Ryan - Choice wasn't on there, has been added. Generally I'm against late-week changes (for example, Jerome Harrison at 70 would rise substantially given the news on Jamal Lewis), but Choice should have been on there to begin with.

Jeremy and 43 - Lynch slips because it certainly looks like Fred Jackson is stealing carries, if not the starting job.

Jimbo - Wade was a fill-in because Quentin Lawrence got hurt. I like him, like his numbers, but I need to be a little more convinced he's going to be the Chiefs' possession guy before adding him to the list. Maybe after this week.

Duece - check the authors, the columns (i.e., Chop Block and Rest of Season Rankings) are written by 2 different writers with (obviously) 2 different opinions...so, just use your own common sense to make YOUR decision when there are varying data points - the same thing makes me crazy every week when Dorey's Wednesday Game Projections and Tuvey's Thursday Start/Bench List oppose each other, so I have to make a gut decision, which is usually the wrong one! LOL :)

To Scott - Is the Brees owner loaded at WR and rail thin at RB? Because that's the only conceivable reason I can see him taking this trade. VJax is a stud in the making, and your timing for this trade is lousy trying to trade Rodgers the week after a dud performance vs. the Bengals.

where is Tashard Choice or am I blind?

How is it that you recommend "chopping" cutting Lance Moore but holding Kevin Walter when on the Rest of the Season Rankings you have Moore listed as more valuable. What gives?

scott

Posted Sep 23, 2009 4:27pm EDT

Some care to rate this trade...not offered I am looking to offer.
Give up Aaron Rodger and Michael Turner for Brees and V Jack.
Would anyone offer this?

Housh for Smith NYG I wouldnt do cuz Housh has a nice playoff sked (wks 14-16)...so far anyway.

Jeremy

Really don't get Marshawn Lynch dropping like a rock?? He comes back next week! Also Kevin Walter is just getting healthy??? Don't get it.

Denis

Wow. San Diego's defense is ranked 6th.... they better start playing better defense

Posted Sep 23, 2009 9:50am EDT

Not sure its fair to drop Marshawn Lynch just because the Bills have been able to run the ball. Wouldnt that make him higher, or has it been said he has lost his job?

Rick

Posted Sep 23, 2009 9:31am EDT

Should I trade Housh for Steve Smith with NYG?

Jimbo
