Hoping Sanders can do enough to earn me a W. Thought you were going to run away with it before the late games. Moreno played well but Gore is struggling albeit against a very strong D last night.
 
right where I should be after a couple of weeks. /1st Place


I find the 'Current Projection' standings a little funny. FoG is 2-0, but projections still have him losing 10 out of the next 11 games and finishing last. Moose is the opposite, started 0-2, but projected to win 10 of the next 11.

Listening to A.I projection for anything that evolves 'fantasy' should be as funny as hearing so called experts predict who to start and who to sit. It's a guessing game folks, hopefully educated, but no one knows what actually going to happen. They told you guys Adrian Peterson wasn't worth drafting last year coming off a late season ACL... What happened? It told you guys that I wouldn't win one game this year... What happened! It's the funny papers, and should be treated as such. :hilarious:

BREAKING NEWS

Cleveland Browns GM Michael Lombardi, Formely of the NFL Network, best known for passing on drafting Hall of Fame DT Warren Sapp has TRADED Blu Chip RB Trent Richardson to the Indianapolis Colts for a 2014 1st Round Pick. Obviously this is an attempt to "TANK FOR TEDDY" (Teddy Bridgewater QB Louisville) but for Cleveland fans that had any aspiration for a run this year, this has to be devasting. With Hoyer, set to start at QB and now 2 first round picks the Browns are already eyeing next year's possibilities.

My Whodey brother, Geoff aka FanOfGaming, like all Bengals fans is very smart. And was able to swoope in and pick up former Hurricanes and Broncos RB Willis McGahee, who is currently in Cleveland taking a physical as I type, before I could get my hands on him. Until my next report, this is Bluprint with HDNSports News, saying Fantasy is better than Reality! Piece!! :scat:

New regimes usually mean new QB's which is expected. But seeing a star RB that the team had to trade up to acquire being sent away after 18 games almost never happens. Ironically, the Colts traded a young 'now' hall of fame RB named Marshall Faulk to the Rams which was just as shocking then as the T-Rich move that happenned today.

In order for this trade to make any since, Cleveland must be targeting atleast three 2014 prospects.

- QB Teddy Bridgewater, Louisville
- DE Jadeveon Clowney, South Carolina
- ???

It's obvious they are trying to "TANK FOR TEDDY" but their is no guarentee that they could move up to the 1st pick if they don't finish last. Jacksonville is my projected team to own the #1 pick, and seeing that the Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater is from Florida, their is no way the Jags pass on him.

Say if they finish with the 3rd pick overall, Bridgewater & Clowney is gone by the time they pick and this whole thing is an EPIC FAIL seeing that they threw away the season and their best offensive player in Trent Richardson to gain position. Where do they go??? Do they reach that high for:

- QB Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M
- QB Brett Hundley, UCLA (Sophmore/RS/May stay in school)
- QB Sammy Morris, Miami (FL)
- QB David Fales, San Jose State
- QB Marcus Mariota, Oregon

Manziel is the only other name, that makes since but he has the intangibles but lacks the measurables that would warrant that pick (See Drew Brees - 2nd Round Pick, and Russell Wilson - 3rd Round Pick as evidence). The other QBs mentioned above are could B's but you don't wrist a lottery pick on a could B, I forgot we are talking about Mike Lombardi and the Browns, so who knows.

Best case scenario if the Browns gets the 2nd overall, is to draft South Carolina DE Jadeveon Clowney and hope that the other QB they have to be considering at this point is still there.

#TANK4TEDDY :D
 
obviously Cleveland has seen enough of Trent Richardson to know they don't want him on their team. Whether he seemed lazy or the 3.5 clip he's been producing at, something about him put the Browns off and getting a 1st round pick probably sounded really great to management.

So now, even if the Brown don't "win" the 1st overall pick, they'll have the draft picks to package a potential trade for the top QB in next year's draft.

It's a really good move for the Browns, imo.


remember this though, while Jacksonville is trying to win games. The Browns are starting Brian Hoyer at QB and would rather run a guy who was on the couch last weekend than last year's 3rd overall pick.

