I'm facing a dilemma in week 9 that I hope to address in advance. Currently 5-1 in a 12 team 1PPR league. My WRs are Antonio Brown, Megatron, & Maclin. Both Megatron & Maclin have week 9 byes. I was thinking of proposing a trade with a guy having a similar WR issue. He has Julio, TY, & Martavious Bryant. Julio & TY have week 10 byes.

I was thinking of proposing a 1 for 1 trade --- either Megatron or Maclin for TY. That way I could roll with TY and Brown week 9. He would then have Megatron or Maclin with M. Bryant week 10. Given this scenario, any thoughts of who I should offer for TY? I was trying to not involve my other roster spots. For what it's worth I have:

Rivers
Tannehill
M. Ingram
Lamar Miller
Carlos Hyde
Olsen
Barnidge
Josh Brown
Rams

I'm open to a completely different approach to deal with this, so feel frere to blow this strategy away. ;)

Idk but don't trade Megatron for TY. Megatron is worth way more. I have him in one league and just traded for him in another league before last week. His schedule is getting easier and I'm expecting Megatron like numbers. He played 3 of the best defenses in the league for 3 straight weeks being Arizona, Seattle and Denver and put 10+ points on all of them.

Detroit offense has sucked, but I think that was part of their opponents and not going deep to Megatron. They finally realized last week they need to throw deep shots to Calvin and look at the numbers he put up. Before last week they had only thrown 20+ yard balls to Calvin like 3 times or something like that all year.

People stress too much about bye weeks. I don't even look at that shite when I draft. Some people literally draft around bye weeks. If you have a good team and a good record, I wouldn't worry about this. Plug in whoever you got and hope for the best. If you have a bad record and need the win, you should probably trade. What's your record?
