Question

my TE is jason witten and idk when the cowboys bye week is but just to make sure, i need a back up TE.

Starters

Tom Brady- QB

Brandon Jacobs- RB

Darren McFadden- RB

Calvin Johnson- WR

Reggie Wayne- WR

Marvin Harrison- WR

Jason Witten- TE

Seahawks D/ST

Stephen Gostowski- K

Reserves

Deangelo Williams-RB

Chris Chambers- WR

Ahman Green- RB

Patrick Crayton- WR

Vince Young- QB

Browns D/ST

Ben Roethlisberger -QB

Do I trade for TE or do i need to release somebody to pick up a TE?

Answer 1

don't do anything yet. Dallas doesn't go on bye until Week 10. a ton can and will change by then.

even when you drop Ahman Green (it won't take long, and V. Young will prove he's not worth a spot either), don't waste the roster spot on a TE. i love it when teams in my league draft backup TE, K, and Defenses. i rarely even take a backup QB. i draft a ton of RBs and WRs, guys worth stashing to see if they make an impact. and every year at least one of those RBs and one WR ends up being legit. and i have more trade bait than anyone in the league. even if your TE had a Week 4 bye it wouldn't be worth sweating right now.  

Answer 2

I also have Jason Witten and his bye week is week 10, now the person you should release is Vince Young let's face it you aren't going to get a lot out of him he can't throw you have Ben Roethlisberger, so get rid of Vince Young and get a TE whose bye week is not week 10. Or if you want to keep Vince Young release Ahman Green.  

Answer 3

A te isnt really needed in a team untill a injury happens to your starter or as a bye week replacement. If you can a good pickup would be Greg olsen or Kevin boss seeing how both are high in value but not much people know it. If you have to drop Vince young seeing as he has no Wide

rec and you have a good Qb in Big ben.

Answer 4

You don't need a backup tight end. There is no point in picking up a free agent tight end because the differential in fantasy points from a top starter free agent tight end to a low tier starting tight end is not very much. Wait till the season starts because there are many unknown tight ends that may come up like owen daniels last year. Hope this helps.  

Answer 5

I would hold off until the Cowboys bye which isn't till week ten.  We'll see what happens then.  You really don't need Three QBs, especially with Brady

Answer 6

if for some reason you are looking for a tight end there may be a good shot that you could get vernon davis pretty cheaply and not lose to much production

Answer 7

you dont need a back up tight end.. just release a player that isnt doing good when your starting tight end has a bye
