Unless he throws in something like Brees and Ochocinco, you would be getting screwed.

Slaton is a top 10 draft pick and Favre is a curious gamble at best.

Cadillac for Favre would be more like it.

Favre for Slaton would correctly be vetoed by your league to protect you from yourself.

I would not do that trade. I would offer up something different for Favre. I think Slaton's value is way higher than favre's even though slaton is going to lose goal line carries.

The word out of Houston is tat Slaton will carry the rock between the 20's but that Chros Brown will get all the goal line carries. That means that slaton will lose probably at last 4-6 TD's this year do to Brown. Instead of Slaton racking up 1400 yds and 13 TD's, he'll likely drop to 1300 yds an 8 TD's.

However, I'm not sold o Favre yet. He might ebd up being aroun the 8th - 10th QB in the league but that's not enough for a low end #1 RB/ high end #2 RB in Slaton. If you can get Favre for Caddy then fine, otherwise hold on to Slaton.

BTW, the Steelers face the easiest schedul in the lague this season. The face 9 crappy run defenses and 6 crappy pass defnses. While Big Ben in no gun-slinger and the Steelers have traditionally made their way on offense by pounding the ball up the middle on the ground, Roth sould b a decent QB that doesn't PREVENT your team from winning. He's not going to carry your team week in, week out but you seem to have a good supporting cast aroudhim and overall, your team is pretty sound as it stands right now.

You're smoking if you believe this. Chris Brown is who you think he is....Chris Brown. He won't make it past week 5. LOL!

YOU CAN GET A QB ON WAIVERS BETTER THAN FAVRE AND SLATON IS FINISHING AS A TOP 8 FANTASY RB THIS YEAR... IF YOU TRADE HIM GET SOMEBODY AT LEAST IN THE TOP FEW QB TIERS. Keep my homebody Slaton.
