NFL Thread 12-13

You a Broncos fan? I didn't watch any games yesterday, but I love watch Manning. I see Carson Palmer out there though instead.

Hardcore. I was taken to Broncos games as a little kid. Back when the Seahawks were in their division.
 
I've never liked The Broncos and I've never liked Peyton Manning.

Now that the two are together, I suddenly like both.

Two negatives equal a positive?
 
I've read mock drafts that have both Rodgers and McFadden in the TOP 5 - I wouldn't worry about your TE so much.

If you're looking for a sleeper you might want to look at NY Giants TE Martellus Bennet. He was stuck behind Witten in Dallas for a few years and the Giants offense always runs red zone pass plays to the TE - I wouldn't be surprised if he finished with 7 or 8 TD's this year.

Girl in my league dropped Bennett before week 1. I dropped Keller for him partly because of this. So far so good!

Congrats, I have him in my league but he's behind Vernon Davis on my team - who has been great the first two games.

As good as Bennett played yesterday, his numbers probably could have been even better, Manning misfired on few passes to him. Regardless Bennett is getting A LOT of targets
 
I don't. It's like rooting against Golden State or the Knicks in the past because the Rams have their first round pick next year.

Oh yeah, duh. RGIII trade.

Any sentiment with Rams fans that they should've taken Griffin and traded Bradford?

Yeah. Watching the game yesterday it seemed like Bennett should be able to be about this good the rest of the year. Obviously won't score every game, but should get targeted enough that he can be an every week TE starter for me. Nice.

I wanted it, but only because Bradford has the last gigantic contract for a #1 pick. Getting a pick for Bradford while still ending up with RG3 would have been great, but so is getting 2,395 picks and keeping Bradford.

Bradford's going to be fine, especially with all those picks. I would take that trade all day long. Rams need a lot of players.
 
I'm starting Little this weekend in my FFL.

I definitely don't know The Browns like BN; but I think playing Little is completely situational. I'd never play him against Baltimore or Pittsburgh - but I think The Bills are a team Little and Weeden can do work against.

Having a consistent run game helps too.

I've got him in a 16 team PPR.

My receivers are

Steve Smith
Santonio Holmes
Heyward Bay
Andrew Hawkins
Greg Little

Thinking about rolling with Smith, Hawkins, and Little this week.
 
@Brown Notes how well do you expect Greg Little to do the rest of the year?

Judging by how quickly Weeden is progressing he should put up good numbers. Massaquoi surprisingly looks like the best WR on the team to this point. Gordon is going to likely take a year or so to pick it up. Benjamin will be the same. Cribbs is now WR#5. So, assuming week 2 Weeds is who our QB really is, I look for around 900 yards 7-8 TDs.

Absolutely I'd start him against Buffalo who gave up like a billion points to Sanchez.
 
I have RG3 should I trade him or is he going to score like he has all year?

Tough call.

I traded Newton last year after his first game thinking he would never have a game like that the rest of the season. ****! It depends on what other QB's you have and what you could get in a trade. If you don't have one of Rodgers, Brady, Brees, or Newton I'd hang on to him.
