If you're a Football Outsider you're a TRUE player and true players don't stick to one passion only, so here's something else to excite you while you're waiting for the game to start. How about a free $30 chip to play slot machine games for as long as you want?
Is it actually possible to buy low on Bowe? This is the second year I drafted Bowe based on Kubiak, and now for the second time he is a massive disappointment. And though I know it's early, the returns on my other Kubiak - influenced WRs (Hines Ward, Steve Smith, Steve Breaston) aren't much better.
I'm in a PPR league and KUBIAK is still really high on Forte. I drafted him but haven't liked the way the season started. Last week I traded him for Marshall.

Its funny to come back later in the season and see how right/wrong some of you and the KUBIAK have been.
1. Naanee - nope. T.O. - Yup.
2. Bowe - Turned it around (first time in years - or ever?)
3. Some dude traded Matt Forte for Ben Roethlisberger and Felix Jones. ahahaha. he's sitting around right now like "fml." Especially since Fitzpatrick has been easily picked up, and money in the bank.
My ongoing, successful draft strategy: draft TEN TONS of running back. Every other position in the league (except elite TE) is not scarce. There are a ton of b+ receivers, plenty of defensive matchups to exploit, but you just can't get good RBs on the wire, and they cost an arm and a leg to trade for.
TEN TONS of Running Back. Try it next year, you're welcome.
Glad my trade entertained you so much. I haven't exactly been "sitting around like 'fml'" as you suggest though. Considering Felix has matched or outscored Forte in over half of the weeks since the trade, and Roethlisberger has put up good numbers since then as well, I am pretty happy with the trade.
Roethlisberger is a good buy-low candidate. Currently ranked 28th in the league in fantasy points but KUBIAC had him ranked 5th! Boy, did I sucker all the other owners in snatching up this guy for a song during the draft. Can't wait until he starts producing, then watch out league. You laugh at my choice of QB now but come Novemeber we'll see whose laughing..ah-hahahahahahaha
Re: Kubiak Midseason Update Buy Low List
Legedu? I dunno...KUBIAK's got TO and Crabtree above Legedu, and those two haven't shown anything so far...
Re: Kubiak Midseason Update Buy Low List
Bowe

Steve Smith (NYG)
Just traded Harvin for him. Hope it pays off...but I see very little downside to the trade.

Re: Kubiak Midseason Update Buy Low List
Rigth now I'm not sure I'd trust it. My Kubiak drafted team hasn't won a game yet. Ray Rice + Randy Moss = lose every week.

Re: Kubiak Midseason Update Buy Low List
I dumped him this week too, in a deal that landed me Roethlisberger (I was desperate for a QB) and Felix Jones.
Re: Kubiak Midseason Update Buy Low List
What do you guys think about Deangelo Williams for Steve Smith (NYG)? Long term and short term?
Always looking to learn more about the game. Always.
