Dealing Joseph Addai -- WHIR

Postby A2theIzzo » Wed Sep 02, 2009 6:33 pm

Hey guys,

Just wanted some advice. My RB2 is currently Joseph Addai and I'm a little worried because someone snagged Donald Brown. I was wondering if I should deal him to that guy, or ask for Donald Brown. I would appreciate if you guys would make some suggestions about trades.

MY TEAM:
QB - Aaron Rodgers
RB - Ladanian Tomlinson
RB - Joseph Addai
WR - Roddy White
WR - Santonio Holmes
WR/RB - Lance Moore
TE - Jason Witten
D/ST - Panthers
K - David Akers

Bench:
Darren Sproles - RB
Domenik Hixon - WR
Julius Jones - RB
Kyle Orton - QB
Donnie Avery - WR
Brent Celek - TE

HIS TEAM:
QB Matt Schaub
RB DeAngelo Williams
RB Kevin Smith
RB/WR Ray Rice
WR Randy Moss
WR Anthony Gonzalez
TE Zach Miller
D/ST Packers
K Nick Folk
Bench Lee Evans
Bench Donald Brown
Bench Chris Henry
Bench James Davis
Bench Jermichael Finley
Bench Joe Flacco
Bench Hakeem Nicks

Maybe do something like Addai for Ray Rice?

Or Addai and someone for Kevin Smith?

Any suggestions would be appreciated! Leave your link.

I just don't like Addai at all when it comes to fantasy football. He couldn't find the endzone last year. If the other guy would give me Ray Rice for Addai, I would take it and run as fast as I could.

Conversely, I really like Ray Rice this year. The Ravens run the ball a LOT. McGahee seems to be perpetually injured and I have read a couple of reports that say McClain has shifted over to more of a FB role. It sure looks like Rice is setting up for a nice year, IMO.

So Addai for Rice is good for me? He might accept, since he has Donald Brown.

Ray Rice for Addai is a NO BRAINER. Addai has nothing but downside, Ray Rice nothing but upside..

Rice will recieve atleast 225 carries and 45 receptions this year. McClain is a full time fullback and Mcgahee is just his backup. Remember Ravens ran 595 times last year, even if they run 550 times still Rice is lookin at 225+ carries as the feature back.

Look for 1000 rushing and 400 recieving from rice with 8 TDs.

Addai looking at 750 rushing and 250 receiving with 8 TDs... Donald Brown will be mixed in A LOT and Colts dont run often.. Ravens run THE MOST.

no brainer

I like Rice as an option too, Smith would be fair as well probably a coin flip over who does better. Rice has some company there in the backfield but Detroit will be behind more leaving them with having to pass later in the game. good luck.

IMO, there's no doubt about it. Last year Addai was supposed to become a feature back. He rushed for 5 TDs all year and got 100+ yards ONE time. Just a terrible showing. If he manages to get the TDs up, he could have some value. However, the Colts have been putting Brown in a lot inside the 10 this pre-season.

As someone else said, Ray Rice has a huge upside. Addai seems to be all downside at this point.
