Okay, let’s talk about how I got David Montgomery on my team in the game. This guy’s been a beast, and I knew I had to have him. It was a long shot, but I figured, why not give it a try?
I started by looking at my roster, checking out who I could maybe trade away. I mean, I had some good players, but nobody’s quite like Montgomery, right? So I started sending out feelers to other players in the league, seeing if anyone was interested in a trade.
I sent out like five or six offers, to be honest. Most of them got rejected, and I get it, nobody wants to give up a good player easily. But I kept at it, tweaking my offers here and there, trying to find that sweet spot.
- First, I offered up my second-string running back and a wide receiver. No dice.
- Then, I tried swapping out the wide receiver for a tight end. Still nothing.
- I even threw in a draft pick in one of the offers, hoping to sweeten the deal. Rejected again!
Finally, after what felt like forever, I got a bite. One of the other managers was interested. We went back and forth a few times, negotiating the details. It was nerve-wracking, to be honest, but we eventually hammered out a deal that worked for both of us.
I ended up trading away a pretty good running back and a decent wide receiver, plus a couple of draft picks. It was a hefty price, but I figured it was worth it to get Montgomery on my team. He could be a real game-changer, you know?
The trade went through, and boom, David Montgomery was officially on my roster! It felt amazing, like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. I was pumped to see what he could do.
Setting the Lineup
Once I had Montgomery, the next step was figuring out my lineup. I spent a good chunk of time thinking about it, and looked over all the matchups for the week. It’s not just about plugging in your best players, you gotta think about who they’re playing against, too.
I moved some players around, trying different combinations. It’s like putting together a puzzle, you know? You want all the pieces to fit just right.
Finally, I settled on a lineup I felt good about. Montgomery was in, obviously, and I made sure to surround him with players who could complement his skills.
And you know what? It paid off! Montgomery had a monster game, racking up tons of yards and scoring a couple of touchdowns. My team ended up winning by a comfortable margin. It was awesome!
So yeah, that’s the story of how I started David Montgomery. It took some effort, but it was totally worth it in the end. Sometimes you gotta take risks to get the rewards, right?
