Predraft Trade, Should I or shouldn't I

Postby Thundercat » Fri Aug 07, 2009 2:54 pm

Right now I have Andre Johnson (our league we can freeze 2 players). There is an offer for Johnson. I would have to give up Andre Johnson and my 4th round pick and in return I WOULD GET Drew Brees and Matt Forte and there 8th round pick. (10 team league). We have 20 rounds of drafting. There for should I pull the trigger or not? Draft Day is August 21st :-o

Did you just say you trade AJ and 4th round pick for Brees and Forte and draft pick?

YES, do that!!!!!!!!! Others will want to know your roster and other keeper...

Thanks to you all! I would be freezing Brees & Forte, and still get a 3rd round pick, lose my 4th pick, then have 5th, 6th, 7th, and 2 8th round picks.The team I'm trading too would freeze Adrian Peterson, Andre Johnson, then would get a 3rd round pick and 2 4th round picks.Do you all think I should still "PULL THE TRIGGER". Please advise. ;-D

Well first off...whats your league settings ? How many pts for TDs etc.

Even though tempting...I would not want to give up my 4th pick as well.

In this scenario

You - Would have Forte, Brees a 3rd round pick (a WR i guess) and wud then be quite shallow still on WR corps bcos u get nothing in Rd 4.

Him - He gets AP, AJ, 3rd Rd (a top QB) and in 4th round 2 more strong RB2 & WR2.

So in comparison u seem to be giving him more gains.

But if QBs have real high value then u cud consider getting Brees !!!

PS: I believe that guy won last year's league too ? If he had AP, Brees and Forte.

By "freeze" do you mean "keep"? I have never heard that term used....

I will be keeping Brees and Forte,and NO this guy did not win the league last year. I'm still having second thoughts, because if I only keep 1 player I would still get a 2nd round draft pick. Would Brees be there, I doubt it. Our QB GETS 4 POINTS FOR A TD PASS up to 20 yards and every 10 yards after that the point total goes up 1 point. Therefore a 30 yard td pass is worth 5 and so on.... I'm still debating :-o
