Bench:

Also, I have the opportunity to trade Colston + Brown for Randy Moss and would love to know if that would help or hurt me.

I really like your team - it's stacked from top to bottom, and has some good depth. Your starters are really solid, with no weak points anywhere, and I wouldn't recommend any changes other than maybe a different kicker (but that's really knit-picking).

As for the trade offer, I think giving up Brown and Colston for Moss is just too much. Brown has a solid opportunity for production every week and is an injury away from being a very valuable commodity. I just don't value Moss by that much more than Colston to make it worth it - the best-case trade would be MSW and Brown for Moss (if the guy would go for it), but otherwise I'd stay put if I was you ;-D

That team is extremely stacked for a 12 team league. How did you get Manning, Jones-Drew, AND Turner?? They were all 1st round draft picks..did you make any trades?

I wouldn't trade for Moss - despite his big play potential, I don't like the value in giving up Colston(also a solid WR1) and Brown.

Thanks for the feedback.

I had the 2nd pick overall and drafted MJD in the first round and Peyton in the second. At the time, I thought I might have stretched for Peyton, but it's looking like a smart move now.

I traded Marshawn Lynch and Brett Favre for Brian Westbrook at just the right time. Lynch was coming off suspension, Favre was heating up, and Westbrook's value was low because of the uncertainty with his foot.

Before last week I traded Westbrook & McCoy in a package deal along with some of my bench players for Turner.

I'm pretty happy with the way things have played out so far, and frankly, I've gotten pretty lucky. I'm the top scoring team in the league by 100 points. A lot of people were down on Marshall before the season started, and I got him pretty cheap. I snagged Sims-Walker off waivers. Peyton has been better than most people thought he would be considering he has been doing it without Harrison and Gonzalez.

Excellent Team, 10 out of 10.

Would pick up someone else instead of T. Choice, someone with more upside because Felix and Barber are going to get all the carries barring some type of Injury. But overall, wow, what a fantastic line up.

I agree. Moss is a pimp but still just one player. I wouldnt make that trade.

It seems that we have a lot of similar players and Im interested to see how you handle Crabtree, Moss, Simms-Walker and all the other WR in the mix.
I drafted Moss, but also picked Simms-Walker off waivers and have potenial to pick up Crabtree this week. I Think Im going to and at least have him on the bench. thoughts?
