That's 35 BANGS!! Eddie! Jack,

L. Hamilton for $69. Nice job. I was tip off about this guy at a seat down I had, by a FF player that knows his stuff.

I drafted him in some Leagues, but I made sure I have him on everyone of my teams. Yes I over paid for him, but he reminds me of P.Thomas last year and both Bell(Who I also have on most of my teams) and T.Thomas are hurting. This kid could be Gold!

John [/QUOTE]Bell (knee) and Moore (hamstring) will be sidelined after being injured against the Philadelphia Eagles. Running back Lynell Hamilton is expected to be active and share the workload with Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas.

Asked if Hamilton would assume Bell's role against the Bills, Payton replied: "I don't think that's accurate."

I like Knox a lot and thought that the mid 200s should be good enough for him. I was wrong.

I picked him up in the main last week for 17 and should have grabbed him across the board. (drafted him in some leagues)

The Bears are doing the right thing with this one. Get him on the field as soon as possible and involved in as many ways as possible.

He is lightning fast, has hands of steel and is as tough as nails.

He is the Bears version of Eddie Royal this year for Cutler. Cutler was looking for him last week and I think that continues.

My brother mentioned that he reminds him of a young Steve Smith and I think he is right.

The bad news is that Cutler is just getting used to his new toys and there will likely be growing pains for all Bears targets. Having said that, Knox is the most explosive player on that team and I would def start him.

He has the instincts and skill set that they have been TRYING to instill in Hester for the past couple of years and it comes naturally to him.

He has a feel for the game and a knack for going and getting the football. He has what you cannot teach.

I think this group continues to develop at the expense of Matt Fortes numbers.

Johnnie "Fort" Knox could be Golden this year!

I got Hamilton for $1 in one league and $159 in another. Different needs created different bids. Fun stuff.

I take no credit, just the points.

P. Thomas is getting closer to 100%, R Bush is healthy for now. Mike Bell is not lost for the season. He'll be back in 3 weeks. Too many IFs for Hamilton to be useful.

Interesting to hear some of the bidding on Forsett. I drafted him in every league, so I hope he gets a chance in Seattle. Hard to believe Manningham was still a free agent in some leagues. Lots of love for Knox. Bennett, Hester, and Olsen will see plenty of targets so Knox is going to be inconsistent. If he's this year's E Royal, boy did I miss out again.

Bobby F'n Wade went for $455!!!! Holy cow! Lots of spending on VERY questionable "talent". Knox may be a nice bye week guy and being a Bears fan I hope he does more but I don't see consistent production. But Bobby Wade?!?

Johnnie "Fort" Knox could be Golden this year! Wow! Knox should fire his agent and hire you

Also that team could have Moore, A.Bryant, etc...

If Wade catches 5-60 the rest of the year with 5 tds, that could be the player that completes the team and gets it through the bye weeks.

Also, if he has 550 left, one can do plenty of damage the rest of the way with that...
