TPD lost his 3rd game in a row last week and the consequences of starting (1-3) for the 2nd year in a row were aimed directly at his roster. TPD cleaned house this week. He made multiple trades, sending a message to his team, the fans, and the league. It is simply unacceptable that we are at this point yet again. The franchise cannot put into words how disappointing it is to continually start seasons poorly, but as the theme for 2016 indicates TPD remains strong and hardened by the compounding circumstances.
It is not everyday that a team acquires one of the best RBs in fantasy, only to trade them a day later. TPD did just that after acquiring D. Johnson. Many thought David was the piece TPD had been missing, but he had other plans. He quickly sent a resounding message to his roster, indicating no one is assured a starting spot. It was a truly unprecedented and jaw dropping move. Once the dust had settled TPD was left with 5 well known WR commodities in Beckham, Evans, Marshall, Jeffery. and Robinson. One of the most imposing group of WRs ever will try to flip the script for this franchise. TPD feels comfortable with any of them starting each week depending on the match-ups. This week will be another tough decision as a guy like Alshon is currently on the bench but he has a great match-up and opportunity with K. White now on IR.
His RB position completely changed. Christine Michael was the only RB to survive the trading onslaught and stay on TPDs roster. He welcomes two dependable starters in McCoy and Anderson to help maintain stability at the position. All told TPD could welcome an astounding 6 new starters to his lineup in preparation for a big game against TNR. TPD is desperate. He has done everything he possibility can to field what he believes is the best team possible. Only time will tell, and this week present new challenges against a team welcoming new starters of their own. It is TPD's hope that his roster can reach its full potential just as the heart of his divisional schedule picks up in a few weeks.
All the new faces present an opportunity to examine new NASTY abilities in TPD's starting lineup. The possibilities are endless and TPD could be looking at a NASTY explosion come Sunday. He has 3 weeks worth of NASTY overflowing the barrels that barely contain it, and whether it is this week or future ones, you can bet the impact will be felt by many. LOOK OUT...NASTY!
Player Profile: Odell Beckham Jr.
Beckham's start to the season has been a microcosm of TPD's season. He's been slow out of the gates with seemingly the whole world/league ganging up against him like TPD's opponents each week. Week 5 is the time for Beckham to break out and be the macrocosm for what is to come for TPD. He has a great match-up on Sunday Night Football and look for Beckham to be the catalyst for changing the landscape of the season. OBJ, unleash the NASTY.
