Here's my line up:
Palmer, Eli, Rex, Edge, Boldin, Hines Ward (who I benched this week because I am an idiot), Fred Taylor, Jason Witte, Chargers D/ST, Falcons D/ST, Marvin Harrison, Robbie Gould, Heath Miller, Thomas Jones, and Mushin Muhammad. Seemed to be a good line up at the begining of the season, but now it's not getting it done...I know I need to trade a QB, but I can't decide which one and for whom. Can you help me out?

Plain and simple: Edge is underperforming because the Cards' O-Line can't block. Palmer is not the Palmer of last season. Taylor is not that good. Harrison is no longer Peyton's primary target.

So I'm trying to trade a QB and Edge for a RB and a good WR, I know a guy that has LJ, Kevin Jones, and Torry Holt...but his QBs are Farve and Big Ben... Also there is another guy who has Portis, Steven Jackson, Julius Jones, Rudi Johnson, and Roy Willimas. So which QB and Edge should I trade for which RB and WR? I know football just not fantasy football (after watching football for about ten years I finally got a fantasy team) PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I don't suffer the same affliction that you do.

I say get rid of him and get Warrick Dunn and a WR with good numbers. If the guys in your league aren't smart you could get a steal. BTW, what's your record and are you in a Yahoo league?

IDK... That's a sweet fantacy team... Carson Palmer or Eli Manning hooking up with Hines Ward... I don't see why that combination wouldn't work.

Don't keep a player like edge... just because he is edge..

I noticed in my league "Washington" i think RB from the Jets is projected to get 12 points and has more points this year than edge...

I say since the others are not likely to trade for edge... drop him, and get the highest rated RB there..


Also, I say stick with one QB... and once your best TE's team passes their bye week, drop your backup...

Stock up with the best players from WR and RB that are available for you to get..

and play them week to week.. it is hard to say really without seeing what all the other teams have..

if you wanted to copy and paste me a list of every teams roster... I would be willing to give you some players that might be sleepers..

Not that I don't appreciate the offer I'm just really lazy maybe I'll get around to it sooner or later.

You asked for help... You can not really expect anyone to "really" help without knowing what players are still out there.

Also, knowing the rosters of the other teams would help someone figure out who you should trade... and what to ask for in return....

But the first thing I would do is see if there is a "lower profile" name still out there to replace Edge... DO NOT keep him only because he once was good..

That O-Line in front of him is one of the worst I have seen play on the professional level... and his stats are proof of that...

Best of luck.

How is your team now?

I lost over the last 2 weeks to knock me out of the lead in both my leagues... So I was wonderin if your team ever turned the corner?
