Megatron/Housh for AJ/OchoCinco?????

Postby cloudwasher » Thu Sep 03, 2009 12:18 am

I was offered this trade:

I get Calvin Johnson and TJ Houshmanzadeh

I give Andre Johnson and Chad OchoCinco

Im not sure what to do. It seems like an almost complete wash to me. Opinions?

pull the trigger. CJ will be huge this year, and Housh could finish top-10 WR. The way I look at it, AJ goes as Schaub goes (with CJ, and Housh for that matter, it doesn't matter who throws to him). Ochocinco is barely the most talented receiver on his own team anymore (its actually Chris Henry). It might be a close call and if you have personal preferences of these players it will bias you, but I would have drafted CJ > AJ and did draft Housh > Ocho.

I'm not sure how this trade makes your team better. I usually don't like these type of challenge trades...

it actually does make your team better by adding consistency, especially on the back end. I dont know many owners that want Ochocinco. Every week he might go huge, but if not he's a bust. Look at his past, he usually scores in about 4 games a year and somehow it adds up to 7 or 8 tds. He gets hot and feels good when he has a good matchup and can score 2 or 3 (he does it every year), but against a good matchup he just curls up like the girl he is and gives you a big stinker.

Housh will make football plays. 3rd and 5 he's coming across the middle and taking a big hit. he's in every play with all his heart and skill. he's a constant redzone target and scores td's consistently. he scored in 10 games just a few years back and has that in him still. i do think that CJ has bigger play-making ability at the front end of the trade too, but thats just personal preference and otherwise a wash.

I would do it, AJ and Megatron are essentially equal. I like Housh much more. Ocho could have a good year but its not guaranteed. I do like that his life coach is denzel washington though. In summation I trade to get CJ and Housh.
