Fantasy Trade

[Stealth]

I'm in a 12 man league. I love the team I ended up with, but I need an elite receiver but I can't think of anything I'm willing to give up. I got offered Brandon Jackson and Randy Moss for Ray Rice and Eddie Royal.

If I made the trade, my starters would be:

QB: Eli
RB: Steven Jackson
RB: Pierre Thomas
RB/WR: Brandon Jackson
WR: Randy Moss
WR: Ochocinco/Steve Smith/Malcom Floyd
TE: Dallas Clark


If I don't, my starters would be:

QB: Eli
RB: Steven Jackson
RB: Ray Rice
RB/WR: Pierre Thomas
WR: Ochocinco
WR: Steve Smith/Eddie Royal/Malcom Floyd
TE: Dallas Clark

i like sjax w/rice thomas ocho and smith more. Moss would be nice to have but if sjax goes down you are hurting BAAAAAD at rb. i'd stick with what you have now

Getting rid of Ray Rice is fine hes been struggling, but Randy Moss isn't even the top receiver in New England...Also do something with Pierre Thomas and Eli, if you could pick up a better QB and RB you might have one hell of a team together...

 

[Rich]

Packers have already mentioned that Brandon Jackson won't get the majority of touches. Heck there's been rumors that Marshawn Lynch may go to either the Packers or Patriots very soon in a trade. And Royal may get more touches, depending on how Demaryius Thomas does the rest of the season.

Keep your guys.

getting rid of your #1 pick early in season is the #1 mistake fantasy noobs make. Ray Rice will eventually turn it around and end of season will be right where everyone thought he would be top 5 - 8 rb in league

 

[Rich]

I agree, he just played the Jets and a divisional rival Bengals.

I've had Rice for two years and I hate watching him. He scores no TDs and has been really hit or miss.

Pierre Thomas is gonna be a beast now that Reggie Bush is out, so I think with jackson and thomas I have two elite RBs. With Rice I have 3 elite RBs, but no good WRs.

I guess I should add in that I have Vincent Jackson sitting on my bench. If he gets traded, my team will be set.


The other problem is that the person I'm trade with has the other good team. My team is fucking STACKED in a 12 person league. But this kid has: Cutler, MJD, Mendenhall, Brandon Jackson, Andre Johnson, Randy Moss, Antonio Gates.

I need to make sure that his team is worse than mine after this trade.

 

[ColdBlooded]

Did you miss the draft or something?

well can you wait on the trade until tomorrow. you will know about vincent jacksons availibility by end of today. I still wouldnt make the trade though. you said you want to make him weaker not stronger....how would you feel when it comes to playig him and your facing mjd, mendenhall and rice??? I dont care who your wr's are you stand no chance.

Funny, I somehow ended up with five wideouts in my league (12-man non-PPR), and two runningbacks from moves today:

QB - Schaub
WR - Andre Johnson
WR - Johnny Knox(ville)
RB - Jamaal Charles
RB - Donald Brown (dropped Addai, his season outlook doesn't look good since he's a FA next year)
TE - Jason Witten (He's on the can't-cut list, damnnnnnn)
Flex - Demaryius Thomas (dropped Santana Moss)
K - Neil Rackers
D - Saints

Bench - Jermaine Gresham, Mark Clayton, Mike Williams Tampa, Mike Vick (surprisingly he was still a FA even after the 1st week, just picked him up today after dropping Bernard Scott).

So I somehow need a RB. I'll pick up someone after week 3 ends.

So there are no other guys in your league who will trade?

stealth....saints just got betts

look for denver rookie on waiver wire and GET HIM

VJ will be playing for a team soon, and will be #1 target esp if he goes to vikes

shake ray, keep eddie until your WR position shapes up.

patience my friend, patience.

troll the waiver wire like lee-zilla does the parking lot of Curves

if you can, try and muscle MJD or mendenhall away

Do you know what teams on a 12 keeper man league looks like? I have one of the top two teams in my league.

There are, but they have no idea how to value a trade. I've been getting some horrible, horrible offers. All I want is an elite WR, and people are saying shit like I'll trade you Greg Jennings for Ray Rice and Pierre Thomas. Or Steven Jackson for Michael Bush and Clinton Portis. Fuck that.

Yeah, I'm probably not making the trade, but it was tempting enough to consider. I might have to pick up Betts just to be safe. Denver rookie is gone, this league has no depth at all. Everyone has been taken up. I'm #1 on the waiver wire so I'm just gonna hold off a few weeks until injury.

I just hate Ray Rice. Even when I had him last year. I don't think he's ever been in the red zone in his entire life.

 

[Rich]

Whos available as far as Wideouts go on the waiver wire/FA?

 

[Stealth]

Amendola, Roy E Williams, Roscoe Parrish, Meacham, Morgan, Chambers, Evans...and it gets a lot worse after that.

I also got Mike Thomas for Jacksonville.


I had Wes Welker to start the year off, thought he'd be hurt, and traded him for Ochocinco. Starting to regret that one....

 

[Rich]

Wait I just look another look at your wideouts again. Malcom Floyd and Steve Smith can hold it down.

 

[Joey]

Packers have already mentioned that Brandon Jackson won't get the majority of touches. Heck there's been rumors that Marshawn Lynch may go to either the Packers or Patriots very soon in a trade. And Royal may get more touches, depending on how Demaryius Thomas does the rest of the season.

Keep your guys.

That would be nice to get beast mode in Green Bay...If so i may have to pick him up in my league to compliment Aaron Rodgers and Greg Jennings...

 

[Rossibreath]

Guy just offered me dwayne bowe and jamaal Charles for shown Greene and demarious Thomas

 

[Count_Slapula]

WR - Johnny Knox(ville)

lol! btw I like your Shaub/Johnson combo...
