Stop it with your facts and negativity!

He's in a better position than he was I reckon. More potential upside (story of his career....) than before. Still a clear stash and hope for the best player though.

Yeah i guess. I'd say slightly better position, as all the RBs in Dallas have issues, so if he shines in practise he could get time.

BUT...I'd be concerned as he has been traded away 2 years after being drafted (For basically nothing), by a team who picked him as their replacement, and have replaced him with a 100 yr old Fred Jackson...I have a suspicion he has a skeleton in his closet, probably not being committed...LOL...

2 big winners of the RB moves: 

1) Isaiah Crowell in Cleveland starts the season as clear #1

2) Josh Robinson in Indianapolis who becomes the clear handcuff to Frank Gore.

David Cobb & Jay Ajayi have been placed on IR designated to return, eligible after Week 8 (Believe first game they can play is Week 10)

Bishop Sankey confirmed as the Week 1 starter in Tennessee (They also traded for Terence West, who should be the back-up), and they are hosting Jonas Gray for a visit this week.

Miami was always Miller's job, but now the back-up should clearly be Damian Williams over Ajayi.

Trying to remember, but you can change your lineup after the first game provided they haven't played yet, right?

Correct, so for now you only have to worry about the Patriots and Steelers guys.

Tevin COleman named starter for Falcons Week 1

Alshon Jeffery may sit due to contract issues (HOLDOUT?!?)

I have a slight suspicion that I have been trade-raped (even though I suggested the trade), but it does help a) bring the age of my squad down a bit, and b) increase my stock of very average RBs.

I like the trade, especially in dynasty, but I think Ivory is a above average starting RB, he'll get most of the touches, in fantasy that is a huge thing for RBs.

So this is due to him being injured and his contract being up, basically he has said he will only go if 100% so it doesn't risk getting worse and affecting his contract going forwards. His agent has said "Just health, no contract issues" => BUT that doesn't exclude what I have said above.

part of my training regime during this offseason has involved depth charts - what they are, where they are, what they do, etc. I wanted RBs who are going to be first choice.

And not Doug Martin.

Got you a decent RB which you needed and gets me a WR that I needed. Benefits us both. I just hope Ivory doesn't help you beat me this weekend!

Ah. Right. I may as well go and drop Rodgers and Gronk to waivers then.

Happy with choice to start Brady, had a feeling he would have point to prove so 288 yards and 4TDs is good for me.

Plus he was playing at home, which has certain advantages......

They were playing away (Steelers home game). Saying that, they get to use their own balls anyway.... Lol

Anericans list their home and away sides backward to the rest of the world. Because they don't like to make sense. If you list the home team first or use the metric system, the terrorists win.

BTW, that listing backwards thing is related to baseball. 

The away team bats first and the home team second. It's so they can get the home team doing a miracle in the bottom of the ninth type thing. Well, that's how it was explained to me by another barfly in the States a few years back.

Yeah it makes a lot of sense for baseball.

just watched the game now, and that TD fudgeed me right in the pooper. I had a bet on the Pats with a -7.5 pt handicap, and I am obviously playing you. I liked him with 0 TDs and 1 intercept.

50 points is a very decent opening day for you.

Home/Away listing is because they list it as 

Steelers AT Patriots (I actually think it makes sense when written like this) :D

I'm starting to consider giving up Rodgers for a decent RB/WR option.
