Jaime L Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 7 hours ago, PyroclasticFlow said: Granted I spent a fair amount on Kelce, I just don't trust his health. I know it's hit or miss with injuries, and Kelce should get more targets with Maclin gone, but i think KC will be more run oriented coming out of the gate. Lots of buzz with Hunt and his handcuff is a somewhat proven back, and Hill gets more run plays as well. The Allen/Benjamin swap, in my eyes, just a WR1 exchange. Rivers has the slight edge with accuracy I think, but again I weighed the injury proneness of Allen. Call me crazy but I'm more interested in the production that can come from the relationship of the Panthers duo. Now, Kittle. Didn't see that hammy being an issue, but I'm comfortable with my TE group. We'll see that turns out. Thanks for weighing in man. I tend to think WJ solidly won both sides of the deal but what's great it is it'll all come out in the wash. If you're right it'll bolster a potential playoff run and if wrong it'll increase the chances of a Jaxoming. 6 hours ago, Manhole Eunuchsbane said: Would love to hear Shirley's take on this trade. I would too. Shirley's been out of the office as of late. Apparently there's a problem with a broken link out there that's taking people from W-C to here, when really it should deposit them in ESPN Public League #440522 that she's trying to fix.

It's nice that you're covering for her, but I've heard otherwise. Word on the street is she's been an absolute mess since Tywin took her out for a nice seafood dinner then never called her back.

Whiskeyjack Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Looking to maybe trade OBJ for 2 good WR + a QB3. Let me know if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ Lannister Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Trade between Bronn and I. I get T.Y. Hilton and Ameer Abdullah Bronn gets Amare Cooper and Agholor I don't take a huge downgrade at WR once Luck returns and hopefully fixed my RB3 problem. Either Abdullah or Prosise should emerge as at the very least serviceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace, Extat Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 WEFL media insider here with your I'll Get to it in A Minute update. Bronn wrapped up a coup of a trade today by sending oft-injured Detroit RB Ameer Abdullah and WR T.Y. Hilton to JJ for Amari Cooper and a longshot sleeper Nelson Agholor. I'm hearing that JJ thinks Hilton will benefit him greatly down the line, but with doubts swirling about whether Andrew Luck will ever attempt another pass, this seems like a lopsided exchange. A source close to JJ told me that the enigmatic owner was under the impression that Bronn would use his connections at the Department of Energy to reopen the Yucka Mountain nuclear waste site sabotaged by senator Harry Reid (D) if he did not give in to the unreasonable demands.

Dunknegg Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Sorry for the late post, but been one of those weeks QB - P.Rivers, A.Luck (B.Bortles, J.McCown, P.Mahomes) WR - B.Cooks,, D.Thomas, A.Jeffery, G.Tate (D.Moncrief, J.Matthews) RB - L.McCoy, CJ Anderson, M.Lynch (T.Montgomery, F.Gore, C.Thompson, J.Conner) TE - R.Gronkowski, C.Fleener (A.Seferian-Jenkins) K - A.Vinatieri DEF - NYG, ATL Overall, I wasn't as disappointed as I was anticipated I was going to be after my first Experts draft. I know I made a few mistakes, mainly spending more early than I initially planned on doing. That left me the victim of being poached a few times in the latter half where I was hoping to get value...thanks Mya I tried to go for more value picks than a specific philosophy so I'm not sure how that will play out. A lot rides on Luck's shoulder as my backup QB's do not inspire much confidence right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Word on the street is a conglomerate of Nigerian Princes are looking to get in contact with both Pyroclastic Flow and JJ Lannister for a very interesting investment opportunity. Updates as more details become available. /Jaxomed LLC. Apparently they make handmade Baskett's out of all organic materials that retail for about $82.

Jace, Extat Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 After being informed that both Amari Cooper and Nelson Agahlor had scored TD's in the first quarter of the early games, I'm told that JJ Lanister was overheard saying in hushed tones to an aide "It doesn't matter now, Project Monarch's funding is secure."

Week Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 What a mess of a week. This was the only team that got a win thanks to modest performances by Wentz, Nuk, Coleman, and Howard. Not terribly inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudguard Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 My week was horrendous. I had 4 QBs and none scored above 10 points. Dalton scored negative 3 points. Of my two Westeros teams, my best QB by far was Jared Goff. Hope this week was a fluke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroclasticFlow Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I hear you. In Keepers I had Glennon riding the pine and he outscored Cousins, Palmer and Flacco. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace, Extat Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 In league C today McBigsky was able to extort a starting high quality RB out of Manhole Eunichsbane in exchange for dreams and dirt, finally leveraging his misguided draft strategy of assembling 6 ten dollar QB's into a positive development. Later, I'll have Mooch on to give his thoughts on the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, the Saints defense is ass, but Minnesota seems to have improved on offense. Two really good edge receivers in Thielen and Diggs, a nice pass catching TE, and Darwin Cook appears to be the real deal. The O-line should only get better as the season progresses (barring injury of course). On top of that I get Snead who basically becomes my 3rd best receiver once he's off suspension. As far as losing Murray goes, I have Lynch on my bench, so I feel like I'm not really losing much outside of depth. And I thought Lynch was much more impressive than Murray was last week. So I improve at two spots (QB2 and WR3) and really stay the same at RB2 with the exception of some depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
