Had the dreaded pick 6..........and grabbed Aaron Rodgers cause I wanted him to build around,and my other "first picks" were already gone...but on the way back,with my second pick(#19 over-all)......I COULDN'T RESIST when I look up to see Vick sitting thereBasically this is trade-bait....top 10 RB or WR minimum...I can wait.........

So yes...(I can't believe I'm typing this).....I took back-to-back QB's with my first 2 picks

Here's the rest.....12 team-reg scoring

RB'sDarren McFadden,Ahmad Bradshaw,Cedric Benson,MichaelBush,ThomasJones,Cadillac

WR'sBrandonMarshall,BrandonLoyd,KennyBritt,HinesWard,DonaldDriver,DeonBranch

TE'sRobGronkoski,TonyMoeaki

FALCONS D.........Rob Bironas K

I might not rock-n-roll every week...but depending on a possible trade....don't think its too bad-and if no one offers up a worthy trade...I'll situationally rotate my Big Guns as match-ups dictate

You actually came out pretty well. I am high on your starting RBs your Wideouts most likely will be poor but you should be able to get a good WR for Vick. I wouldn't trade for him but enough people are high on him you should get good value.

A guy in our league did the same thing last year.  The rest of us made an agreement at the draft that night that no one would trade with him; he swore that we were all full of it.  We all held our ground (if I wanted him instead of my top RB/WR I would've drafted him instead).  He finished in LAST place and took home our toilet bowl trophy.

You actually did alright on the rest of your draft (Benson getting sentenced to some jail time could hurt if a suspension follows).

I hope that strategy works out better for you then it did for my buddy.

TERRIBLE AWFUL WORST MOVE you can make in fantasy. Dont care how your draft came out after the move. Take out Vick and add say Roddy White, Jones-Drew, Calvin Johnson, Hakeem Nicks. The list goes on and on. IF and i mean IF you even work a trade out for him no chance in hell you get 2nd round value for him. Have fun wasting your 2nd round pick on a player like Brandon Lloyd or Blount.

You have NO leverage against any other manager and they know that. You will be FORCED to deal one.

Bad move. Some guy did same thing last year, had peyton and brees all year long. Then when he did try to trade then we all kept rejecting it.

There's got to be someone available with more upside than Todd Heap. I would go for a Kendricks, Cook (probably gone), Gresham, or Dickson.
