays.

Is Owen Daniels available on waivers? OAK has been getting killed by TEs this season.

Nope but Virgil Green is.

Not sure if V. Davis or Gillmore are playing, but I'd take those two over Fleener.

Yeldon, Hilton, Gillmore or Davis or Miller in that order

Hey fellas, would some kind of trade involving Rodgers benefit me? There is a team that has Clay & M. Bennett (another team with Donnell & O. Daniels). The owner that has Clay & Bennett has:

QB: Ryan & Cutler
RB: Gio, Gordon, T. Coleman & A. Williams
WR: O. Beckham, Cobb, Calvin, T. Williams
TE: Clay & M. Bennett

I have:

QB: Rodgers & Tannehill
RB: Yeldon, Randle, Ellington, Dav. Johnson
WR: Julio, A. Robinson, Hilton & Watkins
TE: Fleener

Just trying to see if there is a deal that makes sense for me. Something like: I give Rodgers, Fleener & Calvin, I get Ryan, Clay (or M. Bennett) & Calvin. Not sure if this is even close for me.

There isn't much available on waivers for TEs. Thanks in advance.

I suppose you could offer Rodgers/Fleener for Ryan/Bennett. Would make you nearly unstoppable in the weeks where Julio goes nuts.

Isn't that too much to give up on my end or is that pretty fair? I was hoping for something like: Rodgers, A. Robinson (or Hilton) and Watkins (or Fleener) for Ryan, Cobb & M. Bennett (or Clay).

Rodgers (24.12 avg)
Fleener (7.22 avg)
Hilton (10.1 avg)
A. Robinson (13.62 avg)
Watkins (6.47 avg)

Ryan (18.62 avg)
Cobb (16.65 avg)
M. Bennett (11.03 avg)
Clay (12.0 avg)
Calvin (10.75 avg)

I wouldn't trade Rodgers for a TE upgrade.

That's why I was suggesting something involving Ryan, Cobb & M. Bennett (or Clay) for Rodgers, A. Robinson (or Hilton) and Fleener (or Watkins). Is that a better deal for me?
