Alfred Morris is expected to start Sunday at Atlanta. Rod Smith will be the No. 2 and a significant part of the game plan. Darren McFadden should also be active as the team's No. 3 RB

Reports last week indicated the plan is Alfred --> Rod --> DMC. Alf as the lead dog, Rod on 3rd downs, McFadden spelling Alf.

I didn't get Alf in either league. Here's to him hitting a brick wall.

Sounds like he's suspended until that appeal can be heard. So minimum of 4 game suspension upcoming

So if he wins the appeal, he was screwed for four games. The courts have absolutely fricked up this process

Wow. Not saying he’s innocent or anything, but the way the NFL has handled this is so damn shady. Reason 835 why Goodell is (has) ruining the NFL.

Like I mentioned before....serving his suspension while waiting for a trial date to fight the suspension? Messed up.

Even if he wins he will have missed the games...

He should have thought of that while he assaulted women that don't know how to keep their mouth shut.

I just offered the zeke owner Alfred Morris, McFadden and Baldwin for Carson Wentz. Standard scoring.

Baldwin would be a good upgrade for him at receiver and if one of those running backs can come close to zeke's production he will be better than how he stands now. I don't know that he'd be willing to part with Wentz since he just lost zeke, but thought I would give it a shot. It does improve my team more than his though.

We are tied for first place. I've got mariota.

Dude, that's an awful trade for you. Seriously redact that immediately.

Baldwin is easily the best player in the deal by far.

My other receivers are

Tyreek hill
Golden tate
Sterling shepard
Corey Davis
Josh Gordon

I don't think I'm losing that much production in Baldwin and I'm gaining over 10 ppg in Wentz over mariota. I likely won't be playing either Morris or McFadden over my starting RB Gordon and Kamara.

My starters would be
Wentz
Gordon
Kamara
Tyreek
Tate
Shepard/Davis
Kelce

I like that lineup.

I could swap tate for Baldwin, but he's losing like 120 something points on the season in Wentz. If my 3rd receiver only averages 5 ppg I'm still improving based on this year's stats.

Baldwin >>> your flex options

Plus, you are making your chief opponent too strong. You do you, but that's awful

I went ahead and canceled it to think about it. I really don't think I'm making his team any better. Baldwin is averaging less than 10 per game and he has 3 receivers that are about that same average. He has Cutler starting this week with Wentz on a bye, that's a 15 ppg differential.

My flex should still be able to put up at least 5 per game and Wentz is putting up more than 10 points per game than mariota.

We are essentially trading Baldwin for Wentz, in a world where Elliot doesn't enjoy beating up women. He's gaining depth but losing the #2 QB in the league. The only reason I think he would go for it is because of the zeke suspension. So he's losing points and I'm gaining them. Just depends on how much he values Wentz.

I think he would instantly accept. I don't like to pay for a qb.

I'm a good QB away from being the top scorer.

I don't think he would take the trade if I only offered Morris and McFadden.

Eta: I swapped out tate for Baldwin and sent the offer.
