This Week's Transactions: Bye Week MADNESS

Greg Little, Jackie Battle, Doug Baldwin, Steve Breaston, Tashard Choice, those are just some of the names that will be starting on rosters throughout leagues because of another harsh week of bye weeks (6 teams on byes again). Major risk, major rewards are in store for those who think deep outside the box and try to find those potential diamonds in the rough. We'll see if some of these moves pay off in a good or bad way this week.

Adds



Kellen Winslow-TE





Monterrio Hardesty-RB





Billy Cundiff-K



Drops


Matt Bryant-K





Cincinnati Bengals Defense


Overview: I addressed my bye week needs for this week, last week when I picked up Jackie Battle and Greg Little, and this week I addressed my TE bye week by picking up Kellen Winslow. I felt he was the best out there. I also made a kicking change as Matt Bryant just isn't getting the opportunities, so I'm going with Billy Cundiff now who's been pretty solid all year. Monterrio Hardesty was a speculative pickup in case Peyton Hillis misses some extended time or just loses his job all together, Hardesty would be next in line. I doubt he'll ever play for me barring injury.

Take Dat Wit Chu

Adds


DeMarco Murray-RB



Drops



Hines Ward-WR



Overview: With Felix Jones out a few weeks, Kenny picked up Demarco Murray to see what he can do, though it's doubtful he'll ever use him. He's got more upside than Hines Ward, and I have no idea why Kenny had him anyway.

Salt & Vinegar Chips

Adds


Carson Palmer-QB





Kevin Boss-TE




Denver Broncos Defense


Drops



Malcolm Floyd-WR




Atlanta Falcons Defense


Miami Dolphins Defense




Overview: I have no idea what Mike Posey is doing. Carson Palmer is a nice speculative add, but if he's planning on actually using him this week, it's pretty crazy. Kevin Boss as his tight end? Maybe there is nothing out there, I dunno. The Broncos defense might be a sneaky play as they play the mediocre Miami offense. No risk in the drops, as Posey dropped two defenses and Malcolm Floyd who I think is still rosterable despite a slow injury riddled start.


Channel 4 News Team

Adds


Devin Hester-WR





Matt Hasselbeck-QB



Drops


Lance Moore-WR




Buffalo Bills Defense


Overview: Tom Brady is on bye, so Albert picked up Matt Hasselbeck and he's got a good matchup against the Houston Texans. Lance Moore is too inconsistent so Albert dropped him for Devin Hester. No clue if he'll end up using him or not. Albert just dropped an extra defense so no big loss.

Shredders

Adds


Steve Breaston-WR





Joe Flacco-QB




Dallas Cowboys Defense





Doug Baldwin-WR






Benjamin Watson-TE



Drops


New York Giants Defense


 Ryan Fitzpatrick-QB


Jermaine Gresham-TE


Mike Thomas-WR



Overview: Zach made so many moves my head hurts. There are a few other moves Zach made but the players were on his team for mere minutes so it's not worth keeping track of em. He even added, dropped, and added again Steve Breaston (who he dropped last week). I love the Flacco pickup for this week though. Vick has a bye and Flacco has a great matchup against the Jacksonville Jags Monday Night. Doug Baldwin and Breaston are definitely wild cards, but must starts this week due to the bye week. Mike Thomas has been dropped again and Jermaine Gresham certainly didn't last long as Ben Watson will fill in this week. Ryan Fitzpatrick was expendable because of the bye week as well.


Hoosier Daddy

Adds


Ryan Fitzpatrick-QB



Houston Texans Defense


Drops


Joseph Addai-RB





Isaac Redman-RB



Overview: Ryan basically replaces Flacco with Fitzpatrick for when  Cam Newton goes on Bye. He also picks up Houston's defense. He dropped Joseph Addai who's been hurt and Isaac Redman who's basically waiver wire fodder now that Rashard Mendenhall is back healthy and looking good.

The Bad Bobofies

Adds


Rob Bironas-K

Tennessee Titans Defense


Drops


Ladanian Tomlinson-RB

Minnesota Vikings Defense


Overview: Dad needed a kicker since his is on bye and he didn't wanna drop him so he picks up Bironas and drops LT, who really doesn't do much to warrant ownership in a 10 team league. Dad also needed a new Defense after that horrid Minnesota play last week so he's going with the Titans this week.


The_Twin_Killers

Adds


Nate Burleson-WR


Tashard Choice-RB



Drops


Tim Hightower-RB


Jabar Gaffney-WR



Overview: The bye week will force both Burleson and Choice into Leland's lineup as he drops two underachieving Redskins.

Da Boyz and Dr. Wily's Robots made no moves this week.