Marshall wasn't "young" when the Colts traded him. Faulk was a rookie in 1994, traded in 1999. By RB standards he had a lot of tire wear. They were also targeting Edgerrin James in the draft. The Colts liked Edgerrin a lot.

Michael Lombardi, has never been a fan of taking running backs that high in the draft. I remember when Lombardi was covering the Draft on NFL Network, he went on record saying, the Trent Richardson pick was a reach by the Browns. So maybe he never wanted T-Rich there to begin with.

I think Trent Richardson will be to Andrew Luck what Edgerrin James was to Peyton Manning. He is scheme diversed, a three down back, a little overrated, but definitely a RB1. Only time will tell if this was a good or bad move. But ever since Art left town with "The Real Cleveland Browns aka The Baltimore Ravens" the Dawg Pound seem to be a cursed as fan base. From Earnest Byner to Lebron James, key players who leave Cleveland usually end up champions. I would bet on the Colts, and I would bet on Trent Richardson.

Do your homework first.

Michael Lombardi -

"Here are 10 things that I believe to be true in this week's draft:

1. I believe the safest pick in the draft -- beyond Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III -- is Alabama running back Trent Richardson. He's a blue-chip player and has all the skills to quickly establish himself as a top-five player at his position. Forget the nonsense about not taking backs early -- everyone would love the chance to get this guy."

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d82885edd/article/nfl-draft-forecast-chandler-jones-up-courtney-upshaw-down

And to say a 22 year old RB who has a lousy o-line and Brandon weeden to boot has a 3.5 ypc is a miminimalist argument. He deals with 8 in the box every game. Not many rb's are successful against that. He played like half of last year with broken ribs and ONLY has 31 carries in 2 games. That's just nuts. Look at his game film and tell me he's not special. Browns are trying to save face. Unsteady for teddy 2013 has begun. T-Rich is going to be fine long term. Colts have o-line issues as well but he won't be seeing 8 in a box.

I could've been wrong, but actions speak louder than words. He traded his quote, blu chip safest player outside of Luck & Rg3 that any team would love to have, in-quote. It's true having even a Elite RB doesn't equal championship, if it did the Vikings wouldn't be where they are, but with that said, this trade is a signal that they're playing for next year and how do you sale that to your fan base.

On the other hand, the Browns have also set themselves up to look like genius if this works out. Starting QB Brian Hoyer is a strategic play 'regardless' if he doesn't workout or if he does, meaning if he turns out to be brilliant they have their quarterback or if he helps to tank the team they will be in a better position to get 'their' QB. Make no mistake about it Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater is the treasure but its no guarantee the Browns will beat out Jacksonville to be that bad and land the #1 Overall Pick.

They have to have more QB prospects in mind but if they can get Jadeveon Clowney they will happily do that if Teddy B. is gone. The Colts offensive is almost a mirror image of when Marvin Harrison was doing his thing while Peyton and Edgerrin were running those awesome HB Strecth's! I would definately trade for Trent Richardson in the HDN Fantasy League even with a short week and the matchup against the Niners, so whoever has T-Rich and is looking to move him like Browns did we can make a blockbuster trade playa! :D

a huge week 4 match up between FOG & I. #cantwait


and on the Trent Richardson front, if the guy is soooo good, a bad o-line is no excuse for having a 3.5 YPC average. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Browns have Joe Thomas, one of the best o-lineman in the NFL. The Browns o-line can't be that bad when they have a player that good.

You guys might believe in Richardson, but what he's done in the NFL so far isn't anything to praise him for.

Ahmad Bradshaw ran like a man on Sunday whereas TR put up 2.7 per carry.

Trent was a blue chip prospect, his speed & size is ideal, but that stuff doesn't mean a thing if he doesn't have vision.

The writing is on the wall, a season after the Browns used the 3rd overall pick on him, they traded him for a 1st round pick to a playoff team. The Browns don't make that trade if they think Trent is a special talent.
