Hurry up and click the accept button before this guy comes to his senses!

You are getting a top 15 RB and a top 10 WR. Both of these guys will be starters for you. If you had better RBs, id say pass, but since you need RBs, this trade is perfect. Moss is a stud WR, but this guy is offering a lot for him! Do it now!

I'm not as high on this as the guy above me. You need upgrades at RB, but you could do better than Barber IMO

I wouldn't do it. MBIII is only a slight upgrade from your current RB's and Colston is nowhere near Moss.

I'm high on Pierre Thomas this season. He'd still be your #1 IMO even with MBIII. You do need some better depth at RB (a lot of potential there, but no sure thing) but you have an awesome 1-2 punch at WR. See if he'll up the ante a little.
Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

I guess people forget how productive MBIII is in the role he will return to this year. He is going in the 2nd round of drafts, not too far after Moss. Colston will not be far off points wise from Moss and could push for a top 5 spot if he stays healthy. This trade makes perfect sense for him! MBIII is much better than the guys he currently has and excels in the role he is in.

I would not feel comfortable starting K.Smith and P.Thomas each week......

I kind of agree but like the other guys posted MBIII might not be much of a upgrade to any of these
3 guys.
Thomas, Pierre RB NO
McCoy, LeSean RB PHI
McFadden, Darren
becasue westbrook will get hurt (McCoy, LeSean) , Thomas, Pierre RB no should stll put up decent
numbers even with bush, and McFadden, Darren might have has coming out year. Damn this is a hard decsion.

I think that you are fine with what you have at rb right now. Moss should have another big season with Brady back and qb and I think that you have more than enough rb depth. I think between McF, Thomas and Smith you have three quality rb's. Good luck.

Well i rejected the trade but he reoffered and telling me he will give me a few more days to think about it. I think i just might do it after all.

Don't do it... Barber will be splitting more with a healthy felix jones. You are jumping down a whole tier of WRs for a guy who may not be much better than Dmac or McCoy when it's all said and done. I think you are on the right track with the trade but that just isn't the RB you are looking for.

I'd do this deal. You are hurting at RB. Don't believe that McCoy will start over Westbrook. Westbrook plays hurt all the time, yes he might miss a game or two. But two starts out of McCoy will not help your team. Pierre Thomas was everyone's star heading into drafts, but now he has an MCL sprain and is questionable for week 1.

Barber will return to a more effective role this year as the goal-line RB in a RBBC. In 2006, he had 14 TD's on just 135 carries when he shared time with Julius Jones.

Moss will have a great year, but so should Colston. Both are #1 WR's on prolific offenses with great QB's. Moss could outscore Colston by 3 points per Fantasy game. But Barber should get an average of 10 points per Fantasy game.

Do the math; you're getting 7 more points per week on average because of this deal, and you're geting two starters for one. I'd do this deal if I were you.
I have the doomsday device!
