Need help deciding on trade WHIR

[scoobyDoo]

12 Team money league
We start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 FLEX, 1 TE, 1 DST, 1 K
Standard scoring for yds. No PPR, 6pts for QB TD

My team:
QB - Ryan, Shaun Hill
RB - Forte, Addai, Beanie Wells, Fred Jackson, Julius Jones
WR - Jennings, Boldin, Holt, Hixon
TE - Gates

His team:
QB - Schaub, Favre
RB - Slaton, Grant, Ray Rice, Chester Taylor, Tim Hightower
WR - Roddy White, TJ Housh, Lance Moore, Justin Gage
TE - Olsen

Trade: I give up Ryan, Wells, Gates. I receive Schaub, Rice, Olsen.

My take: I get a pretty good upgrade in Rice over Wells, although I think Wells might have slightly higher potential. I'd like to break up Boldin and Wells if i could. QB's are probably a push, but I feel if Schaub stays healthy hes much better. Sadly I have no confidence in that. Gates is better than Olsen, but Olsen should be pretty good and can breakout. Right now I'm leaning yes but scared of Schaub getting hurt and Hill not all that great a backup.

I agree with you on every aspect. I definately love Rice over Wells 100%, I like Shaub over Ryan (only if Shaub is healthy and right now he is injured so....) and Gates is better than Olsen however, with the upgrade in the other 2 I think it's pretty much an even trade!

I would do it!

Yeah I like that trade a lot for you, I think your getting an upgrade at QB and RB for a slight downgrade at TE, and I think Olsen has a lot of upside this year.

I say no, based solely on the fact that I don't trust Schaub staying healthy (he's made of charmin and all things soft). Gates is the top TE and Wells should post similar points by seasons end as Rice. Stay put. Thanx for the help on mine.

I think I have to say no on this deal all around. I think Wells will be the starter sooner rather than later in Arizona and will actually be better than Rice unless this is a PPR league. Olsen from Gates is a big dropoff at TE. I know everybody likes Olsen this year, but Gates has been a top TE for his whole career. I would also stay away from Schaub due to the injuries. He has an ankle injury already. Will that be healed for week 1, who knows. I would stick with what you have. If you don't like Wells, offer him Wells for Rice straight up and see if he bites.

Thanks for replying to my topic.

i would much rather have the Ryan side..Schaub is a sexy pick this year, but he wont play 16 games...the O-LINE isnt good....

Seems sort of split down the middle, with some very in favor and some very against.

Any other opinions?
