Title: Time To Cut Moore Loose?
Post by Chumpzilla on Nov 4^th, 2004, 7:55pm

I have Mewelde Moore and he has served me well over the last several weeks. However, Bennett is back and so is Onterio Smith. Moore is hurt and listed as (Q) for week 9. Time to cut him loose?

I have Mason on a bye and need to pick up a WR. For week 9 only, getting points per recption/yardage/TD's, do you like:

Stallworth
Pathon
Evans
Pinkston
Parker
Watts
Housch
Conway

Any insight is GREATLY appreciated!!!!

I'm in the process of trading him + Jerry Porter for Chad Johnson. I was going to make this trade last week, but decided to wait one more week, because Deuce was on bye. The owner of CJ asked me today if I still wanted to make the trade, I pretty much jumped at it. Out of your choices, I think Eric Parker is the best bet. That NO pass defense is dreadful.

I would see if you can trade Moore, a la Dullo.

I also would go with Parker and then Stallworth. I think he is very talented and is a part of a solid offense. This said, I would still go with Parker first.

Tice said Moore would be inactive this week if he was anything less than 100%. Since Moore has a sprained ankle, he will be less than 100% and won't play.

I'm going to keep Moore stowed on my roster for now (I have room to do so) and wait to see what happens with the others. I really think that Onterrio will take over the #1 again, immediately.

If you have to cut him loose, try trading him for a #2 or #3 WR, or cut him and pick up (of those listed) either Parker, Watts, or Stallworth. I like Parker best of the group, although Watts is really coming on and Stallworth can put up a big game at any time (although he won't do it consistently).

Also, keep an eye on Evans. Evans is the clear #2 now that Reed is hurt. If McGahee is able to keep running the ball effectively, he'll pull the safeties up closer to the LOS and Evans will get behind the secondary since Moulds will get all the attention.

Yes, if you can get someone to give you something for Moore, do it. He's going to lose his spot to OSmith. He may get another chance if injuries jump up again, but unless you have a deep roster, you'll probably need to dump him at some point, so see what you can get.
