Bye Week Hell

Postby Lazy Ass Mastermind » Wed Nov 06, 2019 4:50 pm

Thanks to some good luck I’m 6-3, currently the 2 seed and would be getting a bye if the season ended today...

I know I need to bolster my roster to compete with the top team in my league.. so I’m def looking to be a buyer before the deadline.

Also more imminently I’m in Bye Week Hell this week.. my entire starting lineup (minus D Adams) is on bye. If I don’t make a move I might be forced to start Breida and Ballage (!) as my 2 RBs and Mecole Hardman as my flex. Yikes.

I’ve been scouring the league trying to make a deal for an RB. The top tier guys (CMC, Saquon, Zeke, Cook, Kamara) are pretty much untouchable.

So I’m looking at guys like Henry, Mack, Lev Bell, etc.

Any other guys I should try to target?
And judging by my roster, who would you consider trading?

(Sorry for the long post and vague questions but I can use all the help I can get)....

One specific deal I’m considering offering is Mclaurin + a 2nd for Mack. Thoughts?
12 Team, 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, Flex, TE, DEF, K
QB: Joe Burrow, Justin Fields
RB: Najee Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson, Aaron Jones, James Conner, Jamaal Williams, Isiah Pacheco
WR: Tee Higgins, DJ Moore, Amari Cooper, Terry Mclaurin, Treylon Burks, Courtland Sutton, Parris Campbell
TE: Dallas Goedert, Evan Engram
DST: Dallas Cowboys
K: Tyler Bass

*League is Keep 7, 20 man rosters

You can always try to trade McLaurin to a team who's rebuilding and has a vet RB on their team. Or try to sell high on Ballage as the starter in Miami by adding something small for a guy like D. Freeman.

Yes I'd give Mclaurin for Mack. I'd be willing to move anyone on your roster for upgrades except LF, Adams, Sutton and Ertz. I'd prioritize TY, Lindsay, Brieda, Doyle. And I wouldn't target D Henry in a PPR, fine if non-PPR.

Good thoughts here overall.
