Title: What should I do with my team?
Post by Tmoney300zx on Nov 12^th, 2003, 1:44am

Right now I am in fifth place, but I have the most points in the league, meaning that my team has not been very consistent. I need to be in the top four to make the playoffs, and I am a little unsure at this point. Anyways, scoring is standard in my league: 1 pt/10 yds, 6 pts/ 1 td. What do you think my weaknesses are and what moves would you suggest?
QB- McNair, Kitna
WR- S. Moss, Chambers, Warrick, Wayne, Key Johnson, Lelie, Price
RB- Holmes, JLew, Dillon, C. Taylor
TE- LJ Smith
K- Brown
Def- Seattle

We must start 3 wr, 2 rb, and another wr or rb. Right now I am starting 4 wr and 2 rb, but would rather start 3 each since rb's put out more consistent points. I was thinking of trading for someone like Deuce McAllister, Alexander, or someone else at that level. Another option was to go for a more consistent receiver like S. Smith.

What do you think would be the best choice at this point in the season and who of my players do you think I should/could trade away to get another good rb? Im not sure how to come out on the top of this one. Thanks!

First of all, you're one place out of the playoffs, with 1/3 the season to go still. Make sure you're not pushing the panic button unnecessarily. Do you have a trade deadline?

That said, you don't have enough trade material to get Deuce or Zander, except maybe McNair. Kitna is a consistent QB this year, so if you're desperate enough for another RB, package McNair and maybe Wayne or Price for a Deuce. Kitna should still get you average, consistent points.

I still stick with my first comment though, you probablly have 4 or 5 games left, and are only 1 position out. Might not be a need to trade unless it sets you for the playoffs.

Good Luck!
