made my first trade for the year, i offered up Calvin Johnson in return for Arian Foster...

could bite me in the bum :-\ i already have R.White and M.Austin as WR's whereas my RB's were J.Charles, F.Jones and S.Greene...

i saw we all got burned by Blount except G :P

Yes, managed to avoid him but the only reason I'm in front is my savvy Steve Smith pick  8)

[gwilliams]

I was 15-6.

Looks like you've got the best record for week 1. Good work.

Don't forget to renegotiate your player salaries if they've gone down in price. It will increase your available salary cap. My understanding of the rules is that if you don't then you just get market value for them (and no increase to your available cap)

is there a way u can negotiate 1 players salary?

bcos i hava few id like to pay less for but Vick instance went up near $3 which would offset the loss on others :-\

im still drafting now :P just got CJ2 at 9 and Arian at 11 :D ppl r hype on pinching the win for week one instead of building talent...

It will only negotiate players who have gone down in value but you can't choose which players. All of them will get renegotiated.

It's a bit confusing but after re-reading the rules it sort of makes sense to only renegotiate the players salaries if you intend to keep them on your roster but want to use their value decrease in your salary cap when you trade other players. Otherwise when you sell them you just get whatever you paid for them (regardless of whether they go up or down in value).

So ignore what I said previously  ::)

[RiOtChEsS]

yeah thats how i interpreted it which is why i went with Vick he has been rusty and i thought i could underpay him :P

[8-6 Suited]

I just sold and upgraded my nuff nuff purchases to start with. :P

Okay just reviewing this for my own piece of mind.

My Welker for His Dallas Clark and Moreno. I say no. Moreno is hurt and looking like a bust and I'm really down on Clark until Collins proves himself.

Do I outright reject him or counter him and see if he'll slip Tolbert my way? I have no problem taking Clark cause Collins is eventually going to get it. Moreno's the deal breaker to me. By the way if it matters I have Graham as my TE in this league

[8-6 Suited]

I'd say no. Welker will always get a lot of the ball.

[RiOtChEsS]

I'd say no. Welker will always get a lot of the ball.

definite not imo... Welker was a beast prior to that horrendous knee injury and i rekn this year he catches 100+ balls and 7 TDs

[RiOtChEsS]

thought id get savvy with Cam Newton's monster game and get him off waivers in the leagues im strong at QB...

so that i could pawn him off to those weak at QB and strengthen weaknesses elsewhere, got Santana Moss for him in one league already 8)

[BratPack]

Thought about Newton cause I'm weak in one league....settled on Fitzpatrick instead

In my latest draft. I have the 3 headed monster. Rivers, Stafford and I jumped on Kolb in the last round. Hoping he has a big game in the next couple so I can on sell him to teams lacking in depth
