So, my WRs are pretty shitty. I've got Nuk and nothing else. 12 team league, every week i start Hopkins with confidence and hope the second guy gets a catch. That being said my team

WR; Hopkins, Maclin, Crowder (really banked on him breaking out), Josh Gordon (have had him since week two, I really want to see him come back in any capacity and have faith he'd be a stud once he does). Picked up Stills hoping he would do something last week, he didn't, fuck cutler, but chose to drop him to pick up Morris (Alfred), which leads us into the RBs.

RB: Gordon, Elliott (Morris on the bench now), Martin, McKinnon, and Kelley from the skins.

My brother says he'll give me Alshon for McKinnon. I should do it, right? He hasn't produced, but that's the point of buying low and selling high, right? I got this guy because i had the top waiver add. my second wr option has always sucked. Is this a no brainer? Trade evaluator tells me i lose points, but i don't know.

Alshon, given your needs, would probably be a better fit than McKinnon, although, outside of name value, doesn't really change much, just gives you more so-so options.
But, why Josh Gordon? If this isn't a dynasty there's zero point in rostering him, hes not playing this year

What do you start? 2RBs, 2WRs, and a flex? 2RBs, 3WRs?

And yes, you should drop Gordon for someone on the wire.

2 RBs, 2 WRs, TE, Flex

My TE is Gronk and backup is ASJ (Drafted Ebron, another disappointment). I'm 4-1 Dak is QB with Watson next up, I'm not doing bad. Just don't want to slide. WR has been my biggest weakness from the start.

Never going to do that. Watched the doc, always a fan of his. That just doubled up for me. He's a stud if he reinstates, looks like he's ready to reinstate.

I would look to deal Gronk for a WR before he gets hurt.

And I would probably do the Mckinnon for Jeffrey deal, although you can use this weekend to wait and see if last week was a fluke, since Jeffrey already played.

Crowder (really banked on him breaking out)

I thought he would start slow this year until Pryor proved to be dangerous on the outside. That has happened. I am expecting better games for Crowder going forward with more attention to Pryor.

But yeah, I'd take Alshon for McKinnon... just useless to do that until next week now. Can you counter for someone else you can use this week?

this weak is over and doesn't matter, i figure end of days whatever happens with elliott he should be back for playoffs. i don't know what happens gordon, i don't know why everyone is so down on him here, granted, i'm a fucking stan for him. i'll never drop a guy i think can put up top numbers at the position if he can play and honestly, watch the doc, he let it all out there. dude's ready to come back.

I just don't see him coming back, and if he does, he's 1 stupid move away from being suspended for a loooooong time. Plus, he hasn't played in what, 2 years? You have to question what kind of shape he would be in. But that is just me.

he's a stud in waiting for me. i feel like the time not asking for reinstatement is him getting back in shape, plus just getting better as a person

He might be ready, I wasn't about to spend anytime watching his documentary, but, him being ready, and Roger being ready to let him play, are two entirely different things. Ain't happening in 2017, if ever

It's going to happen like the Philly sports revolution. Eagles on Point, Sixers with Embiid will be on point, Rhys Hoskins is on point and will lead the Phillies, I don't know anything about the flyers, they can be a dumpster fire,would hope they do better, but end of day, really don't care.

Also, none of you cats want to see some redemption? Life is all about getting better and improving upon yourself, why not for this young man?

A man with the world in his hand who pissed it down his leg for weed multiple times, who by his own admission only did rehab as a PR stunt, fund redemption? No, not really.

I wish the guy a healthy, happy, drug free life. But could care less if he ever steps on a football field again

just weed? you didnt watch the video. the fact that he hasn't asked for reinstatement yet tells me he's growing as a person.

Is him doing more than weed supposed to help make your point, or mine? No I didn't watch the video, nor will I
