I joined a public league draft with the draft this morning and I missed it. 

Needless to say, I already have 3 waiver requests in, but I'd like your input. 

[hunt]

not bad.
but you might wanna move harrison into the starting lineup.
...and you could use a wr to replace steve smith...and maybe some rb depth....but not a bad team.

[troyhstewart]

that was my error, I copied it after I tried to bench Smith.

I have 3 waiver requests already in, one for RB depth, and for 2 WRs, one to replace smith.

[MURP]

anytime you have Marvin Harrison on your bench, your doing well. 

[RomeyRome]

Bulger and Maddox?

[troyhstewart]

As an update, my team sucks. I had a trade fail to go through that would have gone against conventional thinking, but would have upgraded my WR and QB. I hate Bulger so bad I'm starting Roethlisberger this week. 

Here are your      raging ballerinas

Bulger is 3rd in the NFL in yards, has 4 TD passes, one TD rushing, and only 2 INTs.

He may not be McNabb or Manningess, but he's doing a solid job fantasy wise.  I picked him in the 5th round of our draft and he's done me very well in terms of being a great value pick in round 5.

As for your team, it's just too weak in the WR department IMO.  This is the year of the WRs afterall   In the top 16 overall TD scoring, 7 are WRs, one is a TE and the other half is RBs of course.  WRs are picking up yards in chunks this season and scoring TDs pretty consistently. Your RBs are solid, but your depth isn't that good with Stephen Davis coming back in a couple weeks Foster will be a horrible fantasy back.  That sucks you lost out on Heap, that would have made up a little for your WR lackage.

After Reche Caldwell's latest production, and overall season numbers of 280+ yards and 3 TDs, he is a decent trading commodity.  I'd advise you to try and trade Reche with Deshaun Foster for a top WR if you can get someone dumb enough to do it.  Find a team in your league that is desperate for RBs, and throw Foster in his face.

If you can get a top WR, with Stephen Davis coming back in a couple weeks (Davis will definately take enough carries/touches away from Foster to make him worthless in fantasy football, it is rumored that he will even regain the starting job, but either way will likely get a lot of work) you could pull off a great trade.

Also as you know Boldin will be back in a few weeks (I think early Nov.) so that could be another WR should he get close to last years performance although that is asking a lot.
