What RB's value is equal to Andre Johnson???

Postby Saintsfan2004 » Sun May 17, 2009 8:02 pm

I am loaded at WR. I am looking to aquire a top RB for next season. I am willing to give up Andre Johnson but he is a stud and I only want a stud in return. Which RB's would you consided fair value for Johnson....

I am in a PPR league also.....

Thanks

Keeper or Dynasty?

Gore, DeAngelo, and Barber.

Barber might be the only 1 of those you could get straight up. Are you willing to package a RB in with AJ? And as Aaaw said... keeper, dynasty, PPR or Non PPR?

On a straight up deal I would have to knock it down at least 1 tier... Jacobs, Lynch, Barber type guy.

He says PPR. But I would agree Jacobs, Lynch, I'd even add Portis.

It all depends on how you value the backs to Andre and how the other guy does as well when it comes down to it.

So AJ gets a boost in a PPR... I think that grouping is fairly accurate for a straight up deal. POrtis might be pushing it but as you said, all comes down to how you value the players and the need for each team.

It is a keeper league and a PPR league....

Unless you can find a team loaded at RB and starving at WR I would probably still lean towards a package of Aj and a lesser RB for a top 5 RB and a lesser WR.

In a typical PPR league, your likely to find at least one AJ worshipper willing to overpay. Since this is all for fun though, it'd be best if you made a stab at fairness. LOL Without more info on your total roster, my thought would be to try packaging AJ for, say, Marshawn (with the multigame suspension to start the season) & Pierre Thomas. OK, OK - I did say a stab at fairness....Marshawn & a Leon Washington type. If you can throw in a lesser RB2, your leverage would move up a notch or two on each return RB; perhaps even to Barber/Pierre territory.
