I wouldnt do it. You are giving up 4-5 possible starters for AJ and backups. OD isnt OD of old yet.

I don't think I'd do that trade unless he was willing to take out Benson or Turner. You lose too much at RB while also losing your top QB, and a top 5-8 fantasy QB.

Well, I just sent in the counter trade, taking out Turner. I think I'll be fine with Donovan at QB, because I gain Andre.

A guy in my league wants a QB and is willing to trade an RB. I have Rivers and Matt Ryan. I was thinking about offerring up Ryan. It makes me a little nervous about injury and his bye week (week 10).
Anywho, here's his RB's
Tolbert
Tomlinson
R. Brown
Portis
P. Hillis
P. Thomas
Would you offer the trade? I don't think he'll let go of Thomas, especially with Bush sidelined. So was thinking about trying to get Ronnie Brown. Maybe even Hillis, but I don't know much about him.

QB - Rivers, Ryan
RB - Peterson, Hightower, Spiller, Sproles, Mccoy
WR - Colston, C. Johnson, Evans, D. Bryant, N. Washington
TE - Gonzo, Moeaki
D/St - Colts (for now)
K - Tynes
His Roster:
QB Chad Henne
RB LaDainian Tomlinson,
RB Peyton Hillis,
RB/WR Pierre Thomas,
WR Reggie Wayne,
WR Randy Moss,
TE John Carlson,
D/ST Titans D/ST,

I think so too. Who would you prefer or what order would you prefer all 3?

I think Pierre Thomas is your best bet, but you will need another backup QB. If you know which RB you will drop, you might as well get McNabb or Henne in the process and throw in Spiller or Sproles.

That's a tough question.
Brown is a beast but you can only rely on him for 1/2 a season. Hillis might have the most upside but he also has the lowest floor. I think PT Cruiser is probably the safest bet but you never know with an ankle injury.
If I needed a guy I could plug in week to week and feel comfortable with, then I'd prolly go PT. If I wanted a guy who could win me a game or two just by himself, I might go with Hillis.

I believe you trade a starter for a starter. I offer him Ryan for Pierre Thomas and nothing less.
Don't see what advantage Brady would bring you.

I don't see how you gain anything with this trade. Rivers and Brady are both equally as capable fantasy options, and Rivers is not exactly injury prone. Sure you aren't giving up much RIGHT NOW, but what is Dez Bryant takes over the #2 spot and starts putting up big numbers?
I see this as more of a risk for you than you should take. If he gave you something more in return, I'd consider it.
I would do the trade you're deep enough at QB to make this trade.
If you have injury problems else where you could always trade Brady or Rivers.
Doing this trade is good for your team. Because you're getting Brady cheap. IMHO

I would take this deal and then turn right around and trade Brady for an elite WR or RB.

Since Mark Clayton is gone and I have both DeSean Jackson and Maclin, I was thinking of trading for Brandon Marshall.
Basically,
Kyle Orton and Maclin for Marshall and VY (Aaron Rodgers is my starter, with the Sanchise at No. 2)
Lop-sided trade, but I need a No. 3 WR

My first instinct was to go for it but I didn't realize how good Maclin has been. With Desean Jackson's status up in the air and Rodgers having a concussion, I'm not sure I would make that trade. Huge gamble for sure.
Edit: BTW If I were you I would go out and grab Danny Amendola. He is the only thing the Rams have left at WR and he was actually pretty good before Clayton went down (especially in ppr leagues). The guy had 20 freakin targets last week and put up 12 grabs for 95 yards. Plus he does stuff like this...

I want in that league? Really? How does that pass league approval?
Kudos to you for pulling that off.
How high was Andre drafted in your league? He went in the top 6 in every one of mine, iirc.

Hall of Fame
Andre went 12th overall a little lower than normal just because this is a 14 team league and everybody wanted a RB since Rb's are so hard to come by ina big league.
But draft positons are kinda out the window at this point. I think Andre's value is a little down now since he is injured and Matt hasn't lit it up.
If everybody redrafted today, I guarantee you that Bradshaw goes in the second round in most leagues.

What?!?!? Dude, you got a steal!
Sure, maybe we are all a bit biased but once Andre gets over this ankle injury, watch out!
What other RBs do you have?
I have him on my team and about the only trade proposal I have been considering is Andre, Benson, and Kellen Winslow for Nicks, MJD, and Dallas Clark. Even then, I am hesitant as MJD has not been having a good season and looks like damaged goods this year, but I would love the improvement of Clark at TE. I guess we'll see what happens.
Ok man, I just think you got a steal.

I hope you are right...
My other RB's are Arian Foster, Michael Turner, Justin Forsett and now CJ Spiller. Obvioulsy if Arian or Turner go down, I am in trouble.
My Wr's now are Andre, Randy Moss, Desean jackson and Jacoby Jones. I had to do this trade just because I am so worried about Moss and Jackson, they are so unpredictable week to week.

