There is no way that the lead of any column today should not be the trade of Trent Richardson from Cleveland to Indy. Mid-season trades of this magnitude are rare since they send a message to your fan-base that you are giving up. This clearly sends a message to the fantasy community that Ahmad Bradshaw was not the right guy for Indianapolis. If you listen to Colton and The Wolfman, we said that all pre-season. Also, wouldnât start T-Rich this week since he has to learn a whole new playbook by Sunday. Not happening.So, now that I am obsessing about The Fantasy 100 today, of course, I started to think movies. It is not just numbers or projections, it is a puzzle. Like Benjamin Franklin Gates (Nick Cage) in National Treasure uses all the clues to try to find Templarâs Treasure before the bad guys do to save it for the United States. I need to use the clues.  I need start with the numbers. I need to watch film.  I need to look at the game plans by reading beat writers. I need to step-by-step like Benjamin Franklin Gates find the treasures of the NFL and compare them to the Tiers. After two weeks with the The Fantasy 100, I am reminded by Gates in the movie of a quote from Thomas Edisonâs struggles: âI didnât fail. I found 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb; I only need to find one way to make it work.â So after two weeks ofâ¦well failure, we will give it another go with more vigor, intensity, number crunching, life liberty and the pursuit of F100 Points.
My Roster Strategy for Week 3
Take a look at all the matchups and focus on those to determine possible break out situations. Then look for really low Tier players who reflect those matchups. Then fill in with the superstars in the best matchups. Itâs all about the match-ups this week.Lions passing attack versus the Redskins
The Redskins have let up 71 points through two games. Opponent QBs score 34 points and WRs score 53 points versus their defense per game in a PPR format.  Megatron and Stafford are must haves.Chiefs passing attack versus the Eagles
Opponent QBs score 30 points and WRs score a whopping 60 points versus their defense per game in a PPR format.  They made Eddie Royal the most sought after pick up this week. Get Jamaal Charles and Dwayne Bowe.Seahawks versus Jags
A steady early dose of Marshawn Lynch, but then I think Turbin and Michael get a lot of carries as this gets out of hand quick. The defense is for real so make sure we get the defense.Bengals passing attack versus the Packers
This was the third best choice, but I wanted to note it here for those who want to grab A.J. Green. He is a good play this week. Even the undervalued Andy Dalton should over perform his Tier 8 ranking.My Roster for Week 3
- Matthew Stafford â DET â QB â Tier 2 (Matchup Play)
- Chris Johnson â TEN â RB â Tier 4 (Value Play)
- Matt Forte â CHI â RB â Tier 7 (Value Play)
- Calvin Johnson â DET â WR â Tier 1 (Matchup Play)
- Dwayne Bowe â KC â WR â Tier 5 (Matchup Play)
- Eddie Royal â SDG â WR â Tier 10 (Value Play)
- Jason Witten â DAL â TE â Tier 8 (Matchup Play)
- Seattle DT â Tier 1 (Matchup Play)
- Jamaal Charles â KC â RB â Tier 2 (Matchup Play)
- Stevie Johnson â BUF  - WR â Tier 10 (Value  and Matchup Play)
That would NOT be good.
