Should I trade Kevin Smith for Addai

Postby oakscorps » Tue Apr 28, 2009 8:35 pm

It would be Kevin Smith and a 2nd round rookie pick for Addai and a 5th round FA pick. The roookie pick will get me a top 5 rookie QB or WR which is a huge risk and not something I need. THe FA pick would get me a starting D player

Have never liked Addai and it appears Indy has lost some faith as well. At best he will be a 50/50 RBBC this year and maybe end up on the losing side of that. Keep Smith or change the offer.

I agree, keep Smith or get more in the offer. I actually like Addai, but Indy must have lost faith in him in order to draft a rb in the first round.

Absolutely not. Kevin Smith has way more upside than Addai. I wouldn't be surprised if Donald Brown takes over the Colts' starting job after the midway point of the '09 season.

Smith is just geting started and put up decent rookie numbers for a winless team. The Lions' offensive line is getting better after spending a 1st round pick on OT Gosder Cherilius in 2008 and another on a great blocking TE Brandon Pettigrew in 2009.

Smith has NO COMPETITON for carries (Rudi Johnson is gone and the Lions brought in Maurice Morris from Seattle, bug deal).

That pretty much sums it up for me, I was a big Kevin Smith fan before last year and still am, and his situation has only gotten better, while Addai's has gotten worse, and I agree Brown will be the man there pretty soon.

This is pretty much a +1.

In one dynasty I'm in I gave Addai and got Smith (in different trades) before the draft, so needless to say, I'm pretty happy with how that turned out.
