I cannot understand why you can't run the ball Devin. Your OL is very solid aside from the injuries. Dillon is a top guy. it makes NO sense.

I mean, we can't have a 9 at every position onthe OL. you are gonna have some good players and some average players. Would a REAL NFL OL look better than a 9-7-6.5-6-7?

I'd think with that kind of line with a good RB would make for a good running game.... I mean what does it take?

To be honest dude thats a great question, everyone in my OL is ranked at LEAST 5.5-6 and Dillon is a 1600 yard back with a dozen TD's. And I cant do anything, literally nothing!

Im not sure what else I need to do. I held off on a trade yesterday because it occured to me that everyone on my line was adequate. If I need 8+ at every position some changes will have to be made.

That's what i mean. My run game is okay... some game good some bad. but Jamal had a bad year and my OL is suspect. The right side is 2 5.5's i think.

But i look at other teams who made a good effort in building the OL, you spent 11 mill on yours, and an elite back, and yet you get nothing. And worst of all you CONSISTENTLY get nothing.

You didn't get a good FB, but there wan't that much difference in FB's anyway.

I just don't get it.

The ONLY thing that i can think of, is that with only 20 teams, the run defenses are too good overall.

yes trust me its a bit frustrating. Tom Brady and my WR's/TE are keeping me alive, but every game its like 20-40 yards tops. Infuriates me.

Im not sure what adjustments I could possibly make.

I reckon ill have to work the phones a bit more to get a player or two. Aparrently every single person in the BZFL is 100% happy with thier team.

I could use upgrades at DE, DT, G, T and I'd really like to upgrade Winfield or Henry to an elite CB, even if Winfield is an 8. I'd like a 9 with more picks.

But, I am NOT sacrificing my recieving corps to do it.

I've also noticed a lot of owners don't want to give up anything to gets something. Trades are supposed to involve giving up something good to get something good that is of bigger need, for both teams.

yeah there are only 2 owners thus far ive dealt with who were even close to fair.

Devin: "What do you want for your second string OT?"

Owner: "2 draft picks and your starting QB"

Devin: "suck my ass. good-day."

:spit:

hang in there with Dillon he will get his yards and I agree I have made some outrageous trade offer giving up way more than I was getting because I have great depth but still had the other owners saying they wanted more I agree there have been maybe 5 owners here that were dealing fair value for value the rest want the steal of teh century
