Keeper deal involving AP, need some help WHIR

Postby PedroFan45 » Thu Apr 09, 2009 8:49 am

We keep 5 players plus a rookie in a 10 team league. The scoring is pretty standard with point per reception and 8 pts for rush TD/6 pts for rec TD

I've been offered
Andre Johnson
Donovan McNabb
LenDale White
Terrell Owens

For
Adrian Peterson
Roddy White

and the same thing without Owens and White in it.

Keepers without the trade:
Adrian Peterson
Roddy White
Kevin Smith
Tony Gonzalez
Matt Cassel
Ernest Graham/Chad Johnson/Patrick Crayton

Keepers if I do the trade:
Andre Johnson
Donovan McNabb
LenDale White
Terrell Owens/Roddy White
Kevin Smith
Tony Gonzalez

Do I make the deal?

In a word... no.

Your potential trading partner is trying to cash in on the success Johnson had last year at WR and throw in some worthless depth to try to wrangle a surefire RB1 off of your team. Johnson isn't going to put up 1,600/11 (something like that) again, and Roddy White is a better long term option. Don't even give it a second thought...turn it down.

I would say no to both deals.

I own AP in a keeper league... I would consider trading him for a lower RB1 and a top-5 WR, but no less than that.

I would indeed consider shopping him around for that RB/WR combo as your keepers could use some more firepower.

It might make sense to move Peterson if you can acquire some top end talent for him at both RB/WR.

Is there anyone in your league with too many keepers maybe at WR?
Matt Cassel
Adrian Peterson
Kevin Smith
Roddy White
Tony Gonzalez

are solid keepers. You could use another WR keeper. Chad Johnson might be worth the risk to some but to me he's not. Crayton isn't keepable. Graham has ward breathing down his neck (smells of a RBBC).

I wouldn't keep him either.

It would be nice if you posted your whole roster. With those types of options I might be willing to roll the dice on a young player....if your unable to trade. What FAs are out there?

My whole roster

QB: Brett Favre, Carson Palmer, Matt Cassel
RB: Adrian Peterson, Kevin Smith, Ernest Graham
WR: Roddy White, Chad Johnson, Patrick Crayton, Santonio Holmes, Laverneus Coles, Matt Jones
TE: Tony Gonzalez
DEF: Green Bay
K: Steven Gostkowski

Holmes might be another option I can throw into the mix

Nope. Adrian is too valuable to get rid of for that group of players. McNabb is old and injury prone, AJ is great but hasn't been consistant every year and never has had double digit TDs, LenDale is a good goalline back but CJ will flourish and be on the field most of the time and TO is not getting any younger and is now playing with by far the least talented QB he has in his career.

No deal!!
