I've been running an "unofficial" SD Fantasy Football league for the last few years. I need a few more folks to sign up.

It's a yahoo league, live draft next Wednesday at 9 PM EDT. We have 6 so far, need 4-6 more. No $$ involved unless I can convince Schoobs to throw in an SD t-shirt for the winner. Wink

PM me if you're interested.

Get Rashad Jennings asap! Most likely is on the waiver wire.
Not a bad choice. My league drop the waiver system so I should be free to pick him up when it's unlocked.

Someone took him in ours, but I picked him up on all the others right after MJD got out and I saw RJ picking up carries.

My (real) team failed to show up for the game. My fantasy team stepped it up though!

Another question for anyone willing to give their opinion (I've talked myself around in circles about this already):

I need to fill the 4th WR/TE position in my PPR league. My choices are Brandon Lloyd, Jacob Tamme or I can pick up Dustin Keller.

Never trust the passing offense of the NYJ. nod
You can't trust the decision making of Brady. He could spread it around to 8-9 skill players or he could single out the best match up and keep going to that well until it dries up (Welker & Gronk mostly).
Same goes for Peyton though he does love his TEs.

In either case you're screwed and probably won't get a TD from any of these choices but if you had to guess on a TD chance, it'd be Tamme. In the Red Zone, Brady goes to his TE (7 of 12 passing TDs are to TEs) or they run it in mostly hence why Lloyd is almost devoid of TDs (1).

But, this is a PPR league so honestly you go with the one you think will get the most targets and catches and that can make up for the lack of TDs.

Lloyd (65 targets, 35 receptions, 7 games)
Tamme (38 targets, 23 receptions, 6 games)
Keller (9 targets, 9 receptions, 3 games)

Best bet, go with Lloyd especially with Hernandez not suiting up.

My gut is telling me to go with Lloyd, but he burned me with one point last week. Lost by 3 overall points. Plus Lloyd is on the damn infamous NE injury report which means he might be perfectly healthy or he might not play.

Thanks.

That's the Belichick way though. He'll be fine to play this week and if you get burned, more than likely it will be because of Brady going in other directions than it will be with Lloyd.

I think you would have made the right choice if you went with him this week...

I did go with Lloyd....but went up against someone with Stafford who had a really good day. I started RGIII at QB and he did not do so well. Losing right now, will probably not make up the difference but at least I know I made the right choice.

Pissed at myself for not starting Titus Young over DeShean Jackson though......
