My Bowe for his Grant? Good trade? WHIR!

Postby Dude_202 » Sat Aug 29, 2009 12:57 pm

Here's the trade:
I get Ryan Grant
He gets Dwayne Bowe

Here's my roster (No PPR)
QB - Matt Ryan (Kyle Orton)
RB - Chris Johnson, Joseph Addai (Jonathan Stewart, LeSean McCoy, Peyton Hillis, Michael Bush)
WR - Calvin Johnson, Dwayne Bowe, Devin Hester (Steve Breston, Chris Henry)
TE - Zach Miller
DEF - NY Jets
K - David Akers

Should I make the trade? I am pretty weak at RB, but the combo of Calvin Johnson/Bowe seems too good to give up. If I do go with the trade, I'm thinking about moving Stewart for another WR like Ward but trades are never guaranteed in fantasy. What should I do?

I would do that. I don't trust Addai at all. Grant and Bowe are both going to have great years, but I think Grant will help you out more. Then try to trade for another receiver like you mentioned.

I would do it. I don't trust Addai as a #2 RB. If I were you, i would also shop J Stew to the D Will owner for a WR. Your WR depth is hurting.

Don't even wait for another answer. Take it before he repeals the trade. That's huge on your side.

Help on mine?
Thanks in advance...

I'd do it as well. I'm not too high on Bowe this year -- with Gonzo being traded he is the only reliable receiver in KC. You'll be alright with Hester and Henry to take his spot and it will definitely improve your RB


please help

Hahahahahaha......ABSOLUTELY do this trade NOW!!!

A top RB who should have an explosive year for a good WR2.....hmmm......

Definately take this trade and run and then try and pawn some of those extra RB leftovers for some WR action!

Good Job!
