My Roster & Who I Should Grab Off Waivers

Postby Rare » Sat Aug 08, 2009 1:46 pm

I'm in a 20 team league, drafted #9

QB Trent Edwards (BUF)

WR Roddy White (ATL)
WR Torry Holt (JAC)
WR Michael Jenkins (ATL)

RB Matt Forte (CHI)
RB Willie Parker (PIT)

TE Jason Witten (DAL)

BN Leon Washington (RB) (NYJ)
BN Brandon Pettigrew (TE) (DET)
BN Juaquin Iglesias (WR) (CHI)
BN Matthew Stafford (QB) (DET)

K Mason Crosby (GB)
BN Shaun Suisham (K) (WAS)

DEF New York Giants

Had to leave early, so last 2 picks were done by Yahoo. Probably going to drop the backup kicker, and pickup another position player.

2 questions:
1) What position do I need help at the most?
2) Who should I grab off waivers?
3) Anyone expendable to trade?

RB's left:
Andre Brown (NYG)
Maurice Morris (DET)
Carnell Williams (TB)
Lamont Jordan (DEN)
BenJarvus Green-Ellis (NE)

WR's left:
Bobby Engram (KC)
Joshua Cribbs (CLE)
Bobby Wade (MIN)
Josh Reed (BUF)

These are just a few of the guys available, if anyone else comes to mind that you think might be available based on that depth then I would love to hear it.

Well with 20 teams not much to pick from. I would drop a back up kicker and pick up anything lol.

I would get L.Jordan. He has a little upside and could get some balls. But Moreno will be the man.

Maybe BGE: NE RB's are a mess...he could get the rock and when he did last year it was not bad at all.

Who are the TEs left ?

I would say if u can then try to get a sleeper WR and a TE (Olsen kinda) in some deal for Witten then try that as well. Your WR line is too thin...and Edwards as a QB isnt a stud either.

If u have to pick some1...then u can give Joshua Cribbs a shot. CLE is low on WRs and Braylon isnt 100% yet. Even though a long shot but Cribbs can turn out a sleeper in such deep leagues.

Its really tough to pick from in such deep leagues...and also would suggest that in such leagues dont pick a TE until very late.

TE options include Billy Miller (NO), David Martin (MIA), LJ Smith (BAL), Desmond Clark (CHI), Alge Crumpler (TEN).
So should I try and trade Witten for a TE and WR package?

TEs are shallow too..as expected.

See what other experts suggest. But I would try to get a Sleeper TE - Olsen, Daniels, Carlson along with a sleeper WR - Lance Moore, Anthony Gonz., Holmes if u can...

If not possible...then try to package 2 guys....and try to get 1 top 3 round guy.

Ie either build depth or position strength.

Check here again for opinions if u can think of some potential trades. All the Best.

Thanks a lot for the help guys.
What I'm gona try and do first is push Witten + Jenkins for a Daniels/Carlson/Olsen + upgrade at WR

Any chance owners bite on any of these?

Witten + Jenkins for
Owen Daniels + Lance Moore

Witten + Jenkins for
John Carlson + Bernard Berrian

Witten + Jenkins/maybe Holt for
Greg Olsen + DeSean Jackson

I'll wait to see how this plays out before picking up someone for the backup kicker. Hoping I can get lucky.

Of these 3...here's the ones i like best.

Rank 1. OD + Moore.
Rank 2. Olsen + DeSean
Rank 3. Carlson + Berrian.

Before trying the trade wait for more opinions here. Its been just me so far ;)

But personally I like the idea of shoring up positional depth in such Deep leagues.
