Re: Big Z traded to Miami
Well, from a fantasy perspective, I really like the guy as a risk-reward play. Some might see such antics as bringing down the value, as well as the whole year statline. But he's still got great stuff. Haven't seen Norm or Tim around the forums, so I think I'm safe from someone bidding him up for me.
