Injuries are destroying rosters. Make sure you're checking your lineups before Sunday, guys. It's gonna be tough down the stretch for all of us.

I just want to pointment out that I have, without a shadow of a doubt, won the only trade that has occurred in this league.
Take that, Conner!

I'm still trying hard, even though I'm 1-6 right now.
If I had to do it over again, I would've placed a much, much higher priority on RB. I looked at RB as good bullpen arms in MLB: everybody has one, and enough new ones are being found all the time.
But that clearly isn't the case this year. There are only scraps- and for the most part, not even good scraps- available on the RB waiver wire each week. Meanwhile, at WR- which a lot of people value more highly- there are still decent starting options out there each week if you want 'em.
I should've drafted an RB earlier, and I also should've taken Joe up on his offer of Drew Brees for Russell Wilson. Wilson has been stinxing up the joint this year.

I always find it amusing that each year the fantasy football pundits hype up WR. WRs are the most plentiful resource in fantasy football. There are more WRs available per team on rosters than just about any other position (typically teams carry 5-6 WRs during the season). I do believe that Tier 1 WRs like Julio Jones and AJ Green should be drafted highly. In this era where a RB1 is a guy who takes 66% or more of the touches per game, shouldn't we all be prioritizing RBs that gets 80%+ of the RB touches?
I think the only thing that has really changed about fantasy football from when I started playing over 20 years ago up to now is that there are fewer reliable RB1 options each draft (and more reliable WR1 options).
Injuries still suck though. Holy hell. I went from having the best crop of RBs to being the just-another-guy squad. Matt Asiata is hype!
