I have a big problem. I just traded Jamal Lewis and Ahman Green for Willie Parker and Todd Heap. I love the trade but Willie is on bye this week and I can't drop Todd Heap because Alge Crumpler (my other TE) is on bye next week. I have to either start 3 RBs or 3 WRs. My other RBs are LT (definate start), Deuce, and Tatum Bell (on bye). Since Willie is on bye I can only start 2 RBs (LT and Deuce). My WRs are Marvin Harrison, TO, Stallworth, and Donald Driver. Marvin I start, Driver I start, but what if both TO and Stallworth are injured? Then I need another WR or RB. My question is who do I drop? TO, Stallworth, or Pittsburgh (I also have Cinci but Pitt is on bye this week). What do I do? Sorry so long!
Update:I have also been offered a trade.....TO for Roy Williams....should I take it?

I'd drop Pittsburgh, Cinci is just as good of a defense and you can just plug them in every week.
DOn't drop TO, if nothing else you can trade him. Here is what I would do. Drop Heap. Pick up whatever position you need for this week, then next week drop that player and grab another TE. There are enough TEs out there that somebody will be playing well enough to be a one week replacement. Look at Johnny GIlmore fromt eh bears, he's been in the end zone a couple times. TO, Stallworth and PItt can't just be dropped, trade them in nothing else.
Don't take the trade. I believe TO and Stallworth will both play this week (remember, Philly doesn't play until Monday). Out of the 2, I go with Stallworth versus GB because TO hasn't had enough play time with Bledsoe to be considered #1 receiver.
yes...take the Roy Williams trade
do NOT drop Pitt D even though they have a bye
do NOT drop Stallworth...he's a stud...wait til game time to make a decision on him, cause he may play...I played him last week...had 0 points from him (late game scratch) and still won for the day...he will be getting good numbers this year
You can not and should not drop any of those guys. I dislike TO as much as the next guy but he just has too much value. Stallworth is McNabbs new best buddy. And Pittsburgh is a really solid D that will get things done. If you were to drop any of them you would not see them for the remainder of the season. I know if i saw them come up on waivers they would be on my roster, I'd make room. Drop one of your TE to make room
Drop your D. I would possibly package a couple of RB's for a better Rb if you could.
And do not Trade TO for R Williams. TO ( I hate the dude ) but as long as he is on the field will get 100 and a touchdown. Roy Williams isnt that good.
You so scrooed!
Frankly, I'd drop Alge. I just don't see him producing any better than Heap, and don't feel any TE is worth a backup. Play Cincy this week (Pgh is at SD during Cincy's bye week anyway), TRADE Cincy after this week, ride Pgh's D the rest of the season no matter who they play (only real offense ahead of 'em is SD and Cincy in week 17), and pick up an Eric Johnson type for week 7.
Can you drop a backup K or QB?
Can you live with yourself if you ride Cincy's D out the rest of the year? They *almost* as good as Pgh, especially in producing turnovers, but you could then *almost* win your league....
I'd hang on to Donte. He's got a history of injuries, but Donovan's in love. You can see it in his eyes.
And, unless you're an Eagles or Niners fan, you can't drop TO. (And, if you were, you wouldn't have TO anyway!) He'll destroy an NFL team, but make any FF team a winner.
Regards!
P.S. Please give me your thoughts to my Rueben/Buck/M.Rob question on Yahoo.
Stallworth's a danger, again up QB and Compeating with R. Brown, and damage danger. Berrian is now splitting routes with M. Bradley, and his QB is a midget. Muhammad is a poss. receiver, it somewhat is sturdy specially type of scoring leagues, do not understand your specifics. on the top of the day, you should heavily weight strenth of time table right here, as maximum of those adult adult males are a '6 one, 0.5 dozen the different type of deal. sturdy success dude,
Yes do the trade its a rip-off for the other guy!!
There's a good chance TO will play, and if he does, you'll have nothing to worry about. You've got a great team!!
