Marcell Ateman Anyone?

[Jigga94]

This sounds crazy, but what do we think about Ateman down the stretch here? In a 32-team my WRs are horrid, but I can make a trade to get Rodgers as my starting QB and the only notable hit to my starting lineup is going from Tyrell Williams to Ateman.

On offense, I'd be starting Rodgers/Gurley/DJ/Ateman/Gabriel/Ertz.

Edit: I'm currently starting Colt McCoy.

Gap between Rodgers and McCoy is much bigger than Tyrell and Ateman. I dont like Ateman at all but what is Tyrell doing for you?

I pulled the trigger. A bunch of lateral IDP moves to make salaries work. Here's hoping Gurley, Ertz, and Rodgers can make up for my garbage WRs.

Probably a WR3 in a 32 teamer RoS. Rodgers is quite valuable in a 32 team league, I think, so if you can go from McCoy to him for a reasonable price you do it.

None of it means anything from yesterday. Tragic offense vs top 3 defense. He never stood a chance.

Top 3 defense is a stretch...

...is it though?
In measurable stats, the Ravens allow the least yards per game, the 2nd least pass yards per game, the 3rd least rush yards per game, the least yards per play and the least points per game.

A case could be made they are the top defense - let alone top 3.

McCoy > Rodgers

That is what I would have said as well.

He had a nice touchdown Sunday, kind of a box-out basketball style grab. So moving forward I think he can be useful in the redzone

And another dominant performance by Baltimore in Atlanta. They're clearly top 3.

#1 in the league in yards allowed. #4 in Defense DVOA. #5 in Weighted Defense. #4 in pass defense. #5 in rush defense.

Chicago is better. Baltimore is right there with Buffalo, Denver, and Jacksonville.

Also #1 in points allowed. Top 3 is definitely not a stretch.

Can you guys just start a thread about defenses, and leave the Ateman thread alone?

... or just get a room.
