I'm glad to see that we're allowed to attack the poster and not the posts now. It's a little difficult to type with your words shoved in my mouth, but I'll give it a try.
Russ dropped Matt Hasselback and added Max Hall to his fantasy roster. I'm not in his league, but that basically tells me that Russ's prediction is that Hall will be better than Hasselback this year.
That makes more sense than you think. Unless Schaub gets hurt my backup QB will be active exactly once this year, his bye week. Hasselbeck is injury prone, has been for years, and he's not exactly putting up big numbers yet in Seattle.
I picked up Hall for a simple reason, Schaub's bye week is week 7, Seattle plays Arizona in week 7. Because our run defense has been so bad, I expect Seattle to run more against us than pass. Meanwhile they have the 29th ranked pass defense and we're not running as much as we should, so I expect us to pass more than run against Seattle. So for that one game I figure the ceiling is higher for Hall than it is for Hasselbeck.
It has nothing to do with what I expect of each guy for the season, it's a move designed for one game.
