OK guys, I'll probably start a thread and I imagine it will be kinda hard for you guys to answer since we have this little MBBRL going, but I need a really deep sleeper, probably a RB and somebody we wouldn't normally be looking at. Can be a receiver too since I'm pretty well banged up everywhere. Here is my team, I'll leave out Hawkeye Peirce and Trapper John.........

QB Matthew Stafford
QB Matt Cassell (not for long though, he go bye bye)
RB Arian Foster
RB James Starks (really think on another team he could be a legit high end #2, but not on this team)
RB Ben Tate (might have to start him this week)
RB Daniel Thomas (this kid is frustrating as all hell, and now he let Reggie Bush get his foot back in the door, not sure he still has any value)
RB Peyton Hillis (Whatever)
WR Roddy White (I actually think Julio's breakout might actually help him in the long run)
WR Wes Welker
WR Jon Baldwin
WR Greg Little (time to cut bait)
WR Miles Austin
WR Hakeem Nicks
TE Jimmy Graham
K I. Rem. Embered   (the guy from the Chargers)
D Eagles

So here is the deal............we have blind biddin waivers and a certain somebody that we all know and love is out of money, so I won't get any of the good ones this week (Robinson, Ivory, Bennett, etc.) Any suggestions are welcome.

I'd roll with Tate; they seem pretty serious about keeping him involved. After that I'd go with Kendall Hunter, and the deep sleeper would be Kevin Smith, who's back with the Lions and is still very young, rested, and presumably healed. And if any of those speedy young receivers for Oakland are out there, I'd grab one.

The MBBRL playoff race:

Div Leader 1: one4 (7-2, 948 points for)
Can effectively clinch the division this week by securing a four-game lead if he wins and Foot loses, given his 150+ point advantage

Div Leader 2: DUB (7-2, 906 points for)
A two-game lead, but still two very solid teams to contend with in Sam and Lefty

Div Leader 3: Boomer (6-3, 876 points for)
A one-game lead over Scape and Fuzzies, and they're all close points-wise

Wild Card: Scape (5-4, 902 points for)
Sam - 5-4, only 37 points out
Fuzzies - 5-4, only 39 points out
Lefty - one game back of Scape, but 29 points better than Scape

Long way to go:
Foot - one game back of three teams for the wild card, but a whopping 137 points back
wiwhite, Duff, Joe - two games back and way behind in points (but not as far behind as Foot)

Still kicking:
Treff is now within three games of the wild card with five to go, with a steep difference in points.... He might still make it if he wins all his remaining games by big margins, and one4, DUB and Boomer keep beating the teams in front of him.


Big games this week
With a victory, one4 can knock Scapegoat out of the wild card lead and maybe seal his division
Treff can either: a) help everybody out by taking down No-Luck Lefty, or b) lose and be eliminated from playoff contention

Not to worry. Our benches are kinda small to go carrying the Kevin Smiths of the world.

Funny you should say that Will as in week 5 I started a poll in this league to see if we should add an I.R. spot to our rosters as we had allot of guys with injury problems at that time and really was feeling like the league could use it after looking at some of the line ups being put in(we start 10 and have 6 on the bench). How many guys did I have injured at that time? Miles Austin(who was slated to be back that week) and Daniel Thomas (who it was looking like he would be good to go). Of course it got shot down.............lol.
Sam
PS. Now I'm the guy who will be putting in shotty line ups till my guys get healthy. My motto is gonna be "Just one more win till playoffs"!
