roddy has been decent so far, just hasn't had a blow out game yet. Last week was an aberration, ATL ran the ball all day as Carolina has poor run defense. ATL only threw the ball 22 times. I believe I read somewhere that he would of had a TD which was called for pass interference. Anyway, he is fine, he is still seeing a good amount of targets.

Don't think I can wait for him to blow up when the trade deadline is coming up and his value is going down.
I still like Roddy there, but I guess I can't blame you. Green does look like a stud in the making. I think I'd aim a little higher though.
Offered Roddy White for AJ Green straight up and the AJ Green owner wanted nothing to do with White so now I am trying to get Stevie Johnson. How far the mighty have fallen this year.

Oh man lol. I guess if I had Green I would decline too. Why trade the guy thats already preforming for the guy that you think can preform.

Is it okay to start worrying now? He has a total of 343 yards for the year, last two games of 70ish without Jones on the other side of him. 2 TDs the whole year.
It's not just Roddy; Matty Ice's numbers are down from last year, and WAY down when compared to his preseason expectations.
I expect Roddy to bounce back, so he's not worth trading for the diminished value he'd demand at this point. Would I buy low? Probably not, but I wouldnt cut him loose on the cheap either.
12 Team $ (PPR + Return Yardage):
QB: Tom Brady, Andy Dalton RB: Charles, Lynch, Martin, Stewart, DeAngelo Williams, Rashad jennings, Joe McKnight, Leon Washington WR/TE: Antonio Brown, Brandon Lloyd, Randall Cobb, Ted Ginn K: Bryant DST: Bills
I just traded for him. He has not been that bad, his points are about the same as mr Larry Fitz who has more yards and one less td.
sure hes not touching calvin but throw a few multi TD games for Roddy over the next 7 weeks and he finishes as a top WR. 13 guys have more TDs than him, 8 of them only have 1 more.
Id imagine this bye week can help Ryan work with Roddy and Julio, they have a pretty good passing schedule the rest the way.

3 cheers for optimism!!!
As a Roddy owner, I was thoroughly in need of that pep talk. Agree 100%!

In competitive leagues, I'll be trying to target him low. Find a jaded owner and try and sacrifice some bye week points for a stronger stretch run. I think he can bounce back, and he's probably as low value wise as he'll ever be.

when I drafted Roddy he was the 2nd WR off the board. I could of had Calvin #$@!%^&^. Roddy is not the same player he was last year for sure. I was able to trade him for a injured Andre Johnson and I'm happy about it.

I just traded for him at what I think is low value. I got him and Carter for Benson/Scott and Finley. I already have Daniels and haven't been completely sold on Finley's potential stud status. my RBs have been my handicap this season w/ Mathews/Tolbert and Blount/Graham. It's hard competing with a bench full of RB handcuffs entering some dangerous bye weeks. Had to be done.
12 team standard and my WR is deep w/ Jennings, Austin, White, Breaston. I'm building for the playoffs!
