manureid is tanking imo he wants to hoard picks for 2012

i'll check out your block dagless.

would be good to trade with some people outside of my division, hate seeing my players put up points against me twice a year.

Tanking is when you deliberately leave players out knowing they will score better than those that are in.....look at my roster and tell me (especially as injuries and this weeks bye week players have hurt) who i could put in!! haha

I have 2 RBs in that will be lucky to get a carry!!

 

[manureid]

If anyone feels like they could sit an IR player like Charles for the season, and thinks they can come up with a pretty enticing deal for him, let me know.

 

[Exe Gesis]

You could move some 2012 picks for players on other teams, is what i mean.

I'm kinda teasing you, not making an accusation.

I know, that is why I 'haha' at the end of it! I wish I was in the position to 'tank'!

Am fielding offers for Charles, and possibly my 2nd rounder (which will be pretty high!)

Check out the Dodgers trade block.
Not sure exactly what your roster is, but maybe trade for Felix Jones and Mendenhall, tho i think Mendenhall is getting thru an injury and is back-up at the moment.

Mendenhall practiced full today and will be starter again.

Problem is his oline this year. 3 season long injuries to starters didn't help an already weak oline.

Id like Poszluzny.
Maybe would like to bring the original Baggers Timmons and D.Johnson back.
Interested in Decker.

But I dont like the idea of dealing D.Moore, L.Houston, JPP (from Dodgers 'interested in' category).

Players I could probably deal to whomever....

Pierre Thomas, all of my DBs, McClain, Hawthorne and Mays (mlb's in 4-3), Mallett (if someone wants to take a flyer on him ending up at a team next year as starter), Shaughnessy, Carlos Dunlap (tho no sacks has the most QB pressures in the league this year, sacks will come if someone's patient with him unlike me), D.Keller (maybe), Jacoby Ford (just getting back to game fitness last couple weeks, he'll get plenty of looks), L.Houston (maybe).

If someone's angling for bigger names like Bowe, Wallace etc, then I would be looking for a big name in return at a skill position (RB, WR, TE, QB). Or a collection of big names at (LB, DE, DB) plus draft pick.

Angling at DL mainly, being the reason I put them up in the interested category. As has been the case for a while, JPP is the main target

Not overly keen on Moore TBH.

Decker + the whole LB crew + 2013 1st rounder for Wallace

 

[manureid]

I like Wallace and Bowe, but don't have enough to give up for either I dont think.

 

[Exe Gesis]

Personally, I'm quite happy with where my roster is at. But as always, I like trimming it down from time to time, the fringe players, not stars. Not looking for big returns or unfair value. Just stuff like 2 for 1, or a package of fringe players for a couple draft picks etc.

So, thinking of the names I mentioned above. Stuff like eg, Dunlap + Thomas for (something). Or, McClain + Ford (for something) etc. Naturally, the idea being that someone trading for them might be interested in taking a flier on someone coming on, or trying to beef up their depth a little for byes/injuries etc.

I'd consider star for star trades too. But apparently they're harder to pull off. People naturally want to hold onto their best. But these can come off if the two trading have depth in one position and a dearth in another that it's win-win for both.

 

[manureid]

Any chance of us adopting an 'AFL' system and giving me a priority pick

 

[Exe Gesis]

This will only be adopted if we bring in expansion teams.

 

[Dagless]

This will only be adopted if we bring in expansion teams.

In which case the expansion team will have picks 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12 in the first round anyway....

 

[drd23]

....and then trade away their current players for for the rest of the 1st round picks

 

[Exe Gesis]

We could bring in max 4 expansion teams to spice up the league given the roster size would be reduced to compensate. Teams would have to give the expansion teams a number of players from their team.

lol joke, but it could be done.

 

[Wizard]

Who dropped Garcon?

 

[drd23]

GG did

 

[dspeed]

Still shopping my 1st round pick

GG if you could process this, cheers

You've too many WRs on your roster D.

GG, drop CB Tim Jennings to make room
