Trade Offer - L Washington for Issac Bruce? Handcuff Morgan?

Postby Haypress » Tue Sep 15, 2009 8:39 am

Whats going on football fans, have a quick question for everyone. Right now I have Leon Washington on my bench as well as Josh Morgan. I have been offered Issac Bruce for Leon Washington which would secure a handcuff, but with the way Washington played this weekend, do you think that would be wise? And is there really any point in handcuffing your bench? Doubt it. My other concern is we play 3 Wideouts and 2 RB's and I actually have two other RB's on my bench already, Hightower and J Stewart. Here is a quick lowdown

Starting WR's: A Johnson, E Royal, B Edwards
Starting RB'S: S Slaton, R Rice

BR WR - Josh Morgan
BR RB's - J Stewart, T Hightower, L Washington.

Maybe it would be wise to hold onto L Washington for now and make a trade with him and another RB for a strong WR later? Just trying to get some thoughts going. In a bind after this last weekend as is =P

Wow, no way I'd do that. Not even close

First, you don't need to handcuff your bench players. And almost without exception, you don't need to handcuff WRs at all.

And Leon Washington is much more valuable than Bruce

Good luck

There is no chance I'm making this move. To handcuff a bench player is useless and to do it with a aging wr is totally useless. Stick with Leon, one injury to T. Jones and his numbers will go up and up.
