Title: Roster Tweeking..Your point of view?
Post by MordecaiCourage on Oct 18^th, 2005, 12:19pm

Hey GURUS of the Gridiron.....Help me fine tune my roster

I am looking to tweek just a bit at RB [smiley=yes.gif]

My 6-0 team
Favre, Delhomme
James, McGahee, R. Brown, R. Williams
Horn, J. Smith, Moulds, Bryant, Burress, DJax, Engram
Crumpler, Heap
J. Brown
TB

I am looking to drop 2 WR's and add a RB. Pick up 1 from the following group....Help me decide who to pick up and who to drop, thanks.
Foster, C. Taylor, M Faulk, C. Perry, Fisher, G. Jones, P. Pass, or M. Bennett (I like them in that order) [smiley=hellyeafunny.gif]

Also need a bye week filler at Defense...whatcha think about 1. Detroit this week against Cleveland? Or 2. Cleveland "D" against Detroit or 3. Tennessee against Arizona[smiley=shrug.gif]

OR

Do I stay put with what I've got?

it's hard to mess with 6-0! [smiley=clap.gif]

but since you asked.

C. Taylor, M Faulk, C. Perry, G. Jones, P. Pass will be hit and miss unless there is an injury. if there is, one of these rbs could be a decent starter. i keep thinking taylor is go to get more reps with lewis' poor showings.

the receivers i would consider dropping would be engram and/or bryant.

defense wise i like cleveland at home against the inoffensive lions. i don't think detroit can repeat their 2 defensive tds on the road this weekend and i think the cardinals will put up points against the titans.

don't mess with a good thing too much. good luck!

Like ricky said, I wouldn't mess with your WR's/RB's. Everything looks a-okay, and you have the record to prove it. If you insist on doing it, though, I would drop Engram or Bryant in that order of preference and pick up, in this order of preference: Taylor, Perry, Foster, Jones, Faulk, and I would go any lower than that. Of the bunch, Taylor is a cut above the rest. Perry and Foster are next; then, Jones and Faulk.

On defense, go with Cleveland... if Harrington remains the starter or Orlovsky gets the 11th-hour knod. But, watch out if Garcia gets the call. If he does, Detroit may be the better option.

Good luck! [smiley=shamrock.gif]

I think Detroit's D is playing well right now, and should handle CLE, even on the road. I don't see CLE putting up anything more than 14 pts.

As for your WR/RB questions, I guess I would grab Taylor, then maybe Foster. I'd drop Engram to get either one of those, but I'd go no further than that. I see you have both DJax & Engram. Doubtful you'd ever play both, so you may want to drop Engram.

Hope that helps...Good luck!

I would go with Detroit. While they probably will not score two touch downs, I think they are an underrated defense.

I am with the others on the running back front. I would pick up Taylor or Foster. Taylor is a much better option.

To make room, I would dump Engram. If my memory serves me correctly, he needs to score touchdowns to put up points. Bryant has a better chance to pick up yardage and get more receptions.

Seems like everyone agrees that Engram gets the axe..but split on who I should pick up on "D"..My gut says Detroit but I like Cleveland at home...Coin flip!! [smiley=laugh.gif]

Last question concerning this ?.?.? Detroit is gone so it is between Tennessee at Arizona, GB at Minnesota, Miami at home against KC, or Cleveland at home against detroit. Thanks [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Basically who will hurt me LESS [smiley=hammer.gif]

My initial post still answers that question...
