Yeah, but you have to take into account the two game suspension, and he's injury prone. Plus, the shelf life on these smallish receivers seems to be less than the giant receivers for some reason.

Not a bad pick, or anything like that, just small qualms. In the end, I hope you'll let me and my little ole team take a shot at the title anyway :wink:

Yeah, there is always risk, but you know, personal preference and gut feeling and all that. I didn't think you were attacking my pick, that was just my train of thought at the time, I woulden't have cried over White or Coles.

I don't think my team is exactly a juggernaut, I think its deep enough to handle a couple busts though. You've got a pretty strong team as well. Should be a fun year! :thumb:

Well, in 3 of my 4 leagues, I am 4-1 (one I should be 5-0, but yahoo woulden't let me change my QBs before the game, which was the difference, and its under discussion).

In this league though, I'm 0-5, thanks to crappy LT and Maurice Jones-Drew.

Everyone on my team is for sale as long as the price is fair (not so much for my lame non-playoff hopes, but because I want to be fair to everyone, and not be like the Pirates that year when they gave the Cubs Lofton, Ramirez et all for practically nothing).

Sent you an offer.

When my team is losing to teams with empty spots and players in byes I'm in need of a shakeup.

I'm 4-2 somehow, and my team sucks I think.

Zoiks. 33 pts from kicker and tight end on Monday night for a 107-99 winner! Where'd that come from? Sorry Wombats. :wink:

Yeah, I've won my last three games and destroyed each opponent. Now I'm 3-5. Go figure.

Never mind. This is the ESPN league thread.

You are rolling fools in the Yahoo league.
