In this week's special edition of "Roster Moves" I decided that I couldn't, in good conscience, single out any moves I could feel good about. Basically, I picked up players that are "trending" a little better than the ones I released -- minor mathematical upgrades.
Ben Tate was dropped by the Browns and picked up by the Vikings. Hopefully he'll shut his big trap and start performing. Not that he'll actually make it back into my starting lineup, even as bad as it is.
Obviously, the team is a mess. When players like Kenny Britt and Roy Helu are upgrades, you know you have your work cut out for you. If I manage to split the last two games and sneak into the playoffs, I'd be thrilled.
When Brandin Cooks went down I immediately inserted the struggling Steve Smith. Really, he's as good an option as any. And how fun will Monday Night be -- with Ingram on one side and the Smith Brothers on the other?! Whether or not I can win, it is a fun idea!
