Upgrade Mahoney is the only thing. Maybe NBrown. Id definitely save at least one trade until the final 2 weeks. I have 2 at the moment and will hold both

Other option is you get his scores for the rest of the year if he doesn't break and then you'll be able to constantly give non-owners the shit by bragging a about bringing him it.
Surely you need to be saving trades so none of the above happens?

Your team is solid AF mate,so jealous of your 4 trades haha. Yeah I’d be holding this week with that team

Hold.
Basically the same squad as mine, you have Moses and Mahoney, I have Cleary and Fainu with 4 trades. My plan is to turn Fainu, To’o and Carrigan into Twin turbos and a cashout.
You could cash out Carrigan and upgrade To’o but I’d wait a week or two before using my last trade.

For years it's been pretty simple...CS9

Since Last year it was Cook then maybe CS9, Fifita/JTurbo if frisky then just punts

This year its

Cook/Fifita/CS9/CM9/Taumalolo/Haas all going over 60 average which is bonkers!

Go with your gut if that's what you'd do regardless of position.

I'm actually leaning that Teddy will do more with all those guys out, but he pretty much has to score a try and be involved in a bunch of LB/LBA/TA plays to really put up that captain score you'd be happy with. He's capable, so if you're confident that's the type of game he's going to have, go for it.

The nature of FBs though, he could have a very good game, score a try even, but still only end up in the 40s or 50s. Guys like Cook and Haas scoring 40s would probably be considered a bad game the way they're going.

What a luxury to have Ponga on the bench

Yeah it's his floor that's the problem. But I guess I'd be way more annoyed if say Cook went large and I didn't captain him vs Teddy goes large and I didn't captain him.

Bateman and Ponga as well

Both slightly unders for me because their floor is lower

Game on then lol, I’m having my best season so far in my third year, improved from 7000ish last year (just played head to head and didn’t bother with bye rounds) but this is the first season I’ve gone for both overall and head to head and I’m just outside the top 600 currently. In the last 5 weeks I’ve moved up about 500 places, I’m trying to maintain that now.

What I’m hoping is people run out of trades and that I keep holding my 4 trades for when I need them and from rounds 23-25 that’s when I could take advantage and push up hopefully into the top 500.
