Looks like someone at RotoHog screwed up Dwayne Bowe. He dropped $17 overnight! In all likelihood, they meant to process a price gain of $8.50 (coming off a bye week), and processed as a decrease instead.

"Exhibit A" as to why manual price changes aren't sucha good idea!

Ref - How low are your $? From your posts the last few weeks it seems like you should be getting near $0.

Fortunately I've been able to make some of it back on Wed and Sat. I had gotten back above $500 on Sat but am below $450 right now. I think I should follow the trend of sell almost everyone on Tuesday morning and only buy people I KNOW will make money. Instead I buy people after about the first 5 mins and people look to profit-take early and I end up losing on them too. Oh well. At least, I'm moving up the leaders list.

It's that 3:00 break when the selling floor comes back when all of the players are on your bench.

They reset Bowe's value to what it should have been - nice boost!

I picked Bowe up on spec yesterday AM because of his low price. About 7pm, I did a double-take on his price increase on the roster page as it wasn't reflected on the trading floor. I sold him shortly after that.

Makes up a bit for the downward price adjustment of Tom Brady on Tuesday AM.

They did a similar downward adjustment on Folk, who was at $32 earlier in the day (clearly a mistake), and then went to $22 sometime during the day.
