Rivers for 1.03 AND (Barber or DeAngelo)?

Postby ROYALWITCHEESE » Fri May 15, 2009 8:20 pm

PPR I asked for Drew, but it doesn't seem likely. QBs are very valuable in our league, but we are making the jump to PPR. I have Brady, Rivers, and Orton at QB. I offered Rivers for Drew, and he has responded with "one and his other RBs and the 1.03". His other RBs are DeAngelo, Barber, and Westbrook.

So the question is: should I go for DeAngelo and the 1.03 OR Barber and the 1.03.

Barber catches more passes, and is a near sure bet for double digit TDs

Williams is coming off his break out season and is more explosive, but doesn't catch that many passes.

Here is my roster:

QB- Brady, Rivers, Orton
RB- AD, Grant, Ward, Maroney, Faulk, BJackson, CTaylor, Choice
WR- Randy, Roy, Ocho, Gonzale, Bradley, MJones
TE- Cooley, Lewis
1.07

His:

QB- Collins, Hill, Garcia
RB- MJD, Barber, DeAngelo, Westbrook, Buckhalter
WR- Housh, Coles, Ward, Hackett
TE- Heap
1.03

Barber & the 1.03. Your rb's are similar to one of my dynasty teams (Grant/Jackson, & Barber/Choice if your deal goes through)........

Then use the 1.03 to grab Crabtree, Maclin, or Nicks.

Good luck!

Out of curiosity why do you prefer Barber over DeAngelo?

Well I think that you are trading from a position of power to further strengthen your team. Here is how I see MBIII and DWill.
DWill was splitting carries with Foster for his first two years. I know that at the end of the 07' season he sat down with Vinny Testaverde and had a long talk about what it took to be successful in the league and he then said he was going to make the commitment to being a top player. So they are a run first offense and he put up huge numbers and should have another great season. I do know that he had 6-7 td runs of 20+yards, a NFL record, so even if you take those away he had a great year.
MBIII played better with J.Jones splitting carries and him coming in and pounding the ball in the 4th quarter. So if the other two rb's can do the same thing that Jones did then MBIII should be able to return to form and have another top year.
So who do I like, D.Will (plus I have him in my dynasty league also). But I do think that with the run first offense he should still put up big numbers again this year. So if you can pull off a trade, have the 1.3 and 1.7 that is great for you now and in the future. Good luck.
