Bringing the Pride Back (HC 09)

[BrnwsBucksFanNC]

Owner requests for re-signing and my thoughts...

QB Anderson: Good QB, but not GREAT QB. I am working my back-up into the game and may try to trade Anderson. I know he is going to want a huge contract, just not sure I want to give it to him.

WR Edwards: "Butterfingers" Braylon. He had 4 drops in the last preseaon game and that was in 1 half, but then he has 8 catches in the 1st game of the season. He has 51 TDs over his career...but he also has 51 drops....most of any of the premiere WRs this year. Jury is out on him, may trade him and just take the hit from the owner.

C Hank Fraley: Not going to happen. 32 years old, health at 85% on a good day. I may trade him now though if I can trade for Nick Mangold from the Jets. I think he will sign fairly easy and would be a great upgrade. Mangold is in his last year as well.

DT Moore: Up to him really. He is tough to negotiate with so will see what he wants,

DT Rubin: Would like to keep him. Rogers is already banged up (health at 77) but just like Moore, up to him. Both are good DTs, but not been putting up GREAT numbers.

OLB Wimbley: Even though he is good, he is already banged up. Will see what happens before the trade window opens.

K Serna: Will keep unless he demands the universe...and the kitchen sink!


The only other 4 I am considering keeping are FB Vickers MLB King, RB Joseph and P Kern. I will see what the others want, but except for the CBs, everyone esle is a backup. MLB King and RB Joseph will be interesting to see if they progress into anything.

The kicker really hurt them in this game. My defense was in "bend but dont break" mode. To be honest, I was very shocked by this win.

WEEK 3, BROWNS @ RAVENS

This game was ugly. I figured it wouldnt be too bad, Boyler was hurt so they were starting Scotland, their rooke QB. He tore me up! I really need to upgrade my corners, they were getting burned all over the field. The defense stepped up in the 4th quarter to shut them down and I came away with the win...nothing to brag about though.

Are you playing the 2010 season or simming/supersimming it?

Both actually. I played the game against the Jets and against the Ravens. I simmed the one against the Patriots, figured I would get killed if I played it. So I was shocked with the win. My next game will be against the Colts, will play it, probably tomorrow evening.

Am considering a couple of trades. I think I am going to try and move OLB Wimbley. His leg is shot, down to 55% and is getting worse. I am also going to try and trade RB Howry. Joseph is progressing nicely and the other RBs can pick up the carries. I dont run as much as I used to so it is not that big of a deal. I am also going to try and get C Nick Mangold from the Jets. He is a great Center, still young and in great health. If I do, Farley is gone. He is 33 and his health has fallen to a 71%. As soon as LE Williams can be dumped, he is gone as well, one leg is at 20%, not much good to me.
