Forte?
Is Forte a bust for this year, or worth going after? His owner in my league is now 0-2 and looking for trade offers, is he worth trying to scoop up?

Well, the first game Cutler was horrific and they never really had a chance to get their run game going against GB with all the turnovers. Then they played the best defense in the league so I wouldn't consider him a bust. I think if you were to go after him, now would be the time to do it.

Ha... i just offered 2 trades for him in 2 different leagues.
Currently on the table in my ppr league: Reggie Bush + Bowe -for- forte
Hope he takes it. Its fair value (right now at least)...but this may his cheapest value of the year.
I say BUY!

Sell him to me!!
I wouldn't worry about Forte ... the Bears' schedule gets more favorable over the next several weeks, including a tasty matchup against a Seahawks defense that gave up a gazillion yards to Frank Gore last week.

Forte is due for a big week. He's to talented. I think he will bust out this week against Seattle. I'm starting him in my league.
