Gillislee is available in my league. Should I drop either Philip River's (backup qb) or Rudolph (backup te) to pick him up? Gillislee would not be starting for me, just potential trade bait.

Yes. Rivers.

Hope you picked him up

I have hunt. Opponent has Brady.

Picked up Gillislee but didn't start him. I'm hoping to package him with one of my receivers to upgrade at WR. Possibly Gillislee and D Thomas for a WR1.

12-man PPR League (QB TD's = 4pts) other than that standard PPR:

QB: Cam Newton
RB: M. Lynch
RB: Abdullah
WR: M. Thomas
WR: A. Cooper
TE: M. Bennett
Flex: L. Fitzgerald
D/ST: Panthers
K: week-to-week

Bench:
E. Decker
J. Matthews
E. Lacy
M. Lee
T. Lockett
A. Dalton
T. Yeldon

Pretty solid squad there.

You're WR depth may be an issue but that's inly because I'm not big on any of your bench WRs. Although you've got some room to flip one of the RBs for some WR help if need be.

Good team though

Thanks, I did deviate my draft "plan" a bit when I picked Cam a little to early. I feel like he could have been on the board a bit longer. I could have picked a good bench WR with that pick, but I work the waiver pretty well and usually find gems to trade.

Also, don't carry 2 QBs if you don't start 2 QBs.

It's just a wasted roster spot. If indeed your QB gets hurt then there should be someone on the WW to pick up.

I see this a lot and just think it's pointless.

12 team league, 5 points per 5 receptions.
# of starters at each position and likely everyday starters/rotation
2 QB- Mariota, Winston, Deshaun Watson
2 RB- Elliott, Doug Martin, CJ Anderson, Thomas Rawls, Joe Mixon, D'onta Foreman
3 WR- Antonio Brown, Davante Adams, Tyrell Williams, Cooper Kupp, Zay Jones, Doctson, R Matthews
2 TE- Gronk, Ebron, Engram (dropped for Winston Week 1 replacement)
2 FLEX
1 K- Nick Folk
1 D/ST- Eagles
21 man roster

Now that Elliott will likely play most of the season, I've been getting trade offers.

Lynch/Olsen is the best offer so far, but that isn't enough. Would a Elliott/Adams for Lynch/Olsen/Doug Baldwin counter offer be worth it? I like the idea of a Gronk/Olsen duo at TE in a 2 TE league. That could give me a huge advantage over the rest of the league. I'm not sold on Adams either, so Baldwin could be a nice upgrade at WR. Any thoughts?

If I can make this one work, I have an Eric Ebron for Corey Davis trade in the works, Hoping I can pick up Engram as the backup off waivers after Sunday.

So I see Cameron Brate just got dropped in our league (probably due to not playing this week). I'm currently carrying Eifert and Doyle but wondering if Brate is any better than either one of them.

Thoughts?

My new starting lineup 0.5 ppr 10 team league:

QB: Cousins
RB: L Bell, Elliott, Lynch, Cohen, D Henry, Rawls
WR: Mike Evans, M Thomas, D Thomas, T Williams(LAC)
TE: Rudolph

After the draft I picked up Thielen and Gillislee both as free agents, and just flipped them for Mike Evans.

You win. I'm one accepted trade (won't be in effect until after this weekend) from a filthy lineup as well.
