WHIR--RB->WR Trade Help

Postby minnewildsota » Thu Feb 26, 2009 1:20 am

First off I will state my current team.

QB
Tony Romo $4

RB
Thomas Jones $6
Chris Johnson** $3 2012
Steve Slaton** $3 2012
Maurice Jones-Drew** $5 2010
Ryan Grant $3
Derrick Ward $3
Jerious Norwood $5 2010
Peyton Hillis $2

WR
Vincent Jackson $4
Mark Clayton $3
Steve Smith $2
Robert Meachem** $4 2011
Jordy Nelson $2
Josh Morgan $2

TE
Tony Scheffler $3
Zach Miller $2

** = I have rookie rights to these players; 4 years from when they are selected in our rookie draft(when they were rookies).

Rules
Salaries increase by 20% each year, rounded up.
25 man roster limit.
100$ team salary limit(salary is tradeable)
I have 3 1st round picks and 5 2nd round picks.
I have 17 players on my roster with $44 available.
Standard scoring.

I realize I need to upgrade my WR's.

I have been offered Andre Johnson($17) for MJD, CJohnson, Slaton, OR (possibly)TJones and a 1st. This team is in my division, which makes doing a trade with this person very hard, nor is he a moron.

Any suggestions on the deal?


Additional information:
There's 3 WR's that I will/could be targeting that will be put into free agency.
Moss or Owens
Chad Johnson
Santana Moss
Ward(possibly)
Steve Smith(Car) (possibly)

There's about 4 other teams that will be looking for a WR also.

$17 is hefty for a $100 cap league but I would lean towards doing the TJones and a 1st as long as the 1st is not in the top 4 picks.

Johnson, Slaton and MJD at those prices should yield you a top tier WR that has a cheap cap number. Maybe a Marshall or a Calvin would be my first thoughts.

Stay away from Andre Johnson. He's injury-prone and expensive. I love AJ as much as the next guy, but that money is A LOT. I don't think your WRs are in that much trouble. Whatever you do, don't trade MJD. He'll be cheap for a long time. If he wants to trade Andre I would offer him Thomas Jones and your 2nd round pick. Rookies appear to be money in this league. The more young, cheap talent you can acquire, the better. Keep those picks.
