Overpaying for Forte?

Postby jgardner8271992 » Tue Jun 09, 2009 9:36 pm

I am in the 4th round of a offline draft for a keeper league we are in. We keep 4(3 last year so picks do not line up this year as if it was 4,) and I have been offered Matt Forte and a 8th round draft pick this year/11th in a regular draft for LT and Marques Colston.

While I do not really want to trade two keepers for one LT is close to the end of the road and Forte is an elite rb. My team so far is: Tony Romo, LT, Parker, Welker, and Colston(start 3 WR.) So is the great upgrade of Forte from LT worth trading Colston for?

Also I have two picks coming up so I can potentially draft two of the following: Bernard Berrian, Donnie Avery, Driver, Crotchery, Breaston, Anthony Gonzo.

Thanks in advance.

Does your league award points per reception?

How many do you start each week? You say you can start 3 WRs, but what about RBs etc.?

If you post that info I think you will get better responses. ;-D

Well to me LT has one, maybe two decent years remaining, Forte is in his second year and should be a top rb for the next 5-6 years, barring injury. It may hurt this year, but will pay off in the next year or so. So if you are trading Forte for those two I would go for it.

Sorry for the lack of info. We can start two RBS and we have one WR/RB flex. In anticipation of the trade I went ahead and drafted Coles and Berrian. Also no it is not a PPR league.
