Another sign of the quality of my team: I’m actually kinda jazzed about picking up RB/WR Danny Woodhead as a FA. NCAA Division II’s all-time leader in everything, he signed as a UFA with the Jets, was cut, and has now caught on with New England, which is where he belonged from the start. Belichick will find a role for the guy, this year or the next. ---

Of course, most of the guys who The Hood finds a role for nowadays become totally useless for fantasy purposes. ---

Sure, but considering that I cut Julius Jones to make room for Woodhead, the bar is set pretty low. (Basically, I’m thinking an upside of, say, Kevin Faulk +30%, but with a decent chance to actually hit that upside or something like it … or to at least be worth a long-term roster spot, even if mostly buried on my bench.) ---

Varlos almost bid on him! Anyway you can have him back for an RB. ---

If I only had the foresight to handcuff Slaton with Arian Foster last year my team might not be half bad. Gah. ---

Furt needs Henne and Ronnie Brown to put up a combined 26 points to beat Ellis Dee, otherwise he will retain the league lead. If Furt wins, I become the only undefeated. I actually have a shot at taking the #1 spot even if Ellis Dee wins if Moss and Bess have big days. I must ask though… why Furt did you start Darren Sproles over Rashard Mendenhall in your W/R flex? That… is very weird. I must say, Ellis Dee and I in the #1 and #2 slots was pretty unexpected. Although I’m not sure it’s not a fluke - our teams are much better this year, but probably not enough to keep up this pace. Retrovertigo needs 4 points out of Tom Brady to beat Warner’s brothers… seems pretty likely. Otherwise there aren’t really any matches that are undetermined. Incidentally, I hope I somehow keep RNATB out of the playoffs by winning the division, after all those objections to a finished-based division structure and gloating that he was going to keep our division locked down indefinitely 😛 ---

Hamlet continues to get screwed in this league. Even though he took a more traditional beating this week (at my hands), he’s still going to have, I think, the 2nd most points scored through 4 weeks, without a win to show for it. Also, Steve Smith 1.0 was carted off with an ankle injury. ---

Damn it Varlos, you managed to bid $1 and $2 more than me on the players I wanted. I don’t know why I was trying to be so stingy anyway, it’s not like someone is going to emerge in this league that’ll justify a $75 bid or something. Now I’m risking having another one of those silly weeks where I can’t find 2 RBs to field on a 25 man roster. Between that and you and I having top spots in several leagues together I think you’re going to be my nemesis this season. ---

I am mad $3 wasn’t enough to get Todd Heap back. I have mismanaged my team so bad this year – I might be starting a blank at TE this week! ---

I have a lot of trading chips on my bench I’d be willing to part with for a good TE. Make me an offer if you like someone? I would rather start some scrub on the WW this week than give up a ton of value so only fairish trades. ---

Truth be told, I’m not sure why I was being so stingy, either. I probably should have blown you out of the water, but I guess I did a good job estimating where the market for these guys would land. And maybe there more value to hanging on to FAAB$ than we think. I’m already seriously regretting blowing my whole wad on Brandon Jackson in the Auction league, and not just because he’s looking like a bust. ---

**Stringer** trades Ryan Torain to **RNATB** for Zach Miller. Torain is probably gonna be a beast now that I’m trading him away, but I am happy to get another top 10 TE. In other news Heath Miller (with Big Ben coming back!) is available for a WR with upside.
