Default Dismal Performance ... so far!

Matt Schaub, Hou [QB]
Maurice Jones-Drew, Jac [RB]
Jahvid Best, Det [RB]
Daniel Thomas, Mia [RB/WR]
Hakeem Nicks, NYG [WR]
Santonio Holmes, NYJ [WR]
Jimmy Graham, NO [TE]
Steelers D/ST [D/ST]
Neil Rackers, Hou [K]

BENCH
Matt Ryan, Atl [QB]
Santana Moss, Wsh [WR]
Robbie Gould, Chi [K]
Kyle Orton, Den [QB] (pending waiver for Curtis Painter, IND [QB])
Lance Kendricks, StL [TE]
Eric Decker, Den [WR] (pending waiver for James Jones, GB [WR])
Ryan Grant, GB [RB]
Dexter McCluster, KC [RB/WR] (pending waiver for Jackie Battle, KC [RB])
Isaac Redman, Pit [RB]

And I just got this trade proposal:

Hakeem Nicks, NYG [WR] for Ahmad Bradshaw, NYG [RB]

Needing some advice and desperate and I am facing a 1 - 4 start. The top four teams in the lead have a PF of 638.3, 566.9, 540.3 and 632.2 [respectively] and I am sitting at only 477.7.

Thoughts first of all on the team and second of all on the trade proposal? Thanks for any advice!

Daniel Thomas, Mia [RB/WR]
Hakeem Nicks, NYG [WR] do the trade
Santonio Holmes, NYJ [WR] Too bad he is stuck with Sanchez throwing to him
Jimmy Graham, NO [TE] ok
Steelers D/ST [D/ST] good
Neil Rackers, Hou [K] bench

BENCH
Matt Ryan, Atl [QB] OK
Santana Moss, Wsh [WR]
Robbie Gould, Chi [K] OK - might even start as I expect to see many FG's in the future.
Kyle Orton, Den [QB] (pending waiver for Curtis Painter, IND [QB]) good move
Lance Kendricks, StL [TE]
Eric Decker, Den [WR] (pending waiver for James Jones, GB [WR]) I like Decker's upside, I would have kept him
Ryan Grant, GB [RB] fading
Dexter McCluster, KC [RB/WR] (pending waiver for Jackie Battle, KC [RB]) good
Isaac Redman, Pit [RB] watch Mendenhall injury and/or production

And I just got this trade proposal:

Hakeem Nicks, NYG [WR] for Ahmad Bradshaw, NYG [RB] I would take the trade and put Decker in there or trade for another WR

With bye weeks playing a big part, I would try to find teams that are desperate at a key position and try to offer a trade that gives you a decent upgrade in a position. Your team right now is in trouble.

Also, check the waivers daily. Some people because of byes have to waive someone they don't want to waive, hoping that no one will notice and then reaquire the following week. Might find an upgrade out there.

Do you think Decker still has the upside he had with Orton, with Tebow at the helm?

IMO Decker has upside regardless of the QB....but especially one who may need to depend on TEs more than most.............not that Decker is a traditional TE, but Tebow ain't no traditional QB either

Ok. Well just changed the waiver from dropping Eric Decker to dropping Lance Kendricks. Also changed addition from James Jones to Steve Breaston.

Just hoping somebody else doesn't pickup Kendricks, though I don't know why they would with his crappy numbers.

I am definitely a homer, BUT, I am anticipating Duane Bowe getting more attention [see last week] and therefore freeing up Breaston [see last week].
