was also a big fan of those guys. didn't get a chance to take ridley but i took smith at the top of the 7th round. i'm down 18 and he still has ravens D up so i'm probably gonna lose this week but hoping to see some stellar stuff from smith for the future
Yeah, I have a feeling that McGahee trade is going to end up blowing up in my face but I had to get some kind of insurance in case Demarco gets hurt.
I've been saying Torrey is in line for around a 1200/10 season for a few weeks now tho.
Well you were clued in before I was. I was late to the party on Torrey and showed even later on Ridley. In my last 6 drafts I own both Ridley and Torrey on every team and drafted them between rounds 5-7.
Now trading for Ridley is nearly impossible as you'll have to give up a kings ransom. Same will be said for Torrey after tonight.

Bengals are downright atrocious offensively and their line is already decimated or you'd have a real shot. Torrey in like for a 18-25 point night.
Also one thing I'd like to point out is Antonio Brown. While he's an excellent #2 WR in RL and will be very serviceable in fantasy circles he was being seriously overdrafted. I saw people taking him as early as the 3rd round and he quickly became a very sexy pick. While I still think he'll be good, the idea that he was going to come in and flirt with WR1 numbers is/was ridiculous. He's a possession WR that's mostly running intermediate routes and has no where near the upside of a lot of guys he was getting drafted over (Harvin, Nicks, Lloyd, Maclin, etc).
He's a guy I'd strongly consider selling (even though you're short selling) because he's still a sexy name and you can likely fetch a Ridley or a Torrey in return.
I'm being offered CJ Spiller for Garcon? Im pretty weak at RB. Should I do it?
PPR league
My team
Rivers | Locker
Foster | Ridley | Helu | Dwyer | Quiz
White | Green | Garcon | Titus | Collie (is he even worth hanging onto?)
Graham | Cook
I have waiver claims for Ogletree (Bess) and Morris (Thomas) but im #9 so I probably wont get either.
I would absolutely do that. Garcon's points this week came from an 80 yd touchdown. You cannot expect that at all every week. CJ Spiller should be really solid at least until Fjax is back (and maybe even after).

Couldn't agree more. Spiller is a great PPR back. You won't regret this trade unless Spiller gets hurt.
disagree about the long TD part. garcon did that a few times last year and that was with a crappy o-line and orlovsky and painter being his main QB's. now he has a guy with a huge arm to deliver the ball.
garcon only played one quarter and had over 100 yards with a TD. RGIII targeted him four times in that quarter. i expect a fairly big year from him.
so i say it's closer. a PPR league makes me lean towards spiller. he's a borderline RB1 as long as f jax is out