My RBs are Arian Foster, Jamaal Charles, Cedric Benson, CJ Spiller, Mike Tolbert, and Felix Jones.
My WRs are Andre Johnson, Wes Welker, Mike Wallace, & Deion Branch.
Think I should do a trade of Cedric Benson for Hakeem Nicks?
I could also possibly do Andre for Ahmad Bradshaw & Brandon Marshall. Think I should do either one?

If you can pull a Bradshaw and Marshall for Andre, I would do that. Youare getting two very solid starters for one great starter.

Alright, I got Stingray's advice. Curious what the rest of you think, and I need to know asap.
Trade proposal is Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Marshall, and Zach Miller for Andre Johnson and Kellen Winslow.
Think I should pull the trigger?

I don't think so. How many rb's can you start?

Three.
Part of my motivation though is to take away this guy's depth at RB. He has Lesean McCoy, Chris Johnson, Ahmad Bradshaw, and Ray Rice. Rice & McCoy have been injury prone this season and who knows if they will make it a full season. If something happens to either of them and I take Bradshaw from him, his depth is shot while I still have Foster, Charles, Benson, Felix Jones, Spiller, & Bradshaw. Plus if Foster's performance turns out to be an aberration or one of my top RBs gets hurt, I have another top RB to plug in.
Plus, I need help at TE and Zach Miller has been money.

Ok now he wants Andre, Felix Jones, and Aaron Hernandez for Bradshaw, Miller, and Marshall.
I am thinking that is a bit too much. I am thinking of countering with Andre, Jones, and Hernandez for Bradshaw, Miller, Marshall, and Knowshon Moreno.

He's getting greedy, I wouldn't go for his trade. AJ is a beast when healthy, Hernandez could end up being a top 3 TE, and Felix Jones is going to be getting a lot more looks going forward.

You think Hernandez has that much potential?
What about if he was willing to take Spiller or Mike Tolbert instead of Jones?
It's funny cause I am asking a lot of people and everyone has the same response. When it is just AJ & one of my TEs for Marshall, Bradshaw, and Miller, they say go for it. Once he asked for Jones, everyone has said no way.
Just tell me which option(s) you think is best:
Option 1: AJ, Hernandez, & Spiller for Marshall, Bradshaw, & Miller
Option 2: AJ, Winslow, & Jones for Marshall, Bradshaw & Miller
Option 3: AJ, Hernandez, & Jones for Marshall, Ray Rice, & Miller

Option 1
Hernandez has a lot of upside imo. He's a big fast kid with a ton of athleticism. I'm really interested to see how he does with Moss out of the lineup. 2 schools of thought on that, either he is going to see more targets now that Moss is gone or the DB's aren't going to have to respect the deep ball anymore and will be able to key in on Welker and Hernandez. I'm betting on the former.

You saying you think Option 1 is the best or the worst? You rave about Hernandez, which I really like him too and he was VERY good at Florida, but yet think trading him, Spiller, and AJ is a goo deal?
Thanks a ton man, and I too love talking fantasy. Probably a bit too much as I really should be working right now.

Alright, I got him to do AJ, Winslow, and Jones for Bradshaw, Marshall, & Miller. I think I will do it.
I still get to keep Hernandez, and Jones doesn't mean that much to me since I will now have Foster, Bradshaw, Benson, Charles, Tolbert, & Spiller. I may even still drop Spiller and sign either Michael Crabtree, Denny Amendola, Nate Washington, or Kenny Britt. Any thoughts on which of those I should sign?

When you guys get a chance, I'd love some commentary on the trade? Am I a complete ***** for trading AJ? I mean if this was last season, the answer would be yes. But with the way the running game is looking, how out of it Schaub seems, and AJ's ankle, I don't think it was a bad move. Thoughts?
Also, I really am thinking of dropping Slaton for another WR. Options are Denny Amendola, Michael Crabtree, Kenny Britt, Nate Washington, Jabar Gaffney, Nate Burleson, Pierre Garcon, and Brandon Tate.
You can choose two. I will likely drop both Spiller and Deion Branch.

WR: Brandon Marshall, Wes Welker, Mike Wallace, Michael Crabtree, Kenny Britt

Now that my RBs consist of Arian Foster, Ahmad Bradshaw, Cedric Benson, Jamaal Charles, and Mike Tolbert, I am thinking of trading one of my RBs to one of two guys in our league that badly need a RB. Options look like this:
Option 1: Select a RB for Hakeem Nicks
Option 2: Select a RB for Calvin Johnson
Option 3: Select a RB for Malcolm Floyd
Option 4: Select a RB for Desean Jackson
Think I should do one of these? This would give me insurance in case Chad Henne continues to be incapable of getting Brandon Marshall the ball consistently and/or Wes Welker gets locked down now that Moss is gone.
My WRs are Brandon Marshall, Wes Welker, Kenny Britt, Mike Wallace, and Michael Crabtree.
Thoughts? Really appreciate the help guys!
