RazorStar 4,025 Posted November 14, 2014 I'm confused at the inclusion of Ola, and the fact that 5 mill a year became a bargain for WRs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted November 14, 2014 I'm confused at the inclusion of Ola, and the fact that 5 mill a year became a bargain for WRs. yeah, there were a few that seemed like all the guy had to say was "hey, here's a starter who's playing at veteran minimum" as to the WRs, it's worth noting that Maclin and Sanders rank 27th and 28th respectively in average salary at the WR spot and are sitting at 8th and 7th respectively in receiving yards and 18th and 4th respectively in receptions, so while they do have high salaries they're still providing pretty good bang for the buck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CampinWithaMissingPerson 2,025 Posted November 15, 2014 I'm confused at the inclusion of Ola, and the fact that 5 mill a year became a bargain for WRs. Fuck that Ola fuck boy. Cost me my fantasy match-up against Vin by stealing away my BMarsh TD and giving it to the Black Unicorn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
