A lost cause?
When do you give up hope on a league? I've started out 0-4 in a league, and I just don't see how there's any hope for the rest of the season. Going into the past weekend, there was one other 0-3 team in our league. Guess who they beat this weekend? I'll post my team after the jump.
QB - R. Fitzpatrick
WR - H. Nicks
WR - L. Moore
RB - A. Peterson
RB - W. McGahee
TE - F. Davis
W/R/T - A. Brown (Pit)
BN - A. Gates
BN - P. Burress
BN - J. Flacco
BN - N. Washington
BN - M. Bush
BN - K. Hunter
K - M. Crosby
DEF - NO
D - L. Timmons
DB - T. Polamalu
DL - J. Pierre-Paul
It's a PPR league, .5 per reception. Also some other interesting scoring...
Passing: 50 yds/point
Passing TDs: 6 pts
INTS: -2 pts
Sacks: -1
Rushing/Receiving: 20 yds/point
Receptions: .5 pts
Fumbles: -2 pts
I left 12.05 points on the bench with Michael Bush, but besides that I've played the best options that I've had each week. Really don't see where I could make a move with the roster that I have. Any thoughts?

too early
to give up especially with all the injuries happening every week…..you can win your next 4 and be right in the mix…..bye weeks start this week, so you might get lucky where your opponents best player sits while yours has a monster game.

Thanks for the feedback
I hate that I had to autodraft for this team. My week 1 team had Ochocinco, Jonathan Stewart, and Marshawn Lynch all starting. I got the shaft with the autodraft.

I've tried!
This is one of those leagues where people aren’t very interested in trading.

Well, your team is quite bad
I’m trying to figure out the order of your draft, obviously AP was your first pick, then…Hakeem Nicks? Then who in the 3rd round? Did you reach that far for Gates? After that, well, I can’t say you have a player that I would have picked in the 4th round, and you’ve got at least 5 players that were undrafted (or still unowned) in my competitive league.
I would say make a trade to improve, but you have already said that there isn’t much trading in this league, and I don’t really see where you have a surplus of talent that you could trade from. Your best trading chip at this point is Ryan Fitzpatrick, and that leaves you with Flacco and nobody at QB, but you need an upgrade at both RB and WR, so if you can move a hot Fitzpatrick for that, do it. You’re not winning now as it is, so can it really get worse?
But, yeah, I wouldn’t have a whole ton of optimism for this team, just try to stay ahead of everyone on the waiver wire and hope for a miracle.

Had to autodraft, unfortunately
I went 2nd. SMH.
Here’s how it went down:
1 Adrian Peterson (Min - RB)
2. Hakeem Nicks (NYG - WR)
3 Peyton Manning (Ind - QB)
4 Antonio Gates (SD - TE)
5 DeAngelo Williams (Car - RB)
6 Marshawn Lynch (Sea - RB)
7 Chad Ochocinco (NE - WR)
8 New Orleans (NO - DEF)
9 Mason Crosby (GB - K)
10 LaRon Landry (Was - S)
11 Eric Berry (KC - S)
12 William Hayes (Ten - DE)
13 Cedric Benson (Cin - RB)
14 Michael Bush (Oak - RB)
15 Pierre Garcon (Ind - WR)
16 Ryan Fitzpatrick (Buf - QB)
17 David Buehler (Dal - K)
18 Yeremiah Bell (Mia - S)
It makes me want to throw up just looking at that. Really wish Yahoo let you add some rules for autodrafting (only draft 1 defense, only draft 1 kicker, do not draft IDP before x round, etc.).

Oof
In a 10-team league this roster would probably force me to stop paying attention. Sorry, that’s just rough.
by pooptallica on Oct 6, 2025 1:36 AM EDT up reply actions
Update: A WIN!
Finally got my first win of the season thanks to AP, Mason Crosby (yes, a kicker was my second highest scorer), Hakeem Nicks, and Jason-Pierre Paul (yes, an IDP was my fourth highest scorer). 106.46 - 88.74 victory.
