I think you're placing too much value on your linebackers. For the most part you can easily replace them with a negligible difference in scoring. Lego's list seems to be the best choice. Peyton's Peyton but Romo is as solid as a backup qb gets and Norwood has huge potential in Atlanta.

If you get points for Pancakes, keep Jamaal Brown.

I might have to put more value on Norwood. The problem is, I'm going to lose my T3. I'm almost positive of it. I don't really have the cap room to bid with teams this year. I might even lose my T2. The only one I'm assured of keeping is T1 really. If I move Norwood into the T1 slot I could lose two starting linebackers in one season. That would make my starters Morrison, Vilma, Peterson, and James. Not horrible but ...

Crowell was a starter last year till he got hurt and he was kicking *** when he went down. The Bills love him too. There is no way he doesn't start. The only issue would be if for some reason they moved him to SLB and his production went in the terlet.

If you're not sold on Romo and you don't want him, and you don't expect to be able to keep your t2, then make him your t2 and norwood your t1. somebody will give you that 2nd round pick. pierce is your third, somebody gives you a pick for that. you can't make pierce your #1 over norwood and romo, though.

Romo is ****.

Vilma is **** in the 3-4, but when his rookie contract is up he'll move to a 4-3 defense. Keep him on the bench until then.

Norwood is your T1.

Pierce is your T2.

Crowell is your T3.

If you lose Pierce and Crowell, its not like you're coming away empty handed. You could take those picks and combine them to move up in the rookie draft to get either Patrick Willis or Paul Posluszny. On top of that, Peterson is coming back healthy next year. He was one of the best LBs in the league just a season ago. He'll be back to top form.

Your RBs suck and you need to find a way to add one of the top 4 backs (Peterson, Lynch, Irons, Pittman) in this year's draft and just pray one of them is a starter.

Trade Jared Allen while his value is high. He's facing a 4 game suspension next year I believe. Missing 4 games to start is going to make his entire season slower and ****tier, and on top of that he's looking to be traded. Get rid of that head ache while you can, maybe you can get Kam Wimbley to replace him there. He doubles as a DE and a LB.

I look at it in a pts-per-game issue. Henderson averaged what, 1 pt less per game than Pierce? I dunno your scoring, but in my IDPs he's about 15-20 pts behind. Obviously, nobody cares about Henderson, so you can leave him. Pierce is the name, and he'll draw the attention. You can swing a pick for him. Henderson broke top-20 last year and is only getting better. He'll be a great guy to keep around. I feel stupid saying this because I wasn't going to say anything about Henderson because he's a FA in our dynasty and I was gonna target him when FA begins and I drop Bruschi.

Is Fletcher retiring? In the meantime, he'll stay at SLB, and he won't produce that much. I guess you have a point about him, though, at least compared to Fujita. But not Henderson, definitely make Henderson a priority over anyone else, IMO. Even if he just duplicates what he did this year, Crowell have to take over for Fletcher AND play very well to equal or surpass that.

I think letting Romo is a huge mistake. I know you have Manning, but letting Romo hit FA without even tendering him is stupid. Remember last year when Drew Bledsoe was the 6th or 7th QB drafted? Romo is going to have all the same weapons, Witten, Crayton, T.O., Glenn...he won't be a 1rst-time starter anymore. Their D is going to be giving them the ball much more consistently. You won't get him back if you let him hit FA. I definitely think he's the clear #1 tender. If you want Pierce to be your #2, that's fine, but with him I really feel that I'd be hoping somebody gives me the draft pick. There will be some great value in this year's 3rd round rookie...guys like Irons and Pittman. I would make him the #3 tender hoping somebody sends me that draft pick. If not, he's still on your team, and you're underpaying your top-ten LB.

Norwood is obvious.

I would make it a subtle priority to get Henderson back on the team, over any of your other true FA LBs. And Asomugha should be your clear CB choice. He's a potential Champ Bailey/Ronde Barber type guy once they figure out how to play the game of football in Oakland.

There was a one point a week difference in Crowell and Henderson in our league as well. I didn’t realize they were that close. I’m going to have to look into Henderson. Isn’t Greenway supposed to replace him though?

Fletcher is a UFA and Buffalo isn’t expecting him back. Crowell played the weak side last year not the SLB, and he excelled there. Moving inside, if it happens, could make him top five.

Last season Bledsoe was given the T3 designation and nobody bid on him. If Bledsoe didn’t draw interest at all I’m thinking Romo will draw minimal interest this year. What I would like to do is trade Romo for a pick if I can. I feel good with Manning and Kitna right now and I plan on maybe taking Quinn with my second first rounder (I have the #1 and #8 overall picks in our rookie draft). Manning, Quinn, and Kitna.

Asomugha is another after thought. I wasn’t even considering bringing him back. Tackles are huge and he makes like 2 every three weeks. He’s never around the ball. You like him that much?

If you line up:

Peterson
Morrison
Vilma
Henderson

You're really not doing that bad. I say you take the risk making Pierce your #3. You either keep him or get a 3rd round pick. Not bad either way. Crowell and Henderson should be immediate FA concerns.

JPBroncsAW · 02-25-2007, 08:19 PM

tre, why the emphasis on the linebackers? Victor Hobson averaged just as many points as Crowell last year. Pierce should be the seconds or third pick and that's it.

We're on the same page. I've already moved up to #1 overall and am taking Peterson. Portis, Bush, Peterson, Jordan, White, and Norwood is far from **** ...

Trade Allen now ... hmm. Good idea actually. Your third one since I've known you.

How about trade Romo for a third if I can (if I can't that should say something about his value) and then make my restrictions:

1 Norwood
2 Pierce
3 Crowell

And then bring back Ashamooogamooga and Henderson if possible?

Linebackers are the theird highest scoring position in the league. You HAVE to have a good group to win in this league. You have to. Granted it's easier to field a good group than it is for say running backs, but you can't ignore the importance.
