I know everyone's in their leagues and we have several different threads out and about.  This is just a thread I thought I'd start for people to discuss sleepers, disappointments, strategies and thoughts throughout the season.

I made several shifts since the original draft.  I let go of Shonn Greene in order to pick up the Saints Defense and shifted the Dolphins Defense to the bench.  This week the Saints play the Lions and I felt that this could be a good opportunity to get some points while the Dolphins may struggle against Atlanta.

I was also surprised to hear that Cadillac Williams was named the starting running back for Tampa Bay.  He had gone undrafted, and I guess I was the first to notice that no one picked him up.  I moved Derrick Ward to the Bench but had to drop someone to make room....I'm so stacked at WR right now I decided to let go of Gonzalez from Indy.  I really need to increase my RB spot - if I lose one to injury I could be in a lot of trouble.

Anyone else making last day shifts before tomorrow's game?

Dude, You are crazy for letting go of Gonzalez.  He may turn out to be the number 1 receiver in Indy.< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall;" id="jsProxy" ="">

I already have Moss, Boldin, Jackon, and Hester starting.  I could let go of Earl Bennett from my bench but everyone on ESPN talks about how big of a sleeper he is...I needed to make room somewhere.

I think everyone is solid at WR but me right now, so the likelihood of Gonzalez getting picked up in FA is unlikely. 

Plus I think Reggie Wayne will be the No. 1 this year over Gonzalez...don't you?  We'll see I guess...

Made my biggest move so far this season....picked up Hou QB Schaub from FA and benched Brady.  Also picked up TE Celek from Philly, although Olsen finally made a few points of his own while on my bench.
Destroyed my opponent to go 2-1 thanks to a big outting by MJD scoring 32 as well as Ravens on D and Schaub also scoring very well.

After Brady struggled horribly last week leading to me being destroyd, my team appears to be more well rounded now after some free agency moves.  Starting team is as follows:
QBMatt Schaub, Hou QB» L 24-3126
RBMaurice Jones-Drew, Jac RB  P» W 31-2432
RBDerrick Ward, TB RB» L 0-240
RB/WRDevery Henderson, NO WR» W 27-74
WRRandy Moss, NE WR  P» W 26-1011
WRAnquan Boldin, Ari WR  P» L 10-3114
WR/TEDeSean Jackson, Phi WR  P» W 34-1421
TEBrent Celek, Phi TE» W 34-1416
D/STRavens D/ST, Bal D/ST» W 34-321
KNeil Rackers, Ari K

Brady's numbers will go up when Wes Welker gets back from injury. His underneath routes are vital to New Englands short passing game. The Pats will lean more on the rush this year with their stable of running backs. Brady's numbers will be good just not as gaudy as in the past.

For next week i actually like Brady even against the Ravens. The Ravens d is solid against the run and New England will be forced to air it out and attack the tough Baltimore secondary. The Texans are facing the Raiders who have little run defense but a solid secondary. Slaton could have a big day, but Asomunga will make the day miserable for Andre Johnson.

I'll have to consider that.....I def would've started Schaub without blinking against the Raiders, but I'll think about it.

I'm surprised to have gone 2-1 in my first three games without Lynch.  Hoping that adding him to my lineup since his suspension is over will make me even stronger.

With two games left in the regular season I'm sitting 4/8 with top 4 making playoffs.

Big call I have to make for tomorrow:
Jamal Lewis (Cle RB) who I picked up in FA as a potential spot start against Detroit this week. He has no TD this season but did put up a 117 yards against the Bills weak run defense.  He's the only guy the browns seem to have...
 Sims Walker (Jag WR) against the Bills, may seem crazy to sit him but MJD is expected to go off on the Bills terrible run D.  Do you think this will spell for extra guys in the box which would open MSW up? Right now I'm leaning towards sitting him as I think MJD is gonna run all over the field.
Greg Olsen (Bears TE) starting Celek as TE, but thinking about putting Olsen in WR/TE flex spot.  Eagles are really weak against tightends, and Olsen seems to be the only bright spot for the Bears receiving corps.

I am starting 2 of the 3 - who do I sit? Right now I have MSW sitting....thoughts? Good luck to everyone tomorrow!
