Rivers and V-Jax for Brees and Nicks

My roster is:

QB:
Rivers
Young
Freeman

RB:
Jones-Drew
Slaton
Wells
Lewis
Taylor
Moats

WR:
Jackson
A. Johnson
Austin
Smith
Edwards
Bennett

TE:
Winslow
Heap
Cooley

K:
Folk

DEF:
Arizona
San Fran

1 QB, 2RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF is the starters.

Also, this is a keeper league, so I would be keeping Brees if I traded for him.
If this trade doesnt happen I would most likely keep Rivers, V-Jax, Andre and Jones-Drew.

Any thoughts?

You have almost the same team as my buddy who is undefeated. You are loaded dude. Since you have Miles Austin and Steve Smith (NY or Car?) I would do that trade in a heartbeat. No question. You are loaded.

I just made this trade:

Cedric Benson
Derrick Mason

for

Ray Rice
Kevin Walter

Think it was a good trade? Ray Rice has been awesome. I will pair him with Steve Slaton and Matt Forte (who has started to get hot). I am hurting a bit at WR but have Crabtree, Nate Burleson, Steve Smith (NYG), and Braylon Edwards. I think I would be deep enough at RB to be fine with that. Thoughts?

Thanks for the advice. I'm hoping the trade doesn't get vetoed(only one trade so far this year hasn't) Lucky pick ups off the waiver wire of Smith and Austin lol.

I think you get the better end of the deal there with Rice. Benson has gotten the yards but hasnt really hit on as many touchdowns as you would like. Rice has also gotten better as the season has worn on.

I am in the same boat with hoping the trade doesn't get vetoed. It will be the ONLY trade of the year. Last year in the same league with almost exactly the same people, there were tons of trades. This year there have been hardly any. Thanks for your take on the trade as well.

In my league with the Colts board I traded:

I got
J Stewart
NE D
D Henderson

He got
F Taylor
R Brown

dodged a bullet with that one. I am pretty sure he is pissed right now. It is a 16 team league and I was in last and now am in 9th.

Yeah, I would say that worked out pretty good in your favour. Ronnie is a huge blow to the Fins. I was offered Ricky Williams and Roy Williams for Jackson before Sunday, and as soon as he got injured the offer was cancelled. I almost took it before that too.
