Is Thomas Jones worth it? WHIR

Postby munstermann » Thu Sep 03, 2009 9:43 pm

ok so I just got an offer of Thomas Jones FOR London Fletcher, Justin Tuck and Lance Moore

I'm a bit leary of this trade because I'm pretty low on WR depth, and this deals quite a blow to my IDP set-up, however it may be good as both of my starting RB's are on BYE week 4 so having Jamal Lewis AND Thomas Jones gives me solid backup options.

Let me know if you think I should go through with this, Roster is as follows:

Starters:
QB: Matt Ryan
RB: Michael Turner
RB: Brian Westbrook
WR: Roddy White
WR: Anthony Gonzalez
WR: Lance Moore
TE: Jason Witten
LB: Jonathan Vilma
LB: London Fletcher
DL: Justin Tuck
DL: Justin Smith
DB: Michael Lewis
DB: Darrelle Revis
DP: Lofa Tatupu
D/ST: Eagles
K: Bironas

Bench:
QB: Bulger
RB: Jamal Lewis
RB: Jerious Norwood
WR: Donnie Avery
WR: Muhsin Muhammad
LB: Joey Porter
DL: Darryl Tapp
DB: Cedric Griffin
DB: Sean Jones

While I am lost on the IDP thing, you could afford to lose Jones provided your WW has some nice RB2's RB3's in case of emergency. (E. Grahm, F. Taylor, K. Faulk etc..)

No, your really overpaying for TJ if you do that. You already have turner and westbrook and lewis as a backup.

I am not sure about the IDP's but taking Jones for Moore would leave you ultra thin at WR having to start Avery or Muhammad every week. Not what you want to be doing.
